Good Manners, Bad Faith ⚖️

Jewish tradition values questioning, testing, and learning together — that’s not the problem. Luke tells us the issue here is intent. By adding a small prefix to a word for honest inquiry, the meaning shifts from learning to entrapment. In Greek, you can feel it right away: this isn’t curiosity — it’s strategy. The politeness is the giveaway. Some questions aren’t asked to discover truth, but to control it. Wisdom isn’t just knowing how to answer — it’s knowing when a question was never honest to begin with. #discernment #badfaith #readingcarefully
