Life Lessons from Luke: Chapter 14 Kingdom Discipleship

Chapter Review and Quiz.

Luke 14 Summary

• Luke 14 is a study in the contrasts between exaltation and humility. It is also a portrayal of the continued tensions between Jesus and the religious leaders of His time.

• The events of chapter 14 take place in the home of a prominent Pharisee. Expecting the Messiah to arrive and announce His presence with much pomp and regalia, the Pharisees had a difficult time accepting that a lowly carpenter’s son from Nazareth could possibly be the chosen one.

  In this chapter, Jesus had been invited by a well-to-do Pharisee to share a meal on the Sabbath, along with other invited guests. The Pharisees are famous throughout scripture for their antics in trying to trick Jesus into saying something that would dispel the majority’s belief that He was the Messiah.
