What does the Bible say about the calling of Zacchaeus?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible describes Zacchaeus's calling in Luke 19:1-10, emphasizing that Jesus came to seek and save the lost.

In Luke 19:1-10, we see the account of Zacchaeus, a wealthy tax collector, who sought to see Jesus amidst the crowd. Despite being short in stature, he climbed a sycamore tree to catch a glimpse of the Savior. When Jesus reached that spot, He looked up and called Zacchaeus by name, telling him to hurry down because He would stay at his house. This encounter illustrates the divine initiative in salvation, where Jesus seeks out those lost in their sin. Zacchaeus represents not just a curious seeker, but a person transformed by grace, affirming the doctrine of effective calling and God's sovereignty in salvation.
