ISB ~ Luke 2 v49
Did you not know:Jesus is not rebuking Mary and Joseph, as though they had done something wrong, but instructs them on how their parental role must be subordinate to the will of his divine Father. His parents do have an important part to play in his mission, as indicated in the subsequent context, where Jesus submits himself to their leadership and honors them with the faithful obedience of a son (2:51). my Fatherās house: Literally, āin that of my Fatherā. This could refer to the Temple specifically or to his mission from the Father more generally.
