This “quickbook” is titled “Searching for Jesus” because it’s a commentary of verses 43-46a of the second chapter of Luke’s Gospel, Lk 2:40-52. It’s the fourth quickbook in The Boy Jesus Series, after a presentation of the text itself in Magnifying Glass, the life of the boy Jesus in Nazareth in Boy Jesus, and the story of Jesus’ first Passover pilgrimage and celebration in Passover. This quickbook covers from the holy family’s completion of their Passover duties to the instant just before finding Jesus in the Temple. As such, it answers the questions:

• How long was their stay in Jerusalem?
• What did Jesus see in Jerusalem?
• What was it about Jerusalem that attracted Jesus?
• Did Jesus choose to remain in Jerusalem? Why would he do this to his parents?
• What was it about his humanity that sought independence?
• How could Mary and Joseph lose their only son?
• What was it like to search for Jesus? Where did they look?
• What does their search tell us about following Jesus?
• Why did they find him after three days?
• …and more!
