Apokalupto: Jesus tells the Pharisees in the synagogue that He was anointed by the Father.

Luke 4:17 And there was delivered unto him the book of the prophet Esaias.(Isaiah) And when he had opened the book, he found the place where it was written, (Isa 61:1 & isa 42:7)

Luke 4:18 The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel (Good news/Glad tidings) to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised,
Luke 4:19 To preach the acceptable year of the Lord.

Jesus also apparently read Isaiah 42:7 along with it.

Isaiah 42:7 To open the blind eyes, to bring out the prisoners from the prison-


Luke 4:20 And he closed the book, and he gave it again to the minister, and sat down. And the eyes of all them that were in the synagogue were fastened on him.
Luke 4:21 And he began to say unto them, This day is this scripture fulfilled in your ears.

Jesus publically told them that He had been anointed by the Father. I want to show you what happens next because it reflects a truth that still continues today.

Luke 4:22 And all bare him witness, and wondered at the gracious words which proceeded out of his mouth. And they said, Is not this Joseph's son?

Luke 4:23 And he said unto them, Ye will surely say unto me this proverb, Physician, heal thyself: whatsoever we have heard done in Capernaum, do also here in thy country.

Luke 4:24 And he said, Verily I say unto you, No prophet is accepted in his own country.

Luke 4:25 But I tell you of a truth, many widows were in Israel in the days of Elias,(Elijah) when the heaven was shut up three years and six months, when great famine was throughout all the land;

Luke 4:26 But unto none of them was Elias sent, save unto Sarepta, a city of Sidon, unto a woman that was a widow. (The point Jesus is making is that Elijah went to a gentile during that time)

Luke 4:27 And many lepers were in Israel in the time of Eliseus (Elisha) the prophet; and none of them was cleansed, saving Naaman the Syrian.
Luke 4:28 And all they in the synagogue, when they heard these things, were filled with wrath,

Naaman the Syrian was…. Naaman the Syrian…not a Jew, but a gentile. This seems to be where they were angry and filled with wrath because Jesus was bringing up facts about the Tanakh that God sent these 2 prophets to gentiles during that time. It went against their preconceived notions and culture that the gentiles are going to be included.

This is still their attitude today because the word of God is preached to the gentiles now for over 2000 years. Their response doesn’t appear to be angry until after Jesus continues talking about how Elijah and Elisha went to gentiles people, that seemed to be the boiling point at least. Maybe it was both that and the fact that he told them the Father had anointed Him for His ministry of the Gospel?

The Jews were angry for a few other things, one of them because they feared that He was leading them away from “RABBINICAL JUDAISM” as Jesus did not teach the doctrines of men.

He brought the people back to the foundations of the Torah and Tanakh that went contrary to the man made Talmud and the doctrines of RABINICAL JUDAISM. Today I have received no greater PERSONAL attack and bitter resentment and hate and score settling than when I talked about the Talmud being man made not of God but of the opinions of men. So I must be doing something right, echoing Jesus. However ive not talked of the Talmud in quite a while yet the one sided viciousness continues.

Jonah hated the gentiles, he thought he could run away and hide from the Almighty God, but instead his story prophesied of Jesus death, burial and resurrection, and that salvation is to be preached to the gentiles also. Even after the LORD almost killed Jonah to motivate his butt over to Nineveh to preach their doom or salvation depending on if they turned to God or not (Which they did, which again prophesied of the fact that the gentiles would first receive the preaching of the cross), Jonah still was bitter against that gentile city after it was saved from the wrath of God by his own preaching.

Jonah 4:1  But it displeased Jonah exceedingly, and he was very angry.
