0:00.0	Hey Bible readers, I'm Tara Lee Cobble and I'm your host for the Bible Recap.
0:07.0	Today we drop in on Matthew and Mark. In Matthew 8 a leper approaches Jesus and kneels at his feet.
0:19.0	This in itself is shocking because most lepers wouldn't dare approach people.
0:23.0	They have to live outside the city and they have to yell unclean
0:25.9	when anyone is approaching them.
0:27.4	The fact that Jesus is this approachable
0:29.3	shows us his great kindness and humility.
0:32.1	Even the least lovely feel like they can come to him.
0:34.8	The leper also demonstrates great humility.

1:04.3	in John 4 was allowed to tell everyone about him. Does he want to be known or not? Why does he keep changing
1:09.5	his mind? There are a few things that seem to be at play here. First, you may notice as we keep reading that the times when he tells people to spread the news about him happen when he's in the Gentile regions or dealing with non-Jews, like the woman at the well. But with the Jews,
1:25.3	there's a danger in having them know he's the Messiah, because not only will they want to
1:29.6	crown him as king and expect him to overthrow their Roman oppressors, but then Rome will want to
1:34.2	kill him or shut him down.
1:36.3	So in order to preserve the specific timing God has planned for his revealing and his death,
