Summary: | Luke 4:18–19 is often referred to as the inaugural address of Jesus and the beginning of his public ministry. These verses are quoted from Isa 61:1–2. “Freedom” is a poignant theme in the passage and indeed the total ministry of Jesus. He came to “set the captives free.” The experience mentioned in John 4 is illustrative of our emancipation. Jesus set this woman free from the bondage to sin, from the intimidation of a manipulative society, from the imposition of sexism, from social control, from religious bigotry and from a confused understanding and relationship with God. She was set free to be herself and to rise to full freedom in Christ. |
