WEB · Bible Passage

Bible Text

[42] When he was twelve years old, they went up to Jerusalem according to the custom of the feast, [43] and when they had fulfilled the days, as they were returning, the boy Jesus stayed behind in Jerusalem. Joseph and his mother didn't know it, [44] but supposing him to be in the company, they went a day's journey, and they looked for him among their relatives and acquaintances. [45] When they didn't find him, they returned to Jerusalem, looking for him. [46] It happened after three days they found him in the temple, sitting in the midst of the teachers, both listening to them, and asking them questions.
