2. JESUS HUNG OUT WITH PEOPLE YOU’D BE UNCOMFORTABLE SPENDING TIME WITH
Every Christmas, many manger scenes all across the world tell the story of His unexpected birth. On Good Fridays, we commemorate His self-sacrifice. Then, on Easter Sundays, the amazing event of His resurrection is commemorated. No other individual has had such a profound influence on human history as Jesus Christ. Nevertheless, between His birth and death, He lived a life filled with extraordinary and, at times, funny exploits. I just read through the four Gospels and discovered some unique amusing facts about His life, which I then combined into this random list of seven things you didn’t know about Jesus Christ.
But, just so you’re aware, you won’t be ready for 4.
- TAX COLLECTORS: Let’s call this organization what it truly is: the Mafia! Beyond the fact that these individuals were Jews who worked for a repressive and violent dictatorship to tax their own people, they were also known to utilize harsh and dictatorial methods to collect those payments from their victims. They frequently gathered more than was necessary and pocketed the excess for themselves, didn’t I mention that? Many of us were very impacted by the narrative of Michael Franzese’s conversion to Christianity, who was a former mafia leader for the Colombo criminal family in New York and later became a Christian. He was, however, not the type of man you’d want to have over for dinner with your family during his pre-Jesus years
- Instead, he was more likely to be a jerk. PROSTITUTES: Despite the fact that this area of business is still in existence today, the closest comparable would be with porn stars. Have you ever hosted a Beth Moore small group Bible study and asked a porn star to attend? DO YOU KNOW THAT ONE OF JESUS’ TWELVE DISCIPLESHIPS WAS NAMED “SIMON THE ZEALOT? ” Do you have any idea what a modern-day label for a Zealot looks like? Terrorist! Zealots were members of a Jewish political organization that emerged in the first century CE that frequently employed violent and aggressive tactics to defeat their invading overlords. “The Sicarii” was their moniker, which literally translates as “dagger men.” No, this isn’t the kind of people you’d feel most comfortable asking along for an all-night prayer lock-in, let’s be honest about it.
COLLECTORS OF TAXES:just Let’s call this gang what they are: the Mafia! Beyond the fact that these individuals were Jews working for an authoritarian and violent dictatorship to tax their own citizens, they were also known to utilize harsh and despotic methods to collect those payments. They frequently gathered more money than was necessary and retained the excess for themselves, didn’t I say that before? In the narrative of Michael Franzese, a former mafia leader for the Colombo criminal family in New York, who came to believe in God, many of us were emotionally impacted.
PROSTITUTES: Porn performers are the closest comparable, despite the fact that this field of business is still in existence today: When was the last time you invited a pornstar to your Beth Moore small group Bible study; or ZEALOTS:Did you know that one of Jesus’ 12 followers was a guy who went by the name of Simon the Zealot?
Terrorist!
“The Sicarii,” which translates as “dagger-men,” was their moniker.
In all seriousness, this isn’t the kind of people you’d want to invite to an all-night prayer retreat, would you?
3. JESUS HAD FRIGHTENINGLY SUPERNATURAL POWERS
Mr. Ricky Bobbyonce began his prayer with the following words: “Dear Lord Baby,.small newborn Jesus, dressed in your golden-fleece diapers and holding out your little, little, plump, balled-up hands.” That prayer elicited a lot of laughter from the audience. Some of us were filled with righteous outrage, since it was obvious that Lord Baby Jesus’ diapers were anything from golden. Huggies SnugDry size-1 diapers were used, and they were brand new! I’m joking, of course. They were only a size 2!
Listen, you can’t get away from the fact that Jesus was out of the ordinary and had an air of other-worldliness about him.
“Uh.this brotha ain’t from around here!” says the year 2015 in a sarcastic tone, but it’s true.
- Matthew, Mark, and Luke’s Gospel all have accounts of Jesus falling asleep in a storm at sea and His terrified disciples having to rouse him up by rousing him from his slumber. They begged Jesus to help because they were terrified that the storm would sink the boat. It was at this point that Christ rose to his feet and exhibited His authority and control over nature by instructing the wind to “stop it off! and be quiet!”, which the wind duly obeyed. It is said in Matthew 8:23-27 that the sea became literally as calm and smooth as glass during this time. That is hardly typical human behavior, to say the least. That, of course, is followed by the entire battle with 5000 demons, dubbed the Legion. Just to give you an idea of how powerful the demon-possessed guy in question was, consider the following: The only way to tie him was with a chain, which no longer worked. Because he had been shackled hand and foot on several occasions, he tore the chains apart and snapped the irons that held his feet together. No one was able to overpower him because they lacked strength.” However, following an inquiry by Jesus during which the demons pleaded with Him to spare their deaths, HePERMITSthem to find a new home among pigs, which they do. Don’t overlook how significant this is and what it speaks about Jesus as a person! Demons must first seek His permission before they are allowed to wander. That’s a significant amount of money! Believe me when I say that I’ve met one. They aren’t taking it easy on those bad leeches
- Though there are multiple tales in which Jesus resurrected the dead back to life, there is one incident in particular that stands out in my memory –the resuscitation of the widow’s deceased son. What a way to ruin someone’s funeral! The funeral home had cleaned up after this woman’s son and prepared him for burial before he was laid to rest in the grave. Have you ever attended a funeral service for a teenager? There must be a lot of people in tears, right? At such a gathering, imagine a middle-aged guy approaching the casket and chatting to the corpse, and the deceased youngster really standing up, searching about for his mother, and reaching out for her in a hug? Is it possible to say, “pandemonium?” Nonetheless, it is how Jesus operates and what an AWESOMELY-GOD HE is
A story of Jesus falling asleep in a storm at sea is told in the Gospels of Matthew, Mark, and Luke. His terrified followers were forced to rouse Him up. They begged Jesus to help because they were afraid the storm would sink the boat. It was at this point that Christ rose to his feet and exhibited His authority and control over nature by instructing the wind to “stop it off! and be silent!,” which the wind duly obeyed and did. The water became literally as calm and smooth as glass, according to Matthew 8:23-27.
As an example of how powerful the demon-possessed guy in question was, consider the following: “.nothing, not even a chain, could tie him any more.” For he had been chained hand and foot on several occasions, but he tore the chains apart and destroyed the irons that held his feet together on several occasions.
- It is important to recognize how significant this is, as well as what it indicates about Jesus.
- The significance of this is enormous.
- They aren’t taking it easy on those bad leeches; though there are multiple instances in which Jesus resurrected the dead back to life, there is one narrative in particular that stands out in my memory –the resuscitation of the widow’s dead son.
- The funeral home had cleaned up the mess left by this woman’s son and prepared him so that he could be buried.
- Isn’t there a lot of people crying?
That is possible. Pandemonium, anyone?! Can you say that? That is nevertheless how Jesus operates, as well as what an AWESOMELY-GOD HE is.
4. JESUS’ FAVORITE FOOD WAS FISH
Okay. This is a bit of a stretch. However, the narratives of His life in the New Testament appear to contain a large number of fish. For starters, He decided to refer to His disciples as “fishermen.” The butchers or the farmers might have been contacted, but noooooooo.why? Because He enjoys eating fish! Two, following His resurrection and prior to His ascension, He gathers His followers for a significant supper, probably the final meal they would ever have. What was on the menu? Yup. FISH! Why do you believe He picked the seafood choice on two consecutive times (Mark 6:31-34 and Mark 8:1-9) while He was feeding crowds numbering in the thousands, aside from those two very strong arguments?
5. JESUS LOVED TO PARTEE!
So, Jesus is attending a wedding reception, correct? The bottle of wine has been depleted. Hospitality is highly regarded in the cultures of the Middle East and North Africa. Running out of wine on a wedding day may be quite uncomfortable for the bride and groom, and it would almost certainly result in the celebration coming to an abrupt halt! Having a sufficient amount of alcohol to become inebriated on has absolutely nothing to do with this. When Jesus learns of this, even though He has made it plain that He is not yet ready to expose Himself to the world, He goes out of His way to ensure that the party continues by magically converting several jars of water into even more delicious wine!
Okay, so you’re still not convinced?
- Luke 14 describes how Jesus accepts an invitation to an after-dinner party with a Pharisee
- He relates a fable about another fantastic celebration while at the same gathering. As he narrates three episodes in Luke 15, they all conclude with a party or some other type of celebration
- Every time someone repents and turns to God, the angels throw a celebration, according to Luke 15:10, which brings us behind the scenes of spiritual reality. Luke 5:29 describes Matthew the Tax Collector throwing a feast for Jesus and inviting all of his outcast acquaintances to attend. As recorded inLuke 19:1-10, Jesus invites Himself over to Zaccheus’ house for an unplanned gathering. Is it true that you’ve read the book of Revelation? On several times, we witness multiethnic throngs of people rejoicing in front of the throne of God. Moreover, I haven’t even mentioned the ultimate party that everyone believes is still yet to take place, The Marriage Feast of the Lamb
When Jesus is invited to a Pharisee’s banquet inLuke 14, he accepts. He narrates a fable about another fantastic celebration at the same gathering. His three stories in Luke 15 all come to a close with a party or some other type of celebration. Every time someone repents and turns to God, the angels throw a celebration, according to Luke 15:10, which brings us behind the scenes of spirituality. Matthew the Tax Collector arranges a feast for Jesus in which all of his outcast friends are invited (Luke 5:29).
Is the Book of Revelation something you’ve read?
The greatest party, which many think is still to come, is the Marriage Feast of the Lamb, which I haven’t even touched on yet.
6. JESUS GOT REALLY MAD A FEW TIMES
In Luke 14, Jesus accepts an invitation to a Pharisee’s banquet. At the same party, He relates a fable about another fantastic party that he attended. His three stories in Luke 15 all come to a close with a party or some other type of celebration; Every time someone repents and turns to God, the angels throw a celebration, according to Luke 15:10, which brings us behind the spiritual scenes. In Luke 5:29, Matthew the Tax Collector throws a feast for Jesus and invites all of his outcast companions.
Is it true that you’ve read the Book of Revelation?
Moreover, I haven’t even mentioned the greatest party that everyone believes is still to come: the Marriage Feast of the Lamb;
7. JESUS IS COMING BACK.not IN A MANGER! (HINT: HE’LL HAVE A SWORD, AN ARMY, …AND A TATTOO)
I had a roommate in college who once asked me a true honest inquiry regarding my beliefs. “Shegz, do you ever get scared that if Jesus returns, the uber-religious mega-Church leaders of today would persecute Him and possibly kill Him as they did back in the day?” the question went something like this. When He returns, not only will He be packing a lot of heat, but He’ll also be ready to kick some serious tail!” I don’t remember exactly what I said in response, but I do recall saying something along the lines of, “When He returns, not only will He be packing a lot of heat, but He’ll also be ready to kick some serious tail!” Thewisest manwho ever lived will undoubtedly agree with that because he once said that there wasa time for every season, a time for every thing under heaven.
There was a time when Jesus came to earth in the guise of a helpless newborn to serve as a lowly servant.
According to the Bible, a time is approaching when the dead in Christ will rise first, accompanied by the voice of the archangel and the sound of God’s trumpet.
It’ll be that time when every soul will see Hisflaming eyes, His flowing white robedipped in bloodon the edges,an army behind Him and a sword of judgmentcoming forth from Him, anda name tattooedon His thigh that says, “King of Kinds and Lord of Lords.” That 2nd return will be followed by a moment whenevery knee WILL bend, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord,to the glory of God the Father.
- So, yes.
- Lift your sight to the horizon!
- Are you hungry?
- Are you fed up with religion?
- If you come away with me, you’ll be able to reclaim your life.
- Take a walk with me and work with me to see how I do things.
- I won’t lay anything hefty or ill-fitting on you.

Jesus’ Favorite Food
What do you imagine God eats? Jesus taught that if we have seen Him, we have seen the Father. So perhaps a more appropriate inquiry would be, what did Jesus eat, and what are His favorite foods, today? Remember that in the Middle East, the norm is that when you enjoy something, you ask for another serving. To do differently, would not be nice. So, whenever Jesus ate food on this world, He undoubtedly took a second helping. Having recently arrived in paradise, some people are organizing a special supper for Jesus to honor him for redeeming them from sin and bringing them to heaven.
They are all gathered around a table and discussing about what Jesus’ favorite cuisine was, and what to make for supper.
“He has a strong preference for fish.
In addition to the young goat, soup, and flat cakes, I set everything on a rock for him to enjoy.
Maybe He will just burn anything we fix.” It was after Daniel and his three buddies had been silently speaking to themselves that Daniel finally said, “The four of us believe that pulse and water would be sufficient.” Anything more than that will be too fancy and probably have too many calories!
“We’re not sure what the word’vegan’ means, or what it would taste like, but we do know what His favorite fruit is – the Tree of Life!” Adam eventually said.
“It had to be His favorite fruit!” says the author.
“I’m aware that everyone of you has had some memorable culinary encounters with Jesus throughout the years.
Abraham interrupted, “See,thereis another vote for curds!” Mary concluded her speech by saying, “Some of you may not be aware of this, but I was His mother and made meals for Him on a daily basis for about 30 years.” I believe this will help you comprehend that I have really had the most experience and know precisely what His favorite foods are for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, which should help you understand.
- Flatbread, olives, raisins, figs, pomegranates, grapes, honey, and almonds are some of his favorite foods, as are olive oil and vinegar.
- What is cottage cheese loaf?
- And I don’t believe I’ve ever seen aWham before.
- Kafree Tea is a caffeine-free alternative to regular tea that we consume in place of regular coffee.
- “I think we’re making a tremendous mistake if we don’t cook a fatted calf with curds,” Abraham said once again.
- What are your plans for the rest of the day?
- I previously said that you enjoyed fatty calves, curds, and flatbread.
The Tree of Life received the majority vote from Adam and Eve.
Pastor Nelson thought that a cottage cheese loaf, Wham slices, and Kafree Tea would be fitting for a holiday gathering.
Gideon, on the other hand, is particularly concerned that anything we serve will be sacrificed as a sweet-smelling offering.
What you supply will not be burnt, and I pledge not to burn it for you.” “I am confident that whatever you provide will not be burned.” “How about you, what is your favorite food?” Pastor Nelson inquired.
My nourishment is carrying out the Father’s will by gathering all of the righteous from the harvest of the earth.
All of them, like the thief on the cross, will be able to learn from their experiences.
Jesus ate lamb, fish, and cheese throughout his time on earth.
What an incredible thought: that the all-powerful Creator—the One who spoke galaxies into existence—would be willing to come to earth and eat dead animals in order to tell and show us what God the Father is like!
Questions: Was Abraham a vegetarian at one point?
Why didn’t AdamEve suggest that they prepare some sort of animal for supper?
No, there will be no death in heaven, and the animals will be our companions in the afterlife.
Should we ever pass judgment on what other people eat?
Every individual must be completely convinced in their own minds because everyone will have to answer to God for the actions they take (Romans 14:5, 12).
Their language, knowledge, food, and relationships are all based on their own personal experience, and they are unable to comprehend the ultimate truth about any topic under discussion.
Throughout history, God has desired for humans to be in the best possible health so that we can live longer lives to testify and work tirelessly for Him.

What Would Jesus Eat? The Science Within the Bible
Dr. Don Colbert and AJ Jacobs, author of The Year of Living Biblically, have conducted extensive research into the Bible in order to uncover nutritional hints concerning Jesus’ diet. What Made His Food So Distinctive? Those who lived during Jesus’ time had predominantly a clean plant-based diet. Among the foods that were widely consumed in that part of the globe were lentils, whole grains, fruits, vegetables, dates, almonds, and fish. Some people even consumed grasshoppers and bugs as appetizers!
- Many people ate the majority of their food uncooked, which provided them with extra health advantages.
- Aside from that, cooking some meals decreases their nutritional worth.
- Because of this, it is likely that Jesus and his disciples consumed only lean red meat or fowl.
- What evidence does science provide to support this?
- They came to the conclusion that humans are better suited for a plant-based diet that contains minimal meat – particularly red meat.
- We have four canine teeth, eight frontal teeth, and numerous molars in total.
- The four canine teeth in our lower jaw are meant to rip flesh apart. Carnivores such as alligators, wolves, and sharks have a higher concentration of this kind of tooth in their jaws. When we bite into fruits and vegetables, our eight frontal teeth, commonly known as incisors, come into play. Molars, on the other hand, are the bulk of our teeth and are positioned in the rear of the mouth. They are employed in the grinding and crushing of plants and seeds.
Our bodies, according to Dr. Colbert, are largely geared for a plant-based diet since we have molars that make up the vast majority of our teeth. Those that consume meat have jaws that are adapted to bite off bits of flesh and have considerably more than four canine teeth. Furthermore, human saliva is alkaline and rich in enzymes, such as amylase, that are specifically designed to break down plants and carbohydrate molecules. Dr. Colbert hypothesizes that this is due to the fact that we are better adapted to digest vegetables rather than meat after reviewing the data and comparing it to those of other animals.
- As a result of his research, Dr.
- When measured in length, our intestines are four times longer than we are tall.
- Because of this, meat is able to travel through the digestive track swiftly and without becoming rotten.
- The consumption of meat with minimal fiber, particularly red meat, increases the likelihood of the meat becoming trapped in our intestines, which can result in constipation or bloating.
- What can I do to eat more in the manner of Jesus?
- They also roasted fish in their ovens.
- Colbert and AJ Jacobs have both collaborated with The Dr.
- Accordingly: Jesus ate his breakfast quite early in the morning so that he would have enough energy and nutrition for the rest of the day’s labor.
- If you ate supper at 6 p.m., you should break your fast the following morning at 6 a.m.
- 2.Spend More Time at Lunch: Many individuals rush through lunch, eating at their desks at work, and wolfing down their meal in a short amount of time.
- 3.At 4 p.m., have a light dinner to wind down: When you should be sleeping, your digestive system should not have to work overtime to keep up with you.
4.Wine and stroll: This is not to be confused with the practice of drinking and dining. A significant role in Jesus’ life and health was played by wine. They accompanied their meals with red wine. It’s beneficial to one’s health. But be careful not to overdo it!

What Did Jesus Eat and Drink?
Sandy Mittelsteadt contributed to this article. The increasing interest in eating and drinking during the impending Holiday Season led me to believe that writing about what Jesus ate and drank during his lifetime would be beneficial. When it came to eating, Jesus would have adhered to the dietary regulations provided down in Leviticus Chapter 11, which he would have done as an observant Jew. Regardless of the restrictions, Jesus’ diet would have been limited by what was available to him at the time of his death.
- He most likely just ate twice a day – in the morning and in the evening – and ate very little else.
- According to Luke 24:41-43, “41.
- And they presented him with a piece of grilled fish as well as a honeycomb.
- And he grabbed it and ate it in front of them.” As a result, we can be certain that Jesus ate fish and honey.
- “9.
- 10.
- Jesus consumed fish caught in the Sea of Galilee.
Peter’s fish (tilapia), have been preserved.
Because big catches could be kept for times of scarcity, fish was frequently dried, smoked, or salted, which alleviated the availability problem by prolonging the shelf life of the product.
It was most likely coarse wholegrain barley bread, which would have gone rancid and moldy if it had not been consumed on a regular basis.
When it came to making bread, the wealthier people would have chosen wheat or millet.
When it comes to the grinding of flour and making bread, the Mishnah (the earliest important recorded collection of Jewish oral traditions) specifies that the wife’s responsibilities include everything from washing and cooking garments to caring for her husband’s children.
These mills were known to leave a residue of grit in the bread they produced.
Indeed, the skeletons of those who lived during the time of Jesus reveal teeth that have been worn down by years of eating stale bread.
Ordinary folks baked once a week; professional bakers in villages baked once every three days; and the only ones who baked more frequently than that were the bakers in cities.
If you’re interested in knowing more, the bread might still go moldy despite proper drying, yet it was still often consumed.
Other delicacies included grapes, raisins, vinegar, and wine (Jesus referred to Himself as “The True Vine,” and a sponge soaked in wine vinegar was presented to Jesus when He was hanging on the cross).
The region grew a variety of fruits and vegetables, including apples, pears, apricots, peaches, melons, and dates, which were all likely consumed by Jesus (a fourth-century mosaic depicts Christ surrounded by pomegranates).
Miqpeh (lentils stew) was a type of stew that consisted mostly of a hardened mass, which is exactly what occurs to cooked lentils when left to cool.
Garlic was frequently used in the preparation of miqpeh, and cabbage was also used.
For flavorings, the Bible mentions mustard (remember Jesus’ tale of the mustard seed in Mark 4:31), as well as dill, cumin, cinnamon, mint, and salt.
Jesus most likely drank water, wine, and milk while on the cross (from goats and sheep).
Besides almonds and pistachio nuts, Jesus would have enjoyed baked cakes prepared with honey, dates, and raisins for dessert. In summation, as you can see, Jesus ate a lot of fresh food that was in season at the time.
Enjoy Jesus’s Favorite Meal
The food is the most enjoyable aspect of Christmas. But I’m not referring about the meal that usually comes to mind when someone hears the phrase.
Eating in Samaria
Earlier in John chapter 4, Jesus and his followers had stopped for meals at the Samaritan town of Sychar to replenish their supplies. The disciples, on the other hand, were completely unaware that their conception of eating differed from Jesus’ conception of food. In part, this is due to the fact that the disciples’ assumptions about why they were in Samaria did not line up with Jesus’ plans for their visit. They considered Samaria to be a “fly-over” zone, a location that had to be passed through in order to go to where they wanted to go.
- However, the Samaritans did have food, and the disciples were starving, so they were content to halt at Sychar for a loaf of fresh bread.
- Samaria was a field that was ready to be harvested.
- And he would be enjoying his favorite supper as a result of his actions.
- And when they presented him with bread, they were even more astonished to discover that Jesus had already eaten it, making their confusion even worse.
- It only became more perplexing when he stated that his meal was to be consumed in accordance with the will of his Father (John 4:34).
- That is, it wasn’t until Jesus urged them to lift up their eyes and look at the harvest (John 4:35), and they turned to see a large group of Samaritans heading their way, that they realized what was going on.
- There was a white harvest in the bleak land of Samaria, where no one had anticipated it.
Don’t Miss the Best Christmas Meal
What does any of this have to do with you or your holiday celebrations? This is all there is to it. You may believe you understand why you are where you are this Christmas season. It’s possible that you’re pleased with it, or that you’re upset or frustrated with it. This might be because you’re stranded in a location you don’t want to be, or it could be that you believe you’re simply passing through on your way to where you want to go. Whatever the case, it’s likely that Jesus’s motivations for placing you in your current location are completely different from what you believe them to be.
- When we least expect it, Jesus provides us with abundant crops in unexpected places.
- Raise your gaze upward.
- It’s possible that you’re standing in a field where God has been spreading gospel seeds utterly unseen and unknown to you — and he’s calling you to reap the harvest.
- There’s nothing quite like it in terms of flavor.
It was a favorite dinner of Jesus’s. God has a plan for you just where you are right now. Keep this feast in mind no matter what else you plan to accomplish throughout the holiday season. Every other Christmas dinner and dessert will taste significantly better as a result of this one.
What did Jesus eat? Coffee and chocolate were not on the menu
The Lord’s Prayer, which is presented in somewhat different forms in the Gospels of Matthew and Luke, is arguably the most well-known prayer in the world today. However, the lines “Give us this day our daily food” are included in this prayer, which is rather remarkable. Exactly what this bread is made of is up for discussion. According to the Gospel of John, “I am the Bread of Life,” thus it’s possible that this is a reference to Jesus himself. Most likely, it is referring to the actual bread, which has been a staple diet in the Middle East since the beginning of civilisation.
Perhaps all of these readings are correct; but, if the latter is correct, what did Jesus consume on a regular basis?
Although Jewish law authorized the use of bread produced from wheat, other grains such as barley, oats, rye, and spelt were also permitted.
In the Hebrew language, the word for wine is yayin, which originates from the term for fermentation, and in the New Testament, the word for wine is oinos, which is translated as vinum in Latin.
According to one historian, the average male in the Middle East consumed roughly a litre of wine in the course of a day, although the New Testament warns against overindulging in alcohol on multiple occasions.
His appearance to the disciples after his resurrection is depicted as him eating fish in order to demonstrate that he was genuine, and not some ghost.
Jesus ate figs, as evidenced by the fact that, on his trip to Jerusalem, he grabbed for a fig tree, despite the fact that it was not fig season at that time.
As a result, we may be pretty certain that Jesus followed the dietary regulations of ancient Israel, and we can identify foods that he would not have consumed, such as pork, shellfish, reptiles, and carrion-eating animals.
Anything native to the New World, such as maize corn, pumpkins, peppers, tomatoes, potatoes, and chocolate, would have been inaccessible to Jesus.
To live a life without coffee or chocolate would have been a life of extreme asceticism in my opinion.
The closest thing Hebrew has to a term for beer is sekhar, which may be used to refer to beer or a variety of other powerful alcoholic beverages.
However, it is almost probable that Jesus did not receive that reward following the Sermon on the Mount.
People in the ancient Near East ate a lot of plant-based meals rather than meat, and this was especially true in Egypt.
Various grains were frequently crushed and cooked to create a porridge-like consistency.
The Persians brought rice to the inhabitants of Judea during the era after the post-exilic restoration of the Jewish temple in the fifth century B.C., during which time the Jewish temple was reconstructed.
There are several nuts mentioned in the Hebrew Bible, including almonds, walnuts, and pistachios, all of which supplied protein, and it is likely that Jesus was familiar with these foods.
Jesus’ diet most probably included dried fruits such as raisins and dates, although they do not have a very long shelf life.
In addition to the olive and the fig, apricots, dates, and the quince were cultivated in the time of Jesus Christ.
However, there is a term for apples in modern Hebrew.
Fruits also had the benefit of being able to be cooked down to form a syrup, which was useful for preserving them during storage.
In any case, we might speculate that Jesus ate relatively little meat because it was a more expensive item at the time.
Because a lamb shank was part of the rite and the Passover lambs were murdered at the same time, it is often considered that Jesus’ Last Supper contained lamb.
The Passover lamb should be cooked according to the instructions in the Torah.
The Jews of Jesus’ day raised a variety of birds, including not just chickens but also doves, turtledoves, ducks, and geese, among other things.
It has been speculated by archaeologists that individuals living during this historical period and in that location could only have been able to have meat three or four times a year, and that these were only on special occasions.
Many people in Jesus’ day were famished because of a scarcity of food.
It is possible that if the first 12 disciples had seen our modern supermarkets, which were stocked with food, they would have believed they had died and gone to heaven. Jesus, on the other hand, would not have been under any such delusions.
