Matthew 22-23

Matthew 22: 41-46
Now while the Pharisees were gathered together, Jesus asked them a question,  saying, What think ye of the Christ? whose son is he? They say unto him, [The son] of David.  He saith unto them, How then doth David in the Spirit call him Lord, saying, The Lord said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand, Till I put thine enemies underneath thy feet?  If David then calleth him Lord, how is he his son?  And no one was able to answer him a word, neither durst any man from that day forth ask him any more questions.

They asked Jesus questions to try to test Him or to catch Him in a paradox that He could not explain.  Then Jesus asks them a question that they cannot answer without acknowledging that He is Lord, so they stop asking asking their "test" questions.  There were 12 apostles, around 70 disciples, and throngs of followers of Jesus.  These people were not there to "test" Jesus, but i would assume that they would have legitimate questions.  Haven't we all thought about what we would ask Jesus when we get to meet Him?

What  is the first question you will ask Jesus when you finally meet Him?

The Leonardo Da'Vinci depiction of the Last Supper in Milan, Italy is perhaps the most famous of many renditions of the Last Supper.  Jesus and all the apostles are positioned on the same side of the table.  While historically inaccurate, this was done for at least two reasons.  The obvious reason is for perspective.  Da'Vinci did not want to present the backs of some of the apostles.  The other reason goes to the purpose of the painting.  Today the purpose of the painting is that of a tourist attraction.  As many or more who come to see it, come because they are fans of Da'Vinci's talents more than they are fans of  Biblical stories.  However, the work was originally commissioned with the idea that a table would be placed next to the painting which allow monks to sit at the table with Jesus and the apostles.   Not only are all the people on the same side of the table, but the painting is also made to look as an extension of the room, a sort of 3D effect, or a virtual reality of the day. Would you find it easier to remain on The Path if you were sitting down to three meals a day in the company of Jesus and the apostles?
