Luke 2:52

SCRIPTURE

"And Jesus advanced in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and men." — Luke 2:52 (ASV)

Jesus’ growth was entirely normal. His growth in wisdom does not detract from his deity, for Jesus willingly gave up the full use of his divine powers . “Stature” likely refers to his personal development, i.e., maturity.
