Then Jesus took the Twelve aside and said to them, “Look, we are going up to Jerusalem, and everything the prophets have written about the Son of Man will be fulfilled.

But the disciples did not understand any of these things. The meaning was hidden from them, and they did not comprehend what He was saying.

While the people were listening to this, Jesus proceeded to tell them a parable, because He was near Jerusalem and they thought the kingdom of God would appear imminently.

Beforehand, he called ten of his servants and gave them ten minas. ‘Conduct business with this until I return,’ he said.

And these enemies of mine who were unwilling for me to rule over them, bring them here and slay them in front of me.’”

And these enemies of mine who were unwilling for me to rule over them, bring them here and slay them in front of me.’”

And these enemies of mine who were unwilling for me to rule over them, bring them here and slay them in front of me.’”

So those who were sent went out and found it just as Jesus had told them.

He declared to them, “It is written: ‘My house will be a house of prayer.’ But you have made it ‘a den of robbers.’”

So they threw him out of the vineyard and killed him. What then will the owner of the vineyard do to them?

But Jesus looked directly at them and said, “Then what is the meaning of that which is written: ‘The stone the builders rejected has become the cornerstone’?

When the scribes and chief priests realized that Jesus had spoken this parable against them, they sought to arrest Him that very hour. But they were afraid of the people.

But Jesus saw through their duplicity and said to them,

So Jesus told them, “Give to Caesar what is Caesar’s, and to God what is God’s.”

Jesus answered, “See to it that you are not deceived. For many will come in My name, claiming, ‘I am He,’ and, ‘The time is near.’ Do not follow them.

Then He told them, “Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom.

Then Jesus told them a parable: “Look at the fig tree and all the trees.

And Judas went to discuss with the chief priests and temple officers how he might betray Jesus to them.

Judas consented, and began to look for an opportunity to betray Jesus to them in the absence of a crowd.

So they went and found it just as Jesus had told them. And they prepared the Passover.

And He said to them, “I have eagerly desired to eat this Passover with you before My suffering.

And He took the bread, gave thanks and broke it, and gave it to them, saying, “This is My body, given for you; do this in remembrance of Me.”

Then they began to question among themselves which of them was going to do this.

A dispute also arose among the disciples as to which of them should be considered the greatest.

So Jesus declared, “The kings of the Gentiles lord it over them, and those in authority over them call themselves benefactors.

So Jesus declared, “The kings of the Gentiles lord it over them, and those in authority over them call themselves benefactors.

But you shall not be like them. Instead, the greatest among you should be like the youngest, and the one who leads like the one who serves.

Then Jesus asked them, “When I sent you out without purse or bag or sandals, did you lack anything?” “Nothing,” they answered.

“Now, however,” He told them, “the one with a purse should take it, and likewise a bag; and the one without a sword should sell his cloak and buy one.

When He came to the place, He told them, “Pray that you will not enter into temptation.”

And He withdrew about a stone’s throw beyond them, where He knelt down and prayed,

When Jesus rose from prayer and returned to the disciples, He found them asleep, exhausted from sorrow.

And one of them struck the servant of the high priest, cutting off his right ear.

When those present had kindled a fire in the middle of the courtyard and sat down together, Peter sat down among them.

A short time later, someone else saw him and said, “You also are one of them.” But Peter said, “Man, I am not.”

…and said to them, “You brought me this man as one who was inciting the people to rebellion. I have examined Him here in your presence and found Him not guilty of your charges against Him.

Wanting to release Jesus, Pilate addressed them again,

A third time he said to them, “What evil has this man done? I have found in Him no offense worthy of death. So after I punish Him, I will release Him.”

But Jesus turned to them and said, “Daughters of Jerusalem, do not weep for Me, but weep for yourselves and for your children.

Then Jesus said, “Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing.” And they divided up His garments by casting lots.

While they were puzzling over this, suddenly two men in radiant apparel stood beside them.

As the women bowed their faces to the ground in terror, the two men asked them, “Why do you look for the living among the dead?

It was Mary Magdalene, Joanna, Mary the mother of James, and the other women with them who told this to the apostles.

But their words seemed like nonsense to them, and they did not believe the women.

That same day two of them were going to a village called Emmaus, about seven miles from Jerusalem.

And as they talked and deliberated, Jesus Himself came up and walked along with them.

He asked them, “What are you discussing so intently as you walk along?” They stood still, with sadness on their faces.

One of them, named Cleopas, asked Him, “Are You the only visitor to Jerusalem who does not know the things that have happened there in recent days?”

Then Jesus said to them, “O foolish ones, and slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken!

And beginning with Moses and all the Prophets, He explained to them what was written in all the Scriptures about Himself.

But they pleaded with Him, “Stay with us, for it is nearly evening and the day is almost over.” So He went in to stay with them.

While He was reclining at the table with them, He took bread, spoke a blessing and broke it, and gave it to them.

While He was reclining at the table with them, He took bread, spoke a blessing and broke it, and gave it to them.

And they got up that very hour and returned to Jerusalem. There they found the Eleven and those with them, gathered together

While they were describing these events, Jesus Himself stood among them and said, “Peace be with you.”

And when He had said this, He showed them His hands and feet.

While they were still in disbelief because of their joy and amazement, He asked them, “Do you have anything here to eat?”

…and He took it and ate it in front of them.

Jesus said to them, “These are the words I spoke to you while I was still with you: Everything must be fulfilled that is written about Me in the Law of Moses, the Prophets, and the Psalms.”

And He told them, “This is what is written: The Christ will suffer and rise from the dead on the third day,

While He was blessing them, He left them and was carried up into heaven.

Jesus turned and saw them following. “What do you want?” He asked. They said to Him, “Rabbi” (which means Teacher), “where are You staying?”

Jesus told the servants, “Fill the jars with water.” So they filled them to the brim.

But Jesus did not entrust Himself to them, for He knew them all.

But Jesus did not entrust Himself to them, for He knew them all.

After this, Jesus and His disciples went into the Judean countryside, where He spent some time with them and baptized.

But He told them, “I have food to eat that you know nothing about.”

So when the Samaritans came to Him, they asked Him to stay with them, and He stayed two days.

But Jesus answered them, “To this very day My Father is at His work, and I too am working.”

For just as the Father raises the dead and gives them life, so also the Son gives life to whom He wishes.

You pore over the Scriptures because you presume that by them you possess eternal life. These are the very words that testify about Me,

Philip answered, “Two hundred denarii would not buy enough bread for each of them to have a small piece.”

“Have the people sit down,” Jesus said. Now there was plenty of grass in that place, so the men sat down, about five thousand of them.

So they collected them and filled twelve baskets with the pieces of the five barley loaves left over by those who had eaten.

…got into a boat, and started across the sea to Capernaum. It was already dark, and Jesus had not yet gone out to them.

Our fathers ate the manna in the wilderness, as it is written: ‘He gave them bread from heaven to eat.’”

Jesus said to them, “Truly, truly, I tell you, it was not Moses who gave you the bread from heaven, but it is My Father who gives you the true bread from heaven.

And this is the will of Him who sent Me, that I shall lose none of those He has given Me, but raise them up at the last day.

So Jesus said to them, “Truly, truly, I tell you, unless you eat the flesh and drink the blood of the Son of Man, you have no life in you.

Aware that His disciples were grumbling about this teaching, Jesus asked them, “Does this offend you?

However, there are some of you who do not believe.” (For Jesus had known from the beginning which of them did not believe and who would betray Him.)

Jesus answered them, “Have I not chosen you, the Twelve? Yet one of you is a devil!”

Therefore Jesus told them, “Although your time is always at hand, My time has not yet come.

Jesus answered them, “I did one miracle, and you are all amazed.

Some of them wanted to seize Him, but no one laid a hand on Him.

Then the officers returned to the chief priests and Pharisees, who asked them, “Why didn’t you bring Him in?”

When they continued to question Him, He straightened up and said to them, “Let him who is without sin among you be the first to cast a stone at her.”

Again He said to them, “I am going away, and you will look for Me, but you will die in your sin. Where I am going, you cannot come.”

Then He told them, “You are from below; I am from above. You are of this world; I am not of this world.

They did not understand that He was telling them about the Father.

Jesus said to them, “If God were your Father, you would love Me, for I have come here from God. I have not come on My own, but He sent Me.

Because of this, some of the Pharisees said, “This man is not from God, for He does not keep the Sabbath.” But others said, “How can a sinful man perform such signs?” And there was division among them.

The gatekeeper opens the gate for him, and the sheep listen for his voice. He calls his own sheep by name and leads them out.

When he has brought out all his own, he goes on ahead of them, and his sheep follow him because they know his voice.
