“the life of Jesus recapitulates key elements in the earlier story of Israel. For a moment, as Jesus stands on the mountain giving the famous sermon, he is Moses. For a moment, answering his critics about his actions on the sabbath, he is David. For a moment, as he calls and names the twelve disciples, he is perhaps Jacob, bringing the twelve patriarchs into the world. For a moment, healing the sick and raising the dead, he is Elijah or Elisha. And so on. In the transfiguration he actually meets Moses and Elijah.” WorldGivingMomentsStoriesActionJesusNamesHealingKeysMountainElementsSickCriticsIsraelTwelveDiscipleSermonsMosesSabbathJacobElijahTransfigurationHealing The Sick Author:N.
