His Teaching Ministry
© John Stevenson, 2011
But there will be no more gloom for her who
was in anguish; in earlier times He treated
the land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali
with contempt, but later on He shall make it
glorious, by the way of the sea, on the other
side of Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles.
2 The people who walk in darkness
Will see a great light;
Those who live in a dark land,
The light will shine on them.
(Isaiah 9:1-2).

Matthew 4:12-13
Now when Jesus heard that John
had been taken into custody, He
withdrew into Galilee; 13 and leaving
Nazareth, He came and settled in
Capernaum, which is by the sea, in the
region of Zebulun and Naphtali.

Mark 1:21-22
They went into Capernaum; and
immediately on the Sabbath He
entered the synagogue and began to
teach. 22 They were amazed at His
teaching; for He was teaching them as
one having authority, and not as the
scribes.
Mark 1:23-24
Just then there was a man in their
synagogue with an unclean spirit; and
he cried out, 24 saying, “What business
do we have with each other, Jesus of
Nazareth? Have You come to destroy
us? I know who You are-- the Holy One
of God!”
Mark 1:25-26
And Jesus rebuked him, saying,
“Be quiet, and come out of him!”
26 Throwing him into convulsions, the
unclean spirit cried out with a loud
voice and came out of him.
Mark 1:27-28
They were all amazed, so that
they debated among themselves,
saying, “What is this? A new teaching
with authority! He commands even the
unclean spirits, and they obey Him.”
28 Immediately the news about Him
spread everywhere into all the
surrounding district of Galilee.

preach and say, “Repent, for the
kingdom of heaven is at hand.”

(4:14-16)
John 3:3
Jesus answered and said to him,
“Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is
born again he cannot see the kingdom
of God.”
Kingdom
of Heaven
Kingdom
of God
“Our Father who is in heaven,
Hallowed be Your name.
10 Your kingdom come.
Your will be done,
On earth as it is in heaven.
11 Give us this day our daily bread.
12 And forgive us our debts, as we also have
forgiven our debtors.
13 And do not lead us into temptation, but
deliver us from evil.
For Yours is the kingdom and the power and
the glory forever. Amen.”
(Matthew 6:9-13).
Matthew 7:21
“Not everyone who says to Me,
‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of
heaven, but he who does the will of My
Father who is in heaven will enter.”
Matthew 7:22-23
“Many will say to Me on that day,
‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in
Your name, and in Your name cast out
demons, and in Your name perform
many miracles?’ 23 And then I will
declare to them, 'I never knew you;
depart from Me, you who practice
lawlessness.’”
What were the Jewish
expectations of a kingdom in
Christ’s day?
In the days of those kings the God
of heaven will set up a kingdom
which will never be destroyed, and
that kingdom will not be left for
another people; it will crush and
put an end to all these kingdoms,
but it will itself endure forever.
(Daniel 2:44 ).
How did Jesus address those
expectations?
Matthew 12:22-23
Then a demon-possessed
man who was blind and mute was
brought to Jesus, and He healed
him, so that the mute man spoke
and saw. 23 All the crowds were
amazed, and were saying, “This
man cannot be the Son of David,
can he?”
Matthew 12:24-25
But when the Pharisees heard
this, they said, “This man casts out
demons only by Beelzebul the ruler
of the demons.” 25 And knowing
their thoughts Jesus said to them,
“Any kingdom divided against itself
is laid waste; and any city or house
divided against itself will not stand.”
Matthew 12:26-27
“If Satan casts out Satan, he is
divided against himself; how then
will his kingdom stand? 27 If I by
Beelzebul cast out demons, by
whom do your sons cast them out?
For this reason they will be your
judges.”
Matthew 12:28-29
“But if I cast out demons by
the Spirit of God, then the kingdom
of God has come upon you. 29 Or
how can anyone enter the strong
man’s house and carry off his
property, unless he first binds the
strong man? And then he will
plunder his house.”
Mark 4:33-34
With many such parables He
was speaking the word to them,
so far as they were able to hear it;
34 and He did not speak to them
without a parable; but He was
explaining everything privately to
His own disciples.
Matthew 13:10-12
And the disciples came and said
to Him, “Why do You speak to them in
parables?” 11 Jesus answered them,
“To you it has been granted to know
the mysteries of the kingdom of
heaven, but to them it has not been
granted. 12 For whoever has, to him
more shall be given, and he will have
an abundance; but whoever does not
have, even what he has shall be taken
away from him.”

Matthew 13:31-32
He presented another parable
to them, saying, “The kingdom of
heaven is like a mustard seed,
which a man took and sowed in his
field; 32 and this is smaller than all
other seeds, but when it is full
grown, it is larger than the garden
plants and becomes a tree, so that
the birds of the air come and nest
in its branches.”
Matthew 13:33
He spoke another parable to
them, “The kingdom of heaven is
like leaven, which a woman took
and hid in three pecks of flour until
it was all leavened.”
Luke 17:20-21
Now having been questioned
by the Pharisees as to when the
kingdom of God was coming, He
answered them and said, “The
kingdom of God is not coming with
signs to be observed; 21 nor will
they say, ‘Look, here it is!’ or,
‘There it is!’ For behold, the
kingdom of God is in your midst.”
Was the ministry of Jesus
directed toward Jews only?
Matthew 10:5-6
These twelve Jesus sent out
after instructing them: “Do not go in
the way of the Gentiles, and do not
enter any city of the Samaritans; 6 but
rather go to the lost sheep of the
house of Israel.”
Mark 7:25-26
But after hearing of Him, a
woman whose little daughter had an
unclean spirit immediately came and
fell at His feet. 26 Now the woman was
a Gentile, of the Syrophoenician race.
And she kept asking Him to cast the
demon out of her daughter.
Mark 7:27-28
And He was saying to her, “Let
the children be satisfied first, for it is
not good to take the children’s bread
and throw it to the dogs.” 28 But she
answered and said to Him, “Yes, Lord,
but even the dogs under the table
feed on the children’s crumbs.”

Mark 7:29-30
And He said to her, “Because of
this answer go; the demon has gone
out of your daughter.” 30 And going
back to her home, she found the child
lying on the bed, the demon having
left.
Matthew 8:5-7
And
when
Jesus
entered
Capernaum, a centurion came to Him,
imploring Him, 6 and saying, “Lord, my
servant is lying paralyzed at home,
fearfully tormented.” 7 Jesus said to
him, “I will come and heal him.”
Matthew 8:8-9
But the centurion said, “Lord, I
am not worthy for You to come under
my roof, but just say the word, and my
servant will be healed. 9 For I also am
a man under authority, with soldiers
under me; and I say to this one, 'Go!'
and he goes, and to another, 'Come!'
and he comes, and to my slave, 'Do
this!' and he does it.”
Matthew 8:10-12
Now when Jesus heard this, He
marveled and said to those who were
following, “Truly I say to you, I have
not found such great faith with anyone
in Israel. 11 I say to you that many will
come from east and west, and recline
at the table with Abraham, Isaac and
Jacob in the kingdom of heaven; 12 but
the sons of the kingdom will be cast
out into the outer darkness; in that
place there will be weeping and
gnashing of teeth.”
Matthew 8:13
And Jesus said to the centurion,
“Go; it shall be done for you as you
have believed.” And the servant was
healed that very moment.
Matthew 21:42-44
Jesus said to them, “Did you
never read in the Scriptures, ‘The
stone which the builders rejected, this
became the Chief Corner stone; this
came about from the Lord, and it is
marvelous in our eyes’? 43 Therefore I
say to you, the kingdom of God will be
taken away from you and given to a
people, producing the fruit of it. 44 And
he who falls on this stone will be
broken to pieces; but on whomever it
falls, it will scatter him like dust.”
Why was the ministry of Jesus
directed toward Jew first?
