Isaiah 9:2
King James Version
2 The people that walked in darkness
have seen a great light:
they that dwell in the land of the shadow of death,
upon them hath the light shined.
SPIRIT gave me an set of verses to use for this blog.
They were mostly by evangelist Luke.
Now, we can use it for this post.
What occurred at Galilee?
What does it say about JESUS?
These verses tell us more:
Luke 2:4-7
King James Version
4 And Joseph also went up from Galilee,
out of the city of Nazareth,
into Judaea,
unto the city of David, which is called Bethlehem;
(because he was of the house and lineage of David:)
5 To be taxed with Mary his espoused wife,
being great with child.
6 And so it was, that, while they were there,
the days were accomplished
that she should be delivered.
7 And she brought forth her firstborn son,
and wrapped him in swaddling clothes,
and laid him in a manger;
because there was no room for them
in the inn.
Luke 3:1
King James Version
3 Now in the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius Caesar,
Pontius Pilate being governor of Judaea,
and Herod being tetrarch of Galilee,
and his brother Philip tetrarch of Ituraea
and of the region of Trachonitis,
and Lysanias the tetrarch of Abilene,
Luke 4:13-15
King James Version
13 And when the devil had ended all the temptation,
he departed from him for a season.
14 And Jesus returned
in the power of the Spirit into Galilee:
and there went out a fame of him
through all the region round about.
15 And he taught in their synagogues,
being glorified of all.
Luke 4:28-32
King James Version
28 And all they in the synagogue,
when they heard these things,
were filled with wrath,
29 And rose up, and thrust him out of the city,
and led him unto the brow of the hill
whereon their city was built,
that they might cast him down headlong.
30 But he passing through the midst of them
went his way,
31 And came down to Capernaum,
a city of Galilee,
and taught them on the sabbath days.
32 And they were astonished at his doctrine:
for his word was with power.
Luke 5:15-17
King James Version
15 But so much the more went there a fame abroad of him:
and great multitudes came together to hear,
and to be healed by him of their infirmities.
16 And he withdrew himself into the wilderness,
and prayed.
17 And it came to pass on a certain day,
as he was teaching,
that there were Pharisees and doctors of the law
sitting by, which were come out
of every town of Galilee,
and Judaea, and Jerusalem:
and the power of the Lord
was present to heal them.
Luke 8:22-25
King James Version
22 Now it came to pass on a certain day,
that he went into a ship with his disciples:
and he said unto them,
Let us go over unto the other side of the lake.
And they launched forth.
23 But as they sailed he fell asleep:
and there came down a storm of wind on the lake;
and they were filled with water,
and were in jeopardy.
24 And they came to him,
and awoke him,
saying,
Master, master, we perish.
Then he arose,
and rebuked the wind and the raging of the water:
and they ceased, and there was a calm.
25 And he said unto them,
Where is your faith?
And they being afraid wondered,
saying one to another,
What manner of man is this!
for he commandeth even the winds and water,
and they obey him.
Luke 8:26-27
King James Version
26 And they arrived at the country of the Gadarenes,
which is over against Galilee.
27 And when he went forth to land,
there met him out of the city a certain man,
which had devils long time,
and ware no clothes,
neither abode in any house,
but in the tombs.
Luke 17:11-12
King James Version
11 And it came to pass,
as he went to Jerusalem,
that he passed through the midst
of Samaria and Galilee.
12 And as he entered into a certain village,
there met him ten men that were lepers,
which stood afar off:
Luke 23:4-5
King James Version
4 Then said Pilate to the chief priests
and to the people,
I find no fault in this man.
5 And they were the more fierce,
saying,
He stirreth up the people,
teaching throughout all Jewry,
beginning from Galilee to this place.
Luke 23:6-9
King James Version
6 When Pilate heard of Galilee,
he asked whether the man were a Galilaean.
7 And as soon as he knew
that he belonged unto Herod's jurisdiction*,
he sent him to Herod,
who himself also was at Jerusalem at that time.
8 And when Herod saw Jesus,
he was exceeding glad:
for he was desirous to see him of a long season,
because he had heard many things of him;
and he hoped to have seen some miracle done by him.
9 Then he questioned with him in many words;
but he answered him nothing.
Luke 23:46-49
King James Version
46 And when Jesus had cried with a loud voice,
he said,
Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit:
and having said thus, he gave up the ghost.
47 Now when the centurion saw what was done,
he glorified God,
saying,
Certainly this was a righteous man.
48 And all the people that came together to that sight,
beholding the things which were done,
smote their breasts, and returned.
49 And all his acquaintance,
and the women that followed him from Galilee,
stood afar off, beholding these things.
Luke 23:54-56
King James Version
54 And that day was the preparation,
and the sabbath drew on.
55 And the women also,
which came with him from Galilee, followed after,
and beheld the sepulchre,
and how his body was laid.
56 And they returned,
and prepared spices and ointments;
and rested the sabbath day
according to the commandment.
Now it's time to know about the LORD's ministry in Galilee.
