JOHANNE 20

14Yare ha a rialo, a reteleha, mme a bona Jesu a eme, feela a se ke a tseba hore ke Jesu.

15Jesu a re ho yena: “Mosadi, o llelang? O batla mang?”

Yena, ka ho hopola hore ke molemi wa serapa, a re ho yena: “Monghadi, haeba ke wena ya mo tlositseng, mpolelle moo o mmeileng teng, mme ke tla ya mo nka.”

JOHANNE 20:14-15SSO89SOBula ka mmadi wa Bibele

Jesus appears as a gardener, one of the people, low in status. He could have appeared as a president of a country to show the people how to run their lives, but no Jesus appears as a gardener. Why? Is it because people today only listen to the powerful and think those who have little have nothing to say? Will we recognize Jesus if he returns as a gardener?
