Jesse - a Christian perspective


Jesse was the father of David, the famous Old Testament king. Jesus is sometimes called the Root of Jesse--a descendant of that kingly line, destined to save Israel from her sins.

    Could you please correct “Jesus is sometimes called the Root of Jesus” to “… Root of Jesse” as this simple typo causes massive confusion in a key point of this brief statement.

    @Andy thanks for catching that! It should be updated.

“If I speak in the tongues of men or of angels, but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. If I give all I possess to the poor and give over my body to hardship that I may boast, but do not have love, I gain nothing.”
- 1 Corinthians 13:1-3
