The religious leader’s have come after Jesus relentlessly since the triumphal entry and the cleansing of the Temple, but each time Jesus has warded off their attacks and made them look foolish. He was unfazed by their attempt at group intimidation. He avoided the Pharisees political trap to catch Him in treason, and answered what the Sadducees thought was an unanswerable Theological inconsistency in Jesus’ worldview concerning the resurrection. Now the Pharisees are attempting to test Jesus again; this time with a legal question. They expect to get Jesus to ostracize a portion of His support proclaiming one portion of the Law as the greatest when others, undoubtedly would have their differing opinions. Listen as Pastor Matt explains how Jesus once again avoids another trap. Jesus answers this question in an incontrovertible way with which no Jew could possibly argue, and in a way that ultimately points us to the Gospel.
