(Lesson 4329)(12-07-23) Luke 7:30
“But the Pharisees and lawyers rejected the counsel of God against themselves, being not baptized of him.”
Today’s quote relates that the Pharisees and lawers (leadership of the Jews) rejected the divinely inspired message that John brought, which was to prepare the way of the Messiah.
Because they did not believe John, the Pharisees and lawyers also refused the opportunity to participate in the preparatory water baptism that would have been required of all Jews before entering into any religious exercise such as repentance.~
