Reading the Bible in Historical Sequence Part 10

DAY 5 OF 31

AD 31 John the Baptist is arrested. Jesus retreats to Galilee and on the way witnesses to Samaritan villagers. He declares the Kingdom of God is at hand. In Capernaum a royal official requests healing for his son. At Jesus’ second Passover in Jerusalem He gets death threats for saying God is His Father.

Note John 4:4f: Samaritans were descendants of intermarriages between Israel’s exiles in Assyria and foreigners whom Assyria transmigrated into Samaria in 669 BC (2 Kings 17:24). They were referred to as ‘the enemies of Judah’ in Ezra 4:1.
