Carrying His own cross, He went out to The Place of the Skull, which in Hebrew is called Golgotha.

When the soldiers had crucified Jesus, they divided His garments into four parts, one for each soldier, with the tunic remaining. It was seamless, woven in one piece from top to bottom.

Near the cross of Jesus stood His mother and her sister, as well as Mary the wife of Clopas and Mary Magdalene.

When Jesus saw His mother and the disciple whom He loved standing nearby, He said to His mother, “Woman, here is your son.”

Then He said to the disciple, “Here is your mother.” So from that hour, this disciple took her into his home.

A jar of sour wine was sitting there. So they soaked a sponge in the wine, put it on a stalk of hyssop, and lifted it to His mouth.

When Jesus had received the sour wine, He said, “It is finished.” And bowing His head, He yielded up His spirit.

But when they came to Jesus and saw that He was already dead, they did not break His legs.

Instead, one of the soldiers pierced His side with a spear, and immediately blood and water flowed out.

The one who saw it has testified to this, and his testimony is true. He knows that he is telling the truth, so that you also may believe.

Now these things happened so that the Scripture would be fulfilled: “Not one of His bones will be broken.”

Afterward, Joseph of Arimathea, who was a disciple of Jesus (but secretly for fear of the Jews), asked Pilate to let him remove the body of Jesus. Pilate gave him permission, so he came and removed His body.

Eight days later, His disciples were once again inside with the doors locked, and Thomas was with them. Jesus came and stood among them and said, “Peace be with you.”

Jesus performed many other signs in the presence of His disciples, which are not written in this book.

But these are written so that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in His name.

Then the disciple whom Jesus loved said to Peter, “It is the Lord!” As soon as Simon Peter heard that it was the Lord, he put on his outer garment (for he had removed it) and jumped into the sea.

This is the disciple who testifies to these things and who has written them down. And we know that his testimony is true.

After His suffering, He presented Himself to them with many convincing proofs that He was alive. He appeared to them over a span of forty days and spoke about the kingdom of God.

…beginning from John’s baptism until the day Jesus was taken up from us. For one of these must become a witness with us of His resurrection.”

…to take up this ministry and apostleship, which Judas abandoned to go to his rightful place.”

And when this sound rang out, a crowd came together in bewilderment, because each one heard them speaking his own language.

How is it then that each of us hears them in his own native language?

Then Peter stood up with the Eleven, lifted up his voice, and addressed the crowd: “Men of Judea and all who dwell in Jerusalem, let this be known to you, and listen carefully to my words.

Brothers, I can tell you with confidence that the patriarch David died and was buried, and his tomb is with us to this day.

But he was a prophet and knew that God had promised him on oath that He would place one of his descendants on his throne.

But he was a prophet and knew that God had promised him on oath that He would place one of his descendants on his throne.

Foreseeing this, David spoke about the resurrection of the Christ, that He was not abandoned to Hades, nor did His body see decay.

Those who embraced his message were baptized, and about three thousand were added to the believers that day.

So the man gave them his attention, expecting to receive something from them.

He sprang to his feet and began to walk. Then he went with them into the temple courts, walking and leaping and praising God.

The God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, the God of our fathers, has glorified His servant Jesus. You handed Him over and rejected Him before Pilate, even though he had decided to release Him.

But in this way God has fulfilled what He foretold through all the prophets, saying that His Christ would suffer.

Heaven must take Him in until the time comes for the restoration of all things, which God announced long ago through His holy prophets.

Everyone who does not listen to Him will be completely cut off from among his people.’

When God raised up His Servant, He sent Him first to you to bless you by turning each of you from your wicked ways.”

The kings of the earth take their stand and the rulers gather together against the Lord and against His Anointed One.’

The multitude of believers was one in heart and soul. No one claimed that any of his possessions was his own, but they shared everything they owned.

Now a man named Ananias, together with his wife Sapphira, also sold a piece of property.

With his wife’s full knowledge, he kept back some of the proceeds for himself, but brought a portion and laid it at the apostles’ feet.

Then the young men stepped forward, wrapped up his body, and carried him out and buried him.

About three hours later his wife also came in, unaware of what had happened.

At that instant she fell down at his feet and died. Then the young men came in and, finding her dead, carried her out and buried her beside her husband.

Then the high priest and all his associates, who belonged to the party of the Sadducees, were filled with jealousy. They went out

At daybreak the apostles entered the temple courts as they had been told and began to teach the people. When the high priest and his associates arrived, they convened the Sanhedrin—the full assembly of the elders of Israel—and sent to the jail for the apostles.

God exalted Him to His right hand as Prince and Savior, in order to grant repentance and forgiveness of sins to Israel.

Some time ago Theudas rose up, claiming to be somebody, and about four hundred men joined him. He was killed, all his followers were dispersed, and it all came to nothing.

After him, Judas the Galilean appeared in the days of the census and drew away people after him. He too perished, and all his followers were scattered.

…but they could not stand up to his wisdom or the Spirit by whom he spoke.

All who were sitting in the Sanhedrin looked intently at Stephen, and they saw that his face was like the face of an angel.

So Abraham left the land of the Chaldeans and settled in Haran. After his father died, God brought him out of that place and into this land where you are now living.

He gave him no inheritance here, not even a foot of ground. But God promised to give possession of the land to Abraham and his descendants, even though he did not yet have a child.

God told him that his descendants would be foreigners in a strange land, and that they would be enslaved and mistreated four hundred years.

…and rescued him from all his troubles. He granted Joseph favor and wisdom in the sight of Pharaoh king of Egypt, who appointed him ruler over Egypt and all his household.

As the time drew near for God to fulfill His promise to Abraham, our people in Egypt increased greatly in number.

At that time Moses was born, and he was beautiful in the sight of God. For three months he was nurtured in his father’s house.

When Moses was forty years old, he decided to visit his brothers, the children of Israel.

And when he saw one of them being mistreated, Moses went to his defense and avenged him by striking down the Egyptian who was oppressing him.

He assumed his brothers would understand that God was using him to deliver them, but they did not.

But the man who was abusing his neighbor pushed Moses aside and said, ‘Who made you ruler and judge over us?

Which of the prophets did your fathers fail to persecute? They even killed those who foretold the coming of the Righteous One. And now you are His betrayers and murderers—

Falling on his knees, he cried out in a loud voice, “Lord, do not hold this sin against them.” And when he had said this, he fell asleep.

…and all the people, from the least to the greatest, heeded his words and said, “This man is the divine power called the Great Power.”

They paid close attention to him because he had astounded them for a long time with his sorcery.

So he started out, and on his way he met an Ethiopian eunuch, a court official in charge of the entire treasury of Candace, queen of the Ethiopians. He had gone to Jerusalem to worship,

…and on his return was sitting in his chariot reading Isaiah the prophet.

…and on his return was sitting in his chariot reading Isaiah the prophet.

The eunuch was reading this passage of Scripture: “He was led like a sheep to the slaughter, and as a lamb before the shearer is silent, so He did not open His mouth.

In His humiliation He was deprived of justice. Who can recount His descendants? For His life was removed from the earth.”

When they came up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord carried Philip away, and the eunuch saw him no more, but went on his way rejoicing.

As Saul drew near to Damascus on his journey, suddenly a light from heaven flashed around him.

Saul got up from the ground, but when he opened his eyes he could not see a thing. So they led him by the hand into Damascus.

In a vision he has seen a man named Ananias come and place his hands on him to restore his sight.”

In a vision he has seen a man named Ananias come and place his hands on him to restore his sight.”

So Ananias went to the house, and when he arrived, he placed his hands on Saul. “Brother Saul,” he said, “the Lord Jesus, who appeared to you on the road as you were coming here, has sent me so that you may see again and be filled with the Holy Spirit.”

At that instant, something like scales fell from Saul’s eyes, and his sight was restored. He got up and was baptized,

…and after taking some food, he regained his strength. And he spent several days with the disciples in Damascus.

One night, however, his disciples took him and lowered him in a basket through a window in the wall.

So Peter got up and went with them. On his arrival, they took him to the upper room. All the widows stood around him, weeping and showing him the tunics and other clothing that Dorcas had made while she was still with them.
