“Jesus, when He began His ministry, was about thirty
years of age...” (St. Luke 3:23)
St. Luke’s is the only gospel to document the age at
which Jesus began His earthly ministry. Interestingly, this age coincided with
when the Jewish priests began their service in the Temple (Numbers 4:47).
Therefore, as the true “High Priest,” Christ fulfills both, the conditions of
the Law and tradition of Holy Scripture as He undertakes His Own ministry of
service and sacrifice.
