…and placed it in his own new tomb that he had cut into the rock. Then he rolled a great stone across the entrance to the tomb and went away.

After the Sabbath, at dawn on the first day of the week, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary went to see the tomb.

But the angel said to the women, “Do not be afraid, for I know that you are looking for Jesus, who was crucified.

While the women were on their way, some of the guards went into the city and reported to the chief priests all that had happened.

…and instructed them: “You are to say, ‘His disciples came by night and stole Him away while we were asleep.’

And he proclaimed: “After me will come One more powerful than I, the straps of whose sandals I am not worthy to stoop down and untie.

…and He was there for forty days, being tempted by Satan. He was with the wild animals, and the angels ministered to Him.

“What do You want with us, Jesus of Nazareth? Have You come to destroy us? I know who You are—the Holy One of God!”

All the people were amazed and began to ask one another, “What is this? A new teaching with authority! He commands even the unclean spirits, and they obey Him!”

As soon as Jesus and His companions had left the synagogue, they went with James and John to the home of Simon and Andrew.

So He went to her, took her by the hand, and helped her up. The fever left her, and she began to serve them.

That evening, after sunset, people brought to Jesus all the sick and demon-possessed,

And He healed many who were ill with various diseases and drove out many demons. But He would not allow the demons to speak, because they knew who He was.

Early in the morning, while it was still dark, Jesus got up and went out to a solitary place to pray.

Simon and his companions went to look for Him,

But Jesus answered, “Let us go on to the neighboring towns so I can preach there as well, for that is why I have come.”

Then a leper came to Jesus, begging on his knees: “If You are willing, You can make me clean.”

“See that you don’t tell anyone. But go, show yourself to the priest and present the offering Moses prescribed for your cleansing, as a testimony to them.”

“See that you don’t tell anyone. But go, show yourself to the priest and present the offering Moses prescribed for your cleansing, as a testimony to them.”

But the man went out and openly began to proclaim and spread the news. Consequently, Jesus could no longer enter a town in plain view, but He stayed out in solitary places. Yet people came to Him from every quarter.

A few days later Jesus went back to Capernaum. And when the people heard that He was home,

…they gathered in such large numbers that there was no more room, not even outside the door, as Jesus spoke the word to them.

Then a paralytic was brought to Him, carried by four men.

Since they were unable to get to Jesus through the crowd, they uncovered the roof above Him, made an opening, and lowered the paralytic on his mat.

Once again Jesus went out beside the sea. All the people came to Him, and He taught them there.

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.”

Now John’s disciples and the Pharisees were often fasting. So people came to Jesus and asked, “Why don’t Your disciples fast like John’s disciples and those of the Pharisees?”

One Sabbath Jesus was passing through the grainfields, and His disciples began to pick the heads of grain as they walked along.

So the Pharisees said to Him, “Look, why are they doing what is unlawful on the Sabbath?”

During the high priesthood of Abiathar, he entered the house of God and ate the consecrated bread, which was lawful only for the priests. And he gave some to his companions as well.”

In order to accuse Jesus, they were watching to see if He would heal on the Sabbath.

So Jesus withdrew with His disciples to the sea, accompanied by a large crowd from Galilee, Judea,

Jerusalem, Idumea, the region beyond the Jordan, and the vicinity of Tyre and Sidon. The large crowd came to Him when they heard what great things He was doing.

Jesus asked His disciples to have a boat ready for Him so that the crowd would not crush Him.

For He had healed so many that all who had diseases were pressing forward to touch Him.

But He warned them sternly not to make Him known.

Then Jesus went up on the mountain and called for those He wanted, and they came to Him.

He appointed twelve of them, whom He designated as apostles, to accompany Him, to be sent out to preach,

Once again Jesus began to teach beside the sea, and such a large crowd gathered around Him that He got into a boat and sat in it, while all the people crowded along the shore.

“Listen! A farmer went out to sow his seed.

Then Jesus said, “He who has ears to hear, let him hear.”

He replied, “The mystery of the kingdom of God has been given to you, but to those on the outside everything is expressed in parables,

He went on to say, “Pay attention to what you hear. With the measure you use, it will be measured to you, and even more will be added to you.

Then He asked, “To what can we compare the kingdom of God? With what parable shall we present it?

But after it is planted, it grows to be the largest of all garden plants and puts forth great branches, so that the birds of the air nest in its shade.”

With many such parables Jesus spoke the word to them, to the extent that they could understand.
