Survey Matthew 13:1-2 KJV,Matthew 24:3 KJV,Matthew 26:55 KJV; Mark 2:6 KJV,Mark 4:1 KJV, Mark 9:35 KJV,Mark 12:41 KJV,Mark 13:3 KJV; Luke 4:20 KJV,Luke 5:3 KJV, Luke 5:17 KJV;John 8:2 KJV; Acts 13:14-15 KJV, Luke 16:13 KJV
And also notice in Matthew 5:1 KJV, traditionally referred to as "The Sermon on the Mount", in which "Hollywood" typically portrays the Lord Jesus Christ as standing, He is actually sitting down.
But notice:
Luke 2 KJV
46 And it came to pass, that after three days they found him in the temple, sitting in the midst of the doctors, both hearing them, and asking them questions. 47 And all that heard him were astonished at his understanding and answers. 48 And when they saw him, they were amazed: and his mother said unto him, Son, why hast thou thus dealt with us? behold, thy father and I have sought thee sorrowing.
And notice His age:
Luke 2 KJV
42 And when he was twelve years old, they went up to Jerusalem after the custom of the feast.
Truly is the Saviour "Wonderful"(Isaiah 9:6 KJV), truly is He "astonishing"(Matthew 7:28-29 KJV, Matthew 13:54 KJV, Matthew 22:33 KJV; Mark 1:22 KJV, Mark 6:2 KJV,Mark 10:24 KJV; Luke 2:46 KJV, Luke 4:32 KJV), and truly is He "Great", as it is written:

Amen....verily....
