Topic: He Left Judaea

John 4:1,3, “When the Lord knew how the Pharisees had heard that Jesus made and baptized disciples more than John…He left Judaea.”

Text: MT. 4:12; MK. 1:14; JN. 4:1-3

This is an exciting passage of scripture. On the surface, it might look like Jesus was running from a fight. Now that John the Baptist was out of the way (he had been imprisoned), it was inevitable that the Pharisees would attack Jesus.

One thing we can be sure of is that there was no fear on our Lord’s part. On other occasions, He demonstrated that no one could do anything to Him if He didn’t allow it (Lk. 4:29-30; Jn. 7:30, 44-46; 8:20, 59; 10:39).

Therefore, we can assume that Jesus left because He knew it was God’s will. On another occasion, when His half brothers dared Him to go to Jerusalem and confront the Pharisees, He told them that it wasn’t time for Him to go yet (Jn. 7:1-6). A lesser man would have been intimidated into showing His superiority.

Jesus was the most selfless person who ever walked the earth. He did not come to earth for Himself but for us. If He would have defended Himself, we would have never been saved. Some indeed interpreted the humility of Jesus to be a weakness, but in truth, it was love. Not love for Himself, but love for a dying world of which He was the only hope.
