What We May Have Missed in Jesus’s Loving Response to a Despised Man in the Bible

Keywords

Zacchaeus and Jesus, biblical pilgrimage, pure in heart

Abstract

Not far from the ancient remains of Jericho stands a large and solitary sycamore tree. Undoubtedly old, this sycamore tree is one of several in the area that have been the magnet for centuries of pilgrims seeking to experience the stories of Jesus. These religious tourists are seeking to experience something like what Zacchaeus did so many years ago when Jesus visited Jericho.
