The final parable in our summer series appears in Luke 18:1-8. Like last week’s parable, the Parable of the Unjust Judge focuses on the period between Jesus’ first and second comings. It too tells us what to do as we await his return, especially if he seems to delay, and especially if we are suffering unjustly. Things really will turn out well in the end as we persevere in faith until the end.
As opposition grew toward Jesus, he anticipated that it would reach his followers as well and prepare them for how to live.
The LORD uses leaders to deal with threats to the welfare of his people, and he is the God who delivers them.
The rejection of Jesus by many Israelites is God‘s plan for the salvation of the nations, and even of Israel itself.
