This is how the contemporaneous hearer would have understood the phrase. E.g. [Knock at the door]; “State your name”;”My name is John, I come in the name of Peter Ben Joseph. You are invited to attend a wedding feast next month!” So the initiator of the sending is Jesus, in this case. Not to negate Dottard’s points in his answer above 🙏🏆 | |
