People who like Answer to question The Early childhood of Jesus - By sister Miria Nakatabazi Questions raised by children
1. Yes, Jesus went to school and learned and studied! And he did very well in his studies, not because he was God, but because he did his homework and his parents helped him in learning! And because he did well, he got an extra week off from classes every month, as did other students who did the same!
2. We imagine he may have sung their prayers and their lessons as they recited them, but we do not know for sure, we just imagine so!
3. Jesus did not intentionally disturb his friends! THEY were disturbed by HIM because they were jealous of his being so popular with the townspeople, as he was such a good help to the other mothers carrying their water jugs, and he was doing so well at school...not the best student, but a very good one!
4. Of course, he would be hungry, but his father and mother found ways to provide food for him and their many other children. But they did not starve as Joseph was always working and providing food for his large family; and they had a cow and chickens.
5. Don't forget that Jesus was only a baby as long as you were a baby! When he was old enough to go out to play, he played with the other children in his area at the games they knew at the time...maybe races? He played with the extra wooden blocks leftover at his father's workshop, and on the rooftop of his house, which was common to many people.
6. As was the custom in Nazareth and in Jewish family at the time, he was educated by his mother (who was an educated woman)for the first full 5 years, after which his father took over his education, including schooling, and learning 3 languages a young boy.
7. Yes, he had angels JUST LIKE YOU and ME! They HELP us to think about God our Father and to help protect us in our life.
