Jesus as a child in the Temple

He said to them, “Why were you looking for me? Didn’t you know that I must be in my Father’s house?”

After three days they found him in the temple, sitting in the midst of the teachers, both listening to them, and asking them questions.

His parents went every year to Jerusalem at the feast of the Passover.

All who heard him were amazed at his understanding and his answers.

When they saw him, they were astonished, and his mother said to him, “Son, why have you treated us this way? Behold, your father and I were anxiously looking for you.”

They didn’t understand the saying which he spoke to them.
