YOU CAN UNDERSTAND THE BIBLE - HELP IN THE PAST - Conclusion

 Five centuries later, Jesus Christ as involved in a similar educational work. In fact, he was primarily known among the people as a teacher. (John 13:13) He taught large crowds, as well as individuals. On one occasion, he spoke to a great multitude, giving the famous Sermon on the Mount, and "the crowds were astounded at his way of teaching." (Matthew 5:1, 2; 7:28) In the spring of 33 C.E., Jesus spoke to two of his disciples while they were walking along the road toward a village near Jerusalem, "fully opening up ["clearly explaining," footnote) the Scriptures" to them. - LUKE 24:13-15, 27, 32. 


Disciples of Jesus were also instructors of God's Word. On one occasion, an official from Ethiopia was reading a certain passage of the Scriptures. A disciple name Philip approached him and asked: "Do you actually know what you are reading?" The Ethiopian replied: "Really, how could I ever do so unless someone guided me?" Philip then explained the meaning of the passage to him. - ACTS 8:27-35.
