wmth@Matthew:1:2 @ Abraham was the father of Isaac; Isaac of Jacob; Jacob of Judah and his brothers.

wmth@Matthew:1:11 @ Josiah of Jeconiah and his brothers at the period of the Removal to Babylon.

wmth@Matthew:1:18 @ The circumstances of the birth of Jesus Christ were these. After his mother Mary was betrothed to Joseph, before they were united in marriage, she was found to be with child through the Holy Spirit.

wmth@Matthew:1:20 @ But while he was contemplating this step, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream and said, »Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to bring home your wife Mary, for she is with child through the Holy Spirit.

wmth@Matthew:1:21 @ She will give birth to a Son, and you are to call His name JESUS for He it is who will save His People from their sins.«

wmth@Matthew:1:22 @ All this took place in fulfilment of what the Lord had spoken through the Prophet,

wmth@Matthew:1:24 @ When Joseph awoke, he did as the angel of the Lord had commanded, and brought home his wife,

wmth@Matthew:2:2 @ inquiring, »Where is the newly born king of the Jews? For we have seen his Star in the east, and have come here to do him homage.«

wmth@Matthew:2:3 @ Reports of this soon reached the king, and greatly agitated not only him but all the people of Jerusalem.

wmth@Matthew:2:11 @ So they entered the house; and when they saw the babe with His mother Mary, they prostrated themselves and did Him homage, and opening their treasure-chests offered gifts to Him–gold, frankincense, and myrrh.

wmth@Matthew:2:13 @ When they were gone, and angel of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream and said, »Rise: take the babe and His mother and escape to Egypt, and remain there till I bring you word. For Herod is about to make search for the child in order to destroy Him.«

wmth@Matthew:2:14 @ So Joseph roused himself and took the babe and His mother by night and departed into Egypt.

wmth@Matthew:2:20 @ »Rise from sleep, and take the child and His mother, and go into the land of Israel, for those who were seeking the child's life are dead.«

wmth@Matthew:2:21 @ So he roused himself and took the child and His mother and came into the land of Israel.

wmth@Matthew:2:22 @ But hearing that Archelaus had succeeded his father Herod on the throne of Judaea, he was afraid to go there; and being instructed by God in a dream he withdrew into Galilee,

wmth@Matthew:3:1 @ About this time John the Baptist made his appearance, preaching in the Desert of Judaea.

wmth@Matthew:3:4 @ This man John wore a garment of camel's hair, and a loincloth of leather; and he lived upon locusts and wild honey.

wmth@Matthew:3:11 @ I indeed am baptizing you in water on a profession of repentance; but He who is coming after me is mightier than I: His sandals I am not worthy to carry for a moment; He will baptize you in the Holy Spirit and in fire.

wmth@Matthew:3:12 @ His winnowing-shovel is in His hand, and He will make a thorough clearance of His threshing-floor, gathering His wheat into the storehouse, but burning up the chaff in unquenchable fire.«

wmth@Matthew:3:15 @ »Let it be so on this occasion,« Jesus replied; »for so we ought to fulfil every religious duty.« Then he consented;

wmth@Matthew:3:17 @ while a voice came from Heaven, saying, »This is My Son, the dearly loved, in whom is My delight.«

wmth@Matthew:4:9 @ and said to Him, »All this I will give you, if you will kneel down and do me homage.«

wmth@Matthew:4:18 @ And walking along the shore of the Lake of Galilee He saw two brothers –Simon called Peter and his brother Andrew– throwing a drag-net into the Lake; for they were fishers.

wmth@Matthew:4:21 @ He saw two other brothers, James the son of Zabdi and his brother John, in the boat with their father Zabdi mending their nets; and He called them.

wmth@Matthew:4:24 @ Thus His fame spread through all Syria; and they brought all the sick to Him, the people who were suffering from various diseases and pains–demoniacs, epileptics, paralytics; and He cured them.

wmth@Matthew:5:1 @ Seeing the multitude of people, Jesus went up the Hill. There He seated Himself, and when His disciples came to Him,

wmth@Matthew:5:22 @ But I say to you that every one who becomes angry with his brother shall be answerable to the magistrate; that whoever says to his brother `Raca,' shall be answerable to the Sanhedrin; and that whoever says, `You fool!' shall be liable to the Gehenna of Fire.

wmth@Matthew:5:28 @ But I tell you that whoever looks at a woman and cherishes lustful thoughts has already in his heart become guilty with regard to her.

wmth@Matthew:5:32 @ But I tell you that every man who puts away his wife except on the ground of unfaithfulness causes her to commit adultery, and whoever marries her when so divorced commits adultery.

wmth@Matthew:5:35 @ nor by the earth, for it is the footstool under His feet; nor by Jerusalem, for it is the City of the Great King.

wmth@Matthew:5:37 @ But let your language be, `Yes, yes,' or `No, no.' Anything in excess of this comes from the Evil one.

wmth@Matthew:5:41 @ And whoever shall compel you to convey his goods one mile, go with him two.

wmth@Matthew:5:45 @ that so you may become true sons of your Father in Heaven; for He causes His sun to rise on the wicked as well as the good, and sends rain upon those who do right and those who do wrong.

wmth@Matthew:6:9 @ »In this manner therefore pray: `Our Father who art in Heaven, may Thy name be kept holy;«

wmth@Matthew:6:25 @ For this reason I charge you not to be over-anxious about your lives, inquiring what you are to eat or what you are to drink, nor yet about your bodies, inquiring what clothes you are to put on. Is not the life more precious than its food, and the body than its clothing?

wmth@Matthew:6:27 @ Which of you by being over-anxious can add a single foot to his height?

wmth@Matthew:6:29 @ and yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his magnificence could array himself like one of these.

wmth@Matthew:6:33 @ But make His Kingdom and righteousness your chief aim, and then these things shall all be given you in addition.

wmth@Matthew:7:9 @ What man is there among you, who if his son shall ask him for bread will offer him a stone?

wmth@Matthew:7:12 @ Everything, therefore, be it what it may, that you would have men do to you, do you also the same to them; for in this the Law and the Prophets are summed up.

wmth@Matthew:7:24 @ »Every one who hears these my teachings and acts upon them will be found to resemble a wise man who builds his house upon rock;«

wmth@Matthew:7:26 @ And every one who hears these my teachings and does not act upon them will be found to resemble a fool who builds his house upon sand.

wmth@Matthew:7:28 @ When Jesus had concluded this discourse, the crowds were filled with amazement at His teaching,

wmth@Matthew:8:2 @ And a leper came to Him, and throwing himself at His feet, said, »Sir, if only you are willing you are able to cleanse me.«

wmth@Matthew:8:3 @ So Jesus put out His hand and touched him, and said, »I am willing: be cleansed.« Instantly he was cleansed from his leprosy;

wmth@Matthew:8:5 @ After His entry into Capernaum a Captain came to Him, and entreated Him.

wmth@Matthew:8:9 @ For I myself am also under authority, and have soldiers under me. To one I say `Go,' and he goes, to another `Come,' and he comes, and to my slave `Do this or that,' and he does it.«

wmth@Matthew:8:10 @ Jesus listened to this reply, and was astonished, and said to the people following Him, »I solemnly tell you that in no Israelite have I found faith as great as this.

wmth@Matthew:8:14 @ After this Jesus went to the house of Peter, whose mother-in-law he found ill in bed with fever.

wmth@Matthew:8:17 @ in order that this prediction of the Prophet Isaiah might be fulfilled,

wmth@Matthew:8:20 @ »Foxes have holes,« replied Jesus, »and birds have nests; but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay His head.«

wmth@Matthew:8:23 @ Then He went on board a fishing-boat, and His disciples followed Him.

wmth@Matthew:8:27 @ and the men, filled with amazement, exclaimed, »What kind of man is this? for the very winds and waves obey him!«

wmth@Matthew:8:28 @ On His arrival at the other side, in the country of the Gadarenes, there met Him two men possessed by demons, coming from among the tombs: they were so dangerously fierce that no one was able to pass that way.

wmth@Matthew:9:1 @ Accordingly He went on board, and crossing over came to His own town.

wmth@Matthew:9:10 @ And while He was reclining at table, a large number of tax-gathers and notorious sinners were of the party with Jesus and His disciples.

wmth@Matthew:9:11 @ The Pharisees noticed this, and they inquired of His disciples, »Why does your Teacher eat with the tax-gatherers and notorious sinners?«

wmth@Matthew:9:13 @ But go and learn what this means, for I did not come to appeal to the righteous, but to sinners.«

wmth@Matthew:9:19 @ And Jesus rose and followed him, as did also His disciples.

wmth@Matthew:9:20 @ But a woman who for twelve years had been afflicted with haemorrhage came behind Him and touched the tassel of His cloak;

wmth@Matthew:9:21 @ for she said to herself, »If I but touch His cloak, I shall be cured.«

wmth@Matthew:9:25 @ When however the place was cleared of the crowd, Jesus went in, and on His taking the little girl by the hand, she rose up.

wmth@Matthew:9:26 @ And the report of this spread throughout all that district.

wmth@Matthew:9:28 @ And when He had gone indoors, they came to Him. »Do you believe that I can do this?« He asked them. »Yes, Sir,« they replied.

wmth@Matthew:9:31 @ But they went out and published His fame in all that district.

wmth@Matthew:9:32 @ And as they were leaving His presence a dumb demoniac was brought to Him.

wmth@Matthew:9:35 @ And Jesus continued His circuits through all the towns and the villages, teaching in their synagogues and proclaiming the Good News of the Kingdom, and curing every kind of disease and infirmity.

wmth@Matthew:9:37 @ Then He said to His disciples, »The harvest is abundant, but the reapers are few;

wmth@Matthew:9:38 @ therefore entreat the Owner of the Harvest to send out reapers into His fields.«

wmth@Matthew:10:1 @ Then He called to Him His twelve disciples and gave them authority over foul spirits, to drive them out; and to cure every kind of disease and infirmity.

wmth@Matthew:10:2 @ Now the names of the twelve Apostles were these: first, Simon called Peter, and his brother Andrew; James the son of Zabdi, and his brother John;

wmth@Matthew:10:10 @ no bag for your journey, nor change of linen, nor shoes, nor stick; for the labourer deserves his food.

wmth@Matthew:10:11 @ »Whatever town or village you enter, inquire for some good man; and make his house your home till you leave the place.«

wmth@Matthew:10:24 @ »The learner is never superior to his teacher, and the servant is never superior to his master.«

wmth@Matthew:10:25 @ Enough for the learner to be on a level with his teacher, and for the servant to be on a level with his master. If they have called the master of the house Baal-zebul, how much more will they slander his servants?

wmth@Matthew:10:27 @ What I tell you in the dark, speak in the light; and what is whispered into your ear, proclaim upon the roofs of the houses.

wmth@Matthew:10:35 @ For I came to set a man against his father,

wmth@Matthew:10:38 @ and any one who does not take up his cross and follow where I lead is not worthy of me.

wmth@Matthew:10:42 @ And whoever gives one of these little ones even a cup of cold water to drink because he is a disciple, I solemnly tell you that he will not lose his reward.«

wmth@Matthew:11:1 @ When Jesus had concluded His instructions to His twelve disciples, He left in order to teach and to proclaim His Message in the neighbouring towns.

wmth@Matthew:11:2 @ Now John had heard in prison about the Christ's doings, and he sent some of his disciples to inquire:

wmth@Matthew:11:10 @ This is he of whom it is written, «

wmth@Matthew:11:19 @ The Son of Man came eating and drinking, and they exclaim, `See this man! –given to gluttony and tippling, and a friend of tax-gatherers and notorious sinners!' And yet Wisdom is vindicated by her actions.«

wmth@Matthew:11:20 @ Then began He to upbraid the towns where most of His mighty works had been done–because they had not repented.

wmth@Matthew:12:1 @ About that time Jesus passed on the Sabbath through the wheatfields; and His disciples became hungry, and began to gather ears of wheat and eat them.

wmth@Matthew:12:3 @ »Have you never read,« He replied, »what David did when he and his men were hungry?

wmth@Matthew:12:4 @ how he entered the House of God and ate the Presented Loaves, which it was not lawful for him or his men to eat, nor for any except the priests?

wmth@Matthew:12:7 @ And if you knew what this means,, you would not have condemned those who are without guilt.

wmth@Matthew:12:15 @ Aware of this, Jesus departed elsewhere; and a great number of people followed Him, all of whom He cured.

wmth@Matthew:12:16 @ But He gave them strict injunctions not to blaze abroad His doings,

wmth@Matthew:12:23 @ And the crowds of people were all filled with amazement and said, »Can this be the Son of David?«

wmth@Matthew:12:24 @ The Pharisees heard it and said, »This man only expels demons by the power of Baal-zebul, the Prince of demons.«

wmth@Matthew:12:26 @ And if Satan is expelling Satan, he has begun to make war on himself: how therefore shall his kingdom last?

wmth@Matthew:12:29 @ Again, how can any one enter the house of a strong man and carry off his goods, unless first of all he masters and secures the strong man: then he will ransack his house.

wmth@Matthew:12:31 @ This is why I tell you that men may find forgiveness for every other sin and impious word, but that for impious speaking against the Holy Spirit they shall find no forgiveness.

wmth@Matthew:12:32 @ And whoever shall speak against the Son of Man may obtain forgiveness; but whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit, neither in this nor in the coming age shall he obtain forgiveness.«

wmth@Matthew:12:35 @ A good man from his good store produces good things, and a bad man from his bad store produces bad things.

wmth@Matthew:12:37 @ For each of you by his words shall be justified, or by his words shall be condemned.«

wmth@Matthew:12:46 @ While He was still addressing the people His mother and His brothers were standing on the edge of the crowd desiring to speak to Him.

wmth@Matthew:12:49 @ And pointing to His disciples He added, »See here are my mother and my brothers.

wmth@Matthew:13:10 @ (And His disciples came and asked Him, »Why do you speak to them in figurative language?«

wmth@Matthew:13:13 @ I speak to them in figurative language for this reason, that while looking they do not see, and while hearing they neither hear nor understand.

wmth@Matthew:13:19 @ When a man hears the Message concerning the Kingdom and does not understand it, the Evil one comes and catches away what has been sown in his heart. This is he who has received the seed by the road-side.

wmth@Matthew:13:24 @ Another parable He put before them. »The Kingdom of the Heavens,« He said, »may be compared to a man who has sown good seed in his field,

wmth@Matthew:13:25 @ but during the night his enemy comes, and over the first seed he sows darnel among the wheat, and goes away.

wmth@Matthew:13:28 @ `Some enemy has done this,' he said. »`Shall we go, and collect it?' the men inquire.

wmth@Matthew:13:31 @ Another parable He put before them. »The Kingdom of the Heavens,« He said, »is like a mustard-seed, which a man takes and sows in his ground.

wmth@Matthew:13:34 @ All this Jesus spoke to the people in figurative language, and except in figurative language He spoke nothing to them,

wmth@Matthew:13:36 @ When He had dismissed the people and had returned to the house, His disciples came to Him with the request, »Explain to us the parable of the darnel sown in the field.«

wmth@Matthew:13:41 @ The Son of Man will commission His angels, and they will gather out of His Kingdom all causes of sin and all who violate His laws;

wmth@Matthew:13:44 @ »The Kingdom of the Heavens is like treasure buried in the open country, which a man finds, but buries again, and, in his joy about it, goes and sells all he has and buys that piece of ground.«

wmth@Matthew:13:51 @ »Have you understood all this?« He asked. »Yes,« they said.

wmth@Matthew:13:52 @ »Therefore,« He said, »remember that every Scribe well trained for the Kingdom of the Heavens is like a householder who brings out of his storehouse new things and old.«

wmth@Matthew:13:53 @ Jesus concluded this series of parables and then departed.

wmth@Matthew:13:54 @ And He came into His own country and proceeded to teach in their synagogue, so that they were filled with astonishment and exclaimed, »Where did he obtain such wisdom, and these wondrous powers?

wmth@Matthew:13:55 @ Is not this the carpenter's son? Is not his mother called Mary? And are not his brothers, James, Joseph, Simon and Judah?

wmth@Matthew:13:56 @ And his sisters–are they not all living here among us? Where then did he get all this?«

wmth@Matthew:13:57 @ So they turned angrily away from Him. But Jesus said to them, »There is no prophet left without honour except in his own country and among his own family.«

wmth@Matthew:14:2 @ and he said to his courtiers, »This is John the Baptist: he has come back to life–and that is why these miraculous Powers are working in him.«

wmth@Matthew:14:3 @ For Herod had arrested John, and had put him in chains, and imprisoned him, for the sake of Herodias his brother Philip's wife,

wmth@Matthew:14:9 @ The king was deeply vexed, yet because of his repeated oath and of the guests at his table he ordered it to be given her,

wmth@Matthew:14:15 @ But when evening was come, the disciples came to Him and said, »This is an uninhabited place, and the best of the day is now gone; send the people away to go into the villages and buy something to eat.«

wmth@Matthew:14:23 @ When He had done this, He climbed the hill to pray in solitude. Night came on, and he was there alone.

wmth@Matthew:14:31 @ Instantly Jesus stretched out His hand and caught hold of him, saying to him, »O little faith, why did you doubt?«

wmth@Matthew:14:36 @ and they entreated Him that they might but touch the tassel of His outer garment; and all who did so were restored to perfect health.

wmth@Matthew:15:5 @ but you –this is what you say: `If a man says to his father or mother, That is consecrated, whatever it is, which otherwise you should have received from me–

wmth@Matthew:15:6 @ he shall be absolved from honouring his father'; and so you have abrogated God's Word for the sake of your tradition.

wmth@Matthew:15:11 @ It is not what goes into a man's mouth that defiles him; but it is what comes out of his mouth– defiles a man.«

wmth@Matthew:15:12 @ Then His disciples came and said to Him, »Do you know that the Pharisees were greatly shocked when they heard those words?«

wmth@Matthew:15:15 @ »Explain to us this figurative language,« said Peter.

wmth@Matthew:15:25 @ Then she came and threw herself at His feet and entreated Him. »O Sir, help me,« she said.

wmth@Matthew:15:30 @ Soon great crowds came to Him, bringing with them those who were crippled in feet or hands, blind or dumb, and many besides, and they hastened to lay them at His feet. And He cured them,

wmth@Matthew:15:32 @ But Jesus called His disciples to Him and said, »My heart yearns over this mass of people, for it is now the third day that they have been with me and they have nothing to eat. I am unwilling to send them away hungry, lest they should faint on the road.«

wmth@Matthew:15:33 @ »Where can we,« asked the disciples, »get bread enough in this remote place to satisfy so vast a multitude?«

wmth@Matthew:16:8 @ Jesus perceived this and said, »Why are you reasoning among yourselves, you men of little faith, because you have no bread?

wmth@Matthew:16:13 @ When He arrived in the neighbourhood of Caesarea Philippi, Jesus questioned His disciples. »Who do people say that the Son of Man is?« He asked.

wmth@Matthew:16:17 @ »Blessed are you, Simon Bar-jonah,« said Jesus; »for mere human nature has not revealed this to you, but my Father in Heaven.

wmth@Matthew:16:18 @ And I declare to you that you are Peter, and that upon this Rock I will build my Church, and the might of Hades shall not triumph over it.

wmth@Matthew:16:20 @ Then He urged His disciples to tell no one that He was the Christ.

wmth@Matthew:16:21 @ From this time Jesus began to explain to His disciples that He must go to Jerusalem, and suffer much cruelty from the Elders and the High Priests and the Scribes, and be put to death, and on the third day be raised to life again.

wmth@Matthew:16:22 @ Then Peter took Him aside and began taking Him to task. »Master,« he said, »God forbid; this will not be your lot.«

wmth@Matthew:16:24 @ Then Jesus said to His disciples, »If any one desires to follow me, let him renounce self and take up his cross, and so be my follower.

wmth@Matthew:16:25 @ For whoever desires to save his life shall lose it, and whoever loses his life for my sake shall find it.

wmth@Matthew:16:26 @ Why, what benefit will it be to a man if he gains the whole world but forfeits his life? Or what shall a man give to buy back his life?

wmth@Matthew:16:27 @ For the Son of Man is soon to come in the glory of the Father with His angels, and then will He requite every man according to his actions.

wmth@Matthew:16:28 @ I solemnly tell you that some of those who are standing here will certainly not taste death till they have seen the Son of Man coming in His Kingdom.«

wmth@Matthew:17:2 @ There in their presence His form underwent a change; His face shone like the sun, and His raiment became as white as the light.

wmth@Matthew:17:5 @ He was still speaking when a luminous cloud spread over them; and a voice was heard from within the cloud, which said, »This is My Son dearly beloved, in whom is My delight. Listen to Him.«

wmth@Matthew:17:6 @ On hearing this voice, the disciples fell on their faces and were filled with terror.

wmth@Matthew:17:14 @ When they had returned to the people, there came to Him a man who fell on his knees before Him and besought Him.

wmth@Matthew:17:20 @ »Because your faith is so small,« He replied; »for I solemnly declare to you that if you have faith like a mustard-seed, you shall say to this mountain, `Remove from this place to that,' and it will remove; and nothing shall be impossible to you.

wmth@Matthew:17:21 @ But an evil spirit of this kind is only driven out by prayer and fasting.«

wmth@Matthew:17:25 @ »Yes,« he replied, and then went into the house. But before he spoke a word Jesus said, »What think you, Simon? From whom do this world's kings receive customs or capitation tax? from their own children, or from others?«

wmth@Matthew:18:4 @ Whoever therefore shall humble himself as this young child, he it is who is superior to others in the Kingdom of the Heavens.

wmth@Matthew:18:5 @ And whoever for my sake receives one young child such as this, receives me.

wmth@Matthew:18:6 @ But whoever shall occasion the fall of one of these little ones who believe in me, it would be better for him to have a millstone hung round his neck and to be drowned in the depths of the sea.

wmth@Matthew:18:15 @ »If your brother acts wrongly towards you, go and point out his fault to him when only you and he are there. If he listens to you, you have gained your brother.«

wmth@Matthew:18:21 @ At this point Peter came to Him with the question, »Master, how often shall my brother act wrongly towards me and I forgive him? seven times?«

wmth@Matthew:18:23 @ »For this reason the Kingdom of the Heavens may be compared to a king who determined to have a settlement of accounts with his servants.«

wmth@Matthew:18:25 @ and was unable to pay. So his master ordered that he and his wife and children and everything that he had should be sold, and payment be made.

wmth@Matthew:18:26 @ The servant therefore falling down, prostrated himself at his feet and entreated him. »`Only give me time,' he said, `and I will pay you the whole.'

wmth@Matthew:18:27 @ »Whereupon his master, touched with compassion, set him free and forgave him the debt.

wmth@Matthew:18:28 @ But no sooner had that servant gone out, than he met with one of his fellow servants who owed him 100 shillings; and seizing him by the throat and nearly strangling him he exclaimed, `Pay me all you owe.'«

wmth@Matthew:18:29 @ His fellow servant therefore fell at his feet and entreated him, »`Only give me time,' he said, `and I will pay you.'

wmth@Matthew:18:31 @ His fellow servants, therefore, seeing what had happened, were exceedingly angry; and they came and told their master without reserve all that had happened.

wmth@Matthew:18:32 @ At once his master called him and said, »`Wicked servant, I forgave you all that debt, because you entreated me:

wmth@Matthew:18:34 @ »So his master, greatly incensed, handed him over to the jailers until he should pay all he owed him.«

wmth@Matthew:19:3 @ Then came some of the Pharisees to Him to put Him to the proof by the question, »Has a man a right to divorce his wife whenever he chooses?«

wmth@Matthew:19:9 @ And I tell you that whoever divorces his wife for any reason except her unfaithfulness, and marries another woman, commits adultery.«

wmth@Matthew:19:10 @ »If this is the case with a man in relation to his wife,« said the disciples to Him, »it is better not to marry.«

wmth@Matthew:19:11 @ »It is not every man,« He replied, »who can receive this teaching, but only those on whom the grace has been bestowed.

wmth@Matthew:19:12 @ There are men who from their birth have been disabled from marriage, others who have been so disabled by men, and others who have disabled themselves for the sake of the Kingdom of the Heavens. He who is able to receive this, let him receive it.«

wmth@Matthew:19:13 @ Then young children were brought to Him for Him to put His hands on them and pray; but the disciples interfered.

wmth@Matthew:19:15 @ So He laid His hands upon them and went away.

wmth@Matthew:19:23 @ So Jesus said to His disciples, »I solemnly tell you that it is with difficulty that a rich man will enter the Kingdom of the Heavens.

wmth@Matthew:19:26 @ Jesus looked at them and said, »With men this is impossible, but with God everything is possible.«

wmth@Matthew:19:28 @ »I solemnly tell you,« replied Jesus, »that in the New Creation, when the Son of Man has taken His seat on His glorious throne, all of you who have followed me shall also sit on twelve thrones and judge the twelve tribes of Israel.

wmth@Matthew:19:29 @ And whoever has forsaken houses, or brothers or sisters, or father or mother, or children or lands, for my sake, shall receive many times as much and shall have as his inheritance the Life of the Ages.

wmth@Matthew:20:1 @ »For the Kingdom of the Heavens is like an employer who went out early in the morning to hire men to work in his vineyard,«

wmth@Matthew:20:2 @ and having made an agreement with them for a shilling a day, sent them into his vineyard.

wmth@Matthew:20:8 @ When evening came, the master said to his steward, »`Call the men and pay them their wages. Begin with the last set and finish with the first.'

wmth@Matthew:20:14 @ Take your money and go. I choose to give this last comer just as much as I give you.

wmth@Matthew:20:24 @ The other ten heard of this, and their indignation was aroused against the two brothers.

wmth@Matthew:20:28 @ just as the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve, and to give His life as the redemption-price for many.«

wmth@Matthew:21:4 @ This took place in order that the Prophet's prediction might be fulfilled:

wmth@Matthew:21:10 @ When He thus entered Jerusalem, the whole city was thrown into commotion, every one inquiring, »Who is this?«

wmth@Matthew:21:11 @ »This is Jesus, the Prophet, from Nazareth in Galilee,« replied the crowds.

wmth@Matthew:21:18 @ Early in the morning as He was on His way to return to the city He was hungry,

wmth@Matthew:21:21 @ »I solemnly tell you,« said Jesus, »that if you have an unwavering faith, you shall not only perform such a miracle as this of the fig-tree, but that even if you say to this mountain, `Be thou lifted up and hurled into the sea,' it shall be done;

wmth@Matthew:21:23 @ He entered the Temple; and while He was teaching, the High Priests and the Elders of the people came to Him and asked Him, »By what authority are you doing these things? and who gave you this authority?«

wmth@Matthew:21:30 @ He came to the second and spoke in the same manner. His answer was, »`I will go, Sir.' «But he did not go.

wmth@Matthew:21:31 @ Which of the two did as his father desired?« »The first,« they said. `I solemnly tell you,' replied Jesus, «that the tax-gatherers and the notorious sinners are entering the Kingdom of God in front of you.

wmth@Matthew:21:32 @ For John came to you observing all sorts of ritual, and you put no faith in him: the tax-gatherers and the notorious sinners did put faith in him, and you, though you saw this example set you, were not even afterwards sorry so as to believe him.

wmth@Matthew:28:15 @ So they took the money and did as they were instructed; and this story was noised about among the Jews, and is current to this day.

wmth@Mark:1:6 @ As for John, his garment was of camel's hair, and he wore a loincloth of leather; and his food was locusts and wild honey.

wmth@Mark:1:7 @ His announcement was, »There is One coming after me mightier than I–One whose sandal-strap I am unworthy to stoop down and unfasten.

wmth@Mark:1:19 @ Going on a little further He saw James the son of Zabdi and his brother John: they also were in the boat mending the nets, and He immediately called them.

wmth@Mark:1:22 @ The people listened with amazement to His teaching –for there was authority about it: it was very different from that of the Scribes–

wmth@Mark:1:27 @ And all were amazed and awe-struck, so they began to ask one another, »What does this mean? Here is a new sort of teaching–and a tone of authority! And even to foul spirits he issues orders and they obey him!«

wmth@Mark:1:28 @ And His fame spread at once everywhere in all that part of Galilee.

wmth@Mark:1:40 @ One day there came a leper to Jesus entreating Him, and pleading on his knees. »If you are willing,« he said, »you are able to cleanse me.«

wmth@Mark:1:41 @ Moved with pity Jesus reached out His hand and touched him. »I am willing,« He said; »be cleansed.«

wmth@Mark:2:2 @ and such numbers of people came together that there was no longer room for them even round the door. He was speaking His Message to them,

wmth@Mark:2:4 @ Finding themselves unable, however, to bring him to Jesus because of the crowd, they untiled the roof just over His head, and after clearing an opening they lowered the mat on which the paralytic was lying.

wmth@Mark:2:7 @ »Why does this man use such words?« they said; »he is blaspheming. Who can pardon sins but One–that is, God?«

wmth@Mark:2:8 @ At once perceiving by His spirit that they were reasoning within themselves, Jesus asked them, »Why do you thus argue in your minds?

wmth@Mark:2:9 @ Which is easier?–to say to this paralytic, `Your sins are pardoned,' or to say, `Rise, take up your mat, and walk?'

wmth@Mark:2:12 @ The man rose, and immediately under the eyes of all took up his mat and went out, so that they were all filled with astonishment, gave the glory to God, and said, »We never saw anything like this.«

wmth@Mark:2:15 @ When He was sitting at table in Levi's house, a large number of tax-gatherers and notorious sinners were at table with Jesus and His disciples; for there were many such who habitually followed Him.

wmth@Mark:2:16 @ But when the Scribes of the Pharisee sect saw Him eating with the sinners and the tax-gatherers, they said to His disciples, »He is eating and drinking with the tax-gatherers and sinners!«

wmth@Mark:2:23 @ One Sabbath He was walking through the wheatfields when His disciples began to pluck the ears of wheat as they went.

wmth@Mark:2:25 @ »Have you never read,« Jesus replied, »what David did when the necessity arose and he and his men were hungry:

wmth@Mark:2:26 @ how he entered the house of God in the High-priesthood of Abiathar, and ate the Presented Loaves –which none but the priests are allowed to eat– and gave some to his men also?«

wmth@Mark:3:7 @ Accordingly Jesus withdrew with His disciples to the Lake, and a vast crowd of people from Galilee followed Him;

wmth@Mark:3:9 @ So He gave directions to His disciples to keep a small boat in constant attendance on Him because of the throng–to prevent their crushing Him.

wmth@Mark:3:11 @ And the foul spirits, whenever they saw Him, threw themselves down at His feet, screaming out:»You are the Son of God.«

wmth@Mark:3:14 @ He appointed twelve of them, that they might be with Him, and that He might also send them to proclaim His Message,

wmth@Mark:3:21 @ Hearing of this, His relatives came to seize Him by force, for they said, »He is out of his mind.«

wmth@Mark:3:26 @ So if Satan has risen in arms and has made war upon himself, stand he cannot, but meets his end.

wmth@Mark:3:27 @ Nay, no one can go into a strong man's house and carry off his property, unless he first binds the strong man, and then he will plunder his house.

wmth@Mark:3:30 @ This was because they said, »He is possessed by a foul spirit.«

wmth@Mark:3:31 @ By this time His mother and His brothers arrive, and standing outside they send a message to Him to call Him.

wmth@Mark:3:34 @ And, fixing His eyes on the people who were sitting round Him in a circle, He said,

wmth@Mark:4:2 @ Then He proceeded to teach them many lessons in figurative language; and in His teaching He said,

wmth@Mark:4:10 @ When He was alone, the Twelve and the others who were about Him requested Him to explain His figurative language.

wmth@Mark:4:11 @ »To you,« He replied, »has been entrusted the secret truth concerning the Kingdom of God; but to those others outside your number all this is spoken in figurative language;

wmth@Mark:4:13 @ »Do you all miss the meaning of this parable?« He added; »how then will you understand the rest of my parables?«

wmth@Mark:4:26 @ Another saying of His was this: »The Kingdom of God is as if a man scattered seed over the ground:

wmth@Mark:4:30 @ Another saying of His was this: »How are we to picture the Kingdom of God? or by what figure of speech shall we represent it?

wmth@Mark:4:34 @ But except in figurative language He spoke nothing to them; while to His own disciples He expounded everything, in private.

wmth@Mark:4:38 @ But He Himself was in the stern asleep, with His head on the cushion: so they woke Him. »Rabbi,« they cried, »is it nothing to you that we are drowning?«

wmth@Mark:4:41 @ Then they were filled with terror, and began to say to one another, »Who is this, then? For even wind and sea obey Him.«

wmth@Mark:5:2 @ At once, on His landing, there came from the tombs to meet Him a man possessed by a foul spirit.

wmth@Mark:5:3 @ This man lived among the tombs, nor could any one now secure him even with a chain;

wmth@Mark:5:6 @ And when he saw Jesus in the distance, he ran and threw himself at His feet,

wmth@Mark:5:22 @ when there came one of the Wardens of the Synagogue –he was called Jair– who, on beholding Him, threw himself at His feet,

wmth@Mark:5:27 @ heard of Jesus. And she came in the crowd behind Him and touched His cloak;

wmth@Mark:5:28 @ for she said, »If I but touch His clothes, I shall be cured.«

wmth@Mark:5:31 @ »You see the multitude pressing you on all sides,« His disciples exclaimed, »and yet you ask, `Who touched me?'«

wmth@Mark:5:32 @ But He continued looking about to see the person who had done this,

wmth@Mark:5:33 @ until the woman, frightened and trembling, knowing what had happened to her, came and threw herself at His feet, and told Him all the truth.

wmth@Mark:5:39 @ He goes in. »Why all this outcry and loud weeping?« He asks; »the child is asleep, not dead.«

wmth@Mark:5:40 @ To this their reply is a scornful laugh. He, however, puts them all out, takes the child's father and mother and those He has brought with Him, and enters the room where the child lies.

wmth@Mark:6:1 @ Leaving that place He came into His own country, accompanied by His disciples.

wmth@Mark:6:2 @ On the Sabbath He proceeded to teach in the synagogue; and many, as they heard Him, were astonished. »Where did he acquire all this?« they asked. »What is this wisdom that has been given to him? And what are these marvellous miracles which his hands perform?

wmth@Mark:6:3 @ Is not this the carpenter, Mary's son, the brother of James and Joses, Jude and Simon? And do not his sisters live here among us?« So they turned angrily away.

wmth@Mark:6:4 @ But Jesus said to them, »There is no Prophet without honour except in his own country, and among his own relatives, and in his own home.«

wmth@Mark:6:5 @ And He could not do any miracle there, except that He laid His hands on a few who were out of health and cured them; and

wmth@Mark:6:14 @ King Herod heard of all this (for the name of Jesus had become widely known), and he kept saying, »John the Baptizer has come back to life, and that is why these miraculous Powers are working in him.«

wmth@Mark:6:17 @ For Herod himself had sent and had had John arrested and had kept him in prison in chains, for the sake of Herodias, his brother Philip's wife; because he had married her.

wmth@Mark:6:19 @ Therefore Herodias hated him and wished to take his life, but could not;

wmth@Mark:6:21 @ At length Herodias found her opportunity. Herod on his birthday gave a banquet to the nobles of his court and to the tribunes and the principal people in Galilee,

wmth@Mark:6:22 @ at which Herodias's own daughter came in and danced, and so charmed Herod and his guests that he said to her, »Ask me for anything you please, and I will give it to you.«

wmth@Mark:6:26 @ Then the King, though intensely sorry, yet for the sake of his oaths, and of his guests, would not break faith with her.

wmth@Mark:6:27 @ He at once sent a soldier of his guard with orders to bring John's head. So he went and beheaded him in the prison,

wmth@Mark:6:28 @ and brought his head on a dish and gave it to the young girl, who gave it to her mother.

wmth@Mark:6:29 @ When John's disciples heard of it, they came and took away his body and laid it in a tomb.

wmth@Mark:6:34 @ So when Jesus landed, He saw a vast multitude; and His heart was moved with pity for them, because they were like sheep which have no shepherd, and He proceeded to teach them many things.

wmth@Mark:6:35 @ By this time it was late; so His disciples came to Him, and said, »This is a lonely place, and the hour is now late:

wmth@Mark:6:41 @ Then He took the five loaves and the two fish, and lifting His eyes to Heaven He blessed the food. Then He broke the loaves into portions which He went on handing to the disciples to distribute; giving pieces also of the two fish to them all.

wmth@Mark:6:45 @ Immediately afterwards He made His disciples go on board the boat and cross over to Bethsaida, leaving Him behind to dismiss the crowd.

wmth@Mark:6:56 @ And enter wherever He might –village or town or hamlet– they laid their sick in the open places, and entreated Him to let them touch were it but the tassel of His robe; and all, whoever touched Him, were restored to health.

wmth@Mark:7:2 @ They had noticed that some of His disciples were eating their food with `unclean' (that is to say, unwashed) hands.

wmth@Mark:7:11 @ But say, `If a man says to his father or mother, It is a Korban (that is, a thing devoted to God), whatever it is, which otherwise you would have received from me–'

wmth@Mark:7:12 @ And so you no longer allow him to do anything for his father or mother,

wmth@Mark:7:17 @ After He had left the crowd and gone indoors, His disciples began to ask Him about this figure of speech.

wmth@Mark:7:19 @ because it does not go into his heart, but into his stomach, and passes away ejected from him?« By these words Jesus pronounced all kinds of food clean.

wmth@Mark:7:25 @ Forthwith a woman whose little daughter was possessed by a foul spirit heard of Him, and came and flung herself at His feet.

wmth@Mark:7:32 @ Here they brought to Him a deaf man that stammered, on whom they begged Him to lay His hands.

wmth@Mark:7:33 @ So Jesus taking him aside, apart from the crowd, put His fingers into his ears, and spat, and moistened his tongue;

wmth@Mark:7:35 @ And the man's ears were opened, and his tongue became untied, and he began to speak perfectly.

wmth@Mark:8:1 @ About that time there was again an immense crowd, and they found themselves with nothing to eat. So He called His disciples to Him.

wmth@Mark:8:2 @ »My heart yearns over the people,« He said; »for this is now the third day they have remained with me, and they have nothing to eat.

wmth@Mark:8:4 @ »Where can we possibly get bread here in this remote place to satisfy such a crowd?« answered His disciples.

wmth@Mark:8:6 @ So He passed the word to the people to sit down on the ground. Then taking the seven loaves He blessed them, and broke them into portions and proceeded to give them to His disciples for them to distribute, and they distributed them to the people.

wmth@Mark:8:7 @ They had also a few small fish. He blessed them, and He told His disciples to distribute these also.

wmth@Mark:8:10 @ and at once going on board with His disciples He came into the district of Dalmanutha.

wmth@Mark:8:16 @ they explained His words to one another by saying, »We have no bread!«

wmth@Mark:8:17 @ He perceived what they were saying, and He said to them, »What is this discussion of yours about having no bread? Do you not yet see and understand? Are your minds so dull of comprehension?

wmth@Mark:8:23 @ So He took the blind man by the arm and brought him out of the village, and spitting into his eyes He put His hands on him and asked him, »Can you see anything?«

wmth@Mark:8:25 @ Then for the second time He put His hands on the man's eyes, and the man, looking steadily, recovered his sight and saw everything distinctly.

wmth@Mark:8:27 @ From that place Jesus and His disciples went to the villages belonging to Caesarea Philippi. On the way He began to ask His disciples, »Who do people say that I am?«

wmth@Mark:8:30 @ And He strictly forbad them to tell this about Him to any one.

wmth@Mark:8:32 @ This He told them plainly; whereupon Peter took Him and began to remonstrate with Him.

wmth@Mark:8:33 @ But turning round and seeing His disciples, He rebuked Peter. »Get behind me, Adversary,« He said, »for your thoughts are not God's thoughts, but men's.«

wmth@Mark:8:34 @ Then calling to Him the crowd and also His disciples, He said to them, »If any one is desirous of following me, let him ignore self and take up his cross, and so be my follower.

wmth@Mark:8:35 @ For whoever is bent on securing his life will lose it, but he who loses his life for my sake, and for the sake of the Good News, will secure it.

wmth@Mark:8:36 @ Why, what does it benefit a man to gain the whole world and forfeit his life?

wmth@Mark:8:37 @ For what could a man give to buy back his life?

wmth@Mark:8:38 @ Every one, however, who has been ashamed of me and of my teachings in this faithless and sinful age, of him the Son of Man also will be ashamed when He comes in His Father's glory with the holy angels.«

wmth@Mark:9:2 @ Six days later, Jesus took with Him Peter, James, and John, and brought them alone, apart from the rest, up a high mountain; and in their presence His appearance underwent a change.

wmth@Mark:9:3 @ His garments also became dazzling with brilliant whiteness–such whiteness as no bleaching on earth could give.

wmth@Mark:9:7 @ Then there came a cloud spreading over them, and a voice issued from the cloud, »This is my Son, dearly loved: listen to Him.«

wmth@Mark:9:18 @ and wherever it comes upon him, it dashes him to the ground, and he foams at the mouth and grinds his teeth, and he is pining away. I begged your disciples to expel it, but they had not the power.«

wmth@Mark:9:21 @ Then Jesus asked the father, »How long has he been like this?«»From early childhood,« he said;

wmth@Mark:9:27 @ but Jesus took his hand and raised him up, and he stood on his feet.

wmth@Mark:9:28 @ After the return of Jesus to the house His disciples asked Him privately, »How is it that we could not expel the spirit?«

wmth@Mark:9:29 @ »An evil spirit of this kind,« He answered, »can only be driven out by prayer.«

wmth@Mark:9:31 @ for He was teaching His disciples, and telling them, »The Son of Man is to be betrayed into the hands of men, and they will put Him to death; and after being put to death, in three days He will rise to life again.«

wmth@Mark:9:36 @ And taking a young child He made him stand in their midst, then threw His arms round him and said,

wmth@Mark:9:37 @ »Whoever for my sake receives one such young child as this, receives me; and whoever receives me, receives not so much me as Him who sent me.«

wmth@Mark:9:41 @ and whoever gives you a cup of water to drink because you belong to Christ, I solemnly tell you that he will certainly not lose his reward.

wmth@Mark:10:1 @ Soon on His feet once more, He enters the district of Judaea and crosses the Jordan: again the people flock to Him, and ere long, as was usual with Him, He was teaching them once more.

wmth@Mark:10:2 @ Presently a party of Pharisees come to Him with the question–seeking to entrap Him, »May a man divorce his wife?«

wmth@Mark:10:4 @ »Moses,« they said, »permitted a man to draw up a written notice of divorce, and to send his wife away.«

wmth@Mark:10:17 @ As He went out to resume His journey, there came a man running up to Him, who knelt at His feet and asked, »Good Rabbi, what am I to do in order to inherit the Life of the Ages?«

wmth@Mark:10:22 @ At these words his brow darkened, and he went away sad; for he was possessed of great wealth.

wmth@Mark:10:23 @ Then looking round on His disciples Jesus said, »With how hard a struggle will the possessors of riches enter the Kingdom of God!«

wmth@Mark:10:24 @ The disciples were amazed at His words. Jesus, however, said again, »Children, how hard a struggle is it for those who trust in riches to enter the Kingdom of God!

wmth@Mark:10:50 @ The man flung away his outer garment, sprang to his feet, and came to Jesus.

wmth@Mark:10:52 @ »Go,« said Jesus, »your faith has cured you.« Instantly he regained his sight, and followed Him along the road.

wmth@Mark:11:1 @ When they were getting near Jerusalem and had arrived at Bethphage and Bethany, on the Mount of Olives, Jesus sent two of his disciples on in front, with these instructions.

wmth@Mark:11:14 @ and He said to the tree, »Let no one ever again eat fruit from thee!« And His disciples heard this.

wmth@Mark:11:18 @ This the High Priests and Scribes heard, and they began to devise means to destroy Him. For they were afraid of Him, because of the deep impression produced on all the people by His teaching.

wmth@Mark:11:19 @ When evening came on, Jesus and His disciples used to leave the city.

wmth@Mark:11:23 @ In solemn truth I tell you that if any one shall say to this mountain, `Remove, and hurl thyself into the sea,' and has no doubt about it in his heart, but stedfastly believes that what he says will happen, it shall be granted him.

wmth@Mark:12:2 @ At vintage-time he sent one of his servants to receive from the vine-dressers a share of the grapes.

wmth@Mark:12:8 @ »So they took him and killed him, and flung his body outside the vineyard.«

wmth@Mark:12:10 @ »Have you not read even this passage,« He added,

wmth@Mark:12:12 @ And they kept looking out for an opportunity to seize Him, but were afraid of the people; for they saw that in this parable He had referred to. So they left Him and went away.

wmth@Mark:12:16 @ They brought one; and He asked them, »Whose is this likeness and this inscription?«»Caesar's,« they replied.

wmth@Mark:12:20 @ There were once seven brothers, the eldest of whom married a wife, but at his death left no family.

wmth@Mark:13:34 @ It is like a man living abroad who has left his house, and given the management to his servants –to each one his special duty– and has ordered the porter to keep awake.

wmth@Mark:14:3 @ Now when He was at Bethany, in the house of Simon the Leper, while He was at table, there came a woman with a jar of pure, sweet-scented ointment very costly: she broke the jar and poured the ointment over His head.

wmth@Mark:14:9 @ And I solemnly tell you that wherever in the whole world the Good News shall be proclaimed, this which she has done shall also be told in remembrance of her.«

wmth@Mark:14:11 @ They gladly listened to his proposal, and promised to give him a sum of money. So he looked out for an opportunity to betray Him.

wmth@Mark:14:12 @ On the first day of the feast of Unleavened Bread –the day for killing the Passover lamb– His disciples asked Him, »Where shall we go and prepare for you to eat the Passover?«

wmth@Mark:14:13 @ So He sent two of His disciples with instructions, saying, »Go into the city, and you will meet a man carrying a pitcher of water: follow him,

wmth@Mark:14:22 @ Also during the meal He took a Passover biscuit, blessed it, and broke it. He then gave it to them, saying, »Take this, it is my body.«

wmth@Mark:14:30 @ »I solemnly tell you,« replied Jesus, »that to-day –this night– before the cock crows twice, you yourself will three times disown me.«

wmth@Mark:14:32 @ So they came to a place called Gethsemane. There He said to His disciples, »Sit down here till I have prayed.«

wmth@Mark:14:35 @ Going forward a short distance He threw Himself upon His face and prayed repeatedly that, if it was possible, He might be spared that time of agony;

wmth@Mark:14:36 @ and He said, »Abba! my Father! all things are possible for Thee: take this cup of suffering away from me: and yet not what I desire, but what Thou desirest.«

wmth@Mark:14:47 @ But one of those who stood by drew his sword and struck a blow at the High Priest's servant, cutting off his ear.

wmth@Mark:14:49 @ Day after day I used to be among you in the Temple teaching, and you never seized me. But this is happening in order that the Scriptures may be fulfilled.'

wmth@Mark:14:50 @ Then His friends all forsook Him and fled.

wmth@Mark:14:51 @ One youth indeed did follow Him, wearing only a linen cloth round his bare body. Of him they laid hold,

wmth@Mark:15:17 @ they arrayed Him in crimson, placed on His head a wreath of thorny twigs which they had twisted,

wmth@Mark:15:20 @ At last, having finished their sport, they took the robe off Him, put His own clothes on Him, and led Him out to crucify Him.

wmth@Mark:15:21 @ One Simon, a Cyrenaean, the father of Alexander and Rufus, was passing along, coming from the country: him they compelled to carry His cross.

wmth@Mark:15:24 @ Then they crucified Him. This done, they divided His garments among them, drawing lots to decide what each should take.

wmth@Mark:15:26 @ Over His head was the notice in writing of the charge against Him: THE KING OF THE JEWS.

wmth@Mark:15:27 @ And together with Jesus they crucified two robbers, one at His right hand and one at His left.

wmth@Mark:15:32 @ This Christ, the King of Israel, let him come down now from the cross, that we may see and believe.« Even the men who were being crucified with Him heaped insults on Him.

wmth@Mark:15:36 @ Then a man ran to fill a sponge with sour wine, and he put it on the end of a cane and placed it to His lips, saying at the same time, »Wait! let us see whether Elijah will come and take him down.«

wmth@Mark:15:37 @ But Jesus uttered a loud cry and yielded up His spirit.

wmth@Mark:15:39 @ And when the Centurion who stood in front of the cross saw that He was dead, he exclaimed, »This man was indeed God's Son.«

wmth@Mark:16:1 @ When the Sabbath was over, Mary of Magdala, Mary the mother of James, and Salome, bought spices, in order to come and anoint His body.

wmth@Mark:16:6 @ But he said to them, »Do not be terrified. It is Jesus you are looking for–the Nazarene who has been crucified. He has come back to life: He is not here: this is the place where they laid Him.

wmth@Luke:1:8 @ Now while he was doing priestly duty before God in the prescribed course of his class,

wmth@Luke:1:9 @ it fell to his lot –according to the custom of the priesthood– to go into the Sanctuary of the Lord and burn the incense;

wmth@Luke:1:15 @ For he will be great in the sight of the Lord; no wine or fermented drink shall he ever drink; but he will be filled with the Holy Spirit from the very hour of his birth.

wmth@Luke:1:17 @ and he will be His forerunner in the spirit and power of Elijah, to turn fathers' hearts to the children, and cause the rebellious to walk in the wisdom of the upright, to make a people perfectly ready for the lord.«

wmth@Luke:1:20 @ And now you will be dumb and unable to speak until the day when this has taken place; because you did not believe my words–words which will be fulfilled at their appointed time.«

wmth@Luke:1:23 @ When his days of service were at an end, he went to his home;

wmth@Luke:1:24 @ and in course of time his wife Elizabeth conceived, and kept herself secluded five months.

wmth@Luke:1:29 @ She was greatly agitated at his words, and wondered what such a greeting meant.

wmth@Luke:1:31 @ You will conceive in your womb and bear a son; and you are to call His name JESUS.

wmth@Luke:1:32 @ He will be great and He will be called `Son of the Most High.' And the Lord God will give Him the throne of His forefather David;

wmth@Luke:1:34 @ »How can this be,« Mary replied, »seeing that I have no husband?«

wmth@Luke:1:35 @ The angel answered, »The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you; and for this reason your holy offspring will be called `the Son of God.'

wmth@Luke:1:36 @ And see, your relative Elizabeth–she also has conceived a son in her old age; and this is the sixth month with her who was called barren.

wmth@Luke:1:39 @ Not long after this, Mary rose up and went in haste into the hill country to a town in Judah.

wmth@Luke:1:43 @ But why is this honour done me, that the mother of my Lord should come to me?

wmth@Luke:1:48 @ Because He has not turned from His maidservant in her lowly position; For from this time forward all generations will account me happy,

wmth@Luke:1:63 @ So he asked for a writing-tablet, and wrote, »His name is John.« And they all wondered.

wmth@Luke:1:64 @ Instantly his mouth and his tongue were set free, and he began to speak and bless God.

wmth@Luke:1:66 @ All who heard the story treasured it in their memories. »What then will this child be?« they said. For the lord's hand was indeed with him.

wmth@Luke:1:67 @ And Zechariah his father was filled with the Holy Spirit, and spoke in a rapture of praise.

wmth@Luke:1:68 @ »Blessed be the Lord, the God of Israel,« he said, »Because He has not forgotten His people but has effected redemption for them,

wmth@Luke:2:52 @ Then He went down with them and came to Nazareth, and was always obedient to them; but His mother carefully treasured up all these incidents in her memory.

wmth@Luke:7:38 @ and, standing behind close to His feet, weeping, began to wet His feet with her tears; and with her hair she wiped the tears away again, while she lovingly kissed His feet and poured the perfume over them.

wmth@Luke:7:40 @ In answer to his thoughts Jesus said to him, »Simon, I have a word to say to you.« »Rabbi, say on,« he replied.

wmth@Luke:7:44 @ Then turning towards the woman He said to Simon, »Do you see this woman? I came into your house: you gave me no water for my feet; but she has made my feet wet with her tears, and then wiped the tears away with her hair.

wmth@Luke:7:49 @ Then the other guests began to say to themselves, »Who can this man be who even forgives sins?«

wmth@Luke:8:1 @ Shortly after this He visited town after town, and village after village, proclaiming His Message and telling the Good News of the Kingdom of God. The Twelve were with Him,

wmth@Luke:23:6 @ On hearing this, Pilate inquired, »Is this man a Galilaean?«

wmth@Luke:23:11 @ Then, laughing to scorn the claims of Jesus, Herod (and his soldiers with him) made sport of Him, dressed Him in a gorgeous costume, and sent Him back to Pilate.

wmth@Luke:23:14 @ »You have brought this man to me on a charge of corrupting the loyalty of the people. But, you see, I have examined him in your presence and have discovered in the man no ground for the accusations which you bring against him.

wmth@Luke:23:18 @ Then the whole multitude burst out into a shout. »Away with this man,« they said, »and release Barabbas to us«

wmth@Luke:23:26 @ As soon as they led Him away, they laid hold on one Simon, a Cyrenaean, who was coming in from the country, and on his shoulders they put the cross, for him to carry it behind Jesus.

wmth@Luke:23:33 @ When they reached the place called `The Skull,' there they nailed Him to the cross, and the criminals also, one at His right hand and one at His left.

wmth@Luke:23:34 @ Jesus prayed, »Father, forgive them, for they know not what they are doing.« And they divided His garments among them, drawing lots for them;

wmth@Luke:23:35 @ and the people stood looking on. The Rulers, too, repeatedly uttered their bitter taunts. »This fellow,« they said, »saved others: let him save himself, if he is God's Anointed, the Chosen One.«

wmth@Luke:23:38 @ There was moreover a writing over His head: THIS IS THE KING OF THE JEWS.

wmth@Luke:23:43 @ »I tell you in solemn truth,« replied Jesus, »that this very day you shall be with me in Paradise.«

wmth@Luke:23:46 @ and Jesus cried out in a loud voice, and said, »Father, to Thy hands I entrust my spirit.« And after uttering these words He yielded up His spirit.

wmth@Luke:23:47 @ The Captain, seeing what had happened, gave glory to God, saying, »Beyond question this man was innocent.«

wmth@Luke:23:48 @ And all the crowds that had come together to this sight, after seeing all that had occurred, returned to the city beating their breasts.

wmth@Luke:23:49 @ But all His acquaintances, and the women who had been His followers after leaving Galilee, continued standing at a distance and looking on.

wmth@Luke:23:55 @ The women –those who had come with Jesus from Galilee– followed close behind, and saw the tomb and how His body was placed.

wmth@Luke:24:4 @ At this they were in great perplexity, when suddenly there stood by them two men whose raiment flashed like lightning.

wmth@Luke:24:8 @ Then they remembered His words,

wmth@Luke:24:9 @ and returning from the tomb they reported all this to the Eleven and to all the rest.

wmth@Luke:24:10 @ The women were Mary of Magdala, Joanna, and Mary the mother of James; and they and the rest of the women related all this to the Apostles.

wmth@Luke:24:12 @ Peter, however, rose and ran to the tomb. Stooping and looking in, he saw nothing but the linen cloths: so he went away to his own home, wondering at what had happened.

wmth@Luke:24:23 @ and, finding that His body was not there, they came and declared to us that they had also seen a vision of angels who said that He was alive.

wmth@Luke:24:26 @ Was there not a necessity for the Christ thus to suffer, and then enter into His glory?«

wmth@Luke:24:40 @ And then He showed them His hands and His feet.

wmth@Luke:24:44 @ And He said to them, »This is what I told you while I was still with you–that everything must be fulfilled that is written in the Law of Moses and in the Prophets and the Psalms concerning me.«

wmth@Luke:24:47 @ and that proclamation would be made, in His name, of repentance and forgiveness of sins to all the nations, beginning in Jerusalem.

wmth@Luke:24:50 @ And He brought them out to within view of Bethany, and then lifted up His hands and blessed them.

wmth@John:1:11 @ He came to the things that were His own, and His own people gave Him no welcome.

wmth@John:1:12 @ But all who have received Him, to them –that is, to those who trust in His name– He has given the privilege of becoming children of God;

wmth@John:1:14 @ And the Word came in the flesh, and lived for a time in our midst, so that we saw His glory–the glory as of the Father's only Son, sent from His presence. He was full of grace and truth.

wmth@John:1:15 @ John gave testimony concerning Him and cried aloud, saying, »This is He of whom I said, `He who is coming after me has been put before me,' for He was before me.«

wmth@John:1:19 @ This also is John's testimony, when the Jews sent to him a deputation of Priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask him who he was.

wmth@John:1:28 @ This conversation took place at Bethany beyond the Jordan, where John was baptizing.

wmth@John:1:30 @ This is He about whom I said, `After me is to come One who has been put before me, because He was before me.'

wmth@John:1:34 @ »This I have seen, and I have become a witness that He is the Son of God.«

wmth@John:1:35 @ Again the next day John was standing with two of his disciples,

wmth@John:1:37 @ The two disciples heard his exclamation, and they followed Jesus.

wmth@John:1:41 @ He first found his own brother Simon, and said to him, »We have found the Messiah!« –that is to say, the Anointed One.

wmth@John:2:2 @ and Jesus also was invited and His disciples.

wmth@John:2:5 @ His mother said to the attendants, »Whatever he tells you to do, do it.«

wmth@John:2:11 @ This, the first of His miracles, Jesus performed at Cana in Galilee, and thus displayed His glorious power; and His disciples believed in Him.

wmth@John:2:12 @ Afterwards He went down to Capernaum–He, and His mother, and His brothers, and His disciples; and they made a short stay there.

wmth@John:2:13 @ But the Jewish Passover was approaching, and for this Jesus went up to Jerusalem.

wmth@John:2:17 @ This recalled to His disciples the words of Scripture,

wmth@John:2:19 @ »Demolish this Sanctuary,« said Jesus, »and in three days I will rebuild it.«

wmth@John:2:20 @ »It has taken forty-six years,« replied the Jews, »to build this Sanctuary, and will you rebuild it in three days?«

wmth@John:2:21 @ But He was speaking of the Sanctuary of His body.

wmth@John:2:22 @ When however He had risen from among the dead, His disciples recollected that He had said this; and they believed the Scripture and the teaching which Jesus had given them.

wmth@John:2:24 @ But for His part, Jesus did not trust Himself to them, because He knew them all,

wmth@John:3:4 @ »How is it possible,« Nicodemus asked, »for a man to be born when he is old? Can he a second time enter his mother's womb and be born?«

wmth@John:3:9 @ »How is all this possible?« asked Nicodemus.

wmth@John:3:16 @ For so greatly did God love the world that He gave His only Son, that every one who trusts in Him may not perish but may have the Life of Ages.

wmth@John:3:17 @ For God did not send His Son into the world to judge the world, but that the world might be saved through Him.

wmth@John:3:18 @ He who trusts in Him does not come up for judgement. He who does not trust has already received sentence, because he has not his trust resting on the name of God's only Son.

wmth@John:3:19 @ And this is the test by which men are judged–the Light has come into the world, and men loved the darkness more than they loved the Light, because their deeds were wicked.

wmth@John:3:20 @ For every wrongdoer hates the light, and does not come to the light, for fear his actions should be exposed and condemned.

wmth@John:3:21 @ But he who does what is honest and right comes to the light, in order that his actions may be plainly shown to have been done in God.

wmth@John:3:22 @ After this Jesus and His disciples went into Judaea; and there He made a stay in company with them and baptized.

wmth@John:3:28 @ You yourselves can bear witness to my having said, `I am not the Christ,' but `I am His appointed forerunner.'

wmth@John:3:29 @ He who has the bride is the bridegroom; and the bridegroom's friend who stands by his side and listens to him, rejoices heartily on account of the bridegroom's happiness. Therefore this joy of mine is now complete.

wmth@John:3:31 @ He who comes from above is above all. He whose origin is from the earth is not only himself from the earth, his teaching also is from the earth. He who comes from Heaven is above all.

wmth@John:3:32 @ What He has seen and heard, to that He bears witness; but His testimony no one receives.

wmth@John:3:33 @ Any man who has received His testimony has solemnly declared that God is true.

wmth@John:3:35 @ The Father loves the Son and has entrusted everything to His hands.

wmth@John:4:2 @ though Jesus Himself did not baptize them, but His disciples did–

wmth@John:4:4 @ His road lay through Samaria,

wmth@John:4:5 @ and so He came to Sychar, a town in Samaria near the piece of land that Jacob gave to his son Joseph.

wmth@John:4:6 @ Jacob's Well was there: and accordingly Jesus, tired out with His journey, sat down by the well to rest. It was about six o'clock in the evening.

wmth@John:4:8 @ for His disciples were gone to the town to buy provisions.

wmth@John:4:12 @ Are you greater than our forefather Jacob, who gave us the well, and himself drank from it, as did also his sons and his cattle?«

wmth@John:4:13 @ »Every one,« replied Jesus, »who drinks any of this water will be thirsty again;

wmth@John:4:20 @ Our forefathers worshipped on this mountain, but you Jews say that the place where people must worship is in Jerusalem.«

wmth@John:4:21 @ »Believe me,« said Jesus, »the time is coming when you will worship the Father neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem.

wmth@John:4:27 @ Just then His disciples came, and were surprised to find Him talking with a woman. Yet not one of them asked Him, »What is your wish?« or »Why are you talking with her?«

wmth@John:4:29 @ »Come,« she said, »and see a man who has told me everything I have ever done. Can this be the Christ, do you think?«

wmth@John:4:34 @ »My food,« said Jesus, »is to be obedient to Him who sent me, and fully to accomplish His work.

wmth@John:4:37 @ For it is in this that you see the real meaning of the saying, `The sower is one person, and the reaper is another.'

wmth@John:4:41 @ Then a far larger number of people believed because of His own words,

wmth@John:4:42 @ and they said to the woman, »We no longer believe in Him simply because of your statements; for we have now heard for ourselves, and we know that this man really is the Saviour of the world.«

wmth@John:4:44 @ though Jesus Himself declared that a Prophet has no honour in his own country.

wmth@John:4:47 @ Having heard that Jesus had come from Judaea to Galilee, he came to Him and begged Him to go down and cure his son; for he was at the point of death.

wmth@John:4:51 @ and he was already on his way down when his servants met him and told him that his son was alive and well.

wmth@John:4:53 @ Then the father recollected that that was the time at which Jesus had said to him, »Your son has recovered,« and he and his whole household became believers.

wmth@John:4:54 @ This is the second miracle that Jesus performed, after coming from Judaea into Galilee.

wmth@John:5:1 @ After this there was a Festival of the Jews, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.

wmth@John:5:9 @ Instantly the man was restored to perfect health, and he took up his mat and began to walk.

wmth@John:5:16 @ and on this account the Jews began to persecute Jesus–because He did these things on the Sabbath.

wmth@John:5:17 @ His reply to their accusation was, »My Father works unceasingly, and so do I.«

wmth@John:5:18 @ On this account then the Jews were all the more eager to put Him to death–because He not only broke the Sabbath, but also spoke of God as being in a special sense His Father, thus putting Himself on a level with God.

wmth@John:5:28 @ Wonder not at this. For a time is coming when all who are in the graves will hear His voice and will come forth–

wmth@John:5:34 @ But the testimony on my behalf which I accept is not from man; though I say all this in order that you may be saved.

wmth@John:5:35 @ He was the lamp that burned and shone, and for a time you were willing to be gladdened by his light.

wmth@John:5:37 @ And the Father who sent me, has given testimony concerning me. None of you have ever either heard His voice or seen what He is like.

wmth@John:5:38 @ Nor have you His word dwelling within you, for you refuse to believe Him whom has sent.

wmth@John:5:47 @ But if you disbelieve his writings, how are you to believe my words?«

wmth@John:6:1 @ After this Jesus went away across the Lake of Galilee (that is, the Lake of Tiberias).

wmth@John:6:3 @ Then Jesus went up the hill, and sat there with His disciples.

wmth@John:6:6 @ He said this to put Philip to the test, for He Himself knew what He was going to do.

wmth@John:6:8 @ One of His disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, said to Him,

wmth@John:6:12 @ When all were fully satisfied, He said to His disciples, »Gather up the broken portions that remain over, so that nothing be lost.«

wmth@John:6:14 @ Thereupon the people, having seen the miracle He had performed, said, »This is indeed the Prophet who was to come into the world.«

wmth@John:6:16 @ When evening came on, His disciples went down to the Lake.

wmth@John:6:17 @ There they got on board a boat, and pushed off to cross the Lake to Capernaum. By this time it had become dark, and Jesus had not yet joined them.

wmth@John:6:22 @ Next morning the crowd who were still standing about on the other side of the Lake found that there had been but one small boat there, and they had seen that Jesus did not go on board with His disciples, but that His disciples went away without Him.

wmth@John:6:24 @ When however the crowd saw that neither Jesus nor His disciples were there, they themselves also took boats and came to Capernaum to look for Jesus.

wmth@John:6:27 @ Bestow your pains not on the food which perishes, but on the food that remains unto the Life of the Ages–that food which will be the Son of Man's gift to you; for on Him the Father, God, has set His seal.«

wmth@John:6:29 @ »This,« replied Jesus, »is above all the thing that God requires–that you should be believers in Him whom He has sent.«

wmth@John:6:39 @ And this is the will of Him who sent me, that of all that He has given me I should lose nothing, but should raise it to life on the last day.

wmth@John:6:40 @ For this is my Father's will, that every one who fixes his gaze on the Son of God and believes in Him should have the Life of the Ages, and I will raise him to life on the last day.«

wmth@John:6:41 @ Now the Jews began to find fault about Him because of His claiming to be the bread which came down out of Heaven.

wmth@John:6:42 @ They kept asking, »Is not this man Joseph's son? Is he not Jesus, whose father and mother we know? What does he mean by now saying, `I have come down out of Heaven'?«

wmth@John:6:51 @ I am the living bread come down out of Heaven. If a man eats this bread, he shall live for ever. Moreover the bread which I will give is my flesh given for the life of the world.«

wmth@John:6:52 @ This led to an angry debate among the Jews. »How can this man,« they argued, »give us his flesh to eat?«

wmth@John:6:53 @ »In most solemn truth I tell you,« said Jesus, »that unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink His blood, you have no Life in you.

wmth@John:6:58 @ This is the bread which came down out of Heaven; it is unlike that which your forefathers ate–for they ate and yet died. He who eats this bread shall live for ever.«

wmth@John:6:59 @ Jesus said all this in the synagogue while teaching at Capernaum.

wmth@John:6:60 @ Many therefore of His disciples, when they heard it, said, »This is hard to accept. Who can listen to such teaching?«

wmth@John:6:61 @ But, knowing in Himself that His disciples were dissatisfied about it, Jesus asked them,

wmth@John:6:62 @ »Does this seem incredible to you? What then if you were to see the Son of Man ascending again where He was before?

wmth@John:6:66 @ Thereupon many of His disciples left Him and went away, and no longer associated with Him.

wmth@John:7:1 @ After this Jesus moved from place to place in Galilee. He would not go about in Judaea, because the Jews were seeking an opportunity to kill Him.

wmth@John:7:3 @ So His brothers said to Him, »Leave these parts and go into Judaea, that not only we but your disciples also may witness the miracles which you perform.

wmth@John:7:5 @ For even His brothers were not believers in Him.

wmth@John:7:8 @ As for you, go up to the Festival. I do not now go up to this Festival, because my time is not yet fully come.«

wmth@John:7:9 @ Such was His answer, and He remained in Galilee.

wmth@John:7:10 @ When however His brothers had gone up to the Festival, then He also went up, not openly, but as it were privately.

wmth@John:7:15 @ The Jews were astonished. »How does this man know anything of books,« they said, »although he has never been at any of the schools?«

wmth@John:7:17 @ If any one is willing to do His will, he shall know about the teaching, whether it is from God or originates with me.

wmth@John:7:18 @ The man whose teaching originates with himself aims at his own glory. He who aims at the glory of Him who sent him teaches the truth, and there is no deception in him.

wmth@John:7:25 @ Some however of the people of Jerusalem said, »Is not this the man they are wanting to kill?

wmth@John:7:26 @ But here he is, speaking openly and boldly, and they say nothing to him! Can the Rulers really have ascertained that this man is the Christ?

wmth@John:7:27 @ And yet we know this man, and we know where he is from; but as for the Christ, when He comes, no one can tell where He is from.«

wmth@John:7:30 @ On hearing this they wanted to arrest Him; yet not a hand was laid on Him, because His time had not yet come.

wmth@John:7:31 @ But from among the crowd a large number believed in Him. »When the Christ comes,« they said, »will He perform more miracles than this teacher has performed?«

wmth@John:7:36 @ What do those words of his mean, `You will look for me, but will not find me, and where I am you cannot come'?«

wmth@John:7:40 @ After listening to these discourses, some of the crowd began to say, »This is beyond doubt the Prophet.«

wmth@John:7:43 @ So there was a violent dissension among the people on His account.

wmth@John:7:46 @ »No mere man has ever spoken as this man speaks,« said the officers.

wmth@John:7:49 @ But this rabble who understand nothing about the Law are accursed!«

wmth@John:7:51 @ »Does our Law,« he asked, »judge a man without first hearing what he has to say and ascertaining what his conduct is?«

wmth@John:8:4 @ »Rabbi,« they said, »this woman has been found in the very act of committing adultery.

wmth@John:8:6 @ They asked this in order to put Him to the test, so that they might have some charge to bring against Him. But Jesus leant forward and began to write with His finger on the ground.

wmth@John:8:7 @ When however they persisted with their question, He raised His head and said to them, »Let the sinless man among you be the first to throw a stone at her.«

wmth@John:8:10 @ Then, raising His head, Jesus said to her, »Where are they? Has no one condemned you?«

wmth@John:8:11 @ »No one, Sir,« she replied. »And do not condemn you either,« said Jesus; »go, and from this time do not sin any more.«]

wmth@John:8:20 @ These sayings He uttered in the Treasury, while teaching in the Temple; yet no one arrested Him, because His time had not yet come.

wmth@John:8:23 @ »You,« He continued, »are from below, I am from above: you are of this present world, I am not of this present world.

wmth@John:8:35 @ Now a slave does not remain permanently in his master's house, but a son does.

wmth@John:8:44 @ The father whose sons you are is the Devil; and you desire to do what gives him pleasure. was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand firm in the truth–for there is no truth in him. Whenever he utters his lie, he utters it out of his own store; for he is a liar, and the father of lies.

wmth@John:8:55 @ You do not know Him, but I know Him perfectly; and were I to deny my knowledge of Him, I should resemble you, and be a liar. On the contrary I do know Him, and I obey His commands.

wmth@John:9:1 @ As He passed by, He saw a man who had been blind from his birth.

wmth@John:9:2 @ So His disciples asked Him, »Rabbi, who sinned –this man or his parents– that he was born blind?«

wmth@John:9:3 @ »Neither he nor his parents sinned,« answered Jesus, »but he was born blind in order that God's mercy might be openly shown in him.

wmth@John:9:7 @ »Go and wash in the pool of Siloam« –the name means `Sent.' So he went and washed his eyes, and returned able to see.

wmth@John:9:8 @ His neighbours, therefore, and the other people to whom he had been a familiar object because he was a beggar, began asking, »Is not this the man who used to sit and beg?«

wmth@John:9:9 @ »Yes it is,« replied some of them. »No it is not,« said others, »but he is like him.« His own statement was, »I am the man.«

wmth@John:9:15 @ So the Pharisees renewed their questioning as to how he had obtained his sight. »He put clay on my eyes,« he replied, »and I washed, and now I can see.«

wmth@John:9:16 @ This led some of the Pharisees to say, »That man has not come from God, for he does not keep the Sabbath.«»How is it possible for a bad man to do such miracles?« argued others.

wmth@John:9:18 @ The Jews, however, did not believe the statement concerning him –that he had been blind and had obtained his sight– until they called his parents and asked them,

wmth@John:9:19 @ »Is this your son, who you say was born blind? How is it then that he can now see?«

wmth@John:9:20 @ »We know,« replied the parents, »that this is our son and that he was born blind;

wmth@John:9:21 @ but how it is that he can now see or who has opened his eyes we do not know. Ask him himself; he is of full age; he himself will give his own account of it.«

wmth@John:9:23 @ That was why his parents said, »He is of full age: ask him himself.«

wmth@John:9:27 @ »I have told you already,« he replied, »and you did not listen to me. Why do you want to hear it again? Do you also mean to be disciples of his?«

wmth@John:9:29 @ We know that God spoke to Moses; but as for this fellow we do not know where he comes from.«

wmth@John:9:30 @ »Why, this is marvellous!« the man replied; »you do not know where he comes from, and yet he has opened my eyes!

wmth@John:9:32 @ From the beginning of the world such a thing was never heard of as that any one should open the eyes of a man blind from his birth.

wmth@John:9:35 @ Jesus heard that they had done this. So having found him, He asked him, »Do you believe in the Son of God?«

wmth@John:9:38 @ »I believe, Sir,« he said. And he threw himself at His feet.

wmth@John:9:39 @ »I came into this world,« said Jesus, »to judge men, that those who do not see may see, and that those who do see may become blind.«

wmth@John:10:3 @ To him the porter opens the door, and the sheep hear his voice; and he calls his own sheep by their names and leads them out.

wmth@John:10:4 @ When he has brought out his own sheep –all of them– he walks at the head of them; and the sheep follow him, because they know his voice.

wmth@John:10:6 @ Jesus spoke to them in this figurative language, but they did not understand what He meant.

wmth@John:10:11 @ »I am the Good Shepherd. A good shepherd lays down his very life for the sheep.«

wmth@John:10:16 @ I have also other sheep–which do not belong to this fold. Those also I must bring, and they will listen to my voice; and they shall become one flock under one Shepherd.

wmth@John:10:17 @ For this reason my Father loves me, because I am laying down my life in order to receive it back again.

wmth@John:10:18 @ No one is taking it away from me, but I myself am laying it down. I am authorized to lay it down, and I am authorized to receive it back again. This is the command I received from my Father.«

wmth@John:10:39 @ This made them once more try to arrest Him, but He withdrew out of their power.

wmth@John:10:41 @ Large numbers of people also came to Him. Their report was, »John did not work any miracle, but all that John said about this Teacher was true.«

wmth@John:11:2 @ (It was the Mary who poured the perfume over the Lord and wiped His feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was ill.)

wmth@John:11:4 @ Jesus received the message and said, »This illness is not to end in death, but is to promote the glory of God, in order that the Son of God may be glorified by it.«

wmth@John:11:9 @ »Are there not twelve hours in the day?« replied Jesus. »If any one walks in the daytime, he does not stumble–because he sees the light of this world.

wmth@John:11:11 @ He said this, and afterwards He added, »Our friend Lazarus is sleeping, but I will go and wake him.«

wmth@John:11:13 @ Now Jesus had spoken of his death, but they thought He referred to the rest taken in ordinary sleep.

wmth@John:11:16 @ »Let us go also,« Thomas, the Twin, said to his fellow disciples, »that we may die with him.«

wmth@John:11:17 @ On His arrival Jesus found that Lazarus had already been three days in the tomb.

wmth@John:11:26 @ and every one who is living and is a believer in me shall never, never die. Do you believe this?«

wmth@John:11:28 @ After saying this, she went and called her sister Mary privately, telling her, »The Rabbi is here and is asking for you.«

wmth@John:11:32 @ Mary then, when she came to Jesus and saw Him, fell at His feet and exclaimed, »Master, if you had been here, my brother would not have died.«

wmth@John:11:33 @ Seeing her weeping aloud, and the Jews in like manner weeping who had come with her, Jesus, curbing the strong emotion of His spirit,

wmth@John:11:37 @ But others of them asked, »Was this man who opened the blind man's eyes unable to prevent this man from dying?«

wmth@John:11:38 @ Jesus, however, again restraining His strong feeling, came to the tomb. It was a cave, and a stone had been laid against the mouth of it.

wmth@John:11:39 @ »Take away the stone,« said Jesus. Martha, the sister of the dead man, exclaimed, »Master, by this time there is a foul smell; for it is three days since he died.«

wmth@John:11:41 @ So they removed the stone. Then Jesus lifted up His eyes and said, »Father, I thank Thee that Thou hast heard me.

wmth@John:11:42 @ I know that Thou always hearest me; but for the sake of the crowd standing round I have said this–that they may believe that Thou didst send me.«

wmth@John:11:44 @ The dead man came out, his hands and feet wrapped in cloths, and his face wrapped round with a towel. »Untie him,« said Jesus, »and let him go free.«

wmth@John:11:45 @ Thereupon a considerable number of the Jews– namely those who had come to Mary and had witnessed His deeds– became believers in Him;

wmth@John:11:47 @ Therefore the High Priests and the Pharisees held a meeting of the Sanhedrin. »What steps are we taking?« they asked one another; »for this man is performing a great number of miracles.

wmth@John:11:48 @ If we leave him alone in this way, everybody will believe in him, and the Romans will come and blot out both our city and our nation.«

wmth@John:12:3 @ Availing herself of the opportunity, Mary took a pound weight of pure spikenard, very costly, and poured it over His feet, and wiped His feet with her hair, so that the house was filled with the fragrance of the perfume.

wmth@John:12:6 @ The reason he said this was not that he cared for the poor, but that he was a thief, and that being in charge of the money-box, he used to steal what was put into it.

wmth@John:12:9 @ Now it became widely known among the Jews that Jesus was there; but they came not only on His account, but also in order to see Lazarus whom He had brought back to life.

wmth@John:12:16 @ The meaning of this His disciples did not understand at the time; but after Jesus was glorified they recollected that this was written about Him, and that they had done this to Him.

wmth@John:12:18 @ This was also why the crowd came to meet Him, because they had heard of His having performed that miracle.

wmth@John:12:23 @ His answer was, »The time has come for the Son of Man to be glorified.

wmth@John:12:25 @ He who holds his life dear, is destroying it; and he who makes his life of no account in this world shall keep it to the Life of the Ages.

wmth@John:12:27 @ Now is my soul full of trouble; and what shall I say? Father, save me from this hour. But for this purpose I have come to this hour.

wmth@John:12:31 @ Now is a judgement of this world: now will the Prince of this world be driven out.

wmth@John:12:33 @ He said this to indicate the kind of death He would die.

wmth@John:12:36 @ In the degree that you have light, believe in the Light, so that you may become sons of Light.« Jesus said this, and went away and hid Himself from them.

wmth@John:12:39 @ For this reason they were unable to believe–because Isaiah said again,

wmth@John:12:41 @ Isaiah uttered these words because he saw His glory; and he spoke of Him.

wmth@John:12:50 @ And I know that His command is the Life of the Ages. What therefore I speak, I speak just as the Father has bidden me.«

wmth@John:13:1 @ Now just before the Feast of the Passover this incident took place. Jesus knew that the time had come for Him to leave this world and go to the Father; and having loved His own who were in the world, He loved them to the end.

wmth@John:13:2 @ While supper was proceeding, the Devil having by this time suggested to Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon, the thought of betraying Him, Jesus,

wmth@John:13:3 @ although He knew that the Father had put everything into His hands, and that He had come forth from God and was now going to God,

wmth@John:13:4 @ rose from the table, threw off His upper garments, and took a towel and tied it round Him.

wmth@John:13:10 @ »Any one who has lately bathed,« said Jesus, »does not need to wash more than his feet, but is clean all over. And you my disciples are clean, and yet this is not true of all of you.«

wmth@John:13:12 @ So after He had washed their feet, put on His garments again, and returned to the table, He said to them, »Do you understand what I have done to you?

wmth@John:13:16 @ In most solemn truth I tell you that a servant is not superior to his master, nor is a messenger superior to him who sent him.

wmth@John:13:17 @ If you know all this, blessed are you if you act accordingly.

wmth@John:13:19 @ From this time forward I tell you things before they happen, in order that when they do happen you may believe that I am He.

wmth@John:13:23 @ There was at table one of His disciples –the one Jesus loved– reclining with his head on Jesus's bosom.

wmth@John:13:25 @ So he, having his head on Jesus's bosom, leaned back and asked, »Master, who is it?«

wmth@John:13:26 @ »It is the one,« answered Jesus, »for whom I shall dip this piece of bread and to whom I shall give it.« Accordingly He dipped the piece of bread, and took it and gave it to Judas, the son of the Iscariot Simon.

wmth@John:13:28 @ But why He said this no one else at the table understood.

wmth@John:13:35 @ It is by this that every one will know that you are my disciples–if you love one another.«

wmth@John:14:7 @ If you –all of you– knew me, you would fully know my Father also. From this time forward you know Him and have seen Him.«

wmth@John:14:10 @ Do you not believe that I am in the Father and that the Father is in me? The things that I tell you all I do not speak on my own authority: but the Father dwelling within me carries on His own work.

wmth@John:14:25 @ »All this I have spoken to you while still with you.«

wmth@John:14:30 @ In future I shall not talk much with you, for the Prince of this world is coming. And yet in me he has nothing;

wmth@John:15:8 @ By this is God glorified–by your bearing abundant fruit and thus being true disciples of mine.

wmth@John:15:10 @ If you obey my commands, you will continue in my love, as I have obeyed my Father's commands and continue in His love.

wmth@John:15:12 @ This is my commandment to you, to love one another as I have loved you.

wmth@John:15:13 @ No one has greater love than this–a man laying down his life for his friends.

wmth@John:15:15 @ No longer do I call you servants, because a servant does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, because all that I have heard from the Father I have made known to you.

wmth@John:15:20 @ Bear in mind what I said to you, `A servant is not superior to his master.' If they have persecuted me, they will also persecute you: if they have obeyed my teaching, they will obey yours also.

wmth@John:15:21 @ But they will inflict all this suffering upon you on account of your bearing my name–because they do not know Him who sent me.

wmth@John:15:25 @ But this has been so, in order that the saying may be fulfilled which stands written in their Law,

wmth@John:16:4 @ But I have spoken these things to you in order that when the time for their accomplishment comes you may remember them, and may recollect that I told you. I did not, however, tell you all this at first, because I was still with you.

wmth@John:16:6 @ But grief has filled your hearts because I have said all this to you.

wmth@John:16:11 @ of judgement, because the Prince of this world is under sentence.

wmth@John:16:17 @ Some of His disciples therefore said to one another, »What does this mean which He is telling us, `A little while and you do not see me, and again a little while and you shall see me,' and `Because I am going to the Father'?«

wmth@John:16:18 @ So they asked one another repeatedly, »What can that `little while' mean which He speaks of? We do not understand His words.«

wmth@John:16:19 @ Jesus perceived that they wanted to ask Him, and He said, »Is this what you are questioning one another about–my saying, `A little while and you do not see me, and again a little while and you shall see me'?

wmth@John:16:25 @ »All this I have spoken to you in veiled language. The time is coming when I shall no longer speak to you in veiled language, but will tell you about the Father in plain words.«

wmth@John:16:29 @ »Ah, now you are using plain language,« said His disciples, »and are uttering no figure of speech!

wmth@John:16:30 @ Now we know that you have all knowledge, and do not need to be pressed with questions. Through this we believe that you came from God.«

wmth@John:16:32 @ »Remember that the time is coming, nay, has already come, for you all to be dispersed each to his own home and to leave me alone. And yet I am not alone, for the Father is with me.«

wmth@John:16:33 @ »I have spoken all this to you in order that in me you may have peace. In the world you have affliction. But keep up your courage: have won the victory over the world.«

wmth@John:17:1 @ When Jesus had thus spoken, He raised his eyes towards Heaven and said, »Father, the hour has come. Glorify Thy Son that the Son may glorify Thee;

wmth@John:17:3 @ And in this consists the Life of the Ages–in knowing Thee the only true God and Jesus Christ whom Thou hast sent.

wmth@John:18:1 @ After offering this prayer Jesus went out with His disciples to a place on the further side of the Ravine of the Cedars, where there was a garden which He entered–Himself and His disciples.

wmth@John:18:2 @ Now Judas also, who at that very time was betraying Him, knew the place, for Jesus had often resorted there with His disciples.

wmth@John:18:9 @ He made this request in order that the words He had spoken might be fulfilled, »As for those whom Thou hast given me, I have not lost one.«

wmth@John:18:10 @ Simon Peter, however, having a sword, drew it, and, aiming at the High Priest's servant, cut off his right ear. The servant's name was Malchus.

wmth@John:18:14 @ (It was this Caiaphas who had advised the Jews, saying, »It is to your interest that one man should die for the People.«)

wmth@John:18:17 @ This led the girl, the portress, to ask Peter, »Are you also one of this man's disciples?«»No, I am not,« he replied.

wmth@John:18:19 @ So the High Priest questioned Jesus about His disciples and His teaching.

wmth@John:18:22 @ Upon His saying this, one of the officers standing by struck Him with his open hand, asking Him as he did so, »Is that the way you answer the High Priest?«

wmth@John:18:25 @ But Simon Peter remained standing and warming himself, and this led to their asking him, »Are you also one of his disciples?« He denied it, and said, »No, I am not.«

wmth@John:18:29 @ Accordingly Pilate came out to them and inquired, »What accusation have you to bring against this man?«

wmth@John:18:32 @ They said this that the words might be fulfilled in which Jesus predicted the kind of death He was to die.

wmth@John:18:34 @ »Do you say this of yourself, or have others told it you about me?« replied Jesus.

wmth@John:18:36 @ »My kingdom,« replied Jesus, »does not belong to this world. If my kingdom did belong to this world, my subjects would have resolutely fought to save me from being delivered up to the Jews. But, as a matter of fact, my kingdom has not this origin.«

wmth@John:18:37 @ »So then are a king!« rejoined Pilate. »Yes,« said Jesus, »you say truly that I am a king. For this purpose I was born, and for this purpose I have come into the world–to give testimony for the truth. Every one who is a friend of the truth listens to my voice.«

wmth@John:18:40 @ With a roar of voices they again cried out, saying, »Not this man, but Barabbas!« Now Barabbas was a robber.

wmth@John:19:2 @ And the soldiers, twisting twigs of thorn into a wreath, put it on His head, and threw round Him a crimson cloak.

wmth@John:19:12 @ Upon receiving this answer, Pilate was for releasing Him. But the Jews kept shouting, »If you release this man, you are no friend of Caesar's. Every one who sets himself up as king declares himself a rebel against Caesar.«

wmth@John:19:13 @ On hearing this, Pilate brought Jesus out, and sat down on the judge's seat in a place called the Pavement–or in Hebrew, Gabbatha.

wmth@John:19:15 @ This caused a storm of outcries, »Away with him! Away with him! Crucify him!«»Am I to crucify your king?« Pilate asked. »We have no king, except Caesar,« answered the High Priests.

wmth@John:19:17 @ and He went out carrying His own cross, to the place called Skull-place –or, in Hebrew, Golgotha–

wmth@John:19:20 @ Many of the Jews read this notice, for the place where Jesus was crucified was near the city, and the notice was in three languages–Hebrew, Latin, and Greek.

wmth@John:19:21 @ This led the Jewish High Priests to remonstrate with Pilate. »You should not write `The King of the Jews,'« they said, »but that he claimed to be King of the Jews.«

wmth@John:19:23 @ So the soldiers, as soon as they had crucified Jesus, took His garments, including His tunic, and divided them into four parts–one part for each soldier. The tunic was without seam, woven from the top in one piece.

wmth@John:19:24 @ So they said to one another, »Do not let us tear it. Let us draw lots for it.« This happened that the Scripture might be fulfilled which says, That was just what the soldiers did.

wmth@John:19:25 @ Now standing close to the cross of Jesus were His mother and His mother's sister, Mary the wife of Clopas, and Mary of Magdala.

wmth@John:19:26 @ So Jesus, seeing His mother, and seeing the disciple whom He loved standing near, said to His mother, »Behold, your son!«

wmth@John:19:27 @ Then He said to the disciple, »Behold, your mother!« And from that time the disciple received her into his own home.

wmth@John:19:28 @ After this, Jesus, knowing that everything was now brought to an end, said–that the Scripture might be fulfilled, »I am thirsty.«

wmth@John:19:29 @ There was a jar of wine standing there. With this wine they filled a sponge, put it on the end of a stalk of hyssop, and lifted it to His mouth.

wmth@John:19:30 @ As soon as Jesus had taken the wine, He said, »It is finished.« And then, bowing His head, He yielded up His spirit.

wmth@John:19:33 @ Then they came to Jesus Himself: but when they saw that He was already dead, they refrained from breaking His legs.

wmth@John:19:34 @ One of the soldiers, however, made a thrust at His side with a lance, and immediately blood and water flowed out.

wmth@John:19:35 @ This statement is the testimony of an eye-witness, and it is true. He knows that he is telling the truth–in order that you also may believe.

wmth@John:19:36 @ For all this took place that the Scripture might be fulfilled which declares,

wmth@John:19:38 @ After this, Joseph of Arimathaea, who was a disciple of Jesus, but for fear of the Jews a secret disciple, asked Pilate's permission to carry away the body of Jesus; and Pilate gave him leave. So he came and removed the body.

wmth@John:20:17 @ »Do not cling to me,« said Jesus, »for I have not yet ascended to the Father. But take this message to my brethren: `I am ascending to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.'«

wmth@John:20:20 @ Having said this He showed them His hands and also His side; and the disciples were filled with joy at seeing the Master.

wmth@John:20:22 @ Having said this He breathed upon them and said, »Receive the Holy Spirit.

wmth@John:20:25 @ So the rest of the disciples told him, »We have seen the Master!« His reply was, »Unless I see in his hands the wound made by the nails and put my finger into the wound, and put my hand into his side, I will never believe it.«

wmth@John:20:30 @ There were also a great number of other signs which Jesus performed in the presence of the disciples, which are not recorded in this book.

wmth@John:20:31 @ But these have been recorded in order that you may believe that He is the Christ, the Son of God, and that, through believing, you may have Life through His name.

wmth@John:21:1 @ After this, Jesus again showed Himself to the disciples. It was at the Lake of Tiberias. The circumstances were as follows.

wmth@John:21:7 @ This made the disciple whom Jesus loved say to Peter, »It is the Master.« Simon Peter therefore, when he heard the words, »It is the Master,« drew on his fisherman's shirt –for he had not been wearing it– put on his girdle, and sprang into the water.

wmth@John:21:12 @ »Come this way and have breakfast,« said Jesus. But not one of the disciples ventured to question Him as to who He was, for they felt sure that it was the Master.

wmth@John:21:14 @ This was now the third occasion on which Jesus showed Himself to the disciples after He had risen from among the dead.

wmth@John:21:15 @ When they had finished breakfast, Jesus asked Simon Peter, »Simon, son of John, do you love me more than these others do?«»Yes, Master,« was his answer; »you know that you are dear to me.« »Then feed my lambs,« replied Jesus.

wmth@John:21:19 @ This He said to indicate the kind of death by which that disciple would bring glory to God; and after speaking thus He said to him, »Follow me.«

wmth@John:21:20 @ Peter turned round and noticed the disciple whom Jesus loved following–the one who at the supper had leaned back on His breast and had asked, »Master, who is it that is betraying you?«

wmth@John:21:24 @ That is the disciple who gives his testimony as to these matters, and has written this history; and we know that his testimony is true.
