Truth Exposed:
There are 2 scriptures in Luke 13 that grabbed my attention; I will do one today and one tomorrow. Today’s scripture is Luke 13:31. Throughout the gospels Jesus is always challenging the Pharisees, calling them various names like hypocrites, white-washed tombs, and brood of vipers, so we have come to regard them all as being in direct opposition to Jesus. Yet verse 31 opened my eyes: some Pharisees came to Jesus urging him to leave town because Herod wanted to kill him. Fascinating. First of all, there were a group of Pharisees who actually supported Christ; and secondly, Herod wanted to kill him. HEROD!! The king of Judea. I have never had these 2 things pointed out to me. Incredible! Another reason Pilate gave in to the Jews; Herod was his boss, and no one contradicts Herod. The more you read, the more you learn, the more the plot thickens.
