47 Everyone who heard him was amazed at his understanding and wise answers.
48 When his parents saw him, they wondered how this was possible. And his mother said, “Son, why did you do this to us? Your father and I were very worried about you. We have been looking for you.”
49 Jesus said to them, “Why did you have to look for me? You should have known that I must be where my Father’s work is.”
50 But they did not understand the meaning of what he said to them.
51 Jesus went with them to Nazareth and obeyed them. His mother was still thinking about all these things.
52 As Jesus grew taller, he continued to grow in wisdom. God was pleased with him and so were the people who knew him.
