Imagine the scene. Jesus has entered the synagogue, and has read from the Book of Isaiah, a passage He chose. And then He makes the pronouncement & “Today this Scripture is fulfilled in your hearing.” The lame walk, the prisoners are free, the poor have good news proclaimed to them. Here’s the good news. Jesus is talking about us. We are the poor, the lame, the blind, the bound. And He speaks into our lives, and we leap and are free and dance and rejoice. He gave up His heavenly riches to wrap Himself in our rags, that we might turn in our rags for His riches.
