"Jesus Begins His Ministry" {Matt4:12-17}
* Intro: Matt sets up His ministry via first 4 chap. Birth/lineage then baptism then temptation. Then?
* Timing
- Probably up to yr twixt wilderness and ministry
- Interim events: Cana wedding, Jesus & Nic, Sam chick, Luke4 Naz synagogue teaching
* Place
- Why Galilee?
- Small (manageable travel), densely populated (efficient impact), openness to new ideas (willing audience), full of Gents
* Message
- Matt points out proph-filling more often than other G's
- Light to darkness: "KoH is near"
