<p>With today’s post, we’ve flowed through the first section of this series, in looking at verses that prophesy Jesus’ coming, His arrival, and His early life.</p>



<p>Starting tomorrow, from Day 12-16 we will look at verses that focus on Jesus as The Son.</p>



<p>From Day 17-26, verses will focus on the preeminence of the Son, His works, and Ministry.</p>



<p>Days 27-36, His resurrection, ascension, and return.</p>



<p>Yes, there are more than 30 verses, lol. There’s a postlude.</p>

<p><b><i>Coffman’s Commentaries on the Bible</i></b></p>



<blockquote>
<p>The precocious wisdom of the boy Jesus, and his certain consciousness of his unique relationship to the Father in heaven, were not looked upon by Jesus as sufficient to his earthly mission; he recognized himself still to be a child. The hour of his emergence as the world’s Saviour would be awaited by him until some sure indication of the Father’s will informed him that “his hour” had come. In the meanwhile, he would not disgrace himself as a child prodigy. He manifested the noblest quality of youth, that of loving submission to his earthly parents.</p>

<p><b><a href="https://answersingenesis.org/jesus-christ/christs-obedience-to-the-authority-of-god/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Answers in Genesis: Christ’s Obedience to the Father</a></b><br/>Jesus honors the authority of His Father through complete obedience. A very clear but seldom pondered truth of the New Testament is that Christ’s entire life and ministry were orchestrated by His Father and that Jesus was careful to carry out every detail according to the will of His Father. “Then I said, ‘Behold, I have come . . . to do thy will, O God’” (Hebrews 10:7).</p>
