today’s verse✨
“The next day he saw Jesus coming toward him, and said, “Behold, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!”
John 1:29 ESV
some days you’re not lazy you’re just… tired in a way sleep doesn’t fix
carrying things no one else can see holding it together longer than you thought you could
and then there’s this quiet invitation:
“come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.” — Matthew 11:28
not “prove yourself first” not “fix everything” just… come as you are
maybe rest doesn’t have to be earned

John 19:5 - Bible Verse Meaning and Commentary
Mistranslation by the KJV, Luke 11:28
27 As Jesus was saying these things, a woman called out from the crowd and said to him, “Blessed is the womb that bore you, and the breasts which nursed you!”
King James Version
28 But Jesus said, “Yes, rather, blessed are those who hear the word of God and keep it.”
Eastern Orthodox Version
28 But Jesus said, “Yes, and more than that, blessed are those who hear the word of God and keep it.”
The Greek word menounge (μενοῦνγε), translated above in the text of verse 28 as “yea, more than that,” but rendered inaccurately in the KJV as "yea, rather," is the same word which occurs in Phil. 3:8, where the KJV gives Yea, doubtless, and in Rom. 10:18, where the KJV gives Yes, verily.
The force of menounge is that it corrects the previous statement, not by negating it, but by amplifying it.
Philippians 3:8 “Yes, without a doubt, I consider all things as loss in view of the surpassing value of knowing Christ Jesus, my Lord, for whom I suffered the loss of all things. I consider them as dung, so that I may gain Christ.”
Romans 10:18 “But I say, did they not hear? Yes, most certainly: Their sound went out into all the earth, Their words to the ends of the world.”
Evangelicals and opponents of traditional Christianity often frame this statement of Christ as proof that His Mother was not holy or deserving recognition, that she was merely a vessel with little importance, and this perspective directly results from a mistranslation of Christ’s words.
Indeed, blessed is she who contained the Uncontainable: Christ our God.
Understand that Luke’s Gospel was originally written in Greek, so perhaps we ought to study the original language that the scriptures were written in to have a better understanding of Christ’s life-giving message.
