Sunday School Times Luke 2:40 And the child grew, and waxed strong in spirit, filled with wisdom: and the grace of God was on him. When one sees a river flowing deep and strong through a parched country, as the Ganges in India, he becomes desirous of knowing something about its source. He follows it up, and finds that it comes from the cold hills of the north, issuing it may be, in full flood from beneath a glacier. So the source of Jesus' growth in spirit and wisdom is here told — "The grace of God was upon Him." (Sunday School Times.) Parallel Verses KJV: And the child grew, and waxed strong in spirit, filled with wisdom: and the grace of God was upon him. |
