The Silent years in Jesus’ Life (Part 2)

It is obvious that the period of 18 years which is between 12 to 30 years of Jesus life was not expressly written about, but we are not in total darkness as to what he did or would have done as regards the challenges raised in the Part 1 of this article.

It is worthy of note that Jesus had Godly parents, His mother a virgin accepted a word from God that could cause her public shame, Luke 1: 38. His father Joseph too was adjudged a righteous man, Matt 1:19.

This gave a good foundation to understand the kind of persons that gave him counsel and also the kind of persons he submitted to. ‘Then he went down to Nazareth with them and WAS OBEDIENT TO THEM’. (Luke 2:51a)
