Thematic Bible




Who humbles Himself to behold
The things that are in heaven and in the earth?

Who remembered us in our low estate,
For His lovingkindness is everlasting,

For though the Lord is exalted,
Yet He regards the lowly,
But the haughty He knows from afar.

When the Pharisees saw this, they said to His disciples, “Why is your Teacher eating with the tax collectors and sinners?”

“For He has had regard for the humble state of His bondslave;
For behold, from this time on all generations will count me blessed.

*got up from supper, and *laid aside His garments; and taking a towel, He girded Himself.

And when He had said this, He showed them both His hands and His side. The disciples then rejoiced when they saw the Lord.

Then He *said to Thomas, Reach here with your finger, and see My hands; and reach here your hand and put it into My side; and do not be unbelieving, but believing.”
