“ He answered, "is the man who will betray me.
026:024 The Son of Man is indeed going as is written concerning Him; but alas for that man by whom the Son of Man is betrayed! It had been a happy thing for that man if he had never been born."
026:025 Then Judas, the disciple who was betraying Him, asked, "Can it be I, Rabbi?" "It is you," He replied.
026:026 During the meal Jesus took a Passover biscuit, blessed it and broke it. He then gave it to the disciples, saying, "Take this and eat it: it is my body." ”

“ He left in order to teach and to proclaim His Message
in the neighbouring towns.
011:002 Now John had heard in prison about the Christ's doings,
and he sent some of his disciples to inquire:
011:003 "Are you the Coming One, or is it a different person that we
are to expect?"
011:004 "Go and report to John what you see and hear," replied Jesus;
011:005 "blind eyes receive sight, and cripples walk; lepers are cleansed, and deaf ears hear; the dead are raised to life, and the poor have the Good News proclaimed to them ”

“ When you open its mouth, you will find a shekel in it: bring that coin and give it to them for yourself and me."
018:001 Just then the disciples came to Jesus and asked, "Who ranks
higher than others in the Kingdom of the Heavens?"
018:002 So He called a young child to Him, and, bidding him stand
in the midst of them,
018:003 said, "In solemn truth I tell you that unless you turn and become like little children, you will in no case be admitted into the Kingdom of the Heavens. ”

“ Heavenly Father is complete.
006:001 "But beware of doing your good actions in the sight of men, in order to attract their gaze; if you do, there is no reward for you with your Father who is in Heaven.
006:002 `When you give in charity, never blow a trumpet before you as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and streets in order that their praises may be sung by men. I solemnly tell you that they already have their reward.
006:003 But when you are giving in charity, let not your left hand
perceive what your right hand is doing,
006:004 that your charities may be in secret ”

“ If they have called the master of the house Baal-zebul, how much more will they slander his servants?
010:026 Fear them not, however; there is nothing veiled which will
not be uncovered, nor secret which will not become known.
010:027 What I tell you in the dark, speak in the light; and what is
whispered into your ear, proclaim upon the roofs of the houses.
010:028 "And do not fear those who kill the body, but cannot kill the soul; but rather fear him who is able to destroy both soul and body in Gehenna. ”

“ For we
have seen his Star in the east, and have come here to
do him homage."
002:003 Reports of this soon reached the king, and greatly agitated
not only him but all the people of Jerusalem.
002:004 So he assembled all the High Priests and Scribes of the people,
and anxiously asked them where the Christ was to be born.
002:005 "At Bethlehem in Judaea," they replied; "for so it stands
written in the words of the Prophet,
002:006 "`And thou, Bethlehem in the land of Judah, by no means the least honorable art thou among princely places in Judah! ”

“ He replied, "who, if he has but
a single sheep and it falls into a hole on the Sabbath,
will not lay hold of it and lift it out?
012:012 Is not a man, however, far superior to a sheep?
Therefore it is right to do good on the Sabbath."
012:013 Then He said to the man, "Stretch out your arm." And he stretched it out, and it was restored quite sound like the other.
012:014 But the Pharisees after leaving the synagogue consulted together
against Him, how they might destroy Him.
012:015 Aware of this, Jesus departed elsewhere; and a great number
of people followed Him, all of whom He cured. ”

“ For Herod is about to make search for the child in order to destroy Him."
002:014 So Joseph roused himself and took the babe and His mother by night and departed into Egypt.
002:015 There he remained till Herod's death, that what the Lord had said through the Prophet might be fulfilled, "Out of Egypt I called My Son."
002:016 Then Herod, finding that the Magi had trifled with him, was furious, and sent and massacred all the boys under two years of age, in Bethlehem and all its neighbourhood, according to the date he had so carefully ascertained from the Magi. ”

“ God's thoughts, but men's."
016:024 Then Jesus said to His disciples, "If any one desires
to follow me, let him renounce self and take up his cross,
and so be my follower.
016:025 For whoever desires to save his life shall lose it, and whoever loses his life for my sake shall find it.
016:026 Why, what benefit will it be to a man if he gains the whole
world but forfeits his life? Or what shall a man give to buy
back his life?
016:027 For the Son of Man is soon to come in the glory of the Father
with His angels, and then will He requite every man according
to his actions. ”

“ Then the king said to the servants, "`Bind him hand and foot and fling him into the darkness outside: there will be the weeping aloud and the gnashing of teeth.'
022:014 "For there are many called, but few chosen."
022:015 Then the Pharisees went and consulted together how they might entrap Him in His conversation.
022:016 So they sent to Him their disciples together with the Herodians; who said, "Teacher, we know that you are truthful and that you faithfully teach God's truth; and that no fear of man misleads you, for you are not biased by men's wealth or rank. ”

“ His face shone like the sun, and His raiment became as white
as the light.
017:003 And suddenly Moses and Elijah appeared to them conversing with Him.
017:004 Then Peter said to Jesus, "Master, we are thankful to you that we are here. If you approve, I will put up three tents here, one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah." ”

“ See, the moment is close at hand when the Son of Man is to be betrayed into the hands of sinful men.
026:046 Rouse yourselves. Let us be going. My betrayer is close at hand."
026:047 He had scarcely finished speaking when Judas came— one of the Twelve—accompanied by a great crowd of men armed with swords and bludgeons, sent by the High Priests and Elders of the People.
026:048 Now the betrayer had agreed upon a sign with them, to direct them. He had said, "The one whom I kiss is the man: lay hold of him."
026:049 So he went straight to Jesus and said, "Peace to you, Rabbi!" ”

“ He said, "remember that every Scribe well trained for the Kingdom of the Heavens is like a householder who brings out of his storehouse new things and old."
013:053 Jesus concluded this series of parables and then departed.
013:054 And He came into His own country and proceeded to teach in their synagogue, so that they were filled with astonishment and exclaimed, "Where did he obtain such wisdom, and these wondrous powers?
013:055 Is not this the carpenter's son? Is not his mother called Mary?
And are not his brothers, James, Joseph, Simon and Judah? ”

“ I forgave you all that debt, because you entreated me:
018:033 ought not you also to have had pity on your fellow servant,
just as I had pity on you?'
018:034 "So his master, greatly incensed, handed him over to the jailers
until he should pay all he owed him.
018:035 "In the same way my Heavenly Father will deal with you, if you
do not all of you forgive one another from your hearts."
019:001 When Jesus had finished these discourses, He removed from Galilee
and came into that part of Judaea which lay beyond the Jordan. ”

“ If then your eyesight is good, your whole body will be well lighted;
006:023 but if your eyesight is bad, your whole body will be dark. If however the very light within you is darkness, how dense must the darkness be!
006:024 "No man can be the bondservant of two masters; for either he will dislike one and like the other, or he will attach himself to one and think slightingly of the other. You cannot be the bondservants both of God and of gold. ”

“ THIS IS JESUS THE KING OF THE JEWS.
027:038 At the same time two robbers were crucified with Him,
one at His right hand and the other at His left.
027:039 And the passers-by reviled Him. They shook their heads at Him
027:040 and said, "You who would pull down the Sanctuary and build a new one within three days, save yourself. If you are God's Son, come down from the cross."
027:041 In like manner the High Priests also, together with the Scribes and the Elders, taunted Him.
027:042 "He saved others," they said, "himself he cannot save! He is the King of Israel! ”

“ He cried. "Alas for thee, Bethsaida! For had the mighty works been done in Tyre and Sidon which have been done in both of you, they would long ere now have repented, covered with sackcloth and ashes.
011:022 Only I tell you that it will be more endurable for Tyre and Sidon on the day of Judgement than for you.
011:023 And thou, Capernaum, shalt thou be exalted even to Heaven? ”

“ Why, which is greater?—the offering, or the altar which makes the offering holy?
023:020 He who swears by the altar swears both by it and by everything on it;
023:021 he who swears by the Sanctuary swears both by it and by Him
who dwells in it;
023:022 and he who swears by Heaven swears both by the throne of God
and by Him who sits upon it.
023:023 "Alas for you, Scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites, for you pay the tithe on mint, dill, and cumin, while you have neglected the weightier requirements of the Law—just judgement, mercy, and faithful dealing. ”

“ There is only One who is truly good. But if you desire
to enter into Life, keep the Commandments."
019:018 "Which Commandments?" he asked. Jesus answered, "`Thou shalt
not kill;' `Thou shalt not commit adultery;' `Thou shalt not steal;'
`Thou shalt not lie in giving evidence;'
019:019 `Honour thy father and thy mother' ”

“ Listen to Him."
017:006 On hearing this voice, the disciples fell on their faces
and were filled with terror.
017:007 But Jesus came and touched them, and said, "Rouse yourselves
and have no fear."
017:008 So they looked up, and saw no one but Jesus.
017:009 As they were descending the mountain, Jesus laid a command upon them. "Tell no one," He said, "of the sight you have seen till the Son of Man has risen from among the dead."
017:010 "Why then," asked the disciples, "do the Scribes say that Elijah
must first come?" ”

“ But beware of the yeast of the Pharisees and Sadducees."
016:012 Then they perceived that He had not warned them against bread-yeast, but against the teaching of the Pharisees and Sadducees.
016:013 When He arrived in the neighbourhood of Caesarea Philippi, Jesus questioned His disciples. "Who do people say that the Son of Man is?" He asked.
016:014 "Some say John the Baptist," they replied; "others Elijah; others Jeremiah or one of the Prophets." ”

“ He said, "may be compared
to a king who celebrated the marriage of his son,
022:003 and sent his servants to call the invited guests to the wedding,
but they were unwilling to come.
022:004 "Again he sent other servants with a message to those who were invited. "`My breakfast is now ready," he said, `my bullocks and fat cattle are killed, and every preparation is made: come to the wedding.'
022:005 "They however gave no heed, but went, one to his home in the country,
another to his business;
022:006 and the rest seized the king's servants, maltreated them,
and murdered them. ”

“ He said, "is like a mustard-seed, which a man
takes and sows in his ground.
013:032 It is the smallest of all seeds, and yet when full-grown it
is larger than any herb and forms a tree, so that the birds
come and build in its branches."
013:033 Another parable He spoke to them. "The Kingdom of the Heavens," He said, "is like yeast which a woman takes and buries in a bushel of flour, for it to work there till the whole mass has risen." ”

“ Matthan of Jacob;
001:016 and Jacob of Joseph the husband of Mary, who was the mother of JESUS who is called CHRIST.
001:017 There are therefore, in all, fourteen generations from Abraham to David; fourteen from David to the Removal to Babylon; and fourteen from the Removal to Babylon to the Christ.
001:018 The circumstances of the birth of Jesus Christ were these. After his mother Mary was betrothed to Joseph, before they were united in marriage, she was found to be with child through the Holy Spirit. ”

“ His disciples came to Him with the request, "Explain to us
the parable of the darnel sown in the field."
013:037 "The sower of the good seed," He replied, "is the Son of Man;
013:038 the field is the world; the good seed—these are the sons
of the Kingdom; the darnel, the sons of the Evil one.
013:039 The enemy who sows the darnel is *the Devil*; the harvest
is the Close of the Age; the reapers are the angels. ”

“ James the son of Zabdi,
and his brother John;
010:003 Philip and Bartholomew, Thomas and Matthew the tax-gatherer,
James the son of Alphaeus, and Thaddaeus;
010:004 Simon the Cananaean, and Judas the Iscariot, who also betrayed Him.
010:005 These twelve Jesus sent on a mission, after giving them their instructions: "Go not," He said, "among the Gentiles, and enter no Samaritan town;
010:006 but, instead of that, go to the lost sheep of Israel's race. ”

“ As soon as its branches have now become soft and it is bursting into leaf, you all know that summer is near.
024:033 So you also, when you see all these signs, may be sure that He is near—at your very door.
024:034 I tell you in solemn truth that the present generation will certainly not pass away without all these things having first taken place.
024:035 Earth and sky will pass away, but it is certain that my words
will not pass away.
024:036 "But as to that day and the exact time no one knows—not even
the angels of heaven, nor the Son, but the Father alone. ”

“ So his master ordered that he and his
wife and children and everything that he had should be sold,
and payment be made.
018:026 The servant therefore falling down, prostrated himself at
his feet and entreated him. "`Only give me time,' he said,
`and I will pay you the whole.'
018:027 "Whereupon his master, touched with compassion, set him free and forgave him the debt. ”
