(a scripted podcast) Luke 2: 40-52 ______________________ The first verse: Τὸ δὲ παιδίον ηὔξανεν καὶ ἐκραταιοῦτο πληρούμενον σοφίᾳ, καὶ χάρις Θεοῦ ἦν ἐπ’ αὐτό. [To de paidion euxanen kai ekrataiouto pleroumenon sophia kai charis Theou en ep' auto.] So the young child matured and became full of vigor, replete with wisdom, and the well-faring of God was upon him. ______________________ And having completed the days [of the Passover], and setting out to return [to Bethlehem], Jesus, just a boy, remained behind in Jerusalem, and his parents didn't know.

And [Jesus] said to them, "Why were you seeking me? Weren't you aware that in the affairs of my Father it obliges me to be?" Jesus' reply: Τί ὅτι ἐζητεῖτέ με; οὐκ ᾔδειτε ὅτι ἐν τοῖς τοῦ Πατρός μου δεῖ εἶναί με; (Ti hoti ezeteite me ouk edeite hoti en tois tou Patros mou dei einai me.) _________________________ But they did not put together what this saying that he said to them meant. But he came down and accompanied them to Nazareth, and was obedient to them. And his mother kept close all these sayings in her heart. So Jesus drove forward in such wisdom and maturity and well-faring before God and men. ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yDVVzBuAZkY
