bwe@Matthew:1:2 @ Jesus family line: Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Judah, Perez (his mother was Tamar), Zezron, Ram, Amminadab, Nahshon, Salmon, Boaz (his mother was Rahab), Obed (his mother was Ruth), Jesse, David the king, Solomon (whose mother was Uriahs wife), Rehoboam, Abijah, Asa, Jehoshaphat, Joram, Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, Hezekiah, Manasseh, Amon, Josiah, Jeconiah and his brothers (at the time the people of Israel were carried away to Babylon), Shealtiel, Zerubbabel, Abiud, Eliakim, Azor, Zadok, Achim, Eliud, Eleazor, Matthan, Jacob and Joseph who was the husband of Mary. Mary was the mother of Jesus, who is called the Christ.

bwe@Matthew:1:18 @ This is the way Jesus Christ was born. Mary, his mother, was promised to Joseph to be his wife. But before they were married, she found out that she was going to have a baby. It was by the Holy Spirit.

bwe@Matthew:1:20 @ While he was thinking about this, he had a dream. An angel of the Lord came to him. He said, Joseph, Davids son, do not fear to take Mary to be your wife. Her baby is by the Holy Spirit.

bwe@Matthew:1:21 @ She will have a baby son. Name him Jesus, because he will save his people from the wrong things they have done.

bwe@Matthew:1:22 @ All of this had been told long before by the Lord through his prophet. It came true.

bwe@Matthew:1:23 @ The prophet said, A young woman who has not slept with a man is going to have a baby son. His name will be Emmanuel. That means "God is with us."

bwe@Matthew:1:24 @ Joseph woke up and did what the angel of the Lord told him to do. He took Mary to be his wife.

bwe@Matthew:2:2 @ They asked, Where is the child who has been born to be King of the Jews? We saw his star rising and we have come to worship him.

bwe@Matthew:2:3 @ When King Herod heard this, he was very troubled. All the people in Jerusalem were troubled also.

bwe@Matthew:2:11 @ They went into the house, and there they saw the child and Mary his mother. They kneeled down and worshipped him. Then they opened their bags and gave him gifts. These gifts were gold, and frankincense and myrrh.

bwe@Matthew:2:13 @ After the wise men had gone, Joseph had a dream. An angel of the Lord came to him and said, Get up. Take the child and his mother, and go quickly to the country of Egypt. Stay there till I tell you, because Herod will try to find the child and kill him.

bwe@Matthew:2:14 @ Joseph woke up. He took the child and his mother in the night and went to Egypt.

bwe@Matthew:2:15 @ He stayed there until Herod died. What the Lord told through his prophet long ago, came true. He said I called my son out of Egypt.

bwe@Matthew:2:20 @ The angel said, Get up. Take the child and his mother and go to the country of Israel. The men who wanted to kill the child are dead.

bwe@Matthew:2:21 @ Joseph woke up. He took the child and his mother and went to the country of Israel.

bwe@Matthew:2:22 @ But he heard that Archelaus was king of Judea in his father Herods place. So he was afraid to go there. In a dream he was told what to do. He went to the country of Galilee.

bwe@Matthew:2:23 @ He went and made his home in the town of Nazareth. The prophets of God long ago had said, He shall be called a man from Nazareth. What they said came true.

bwe@Matthew:3:3 @ This is the man that Isaiah the prophet of God spoke about long ago. He said, A man is calling in the wilderness, "Make the way ready for the Lord. Make the road straight for him."

bwe@Matthew:3:11 @ I baptise you with water when you stop your wrong ways. But another person is coming after me. He is greater than I am. I am not good enough to take off his shoes. He will baptise you with the Holy Spirit and with fire.

bwe@Matthew:3:12 @ He has a cleaning fan in his hand and will fan his grain very clean. He will put the grain into his storehouse. But he will burn the chaff in the fire that never dies.

bwe@Matthew:3:15 @ But Jesus answered, Please do it now. In this way we shall do all that is right. Then John let him be baptised.

bwe@Matthew:3:17 @ A voice from the sky said, This is my dear Son. I am very pleased with him.

bwe@Matthew:4:6 @ The devil said to him, If you are Gods Son, jump down. The holy writings say, "God will tell his angels to take care of you. They will hold you up in their hands so that you will not knock your foot on a stone."

bwe@Matthew:4:18 @ Jesus was walking by the sea of Galilee. There he saw two brothers, Simon who later was named Peter, and his brother Andrew. They were throwing a fishing net into the water. Their work was to catch fish.

bwe@Matthew:5:1 @ When Jesus saw the many people, he went up on a hill. He sat down and his disciples came to him.

bwe@Matthew:5:21 @ You have heard this said to men long ago, "Do not kill. Anyone who kills will be judged in court."

bwe@Matthew:5:22 @ But I tell you this. Anyone who is angry with his brother without having a good reason, will be judged in court. Anyone who says wrong things to his brother will be judged for it in the big court. Anyone who says "You fool!" will be judged to go into hell fire.

bwe@Matthew:5:23 @ Perhaps you are bringing your gift to God at his altar. There you remember that your brother has something against you.

bwe@Matthew:5:28 @ But I tell you that if a man looks at a woman and he wants her, then he has already committed adultery with her in his heart.

bwe@Matthew:5:31 @ The law said, "Any man who does not want to keep his wife must give her a paper to tell others she is no longer his wife."

bwe@Matthew:5:32 @ But I tell you, no man may send away his wife unless she has committed adultery. If he does send her away, he is making her commit adultery. And if a man marries a woman who has been sent away from her husband, he commits adultery.

bwe@Matthew:5:33 @ Also you have heard this said to men long ago, "You must not make a promise in Gods name and break it." And, "You must do for the Lord what you said you would do."

bwe@Matthew:5:35 @ Do not use the name of earth, because that is where God rests his feet. Do not use the name of Jerusalem, because it is the city of the great King.

bwe@Matthew:5:45 @ In that way you will be sons of your Father in heaven. He makes his sun shine on both wrong and good people. He lets the rain fall on people who do right and on people who do wrong.

bwe@Matthew:6:2 @ So when you give money to poor people, do not send men in front of you to blow trumpets or horns. Some people do this in the meeting houses and on the streets so that people will praise them. They are not true to themselves. I tell you the truth. They have their pay already.

bwe@Matthew:6:4 @ In this way, what you give to the poor will be secret. Your Father sees secret things and he will reward you.

bwe@Matthew:6:9 @ So talk to your God like this: "Our Father in heaven, may your name be kept holy.

bwe@Matthew:6:25 @ So, I tell you this. Do not be troubled about what you will eat or drink to keep alive. Do not be troubled about what you will wear on your body. Life itself is worth more than food, and the body is worth more than clothes.

bwe@Matthew:7:16 @ You will know them by the things they do. People do not pick fruit like grapes from thistles. They do not pick fruit like figs from thorn trees.

bwe@Matthew:7:24 @ Everyone who hears what I say and obeys me will be like a man who has good sense. He built his house on a rock.

bwe@Matthew:7:26 @ But everyone who hears what I say and does not obey me, will be like a man who has no sense. He built his house on the sand.

bwe@Matthew:7:28 @ Jesus finished saying all these things. The people were surprised at his teaching.

bwe@Matthew:8:3 @ Jesus put out his hand and touched him. He said, I want to. Be healed. Right away his leprosy was healed.

bwe@Matthew:8:4 @ Jesus said to him, Do not tell anyone about this. But go and let the priest look at you. Moses gave a law about the sacrifice you must give when you are healed. Give it, to prove to people you are healed.

bwe@Matthew:8:9 @ I myself am a man who takes orders, and I have soldiers who take orders from me. I say to one, "Go," and he goes. I say to another one, "Come," and he comes. I say to my servant, "Do this," and he does it.

bwe@Matthew:8:10 @ Jesus was surprised when he heard this. He said to the people who followed him, I tell you the truth. I have not found any Jew who believes as this man does.

bwe@Matthew:8:23 @ Jesus got in the boat and his disciples got in with him.

bwe@Matthew:8:27 @ The disciples were surprised. They said What kind of man is this? Even the winds and the sea obey him.

bwe@Matthew:9:1 @ Jesus got in the boat and crossed the sea. He came to his own town.

bwe@Matthew:9:2 @ Some men brought a sick man to him. The man could not move his arms or legs. He was lying on a bed. Jesus saw that they believed he would be healed. So he said to the sick man, My son, be glad! The wrong things you have done are forgiven.

bwe@Matthew:9:3 @ Some of the scribes were thinking, This man is not giving respect to God.

bwe@Matthew:9:8 @ Many people saw this and were much surprised. They praised God who had given such power to men.

bwe@Matthew:9:10 @ Jesus was eating in a house. Many tax collectors and bad people came in. They sat down to eat with Jesus and his disciples.

bwe@Matthew:9:11 @ The Pharisees saw this. They said to his disciples, Why does your teacher eat with tax collectors and bad people?

bwe@Matthew:9:13 @ Go and learn what this means: "I want you to be kind. I do not want a sacrifice." I did not come to call good people. I came to call bad people to stop doing wrong things.

bwe@Matthew:9:19 @ Jesus got up and went with the ruler. His disciples went too.

bwe@Matthew:9:20 @ A woman had a sickness for twelve years. She was bleeding all the time. She came behind Jesus and touched his clothes.

bwe@Matthew:9:21 @ She said to herself, If only I touch his clothes, I will be well.

bwe@Matthew:9:28 @ When Jesus came into the house, the blind men came to him. Jesus asked them, Do you believe that I can do this? They said, Yes, sir.

bwe@Matthew:9:30 @ Then they were able to see. Jesus said to them, Take care, do not tell anyone about this.

bwe@Matthew:9:32 @ As they were leaving, people brought a man to Jesus. This man could not talk He had a bad spirit in him.

bwe@Matthew:9:33 @ Jesus drove the bad spirit out of the man. Then he could talk. The people were very much surprised. They said, Nothing like this has ever been seen in the country of Israel.

bwe@Matthew:9:37 @ Then Jesus said to his disciples, The harvest is much. But there are not many people to gather it.

bwe@Matthew:9:38 @ Talk to the Lord of this harvest, and ask him to send out people to his harvest.

bwe@Matthew:10:1 @ Jesus called his twelve disciples to him. He gave them power over bad spirits so they could drive them out of people. He gave them power to heal people who were sick or weak in any way.

bwe@Matthew:10:2 @ The names of the twelve apostles are: Simon, whose other name was Peter, and his brother Andrew, James and his brother John, the sons of Zebedee, Philip and Bartholomew, Thomas and Matthew the tax collector, James, the son of Alphaeus, and Lebbaeus, whose other name was Thaddaeus, Simon, the freedom fighter, and Judas Iscariot, the one who gave Jesus over to people who hated him.

bwe@Matthew:10:10 @ Do not take a bag with you, and do not take two shirts, shoes, or a walking stick. The one who does the work should be given his food.

bwe@Matthew:10:21 @ A brother will take his brother to be killed. A father will take his child. The children will talk against their father and mother, and have them killed.

bwe@Matthew:10:24 @ The one who learns is not better than his teacher. And the servant is not better than his master.

bwe@Matthew:10:25 @ The one who learns should want to be like his teacher. And the servant should want to be like his master. If they say the master belongs to the devil, they will say it all the more about those who work for him.

bwe@Matthew:10:35 @ I came to take away peace between a man and his father. I came to take away peace between a daughter and her mother. I came to take away peace between a mans wife and his mother.

bwe@Matthew:10:36 @ A man will have people in his own family who make trouble for him.

bwe@Matthew:10:37 @ Anyone who loves his father or his mother more than he loves me, is not good enough for me. Anyone who loves his son or his daughter more than he loves me, is not good enough for me.

bwe@Matthew:10:38 @ Anyone who is not willing to carry his cross and suffer with me, is not good enough for me.

bwe@Matthew:10:39 @ Anyone who tries to keep his life, will lose it. Anyone who gives up his life for my sake, will find it.

bwe@Matthew:10:42 @ And if any one as a disciple gives a drink of cold water to one of my children, he will not lose his reward. I tell you the truth.

bwe@Matthew:11:1 @ When Jesus finished telling his twelve disciples what to do, he left that place. He went to teach and tell Gods word to people in the towns around there.

bwe@Matthew:11:2 @ John was in prison. He heard what Christ was doing. So he sent two of his disciples to him.

bwe@Matthew:11:6 @ Anyone who is not troubled in his heart about me, will be happy.

bwe@Matthew:11:14 @ If you will believe it, this man is the Elijah who would come.

bwe@Matthew:11:19 @ The Son of Man came. He eats and drinks. People say, "This man eats and drinks too much! He is a friend with tax collectors and bad people!" But a man is proved to be wise by what he has done.

bwe@Matthew:11:20 @ Then Jesus began to talk about the towns where he had done most of his big works. He said hard things about the people, because they did not stop their wrong ways and turn back to God.

bwe@Matthew:12:1 @ About that time, Jesus was walking through the grain fields on a Sabbath day. His disciples were hungry. They began to pick some of the grain and to eat it.

bwe@Matthew:12:3 @ But Jesus said to them, Have you not read what David did? He and his men who were with him were hungry.

bwe@Matthew:12:7 @ You do not know what this means, "I want you to be kind; I do not want a sacrifice." If you knew, then you would not have said what they did was wrong. What they did was not wrong.

bwe@Matthew:12:13 @ Then he said to the man, Hold out your hand. The man held out his hand and it was made well like the other hand.

bwe@Matthew:12:18 @ He said, This is my servant. I have chosen him. I love him. I am very pleased with him. I will put my Spirit on him. He will judge the people who are not Jews.

bwe@Matthew:12:19 @ He will not fight or shout. No one will hear his voice in the streets.

bwe@Matthew:12:24 @ The Pharisees heard about it. They said, This man drives out bad spirits by the help of Beelzebub, the chief of bad spirits.

bwe@Matthew:12:26 @ If Satan drives out Satan, he fights against himself. How then will his kingdom stand?

bwe@Matthew:12:29 @ If anyone wants to go into a strong mans house and steal his things, he must first tie the strong man. Then he can steal his things.

bwe@Matthew:12:31 @ That is why I tell you this. All wrong things that people do or say, will be forgiven. But people who say wrong things against the Holy Spirit will never be forgiven.

bwe@Matthew:12:32 @ Anyone who says anything against the Son of Man will be forgiven. But anyone who says anything against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven. He will not be forgiven in this world or in the next world.

bwe@Matthew:12:35 @ A good man has stored up good things in his heart, so he will say good things. A bad man has stored up wrong things in his heart, so he will say wrong things.

bwe@Matthew:12:36 @ I tell you this. On the day when people are judged, they will pay for every empty word they have said.

bwe@Matthew:12:46 @ While Jesus was still talking to the people, his mother and brothers stood outside. They wanted to talk to him.

bwe@Matthew:12:49 @ He pointed to his disciples and said, These people are my mother and my brothers!

bwe@Matthew:13:19 @ People listen to the message about the kingdom of heaven. If anyone does not understand it, the devil comes along and takes the message out of his heart. That person is like the seed which fell on the road.

bwe@Matthew:13:21 @ But it does not go down deep in his heart. He believes it for a short time. When trouble or a hard time comes because of the message, he stops believing.

bwe@Matthew:13:22 @ Some seed fell among the weeds. That is like the person who hears the message. But he thinks about the things of this world. He wants to get money to be happy. These things push the message out of his heart. No good comes from it.

bwe@Matthew:13:24 @ Jesus told the people another story. He said, The kingdom of heaven is like this. A man sowed good seed in his field.

bwe@Matthew:13:28 @ He answered them, "A bad man has done this." They asked him, "Do you want us to go and pull up the weeds?"

bwe@Matthew:13:31 @ Jesus told the people another story. He said, The kingdom of heaven is like this. A man took a mustard seed and planted it in his field.

bwe@Matthew:13:33 @ Jesus told them another story. He said, The kingdom of heaven is like this. A woman took yeast and mixed it with many cups of flour. The yeast went all through the flour.

bwe@Matthew:13:36 @ Then Jesus left the people and went into the house. His disciples came to him. They said, Tell us the meaning of the story about the weeds in the field.

bwe@Matthew:13:39 @ The bad man who planted the weeds is the devil. The harvest time is the end of this world. The men who cut the harvest are angels.

bwe@Matthew:13:41 @ The Son of Man will send his angels. They will gather everything that is bad and the people who do bad things. They will take them out of his kingdom.

bwe@Matthew:13:44 @ The kingdom of heaven is like this. Something worth a lot of money is buried in a field. A man found it and covered it again. He was so glad that he went and sold everything he had. Then he bought that field.

bwe@Matthew:13:45 @ The kingdom of heaven is like this. A trader was looking for fine stones called pearls.

bwe@Matthew:13:47 @ The kingdom of heaven is like this. A fish net was thrown into the sea. It caught all kinds of fish.

bwe@Matthew:13:54 @ He went back to his home town and he taught people in their meeting house. They were very much surprised and said, Where did he learn all this? Where did he get the power to do these big works?

bwe@Matthew:13:55 @ Is he not the carpenters son? Is not Mary his mother? Are not James, Joseph, Simon, and Judas his brothers?

bwe@Matthew:13:56 @ Are not his sisters all here with us? Where did he get all this?

bwe@Matthew:13:57 @ They did not understand Jesus. Jesus said to them, Other people honour a man who is a prophet. But the people in his own country and home do not honour him.

bwe@Matthew:14:1 @ At this time Herod the ruler heard of Jesus.

bwe@Matthew:14:2 @ He said to his servants, This is John the Baptizer. He is risen from death. That is why he is able to do such great work.

bwe@Matthew:14:3 @ Herod had taken John and tied him up. He put him in prison. He did this because of Herodias. She was the wife of his brother Philip.

bwe@Matthew:14:9 @ The king was very sorry to do this. But he had made a promise. And all the people who were there had heard him promise. So he gave orders to do it.

bwe@Matthew:14:12 @ Then Johns disciples came and took his body and buried it. They went and told Jesus.

bwe@Matthew:14:13 @ When Jesus heard this, he went away from there in a boat. He went to a lonely place by himself. The people heard that he went away and they followed him. They walked from the towns around there.

bwe@Matthew:14:15 @ In the evening the disciples came to him. They said, This is a lonely place. And the time is late. Send these people away so they can go to the farms and villages to buy food for themselves.

bwe@Matthew:14:24 @ The boat was far out on the water by this time. The water was beating against the boat and the wind was blowing the wrong way.

bwe@Matthew:14:26 @ His disciples saw him walking on the water. They were afraid, and said, It is a spirit! Then they shouted loudly because they were afraid.

bwe@Matthew:14:31 @ Right away Jesus put out his hand and took hold of him. He said, You do not believe very much in me! Why did you not believe?

bwe@Matthew:14:36 @ They begged Jesus to let them touch his clothes. And all the people who touched him were healed.

bwe@Matthew:15:4 @ God said, "Respect your father and your mother." And God said, "Anyone who says wrong things to his father or his mother will surely die."

bwe@Matthew:15:5 @ But you say, "Tell your father or your mother that you have given to God what you were going to give to them." You say, "If anyone says that, then he does not need to help his father or mother."

bwe@Matthew:15:17 @ Do you not know this? What goes into the mouth goes into the stomach, and then it goes out of the body.

bwe@Matthew:15:18 @ But what comes out of the mouth, comes from the heart. This is what makes a person dirty.

bwe@Matthew:15:22 @ Jesus did not answer her. His disciples came to him and said, Send her away. She keeps calling after us.

bwe@Matthew:15:31 @ Jesus called his disciples to him. He said, I share the suffering of the people. They have been with me for three days and they have nothing to eat. I do not want to send them away hungry. If they go away hungry, they will get weak and fall on the way.

bwe@Matthew:15:32 @ The disciples said to him, Where can we get enough food in this lonely place to feed so many people?

bwe@Matthew:16:13 @ Jesus went to the country of Caesarea Philippi. He asked his disciples, I am the Son of Man. Whom do people say I am?

bwe@Matthew:16:17 @ Jesus answered, Simon, Jonahs son, God has blessed you. No person on earth has showed you this. But my Father in heaven has showed you.

bwe@Matthew:16:18 @ I tell you this. You are Peter. On this rock I will build my church. The power of death will not destroy it.

bwe@Matthew:16:21 @ From that time on, Jesus began to teach his disciples. He said, I must go to Jerusalem. I will have much trouble from the leaders, the chief priests, and the scribes. I will be killed. On the third day, I will be raised from death.

bwe@Matthew:16:22 @ Peter took him to one side and began to talk to him. He said, Lord! May God stop it! This must never happen to you.

bwe@Matthew:16:24 @ Then Jesus told his disciples, If anyone wants to come with me, he must leave what he himself wants to do. He must be willing to carry his cross and come with me.

bwe@Matthew:16:25 @ Anyone who wants to keep his life will lose it. And anyone who gives up his life for my sake will find it.

bwe@Matthew:16:26 @ What good will it do a man if he gets the whole world for himself, but loses his life? What can a person give to get back his life?

bwe@Matthew:16:27 @ The Son of Man will come with his angels and will be great like his Father. Then he will pay every man for what he has done.

bwe@Matthew:16:28 @ I tell you the truth. Some people are standing here who will not die before they see the Son of Man come in his kingdom.

bwe@Matthew:17:1 @ Six days after this, Jesus took Peter, James, and his brother John with him. He led them up a hill by themselves.

bwe@Matthew:17:2 @ Jesus was changed in front of them. His face was bright like the sun. His clothes were white, like light.

bwe@Matthew:17:4 @ Peter said to Jesus, Lord, this is a good place for us. If you want, we will make three places here, one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah.

bwe@Matthew:17:5 @ While he was saying this, a bright cloud came over them. A voice in the cloud said, This is my dear Son. I am very pleased with him. Listen to him.

bwe@Matthew:17:20 @ Jesus said to them, Because you do not believe enough. I tell you the truth. If your strength to believe were as much as a little mustard seed, you could say to this hill, "Go, move over to that place!" And it would move. Nothing is too hard for you to do.

bwe@Matthew:17:21 @ But this kind of bad spirit does not come out of a person unless people ask God and fast <FI>do not eat food for a time<Fi>.

bwe@Matthew:17:22 @ They were travelling in Galilee. Jesus said to his disciples, The Son of Man will be given over to men.

bwe@Matthew:17:23 @ They will kill him. But he will be raised on the third day. This troubled the disciples very much.

bwe@Matthew:18:4 @ So anyone who feels himself small like this little child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven.

bwe@Matthew:18:5 @ If anyone takes in a child like this for my sake, he takes in me.

bwe@Matthew:18:6 @ These little children believe in me. If anyone makes one of them do wrong, he will be punished. He will have worse trouble than if a big stone were tied to his neck and he were thrown into the deep sea.

bwe@Matthew:18:10 @ Do not think badly of these little children. I tell you this. They have angels in heaven. And all the time their angels can see the face of my father who is in heaven.

bwe@Matthew:18:12 @ What do you think about this? A man has a hundred sheep. One of them is lost. Will he not leave the ninety-nine sheep on the hills and go to look for the one that is lost? Yes, he will.

bwe@Matthew:18:23 @ In that way the kingdom of heaven is like this. A king was ready to finish his business with his servants.

bwe@Matthew:18:25 @ He could not pay it. So his master said, "Go sell him, his wife, his children, and everything he has, and pay me!"

bwe@Matthew:18:27 @ His master was sorry for him and let him go. He did not make him pay the money.

bwe@Matthew:18:28 @ That same servant went out and met another servant. This man owed him a much smaller sum of money. He caught him by the throat and said, Pay me what you owe me!"

bwe@Matthew:18:29 @ Then this servant bowed down in front of him. He begged, "Give me time. I will pay you."

bwe@Matthew:18:32 @ Then his master called the first servant to him. He said, "You bad man! I let you go. I did not make you pay all you owed me, because you begged me to be kind to you.

bwe@Matthew:18:34 @ His master was very angry. He turned the servant over to the prison guards until he could pay all he owed him.

bwe@Matthew:19:1 @ When Jesus had finished this talk, he left Galilee. He went away to the part of Judea that is on the other side of the Jordan River.

bwe@Matthew:19:3 @ The Pharisees came to Jesus to test him. They asked, Is it right for a man to send his wife away from him for any reason?

bwe@Matthew:19:4 @ Jesus answered, Have you not read this? From the time God first made people, he made them a man and a woman.

bwe@Matthew:19:5 @ God said, "A man must leave his father and mother and must stay with his wife. The two of them will be like one person."

bwe@Matthew:19:7 @ They said to Jesus, Then why did Moses make this law? He said that a man may give his wife a paper to show that he does not want her any more. Then he may send her away.

bwe@Matthew:19:9 @ But I tell you this. No man may send his wife away unless she has committed adultery. If he does, and if he marries another woman, he commits adultery. And if a man marries a woman who has been sent away by her husband, he commits adultery.

bwe@Matthew:19:12 @ Some men cannot marry because they were born that way. Some were made that way by men. Others said, "I will not marry, for the sake of the kingdom of heaven." Anyone who can do this, should do it.

bwe@Matthew:19:13 @ Then people brought children to Jesus. They wanted him to put his hands on them and ask God to bless them. The disciples tried to stop the people.

bwe@Matthew:19:15 @ So he put his hands on the children. Then he went away.

bwe@Matthew:19:21 @ Jesus said, If you want to be all right, go and sell everything you have. Give the money to poor people. For this you will be rich in heaven. Then come and go with me.

bwe@Matthew:19:23 @ Then Jesus said to his disciples, I tell you the truth. It is very hard for a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven.

bwe@Matthew:19:24 @ And I tell you this also. It is easier for a big animal like a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God.

bwe@Matthew:19:25 @ When the disciples heard this, they were very much surprised. They said, Then who can be saved?

bwe@Matthew:19:28 @ Jesus said to them, I tell you the truth. In the new world, the Son of Man will be great. He will sit on his throne of glory <FI>big chair of a king<Fi> to rule. Then you who have come with me will also sit on twelve thrones. You will judge the twelve tribes of Israel.

bwe@Matthew:19:29 @ If anyone has left his house, his brothers, his sisters, his father, his mother, his children, or his farms for my sake, he will receive a hundred times as much as he has left. And he will live for ever.

bwe@Matthew:20:1 @ The kingdom of heaven is like this. A man owned a farm. Early in the morning he went out to look for men to work on his farm.

bwe@Matthew:20:2 @ He agreed to pay them a days wages and sent them out to his farm.

bwe@Matthew:20:8 @ When evening came, the man who owned the farm said to his manager, "Call the workmen and pay them. Begin with those who came last and end with those who came first."

bwe@Matthew:20:28 @ The Son of Man did not come to have others help him. But he came to help others. He came to give his life to make many people free.

bwe@Matthew:21:1 @ Jesus and his disciples came near to Jerusalem. They came to the village of Bethphage by the hill called the Mount of Olives. Then Jesus sent two of his disciples ahead.

bwe@Matthew:21:4 @ This happened, and what the prophet of God said long ago, came true.

bwe@Matthew:21:10 @ When Jesus came into Jerusalem, all the people there were very excited. They said, Who is this?

bwe@Matthew:21:11 @ The people who were with Jesus said, This is Jesus from the town of Nazareth in Galilee. He is a prophet.

bwe@Matthew:21:16 @ They asked Jesus, Do you hear what they are saying? Jesus answered, Yes. Have you never read this? "You like the praise of children and babies."

bwe@Matthew:21:21 @ Jesus said to them, I tell you the truth. Believe God. Do not doubt him. Then you can do what I did to this fig tree. But that is not all. You can even say to this hill, "Go and jump into the sea" and it will be done.

bwe@Matthew:21:28 @ What do you think about this? A man had two sons. He went to the first one and said, "Son, go and work today on my farm."

bwe@Matthew:21:29 @ The son said, "No, I will not go." But he changed his mind and went.

bwe@Matthew:21:31 @ Which of the two sons did what his father wanted him to do? They said, The first one. Then Jesus said, I tell you the truth. The tax collectors and women who commit adultery by selling their bodies, are going into the kingdom of God ahead of you.

bwe@Matthew:21:34 @ When it was near the time to cut the fruit, he sent his servants to those men. He wanted to have some of the fruit.

bwe@Matthew:21:37 @ Last of all he sent his son to them. He said, "They will respect my son."

bwe@Matthew:21:38 @ When the men saw the son, they said to each other, "This is the one who will have everything when his father dies. Let us kill him and we will have it all."

bwe@Matthew:21:42 @ Jesus said, Have you never read in the holy writings "The stone which the builders would not use is now the chief corner stone. The Lord did this. It looks wonderful to us"?

bwe@Matthew:21:44 @ If anyone falls on this stone, he will be broken to pieces. But if this stone falls on anyone, it will crush him.

bwe@Matthew:22:2 @ He said, The kingdom of heaven is like this. A king made a wedding for his son.

bwe@Matthew:22:3 @ The king sent his servants to call the people who had been asked to the wedding. But they would not come.

bwe@Matthew:22:5 @ The people did not listen, but went away. One went to his farm. One went to his business.

bwe@Matthew:22:6 @ The others caught his servants, treated them very badly, and killed them.

bwe@Matthew:22:7 @ The king was very angry. He sent his soldiers to kill the men who had killed his servants. And he burned their city.

bwe@Matthew:22:8 @ Then he said to his servants, "The wedding is ready. But those who were asked to come were not good enough.

bwe@Matthew:22:13 @ Then the king said to his servants, "Tie his hands and his feet. Put him in a dark place outside. People there will cry and grind <FI>make a noise with<Fi> their teeth."

bwe@Matthew:22:20 @ Whose picture and name is this? he asked.

bwe@Matthew:22:24 @ They came to ask him a question. They said, Teacher, Moses gave us this law: "If a man dies and has no children, then his brother must marry the wife and raise a family for his brother."

bwe@Matthew:22:25 @ There were seven brothers among us. The first one married. He died and left no children. So his brother married the wife.

bwe@Matthew:22:28 @ Now then, when people rise from death, which of the seven brothers will have her for his wife? They all married her.

bwe@Matthew:22:33 @ When the people heard this, they were surprised at his teaching.

bwe@Matthew:22:38 @ This is the first and greatest law.

bwe@Matthew:22:45 @ David calls Christ his Lord. How can Christ be Davids son?

bwe@Matthew:23:1 @ Then Jesus talked to the people and to his disciples.

bwe@Matthew:23:20 @ So if anyone makes a promise by Gods altar, he makes his promise by it and by all that is on it.

bwe@Matthew:23:21 @ If anyone makes a promise by the temple, he makes his promise by the temple and by God who lives in the temple.

bwe@Matthew:23:22 @ If anyone makes a promise by heaven, he makes his promise by Gods big chair called a throne and by God who sits on the throne.

bwe@Matthew:23:39 @ I tell you this. You will not see me again until the time when you say, "God bless him who comes in the name of the Lord."

bwe@Matthew:24:1 @ Jesus left the temple and was going away. His disciples came to him. They wanted to show him the different buildings that were a part of the temple.

bwe@Matthew:24:3 @ Jesus was sitting on the hill called the Mount of Olives. The disciples came to him alone. They said, Tell us, when will this happen? What will be the sign to show you are coming and that it is the end of this world?

bwe@Matthew:24:14 @ This good news about the kingdom will be told in all the world. The people in all countries must know about it. And then the end will come.

bwe@Matthew:24:15 @ Daniel the prophet said that people would put something very bad in the temple. (Let the one who reads this understand it.)

bwe@Matthew:24:18 @ A person who is working in the fields must not go back home to get his coat.

bwe@Matthew:24:22 @ No person would be saved if the Lord did not cut the time of trouble shorter. He will cut it shorter for the sake of his chosen people.

bwe@Matthew:24:31 @ He will send his angels to call with a loud trumpet or horn. They will gather his chosen people from everywhere all over the earth.

bwe@Matthew:24:38 @ In the days before the water covered the earth, people ate and drank. They married and gave their daughters to be married. Then one day Noah went into his house built on a boat.

bwe@Matthew:24:43 @ And remember this. The owner of the house does not know at what time of the night a man will come to steal something. If he knew, he would watch and not let the man break into his house.

bwe@Matthew:24:45 @ Who is like a wise servant who can be trusted? His master will put him in charge of his other servants. He gives them their food at the right time.

bwe@Matthew:24:46 @ The servant who is doing this when his master comes, will be blessed.

bwe@Matthew:24:47 @ I tell you the truth. His master will put him in charge of all that he has.

bwe@Matthew:25:1 @ Then the kingdom of heaven will be like this. Ten young women took their lamps and went to meet a man who was being married.

bwe@Matthew:25:14 @ The kingdom of heaven will be like the time a man went to a country far away. He called his servants and put them in charge of his money.

bwe@Matthew:25:18 @ But the man who had only one bag of money dug a hole in the ground. And he hid his masters money in the ground.

bwe@Matthew:25:19 @ After a long time, the master of those servants came home. He asked what they had done with his money.

bwe@Matthew:25:20 @ The servant who had been given five bags of money brought five bags more to his master. He said, "Sir, you gave me five bags of money. See, I have made five bags more money."

bwe@Matthew:25:21 @ His master said, "You have done well. You are a good servant. I can trust you. You have taken good care of a few things. I will put you in charge of many things. Come, have a good time with your master."

bwe@Matthew:25:22 @ The servant who had been given two bags of money came and said to his master, "Sir, you gave me two bags of money. I have made two bags more money."

bwe@Matthew:25:23 @ His master said, "You have done well. You are a good servant. I can trust you. You have taken good care of a few things. I will put you in charge of many things. Come, have a good time with your master."

bwe@Matthew:25:26 @ His master answered him, "You are a bad and lazy servant. You knew that I cut grain where I did not plant. You knew that I pick fruit where I put nothing in.

bwe@Matthew:25:30 @ Take this good-for-nothing servant! Put him out in the dark place outside. People there will cry and make a noise with their teeth."

bwe@Matthew:25:31 @ The Son of Man will be great and will come with all his holy angels. Then he will sit on his throne like a king.

bwe@Matthew:25:33 @ The Son of Man will put people who are like the sheep at his right side. He will put people who are like the goats at his left side.

bwe@Matthew:25:34 @ Then the King will say to those who are at his right side, "Come! My Father has blessed you. The kingdom was made ready for you when the world was first made. Come into it now.

bwe@Matthew:25:41 @ Then he will say to those at the left side "Go away from me. You are cursed. Go into the fire that burns for ever. That fire has been made ready for the devil and his angels.

bwe@Matthew:26:1 @ When Jesus had finished telling all these things, he talked to his disciples.

bwe@Matthew:26:2 @ He said, You know that after two days it will be time for the Passover Feast. The Son of Man will be given over to his enemies to be nailed to a cross.

bwe@Matthew:26:3 @ Then at that time the chief priests and the leaders of the people met together in the house of the high priest. His name was Caiaphas.

bwe@Matthew:26:8 @ When the disciples saw this, they were angry. They said, Why was the oil wasted like that?

bwe@Matthew:26:23 @ Jesus answered them, The man who is putting his hand in the dish with me is the one who will give me over.

bwe@Matthew:26:26 @ As they were eating, Jesus took some bread. He thanked God for it and broke it. He gave it to the disciples and said, Take this bread and eat it. It is my body.

bwe@Matthew:26:27 @ He also took a cup. He thanked God for it. Then he gave it to the disciples and said, All of you drink from this.

bwe@Matthew:26:28 @ This is my blood. My blood is the blood of the new agreement. It is given so that many people will be forgiven for the wrong things they did.

bwe@Matthew:26:29 @ I tell you this. I will not drink any of the juice of the fruit of the vine again, until I drink some of it new with you in my Fathers kingdom.

bwe@Matthew:26:31 @ Then Jesus said to them, All of you will leave me this night. The holy writings say, "I will kill the one who takes care of the sheep. And the sheep will run away."

bwe@Matthew:26:34 @ Jesus said, I tell you the truth. This night, before the cock calls, you will say three times that you do not know me.

bwe@Matthew:26:36 @ Then Jesus came to a place called Gethsemane. He said to his disciples, Sit down here. I will go over there and talk with God.

bwe@Matthew:26:39 @ Jesus went on a little further. He bowed down with his face to the ground. He talked to God and said, My Father, if it can be, let this cup of trouble pass by me. But do not do what I want. May what you want be done.

bwe@Matthew:26:41 @ Watch and talk with God, so that you will not do wrong. A persons heart can want to do it, but his body is weak.

bwe@Matthew:26:42 @ Jesus went away again. He talked to God and said, My Father, if you do not want this cup to pass by me, but you want me to drink it, I will do what you want.

bwe@Matthew:26:45 @ Then he went back to his disciples and said to them, Are you still sleeping and resting? The time has come now. The Son of Man is given over to bad people.

bwe@Matthew:26:47 @ As Jesus was saying this, Judas came. He was one of the twelve disciples. Many people came with him. They had long knives or swords and big sticks. The chief priests and the leaders of the people had sent them.

bwe@Matthew:26:51 @ One of the men who was with Jesus took his sword in his hand. He hit the servant of the high priest and cut off his ear.

bwe@Matthew:26:54 @ But then, how would Gods word come true? The holy writings say that this is the way it must be.

bwe@Matthew:26:56 @ All this happened so that what the prophets said in the holy writings would come true. Then all the disciples left Jesus and ran away.

bwe@Matthew:26:57 @ The men who caught Jesus took him to Caiaphas, the high priest. The scribes and the leaders had met at his house.

bwe@Matthew:26:58 @ Peter followed Jesus a long way behind. He went as far as the yard of the high priests house. He sat down with the people who worked for the high priest. He wanted to see how this would end.

bwe@Matthew:26:61 @ They said, This man said, "I can break down Gods temple and build it again in three days."

bwe@Matthew:26:62 @ The high priest stood up. He said to Jesus, Have you no answer? What do you have to say about this? They have said something against you.

bwe@Matthew:26:64 @ Jesus answered him, Yes, I am. Also I tell you that after this you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of the One who has all power. You will see him coming on the clouds in the sky!

bwe@Matthew:26:65 @ Then the high priest tore his clothes and said, What he has said is wrong! We do not need any more proof against him. You have heard the wrong thing he said.

bwe@Matthew:26:71 @ Peter went out to the gate. There, another servant-girl saw him. She said to the others around there, This man was also with Jesus of Nazareth.

bwe@Matthew:27:6 @ The chief priests took the money. They said, It is not right to put this money in the money box of the temple. It has been used to buy a mans death.

bwe@Matthew:27:14 @ But Jesus did not answer him, not even one word. Pilate was very much surprised about this.

bwe@Matthew:27:19 @ While Pilate was sitting in the court to judge the case, his wife sent a message to him. She said, Do nothing to that good man. I have been troubled very much in a dream about him today.

bwe@Matthew:27:24 @ Pilate saw that he was not doing any good. And the people were making a lot of loud noise. So he washed his hands in water in front of the people. Then he said, I will not say this man must be killed. You must do that.

bwe@Matthew:27:28 @ They took off his clothes, and they put a red gown on him.

bwe@Matthew:27:29 @ They made a big ring of thorns like a crown and put it on his head. They put a stick in his right hand. Then they kneeled down in front of him and made fun of him. They shouted, Greetings, King of the Jews!

bwe@Matthew:27:31 @ After they had made fun of him, they took off the red gown. They put his own clothes on him. Then they took him away to nail him to a cross.

bwe@Matthew:27:37 @ They put the complaint against Jesus above his head. These words were written there: This is Jesus the King of the Jews.

bwe@Matthew:27:47 @ Some of the people standing there heard what Jesus said. They said This man is calling for Elijah.

bwe@Matthew:27:54 @ The Roman captain and some of his soldiers were guarding Jesus on the cross. When they saw the earth shake and the other things happen, they were very much afraid. They said, Surely this man was Gods Son.

bwe@Matthew:27:60 @ He put the body in his own new grave which had been cut in a rock. He rolled a very big stone to close the grave. Then he went away.

bwe@Matthew:27:64 @ So give orders that the grave must be guarded for three days. Then his disciples cannot come in the night to carry away his body, and tell people he rose from death. This last trick would be worse than the first.

bwe@Matthew:27:66 @ So they went and shut the grave tight. They put a government mark on the big stone. And the soldiers stayed to guard it. This was to make sure the grave would stay shut.

bwe@Matthew:28:3 @ His face shone like lightning. His clothes were as white as snow.

bwe@Matthew:28:7 @ Go quickly and tell his disciples, "He has risen from death. He is going to Galilee before you. You will see him there." Now, I have told you.

bwe@Matthew:28:8 @ The women went quickly away. They left the grave with fear and they were very happy. They ran to tell his disciples.

bwe@Matthew:28:9 @ As they were going, Jesus met them. He said Greetings! The women bowed down in front of him and put their hands on his feet.

bwe@Matthew:28:13 @ They said, Tell the people, "His disciples came by night and took away the body while we were sleeping."

bwe@Matthew:28:14 @ If the ruler hears about this, then we will talk to him so that he will not punish you.

bwe@Matthew:28:15 @ The soldiers took the money. They did as they were told to do. And even to this day, many of the Jewish leaders say this is what happened to Jesus.

bwe@Mark:1:1 @ This is the beginning of the good news about Jesus Christ, Gods Son.

bwe@Mark:1:2 @ The men of God, called prophets, long ago wrote about it this way: God said, See, I send my man ahead of you to tell about you. He will make the way ready for you.

bwe@Mark:1:7 @ He told the people, Another person is coming. He is greater than I am. I am not good enough to bend down and untie his shoe strings.

bwe@Mark:1:16 @ Jesus was walking by the Sea of Galilee. There he saw Simon and his brother Andrew. They were throwing a fishing net into the water. Their work was to catch fish.

bwe@Mark:1:19 @ Jesus went on from there and saw James and his brother John. Their fathers name was Zebedee. They were in a boat mending their nets.

bwe@Mark:1:22 @ They were very much surprised at his teaching because he taught them as if he had the right to teach them. He did not teach them like their teachers called scribes.

bwe@Mark:1:27 @ The people were all surprised. They said one to another, What is this? Is not this a new teaching? He tells the bad spirits what to do and even they obey him

bwe@Mark:1:36 @ Simon and his friends went out after Jesus.

bwe@Mark:1:41 @ Jesus was very sorry for him. He put out his hand and touched him. He said, I want to. Be healed.

bwe@Mark:1:42 @ As soon as he said this, the disease left the man and he was healed.

bwe@Mark:1:44 @ He said, Do not tell anyone about this. But go and let the priest look at you. Moses gave a law about the gift you must give to God when you are healed. Give it to prove to people that you are healed.

bwe@Mark:1:45 @ But the man went out and told everyone everywhere what had happened to him. Because he did this, Jesus could not go into any large town freely. He stayed in places where only a few people were. There people came to him from everywhere.

bwe@Mark:2:3 @ Four men brought a sick man to Jesus. The man could not move his arms or legs.

bwe@Mark:2:7 @ They were thinking, Why does this man say such wrong things against God? He is not giving God respect! Who can forgive the wrong things people do? No one but God can do that.

bwe@Mark:2:8 @ Jesus understood in his spirit what the scribes were thinking. He said right away, Why do you think these wrong things in your hearts?

bwe@Mark:2:12 @ Right away the man stood up in front of them. He took up his mat and went home. They were all very much surprised, and they praised God. They said, We have never seen anything like this before.

bwe@Mark:2:15 @ Jesus was eating in Levis house. Many tax collectors and bad people also came. They sat down to eat with Jesus and his disciples. There were many who went with him.

bwe@Mark:2:23 @ Jesus was walking through the grainfields on the Sabbath day. His disciples began to pick some of the seed (to eat) as they went along.

bwe@Mark:2:25 @ Jesus answered them, Have you not read what David did? He and his men who were with him were hungry.

bwe@Mark:3:8 @ Jesus and his disciples went away to the sea of Galilee. Many people went with Jesus. They came from Galilee, Judea, Jerusalem, Idumea, and from the other side of the Jordan River. And many more people came also, a great many from around the cities of Tyre and Sidon. They also had heard about the great works that Jesus had done.

bwe@Mark:3:10 @ He did this because he healed many people. All who were sick tried to touch him.

bwe@Mark:3:17 @ He also chose James and his brother John, the sons of Zebedee, whom he named Boanerges, which means "Men of Thunder."

bwe@Mark:3:19 @ He also chose Andrew, Philip, Bartholomew, Matthew, Thomas, James the son of Alphaeus, Thaddaeus, Simon of Canan, and Judas Iscariot, the one who gave Jesus over to people who hated him. Then Jesus and his disciples went home.

bwe@Mark:3:21 @ When Jesus family heard about this, they came to take him away. They said, He is crazy.

bwe@Mark:3:22 @ The scribes who came from Jerusalem also talked about Jesus. They said, Beelzebub, the chief of bad spirits, is in this man. He drives out bad spirits by the help of Beelzebub.

bwe@Mark:3:27 @ If anyone wants to go into a strong mans house and steal his things, he must first tie the strong man. Then he can steal his things.

bwe@Mark:3:30 @ Jesus said all this because the scribes said, A bad spirit is in him.

bwe@Mark:4:13 @ Jesus said also, Do you not understand this story? How then are you going to understand all the stories?

bwe@Mark:4:19 @ But they think about the things of this world. They want to get money and other things to be happy. These things push the message out of their hearts. No good comes from it.

bwe@Mark:4:26 @ And Jesus said, The kingdom of God is like this. A man sows some seed in the ground.

bwe@Mark:4:31 @ It is like this. A mustard seed is the smallest seed that is ever planted in the earth.

bwe@Mark:4:33 @ Jesus told the people many stories like this. He told them as much of Gods words as they were able to understand.

bwe@Mark:4:34 @ He did not tell them anything without a story. When he was alone with his disciples, he told them the meaning of the stories.

bwe@Mark:4:35 @ In the evening of that day, Jesus said to his disciples, Let us cross over to the other side of the sea.

bwe@Mark:4:38 @ Jesus was in the back end of the boat, sleeping with his head on a pillow. The disciples woke him up. Master, they shouted. We will die! Do you not care?

bwe@Mark:4:41 @ The disciples were surprised. They said to each other, What kind of man is this? Even the wind and the sea obey him.

bwe@Mark:5:8 @ He said this because Jesus had said to him, You bad spirit, come out of the man.

bwe@Mark:5:22 @ One of the rulers of the meeting house came to him. His name was Jairus. When he saw Jesus, he kneeled down before him.

bwe@Mark:5:27 @ When she heard of Jesus, she came among the people behind him. Then she reached out and touched his clothes.

bwe@Mark:5:28 @ She said to herself, If only I touch his clothes, I will be well.

bwe@Mark:5:31 @ But his disciples said to him, You see all these people pushing around you. Why do you ask, "Who touched me?"

bwe@Mark:5:37 @ Jesus did not let anyone go with him only Peter, James, and his brother John.

bwe@Mark:5:43 @ Jesus said, Do not tell anyone about this. Give the girl something to eat.

bwe@Mark:6:1 @ Jesus left that place and went back to his home town. His disciples went with him.

bwe@Mark:6:2 @ On the Sabbath day he began to teach in the meeting house again. Many people who heard him were very much surprised and said, Where did he learn all this? Where did he get the power to do these big works?

bwe@Mark:6:3 @ Is he not the carpenter? Is not Mary his mother? Are not James, Joseph, Judas, and Simon his brothers? Are not his sisters here with us? The people did not understand Jesus.

bwe@Mark:6:4 @ Jesus said to them, Other people honour a man who is a prophet of God. But the people in his own country, his own home, and his family, do not honour him.

bwe@Mark:6:5 @ Jesus could not do any big works in that place. But he put his hands on a few sick people and healed them.

bwe@Mark:6:17 @ Herod had sent his people to catch John. They tied him and put him in prison to please Herodias. Herod had married her, but she was his brother Philips wife.

bwe@Mark:6:20 @ So Herodias hated John. She wanted to kill him. But she could not because Herod liked John. He knew that John did what was right and was a good man. So he kept John safe. When he heard John speak he was troubled in his heart, and yet he was glad to hear him.

bwe@Mark:6:21 @ rod made a feast on his birthday. He called all his rulers and the captains and the leaders of Galilee to come to the feast.

bwe@Mark:6:22 @ The daughter of Herodias came in and danced for them. This pleased Herod and the people at the feast. Then the king said to the girl, Ask me for anything you want and I will give it to you.

bwe@Mark:6:29 @ When Johns disciples heard of it, they came and took his body and buried it.

bwe@Mark:6:35 @ When it was late in the day, his disciples came to him. They said, This is a lonely place and the time is late.

bwe@Mark:6:56 @ They laid sick people by the road in villages, towns, and farms and every place he went. They begged him to let them touch his clothes. And all the people who touched him were healed.

bwe@Mark:7:6 @ Jesus said to them, Isaiah spoke the truth about you people! You are not true to yourselves! He wrote about you this way: "These people respect me with their mouths. But their hearts are far from me. They do not mean it in their hearts when they worship me. Their teachings are only words of men."

bwe@Mark:7:10 @ Moses said, "Respect your father and your mother. Anyone who says wrong things to his father or his mother will die."

bwe@Mark:7:12 @ So you stop him from doing anything for his father and mother.

bwe@Mark:7:17 @ Jesus left the people and went into a house. His disciples asked him the meaning of the story.

bwe@Mark:7:18 @ He said, Do you still not understand? Do you not know this? What goes into a person from the outside cannot make a person dirty.

bwe@Mark:7:19 @ It does not go into his heart, but into his stomach, and then it goes out of the body. By saying this, Jesus meant that food does not make a person dirty.

bwe@Mark:7:28 @ Jesus said to her, Because you have said this, you may go home. The bad spirit has gone out of your daughter.

bwe@Mark:7:31 @ The people brought a man to Jesus who could not hear and could not talk well. They begged Jesus to put his hand on him.

bwe@Mark:7:32 @ So Jesus took him away alone. He put his fingers in the mans ears. Then he spat and touched the mans tongue.

bwe@Mark:7:34 @ Right away the mans ears were opened and his tongue was made free. He could talk well.

bwe@Mark:8:1 @ Again at that time many, many people came together. They had nothing to eat. Jesus called his disciples. He said,

bwe@Mark:8:4 @ His disciples answered, Where can anyone get enough food in this lonely place to feed so many people?

bwe@Mark:8:10 @ Jesus sent them away. Then right away he got in the boat with his disciples and went to the country around Dalmanutha.

bwe@Mark:8:12 @ He sighed deeply in his spirit and said, Why do people today want a sign? I tell you the truth. No sign will be given to them.

bwe@Mark:8:23 @ Jesus took the blind man by the hand and led him out of the village. He spat on his eyes and put his hands on him. Then he asked, Do you see anything?

bwe@Mark:8:25 @ Jesus put his hands on him again. He made him look up. Then he was healed and could see everybody clearly.

bwe@Mark:8:26 @ Jesus sent the man away to his home. Do not go into the village and do not tell it to anyone, he said.

bwe@Mark:8:27 @ Jesus went with his disciples to the villages in Caesarea Philippi. On the way he asked his disciples, Who do people say that I am?

bwe@Mark:8:32 @ Jesus said this very plainly. Peter took him to one side and began to tell him not to say such things.

bwe@Mark:8:34 @ Jesus called the people and the disciples to him. He said, If anyone wants to come with me he must leave what he himself wants to do. He must be ready to carry his own cross and come with me.

bwe@Mark:8:35 @ Anyone who tries to keep his life will lose it. And anyone who gives up his life for my sake and for the sake of the good news will find it.

bwe@Mark:8:36 @ What good will it do a man if he gets the whole world for himself but loses his soul?

bwe@Mark:8:37 @ What can a person give to get back his soul? People have gone away from God and are full of wrong ways. If anyone in this time is ashamed of me and the things I say, the Son of Man also will be ashamed of that person when he comes. The Son of Man will come with his holy angels, and be great like his Father.

bwe@Mark:9:2 @ Six days after this, Jesus took Peter, James, and John with him. He led them up a hill by themselves. Jesus was changed in front of them.

bwe@Mark:9:3 @ His clothes were white like light. No person on earth could make them so white.

bwe@Mark:9:5 @ Then Peter said to Jesus, Master, this is a good place for us. We will make three places, one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah.

bwe@Mark:9:7 @ Then a cloud came over them. A voice in the cloud said, This is my dear Son. Listen to him.

bwe@Mark:9:16 @ Jesus asked his disciples, What are you talking about with them?

bwe@Mark:9:18 @ Wherever it takes hold of him, it throws him around. It makes him foam at his mouth. It makes him make noises with his teeth. He is getting weak and thin. I asked your disciples to drive the bad spirit out, but they could not do it.

bwe@Mark:9:20 @ So they brought the boy to him. As soon as the bad spirit saw him, he threw the boy around. The boy fell on the ground and rolled around. Foam was coming from his mouth.

bwe@Mark:9:21 @ Jesus asked the father, How long has he had this spirit? He answered, Since he was a child.

bwe@Mark:9:24 @ Right away the father of the child, with tears in his eyes, said loudly, I do believe! Help me to believe more!

bwe@Mark:9:27 @ But Jesus took his hand and helped him to get up. The boy stood up.

bwe@Mark:9:28 @ Jesus went into the house. His disciples were alone with him. They asked him, Why could we not drive out the bad spirit?

bwe@Mark:9:29 @ Jesus said to them, This kind of bad spirit does not come out unless people talk to God and fast.

bwe@Mark:9:31 @ He taught his disciples. He said to them, The Son of Man will be given over to men. They will kill him. When he is killed, he will rise after three days.

bwe@Mark:9:36 @ Jesus took a child and had him stand in front of them. Then he took the child in his arms and said,

bwe@Mark:9:37 @ If anyone takes in a child like this for my sake, he takes in me. If anyone takes in me, he takes in the One who sent me.

bwe@Mark:9:41 @ I tell you the truth. If anyone gives you a cup of water to drink because you belong to Christ, he will not lose his reward

bwe@Mark:9:42 @ These little children believe in me. If anyone makes one of them do wrong, he will be punished. He will have worse trouble than if a big stone were tied to his neck and he were thrown into the deep sea.

bwe@Mark:10:2 @ The Pharisees came to him and asked, Is it right for a man to send his wife away from him? They asked this to test Jesus.

bwe@Mark:10:7 @ That is why a man must leave his father and mother and stay with his wife.

bwe@Mark:10:10 @ When they were in the house, the disciples asked Jesus about this matter.

bwe@Mark:10:11 @ So Jesus said, If any man sends away his wife and marries another woman, he commits adultery against her. <FI>He takes another woman who is not his wife.<Fi>

bwe@Mark:10:13 @ They brought children to Jesus. They wanted him to put his hands on them. The disciples tried to stop the people.

bwe@Mark:10:16 @ Jesus took the children up in his arms. He put his hands on them and blessed them.

bwe@Mark:10:23 @ Then Jesus looked around at his disciples and said to them, It is very hard for rich people to enter the kingdom of God.

bwe@Mark:10:24 @ The disciples were surprised at his words. But Jesus said again, Children, it is very hard for people who trust in riches to enter the kingdom of God.

bwe@Mark:10:30 @ Jesus said, I tell you the truth. If any man has left his house, or his brothers, or his sisters, his mother, or his father, or his children, or farms, for my sake and for the sake of the good news, he will receive his pay in this life. He will have a hundred times as many houses, and brothers, and sisters, and mothers, and children, and farms. He will have trouble also. But in the next world he will live for ever.

bwe@Mark:10:32 @ Jesus and his disciples were on the road to Jerusalem. Jesus was walking in front of them. The disciples were surprised. And the people who came behind were afraid. He took the twelve disciples and began to tell them what was going to happen to him.

bwe@Mark:10:45 @ The Son of Man did not come to have others help him. But he came to help others. He came to give his life to make many people free.

bwe@Mark:10:46 @ Then they came to Jericho. As Jesus and his disciples left Jericho, many people followed him. A blind man named Bartimaeus, the son of Timaeus, was sitting by the road. He was begging for money.

bwe@Mark:10:50 @ The man threw off his coat, jumped up, and went to Jesus.

bwe@Mark:11:1 @ They came to Bethphage and Bethany, near Jerusalem by the hill called Olives. Then he sent two of his disciples ahead.

bwe@Mark:11:3 @ If anyone asks you, "Why are you doing this?" tell him, "The Lord needs it. He will send it back soon."

bwe@Mark:11:14 @ Jesus said to the tree, No one will ever eat a fig from you again! His disciples heard what he said.

bwe@Mark:11:18 @ The chief priests and scribes heard what he said. They wanted to find some way to kill him. They feared Jesus because all the people were surprised at his teaching.

bwe@Mark:11:19 @ In the evening Jesus and his disciples went out of the city.

bwe@Mark:11:23 @ I tell you the truth. Anyone may say to this hill, "Go and jump into the sea." He must not doubt in his heart, but he must believe that he will have the things he asks for and he will have them.

bwe@Mark:12:2 @ At harvest time the owner sent one his servants to get some of the fruit from the farm.

bwe@Mark:12:4 @ He sent another servant. They hurt this one also, and cut his head. The things they did to him were very wrong.

bwe@Mark:12:6 @ There was one left. He was his own son. He sent him last. He said, "They will respect my son."

bwe@Mark:12:7 @ But the men said to each other, "This is the one who will have everything when his father dies. Let us kill him. Then everything will belong to us."

bwe@Mark:12:8 @ They killed him and threw his body outside the farm.

bwe@Mark:12:10 @ Have you not read this writing: "The stone which the builders would not use is now the chief stone of the corner. The Lord did this. It looks wonderful to us."?

bwe@Mark:12:12 @ They tried to catch Jesus but they feared the people. They knew that Jesus had spoken this against them. So they left him and went away.

bwe@Mark:12:16 @ They brought one to him. He asked, Whose picture and name is this? They answered, Caesars.

bwe@Mark:12:19 @ Teacher, they said, Moses gave us this law: if a man dies and leaves a wife but no children, then his brother must marry the wife and raise a family for his brother.

bwe@Mark:12:31 @ The second law is this: "Love your neighbour as you love yourself." No law is greater than these laws.

bwe@Mark:12:37 @ So David calls Christ his Lord. How can Christ be Davids son? Most of the people were glad to hear Jesus teaching.

bwe@Mark:12:43 @ Jesus called his disciples. He said, I tell you the truth. This poor woman has given more money than all the other people.

bwe@Mark:13:1 @ When Jesus was leaving the temple, one of his disciples said, Look Master, see those big stones and the wonderful houses!

bwe@Mark:13:4 @ They said, Tell us, when will this happen? What will be the sign when these things are going to be done?

bwe@Mark:13:12 @ A brother will take his brother to be killed. A father will take his child. The children will talk against their father and mother and have them killed.

bwe@Mark:13:14 @ Daniel the Man of God said that people would put something very bad in the temple. (Let the one who reads this understand it.) When that happens, the people in Judea must go quickly to the hills.

bwe@Mark:13:20 @ No person would be saved if the Lord did not make the time of trouble shorter. He will make it shorter for the sake of his chosen people.

bwe@Mark:13:27 @ He will send out the angels to gather his chosen people. They will gather them from everywhere all over the earth.

bwe@Mark:13:34 @ It is like a man who went to a country far away. He left his home and told each one of his servants what work he must do. Then he told the man who guards the door to watch.

bwe@Mark:13:37 @ What I say to you I say to everybody, and this is "Watch".

bwe@Mark:14:4 @ Some people there were angry. They said, Why was this oil wasted like that?

bwe@Mark:14:5 @ The oil might have been sold for a lot of money. Then the money could have been given to poor people. They said to the woman, You should not have done this!

bwe@Mark:14:12 @ It was the first day of the feast with bread that has no yeast in it. The sheep had to be killed for the Passover Feast. His disciples asked Jesus Where do you want us to make ready for you to eat the Passover Feast?

bwe@Mark:14:13 @ He sent two of his disciples and said to them, Go into the city. There you will meet a man who is carrying a pot of water. Follow him.

bwe@Mark:14:20 @ Jesus answered them, It is one of you twelve. It is the one who puts his hand in the same dish with me.

bwe@Mark:14:22 @ As they were eating, Jesus took some bread. He thanked God for it and broke it. Then he gave it to the disciples and said, Take this bread and eat it. It is my body.

bwe@Mark:14:24 @ Then he said to them, This is my blood. It is given for many people. It makes the agreement strong.

bwe@Mark:14:27 @ Jesus said to them, All of you will leave me this night. the holy writings say, "I will kill the one who takes care of the sheep. And the sheep will run away."

bwe@Mark:14:30 @ Jesus said, I tell you the truth. This very night, before the cock calls two times, you will say three times that you do not know me.

bwe@Mark:14:32 @ Then they came to a place called Gethsemane. Jesus said to his disciples, Sit here. I will go and talk with God.

bwe@Mark:14:35 @ Jesus went on a little farther. He fell on the ground and asked God that, if it could be so, this big trouble might pass by him.

bwe@Mark:14:36 @ He said, Oh, my Father, you can do all things. Take this cup away from me. But do not do what I want, but what you want.

bwe@Mark:14:38 @ All of you must watch and talk with God so that you will not do wrong. A persons heart can want to do it, but his body is weak.

bwe@Mark:14:43 @ While he was saying this, Judas came. He was one of the twelve disciples. Many people came with him. They had long knives or swords and big sticks. The chief priests, the scribes, and the leaders had sent them.

bwe@Mark:14:47 @ One of the men standing by took his sword. He cut off the ear of the high priests servant.

bwe@Mark:14:56 @ Many people came and said things that were not true. But one said this thing and the other said that thing.

bwe@Mark:14:58 @ They said, We heard him say, "I will break down this temple which people have built with hands. In three days I will build another temple but not with hands."

bwe@Mark:14:60 @ The high priest stood up among the people and asked Jesus, Have you no answer? What do you have to say about this? They have said something against you.

bwe@Mark:14:63 @ Then the high priest tore his clothes and said, We do not need any more proof against him.

bwe@Mark:14:65 @ Some people began to spit on him. They covered his face and hit him. They laughed at him and said, Tell us if you know who hit you! The guards took him away and hit him as they went.

bwe@Mark:14:69 @ A girl saw Peter there and said to the other people standing by, This man is one of them.

bwe@Mark:14:71 @ Then Peter began to curse and say bad words. He said, I do not know this man you are talking about!

bwe@Mark:15:5 @ But Jesus said nothing. Pilate was very much surprised about this.

bwe@Mark:15:17 @ They put a red gown on Jesus. They made a big ring of thorns like a crown and put it on his head.

bwe@Mark:15:20 @ When they had made fun of him, they took off the red gown and put his own clothes on him again. Then they took Jesus out of the city to nail him to a cross.

bwe@Mark:15:21 @ man was coming in from the farms. His name was Simon. He was born in the country of Cyrene. Alexander and Rufus were his sons. The soldiers caught Simon and made him carry Jesus cross.

bwe@Mark:15:39 @ The captain who stood in front of Jesus saw that he died. He said, Surely, this man was Gods Son.

bwe@Mark:16:7 @ Go and tell his disciples and Peter. Tell them he is going to Galilee before you. You will see him there as he said to you.

bwe@Mark:16:12 @ After this, Jesus came to two disciples. He looked like a different person. They were walking out in the country.

bwe@Luke:1:8 @ Zechariah was doing his work one day as a priest to God. It was time for his group to do the work in the temple.

bwe@Luke:1:9 @ The priests had a certain way of dividing their work. This day it was Zechariahs turn to go into the temple of the Lord and burn the incense <FI>that smells sweet when it is burned<Fi>.

bwe@Luke:1:10 @ All the people were talking to God outside the temple at this time.

bwe@Luke:1:18 @ Then Zechariah said to the angel, How can I know that this will happen? I am an old man and my wife is also old.

bwe@Luke:1:19 @ The angel answered him, I am Gabriel and I stand before God. I have been sent to talk to you and to bring you this good news.

bwe@Luke:1:20 @ Now listen. You will be silent and not be able to talk until the day that all this has happened. This is because you did not believe what I told you. At the right time all that I said will come true.

bwe@Luke:1:22 @ When he came out, he could not talk to them. They knew that he had seen something in the temple. He made signs to them with his hands and did not talk.

bwe@Luke:1:23 @ When his time for doing the work of a priest was finished, Zechariah went home.

bwe@Luke:1:24 @ After that, his wife Elizabeth found she was going to have a baby. For five months she stayed away from people.

bwe@Luke:1:25 @ She said to herself, The Lord has done this for me. At this time he has remembered me so that I need not be ashamed among people anymore.

bwe@Luke:1:27 @ The angel was sent to a young woman there. Her name was Mary. She was promised to a man named Joseph, to be his wife. He was of Davids family line.

bwe@Luke:1:29 @ What the angel said troubled Mary. She wondered what this greeting meant.

bwe@Luke:1:32 @ He will be a great man. He will be called the Son of the Highest One <FI>a name for God<Fi>. The Lord God will make him king where his father David was king.

bwe@Luke:1:34 @ Then Mary said to the angel, How can this happen? I have no husband.

bwe@Luke:1:36 @ Your cousin Elizabeth is also going to have a baby son, though she is an old woman. This is the sixth month for her. She is one whom people said would not have a baby.

bwe@Luke:1:48 @ He has remembered his servant even though she is not a great person. From now on all people of all times will say God has blessed me.

bwe@Luke:1:49 @ He who has all power has done a big work for me. His name is holy.

bwe@Luke:1:51 @ He has shown how strong he is with his arm. He has taken away people who were proud in their hearts.

bwe@Luke:1:54 @ He has helped his servant Israel.

bwe@Luke:1:55 @ He has remembered to be kind just as he said to our fathers of long ago. He promised to be kind to Abraham and his childrens children for ever.

bwe@Luke:1:59 @ On the eighth day people came to circumcise <FI>make a special mark on<Fi> the child. They were going to name him Zechariah like his father.

bwe@Luke:1:60 @ But his mother said, No, his name is to be John.

bwe@Luke:1:63 @ He asked for something to write on. He wrote, His name is John. They were all surprised.

bwe@Luke:1:64 @ Right then he opened his mouth and his tongue was free. He began to speak and to praise God.

bwe@Luke:1:66 @ All those who heard them thought much about them. They said, What will this child be some day? They said this because the power of the Lord was with him.

bwe@Luke:1:67 @ Then his father Zechariah was filled with the Holy Spirit and spoke words from God.

bwe@Luke:1:68 @ He said, Praise the Lord God of Israel! He has remembered his people, and set them free.

bwe@Luke:1:69 @ He has chosen one from the family of his servant David. He has given him power to save us.

bwe@Luke:1:70 @ That is what he promised through his holy prophets of God long ago.

bwe@Luke:1:72 @ He said he would be kind to our fathers. He said he would remember his agreement with them.

bwe@Luke:1:76 @ You, my child, will be called the prophet or messenger of the Highest One. You will go ahead of the Lord to make his way ready.

bwe@Luke:1:77 @ You will tell his people how to be saved by being forgiven for their wrong ways.

bwe@Luke:2:2 @ This was the first time names were written in a book in this way. Quirinius was the ruler of Syria at that time.

bwe@Luke:2:3 @ Everyone went to his home town to have his name written in the book.

bwe@Luke:2:4 @ Joseph also went from the town of Nazareth in Galilee to the town of Bethlehem in Judea. This was Davids town, and Joseph came from Davids family line.

bwe@Luke:2:5 @ He went to have his name written in the book. Joseph took Mary with him. She was promised to Joseph to be his wife. She was going to have a baby.

bwe@Luke:2:7 @ This was her first child, a son. She wrapped him in a cloth and laid him in a box where cows feed. There was no room for them in the house for strangers.

bwe@Luke:2:10 @ The angel said to them, Fear not! Listen, I bring you good news! This news will make you very glad. It is for all people.

bwe@Luke:2:12 @ This is the way you will know him. You will find a baby wrapped in a cloth, lying in a box where cows feed.

bwe@Luke:2:23 @ This is what is written in the law of the Lord: Every boy who is the first child of his mother will be holy for the Lord.

bwe@Luke:2:28 @ Then Simeon took Jesus in his arms and praised God.

bwe@Luke:2:31 @ You have made this way for all peoples to be saved.

bwe@Luke:2:41 @ Every year his parents went to Jerusalem for the Passover Feast <FI>a special time to thank God<Fi>.

bwe@Luke:2:43 @ After the days of the feast were finished, they started home. But the boy Jesus stayed in Jerusalem. His parents did not know it.

bwe@Luke:2:47 @ All who heard him were surprised at what he knew and his answers.

bwe@Luke:2:48 @ His parents were surprised when they saw him. His mother said to him, Son, why have you done this to us? Your father and I have been looking for you. We have been very troubled.

bwe@Luke:2:51 @ He went with them back to Nazareth and obeyed them. But his mother remembered all these things.

bwe@Luke:3:4 @ Isaiah, the prophet of God, wrote about him long ago in his book: A man is calling out in the desert: "Make the way ready for the Lord. Make the road straight for him.

bwe@Luke:3:16 @ John said to them all, I baptise you with water. But another person is coming. He is greater than I am. I am not good enough to untie his shoe strings. He will baptise you with the Holy spirit and with fire.

bwe@Luke:3:17 @ He has a cleaning fan in his hand and will fan his grain very clean. He will put the grain into his storehouse. But he will burn the chaff in the fire that never goes out.

bwe@Luke:3:19 @ John told Herod the ruler that he had done wrong things. He told him he should not have his brothers wife, Herodias. He also told him about all the other wrong things he had done.

bwe@Luke:3:23 @ Jesus was about thirty years old when he began his work. The people thought he was Josephs son. Here are the names of Jesus family line: Joseph, Heli, Matthat, Levi, Melchi, Janna, Joseph, Mattathiah, Amos, Nahum, Esli, Naggai, Maath, Mattathiah, Semei, Joseph, Judah, Joannas, Rhesa, Zerubbabel, Shealtiel, Neri, Melchi, Addi, Cosam, Elmodam, Er, Jose, Eliezer, Jorim, Matthat, Levi, Simeon, Judah, Joseph, Jonan, Eliakim, Melea, Menen, Mattathah, Nathan, David, Jesse, Obed, Boaz, Salmon, Nahshon, Amminadab, Ram, Hezron, Perez, Judah, Jacob, Isaac, Abraham, Terah, Nahor, Serug, Reu, Peleg, Eber, Shelah, Cainan, Arphaxad, Shem, Noah, Lamech, Methuselah, Enoch, Jared, Mahalalel, Cainan, Enosh, Seth, Adam. Adam came from God.

bwe@Luke:4:3 @ The devil said to him, If you are Gods Son, tell this stone to be changed into bread.

bwe@Luke:4:6 @ He said to Jesus, I will give you the right to rule over all these countries. They will make you great. All this has been given to me. I can give it to anyone I want.

bwe@Luke:4:10 @ The holy writings say, "God will tell his angels to take care of you."

bwe@Luke:4:13 @ When the devil finished all his testing, he left him for a while.

bwe@Luke:4:22 @ They all began to talk about him. They were surprised to hear him say such good words. They asked, Is not this Josephs son?

bwe@Luke:4:23 @ Then Jesus said, I know that you will say this to me "Doctor, heal yourself. We have heard what you did in Capernaum. Do the same things here in your own country."

bwe@Luke:4:24 @ And he went on to say, I tell you the truth. No prophet of God is accepted by the people in his own country.

bwe@Luke:4:28 @ When they heard this, all the people in the meeting house were very angry.

bwe@Luke:4:32 @ They were surprised at his teaching because he taught them as if he had the right to teach them.

bwe@Luke:4:36 @ All the people were very much surprised. They said to each other, What kind of talk is this? He can make bad spirits obey him. He tells them to come out and they come out.

bwe@Luke:4:40 @ When the sun went down, the people brought to Jesus all who were sick in any way. He put his hands on every one of them and healed them.

bwe@Luke:4:43 @ But he said to them, I must tell the good news to the people in other towns also. It is the news of Gods kingdom. I was sent to tell this.

bwe@Luke:5:6 @ When they did this, they caught many fish. Their nets were so full they were breaking.

bwe@Luke:5:8 @ When Simon Peter saw this, he kneeled down in front of Jesus. He said, Lord, leave me because I am a bad man!

bwe@Luke:5:12 @ Jesus was in one of the cities and a man was there who had leprosy, a bad skin disease. When he saw Jesus, he bowed his face to the ground. He begged Jesus saying, Sir, I know you can heal me if you want to.

bwe@Luke:5:13 @ Jesus put out his hand and touched the man. He said, I want you to be healed. Right away the man was free from leprosy.

bwe@Luke:5:14 @ Jesus said to him, Do not tell anyone about this. But go and let the priest look at you. Moses gave a law about the sacrifice you must give when you are healed. Give it to prove to the people that you are healed.

bwe@Luke:5:18 @ Some men brought a sick man on his bed. The man could not move his arms or legs. They tried to bring him in and put him in front of Jesus.

bwe@Luke:5:21 @ The scribes and Pharisees began to talk about this. They said, Who is this man that is not giving respect to God? No one but God can forgive anyone for the wrong things they have done.

bwe@Luke:5:25 @ Right away the man stood up in front of them. He took up his bed and went home praising God.

bwe@Luke:5:27 @ After this, Jesus went out. He saw a tax collector named Levi. Levi was sitting at the place where people came to pay taxes. Jesus said to him Come with me.

bwe@Luke:5:29 @ Levi made a big dinner at his house for Jesus. Many tax collectors and other people were sitting at the table with them.

bwe@Luke:6:1 @ Jesus was walking through the grain fields on a Sabbath day. His disciples picked some of the grain as they went along. They cleaned it by rubbing it in their hands, and ate it.

bwe@Luke:6:3 @ Jesus answered them, Have you not read what David did? He and his men were hungry.

bwe@Luke:6:13 @ In the morning he called his disciples to him. He chose twelve of them and called them apostles <FI>special messengers<Fi>.

bwe@Luke:6:14 @ They were Simon, whom Jesus called Peter, and his brother Andrew, James and John, Philip and Bartholomew, Matthew and Thomas, James the son of Alphaeus, and Simon the freedom fighter, Judas the son of James, and Judas Iscariot, the one who gave Jesus over to people who hated him.

bwe@Luke:6:17 @ Then Jesus came down the hill with them and stood on the flat ground. Many people came. There were many of his disciples. And there were many people from all parts of Judea, and from Jerusalem, and from the seaside of Tyre and Sidon. They came to hear him and to be healed because they were sick.

bwe@Luke:6:20 @ Jesus looked at his disciples and said, God will make happy you who are poor. The kingdom of God is for you.

bwe@Luke:6:40 @ The one who learns is not better than his teacher. But every one who learns will be like his teacher when his teacher has finished teaching him.

bwe@Luke:6:45 @ A good man has stored up good things in his heart, so he says good things. A bad man has stored up wrong things in his heart, so he will say wrong things. The mouth will say what is in the heart.

bwe@Luke:6:49 @ A man hears what I say but does not obey me. He is like a man who built his house on top of the ground. He did not dig down deep. The water beat hard against it and it fell with a loud noise!

bwe@Luke:7:3 @ The officer heard of Jesus. So he sent some of the leaders of the Jews to him. He asked him to come and heal his servant.

bwe@Luke:7:4 @ They came to Jesus and begged him very much. They said, He is a good man. You should come and do this for him.

bwe@Luke:7:8 @ I myself am a man who takes orders, and I have soldiers who take orders from me. I say to one, "Go," and he goes. I say to another, "Come," and he comes. I say to my servant, "Do this," and he does it.

bwe@Luke:7:9 @ Jesus was surprised when he heard this. He turned to the people who followed him. He said, I tell you, I have not found a Jew who believes as this man does.

bwe@Luke:7:11 @ Soon after that, Jesus went to the town of Nain. His disciples and many other people went with him.

bwe@Luke:7:12 @ He came near the gate of the town. There he met people carrying out a man who had died. He was the only son of his mother. And her husband was dead too. Many people from the city were with her.

bwe@Luke:7:15 @ The dead man sat up and began to talk. Jesus gave him to his mother.

bwe@Luke:7:16 @ Everyone was very much surprised. They praised God. They said, A great prophet of God has come to us. God has remembered his people.

bwe@Luke:7:18 @ John also heard about all these things from his disciples.

bwe@Luke:7:23 @ Happy is the person who is not troubled in his heart about me.

bwe@Luke:7:34 @ The Son of Man came. He eats and drinks. You say, "This man eats and drinks too much! He is a friend of tax collectors and bad people!"

bwe@Luke:7:38 @ She stood behind Jesus by his feet, and she was crying. She began to wash his feet with her tears and wiped them with her hair. Then she kissed his feet and put oil on them.

bwe@Luke:7:39 @ The Pharisee who had asked Jesus to his house saw this. He said to himself, If this man were a prophet of God, he would know what kind of woman is touching him. She is a bad woman.

bwe@Luke:7:44 @ Then he turned towards the woman. He said to Simon, Do you see this woman? I came into your house. You did not give me water to wash my feet. But she has washed my feet with her tears and wiped them with her hair.

bwe@Luke:7:49 @ Then those who were at the table with him began to say to themselves, Who is this man? He even forgives people for the wrong things they have done.

bwe@Luke:8:1 @ Soon after this, Jesus went through the cities and towns. He told the people Gods word about the good news of the kingdom of God. The twelve disciples were with him.

bwe@Luke:8:5 @ He said, A man went out to sow his seed. As he sowed it, some seed fell on the road. People stepped on the seed. Birds ate it.

bwe@Luke:8:8 @ But some seed fell on good ground and it grew well. Those plants gave a hundred times as much grain as the man sowed. When Jesus had said this, he called out, Everyone who has ears to hear, listen!

bwe@Luke:8:9 @ His disciples asked Jesus what this story meant.

bwe@Luke:8:14 @ Some seeds fell among the weeds. They are like people who hear the word. But they think about the things of this world. They want to get money and things to be happy in this life. As they go on in life, these things push the message out of their hearts and no good comes from them.

bwe@Luke:8:19 @ The mother of Jesus and his brothers came to him. They could not reach him because there were so many people around him.

bwe@Luke:8:22 @ One day Jesus got into a boat with his disciples. He said to them, Let us cross over to the other side of the sea. So they started out.

bwe@Luke:8:25 @ He said to the disciples, Why do you not believe God? They were afraid and surprised. They said to each other, What kind of man is this? He tells the wind and the sea what to do and they obey him.

bwe@Luke:8:29 @ He said this because Jesus had told the bad spirit to come out of the man. Many times the spirit had taken hold of the man. People had guarded him. They had tied him with chains and strong ropes. But he broke the chains and ropes. The bad spirit drove him into the desert.

bwe@Luke:8:30 @ Jesus asked him, What is your name? He answered, My name is An Army. He said this because many bad spirits had gone into him.

bwe@Luke:8:41 @ A man named Jairus came to him. He was a ruler in the meeting house. He bowed down in front of Jesus and begged him to come to his house.

bwe@Luke:8:44 @ She came behind Jesus and touched his clothes. The bleeding stopped right away.

bwe@Luke:9:1 @ Jesus called his twelve disciples together. He gave them power over all the bad spirits, and power to heal sick people.

bwe@Luke:9:9 @ Herod said, I cut off Johns head. Now who is this man of whom I hear such things? He wanted to see Jesus.

bwe@Luke:9:12 @ When it was late in the day, the twelve disciples came to him. They said, Send the people away so they can go to the towns and the farms to sleep and get something to eat. This is a lonely place.

bwe@Luke:9:14 @ There were about five thousand men. He said to his disciples, Tell the people to sit down in groups of fifty.

bwe@Luke:9:18 @ One day Jesus was alone talking to God. His disciples were there too. He asked them, Who do people say I am?

bwe@Luke:9:21 @ Jesus said to them, Do not tell this to anyone.

bwe@Luke:9:23 @ And He said to all the people, If anyone wants to come with me, he must leave what he himself wants to do. Every day he must take up his cross <FI>be ready to die<Fi> and come with me.

bwe@Luke:9:24 @ Anyone who tries to keep his life will lose it. And anyone who gives up his life for my sake will find it.

bwe@Luke:9:25 @ What good will it do a man if he gets the whole world for himself but loses his life or spoils it?

bwe@Luke:9:26 @ If anyone is ashamed of me and the things I say, the Son of man will be ashamed of that person when he comes. The Son of man will come with his holy angels and be great like his Father.

bwe@Luke:9:29 @ As he was talking with God, he was changed. His face was different. His clothes became very white and shining.

bwe@Luke:9:31 @ Light was shining from them. They talked about his leaving this world. That would happen when he was in Jerusalem.

bwe@Luke:9:34 @ As he said this, a cloud came over them. They were very much afraid when the cloud came around them.

bwe@Luke:9:35 @ A voice in the cloud said, This is my dear Son. Listen to him!

bwe@Luke:9:39 @ A bad spirit takes hold of him and he screams. It throws him around and makes him foam at his mouth. It beats him badly and does not want to leave him.

bwe@Luke:9:42 @ While he was coming, the bad spirit knocked him down and threw him around. Jesus told the spirit to stop. He healed the boy and gave him back to his father.

bwe@Luke:9:43 @ All the people were surprised to see that God has so much power. While the people were wondering about everything Jesus did, he talked to his disciples.

bwe@Luke:9:47 @ Jesus knew what they were thinking. So he took a child and put him by his side.

bwe@Luke:9:48 @ Then he said, If anyone takes in a child like this for my sake, he takes in me. And if anyone takes in me, he takes in the one who sent me. The one who takes the least or lowest place among you is the greatest.

bwe@Luke:10:1 @ After this the Lord chose seventy other men. He sent them ahead of him, two by two. He sent them to every town and village that he was going to visit.

bwe@Luke:10:2 @ He said to them, The harvest is much, but there are not many people to gather it. So talk to the Lord of this harvest and ask him to send out people to his harvest.

bwe@Luke:10:5 @ When you go into a house, first say, "May God give peace to this family."

bwe@Luke:10:7 @ Stay in that house. Eat and drink what the people give you. The one who works should have his pay for it. Do not move from one house to another house.

bwe@Luke:10:11 @ Say to the people, "We wipe off even the dust of the town that is on our feet. This will be a sign to you. But remember this, the kingdom of God has come."

bwe@Luke:10:12 @ I tell you this. On the day when people are judged, they will be punished more than the people in the city of Sodom.

bwe@Luke:10:23 @ Then Jesus turned to his disciples and said to them alone, God is blessing the eyes of people who see what you see!

bwe@Luke:10:24 @ I tell you this. Many prophets and kings wanted to see the things you see. But they did not see them. They wanted to hear the things you hear. But they did not hear them.

bwe@Luke:10:30 @ Jesus answered, A man was going from Jerusalem to Jericho. Bad men caught him on the road. They took his clothes and beat him. Then they went away and left him half dead.

bwe@Luke:10:33 @ A man from the country of Samaria was going on that road also, and came to the place. He saw the man and wanted to share in his troubles.

bwe@Luke:10:34 @ He went to him and tied up the sores he had from the beating. He washed them with oil and wine. Then he lifted the man up and set him on his own animal to ride. He took him to the house for strangers. And he cared for him.

bwe@Luke:10:35 @ The next day he gave two pieces of money to the man who was in charge of the house for strangers. He said, "Take care of this man. If it costs you more than this, I will pay you when I come back.

bwe@Luke:10:38 @ Jesus and his disciples went on their way. They came to a town. A woman named Martha took him into her home.

bwe@Luke:11:1 @ One day Jesus was in a place talking with God. When he had finished, one of his disciples said to him, Lord, teach us to talk with God as John taught his disciples.

bwe@Luke:11:8 @ I tell you this. Maybe he will not give him anything because he is his friend. But he will get up and give him what he needs because he keeps on asking for it.

bwe@Luke:11:15 @ But some of them said, This man drives out bad spirits by the help of Beelzebub, the chief of bad spirits.

bwe@Luke:11:18 @ If Satan fights against himself, how will his kingdom stand? You say I drive out bad spirits by the help of Beelzebub.

bwe@Luke:11:19 @ If I drive out bad spirits by the help of Beelzebub, by whose help do your own people drive them out? Your own people will judge you for this!

bwe@Luke:11:20 @ But if I drive out bad spirits by the help of God, then know this, Gods kingdom is here with you now.

bwe@Luke:11:21 @ A strong man has something in his hand to fight. He guards his place. He will not lose his things.

bwe@Luke:11:22 @ But when a stronger man comes, he catches the man who guards his house. He will take away what is in the mans hand. And he will take his things and give them to his friends.

bwe@Luke:11:27 @ As he said this, a woman among the people called out, Happy is your mother who gave birth to you, and fed you as a baby.

bwe@Luke:11:37 @ While Jesus was saying these things, a Pharisee asked him to come to eat at his house. So Jesus went in and sat at the table.

bwe@Luke:11:38 @ The Pharisee saw that Jesus did not wash his hands before he ate. He was surprised.

bwe@Luke:11:48 @ In this way you show you agree to the things your fathers did. They killed the prophets, and you build places to bury them.

bwe@Luke:12:18 @ So he said, "This is what I will do. I will break down my storehouses and build bigger ones. I will keep in them all the food and everything I have.

bwe@Luke:12:22 @ Jesus said to his disciples, So I tell you this. Do not be troubled about what you will eat to keep alive. Do not be troubled about clothes to wear on your body.

bwe@Luke:12:39 @ And remember this. If the owner of a house knew at what time a man would come to steal, he would not let the man break into his house.

bwe@Luke:12:41 @ Peter said, Lord, are you telling this story for us or for all the people?

bwe@Luke:12:42 @ The Lord said, Who is like a wise servant who can be trusted? His master will put him in charge of his other servants. He gives them food to eat at the right time.

bwe@Luke:12:43 @ His master will bless that servant if he is doing this when he comes!

bwe@Luke:12:44 @ I tell you the truth. His master will put him in charge of all that he has

bwe@Luke:12:46 @ If he does that, his master will come on a day when he is not looking for him. He will not know the time when his master is coming. His master will punish him very much and put him away with those he cannot trust.

bwe@Luke:12:47 @ A servant knew what his master wanted. But he was not ready. He did not do what his master wanted him to do. So he will be beaten much.

bwe@Luke:12:53 @ A father will be against his son, and the son will be against his father. The mother will be against her daughter, and the daughter will be against her mother. A mans mother will be against his wife, and his wife will be against his mother.

bwe@Luke:13:6 @ Then Jesus told this story: A man had a fruit tree on his farm. He came to look for fruit on it, but did not find any.

bwe@Luke:13:7 @ He said to the man who cared for the trees, "For three years I have come to look for fruit on this tree, but I have not found any. Cut it down. Why should it spoil my farmland?"

bwe@Luke:13:13 @ Jesus put his hands on her, and right away she stood up straight. And she praised God.

bwe@Luke:13:15 @ The Lord said to him, You are not true to yourselves! Every one of you unties his cow or horse and takes it to the water to drink on the Sabbath day. Do you not?

bwe@Luke:13:16 @ This woman belongs to Abrahams family. Satan has tied her for eighteen years. Is it not right that she should be set free on the Sabbath day?

bwe@Luke:13:19 @ It is like this. A man took a mustard seed and planted it in his field. It grew up big like a tree. The birds came and lived in its branches.

bwe@Luke:13:21 @ It is like this. A woman took yeast and mixed it with many cups of flour. The yeast went all through the flour.

bwe@Luke:13:35 @ Now you are left alone in your house. I tell you this. You will not see me again until the time when you say, "God bless him who comes in the name of the Lord."

bwe@Luke:14:2 @ man stood in front of him. He was sick. His body was filled with water.

bwe@Luke:14:9 @ Then the man who called you both will come and say to you, "Get up and let this man sit here." Then you will be ashamed. And you will go and sit down in the last place.

bwe@Luke:14:15 @ One of those who was sitting at the table heard this. He said, Happy is the person who will eat in the kingdom of God!

bwe@Luke:14:17 @ When the feast was ready, he sent his servant to tell the people who had been asked. He said, "Come. Everything is ready."

bwe@Luke:14:21 @ The servant came and told his master. Then the master was very angry. He said to his servant, "Go out quickly. Go on all the streets in the city. Bring here people who are poor, hurt, blind, or lame."

bwe@Luke:14:26 @ Many people were going with Jesus. He turned to them and said, If any man comes to me, he must hate his father and mother, his wife and children, his brothers and sister. Yes, he must hate himself too. If he does not, he cannot be my disciple.

bwe@Luke:14:27 @ If anyone does not carry his cross <FI>is not ready to die<Fi> and come with me, he cannot be my disciple.

bwe@Luke:14:30 @ They will say, "This man started to build a house and could not finish it."

bwe@Luke:15:2 @ The Pharisees and scribes did not like it. And they said to each other, This man is glad to have bad people come. He eats with them.

bwe@Luke:15:3 @ So Jesus told them this story.

bwe@Luke:15:4 @ He said, Which one of you will not do this? A man has a hundred sheep. He loses one of them. He leaves the ninety-nine in the wilderness, and he goes to look for the one that is lost. He looks until he finds it.

bwe@Luke:15:5 @ And when he has found it, he is very glad. He carries it on his back.

bwe@Luke:15:6 @ When he comes home, he calls his friends and neighbours to come. He says, "Be glad with me! I have found my lost sheep."

bwe@Luke:15:8 @ What woman will not do this? She has ten pieces of silver money. If she loses one of them, she lights a lamp and sweeps the house. She looks for the money until she finds it.

bwe@Luke:15:12 @ The younger son said to his father, "Father, give me my part of what will belong to me." So his father divided all he had between the two sons.

bwe@Luke:15:13 @ After a few days, the younger son packed up his things. He left home and went to a country far away. There he spent his money in foolish and wrong ways.

bwe@Luke:15:15 @ So he went to stay with a man in the country who had a farm. The man sent him out to his farm to feed the pigs.

bwe@Luke:15:20 @ So he got up and went to his father. While he was still far away, his father saw him. He loved him and wanted to share in his troubles. He ran and put his arms around him and kissed him.

bwe@Luke:15:22 @ But his father said to his servants, "Go quickly and bring the best clothes. Dress him. Put a ring on his hand. Put shoes on his feet.

bwe@Luke:15:24 @ This is my son. He was dead and now he is alive again. He was lost and is found." And they began to have a good time.

bwe@Luke:15:28 @ But the older son was angry. He would not go into the house. His father came out and begged him to come in.

bwe@Luke:15:29 @ But the son said to his father, "Look. I have worked hard for you for many years. I have always done everything you told me to do. And yet you never even gave me a young goat to make a feast with my friends.

bwe@Luke:15:30 @ But now this son of yours has come back. He has spent all your money and was with bad women. And yet you kill the fat calf for him!"

bwe@Luke:16:1 @ Jesus also talked to his disciples. He said, A rich man had a manager in charge of his things. People told the rich man that the manager was wasting his things.

bwe@Luke:16:2 @ he called the manager and asked him, "What is this I hear about you? Tell me what you have done. You cannot be my manager any more."

bwe@Luke:16:5 @ So he called to him everyone who owed his master something. He asked the first man, "How much do you owe my master?"

bwe@Luke:16:8 @ Then the master praised the manager who did wrong. He praised him because he did what was wise. The people of this world are wiser than the people who have the Light. They know how to get along with people like themselves.

bwe@Luke:16:9 @ I tell you this. Money may be a wrong thing, but use it to make friends for yourselves. Then when your money is spent, they will be glad to see you come into that place where people live for ever.

bwe@Luke:16:18 @ If a man sends away his wife and marries another woman, he commits adultery. And if the man marries a woman who has been sent away by her husband, he commits adultery.

bwe@Luke:16:20 @ A poor man named Lazarus was put at his door. He had many sores on his body.

bwe@Luke:16:21 @ He wanted to eat the pieces of food that fell from the rich mans table. Dogs came and licked his sores.

bwe@Luke:16:24 @ He called out, "Father Abraham, help me! Send Lazarus to dip his finger in some water and cool my tongue. This fire is very hot for me."

bwe@Luke:16:25 @ But Abraham said to him, "Son, remember this. You had a good time when you were living. Lazarus had a bad time when he was living. But now he is happy here and you are in pain.

bwe@Luke:16:28 @ I have five brothers there. Tell him to talk to them so that they will not come to this place where there is pain."

bwe@Luke:17:1 @ Jesus said to his disciples, People will make other people do wrong. But the person who makes another person do wrong will have trouble.

bwe@Luke:17:2 @ A big stone should be tied around his neck and then he should be thrown into the sea. That would be better for him than to make one of these little children do wrong.

bwe@Luke:17:6 @ The Lord said, If you believe as much as a little mustard seed, then you can say to this tree, "Come up by the roots and plant yourself in the sea." And it would obey you.

bwe@Luke:17:18 @ Is this stranger the only one who has come back to praise God?

bwe@Luke:17:22 @ Jesus said to his disciples, The time will come when you will want to see one of the days of the Son of Man. But you will not see it.

bwe@Luke:17:27 @ People ate and drank. They married and gave their daughters to be married. All this went on until the day when Noah went into his house built on a boat. Then there was much water and all the people outside the boat died.

bwe@Luke:17:31 @ On that day a man will be at the top of his house, and his things will be below. But he must not go down to get his things. In the same way a man will be in the field, but he must not go back home.

bwe@Luke:17:33 @ Anyone who wants to keep his life will lose it. And anyone who gives up his life will keep it.

bwe@Luke:17:37 @ They asked him, Where will this be, Lord? He said, The big birds that eat meat will go to the place where the dead body is.

bwe@Luke:18:5 @ But this woman is troubling me. So I will save her from her enemy. If I do not, she will keep coming until I am tired."

bwe@Luke:18:9 @ There were some people who thought they were very good. And they thought that other people were not good. Jesus told this story to them.

bwe@Luke:18:11 @ The Pharisee stood and said to himself, "God, I thank you that I am not like other men. They steal, cheat, and commit adultery. I thank you that I am not like this tax collector.

bwe@Luke:18:13 @ The tax collector stood far away. He did not even look up towards heaven. But he beat his chest, and said, "God, I am a bad man. Help me!"

bwe@Luke:18:14 @ I tell you, when this man went home, he was right with God. The other one was not. Everyone who puts himself up in a high place will be brought down to a low place. And everyone who puts himself in a low place will be brought up to a high place.

bwe@Luke:18:15 @ People brought even small children to Jesus. They wanted him to put his hands on them. When the disciples saw it, they tried to stop the people.

bwe@Luke:18:30 @ Jesus said to them, I tell you the truth. If any man has left his house, or his wife, or his brothers, or his father, or his mother, or his children for the sake of the kingdom of God, he will receive many times as much as he has left. He will receive that in this world. And in the next world he will live for ever.

bwe@Luke:18:37 @ They told him, Jesus of Nazareth is passing this way.

bwe@Luke:19:6 @ So Zacchaeus came down right then. He was glad to have Jesus come in his house.

bwe@Luke:19:7 @ When all the people saw this, they did not like it. They said, He has gone to visit a bad man.

bwe@Luke:19:9 @ Jesus said to him, The head of this house has been saved today! He also is a son of Abraham.

bwe@Luke:19:11 @ While they were listening to this, he started to tell them a story. He did so because they were near Jerusalem and the people thought that the kingdom of God would begin right away.

bwe@Luke:19:13 @ Before he left, he called ten of his servants. He gave each of them some money. He said, "Go and trade with this money until I come back."

bwe@Luke:19:14 @ His people hated him. They chose some men and sent them after him to tell the king, "We do not want this man to rule over us."

bwe@Luke:19:28 @ When Jesus had said this, he went on ahead of them towards Jerusalem.

bwe@Luke:19:29 @ He came near Bethphage and Bethany by the hill called the Mount of Olives. Then he sent two of his disciples ahead.

bwe@Luke:19:40 @ Jesus answered, I tell you, if they do not speak like this the stones will call out.

bwe@Luke:19:41 @ When Jesus came near, he saw the city. His heart was very sad and he cried.

bwe@Luke:20:3 @ He answered, I will ask you a question also. Tell me this.

bwe@Luke:20:9 @ Then Jesus began to tell the people this story. A man planted a farm. He let some men use the farm. They paid him money for the rent. Then he went to a country far away and stayed a long time.

bwe@Luke:20:10 @ At harvest time the owner sent one of his servants to the men who used the farm. He wanted to have some fruit from the farm. But the men beat the servant and sent him away without any fruit.

bwe@Luke:20:11 @ So he sent another servant. They beat this one also, and did wrong things to him. And they sent him away without any fruit.

bwe@Luke:20:12 @ He sent a servant the third time. They hurt this one also and threw him out of the farm.

bwe@Luke:20:14 @ But when the men saw him they said to each other, "This is the one who will have everything when his father dies. Let us kill him. Then everything will belong to us."

bwe@Luke:20:16 @ He will come back and kill those men. And he will give the farm to other men to use. When the chief priests and scribes heard this, they said, May it not be so!

bwe@Luke:20:17 @ But Jesus looked right at them. He said, What about this writing then? "The stone which the builders would not use is now the chief corner stone."

bwe@Luke:20:19 @ The scribes and the chief priests wanted to catch Jesus right then but they feared the people. They understood that he had told this story against them.

bwe@Luke:20:20 @ So they watched for a chance to catch him. And they sent men to spy on him. These men acted as if they were good men. They did this because they wanted to catch him in something that he said. They wanted to give him over to the ruler who would judge and punish him.

bwe@Luke:20:26 @ They were not able to catch him in anything he said in front of the people. They were surprised at his answer and they could not say anything.

bwe@Luke:20:28 @ They came to ask Jesus a question. Teacher, they said, Moses gave us this law: "If a man dies and leaves a wife but no children, then his brother must marry the wife and raise a family for his brother."

bwe@Luke:20:34 @ Jesus said to them, Men and women in this world marry.

bwe@Luke:20:37 @ Even Moses showed that people do rise from death. It is in his book where we read about the small tree which burned. Moses says that the Lord is the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.

bwe@Luke:20:44 @ So David calls Christ his Lord. How can Christ be Davids son?

bwe@Luke:20:45 @ Then Jesus talked to his disciples while all the people could hear him.

bwe@Luke:21:3 @ Jesus said, I tell you the truth. This poor woman has given more than all the other people.

bwe@Luke:21:7 @ They asked him, Teacher, when will this happen? What will be the sign when these things are going to be done?

bwe@Luke:21:13 @ This will be a chance for you to talk about me.

bwe@Luke:21:23 @ In those days it will be very hard for women who are to have a child. It will be very hard for mothers who have babies. There will be big trouble on the earth. God will show his anger to these people.

bwe@Luke:21:34 @ But take care. Do not think too much about eating, drinking, and things in this life. If you do, that day will come and catch you like a trap.

bwe@Luke:22:1 @ It was near the time for the feast with bread that has no yeast in it. This is called the Passover Feast.

bwe@Luke:22:3 @ Satan came into the heart of Judas. Judas was one of the twelve disciples. His other name was Iscariot.

bwe@Luke:22:15 @ He said to them, I have wanted very much to eat this Passover Feast with you before my troubles come.

bwe@Luke:22:16 @ I tell you this. I will not eat it again until the great feast in the kingdom of God.

bwe@Luke:22:17 @ He took the cup and thanked God. He said, Take this. All of you drink from this.

bwe@Luke:22:18 @ I tell you this. I will not drink from the fruit of the vine again until the kingdom of God comes.

bwe@Luke:22:19 @ He took some bread. He thanked God for it and broke it. He gave it to the disciples and said, This is my body, which is given for you. When you do this, then remember me.

bwe@Luke:22:20 @ In the same way he took the cup after they had eaten. He said, This cup is the new agreement made by my blood. It is given for you.

bwe@Luke:22:21 @ There is a man who will give me over to my enemies. His hand is here at the table with me.

bwe@Luke:22:23 @ The disciples began to ask each other, Which of us will do this?

bwe@Luke:22:34 @ Jesus said, I tell you this, Peter. This very day, before the cock calls, you will say three times that you do not know me.

bwe@Luke:22:36 @ He said, But this time, anyone who has money should take it and his bag too. Anyone who has no sword should sell his coat and buy one.

bwe@Luke:22:39 @ Then Jesus went out of the room and went to the hill called the Mount of Olives where he often went. His disciples went with him.

bwe@Luke:22:42 @ He said, Father, if you will, take this cup away from me. But do not do what I want but what you want.

bwe@Luke:22:44 @ His heart was troubled very much. So he talked with God more than before. His sweat was like big drops of blood falling on the ground.

bwe@Luke:22:45 @ He stopped talking with God and got up. He went to his disciples and found them sleeping because they were sad.

bwe@Luke:22:47 @ As Jesus was saying this, many men came. One of the twelve disciples, named Judas, was leading the people. He came near Jesus to kiss him.

bwe@Luke:22:48 @ Jesus said to him, Judas, will you give over the Son of Man to his enemies with a kiss?

bwe@Luke:22:50 @ One of them hit the servant of the high priest and cut off his right ear.

bwe@Luke:22:51 @ Jesus said, Just let me do this. And he touched the mans ear and healed him.

bwe@Luke:22:53 @ I was with you every day in the temple. You did not try to catch me then. But this is your time now, the time of the power of darkness.

bwe@Luke:22:56 @ A woman saw Peter sitting by the fire. She looked at him and said, This man was with him also.

bwe@Luke:22:59 @ About an hour later another person said, Surely this man was with him. He comes from Galilee.

bwe@Luke:22:64 @ They tied something over his eyes. Then they hit him in the face and said, Tell us if you know who hit you!

bwe@Luke:22:69 @ From this time on the Son of Man will sit beside God who has all power.

bwe@Luke:23:2 @ They began to make a complaint against him. They said, This man is leading our people to do wrong. He says we should not pay taxes to Caesar. He says that he is Christ, a King.

bwe@Luke:23:4 @ Pilate said to the chief priests and to the people, I find nothing wrong in this man.

bwe@Luke:23:5 @ But they said all the more, He troubles the people by his teaching. He has been teaching people in all the country of Judea. He began in Galilee and has come as far as this city.

bwe@Luke:23:6 @ When Pilate heard this, he asked, Is this man from Galilee?

bwe@Luke:23:11 @ Then Herod and his soldiers laughed at Jesus and made fun of him. He dressed him up in very fine clothes and sent him back to Pilate.

bwe@Luke:23:14 @ He said to them, You brought this man to me. You said he is leading your people to do wrong. I have asked questions here in front of you. I have found nothing wrong in this man.

bwe@Luke:23:15 @ Herod did the same. He sent him back to us. This man has done nothing for which he should die.

bwe@Luke:23:18 @ But they all shouted, Kill this man! Let Barabbas go free for us!

bwe@Luke:23:26 @ They took Jesus away. On the way, they caught a man who was coming in from the farms. His name was Simon. He was born in the country of Cyrene. They made him walk behind Jesus and carry his cross.

bwe@Luke:23:31 @ If this is what people do when the wood is new, what will they do when it is old?

bwe@Luke:23:34 @ Jesus said, Father, forgive them! They do not know what they are doing. The soldiers played a game to see how they should divide his clothes.

bwe@Luke:23:38 @ The sign that was put above Jesus head said, This is the King of the Jews.

bwe@Luke:23:41 @ It is right for us to be punished because we have done wrong things. But this man has done nothing bad.

bwe@Luke:23:46 @ Jesus called out loud, Father, I put my spirit into your hands! When he had said this, he died.

bwe@Luke:23:47 @ The captain saw all this. Then he praised God. He said, Surely, this was a good man!

bwe@Luke:23:49 @ All Jesus friends and the women who had come with him from Galilee stood far away. They saw all of this.

bwe@Luke:23:53 @ He took the body down from the cross. He wrapped it in a linen cloth and laid it in a grave cut in a rock. No one had ever been put in this grave.

bwe@Luke:23:55 @ Some women had come with Jesus from Galilee. They followed and saw the grave where his body was put.

bwe@Luke:23:56 @ Then they went back and got things ready to put on his body. These things were spices that smelled very nice, and sweet kinds of oil. On the Sabbath day they rested as the law said they should.

bwe@Luke:24:4 @ They were troubled about this. Then they saw two men standing near them. They were dressed in white clothes.

bwe@Luke:24:16 @ Jesus asked them, What is this that you are talking about as you walk along looking so sad?

bwe@Luke:24:20 @ But we were hoping that he was the one who would free the people of Israel. But that is not all. This is the third day since they did it.

bwe@Luke:24:21 @ Some of our women told us things that surprised us. Early this morning they were at the grave.

bwe@Luke:24:22 @ They did not find his body there. They came back and said that they saw angels. The angels told them that Jesus was living.

bwe@Luke:24:25 @ Christ had to have this trouble and go to the place where he will be great, did he not?

bwe@Luke:24:35 @ While they were telling them this, Jesus himself stood there with them. He said to them, Peace to you!

bwe@Luke:24:41 @ Then he said, I told you this while I was with you. I told you that things were written about me in the books of Moses, the Prophets, and the Psalms. And I told you that all of these things must come true.

bwe@Luke:24:44 @ Men will talk in his name to people in all countries. They will tell them to stop their wrong ways and ask to be forgiven. They will begin in Jerusalem.

bwe@Luke:24:47 @ Jesus led the disciples out as far as the town of Bethany. He put up his hands and blessed them.

bwe@John:1:11 @ He came into the world that was his own, but his own people did not receive him.

bwe@John:1:12 @ But there were people who did believe in his name. They did receive him. He gave all those who received him and believed him the right to become children of God.

bwe@John:1:13 @ They were born into Gods family by God. That is, they were not born into his family in the way a person is born into this world. It was not by any persons will.

bwe@John:1:14 @ The Word became man and he lived among us. We saw with our own eyes that he is great. He is great the way God the Father made his only Son great. We saw that he is full of loving kindness and truth.

bwe@John:1:17 @ Moses gave the law, but Jesus Christ gave this loving kindness and truth.

bwe@John:1:18 @ No one has ever seen God. But his only Son is very near to his Fathers heart. He has told us plainly about God.

bwe@John:1:23 @ John said, I am a voice calling in the desert, "Make the road straight for the Lord." This is what was said by Isaiah, the prophet of God long ago.

bwe@John:1:27 @ He is the one coming after me who is greater than I am. I am not even good enough to untie his shoe strings.

bwe@John:1:34 @ I saw the Spirit coming on him, and I have told you. This man is the Son of God.

bwe@John:1:35 @ The next day, John was standing with two of his followers.

bwe@John:1:41 @ The first thing Andrew did then was to find his brother Simon. He said, We have found the Messiah! (Messiah means the Christ, the messenger of God.)

bwe@John:2:2 @ Jesus and his disciples were also asked to the wedding.

bwe@John:2:5 @ His mother said to the servants, Do all that he tells you to do.

bwe@John:2:11 @ This was the first big work that Jesus did. It was in Cana in Galilee. He showed that he was great. And his disciples believed in him.

bwe@John:2:12 @ After this he went to the town called Capernaum. His mother, his brothers, and his disciples also went with him. They stayed there for a few days.

bwe@John:2:17 @ His disciples remembered that Gods word says, My love for your house is like a fire burning in me.

bwe@John:2:18 @ The leaders of the Jews said to Jesus, Who gave you the right to do this? What big work will prove it to us?

bwe@John:2:19 @ Jesus answered them, Break down this temple and in three days I will raise it up.

bwe@John:2:20 @ The Jewish leaders said, It took forty-six years to build this temple. Do you say you will raise it in three days?

bwe@John:2:21 @ But Jesus was talking about the temple which was his body.

bwe@John:2:22 @ After Jesus died and had been raised from death, the disciples remembered that he had said this to them. Then they believed what the holy writings say. They also believed what Jesus had said to them.

bwe@John:3:2 @ One night Nicodemus came to Jesus. He said, Master, we know you are a teacher sent by God. We know this because no person could do the big works you are doing if God did not help him.

bwe@John:3:4 @ Nicodemus said, How can a man be born when he is old? Can he go inside of his mother again and be born?

bwe@John:3:5 @ Jesus said, I tell you the truth. This new birth is by water and by the Spirit. No person can enter Gods kingdom if he has not been born that way.

bwe@John:3:10 @ Jesus answered, Are you a teacher of the people of Israel and you do not know this?

bwe@John:3:16 @ God loved the world so very, very much that he gave his only Son. Because he did that, everyone who believes in him will not lose his life, but will live for ever.

bwe@John:3:17 @ God did not send his Son into the world to judge the world. He sent him to save the world.

bwe@John:3:22 @ After this, Jesus and his disciples came into the country of Judea. Jesus stayed there with them and baptized people.

bwe@John:3:24 @ This was before John was put in prison.

bwe@John:3:35 @ The Father loves his Son and has put everything in his hand.

bwe@John:4:4 @ He came to a town in Samaria called Sychar. It was near the field that Jacob gave to his son Joseph.

bwe@John:4:7 @ His disciples had gone into the town to buy some food.

bwe@John:4:11 @ Are you greater than our father Jacob who gave us this well? He drank water from this well, also his children and cattle.

bwe@John:4:12 @ Jesus answered her, Anyone who drinks this water will be thirsty again.

bwe@John:4:14 @ The woman said, Sir, give me this water. Then I will never be thirsty again. I will not need to come here to draw water.

bwe@John:4:18 @ The woman said, Sir, this shows me you are a prophet of God.

bwe@John:4:19 @ Our fathers came to this mountain to worship God. But you people say Jerusalem is the place people must go to worship him.

bwe@John:4:20 @ Jesus said, Woman, believe what I say. The time is coming when you will not come to this mountain or to Jerusalem to worship my Father.

bwe@John:4:24 @ The woman said to Jesus, I know that Messiah is coming. His name is Christ. When he comes he will tell us everything.

bwe@John:4:26 @ When Jesus had said this, his disciples came back. They were surprised to hear him talking to a woman. But not one of them asked, What do you want? or, Why are you talking to her?

bwe@John:4:28 @ She said to the people, Come, I will show you a man who has told me everything I have done. Can this be the Christ?

bwe@John:4:33 @ Jesus said to them, My food is to obey the one who sent me and to finish his work.

bwe@John:4:36 @ This saying is true here: "One sows and another gathers."

bwe@John:4:40 @ Many more people believed in Jesus because of his own word.

bwe@John:4:41 @ They said to the woman, Now we believe, not because of what you told us, but because of what he himself has told us. We know it is true. This is the Saviour of the world.

bwe@John:4:42 @ Two days after this, Jesus left Samaria and went to Galilee.

bwe@John:4:43 @ Jesus himself said, No prophet is honoured by the people in his own country.

bwe@John:4:45 @ So Jesus came back to the town of Cana in Galilee. That was the place where he had changed water into wine. One of the kings officers was there. His son was sick in the town of Capernaum.

bwe@John:4:50 @ On the way, his servants met him. They said, Your son is living.

bwe@John:4:52 @ The father knew that was the time when Jesus said to him Your son will not die. So he and all his family believed in Jesus.

bwe@John:4:53 @ This was the second big work that Jesus did after he came back from Judea to Galilee.

bwe@John:5:2 @ In Jerusalem, near the Sheep Gate, there is a wide water hole. The Jews called this water hole Bethesda. It had five places with roofs for people to stand under.

bwe@John:5:9 @ The man was healed right away. He took up his bed and walked. This happened on the Sabbath day.

bwe@John:5:16 @ The Jewish leaders made trouble for Jesus because he did this on the Sabbath day.

bwe@John:5:18 @ This was why the leaders of the Jews tried much more to kill Jesus. He had broken the law of the Sabbath day. And also he called God his Father. In that way, he was making himself equal with God.

bwe@John:5:19 @ Jesus said to them, l tell you the truth. The Son cannot do anything alone. He sees what his Father is doing and he does the same.

bwe@John:5:20 @ My Father loves his Son. He shows him all that he himself is doing. He will show his Son bigger works than these so that you may be surprised.

bwe@John:5:21 @ My Father raises people who were dead, and gives them life. So his Son gives life to anyone he wants to.

bwe@John:5:22 @ My Father judges no one, but he has made his Son to be the judge of everything.

bwe@John:5:23 @ He did this so that all people would respect the Son, just as they respect his Father. My Father has sent his Son. Anyone who does not respect his Son does not respect the Father.

bwe@John:5:25 @ I tell you the truth. The time is coming. Yes, the time is here when the dead people will hear the voice of the Son of God. Those who hear his voice will live.

bwe@John:5:26 @ My Father has life in himself. And so he has made his Son to have life in himself.

bwe@John:5:27 @ He has given his Son power also to judge because he is the Son of Man.

bwe@John:5:28 @ Do not be surprised at what I say. The time is coming when all who are in the graves will hear his voice.

bwe@John:5:34 @ I do not need to listen to what a person says about me. But I tell you this so that you may be saved.

bwe@John:5:35 @ John was a light burning and shining. For a while you were happy to be in his light.

bwe@John:5:43 @ I have come in my Fathers name, but you will not receive me. If another person comes in his own name, then you will receive him.

bwe@John:6:1 @ Then Jesus crossed over the sea of Galilee. (Another name for this sea was Tiberias.)

bwe@John:6:3 @ Jesus went up on a hill and sat down with his disciples.

bwe@John:6:6 @ Jesus knew what he himself would do, but he said this to see what Philip would do.

bwe@John:6:12 @ When they had eaten enough, he said to his disciples, Gather up all the pieces that are left so that nothing will be lost.

bwe@John:6:14 @ When those men saw the big work that Jesus did, they said, Truly, this is the Prophet that is to come into the world.

bwe@John:6:15 @ The people wanted to take Jesus by force to make him a king. When he saw this, he left again and went on the hill by himself.

bwe@John:6:16 @ In the evening his disciples went down to the lake <FI>called the sea of Galilee<Fi>.

bwe@John:6:24 @ The next day the people saw that Jesus and his disciples were not there. Then they went to Capernaum in boats to look for Jesus.

bwe@John:6:34 @ They said to him, Lord, give us this bread always!

bwe@John:6:40 @ My Father wants everyone who sees his Son and believes in him to live for ever. I will raise him up on the last day.

bwe@John:6:42 @ They said, Is he not Josephs son, Jesus? We know his father and mother. How can he say, "I have come down from heaven"?

bwe@John:6:45 @ The prophets wrote, "God will teach all people." So then, every person who listens to his words and learns what he says, he will come to me.

bwe@John:6:50 @ Here is bread that comes down from heaven. The person who eats this bread will never die.

bwe@John:6:51 @ I am the bread that gives life. I came down from heaven. If anyone eats this bread, he will live for ever. I will give bread so that the world may live. I am that bread.

bwe@John:6:53 @ Jesus said, I tell you the truth. If you do not eat the Son of Man and do not drink his blood, you will not have life.

bwe@John:6:58 @ This bread which came down from heaven is not like the bread that your fathers ate. They ate bread but they died. Anyone who eats this bread from heaven will live for ever.

bwe@John:6:60 @ Many of his disciples heard it. They said, This is a hard teaching. Who can listen to it?

bwe@John:6:61 @ But Jesus knew that his disciples did not like what he said. He asked, Is this hard for you?

bwe@John:7:1 @ After this, Jesus travelled around in Galilee. He would not travel around in Judea because the leaders of the Jews wanted to kill him.

bwe@John:7:5 @ Even his brothers did not believe in Jesus.

bwe@John:7:9 @ He said this to them and stayed in Galilee.

bwe@John:7:10 @ After his brothers went to the feast, Jesus went also. He did not go with the other people, but he went by himself.

bwe@John:7:15 @ The Jews were very much surprised. How can this man know books? He never went to school.

bwe@John:7:18 @ The person who speaks from his own mind only wants to be great himself. But the person whom God has sent wants to show that God is great. That person is true. He is not a bad man.

bwe@John:7:25 @ Some people from Jerusalem said, Is not this the person they are trying to kill?

bwe@John:7:26 @ See, he does not fear to speak and yet they say nothing to him! Do the rulers really know that this man is the Christ?

bwe@John:7:27 @ But we know where this man comes from. When the Christ comes, no one will know where he comes from.

bwe@John:7:31 @ Many of the people believed in Jesus. They said, When Christ comes, will he do greater works than this man has done?

bwe@John:7:36 @ What does he mean by this: "You will look for me and will not find me. You will not be able to go to the place where I will be"?

bwe@John:7:38 @ If anyone believes in me, the holy writings say, "Rivers of water that give life will flow out of his heart."

bwe@John:7:39 @ This is what Jesus meant: those who believe in him would receive the Spirit. At that time no one had received the Holy Spirit because Jesus had not yet been lifted up to heaven

bwe@John:7:40 @ When some of the people heard this they said, Truly, this is the Prophet.

bwe@John:7:41 @ Other people said, This is the Christ. But some said, The Christ will not come from Galilee. Shall Christ come out of Galilee?

bwe@John:8:4 @ They said, Teacher, this woman has committed adultery. She was caught doing it.

bwe@John:8:6 @ They said this to see what Jesus would do, because they wanted to find something wrong with him. Jesus bent down and wrote on the ground with his finger.

bwe@John:8:20 @ When Jesus said these words he was teaching in the temple. He was in the place where the money is kept. No one caught him because it was not yet his time.

bwe@John:8:23 @ Jesus said to them, You are from below. I am from above. You belong to this world. I do not belong to this world.

bwe@John:8:27 @ The people did not understand that Jesus was talking to them about his Father.

bwe@John:8:30 @ Many people believed in Jesus while he was talking this way.

bwe@John:8:44 @ The bad spirit, the devil, is your real father. You gladly do the wrong things he wants you to do. From the beginning he killed people. He has nothing to do with what is true. His way is to tell lies. He himself is a liar and all lying comes from him.

bwe@John:8:55 @ But you do not know God. I know him. If I say, "I do not know him," I am a liar, just as you people are. But I know him and I obey his word.

bwe@John:9:1 @ On his way out of the temple Jesus saw a man who had been born blind.

bwe@John:9:2 @ His disciples asked Jesus, Master, was this man born blind because of the wrong things he did, or was it the wrong things his parents did?

bwe@John:9:3 @ Jesus answered, It was not that he or his parents did any wrong thing. But it was so that people would see what God will do in him.

bwe@John:9:4 @ There is one who has sent me. I must do his work while it is still daylight. Night is coming. Then it will be too dark to work.

bwe@John:9:6 @ When Jesus had said this, he spat on the ground. Then he put some of the wet dirt on the mans eyes.

bwe@John:9:7 @ And he said, Go. wash your eyes in that water hole called Siloam. (Siloam means Sent.) The man went and washed his eyes. After that, he was able to see.

bwe@John:9:8 @ His neighbours and other people had seen him when he was blind. They said, Is not this the same man who used to sit here and beg?

bwe@John:9:9 @ Some people said, Yes, this is the same man. Others said, He is like that man. But the man himself said, I am that man.

bwe@John:9:16 @ Then some of the Pharisees said, This man is not from God. He does not obey the Sabbath day law. The others said, But how can a bad man do such a big work? So the Pharisees did not agree together in what they thought about Jesus.

bwe@John:9:19 @ Tell us, they said. Is this your son who you say was born blind? How is it that now he can see?

bwe@John:9:20 @ The parents answered, We know that this is our son. And we know that he was born blind.

bwe@John:9:22 @ The parents said this because they were afraid of the Jewish leaders. They knew that the leaders of the Jews had already agreed that if anyone said Jesus is the Christ, they would be put out of the meeting place.

bwe@John:9:24 @ Then again they called the man who had been blind. They said to him, You must praise God for this. We know that the man who healed you is a bad man.

bwe@John:9:27 @ He answered them, I told you already. You did not listen. Why do you want me to tell you again? Do you also want to be his disciples?

bwe@John:9:28 @ This made them angry. They said, You are his disciple, but we are disciples of Moses.

bwe@John:9:29 @ We know that God talked to Moses. But this man, we do not know where he comes from.

bwe@John:9:30 @ The man who had been blind said, This surprises me! He healed me and yet you do not know where he comes from!

bwe@John:9:32 @ Before this, no one has ever healed a man who was born blind. Such a thing has not been heard of since the world was made.

bwe@John:9:33 @ If this man did not come from God, he could not do anything like this.

bwe@John:9:40 @ Some of the Pharisees were with Jesus and heard him say this. They asked him, You mean to say that we are blind also?

bwe@John:10:3 @ The guard will open the door for him. The sheep will listen to him. He calls his own sheep by their names and leads them out.

bwe@John:10:4 @ When all his own sheep are out of the house, he goes ahead of them. The sheep come behind him because they know his voice.

bwe@John:10:6 @ Jesus told this story to the Pharisees, but they did not understand what he was trying to tell them.

bwe@John:10:11 @ I am the good shepherd. I am the one who really cares for the sheep. The good shepherd is willing to die to save his sheep.

bwe@John:10:18 @ No one kills me. I die only because I choose to die. I have power to die and I have power to live again. This is what my Father has told me to do.

bwe@John:10:21 @ But others said, A person who has a bad spirit in him does not say the things this man says. Can a bad spirit make blind people see?

bwe@John:10:24 @ The Jews came around Jesus and said, How long will you keep us wondering about this matter? If you are really the Christ, then tell us plainly.

bwe@John:10:26 @ And yet you do not believe because you are not my sheep. I told you this before.

bwe@John:10:41 @ Many people came to him there. They said, John himself did not do any big work. But everything that John said about this man is true.

bwe@John:11:2 @ Mary was the same woman that put oil on the Lord and wiped his feet with her hair. It was her brother Lazarus who was sick.

bwe@John:11:4 @ Jesus heard the message. He said, The man is sick, but he will not die from it. But this will show people that God is great, and his Son also.

bwe@John:11:7 @ After that, he said to his disciples, Let us go back again to Judea.

bwe@John:11:11 @ After he said this, he said also, Our friend Lazarus is sleeping, but I am going to wake him up.

bwe@John:11:12 @ His disciples said, Lord, if he is sleeping then he will get well again.

bwe@John:11:26 @ Anyone who is living and who believes in me will never die. Do you believe this?

bwe@John:11:28 @ When she had said this, she went back to call her sister. She said quietly, Mary, the Master has come. He is calling you.

bwe@John:11:33 @ Jesus saw her crying. He saw the Jews who came with her crying also. Then his heart was troubled very much.

bwe@John:11:37 @ Then some of them said, This man made the blind see. Could he not have saved Lazarus from dying?

bwe@John:11:39 @ Jesus said, Take the stone away. Martha, the sister of the dead man, said, Lord, he will smell bad by this time. He has been dead four days already.

bwe@John:11:42 @ I know that you always hear me. But I have said this so that the people who are standing here might believe that you have sent me.

bwe@John:11:43 @ When he had said this, he shouted, Lazarus, come out!

bwe@John:11:44 @ Out came the dead man! The cloth that they had buried him in was tied around his hands and feet. Another small cloth was tied around his face. Jesus said to the people, Take off the cloths and free him!

bwe@John:11:47 @ So the chief priests and the Pharisees met together. They said, What are we going to do? This man is doing many big works.

bwe@John:11:54 @ That is why Jesus did not go among the Jews in the open. But he went to another part of the country, to a town called Ephraim. He stayed there with his disciples.

bwe@John:12:1 @ Six days before the Passover Feast Jesus came to Bethany where Lazarus lived. This was the Lazarus that Jesus had raised from death.

bwe@John:12:3 @ Mary had a jar of oil. It smelled very nice and cost much money. She put some of it on Jesus feet. Then she wiped his feet with her hair. The smell of oil went all through the house.

bwe@John:12:5 @ He said, This oil is worth a years wages! Why did we not sell it and give the money to poor people?

bwe@John:12:6 @ Judas did not say this because he cared for poor people. But he used to steal. He carried the disciples money bag and he used to take money out of the bag for himself.

bwe@John:12:7 @ Then Jesus said, Leave her alone. She has kept this oil for the time when they will bury me.

bwe@John:12:16 @ His disciples did not understand this at first. But when God had made Jesus great, then they remembered what the holy writings said about him. They remembered that people had done these things to him.

bwe@John:12:19 @ The Pharisees said to each other, See, you cannot stop this thing. People everywhere are going after him.

bwe@John:12:25 @ Anyone who tries to keep his life will lose it. Anyone who gives up his life in this world will live for ever in the next world.

bwe@John:12:27 @ Now my heart is very sad. Shall I say, "Father, save me from this time of trouble"? No, I have come to this time just so that I might go through it.

bwe@John:12:30 @ Jesus answered them, This voice did not come for my sake, but it came for your sake.

bwe@John:12:31 @ It is time now for the world to be judged. The ruler of this world will be put out.

bwe@John:12:33 @ He said this to show how he would die.

bwe@John:12:34 @ The people answered him, Our law book tells us that Christ will stay here for ever. Why do you say, "The Son of Man will be raised up from the earth"? Tell us who this Son of Man is.

bwe@John:12:36 @ Believe in the light while you have the light, so that you may be a people who have the light in you. When Jesus had said this, he left them. They did not know where he was.

bwe@John:12:41 @ Isaiah said this about the Christ when he saw how great he was.

bwe@John:12:49 @ I have not said this from my own mind, but my Father who sent me told me what to say. He told me what to tell you.

bwe@John:13:1 @ Before the Passover Feast had started, Jesus saw that the time had come for him to leave this world. The time had come for him to go back to his Father. He loved his own people who were in the world. And he loved them the same way right to the end.

bwe@John:13:2 @ He and his disciples were eating together. The devil had already put it into Judas heart to give Jesus over to people who hated him. (Judas was the son of Simon Iscariot.)

bwe@John:13:3 @ Jesus knew that his Father had put everything into his hands. He knew he had come from God. He knew he was going back to God.

bwe@John:13:4 @ Jesus stood up where he had been eating. He took off his outer clothing. And he took a towel and tied it around him.

bwe@John:13:10 @ Jesus said, A person who has bathed himself needs to wash his feet only. He is all clean. You are clean, but not all of you.

bwe@John:13:12 @ After Jesus had finished washing their feet, he took his gown and sat down again. Do you understand what I have done to you? he asked.

bwe@John:13:16 @ I tell you the truth. The servant is not better than his master. The one who is sent is not better than the one who sent him.

bwe@John:13:19 @ I am telling you this now before it happens. So when it happens you will believe who I am.

bwe@John:13:21 @ When Jesus had said this, he was troubled in his heart. He said, I tell you the truth. One of you will give me over to people who hate me.

bwe@John:13:23 @ The disciple Jesus loved was at his right side.

bwe@John:13:32 @ If he has made Gods name great, God also will make him great by his own power. He will do it right away.

bwe@John:13:35 @ This is how all people will know that you are my disciples.

bwe@John:14:9 @ Jesus said to him, Philip, you mean to say that I have been with you all this time and yet you do not know me? The person who has seen me has seen my Father also. Why do you say, "Show us your Father"?

bwe@John:14:26 @ But the Holy Spirit is the one who will help you. My Father will send him in my name. He will teach you everything that I have said to you. His Helper will remind you of all that I said.

bwe@John:14:29 @ I have told you this before it happens. Then when it does happen, you will believe.

bwe@John:14:30 @ After this I will not talk much with you. The ruler of this world is coming. He has no power over me.

bwe@John:15:13 @ The strongest love anyone can have is this. He will die to save his friends.

bwe@John:15:15 @ I do not call you servants anymore, for the servant does not know what his master is doing. But I have called you friends because you know everything that my Father has told me.

bwe@John:15:19 @ If you belonged to this world, the world would love you. But you do not belong to the world. I have chosen you out of the world. That is why the world hates you.

bwe@John:15:20 @ Remember what I told you. I said, "The servant is not better than his master." If the people in the world have troubled me, they will also trouble you. If they obey me, they will also obey you.

bwe@John:15:25 @ This has happened in order to make the words of their law book come true. It says, "They hated me for no reason."

bwe@John:16:8 @ When the Helper comes, he will prove this to the people of the world that they are wrong. They are wrong about what they call bad and about what they call good. He will show them how to be right with God. He will show them about Gods judgement.

bwe@John:16:11 @ He will show them how to judge right, because the ruler of this world himself will be judged.

bwe@John:16:13 @ When the truth-giving Spirit comes, he will show you everything that is true. He will not speak his own message, but he will tell you the things that he has been told to tell you. He will tell you what is going to happen.

bwe@John:16:19 @ Jesus knew that they wanted to ask him this question. So he said to them, Are you asking each other what I mean by saying, "Very soon you will not see me. Then in a little while after that you will see me"?

bwe@John:16:30 @ We know now that you know everything. No one needs to ask you questions. This makes us believe that God sent you.

bwe@John:16:32 @ Listen, the time is coming. No, the time is here when you will run away. Every man will go to his own home. You will leave me on my own. And yet I am not alone, because my Father is with me.

bwe@John:17:15 @ I do not ask you to take them out of the world. But I ask you to take care of them, so that the evil one of this world will not harm them.

bwe@John:17:20 @ I do not ask this for these people only; I ask it also for the people who will believe in me when they hear what these people say.

bwe@John:17:21 @ I do this so that the people will all be one. That is the same way with us. You, my Father, belong to me and I belong to you. I ask that they also may be joined to us. Then the world will believe that you have sent me.

bwe@John:18:1 @ When Jesus had finished saying this, he and his disciples went through the valley called Kidron. There was a garden with trees. He and his disciples went into the garden.

bwe@John:18:2 @ Jesus had gone to this place often with his disciples, so Judas knew where the place was. He was the one who gave Jesus over to the people who hated him.

bwe@John:18:9 @ So his words came true. He had said, I did not lose one of those you gave me.

bwe@John:18:10 @ Simon Peter had a long knife or sword. He took it out and hit the servant of the high priest and cut off his right ear. The servants name was Malchus.

bwe@John:18:14 @ This was the same Caiaphas that had talked to the leaders of the Jews. He had said, It is better for one man to die for the people.

bwe@John:18:17 @ The servant at the door said to Peter, Are you one of this mans disciples too? Peter said, No, I am not!

bwe@John:18:19 @ The high priest then asked Jesus about his disciples, and about his teaching.

bwe@John:18:22 @ When he had said this, one of the officers who stood there hit Jesus. He said, Is that the way you answer the high priest?

bwe@John:18:25 @ Simon Peter stayed by the fire and stood warming himself. So the people said to him, Are you not one of his disciples also? He said, No, I am not!

bwe@John:18:29 @ Pilate went out to the Jewish leaders and said, What complaint do you bring against this man?

bwe@John:18:32 @ So this is the way the words of Jesus came true. He had said how he was going to die.

bwe@John:18:36 @ Jesus answered him, I am not a king in this world. If I were, my people would fight so that I would not be given to the Jews. But I am not a king in this world.

bwe@John:18:38 @ Pilate said, What is truth? When he had said this, he went out to the Jews again. He told them, I find nothing wrong in this man.

bwe@John:18:40 @ Then they all shouted again, Not this man, but Barabbas! Barabbas was a man who had stolen things.

bwe@John:19:4 @ Then Pilate went out to the people again and said to them, See, I bring the man before you. This is to show you that I find nothing wrong in him.

bwe@John:19:5 @ Then Jesus came out. He had the crown of thorns on his head and had the red gown on him. Pilate said, Here is the man!

bwe@John:19:12 @ After that Pilate tried to let Jesus go free. But the Jews shouted, If you let this man free, you are not Caesars friend! Anyone who makes himself a king is fighting against Caesar!

bwe@John:19:13 @ When Pilate heard this, he brought Jesus out. Then Pilate sat on the bench where the judge sits. The place was called the Street of Stone. The Jews called it Gabbatha.

bwe@John:19:17 @ They took Jesus and led him away. Jesus went out carrying his own cross. They went to a place which the Jews called Golgotha. That means the place of the skull bone.

bwe@John:19:20 @ Many of the Jews read this sign. The place where Jesus was nailed to a cross was near the city. The sign was written in the Jewish, Greek, and Latin languages.

bwe@John:19:21 @ Then the chief priests among the Jews said to Pilate, Do not write, "The King of the Jews," but write, "This man said he is King of the Jews."

bwe@John:19:23 @ When the soldiers had nailed Jesus to the cross, they took his clothes. They divided them into four parts and gave each soldier one part. Then they took his coat. It was not sewn together but the cloth was all made in one piece from the top to the bottom.

bwe@John:19:24 @ So the soldiers said to one another, We will not tear this. But let us gamble for it. What the holy writings say came true. They say, They divided my clothes among them. They gambled for my coat. That is what the soldiers did.

bwe@John:19:25 @ Near the cross of Jesus stood his mother, his mothers sister, Mary the wife of Cleophas, and Mary Magdalene.

bwe@John:19:26 @ Jesus saw his mother and the disciple whom he loved standing near. He said to his mother, Woman, see your son!

bwe@John:19:27 @ And he said to the disciple, See your mother! From that time on, that disciple took her to live in his own home.

bwe@John:19:30 @ Jesus took the wine. Then he said, It is finished. And he bowed his head and died.

bwe@John:19:33 @ When they came to Jesus, they saw that he was dead already. So they did not break his legs.

bwe@John:19:36 @ What the holy writings say came true. They say, Not one of his bones shall be broken.

bwe@John:19:38 @ A man named Joseph, from the town of Arimathea, was a disciple of Jesus. But he did not say so because he was afraid of the leaders of the Jews. After all this had happened, he went to Pilate. He asked him to let him take Jesus body away. Pilate let him. So he came and took his body.

bwe@John:20:9 @ Until this time they did not understand the holy writings where it says, He must rise from death.

bwe@John:20:14 @ When she had said this, she turned around. She saw Jesus standing there, but she did not know that it was Jesus.

bwe@John:20:20 @ When he had said this, he showed them his hands and his side. The disciples were glad when they saw the Lord.

bwe@John:20:22 @ When he had said this, he breathed on them and said, Receive the Holy Spirit.

bwe@John:20:25 @ The other disciples told him about it. They said, We have seen the Lord! Thomas said, I will not believe unless I see the mark of the nails in his hands. I will not believe unless I put my finger on the mark and feel his side with my hand.

bwe@John:20:26 @ Then eight days later his disciples were in the house again. This time Thomas was with them. The doors were shut. Then Jesus came and stood there with them. He said to them, Peace to you!

bwe@John:20:30 @ Jesus did many other big works when he was with the disciples. They are not written in this book.

bwe@John:20:31 @ But these things are written so that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God. And when you believe in his name, then he will give you power to live.

bwe@John:21:1 @ The next time the disciples saw Jesus was at the Sea of Tiberias <FI>Galilee<Fi>. This is how Jesus showed himself to them.

bwe@John:21:7 @ That disciple whom Jesus loved said to Peter, It is the Lord! As soon as Simon Peter heard it was the Lord, he put on his coat and his belt. He had taken off some clothes to work. Then he jumped into the water.

bwe@John:21:14 @ This was the third time that Jesus showed himself to the disciples after he had risen from death.

bwe@John:21:19 @ Jesus said this to show how Peter would die and make Gods name great. When he had finished saying this, he said to him, Come and follow me!

bwe@John:21:21 @ When Peter saw him, he said to Jesus, Lord, what about this man?
