(11:5-10) I almost tried this once as an experiment with some of my friends, but I kind of chickened out. I wasn't really sure that I could pull it off. Even the thought of it still brings a small (and mischievous) smile to my face.
(11:11-13) Jesus makes use of a kal v'homer (lit. "light and heavy") statement here, characterized in the first century by the phrases: "If...then how much more...?" This one sticks out to me especially as a father now. Of course I want the best for Caleb and Josiah. If that's true, then how much more does God want the best for us, His children?
(11:27-28) Interesting interplay between Jesus and the crowd.
