  • Bonita Jones on Luke 2 - 3 years ago
    At what age did *JESUS* began to preach?
  • S Spencer - In Reply on Luke 2 - 3 years ago
    Hi Bonita,

    I agree with GiGi, I believe Jesus was 30 yrs old

    Luke 3:22-23. And the Holy Ghost descended in a bodily shape like a dove upon him, and a voice came from heaven, which said, Thou art my beloved Son; in thee I am well pleased.

    ( AND JESUS HIMSELF BEGAN TO BE ABOUT THIRTY YEARS OF AGE, ) being (as was supposed) the son of Joseph, which was the son of Heli,

    It may have something to do with serving as a priest.

    Numbers 4:3-4.

    God bless.
  • GiGi again - In Reply on Luke 2 - 3 years ago
    Spencer, I never thought about that about a priest beginning is service at 30. I know in many instances in the old testament that men would take a wife at thirty or so (Iaaac and Jacob)
  • GiGi - In Reply on Luke 2 - 3 years ago
    It is often stated that Jesus was 30 when He began preaching the news of the kingdom after His baptism. And He preached for 3 years or so before He was crucified. I am not sure of the exact age or times, but it was probably within this range give or take a few years either way. He also was in the temple at age twelve and spoke about what was read in the Torah. The teachers marveled at what He said, since it was so wise and mature.
