''Why does your teacher eat with tax collectors and sinners?''. On what occasion was this question asked?
The question, "Why does your teacher eat with tax collectors and sinners?" was asked following the call of Matthew (Levi) to be a disciple of Jesus. This event is recorded in Matthew 9:9-13, Mark 2:13-17, and Luke 5:27-32. After Jesus called Matthew to follow Him, Matthew hosted a great feast in his house, and tax collectors and sinners were present. The Pharisees questioned the disciples about Jesus' choice to dine with such individuals, and Jesus responded with the famous statement, "It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick."
