Summary

The word "burden" shows up a few different times in the New Testament, and it starts with this one moment with Jesus in Matthew Chapter 11. Jesus is teaching to a community that hasn’t accepted him; they’ve pushed back against him, and Jesus decides to challenge them. But he also reaches the point where he softens. He looks to this crowd and knows there are individuals who may be interested in him. So, he says: "Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light." I find this teaching from Jesus to be really quite fascinating—really, really interesting. Jesus starts by telling people who are weary and burdened … people who are tired … people who are carrying heavy weight, to bring it to him. He will take their burden from them. What kind of burdens are we talking about?
