- Description:
- Lecture written by Reverend Henry Newton on the meeting of Jesus and Zacchaeus from Luke 19:1-9. Newton breaks down their meeting and dissects what makes each part significant. He describes how the people of the time viewed publicans, or tax collectors, and would have despised Zacchaeus for his profession but that Jesus did not. He also describes how wealth becomes a great obstacle in the way of true faith but that Zacchaeus, though being rich, had had a change of heart and became benevolent which drew Jesus to him.
