Matthew 2:13-23 - Special Delivery
TOPIC
An angel’s urgent warning saves the newborn Jesus from King Herod’s murderous plot, revealing Christ as the prophesied Deliverer who overcame evil.
SCRIPTURE REFERENCES
Matthew 2:13-23 Exodus 4:19 Deuteronomy 18:15 Psalm 22:6 Psalm 33:18-19 Proverbs 15:3 Isaiah 11:1 Isaiah 53:3 Hosea 11:1 John 6:63
FROM THE MESSAGE
“You see, the name Nazareth means a sprout or a branch. And in Isaiah 11:1 we read, “Then a shoot will grow from the stump of Jesse, and a branch from his roots will bear fruit.” This passage prophesies that The Branch would rise from David’s line in obscurity and low estate, but that His righteous reign would spread across the whole world forever. There is a play on words here, because the Hebrew word for “branch” sounds like the word Nazareth.So, sure. Call Him the Nazarene. They meant it for reviling, but at the same time it revealed that Jesus is the Deliverer, the Messiah, the Savior, the King, the gift of God sent to us that we might be rescued from sin and death and walk with God day by day until we are brought to live in His forever Kingdom.”
