And immediately the man got up, picked up his mat, and walked out in front of them all. As a result, they were all astounded and glorified God, saying, “We have never seen anything like this!”

On hearing this, Jesus told them, “It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick. I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners.”

At this, the Pharisees went out and began plotting with the Herodians how they might kill Jesus.

When His family heard about this, they went out to take custody of Him, saying, “He is out of His mind.”

Jesus made this statement because they were saying, “He has an unclean spirit.”

Then Jesus said to them, “Do you not understand this parable? Then how will you understand any of the parables?

…but the worries of this life, the deceitfulness of wealth, and the desire for other things come in and choke the word, and it becomes unfruitful.

Overwhelmed with fear, they asked one another, “Who is this, that even the wind and the sea obey Him?”

This man had been living in the tombs and could no longer be restrained, even with chains.

For Jesus had already declared, “Come out of this man, you unclean spirit!”

Those tending the pigs ran off and reported this in the town and countryside, and the people went out to see what had happened.

But He kept looking around to see who had done this.

He went inside and asked, “Why all this commotion and weeping? The child is not dead, but asleep.”

Then Jesus gave strict orders that no one should know about this, and He told them to give her something to eat.

When the Sabbath came, He began to teach in the synagogue, and many who heard Him were astonished. “Where did this man get these ideas?” they asked. “What is this wisdom He has been given? And how can He perform such miracles?

When the Sabbath came, He began to teach in the synagogue, and many who heard Him were astonished. “Where did this man get these ideas?” they asked. “What is this wisdom He has been given? And how can He perform such miracles?

Isn’t this the carpenter, the son of Mary and the brother of James, Joses, Judas, and Simon? Aren’t His sisters here with us as well?” And they took offense at Him.

Now King Herod heard about this, for Jesus’ name had become well known, and people were saying, “John the Baptist has risen from the dead! That is why miraculous powers are at work in him.”

But when Herod heard this, he said, “John, whom I beheaded, has risen from the dead!”

When John’s disciples heard about this, they came and took his body and placed it in a tomb.

By now the hour was already late. So the disciples came to Jesus and said, “This is a desolate place, and the hour is already late.

Then Jesus told her, “Because of this answer, you may go. The demon has left your daughter.”

“I have compassion for this crowd, because they have already been with Me three days and have nothing to eat.

His disciples replied, “Where in this desolate place could anyone find enough bread to feed all these people?”

Jesus sighed deeply in His spirit and said, “Why does this generation demand a sign? Truly I tell you, no sign will be given to this generation.”

Jesus sighed deeply in His spirit and said, “Why does this generation demand a sign? Truly I tell you, no sign will be given to this generation.”

He spoke this message quite frankly, and Peter took Him aside and began to rebuke Him.

If anyone is ashamed of Me and My words in this adulterous and sinful generation, the Son of Man will also be ashamed of him when He comes in His Father’s glory with the holy angels.”

Then a cloud appeared and enveloped them, and a voice came from the cloud: “This is My beloved Son. Listen to Him!”

So they kept this matter to themselves, discussing what it meant to rise from the dead.

Jesus asked the boy’s father, “How long has this been with him?” “From childhood,” he said.

Jesus answered, “This kind cannot come out, except by prayer.”

But they did not understand this statement, and they were afraid to ask Him about it.

But Jesus told them, “Moses wrote this commandment for you because of your hardness of heart.

‘For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife,

When they were back inside the house, the disciples asked Jesus about this matter.

But when Jesus saw this, He was indignant and told them, “Let the little children come to Me, and do not hinder them! For the kingdom of God belongs to such as these.

Jesus looked at them and said, “With man this is impossible, but not with God. For all things are possible with God.”

When the ten heard about this, they became indignant with James and John.

But it shall not be this way among you. Instead, whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant,

If anyone asks, ‘Why are you doing this?’ tell him, ‘The Lord needs it and will return it shortly.’”

Then He said to the tree, “May no one ever eat of your fruit again.” And His disciples heard this statement.

When the chief priests and scribes heard this, they looked for a way to kill Him. For they were afraid of Him, because the whole crowd was astonished at His teaching.

“Truly I tell you that if anyone says to this mountain, ‘Be lifted up and thrown into the sea,’ and has no doubt in his heart but believes that it will happen, it will be done for him.

He sent still another, and this one they killed. He sent many others; some they beat and others they killed.

But the tenants said to one another, ‘This is the heir. Come, let us kill him, and the inheritance will be ours.’

Have you never read this Scripture: ‘The stone the builders rejected has become the cornerstone.

This is from the Lord, and it is marvelous in our eyes’?”

At this, the leaders sought to arrest Jesus, for they knew that He had spoken this parable against them. But fearing the crowd, they left Him and went away.

At this, the leaders sought to arrest Jesus, for they knew that He had spoken this parable against them. But fearing the crowd, they left Him and went away.

So they brought it, and He asked them, “Whose image is this? And whose inscription?” “Caesar’s,” they answered.

In this way, none of the seven left any children. And last of all, the woman died.

Jesus replied, “This is the most important: ‘Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God, the Lord is One.

The second is this: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ No other commandment is greater than these.”

…and to love Him with all your heart and with all your understanding and with all your strength, and to love your neighbor as yourself. This is more important than all burnt offerings and sacrifices.”

Jesus called His disciples to Him and said, “Truly I tell you, this poor widow has put more than all the others into the treasury.

Pray that this will not occur in the winter.

Now learn this lesson from the fig tree: As soon as its branches become tender and sprout leaves, you know that summer is near.

Truly I tell you, this generation will not pass away until all these things have happened.

Some of those present, however, expressed their indignation to one another: “Why this waste of perfume?

They were delighted to hear this, and they promised to give him money. So Judas began to look for an opportunity to betray Jesus.

While they were eating, Jesus took bread, spoke a blessing and broke it, and gave it to the disciples, saying, “Take it; this is My body.”

He said to them, “This is My blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many.

“Truly I tell you,” Jesus replied, “this very night, before the rooster crows twice, you will deny Me three times.”

“Abba, Father,” He said, “all things are possible for You. Take this cup from Me. Yet not what I will, but what You will.”

Every day I was with you, teaching in the temple courts, and you did not arrest Me. But this has happened that the Scriptures would be fulfilled.”

“We heard Him say, ‘I will destroy this man-made temple, and in three days I will build another that is made without hands.’”

At this, the high priest tore his clothes and declared, “Why do we need any more witnesses?

There the servant girl saw him and again said to those standing nearby, “This man is one of them.”

But he began to curse and swear, “I do not know this man of whom you speak!”

When some of those standing nearby heard this, they said, “Behold, He is calling Elijah.”

When the centurion standing there in front of Jesus saw how He had breathed His last, he said, “Truly this man was the Son of God!”

Pilate was surprised to hear that Jesus was already dead, so he summoned the centurion to ask if this was so.

After this, Jesus appeared in a different form to two of them as they walked along in the country.

“How can I be sure of this?” Zechariah asked the angel. “I am an old man, and my wife is well along in years.”

“I am Gabriel,” replied the angel. “I stand in the presence of God, and I have been sent to speak to you and to bring you this good news.

And now you will be silent and unable to speak until the day this comes to pass, because you did not believe my words, which will be fulfilled at their proper time.”

“The Lord has done this for me. In these days He has shown me favor and taken away my disgrace among the people.”

Mary was greatly troubled at his words and wondered what kind of greeting this might be.

“How can this be,” Mary asked the angel, “since I am a virgin?”

They said to her, “There is no one among your relatives who bears this name.”

And all who heard this wondered in their hearts and asked, “What then will this child become?” For the Lord’s hand was with him.

And all who heard this wondered in their hearts and asked, “What then will this child become?” For the Lord’s hand was with him.

This was the first census to take place while Quirinius was governor of Syria.

And this will be a sign to you: You will find a baby wrapped in swaddling cloths and lying in a manger.”

When the angels had left them and gone into heaven, the shepherds said to one another, “Let us go to Bethlehem and see this thing that has happened, which the Lord has made known to us.”

Then Simeon blessed them and said to His mother Mary: “Behold, this Child is appointed to cause the rise and fall of many in Israel, and to be a sign that will be spoken against,

When His parents saw Him, they were astonished. “Child, why have You done this to us?” His mother asked. “Your father and I have been anxiously searching for You.”

Herod added this to them all: He locked John up in prison.

The devil said to Him, “If You are the Son of God, tell this stone to become bread.”

…and He began by saying, “Today this Scripture is fulfilled in your hearing.”

All spoke well of Him and marveled at the gracious words that came from His lips. “Isn’t this the son of Joseph?” they asked.

Jesus said to them, “Surely you will quote this proverb to Me: ‘Physician, heal yourself! Do here in Your hometown what we have heard that You did in Capernaum.’”

On hearing this, all the people in the synagogue were enraged.

But Jesus rebuked the demon. “Be silent!” He said. “Come out of him!” At this, the demon threw the man down before them all and came out without harming him.

All the people were overcome with amazement and asked one another, “What is this message? With authority and power He commands the unclean spirits, and they come out!”

When Simon Peter saw this, he fell at Jesus’ knees. “Go away from me, Lord,” he said, “for I am a sinful man.”

But the scribes and Pharisees began thinking to themselves, “Who is this man who speaks blasphemy? Who can forgive sins but God alone?”

After this, Jesus went out and saw a tax collector named Levi sitting at the tax booth. “Follow Me,” He told him,

They came to Jesus and pleaded with Him earnestly, “This man is worthy to have You grant this,
