Question

Luke portrays this time in Jesus’ ministry as very successful, but he starts giving hints of things to come. For instance, after the healing of the boy, Jesus seems to randomly say that he is going to be betrayed. Why would Jesus have picked that time to say such a thing? I think Jesus picked this time to warn the disciples about what was going to happen.

Answer 1

Perhaps he had healed the boy the town’s people would think that he didn’t heal him,so they could do something and or try to hurt Jesus.
