Matthew:1:3 @ Judah was the father of Perez and Zerah (note:)Tamar was their mother(:note); Perez was the father of Hezron; Hezron was the father of Ram;
riversident@Matthew:1:16 @ Jacob was the father of Joseph the husband of Mary, of whom was born Jesus, who is called Christ.
riversident@Matthew:1:18 @ The birth of Jesus was in this way: His mother Mary had been betrothed to Joseph, but before they came together she was found to be with child by the Holy Spirit.
riversident@Matthew:1:20 @ But while he was thinking this over, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream and said, "Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary as your wife, for what has been conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit.
riversident@Matthew:2:11 @ They entered the house and saw the child with Mary his mother, and they fell down and did him homage. Then they opened their treasures and presented to him gifts, gold and frankincense and myrrh.
riversident@Matthew:13:55 @ Is not this the carpenter's son? Is not his mother named Mary and his brothers James and Joseph and Simon and Judas?
riversident@Matthew:19:10 @ His disciples said to him, "If this is the case of a man with his wife, it is better not to marry."
riversident@Matthew:22:24 @ "Teacher, Moses said, 'If any man dies childless, his brother shall marry his widow and raise up offspring for his brother.'
riversident@Matthew:22:25 @ Now there were with us seven brothers. The first married and died childless and left his wife to his brother.
riversident@Matthew:27:56 @ Among them were Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James and Joses, and the mother of the sons of Zebedee.
riversident@Matthew:27:61 @ Mary Magdalene remained there and the other Mary, sitting opposite the tomb.
riversident@Matthew:28:1 @ LATE on the Sabbath, as the first day of the week was drawing near, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary came to look at the tomb.
riversident@Mark:1:1 @ THE Beginning of the Good News of Jesus Christ.
riversident@Mark:1:2 @ It is written in Isaiah the prophet, "Behold, I am sending my messenger before your face, who will prepare your way.
riversident@Mark:1:3 @ The voice of one crying in the wilderness, 'Make ready the way of the Lord; make his paths straight' ";
riversident@Mark:1:4 @ just so John the Baptist appeared in the wilderness, preaching the baptism of a change of heart for forgiveness of sins.
riversident@Mark:1:5 @ All the land of Judaea and all the people of Jerusalem went out to him and were baptized by him in the Jordan river, confessing their sins.
riversident@Mark:1:6 @ John's clothes were of camel's hair and he had a leather belt around his waist, and he ate locusts and wild honey.
riversident@Mark:1:7 @ He proclaimed, "One is coming after me who is more powerful than I, the strap of whose sandals I am not worthy to stoop and loose.
riversident@Mark:1:8 @ I have baptized you with water, but he will baptize you with the Holy Spirit."
riversident@Mark:1:9 @ In those days Jesus came from Nazareth in Galilee, and was baptized by John in the Jordan.
riversident@Mark:1:10 @ Immediately as he was coming up from the water he saw the heavens opened and the Spirit as a dove descending upon him.
riversident@Mark:1:11 @ And there was a voice from the heavens, "Thou art my Son, my Beloved; in thee I am well pleased."
riversident@Mark:1:12 @ Immediately the spirit impelled him to go out into the wild lands.
riversident@Mark:1:13 @ And he was in the wild lands forty days, tempted by Satan. There he was among the wild beasts, but angels waited upon him.
riversident@Mark:1:14 @ After John had been betrayed, Jesus came into Galilee, proclaiming the good news of God
riversident@Mark:1:15 @ and saying,
riversident@Mark:1:16 @ As he passed along by the lake of Galilee, he saw Simon and his brother Andrew, casting a net into the lake, for they were fishermen.
riversident@Mark:1:17 @ Jesus said to them,
riversident@Mark:1:18 @ They immediately left their nets and followed him.
riversident@Mark:1:19 @ Going on a little farther, he saw James the son of Zebedee and his brother John in their boat, mending their net.
riversident@Mark:1:20 @ Immediately he called them. They left their father Zebedee in the boat with the hired men and followed him away.
riversident@Mark:1:21 @ They came into Capernaum. Immediately on the Sabbath he went into the synagogue and taught.
riversident@Mark:1:22 @ The people were astonished at his teaching, for he taught them as if he had authority, and not as the scribes.
riversident@Mark:1:23 @ There was in their synagogue a man wider the power of an impure spirit, and he immediately cried out,
riversident@Mark:1:24 @ "What have you to do with us, Nazarene Jesus? Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are \'97 the Holy one of God."
riversident@Mark:1:25 @ But Jesus reproved him and said,
riversident@Mark:1:26 @ Then the impure spirit convulsed him, and screamed loudly and came out.
riversident@Mark:1:27 @ They were all amazed so that they discussed together, "What is this? A new powerful teaching! He commands even the impure spirits and they obey him!"
riversident@Mark:1:28 @ So reports about him immediately spread everywhere through the whole region of Galilee.
riversident@Mark:1:29 @ As soon as they had come out of the synagogue, they entered the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John.
riversident@Mark:1:30 @ The mother-in-law of Simon was lying sick with fever. Immediately they told him about her.
riversident@Mark:1:31 @ He came to her, and took her by the hand and lifted her up. The fever left her and she waited on them.
riversident@Mark:1:32 @ When evening came and the sun had set, they brought to him all the sick and those who were afflicted with demons;
riversident@Mark:1:33 @ and the whole city was gathered before the door.
riversident@Mark:1:34 @ He healed many who were sick with various diseases, and cast out many demons, not allowing the demons to talk, because they knew him.
riversident@Mark:1:35 @ Early in the morning, while it was still night, he rose and went out, and went away into a solitary place and there prayed.
riversident@Mark:1:36 @ Simon and his companions searched for him,
riversident@Mark:1:37 @ and when they found him they said to him, "All are looking for you?
riversident@Mark:1:38 @ But he said to them,
riversident@Mark:1:39 @ And he went through all Galilee, preaching in their synagogues and casting out demons.
riversident@Mark:1:40 @ There came to him a leper, begging him and kneeling to him and saying, "If you will, you can cleanse me."
riversident@Mark:1:41 @ He had compassion on him, and stretched out his hand and touched him, and said,
riversident@Mark:1:42 @ Immediately the leprosy left him and he became clean.
riversident@Mark:1:43 @ Then Jesus sent him away after strictly charging him,
riversident@Mark:1:44" />
riversident@Mark:1:45 @ But the man went away and began to proclaim freely and to spread the report, so that Jesus was no longer able to enter openly into any city, but stayed out in the wild country, and people came to him from every direction.
riversident@Mark:2:1 @ HE came again into Capernaum, and after some days it was heard that he was in the house.
riversident@Mark:2:2 @ Many came together, so that there was no longer room even near the door, and he preached to them.
riversident@Mark:2:3 @ Then some people came bringing to him a paralytic, borne by four.
riversident@Mark:2:4 @ Not being able to bring him near, owing to the crowd, they opened the roof where he was, and when they had broken through it, they let down the pallet on which the paralytic was lying.
riversident@Mark:2:5 @ When Jesus saw their faith, he said to the paralytic,
riversident@Mark:2:6 @ There were some of the scribes sitting there and debating in their minds,
riversident@Mark:2:7 @ "Why does this man talk so? He speaks profane words. Who except God can forgive sins?"
riversident@Mark:2:8 @ Immediately Jesus, perceiving that they were inwardly reasoning in this way, said to them,
riversident@Mark:2:9" />
riversident@Mark:2:10 @ turning to the paralytic he said,
riversident@Mark:2:11" />
riversident@Mark:2:12 @ Immediately the man rose and took up his pallet and went out before all, so that they were astounded and gave praise to God, saying, "We have never seen anything like this!"
riversident@Mark:2:13 @ Jesus went out again beside the lake, and all the crowd came to him and he taught them.
riversident@Mark:2:14 @ As he was passing along, he saw Levi, the son of Alphaeus, sitting at the tax office and said to him, He arose and followed.
riversident@Mark:2:15 @ Jesus was reclining at table in Levi's house, and many tax collectors and sinners also reclined at table along with Jesus and his disciples, for there were many who followed him.
riversident@Mark:2:16 @ When the scribes and the Pharisees saw that he was eating with sinners and tax collectors, they said to his disciples, "Can it be that he eats with tax collectors and sinners?"
riversident@Mark:2:17 @ When Jesus heard it, he said to them,
riversident@Mark:2:18 @ The disciples of John as well as the Pharisees were fasting. They came and said to Jesus, "Why is it that the disciples of John and the disciples of the Pharisees are fasting, but your disciples are not fasting?"
riversident@Mark:2:19 @ Jesus replied,
riversident@Mark:2:20" />
riversident@Mark:2:21" />
riversident@Mark:2:22" />
riversident@Mark:2:23 @ It happened on a Sabbath day that he was passing through the grainfields, and his disciples began, as they walked, to pluck the heads of grain.
riversident@Mark:2:24 @ The Pharisees said to him, "See what they are doing on the Sabbath \'97 something that is not allowable."
riversident@Mark:2:25 @ He said to them,
riversident@Mark:2:26" />
riversident@Mark:2:27 @ He said to them,
riversident@Mark:2:28" />
riversident@Mark:3:1 @ HE went another time into the synagogue and there was present a man with a withered hand.
riversident@Mark:3:2 @ They watched him to see whether he would heal him on the Sabbath, so that they might have something to say against him.
riversident@Mark:3:3 @ He said to the man with the withered hand,
riversident@Mark:3:4 @ Then he said to them, But they kept silent.
riversident@Mark:3:5 @ He looked round on them with anger, grieved at the hardness of their hearts, and said to the man, He stretched the hand out and it was completely restored.
riversident@Mark:3:6 @ The Pharisees went out immediately and joined with the Herodians in a plot to put him out of the way.
riversident@Mark:3:7 @ Then Jesus withdrew with his disciples to the lake and a great number from Galilee followed him. Also from Judaea
riversident@Mark:3:8 @ and from Jerusalem and from Idumaea and from beyond the Jordan and from the neighborhood of Tyre and Sidon, a great number, hearing of all that he was doing, came to him.
riversident@Mark:3:9 @ Jesus spoke to his disciples to have a little boat ready for his use on account of the throng, to prevent them from pressing upon him.
riversident@Mark:3:10 @ For he healed many, so that all that had diseases crowded around him to touch him.
riversident@Mark:3:11 @ The impure spirits, also, when they saw him, fell down before him and shouted, "You are the Son of God."
riversident@Mark:3:12 @ But he ordered them repeatedly and sternly not to make him known.
riversident@Mark:3:13 @ Jesus went up on the mountain and invited whom he chose, and they came to him.
riversident@Mark:3:14 @ He appointed twelve who should be with him and whom he could send out to preach
riversident@Mark:3:15 @ and to have authority to cast out demons.
riversident@Mark:3:16 @ He appointed these twelve: Simon, to whom he gave the name Peter (note:)Rock(:note),
riversident@Mark:3:17 @ James the son of Zebedee and John his brother, to whom he gave the name Boanerges, which means Sons of Thunder,
riversident@Mark:3:18 @ Andrew, Philip, Bartholomew, Matthew, Thomas, James the son of Alphaeus, Thaddeus, Simon the Zealot,
riversident@Mark:3:19 @ and Judas Iscariot, who betrayed him. Jesus came into a house
riversident@Mark:3:20 @ and the crowd gathered again so that they were not able even to eat bread.
riversident@Mark:3:21 @ When his family heard of it, they went out to take him by force, for they said, "He is out of his mind."
riversident@Mark:3:22 @ The scribes who had come down from Jerusalem were saying, "He has Beelzebul in him, and by the Chief of the demons he casts out demons."
riversident@Mark:3:23 @ Jesus called them to him and said to them in figures:
riversident@Mark:3:24" />
riversident@Mark:3:25" />
riversident@Mark:3:26" />
riversident@Mark:3:27" />
riversident@Mark:3:28" />
riversident@Mark:3:29" />
riversident@Mark:3:30 @ This he said because they said, "He has an impure spirit."
riversident@Mark:3:31 @ Then came his mother and his brothers, and standing outside sent and called him out.
riversident@Mark:3:32 @ A crowd was sitting around him when some one said to him, "Your mother and your brothers and sisters are outside and want you."
riversident@Mark:3:33 @ But he answered,
riversident@Mark:3:34 @ Looking round at those sitting in the circle about him he said,
riversident@Mark:3:35" />
riversident@Mark:4:1 @ AGAIN Jesus began to teach beside the lake, and a very great crowd gathered around him, so that he got into a boat on the lake and sat down, and all the crowd was on the shore near the lake.
riversident@Mark:4:2 @ He taught them many things by figures of speech. He said to them in his teaching,
riversident@Mark:4:3" />
riversident@Mark:4:4" />
riversident@Mark:4:5" />
riversident@Mark:4:6" />
riversident@Mark:4:7" />
riversident@Mark:4:8" />
riversident@Mark:4:9 @ He said to them,
riversident@Mark:4:10 @ When he was alone, his close friends and the twelve asked him about the illustrations.
riversident@Mark:4:11 @ He replied,
riversident@Mark:4:12" />
riversident@Mark:4:13 @ He said to them,
riversident@Mark:4:14" />
riversident@Mark:4:15" />
riversident@Mark:4:16" />
riversident@Mark:4:17" />
riversident@Mark:4:18" />
riversident@Mark:4:19" />
riversident@Mark:4:20" />
riversident@Mark:4:21 @ He said to them,
riversident@Mark:4:22" />
riversident@Mark:4:23" />
riversident@Mark:4:24 @ He said again to them,
riversident@Mark:4:25" />
riversident@Mark:4:26 @ He said again,
riversident@Mark:4:27" />
riversident@Mark:4:28" />
riversident@Mark:4:29" />
riversident@Mark:4:30 @ Again he said,
riversident@Mark:4:31" />
riversident@Mark:4:32" />
riversident@Mark:4:33 @ With many such illustrations he went on talking to them as they were able to listen;
riversident@Mark:4:34 @ but except in figures of speech he did not talk to them. Privately to his own disciples he explained all things.
riversident@Mark:4:35 @ On that day when evening came he said to them,
riversident@Mark:4:36 @ So they left the crowd and took him along just as he was, in the boat. There were also other boats with them.
riversident@Mark:4:37 @ Then a heavy squall of wind came up and the waves beat into the boat so that it was filling.
riversident@Mark:4:38 @ But he was in the stern asleep on the cushion. They aroused him and said to him, "Teacher, do you not care that we are sinking?"
riversident@Mark:4:39 @ When he awoke, he rebuked the wind and said to the sea, The wind ceased and there was a great calm.
riversident@Mark:4:40 @ Then he asked them,
riversident@Mark:4:41 @ But they were intensely awestruck and said to one another, "Who, then, is this, that even the wind and the lake obey him?"
riversident@Mark:5:1 @ THEY came to the other side of the lake, to the land of the Gerasenes.
riversident@Mark:5:2 @ When he got out of the boat, immediately there came out of the tombs to meet him a man under the power of an impure spirit.
riversident@Mark:5:3 @ This man made his dwelling in the tombs, and nobody could bind him even with a chain,
riversident@Mark:5:4 @ because he had often been bound with fetters and chains, and the chains had been torn apart and the fetters broken in pieces by him, and no one was strong enough to tame him.
riversident@Mark:5:5 @ All night and all day long he was in the tombs and in the mountains, shrieking and cutting himself with stones.
riversident@Mark:5:6 @ When he saw Jesus a long way off, he ran and knelt to him
riversident@Mark:5:7 @ and shouted with a loud voice, "What have I and you to do with each other, Jesus, Son of God most high? I adjure you by God, not to torment me."
riversident@Mark:5:8 @ For Jesus had said to him,
riversident@Mark:5:9 @ Jesus asked him, He replied, "Legion is my name, for we are many."
riversident@Mark:5:10 @ Then he begged Jesus earnestly not to send them out of the country.
riversident@Mark:5:11 @ There was on the mountain-side a great herd of swine feeding,
riversident@Mark:5:12 @ and the demons begged him, "Send us to the swine and let us go into them."
riversident@Mark:5:13 @ He consented. The impure spirits came out of the man and entered into the swine. Then the herd, numbering about two thousand, rushed down the steep bank into the lake and were drowned in the lake.
riversident@Mark:5:14 @ At this, those who were feeding them fled and told it in the city and in the fields, and people came to see what had happened.
riversident@Mark:5:15 @ When they came to Jesus, they saw the demoniac, the man who had had the legion, sitting there clothed and in his right mind. They were struck with awe.
riversident@Mark:5:16 @ Those who had seen it told them about what had happened to the demoniac and about the swine.
riversident@Mark:5:17 @ Then they began to beg him to go away from their neighborhood.
riversident@Mark:5:18 @ As Jesus was entering the boat, the man who had been demoniac begged him to let him stay with him.
riversident@Mark:5:19 @ He, however, did not consent, but said,
riversident@Mark:5:20 @ So he went away and began to make known in Decapolis what great things Jesus had done for him; and all were astonished.
riversident@Mark:5:21 @ When Jesus had recrossed in the boat to the other side of the lake, a great crowd gathered around him as he stood on the shore.
riversident@Mark:5:22 @ Then came one of the directors of the synagogue, by the name of Jairus, and as soon as he saw Jesus he fell at his feet
riversident@Mark:5:23 @ and pleaded with him earnestly, saying, "My little daughter is near to death. I beg you to come and lay your hands on her so that she may be saved and live."
riversident@Mark:5:24 @ Jesus went away with him and a great crowd followed and pressed upon him.
riversident@Mark:5:25 @ There was a woman who had for twelve years had a hemorrhage
riversident@Mark:5:26 @ and had suffered much under the treatment of many physicians, and had spent all that she had, though without becoming better, but rather worse;
riversident@Mark:5:27 @ this woman had heard about Jesus, and she came in the crowd behind him and touched his cloak,
riversident@Mark:5:28 @ for she said, "If I can touch even his clothes, I shall be healed."
riversident@Mark:5:29 @ Immediately the hemorrhage ceased and she knew in her body that she was healed of her affliction.
riversident@Mark:5:30 @ Jesus was at once conscious that power had gone from him, and turned in the crowd and said,
riversident@Mark:5:31 @ His disciples replied, "You see the people crowding you, and do you ask,
riversident@Mark:5:32 @ But he looked around to see who had done it.
riversident@Mark:5:33 @ Then the woman, afraid and trembling, knowing what had happened to her, came and fell before him and told him all the truth.
riversident@Mark:5:34 @ He said to her,
riversident@Mark:5:35 @ While he was still speaking, people came from the house of the synagogue Director and told him, "Your daughter is dead; why annoy the teacher any longer?"
riversident@Mark:5:36 @ But Jesus, overhearing what they were saying, said to the Director,
riversident@Mark:5:37 @ He did not permit any one to accompany him except Peter and James and John, the brother of James.
riversident@Mark:5:38 @ When they approached the Director's house, they saw a noisy crowd weeping loudly and wailing.
riversident@Mark:5:39 @ He entered and said,
riversident@Mark:5:40 @ But they laughed at him. Then he put them all out and took the child's father and mother and his own companions and went in where the child was.
riversident@Mark:5:41 @ Taking hold of the child's hand he said to her, which means,
riversident@Mark:5:42 @ Immediately the little girl rose up and walked around. She was twelve years old. They were utterly amazed.
riversident@Mark:5:43 @ But he strictly ordered that no one should know it, and told them to give her something to eat.
riversident@Mark:6:1 @ LEAVING there, he came to his own native place accompanied by his disciples.
riversident@Mark:6:2 @ When the Sabbath came, he began teaching in the synagogue. Many who heard were astonished and said, "Where did he get this, and what is this wisdom with which he is gifted? How are such deeds of power done by his hands?
riversident@Mark:6:3 @ Is not this the carpenter, the son of Mary and brother of James and Joseph and Judas and Simon? And are not his sisters here with us?" So they fell into mistake regarding him.
riversident@Mark:6:4 @ But Jesus said to them,
riversident@Mark:6:5 @ There he was unable to do any work of power, except that he laid his hands on a few sick people and healed them.
riversident@Mark:6:6 @ Their lack of faith astonished him. He made a circuit through the villages, teaching.
riversident@Mark:6:7 @ Then he called together the twelve and began to send them out two by two, and gave them authority over impure spirits,
riversident@Mark:6:8 @ and instructed them not to take anything for their journey but just a stick; no bread, no bag, no coppers in their belts,
riversident@Mark:6:9 @ to be shod with sandals, and not to have two tunics.
riversident@Mark:6:10 @ He said to them,
riversident@Mark:6:11" />
riversident@Mark:6:12 @ They went out and proclaimed that men should repent,
riversident@Mark:6:13 @ and they cast out many demons and anointed with oil many sick people and healed them.
riversident@Mark:6:14 @ The name of Jesus was so much talked about that King Herod heard of it. Some were saying, "John the Baptizer has risen from the dead, and therefore these mighty works are done by him."
riversident@Mark:6:15 @ Others said, "It is Elijah," and others said, "It is a prophet like one of the old prophets."
riversident@Mark:6:16 @ But Herod, when he heard about him, said, "John, the man whom I beheaded, has risen again."
riversident@Mark:6:17 @ Herod himself had sent and arrested John and bound him in prison for the sake of Herodias, his brother Philip's wife, whom he had married.
riversident@Mark:6:18 @ For John had said to Herod, "It is not right for you to have your brother's wife."
riversident@Mark:6:19 @ Herodias hated him and wished to kill him, but was unable to do so,
riversident@Mark:6:20 @ because Herod reverenced John, knowing that he was a righteous and holy man, and he protected him. When Herod heard John, he was much perplexed, and yet he was glad to listen to him.
riversident@Mark:6:21 @ But an opportunity came for Herodias when Herod, on his birthday, gave a feast to his high officials and military officers and the leading men of Galilee.
riversident@Mark:6:22 @ Then the daughter of Herodias came in and danced and pleased Herod and his guests. The King said to the girl, "Ask me for whatever you will and I will give it to you."
riversident@Mark:6:23 @ He swore, "Whatever you ask I will give you, up to the half of my kingdom."
riversident@Mark:6:24 @ The girl went out and said to her mother, "What shall I ask?" She replied, "The head of John the Baptizer."
riversident@Mark:6:25 @ The girl immediately hurried in and said to the King, "I choose to have you give me right now the head of John the Baptizer on a platter."
riversident@Mark:6:26 @ This made the King very sorry, but on account of his oaths and his guests he was unwilling to refuse her.
riversident@Mark:6:27 @ So he immediately sent one of the guardsmen with orders to bring John's head. The soldier went and beheaded him in the prison
riversident@Mark:6:28 @ and brought the head on a platter and gave it to the girl, and she gave it to her mother.
riversident@Mark:6:29 @ When John's disciples heard about it, they came and took the body and laid it in a tomb.
riversident@Mark:6:30 @ The apostles gathered back to Jesus and reported to him all that they had done and all that they had taught.
riversident@Mark:6:31 @ He said to them, For there were many people coming and going, and they had no time even to eat.
riversident@Mark:6:32 @ So they put off in a boat for an uninhabited, solitary place.
riversident@Mark:6:33 @ But many saw them going and recognized them, and ran together by land from all the towns and got there before them.
riversident@Mark:6:34 @ When Jesus landed, he saw a great crowd, and he was filled with compassion for them because they were like sheep without a shepherd, and he began and taught them many things.
riversident@Mark:6:35 @ By this time it was late in the day, and his disciples came to him and said, "This is an uninhabited place and the hour is already late.
riversident@Mark:6:36 @ Send them away so that they can go to the farms and villages around and buy themselves something to eat."
riversident@Mark:6:37 @ But Jesus answered, They said, "Shall we go and buy two hundred shillings worth of bread and feed them?"
riversident@Mark:6:38 @ He asked, When they had ascertained they said, "Five, and there are two fishes."
riversident@Mark:6:39 @ Then he told them to have all the people recline in groups on the green grass.
riversident@Mark:6:40 @ They lay down in rows by hundreds and by fifties.
riversident@Mark:6:41 @ Then he took the five loaves and the two fishes, and looked up to heaven and blessed them, and broke them and gave them to the disciples to distribute to the people. The two fishes he also divided among all.
riversident@Mark:6:42 @ All ate and had abundance,
riversident@Mark:6:43 @ and they picked up twelve basketfuls of the broken pieces of the bread, besides portions of the fishes.
riversident@Mark:6:44 @ There were five thousand men who ate of the loaves.
riversident@Mark:6:45 @ Jesus immediately had his disciples get into the boat and cross before him to Bethsaida while he was dismissing the crowd.
riversident@Mark:6:46 @ After taking leave of them, he went away up the mountain to pray.
riversident@Mark:6:47 @ When evening had fallen, the boat was half across the lake and he was alone on the land.
riversident@Mark:6:48 @ He saw them distressed in rowing, for the wind was against them. About the fourth watch of the night, he came to them walking on the lake and he seemed to be going past them.
riversident@Mark:6:49 @ But when they saw him walking on the lake, they thought that it was a ghost and cried out.
riversident@Mark:6:50 @ For they all saw him and were frightened. But he immediately spoke to them and said,
riversident@Mark:6:51 @ Then he got into the boat with them and the wind dropped. They were in boundless amazement;
riversident@Mark:6:52 @ for they had not grasped the miracle of the loaves because their minds were dull.
riversident@Mark:6:53 @ When they had crossed to the land they came to Gennesaret and dropped anchor.
riversident@Mark:6:54 @ As soon as they got out of the boat, the people recognized Jesus
riversident@Mark:6:55 @ and hurried over all that region and brought in the sick on pallets wherever they heard that he was.
riversident@Mark:6:56 @ Whenever he went into villages or towns or among the farms they would lay the sick in the streets and beg him to let them touch at least the tassel of his cloak. And all who touched were healed.
riversident@Mark:7:1 @ ONCE the Pharisees gathered about him with some of the scribes who had come from Jerusalem,
riversident@Mark:7:2 @ and they saw that some of his disciples were eating bread with "common," that is, unwashed, hands.
riversident@Mark:7:3 @ For the Pharisees and all the Jews never eat without first washing their hands up to the wrist, holding faithfully to the tradition of their forefathers,
riversident@Mark:7:4 @ and when they return from market they do not eat until they have washed. There are also many other traditions which they have been taught to hold tenaciously, such as washing cups and pitchers and copper vessels.
riversident@Mark:7:5 @ The Pharisees and scribes asked him, "Why do not your disciples live according to the tradition of our fore-fathers? Why do they eat their bread with common hands?"
riversident@Mark:7:6 @ He replied,
riversident@Mark:7:7" />
riversident@Mark:7:8" />

riversident@Mark:7:24 @ Leaving that place, Jesus went into the borders of Tyre. He entered a house and did not wish any one to know it, but he could not escape notice.
riversident@Mark:7:25 @ At once a woman whose daughter was afflicted by an impure spirit heard about him, and she came and fell at his feet.
