Jesus spoke to them and they passed down His message to us.



Lutero:

Who was Jesus talking to? It was not to you..it was to those PRESENT with him ...good hermeneutics takes into account the audience.. in this case Jesus was speaking ONLY to the apostles that would soon have the indwelling Holy Spirit on Pentecost..
Have you not read in Scripture?

John 17:20

King James Version (KJV)

20 Neither pray I for these alone, but for them also which shall believe on me through their word;

Jesus spoke to them and they passed down His message to us. That is the essence of Tradition.

Sincerely,

De Maria
