From Google AI Overview
Understanding the Story (Comprehension)
1. Who are the two men in the story?
2. What did the Pharisee thank God for? What did he say about himself and the tax collector?
3. How did the tax collector demonstrate his humility when he prayed?
4. Who did Jesus say went home right with God (justified)?
Exploring the Meaning (Interpretation)
1. Why do you think Jesus told this specific parable (to whom)?
2. What is self-righteousness, and how is it shown in the Pharisee's prayer?
3. What does it mean for someone to be justified by God?
4. Compare the attitudes of the Pharisee and the tax collector.
Applying the Lesson (Application)
1. In what areas of your life do you tend to trust your own abilities more than God's mercy?
2. How can comparing yourself to others be dangerous, as the Pharisee did?
3. What are some practical ways you can show true humility in your life?
4. How can you make sure your prayers are humble and focused on God's mercy, rather than yourself?
Understanding the Parable
1. Why did Jesus tell this parable?
He told it to people who trusted in their own righteousness and looked down on others, to show them the true way to be right with God.
2. Who were the two men, and what does their prayer show about their attitudes?
The Pharisee was confident in his own righteousness and focused on his good deeds. The tax collector, a despised sinner, was humble and acknowledged his unworthiness.
3. What does the Pharisee's prayer reveal about him?
His prayer is full of self-praise and contempt for others, showing a heart focused on his own perceived goodness rather than God.
Key Themes and Concepts
1. Righteousness: What does it mean to be righteous in the eyes of God? Is it based on our works, or on something else?
2. Humility vs. Self-Righteousness:
How does the tax collector's humility differ from the Pharisee's self-righteousness? Which attitude does God exalt, according to Jesus' conclusion in verse 14?
3. Justification:
What does it mean for the tax collector to have gone home "justified"? Is it something he earned through his actions or received from God's grace?
Application for Students
1. Personal Reflection:
Have you ever compared yourself to others, thinking you are better than them?
2. Prayer Life:
When you pray, do you focus on your own good deeds, or do you ask for God's mercy? How can you cultivate a more humble posture in your prayers?
3. Humility:
In what areas of your life do you tend to trust yourself rather than God? How can you grow in genuine humility?
