Those who seek a sign, are given the sign of Jonah, three days in the belly of a whale, or in this case, three days in the Tomb. Those who believed without seeking a sign saw many. |

Did Jesus perform many signs and wonders?

You are trying to rewrite scripture: Jesus didn't say or even imply that those who seek a sign are given the sign of Jonah but on the other hand those who seek a sign and believe are given many signs. Jesus gave a genral statement that his entire generation "pre-first century" would not be given any sign. And he sighed deeply in his spirit, and saith, Why doth this generation seek after a sign? verily I say unto you, There shall no sign be given unto this generation.

You asked a question, I answered your question, you did not receive the answer you wanted, so I will take my answer and leave you be. You are not answering the question I asked. You are forcing your opinion of what Jesus said instead of what he actually said. In essence you recreate your own view and put words in his mouth and you only back it up with your own conjecture and bias. Please focus on what the text actually says. Stop dancing around the question Did Jesus perform many signs and wonders to his generation or no signs and wonders to his generation? And he sighed deeply in his spirit, and saith, Why doth this generation seek after a sign? verily I say unto you, There shall no sign be given unto this generation.

| Lisa*Lisa User ID: 21057428 United States02/03/2013 04:26 PM  Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Jesus performed many miracles during His lifetime. He healed the sick, raised the dead, and others. He revealed Himself and His power in front of the people. However, when questioned by His enemies, the religious leaders (Pharisees).......He told them to get lost, beat it, He wasn't going to "prove" anything to them because He knew their hearts were hard. Jesus wasn't stupid.........He knew the deal. This is the answer to your question. Have You Accepted Jesus As Your Savior Yet? What Are You Waiting For?

In some sense your answer satisfies but Jesus used the general ("this" and "generation" )in the original Greek referring to his entire generation resting any apologetic notions that he only meant the Pharisees.
