Contemplative Bible Reading

Mark 11:12 (New Living Translation)

The next morning as they were leaving Bethany, Jesus was hungry.

Jesus felt hunger in the earthly body that he occupied. I extend that to He would feel tired, hot, thirsty, and other human physical feelings.

Go back to the forty days of fasting in the desert before being tempted by Satan. Forty days is a long time to go without eating, but it is possible for a person to do that and not die. That person, however, would be V E R Y hungry, and quite susceptible to temptation.

My problems? Uh, er, well, never mind.
