jub - Matthew:11:1-19

jub@Matthew:11:1 @ And it came to pass, when Jesus had finished giving commandments to his twelve disciples, he departed from there to teach and to preach in their cities.

jub@Matthew:11:2 @ Now when John had heard in the prison the works of the Christ, he sent two of his disciples,

jub@Matthew:11:3 @ and said unto him, Art thou he that should come, or do we look for another?

jub@Matthew:11:4 @ Jesus answered and said unto them, Go and tell John those things which you hear and see:

jub@Matthew:11:5 @ The blind receive their sight, and the lame walk; the lepers are cleansed, and the deaf hear; the dead are raised up, and the poor have the gospel preached to them.

jub@Matthew:11:6 @ And blessed is he who is not offended in me.

jub@Matthew:11:7 @ And as they departed, Jesus began to say unto the multitudes concerning John, What did you go out into the wilderness to see? A reed shaken with the wind?

jub@Matthew:11:8 @ But what did you go out to see? A man clothed in soft raiment? Behold, those that wear soft [clothing] are in kings' houses.

jub@Matthew:11:9 @ But what did you go out to see? A prophet? Yes, I say unto you, and more than a prophet.

jub@Matthew:11:10 @ For this is [he] of whom it is written, Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, who shall prepare thy way before thee.

jub@Matthew:11:11 @ Verily I say unto you, Among those that are born of women there has not risen a greater than John the Baptist; notwithstanding, he that is least in the kingdom of the heavens is greater than he.

jub@Matthew:11:12 @ From the days of John the Baptist until now, life is given unto the kingdom of the heavens, and the valiant take hold of it.

jub@Matthew:11:13 @ For all the prophets and the law prophesied until John.

jub@Matthew:11:14 @ And if ye will receive [it], this is that Elijah who was to come.

jub@Matthew:11:15 @ He that has ears to hear, let him hear.

jub@Matthew:11:16 @ But unto whom shall I liken this generation? It is like unto children sitting in the markets and shouting unto their fellows

jub@Matthew:11:17 @ and saying, We have piped unto you, and ye have not danced; we have mourned unto you, and ye have not lamented.

jub@Matthew:11:18 @ For John came neither eating nor drinking, and they say, He has a devil.

jub@Matthew:11:19 @ The Son of man came eating and drinking, and they say, Behold a gluttonous man and a winebibber, a friend of publicans and sinners. But wisdom is justified by her children.
