We learn a second thing from Zacchaeus and Jesus as well. Salvation is demonstrated by a change in character and attitude, by the advent of a new generosity. But that generosity is also the harbinger of radical and wonderful change in other relationships.

Salvation comes to Zacchaeus’ house in so many other ways! An outcast gained new friends and a new community and a new reputation. Someone known for greed became famous for generosity. A world of new kingdom relationships opened up for Zacchaeus, who underwent a revelation in self-perception and social image.
