CatherineM Posted April 25, 2013 Share Posted April 25, 2013 Rabbinical Judaism as we know it today didn't arise until after the destruction of the Temple, therefore after Jesus' Resurrection and Ascension. We do not know exactly how he received his wisdom. We know that by the time of his presentation in the Temple around his 12th year, he was already amazingly knowledgeable about Scripture. It is possible he was born with it, but Jesus was truly human, and had he been that "aware" from birth, the people in his home town wouldn't have been so surprised at his teaching in the synagog during his ministry. I've always believed that he was a very bright child, that he was taught in the local synagog and by his parents. His special knowledge was in understanding the deeper truths of the scriptures he was being taught. There are wild stories about him having traveled all over the world even studying in Buddhist temples. He didn't need to do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
