Man » Knowledge limited strength limited » Man of sorrows
When he had said these things, Jesus was greatly distressed in spirit, and testified, "I tell you the solemn truth, one of you will betray me."
He was despised and rejected by people, one who experienced pain and was acquainted with illness; people hid their faces from him; he was despised, and we considered him insignificant.
Then he looked up to heaven and said with a sigh, "Ephphatha" (that is, "Be opened").
Sighing deeply in his spirit he said, "Why does this generation look for a sign? I tell you the truth, no sign will be given to this generation."

When Jesus saw her weeping, and the people who had come with her weeping, he was intensely moved in spirit and greatly distressed.
Jesus wept.
"Now my soul is greatly distressed. And what should I say? 'Father, deliver me from this hour'? No, but for this very reason I have come to this hour.
Man » Knowledge limited strength limited » Made in the image of God
"Whoever sheds human blood, by other humans must his blood be shed; for in God's image God has made humankind."
This is the record of the family line of Adam. When God created humankind, he made them in the likeness of God.
With it we bless the Lord and Father, and with it we curse people made in God's image.
Then God said, "Let us make humankind in our image, after our likeness, so they may rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air, over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over all the creatures that move on the earth." God created humankind in his own image, in the image of God he created them, male and female he created them.
For a man should not have his head covered, since he is the image and glory of God. But the woman is the glory of the man.
