Jesus healed people of many different sicknesses and disabilities in many different situations. His healing is sometimes attributed to his words and at other times to his touch.

Answered by BibleQ . January 26, 2011 - 5:36 pm

Jesus was tempted in the wilderness (Matthew 4:1) which is on the western side of the Dead Sea. It is about 30-50km from Jerusalem depending on which part of the wilderness he was in.

Did Jesus have an immortal soul?

Answered by BibleQ . January 26, 2011 - 5:28 pm

Firstly, “soul” just means “living being”, so people do not have souls, they are living souls. See How is “soul” used in the Bible?. Secondly, Jesus died, so he clearly was not immortal, or he did not die. See Was Jesus really dead for three days? “I was dead” (Revelation 1:18) The Lord Jesus was […]

Why does the Bible refer to Jesus as the “lily of the valley”?

Answered by BibleQ . December 16, 2010 - 1:11 pm

The only place where “lily of the valley” occurs in the Bible is in Song of Solomon 2:1: I am a rose of Sharon, a lily of the valleys. Here, Solomon’s lover is using a beautiful flower as a metaphor for herself. Solomon takes up the metaphor in response: As a lily among brambles, so […]

Did Luke, the writer of the Gospel, ever see or know Jesus personally?

Answered by BibleQ . December 13, 2010 - 7:49 am

We can’t be sure, but it is unlikely that Luke saw Jesus personally. There’s no information in the Bible to suggest that he did. However, every Christian claims to know Jesus personally, to some degree (in fact, knowing God and Jesus is a vital part of a Christian’s life: John 17:3). Obviously, when Jesus returns […]

The Temple Institute previously claimed in 1997 and again […]

Did Jesus fulfil the whole Law, or just the Ten Commandments?

Answered by BibleQ . December 5, 2010 - 9:11 am

In Mat. 5:17, Jesus says: Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them. By ‘Law’, Jesus is referring to the whole of the Law of Moses, including the Ten Commandments. We know this is the case because Jesus […]

What did Mary use as diapers for Jesus?

Answered by BibleQ . December 5, 2010 - 4:12 am

The Bible does not tell us what Mary used for diapers, but we can conjecture based upon what we know about baby care in the ancient world. Luke 2:7 says Mary wrapped Jesus in “swaddling cloths”. In ancient times it was common from babies to wrapped in cloth, but with an opening left near the […]

What was the first temptation Jesus faced in the wilderness?

Answered by BibleQ . November 21, 2010 - 12:14 am

It is possible that the first temptation Jesus faced in the wilderness was the temptation to turn stones into bread: both Matthew and Luke have this as the first mentioned temptation in their narratives (see Mat. 4:3 and Luke 4:3). However, the order of the second and third temptations in Matthew and Luke is reversed, […]
