Why is jesus considered a rabbi when he did not know how to write?

So he could walk on water and raise the dead, but not write?

Do you remember that when he was TWELVE the SCRIBES and LAWYERS were amazed at his learning?

Please read Luke 2:42-49...

What I don't understand is how you got him to fit in the little mental box you have for him. He's GOD, remember?

Edit: John 21:25 And there are also many other things which Jesus did, the which, if they should be written every one, I suppose that even the world itself could not contain the books that should be written. Amen.

Now explain that...

writing with a finger is different then writing with an old pens of those times? You have indeed a small box for the Christ. Sorry, my Jesus doesn't fit in there. My Jesus is God, who is Omnipotent, among other things, like being Lord and Master of the Universe, Creator of all things.

answer: Only Christian claim he was a rabbi.

to correct others: the term "rabbi" was NOT used before "the time of Jesus"

the woman accused of adultery was never named - it's an assumption by Christians that link Mary Magdalene with the incident. Not surprising that she isn't named since NOTHING was written for decades after the supposed events.

Of course Jesus knew how to write.

In fact HE is writing while people wants to persecute Mary Magdalene for being a whore.......and he said ''anyone who did not sin, catch the first stone'',so no one ever did, because everyone is a sinner.

By the way Jesus wrote my name since I was still in my mothers womb.

I wouldn't be here if Jesus did not write my name first in his book.

John 8:6 This they said, tempting him, that they might have to accuse him. But Jesus stooped down, and with his finger WROTE on the ground, as though he heard them not.

Wow thank goodness somebody cleared up that 40 days and 40 nights element. that's plenty greater available than one hundred days huh? Their is a few evidence that quite a few human beings interior the bible existed (present in different records from the term of the 1st century advert) yet there's a extensive distinction between proving I lived interior the year 2009 and proving that I single handedly stopped the desacration of woman liberty via 5000 Klan biker rapists. thinking the undeniable fact that their is reams of records from different cultures (Mesopotamia, babylon, crete, egyptian, etc...) that have thoughts approximately saviors that have been a million. born of a virgin, 2. tempted interior the desert via an evil being, 3. divine being who replaced into the two the son of god and god himself, 4. killed and rose from the ineffective 3 days later blah blah blah and those thoughts existed everywhere from one hundred to one thousand years before "jesus" landed on the wacky and wild israeli logician scene, i think of you will could desire to choose no rely if or no longer you want to apply reason (the skill to apply logic and information to realize a end) or faith (the perception of something with out substantial information or in spite of opposite information) It in no way ceases to amaze me while somebody makes use of the term "he/she is a individual of religion" as though it replaced right into a physically powerful element.

Most Jewish men were instructed on how to read and write Hebrew! Jesus was no exception!

The Bible teaches that Jesus read from the Isaiah scroll in synagogue. If he could read, then (obviously) he could also write.

The designation “Rabbi” was used in a de facto sense as “teacher.” (Joh 1:38) But among the Jews, shortly before the birth of Jesus, it came to be used also as a form of address and as a title of respect and honor meaning “my great one; my excellent one.”

The title was demanded by some of the learned men, scribes, teachers of the Law. They delighted to be called “Rabbi” as an honorary title. Jesus Christ condemned such title-seeking and forbade his followers to be called “Rabbi,” as he was their teacher.

In the Bible the term “Rabbi” is used only in the Christian Greek Scriptures. It is employed 12 times in connection with Jesus, in the de facto sense of “Teacher”: twice by Peter , once by two disciples of John, once by Nathanael, once by Nicodemus, three times by disciples of Jesus whose names are not specified, once by the crowds , and two times by Judas (one instance is repeated).

Jesus is addressed by Mary Magdalene as “Rabboni” (My Teacher), also by a blind man whom he healed.

John the Baptizer is once addressed as Rabbi. Joh 3:26.

Verse 15 of John chapter 7 says: “Therefore the Jews fell to wondering, saying: ‘How does this man have a knowledge of letters, when he has not studied at the schools?’” Why were they puzzled? Jesus had not attended any of the rabbinic schools, so he was uneducated or so they thought! Yet, Jesus could locate and read sections in the Sacred Writings with ease.

They wanted to know by whom Jesus was educated, and he told them plainly that his education was from God!

Jesus accused both groups of making the word of God invalid because of their tradition and teaching “commands of men as doctrines.” (Matthew 15:1, 6, 9) Small wonder that neither Jesus nor most of his disciples were educated in the rabbinical schools.

And being the Son of God, Jesus most surely could write, since He was the most intelligence person that ever lived on the Earth.

He did know how to write. He is God, so there is nothing He cannot do.

Also, John 8:6 says Jesus wrote on the ground.

one becomes a rabbi at 30, at 12 he was communicating with the elders in the temple, and they were amazed at his knowledge , his mother home schooled him well
