Exploring the Gospels - a great company publicans and sinners came and sat down with him
Through Yeshua’s 3 fold teaching methodology, his disciples bore witness, to what he taught in real-time, prior to them being given the commission to replicate it for themselves. It is from this understanding that one can discern why great multitudes followed him. His disciples were taught the words of life, the manifesto of the Kingdom, while being given the opportunity to witness their enactment for themselves. It is during this period of teaching and enactment, that those of the religious establishment, who came to bare witness while being unbelievers, their lack of heavenly ordained authority is exposed, and as their pull on the hearts of the people begins to sway, they become increasingly discontent.
