Haiku of entrapment
Questions to test him.
Two to cause him to stumble,
one that shuts them up.
Sadducees bowl up
marriage and resurrection.
He hits them for six!
He quotes the scriptures,
affirming resurrection:
God rules the living!
A lawyer enquires:
Which commandment is greatest?
The answer is Love.
For God and neighbour,
love is the first requirement.
All else is detail.
Asks his own question:
How is David’s son the Christ?
They have no answer.
Questions that challenge,
call, confuse and confound. We
ask, and we answer.
