Answer Details

These words were addressed to Joseph and Mary by Jesus. In the Bible, this event is known as the Finding of the Child Jesus in the Temple. After the Passover feast, Joseph and Mary left Jerusalem, not realizing that Jesus was not with them. After searching for him for three days, they found him in the temple talking with the teachers, and he uttered these words to them when they expressed their concern. This event is recounted in the Gospel of Luke in the New Testament of the Bible.
