What is His worth?

The journey with Jesus isn’t always easy. It teaches us that struggles and trials can shape our character, strengthen our faith, and draw us closer to God.

Jesus had been traveling and performing miracles, which gained him widespread attention. This passage is set in Capernaum, a city on the northern shore of the Sea of Galilee, which became something of a home base for Jesus’ ministry. After performing miracles and teaching in other towns, he returns to Capernaum, possibly to rest or spend time with his close followers. However, word spreads quickly that he is back, and people gather in large numbers, filling the house and even blocking the doorway, all eager to hear him teach.

“In Matthew 12:42, Jesus declares, ‘The queen of the south will rise at the judgment with this generation and condemn it; for she came from the ends of the earth to listen to Solomon’s wisdom, and now something greater than Solomon is here.’ This profound statement not only underscores the extraordinary wisdom of Jesus but also serves as a challenge to His contemporaries. While the queen traveled great distances to seek out Solomon’s renowned understanding, Jesus, the embodiment of divine wisdom, stood among them, calling them to recognize the greater truth that He represented.”
