Jesus’ opponents are too relaxed about marriage, and his followers are too strict with children
—
Jewish leaders (Pharisees) try to trap Jesus by asking about marriage. He surprises these Bible experts by quoting the Bible!
Even Jesus’ followers, also familiar with the Bible, are surprised by what Jesus says. And then they assume he doesn’t care about little children.
What do you think of Jesus’ view of marriage? How could having a child-like attitude help all of us accept Jesus’ teachings?
