mnt@Matthew:1:5 @ Salmon (by Rahab), of Boaz; Boaz (by Ruth), of Obed; Obed, of Jesse;
mnt@Matthew:1:6 @ And Jesse, of David the king. David (by Uriahs widow), was the father of Solomon;
mnt@Matthew:1:7 @ Solomon, of Rehoboam; Rehoboam, of Abijah; Abijah, of Asa;
mnt@Matthew:1:8 @ Asa, of Jehoshaphat; Jehoshaphat, of Joram; Joram, of Uzziah;

mnt@Matthew:1:16 @ And Jacob, of Joseph, the husband of Mary, of whom was born Jesus, who is called Christ.
mnt@Matthew:1:17 @ So the whole number of generations from Abraham to David is fourteen; from David to the exile to Babylon is fourteen; and from the exile to Babylon to Christ is fourteen.
mnt@Matthew:1:18 @ The birth of Jesus Christ took place in this way. After his mother, Mary, had been betrothed to Joseph, before they came together, she was found to be with child by the Holy Spirit.
mnt@Matthew:1:20 @ And while he was having this in mind, behold! an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying.
mnt@Matthew:1:21 @ "Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary your wife home, for what is begotten in her is by the Holy Spirit; and she will bear a son, and you are to call him Jesus, for he will save his people from their sins."
mnt@Matthew:1:22 @ All this happened that the word of the Lord spoken through the prophet might be fulfilled.
mnt@Matthew:1:24 @ Now when Joseph awoke from his sleep he did as the angel of the Lord had directed him, and took his wife home,
mnt@Matthew:1:25 @ but did not live with her until after the birth of her son, whom he called Jesus.
mnt@Matthew:2:1 @ After the birth of Jesus, which took place at Bethlehem in Judea, during the reign of King Herod, lo! certain Magi arrived in Jerusalem, saying.
mnt@Matthew:2:2 @ "Where is the new-born King of the Jews? For we have seen his star in the East, and are come to worship him."
mnt@Matthew:2:4 @ So when he had gathered together all the chief priests and rabbis of the people, he began to inquire of them where the Christ was to be born.
mnt@Matthew:2:6 @ "And thou Bethlehem in the land of Judah, Thou are not least among the princes of Judah, For out of thee shall come a ruler Who shall shepherd my people, Israel."
mnt@Matthew:2:13 @ When they were gone an angel of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream, saying; "Rise! Take the young child and his mother and flee into Egypt, and there remain until I bring you word; for Herod intends to make a search for the child, in order to put him to death."
mnt@Matthew:2:15 @ There he remained until the death of Herod, in order that the word of the Lord through the prophet might be fulfilled, which says, Out of Egypt I called my son.
mnt@Matthew:2:19 @ But after Herods death an angel of the Lord appeared in a dream to Joseph in Egypt,
mnt@Matthew:2:20 @ saying, "Rise! Take the child and his mother, and came into the land of Israel, for those who were seeking the life of the child are dead."
mnt@Matthew:2:21 @ So he rose and took the child and his mother, and came into the land of Israel.
mnt@Matthew:2:22 @ But when he heard that Archelaus was reigning in Judea in place of his father, Herod, he was afraid to go there; and being warned of God in a dream, he withdrew into Galilee and settled in a town called Nazareth,
mnt@Matthew:2:23 @ in fulfillment of the word spoken through the Prophets, He shall be called a Nazarene.
mnt@Matthew:3:1 @ In those days came John the Baptist preaching in the desert of Judea;
mnt@Matthew:3:2 @ "Repent," said he, "for the kingdom of heaven is at hand."
mnt@Matthew:3:3 @ This Johnit was of whom it was said through Isaiah, the prophet, The voice of one who cries aloud in the desert, "Prepare a way for the Lord, Make the paths straight for him."
mnt@Matthew:3:4 @ This Johnwore a garment of camels hair, and a leather belt around his waist, and his food was locusts and wild honey.
mnt@Matthew:3:5 @ Then Jerusalem began to go out to him, and all Judea, and the whole neighborhood of the Jordan,
mnt@Matthew:3:7 @ But when Johnsaw that many of the Pharisees and Sadducees were coming for baptism, he said. "O brood of vipers! Who has warned you to flee from the wrath to come?
mnt@Matthew:3:8 @ Then bring forth fruit worthy of repentance.
mnt@Matthew:3:9 @ And do not presume to say to yourselves, We have Abraham as our father-I tell you that out of these very stones God is able to raise up descendants for Abraham.
mnt@Matthew:3:10 @ And already the axe is lying at the roots of the trees. Any tree, therefore, that does not bear good fruit is cut down and cast into the fire.
mnt@Matthew:3:16 @ Then he consented. And after Jesus was baptized, as soon as he rose out of the water, lo! the heavens opened, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and alighting upon him,
mnt@Matthew:4:3 @ So the tempter came and said to him, "If you are the Son of God, bid these stones to become bread."
mnt@Matthew:4:4 @ Jesus answered him, "It is written, Not by bread alone shall man live, but by every word that comes from the mouth of God."
mnt@Matthew:4:5 @ Then the devil took him up into the Holy City and stood him on the parapet of the temple,
mnt@Matthew:4:6 @ and said to him. "If you are the Son of God, throw yourself down; for it is written, "He will give his angels charge over thee; Upon their hands they will bear thee up, Lest thou dash thy foot against a stone."
mnt@Matthew:4:8 @ Then the devil took Jesus to a very high mountain, and showed all the kingdoms of the earth and the glory of them,
mnt@Matthew:4:13 @ He left Nazareth, and settled in Capernaum-by-the-Lake, near the borders of Zebulun and Naphtali,
mnt@Matthew:4:15 @ Land of Zebulun, land of Naphtali; The road by the Lake; the country beyond Jordan; Galilee of the Gentiles!
mnt@Matthew:4:16 @ The people who were dwelling in darkness Have seen a great light; And on those who were dwelling in the land of the shadows of death Light has dawned.
mnt@Matthew:4:17 @ From that time Jesus began to preach, saying, "Repent for the kingdom of heaven is near."
mnt@Matthew:4:18 @ And as he was walking by the see of Galilee, he saw two brothers- Simon who is called Peter, and Andrew, his brother-casting their net into the sea, for they were fishermen.
mnt@Matthew:4:19 @ "Come, follow me," said Jesus, "And I will make you fishers of men."
mnt@Matthew:4:21 @ As he went farther on he saw two other brothers, Jamesthe son of Zebedee, and Johnhis brother, in the boat with Zebedee their father, mending their nets, and he called them.
mnt@Matthew:4:23 @ Then Jesus went about through Galilee, teaching in the synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing every kind of disease and infirmity among the people.
mnt@Matthew:5:3 @ "Blessed are the poor in spirit, for the kingdom of heaven is theirs.

mnt@Matthew:5:19 @ "So whoever breaks one of these least commandments, and teaches others to break them, will be least in the kingdom of heaven. But he who keeps them and teaches them, he will be called great in the kingdom of heaven.
mnt@Matthew:5:20 @ "For I assure you that unless your righteousness exceed that of the scribes and Pharisees, you will not find entrance into the kingdom of heaven.
mnt@Matthew:5:22 @ but I say to you that he who becomes angry with his brother shall be liable to condemnation by the court; and he who says to his brother Raca, shall be liable to condemnation by the Sanhedrin, while he who curses his brother shall be liable to the Gehenna of Fire.
mnt@Matthew:5:23 @ "If therefore when you are offering your gift upon the altar, and there remember that your brother has a grievance against you,
