What were the instructions Jesus gave to his disciples when he was commissioning them?
- They were to go out and exorcise demons.
- Heal the sick.
- Preach the word of God.
- They were instructed not to carry anything for the journey. This was a sign that they had to
abandon earthly things for the Kingdom of God.
- He also told them to stay in a house where they were received. Here they would be taken care
of and provided for.
- And whenever they were not received they were to shake off the dust from their feet as a
testimony against them. This showed that the apostles had no association with those who
rejected the Good News.
The disciples left and travelled through all the villages ,preaching the Good News
- The preaching and healing by the apostles disturbed Herode. He was confused because some
thought that Elijah or one of the prophets of the Old Testament had appeared. Others thought
that may be John the Baptist had come back to life. He wished to meet Jesus in person.
