Blessings Folk!

Today’s reading:

Jesus’ disciples were curious about something the scribes taught.
Did Elijah have to come first before Messiah?

Jesus affirmed that Elijah is coming and will restore all things.
Jesus also affirmed that Elijah had already come…
  • they did not recognized him
  • they did to him whatever they wished.

The disciples then understood that He spoke of John the Baptist.

Jesus told them that He, the Son of Man, would suffer at their (scribes, et al) hands.

Elijah did come.
Elijah will come.

If they believed, John the Baptist was Elijah.
And yet, yes! Elijah is to come.
