Jesus Was a cARPENTER

By Murray Strong A simple question about Jesus as a carpenter, turned a quick check on google, into hours of research. What was his experience like working with his father Joseph? Did he enjoy his life? Was his father strict in his training? Jesus Mother Mary, provided a good home and support. Did he work on any large projects? Unfortunately the Bible contains no information on the missing 18 years of his life. Jesus was born in a manger, seen by 3 wise men and went home with his parents. Next mention of Jesus was around the age of 12. Next mention was at 30 years old. He left home and every detail of his life after this point is in the Bible. The people he met, his friends, even his death is known by most people. His father, Joseph son of Jacob, is the first carpenter in the Bible. It is the responsibility of a father to teach his trade to his son. Still no luck on finding the missing information during 18 years of his life. Hollywood is desperate to find new movies that people would pay to see at the theater. Cartoons are the rage in 2024. What about a movie of Jesus during the missing 18 years. You did it with Elvis. If you’re a younger reader ask your teacher at Sunday school about the missing 18 years. The carpenter of Nazareth raised a good son. Canada started to go metric in 1970 but America stayed with the old imperial methods. This causes a lot of confusion and expense for both countries in nearly all businesses. Carpenters and most trades need to know both systems and carry tools for both. Even the military has problems with two systems. Hopefully Canada and the rest of the world convinces Americans the metric system is easier and more accurate. In 1744 the country of England invented the slot screw and screwdriver. 130 years passed before Henry Frank Phillips (June 4/1889 –April 13, 1958) an American businessman from Portland Oregon, invented the (“crosshead”) screw and screwdriver which is named after him. Canada saved the world by inventing a better screw, the Robertson square socket drive. Peter Lymburner Robertson (Dec 10, 1879-Sept. 28 1951 ) was a Canadian inventor , industrialist , salesman, and philanthropist. He had his business in Milton Ontario where he solved the American problem of camming out when using a Philips screw. Some facts about the drink made from Vodka and orange juice called a “screwdriver”. It was invented by American oil workers in the Persian Gulf in the mid 20thcentury. While working they would secretly put a little Vodka into their orange juice and with no spoon they used a screw driver to stir their drink. Thank you Denny Crane
