Oops of the Day 

Jesus called the tax collector Matthew to follow him even though they had just met.

Matthew 9:9  –  Matthew 4:13  –  Matthew 9:1

Fact of the Day

No!  Jesus had come to “his own city” which was Capernaum.  Matthew had his import-export tax booth set up in Capernaum.  Archaeologists believe Capernaum had a population of 1000-1500.  Everyone knew everyone else.  Jesus and Matthew knew each other before.
