Oh maaaaan do I love my brother John the Baptist. He was blunt, and no fear, and didn’t care what others thought cause he knew wer he was going, and knew his true duty, and didn’t care who anyone else was either. He went alllll out.
John says, I came to path the way..... I love how humble John the baptizer was, the way, the truth 🙌 and the life, eternal life through our Savior Jesus Christ 🙏
Excellent video. There are more questions: 1. Why did John have disciples at all? Dig deeper? 2. The Esseni were not just one group; they were many. They differed in beliefs, practice, and custom. In what ways did the differ? How were they the same? 3. Did you know that some Essene sects also "ate bugs"? There are recipes found in the DSS. 4. Did you know, according to Hippolytus, the Pharisees were a sect of Esseni? Plug that in to what you know and see where it goes. 5. Did you know that the Qumran community thought of themselves as the ones who were preparing the way of the Messiah? 6. In Luke 1:80 we are told: "And the child grew and became strong in spirit, and he was in the wilderness until the day of his public appearance to Israel." So-John was in the "wilderness" from the time he was a child until the day of his public appearance to Israel. Why? Who raised him? Not Zechariah. Not Elizabeth. Who? I want to propose that it was an Essene group and perahps the Qumran community. 7. Did you know that there were two versions of Messiah coming? One with one man twice and another with two men, once each? So, when John sends his disciples to ask Jesus, "Are you the one we were to look for or do we look for another?"-John was asking Jesus which version of Messiah coming was true. The Essenes believed in two advents. Therefore, John was asking for confirmation as to which version was true. Jesus gave him his answer. 8. Part of Jesus' answer to John included "the dead are raised". So, not only did Jesus confirm a single man (Himself) coming twice (two advents), but He affirmed this with the raising of the dead. There is some conjecture that the Essenes saw raising of the dead as a solid proof of Messiah by way of expectation rather than being surprised by it. There are plenty of evidences that lead us towards a concrete understanding of John as being raised by, belonging to, being trained by, and even leading an Esseni sect. His having disciples goes to the heart of this conjecture. It is quite hard to imagine John as some lone-wolf crazy hermit living in the desert. If that were the case, he would have no disciples. You hae brought up the conjecture that Jesus and John may well have seen each other during Jerusalem feasts. Perhaps so, but that is supposition. If John was being trained and raised in the desert, what is the likelihood of him traveling to Jerusalem for feasts? Maybe. Maybe not. That would take more investigation. Most folks assume that Jesus just "knew" scripture because He is the Son of God and Son of man. I don't think so. I think He was taught and perhaps taught by an Esseni group in his own town. There were plenty of Essenes living all over Judea. We know this because Hippolytus tells us this in his history, written in the 3rd century. So-it may well be that the link between Jesus and John is more to do with Yeshiva (schooling) as well as close family ties. Surely, Elizabeth would have communicated to Mary that John was in the wilderness being trained because of his calling-both angelic delivery of the message and priestly through his father. John the Baptist is indeed a very deep character in scripture. There is a lot we can know and not just from gospel texts, but from DSS writings and other evidences, including archeology. Jesus' links to His cousin are also of deep interest and I am happy that you made this video and brought this material up for "the rest of us". :-)
Really enjoyed the video. 📹 Thank you Brandon. 😊 I'm 53 & for the first time as an adult, I am learning the Biblical stories. 🤔 Your podcasts are excellent. 👌
John had "WORDS" of wisdom. Even though he didn't perform miracles , his voice was a sword of Truth and Life for the populace. So it's unlikely John the baptist would have come with emotional outburst like "YEAH!!" after Jesus cast out demons LMAO
Thank you so much Brandon 🙏 there's so much we don't know and are hungry to learn. Thanks to you we will learn more. I look forward to seeing your videos and learning more and more. God bless you 🙏
Brandon I just happened to find you about a month ago and I have to say that I enjoy all of your teachings that you broadcast regarding the Bible, the Apostles, etc. Thank you for loving Jesus and wanting to teach others about our Lord and Savior.
While I still haven’t convinced work that Jesus is calling and I need to watch this live 😁 I’m just as in awe of how you teach. Also, watching after work allows me time to get my Bible a pen and paper so I can take notes. Thank you Brandon again for your wealth of knowledge ❤️
Thank you for explaining us more about the times, when Yeshua lived. I believe, we can understand many things better, when we learn "history", how jewish people lived, what customs did they have, what did they think and believe.
I think John the Baptist was humble because he knew his purpose. He knew that he was to prepare the way for the Lord. He did not get caught up in his fame or work. I think it's hard for us, because many of us struggle with insecurities and feelings of worthlessness. We strive for value in our careers, ministries, and human's approval. God is teaching me that who we are in him is all that matters. I never realize the Elijah also wore camel hair. The only connection I knew of John the Baptiser, (prior to this video) was when Jesus told him he was Elijah.
When you know EXACTLY what you are and EXACTLY why you are here, you cannot be anything BUT humble. GOD's prophet, the prophesied return of Elijah, speaks in these end times: John WAS an Essene. The Essenes were not ALL communal. Mary and Joseph were also Essenes, and so Yeshua was obviously born into the Essenes. But of course, "Jesus" transcends all doctrines and groups. And He followed the SPIRIT of the Law, which is LOVE, rather than the symbolic LETTER of the Law, which men misunderstand and corrupt. Spirit gives life; the letter kills. See the meaning? I am the same soul that came as Moses, then Elijah, then John the Baptist, and now as described in Revelation Chapter 11. There's much I can share with those who are ready. Click and ye shall find. (I don't receive TH-cam comment notifications and communicate only through my websites.)
John the Baptist is one of my favorite characters in the Bible, when I read the part about his death I was sad like I had met him personally, I can only imagine how sad and angry Jesus felt when John died 😔
Yes, great comments! Love Elijah's prophecy for the last days (hearts to the fathers, etc.) - talking about temple work and genealogy! Also great insights into John the Baptist (Looking forward to watching the chosen more too) Thanks and keep up the good work :)
I always appreciate a deep dive into Biblical figures so often skipped over following a primary appearance. Thank you, again, for your research and excellent presentation.
Tks for your videos ! I’m learning a lot and They are very encouraging in helping in my walk with ! And to dig deeper into Gods word. God bless you always . I look forward to the. Next one.
Wonderful analysis about John the Baptist life and the his of why he did what he did against Herod if he was marrying his niece. Thank you again for your interpretation of the history.
Brandon, I just wanted to tell you, my wife and I have watched many of your videos and we have thoroughly enjoyed every one! We faithfully attend a large Penticostal Holiness church in Elizabeth City, NC. Keep up the good work!!
I am so glad that I ran into your dories on u tube. Thank you for breaking down and explaining the Bible to us. I have always had trouble with some of the wording . God Bless 🙏🏼
So when I was on tour in Isreal our Guides at Mesada said it is believed Elizabeth escaped with Baby John to the community of Essens for refuge from Herod's kill Jewish Baby Boys 2 yrs and under. Also was told John ate honey and locust bean from the Locust Tree that grows in Isreal and it was shown to us. On our tour Bound to Travel in Isreal 1999.
Luke 1 17 And he will go on before the Lord, in the spirit and power of Elijah, to turn the hearts of the parents to their children and the disobedient to the wisdom of the righteous-to make ready a people prepared for the Lord.”
I always thought herod killed him because he didnt want to look like a fool. He had promised her whatever she wanted. I always thought he liked John and didnt really want to kill him
Yes, he didn't want to kill him, but had to for his oath's sake. He likely had put John into prison to try to appease his unlawful, vindictive wife. Luke 6:20 and 25-27 20For Herod feared John, knowing that he was a just man and an holy, and observed him; and when he heard him, he did many things, and heard him gladly. - 25 And she came in straightway with haste unto the king, and asked, saying, I will that thou give me by and by in a charger the head of John the Baptist. 26 And the king was exceeding sorry; yet for his oath's sake, and for their sakes which sat with him, he would not reject her. 27 And immediately the king sent an executioner, and commanded his head to be brought: and he went and beheaded him in the prison,
Thank you. I'm so glad I found your channel. I have learned so much from you. You have made Bible clearer in context and cultural history and more like SOZO.
@@BrandonRobbinsMinistry yes. My niece committed suicide and it broke my heart. Listening to your teaching sozo healed my heart. I shared with my sister. Thank you
Very interesting & important to surrender ourselves to God. I am still praying my rosary for your safe trip to the Holy Land that all of you may be safe & have a holy time.
@@BrandonRobbinsMinistry in these times the thought of traveling is scary (for more then one reason). My dream is to also go. I hope that you don't loose money in the change of date ...
So glad I found you On You tube I'm a big fan of the Chosen. I believe is is very wise to research the Jesus and all the people in his life to better understand the salvor and his message.
I don't believe John was "creepy". He was different to say the least but not creepy. He never felt like he belonged in this world which is probably the way we should be.
John didn't drink, didn't "party", didn't go into gatherings, weddings, yes, for most people he was "creepy"..then Jesus came going to parties, having some wine and enjoying with fellow people and they said he was a weird teacher.
It's a ridiculously inane adjective that feminists tend to say whenever they misjudge what they don't understand or they seek to vilify and incriminate the realities of the wilderness/
I learned as a child at church that Mary and Elizabeth were each with child when Mary came to her. And that when they met, the baby in Elizabeth’s womb (John the Baptist) leapt at being near to the baby in Mary’s womb (Jesus). So John knew before either of them were born that Jesus was the Son of God and what his purpose in life was to be. This is in the Scriptures. Luke 1: 39-56 ♥️😊
One correction to the Christian world, Uncle John did not eat bugs, i.e., locust that eats plants, he ate the locust seed or the Robina pseudoacacia or the black locust seed. The Hebrew people had strict dietary laws. John, being a Nazarite, would never eat a single bug. I humbly share this knowledge passed to me by my bishop. May the Lord Jesus continue to bless you and all your viewers!!!!!
Locusts are in the grasshopper family which did make the cut as being "clean" and a permitted food item in the Jewish law. Nevertheless, I hope he ate black locust seed! 😊
c. 7:00 Being between Leviticus and Numbers in my devotion, I'd also cite Sukkot as a commemoration of "God's second chance" when He relented from wiping them out as a result of the golden calf incident, as this feast follows within the same month, Yom Kippur, and then what followed that relenting was the 40-day reiterating of the plans for the portable Tabernacle that would now be where He would dwell with them on their travels, and then its construction.
The fact that you all still read "scripture" through 2,000 Years (72 Generations) of humans and hold it to task of what the original word was, is amazing to me. I can hardly keep a conversation with 1 person over texts, yet you think the original message of Christ has been completely sterile for 2,000 years. OH my goodness, bless your hearts.
I saw a Jewish Christian that lives in Israel, he says that actually what John ate wasn't actually locusts as insects , but some type of seeds from a tree????
John was the cause of the crucifixion of Jesis. John 1:21 - They asked him, “Then who are you? Are you Elijah?” He said, “I am not.” “Are you the Prophet?” He answered, “No.” NIV
John is Elijah If You Would Receive Him, forerunner Isaiah 40:3 a voice crying out in the wilderness Make a straight Path For The LORD to Travel on This LORD=YHVH The IAM, Written of Here Is Jesus, LORD Jesus See Fulfillment in Matthew 11:11 Elijah and John are my favourite Biblical figure Next to Jesus Christ Himself HE IS LORD FOREVERLORD JESUS THE WORD THE SON THE CHRIST GOD ALMIGHTY COME IN THE FLESH IMMANUEL GOD WITH US great presentation i Love Hearing About John The Baptist Thankyou herod tetetriach ? proxy King possibly an edomite Again Thankyou for the great presentation and information Brandon ✝️👊🏻🦁👍🕊
Now I see more clear about John. I made the paint of John head on the plate. And that night I had a dream about the paint on which I saw John with a mustache. And next day. I put the mustache on the face. If we see the situation on England. Where one person was divorced so she could marry the Successor to the throne. I'm sure that John wouldn't stop talking and probably he would get his head cut again. Praise the Lord Jesus. AMEN
May we pray for one another so that we might achieve what our savior desires us to be. Salvation 101 is to draw others to the salvation which Jesus Christ embodies; the salvation of our souls, our placement into eternity. We must let go of ourselves and embrace His Godliness!
Great simplified videos for anyone to understand with biblical texts to support the arguments. Have always wondered though as well whether additionally the decapitation of John was also not symbolic of decapitation of his ministry so the entire focus could go to Jesus

He's mocking the apostles. Political problems did not start with Jesus and His followers.
Amen Sister
John was in God’s timeing

Not gonna lie, the "creepy John" preview had me ROLLING and is what made me want to watch The Chosen... which led me here and I'm so glad for it! 💛
I have learned so much about John in one sitting. Spending time alone listening to this story is worthwhile. May God continue to bless you, sir.
I’m so glad. Thank you!
Thank you so much Brandon 🙏 there's so much we don't know and are hungry to learn. Thanks to you we will learn more. I look forward to seeing your videos and learning more and more. God bless you 🙏
Mr Robbins thank you for helping an old guy learn more about the scriptures your a true servant of the Lord God bless you and your family.
Wow! Brandon, this is a great video. Loved how you tied together the pieces of scripture about John and the cultural information. Thank you!

That I can become less so He can become greater. Thank you!
Awesome teaching, I enjoy it, we must pray to the Lord every day to help us us to decrease so that He may increase in our life.
Being a follower of Jesus is not easy but by the grace of Jesus I will do it
Thank you, Brandon. You are a master teacher whose invitations for us to introspect and act are inspired. Thank you for helping us to focus on Jesus.

John the Baptist, one of the most humble man in history ❤️ not consumed with greed and popularity ❤️ it's just sad he died young 💔
Yeah but that reward he got in Heaven was probably well worth it I imagine

Great analogies
I feel so blessed God engineered my learning so much more thru you. I feel so blessed. Thank you ….God bless you
John is a testimony that looks and status don't determine how God can use us.
The wild locust that John the Baptist ate is a wild bean, not a bug.
I have been told root. But ill go for what you said. Sounds more better
Beautiful video bro. Love you
You are a great teacher. 🙏

Now I see more clear about John. I made the paint of John head on the plate. And that night I had a dream about the paint on which I saw John with a mustache. And next day. I put the mustache on the face. If we see the situation on England. Where one person was divorced so she could marry the Successor to the throne. I'm sure that John wouldn't stop talking and probably he would get his head cut again. Praise the Lord Jesus. AMEN
Imagine being baptized by jesus😳 Wow!!! 😍😍🙏♥️
May we pray for one another so that we might achieve what our savior desires us to be. Salvation 101 is to draw others to the salvation which Jesus Christ embodies; the salvation of our souls, our placement into eternity. We must let go of ourselves and embrace His Godliness!
Thank you!
Coming up on 90K subbies! Congrats 👏👏👏👏👏
Great simplified videos for anyone to understand with biblical texts to support the arguments.
Have always wondered though as well whether additionally the decapitation of John was also not symbolic of decapitation of his ministry so the entire focus could go to Jesus
Thank you
