In Luke 2:41-52, we see an account of Jesus at the age of 12, where he remains in the temple after his parents leave Jerusalem. Mary and Joseph are distressed when they cannot find him, only to discover him three days later engaging with doctors of the law. His profound understanding and insightful questions astonish those who hear him. This moment is significant as it symbolizes a dawning awareness of his divine purpose and mission, emphasizing his commitment to his Father's business.
