Synopsis
We were looking at the miracles of Jesus that begin in chapter 8. Matthew joins these miracles together in groups of three to make several points. The first group of three was to define Jesus authority to teach – His miracles are punctuation and proof that He is not some fly by night Rabbi. The second group of three serves to prove His divinity and therefore His right to redefine their understanding of truth – a truth that He says cannot be patched into the Pharisees teachings but must be substituted for them. This third set of miracles I believe serves another function – to draw us to the heart, the mind, and the mission of the Rabbi.
