Religion / Re: The Marital Status Of Jesus by MoneyGreen(m): 9:21am On Aug 21, 2016 |
[size=15pt]The Wife Of Jesus[/size] In the fourth Gospel there's and episode related to a marriage which may, in fact, have been Jesus's own. This episode is of course, the wedding at Cana - a familiar enough story. From the account in the Fourth Gospel, the wedding at Cana would seem to be a modest local ceremony - a typical village wedding, whose bride and groom remain anonymous. To this wedding Jesus is specifically 'called' - which is slightly curious perhaps, for he has not really embark on his ministry. More curious still, however, is the fact that his mother 'just happens', as it were, to be present. And her presence would seem to be taken for granted. It is certainly not in any way explained. What is more, who not merely suggest to her son, but in effect orders him, to replenish the wine. She behaves quite as if she were the hostess: 'And when they wanted wine, the mother of Jesus saith unto him, They have no wine, Jesus saith unto her, Woman, what have I to do with thee? Mine hour is not yet come.' (John 2:3-4) But Mary, thoroughly unperturbed, ignores her son's protest: 'His mother saith unto the servants, whatsoever he saith unto you, do it.' (5) And the servants, promptly comply - quite as if they were accustomed to receiving order both from Mary and Jesus. Despite Jesus's ostensible attempt to disown her, Mary prevails; and Jesus thereupon performs his first major miracle, the transformation of water into wine. So far as Gospels is concerned, he has not hitherto displayed his powers; and there's no reason for Mary to assume he possesses them. But even if there were, why should such unique and holy gifts be employed for so banal a purpose? Why should Mary make a request of her son? More important still, why should two 'guests' at a wedding take on themselves the responsibility that, by custom should be reserved for the host? Unless, of course, the wedding at Cana is Jesus's own wedding. In that case, it will indeed be his responsibility to replenish the wine. |
Religion / The Marital Status Of Jesus by MoneyGreen(m): 8:57am On Aug 21, 2016 |
It is not my intention to discredit the gospels. I sought only to window through them. 1) Is there any evidence in the gospels, direct or indirect, to suggest that Jesus was indeed married? There is, of course, no explicit statement to the effect that he was. On the other hand, there's no explicit statement to the effect that he was not. There's complete silence in the gospels concerning the marital status of Jesus.. Such a state of affairs is sufficiently unusual in ancient Jewry to prompt further enquiry. The Gospels state that many of the disciples - Peter, for instance - were married. And at no point does Jesus himself advocate celibacy. On the contrary, in the Gospel of Mathew he declares, 'Have ye not read, that he made the male and female.. For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife: and they twain shall be one flesh?' (19:4-5). Such a statement can hardly be reconciled with an injunction to celibacy. And if Jesus did not preach celibacy, there's no reason either to support he practiced it. According to Judaic custom at the time it was not only usual, but mandatory, that a man be married. |
