Bible Study Luke 2:33-35

Luke 2:33-35King James Version (KJV)
33 And Joseph and his mother marvelled at those things which were spoken of him.
34 And Simeon blessed them, and said unto Mary his mother, Behold, this child is set for the fall and rising again of many in Israel; and for a sign which shall be spoken against;
35 (Yea, a sword shall pierce through thy own soul also,) that the thoughts of many hearts may be revealed.

Luke 2:33-35Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)
33 His father and mother were amazed at what was being said about Him. 34 Then Simeon blessed them and told His mother Mary: “Indeed, this child is destined to cause the fall and rise of many in Israel and to be a sign that will be opposed— 35 and a sword will pierce your own soul—that the thoughts of many hearts may be revealed.”

These are my thoughts, please share yours.

33 They knew what was dreamed and what they angel said yet were amazed that it came from this man, God’s plan is not secret we are to share God’s message, the message of the cross, the gospel.

34 Giving blessings was very important tradition even though it does not let us know the blessing, while he blessed Jesus we all are blessed because of Jesus. Israel would later be split between the group that followed Jesus and the group that rejected Him both were born Jews. Even during Christ’s life on earth there was the group that followed Him and then the group that wanted Him dead.

35 The thoughts of people are often evil and ungodly this is why we have a need for Christ because only by Him can we be made righteous.
