CHAPTER SEVEN: JESUS' FINAL VISIT TO JERUSALEM
Saturday
129. The Jews Prepare for the Passover
[John 11:55-57]
Jn 11:55
[Jn] And the Jews' passover was nigh at
hand:
and many went out of the country
up to Jerusalem before the passover, to purify themselves.
Jn 11:56
[Jn] Then sought they for Jesus, and spake
among themselves,
as they stood in the temple,
What think ye, that he will not come to the feast?
Jn 11:57
[Jn] Now both the chief priests and the
Pharisees
had given a commandment,
that, if any man knew where he were,
he should shew [it], that they might take him.
130. On the Road to Jerusalem
[Matthew 20:17-19; Mark 10:32-34; &
Luke 18:31-34]
Mt 20:17
Mk 10:32
[Mt Mk ] And
[ Mk ] they were
[Mt Mk ] in the way going
up to Jerusalem;
[ Mk ] and
[Mt Mk ] Jesus
[ Mk ] went before
them: and they were amazed;
and as they followed, they were afraid.
Lk 18:31
[ Mk Lk] And he
[Mt Mk Lk] took
[ Mk ] again
[Mt Mk Lk] the twelve
[Mt ] disciples
apart,
[ Mk ] and began
to tell them
what things should happen unto him,
[Mt Lk] and said unto
them,
Mt 20:18
Mk 10:33
[Mt Mk Lk] Behold, we go up to Jerusalem,
and
[ Lk] all
things that are written by the prophets concerning
[Mt Mk Lk] the Son of man
[ Lk] shall
be accomplished.
Lk 18:32
[ Lk] For
he
[Mt Mk Lk] shall be delivered
[Mt Mk ] unto the chief priests,
and
[ Mk ] unto the
[Mt Mk ] scribes; and they
shall condemn him to death,
Mt 20:19
[Mt Mk ] and shall deliver
him
[Mt Mk Lk] unto the Gentiles:
Mk 10:34
[ Mk Lk] and
[ Mk ] they shall
[Mt Mk Lk] mock
[ Mk ] him,
[ Lk] and
spitefully entreat
[
] [him],
[ Mk Lk] and
[ Mk ] shall
[ Mk Lk] spit upon
[ Mk ] him:
Lk 18:33
[Mt Mk Lk] and
[ Lk] they
[ Mk Lk] shall
[Mt Mk Lk] scourge
[ Mk ] him,
[Mt Mk Lk] and
[ Mk ] shall
[Mt ] crucify
[
] [and]
[ Mk Lk] kill him:
[Mt Mk Lk] and the third day he shall
rise again.
Lk 18:34
[ Lk] And
they understood none of these things:
and this saying was hid from them,
neither knew they the things which were spoken.
131. James & John Seek Greatness
[Matthew 20:20-28 & Mark 10:35-45]
Mk 10:35
[ Mk] And
Mt 20:20
[Mt ] then
[Mt Mk] came to him
[Mt ] the mother of
[Mt Mk] the sons of Zebedee
[Mt ] with her sons,
[ Mk] James and John,
[Mt ] worshipping [him],
and desiring a certain thing of him,
[ Mk] saying, Master, we would
that thou shouldest do for us
whatsoever we shall desire.
Mt 20:21
Mk 10:36
[Mt Mk] And he said unto
[Mt ] her,
[Mt Mk] What would
[ Mk] ye that I should do
for you?
[Mt ] She
Mk 10:37
[Mt Mk] saith unto him, Grant
[ Mk] unto us
[Mt Mk] that
[Mt ] these my two sons
[Mt Mk] may sit, the one on thy right
hand, and the other on
[ Mk] thy
[Mt Mk] left
[ Mk] hand,
[Mt Mk] in thy
[Mt ] kingdom
[ ] [and]
[ Mk] glory.
Mt 20:22
Mk 10:38
[Mt Mk] But Jesus
[Mt ] answered and
[Mt Mk] said
[ Mk] unto them,
[Mt Mk] Ye know not what ye ask.
Are ye able to drink of the cup that I
[Mt ] shall
[Mt Mk] drink of, and to be baptized
with the baptism that I am baptized with?
Mk 10:39
[ Mk] And
[Mt Mk] they said unto him, We are able.
Mt 20:23
[Mt Mk] And
[ Mk] Jesus
[Mt Mk] said unto them, Ye shall indeed
drink of
[Mt ] my
[Mt Mk] cup
[ Mk] that I drink of;
[Mt Mk] and with the baptism that I am
baptized withal
shall ye be baptized:
Mk 10:40
[Mt Mk] but to sit on my right hand, and
on my left,
is not mine to give;
but [it shall be given to them] for whom it is prepared
[Mt ] of my Father.
Mt 20:24
Mk 10:41
[Mt Mk] And when the ten heard [it], they
[ Mk] began to
[Mt Mk] be moved with indignation against
[Mt ] the two brethren,
[ Mk] James and John.
Mt 20:25
Mk 10:42
[Mt Mk] But Jesus called them [to him],
and saith
[ Mk] unto them,
[Mt Mk] Ye know that they which
[ Mk] are accounted to
[Mt Mk] rule
[ Mk] over
[Mt Mk] the Gentiles exercise lordship
over them; and
[ Mk] their
[Mt Mk] great ones exercise authority
upon them.
Mt 20:26
Mk 10:43
[Mt Mk] But it shall not be so among you:
but whosoever will be great among you,
[Mt ] let him
[Mt Mk] be your minister;
Mt 20:27
Mk 10:44
[Mt Mk] and whosoever
[ Mk] of you
[Mt Mk] will be chief
[Mt ] among you, let him
[ Mk] of all
[Mt Mk] be
[Mt ] your
[Mt Mk] servant:
Mt 20:28
Mk 10:45
[Mt Mk] even
[Mt ] as
[Mt Mk] the Son of man came not to be
ministered unto,
but to minister,
and to give his life a ransom for many.
132. A Blind Man Hears Jesus Pass By*
[Mark 10:46a (...came to Jericho:)
& Luke 18:35-37]
[*Note: This story is concluded below in Story 135.]
Mk 10:46a
Lk 18:35
[Mk Lk] And
[ Lk] it came to pass, that
as
[Mk ] they
[Mk Lk] came
[ Lk] nigh
[Mk Lk] unto Jericho,
[ Lk] a certain blind man
sat by the way side begging:
Lk 18:36
[ Lk] and hearing the multitude
pass by,
he asked what it meant.
Lk 18:37
[ Lk] And they told him, that
Jesus of Nazareth passeth by.
133. Jesus a Guest at Zacchaeus' House
[Luke 19:1-10]
Lk 19:1
[Lk] And [Jesus] entered and passed through
Jericho.
Lk 19:2
[Lk] And, behold, [there was] a man named
Zacchaeus,
which was the chief among the publicans, and he was rich.
Lk 19:3
[Lk] And he sought to see Jesus who he
was;
and could not for the press,
because he was little of stature.
Lk 19:4
[Lk] And he ran before,
and climbed up into a sycomore tree to see him:
for he was to pass that [way].
Lk 19:5
[Lk] And when Jesus came to the place,
he looked up, and saw him,
and said unto him, Zacchaeus, make haste, and come down;
for to day I must abide at thy house.
Lk 19:6
[Lk] And he made haste, and came down,
and received him joyfully.
Lk 19:7
[Lk] And when they saw [it], they all
murmured, saying,
That he was gone to be guest with a man that is a sinner.
Lk 19:8
[Lk] And Zacchaeus stood, and said unto
the Lord;
Behold, Lord, the half of my goods I give to the poor;
and if I have taken any thing from any man
by false accusation, I restore [him] fourfold.
Lk 19:9
[Lk] And Jesus said unto him,
This day is salvation come to this house,
forsomuch as he also is a son of Abraham.
Lk 19:10
[Lk] For the Son of man is come
to seek and to save that which was lost.
134. The Parable of the Pounds
[Luke 19:11-28]
Lk 19:11
[Lk] And as they heard these things,
he added and spake a parable,
because he was nigh to Jerusalem, and because they thought
that the kingdom of God should immediately appear.
Lk 19:12
[Lk] He said therefore,
A certain nobleman went into a far country
to receive for himself a kingdom, and to return.
Lk 19:13
[Lk] And he called his ten servants,
and delivered them ten pounds,
and said unto them, Occupy till I come.
Lk 19:14
[Lk] But his citizens hated him, and sent
a message after him,
saying, We will not have this [man] to reign over us.
Lk 19:15
[Lk] And it came to pass,
that when he was returned, having received the kingdom,
then he commanded these servants to be called unto him,
to whom he had given the money,
that he might know how much every man had gained by trading.
Lk 19:16
[Lk] Then came the first, saying,
Lord, thy pound hath gained ten pounds.
Lk 19:17
[Lk] And he said unto him, Well, thou
good servant:
because thou hast been faithful in a very little,
have thou authority over ten cities.
Lk 19:18
[Lk] And the second came, saying,
Lord, thy pound hath gained five pounds.
Lk 19:19
[Lk] And he said likewise to him, Be thou
also over five cities.
Lk 19:20
[Lk] And another came, saying, Lord, behold,
[here is] thy pound,
which I have kept laid up in a napkin:
Lk 19:21
[Lk] for I feared thee, because thou art
an austere man:
thou takest up that thou layedst not down,
and reapest that thou didst not sow.
Lk 19:22
[Lk] And he saith unto him, Out of thine
own mouth
will I judge thee, [thou] wicked servant.
Thou knewest that I was an austere man,
taking up that I laid not down,
and reaping that I did not sow:
Lk 19:23
[Lk] wherefore then gavest not thou my
money into the bank,
that at my coming I might have required mine own with usury?
Lk 19:24
[Lk] And he said unto them that stood
by,
Take from him the pound,
and give [it] to him that hath ten pounds.
Lk 19:25
[Lk] (And they said unto him, Lord, he
hath ten pounds.)
Lk 19:26
[Lk] For I say unto you,
That unto every one which hath shall be given;
and from him that hath not,
even that he hath shall be taken away from him.
Lk 19:27
[Lk] But those mine enemies,
which would not that I should reign over them,
bring hither, and slay [them] before me.
Lk 19:28
[Lk] And when he had thus spoken,
he went before, ascending up to Jerusalem.
135. Jesus Heals Two Blind Men*
[Matthew 20:29-34; Mark 10:46b-52 (and
as he...); & Luke 18:38-43]
[*Note: This is a continuation of Story 132.]
Mt 20:29
Mk 10:46b
[Mt Mk ] And as
[ Mk ] he
[Mt Mk ] went out from Jericho
[ Mk ] with his
disciples, and
[Mt Mk ] a great multitude
[
] [which]
[Mt ] followed
him,
Mt 20:30
[Mt ] behold,
two
[Mt Mk ] blind
[Mt ] men,
[
] [one of whom was]
[ Mk ] Bartimaeus,
the son of Timaeus,
[Mt Mk ] sat by the way side
[ Mk ] begging.
Mk 10:47
Lk 18:38
[Mt Mk Lk] And
[Mt Mk ] when
[Mt ] they
[Mt Mk ] heard that
[ Mk ] it was
[Mt Mk ] Jesus
[ Mk ] of Nazareth
[
] [that]
[Mt ] passed
by,
[
] [they]
[ Mk ] began to
[Mt Mk Lk] cry
[Mt Mk ] out,
[ Mk ] and
[Mt Mk Lk] say,
[Mt ] O
Lord
[ Mk Lk] Jesus,
[Mt Mk Lk] [thou] Son of David, have mercy
on
[Mt ] us.
Mt 20:31
Mk 10:48
Lk 18:39
[Mt Mk Lk] And
[ Mk ] many
[
] [of]
[Mt ] the
multitude
[ Lk] which
went before
[Mt Mk Lk] rebuked
[Mt ] them,
[Mt Mk Lk] that
[Mt ] they
[Mt Mk Lk] should hold
[Mt ] their
[Mt Mk Lk] peace: but
[Mt ] they
[Mt Mk Lk] cried
[ Mk Lk] so much
[Mt Mk Lk] the more,
[Mt ] saying,
O Lord,
[Mt Mk Lk] [Thou] Son of David, have mercy
on
[Mt ] us.
Mt 20:32
Mk 10:49
Lk 18:40
[Mt Mk Lk] And Jesus stood still,
[ Mk Lk] and commanded
[
] [them]
[ Mk Lk] to be
[ Lk] brought
unto him,
[Mt ] and
[Mt Mk ] called
[Mt ] them.
[ Mk ] And they
call the blind
[
] [men],
[ Mk ] saying
unto
[
] [them],
[ Mk ] Be of good
comfort, rise; he calleth
[
] [you].
Mk 10:50
[ Mk ] And
[
] [Bartimaeus],
[ Mk ] casting
away his garment, rose, and came to Jesus.
Mk 10:51
[ Mk Lk] And
[ Lk] when
[
] [they were]
[ Lk] come
near,
[ Mk ] Jesus answered
[Mt Mk ] and
[ Lk] asked,
Lk 18:41
[Mt Mk Lk] saying
[ Mk ] unto
[
] [them],
[Mt Mk Lk] What will
[Mt ] ye
[Mt Mk Lk] that I should do unto
[Mt ] you?
[ Mk Lk] And
[ Mk ] the blind
[
] [men]
Mt 20:33
[Mt Mk Lk] said
[Mt Mk ] unto him,
[Mt Mk Lk] Lord,
[Mt ] that
our eyes may be opened,
[ Mk Lk] that
[
] [we]
[ Mk Lk] may receive
[
] [our]
[ Mk Lk] sight.
Mt 20:34
Mk 10:52
Lk 18:42
[Mt Mk Lk] And Jesus
[Mt ] had
compassion [on them], and touched their eyes,
[
] [and]
[ Mk Lk] said unto
[
] [them],
[ Mk ] Go
[
] [your]
[ Mk ] way;
[ Lk] receive
[
] [your]
[ Lk] sight:
[
] [your]
[ Mk Lk] faith hath made
[
] [you]
[ Mk Lk] whole.
Lk 18:43
[Mt Mk Lk] And immediately
[Mt ] their
eyes
[Mt Mk Lk] received sight, and
[Mt ] they
[Mt Mk Lk] followed
[ Mk ] Jesus in
the way,
[ Lk] glorifying
God: and all the people,
when they saw [it], gave praise unto God.
136. Jesus Arrives at Bethany
[John 12:1, 9-11]
Jn 12:1
[Jn] Then Jesus six days before the passover
came to Bethany,
where Lazarus was which had been dead,
whom he raised from the dead.
Jn 12:9
[Jn] Much people of the Jews therefore
knew that he was there:
and they came not for Jesus' sake only,
but that they might see Lazarus also,
whom he had raised from the dead.
Jn 12:10
[Jn] But the chief priests consulted
that they might put Lazarus also to death;
Jn 12:11
[Jn] because that by reason of him
many of the Jews went away, and believed on Jesus.
Sunday
137. Jesus Enters Jerusalem Triumphantly
[Matthew 21:1-11; Mark 11:1-11; Luke
19:29-44; & John 12:12-19]
Mt 21:1
Mk 11:1
Lk 19:29
[Mt Mk Lk ] And
[ Lk
] it came to pass
Jn 12:12a
[
Jn] on the next day,
[Mt Mk Lk ] when
[Mt Mk ]
they
[Mt Mk Lk ] drew
[Mt Mk ]
nigh unto Jerusalem,
[Mt
] and were come
[ Lk
] nigh
[Mt Mk Lk ] to Bethphage
[ Mk Lk ] and
Bethany,
[Mt Mk Lk ] at the mount
[ Lk
] called [the mount]
[Mt Mk Lk ] of Olives,
[Mt
] then
[Mt Mk Lk ] sent forth
[Mt
] Jesus
[Mt Mk Lk ] two
[ Mk Lk ] of his
[Mt Mk Lk ] disciples,
Mk 11:2
[ Mk
] and
Mt 21:2
Lk 19:30
[Mt Mk Lk ] saith
[Mt Mk ]
unto them,
[Mt Mk Lk ] Go
[ Mk Lk ] your
way
[Mt Mk Lk ] into the village
over against
[Mt Mk ]
you: and straightway
[ Mk Lk ] at your
entering into it,
[Mt Mk Lk ] ye shall find
[Mt
] an ass
[Mt Mk Lk ] tied,
[Mt
] and
[Mt Mk Lk ] a colt
[Mt
] with her,
[ Mk Lk ] whereon
[ Lk
] yet
[ Mk Lk ] never
man sat:
[Mt Mk Lk ] loose
[Mt
] [them],
[Mt Mk Lk ] and bring
[Mt
] [them] unto me.
Mt 21:3
Mk 11:3
Lk 19:31
[Mt Mk Lk ] And if any [man]
[Mt Mk ]
say
[Mt
] ought
[Mt Mk ]
unto
[Mt Mk Lk ] you,
[
] [and]
[ Lk
] ask,
[ Mk Lk ] Why
do ye
[ Lk
] loose
[
] [them]?
[ Lk
] thus
[Mt Lk ]
shall
[Mt Mk Lk ] ye say
[ Lk
] unto him,
[Mt Mk Lk ] Because the Lord
hath need of
[Mt
] them;
[Mt Mk ]
and straightway he will send
[Mt
] them
[ Mk
] hither.
Mt 21:6
Mk 11:4
Lk 19:32
[Mt Mk Lk ] And
[Mt
] the disciples
[ Lk
] that were sent
[Mt Mk Lk ] went
[ Mk Lk ] their
way,
[Mt
] and did as Jesus commanded them,
Jn 12:14a
[ Mk Lk Jn] and found
[ Mk
] the colt tied by the door without
in a place where two ways met,
[ Lk
] even as he had said unto them.
Lk 19:33
[ Mk Lk ] And
[ Lk
] as
[ Mk Lk ] they
[ Lk
] were
[ Mk Lk ] loosing
[ Lk
] the colt,
Mk 11:5
[ Mk
] certain of
[ Lk
] the owners thereof
[ Mk
] that stood there
[ Mk Lk ] said
unto them, What
[ Mk
] do
[ Mk Lk ] ye,
loosing the colt?
Mk 11:6
Lk 19:34
[ Mk Lk ] And
they said
[ Mk
] unto them,
[ Lk
] The Lord hath need of him;
[ Mk
] even as Jesus had commanded: and they let them go.
Mt 21:7
Mk 11:7
Lk 19:35
[Mt Mk Lk ] And they brought
[Mt
] the
[Mt Jn]
ass,
[Mt
] and
[Mt Mk ]
the
[
Jn] young
[Mt Mk ]
colt
[ Mk Lk ] to Jesus:
[Mt Mk Lk ] and they cast
their garments upon
[Mt
] [the ass and]
[ Lk
] the colt,
[Mt Mk Lk ] and
[Mt Lk ]
they
[Mt Mk Lk Jn] set
[ Lk Jn]
Jesus
[Mt Mk Lk Jn] thereon.
Mt 21:8
Mk 11:8
Lk 19:36
[Mt Mk Lk ] And
[ Lk
] as he went,
[Mt
] very
Jn 12:12b
[Mt Mk Jn] many
[Mt Jn]
people
[
Jn] that were come to the feast
[Mt Mk Lk ] spread their garments
in the way:
[Mt Mk ]
and others,
[
Jn] when they heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem,
Jn 12:13
[
Jn] took
[
] [and]
[Mt Mk ]
cut down
[Mt Mk Jn] branches
[Mt Mk ]
from
[Mt Mk Jn] the
[
Jn] palm
[Mt Mk Jn] trees,
[
Jn] and went forth to meet him,
[Mt Mk ]
and strawed [them] in the way.
Mt 21:9
Mk 11:9
Lk 19:37
[Mt Mk Lk ] And
[ Lk
] when he was come nigh,
even now at the descent of the mount of Olives,
[Mt Lk ]
the
[ Lk
] whole
[Mt Lk ]
multitude
[ Lk
] of the disciples
[Mt Mk ]
that went before, and they that followed,
[ Lk
] began to rejoice and praise God with a loud voice
for all the mighty works that they had seen,
[
Jn] and
[Mt Mk Jn] cried,
Lk 19:38
[Mt Mk Lk ] saying,
[Mt Mk Jn] Hosanna
[Mt
] to the Son of David:
[Mt Mk Lk Jn] Blessed [is]
[ Lk Jn]
the King
[
Jn] of Israel
[Mt Mk Lk Jn] that cometh in the name
of the Lord:
[ Lk
] Peace in heaven, and glory in the highest:
Mk 11:10
[ Mk
] Blessed [be] the kingdom of our father David,
that cometh in the name of the Lord:
[Mt Mk ]
Hosanna in the highest.
Lk 19:39
[ Lk
] And some of the Pharisees from among the multitude
said unto him, Master, rebuke thy disciples.
Lk 19:40
[ Lk
] And he answered and said unto them,
I tell you that, if these should hold their peace,
the stones would immediately cry out.
Mt 21:4
[Mt
] All this was done, that it might be fulfilled
which was spoken by the prophet,
Jn 12:14b
[
Jn] as it is written,
[Mt
] saying,
Mt 21:5
[Mt
] Tell ye the
Jn 12:15
[Mt Jn]
daughter of Sion,
[
Jn] Fear not:
[Mt Jn]
behold, thy King cometh
[Mt
] unto thee, meek, and
[Mt Jn]
sitting upon
[Mt
] an ass, and
[Mt Jn]
a colt
[Mt
] the foal
[Mt Jn]
of an ass.
Jn 12:16
[
Jn] These things understood not
his disciples at the first:
but when Jesus was glorified, then remembered they
that these things were written of him,
and [that] they had done these things unto him.
Lk 19:41
[ Lk
] And when he was come near,
he beheld the city, and wept over it,
Lk 19:42
[ Lk
] saying, If thou hadst known, even thou,
at least in this thy day,
the things [which belong] unto thy peace!
but now they are hid from thine eyes.
Lk 19:43
[ Lk
] For the days shall come upon thee,
that thine enemies shall cast a trench about thee,
and compass thee round,
and keep thee in on every side,
Lk 19:44
[ Lk
] and shall lay thee even with the ground,
and thy children within thee;
and they shall not leave in thee
one stone upon another; because thou knewest not
the time of thy visitation.
Mt 21:10
Mk 11:11
[Mt Mk ]
And
[Mt
] when
[ Mk
] Jesus
[Mt Mk ]
entered into Jerusalem,
[Mt
] all the city was moved, saying, Who is this?
Mt 21:11
[Mt
] And the multitude said,
This is Jesus the prophet of Nazareth of Galilee.
Jn 12:17
[
Jn] The people therefore that was with him
when he called Lazarus out of his grave,
and raised him from the dead, bare record.
Jn 12:18
[
Jn] For this cause the people also met him,
for that they heard that he had done this miracle.
Jn 12:19
[
Jn] The Pharisees therefore said among themselves,
Perceive ye how ye prevail nothing?
behold, the world is gone after him.
[ Mk
] And
[
] [he entered]
[ Mk
] into the temple:
and when he had looked round about upon all things,
and now the eventide was come,
he went out unto Bethany with the twelve.

138. Jesus Curses the Fig Tree
[Matthew 21:18-19a (...henceforward
for ever.) & Mark 11:12-14]
Mt 21:18
Mk 11:12
[Mt Mk] And
[ Mk] on the morrow,
[Mt ] in the morning,
[ Mk] when they were come
from Bethany,
[Mt ] as he returned into
the city,
[Mt Mk] he hungered.
Mt 21:19a
Mk 11:13
[Mt Mk] And seeing a fig tree
[ Mk] afar off
[Mt ] in the way
[ Mk] having leaves,
[Mt Mk] he came
[Mt ] to it,
[ Mk] if haply he might find
any thing thereon:
[Mt Mk] and
[ Mk] when he came to it,
he
[Mt Mk] found nothing
[Mt ] thereon,
[Mt Mk] but leaves
[Mt ] only;
[ Mk] for the time of figs
was not [yet].
Mk 11:14
[Mt Mk] And
[ Mk] Jesus answered and
[Mt Mk] said unto it, Let no
[ Mk] man eat
[Mt Mk] fruit
[Mt ] grow-
[ ] [n]
[Mt Mk] of thee hereafter for ever.
[ Mk] And his disciples heard
[it].
139. Jesus' Final Cleansing of the Temple
[Matthew 21:12-17; Mark 11:15-19; &
Luke 19:45-48]
Mk 11:15
[ Mk ] And they
come to Jerusalem:
Mt 21:12
Lk 19:45
[Mt Mk Lk] and
[Mt Mk ] Jesus
[Mt Mk Lk] went into the temple
[Mt ] of
God,
[Mt Mk Lk] and
[ Mk Lk] began to
[Mt Mk Lk] cast out
[Mt ] all
[Mt Mk Lk] them that sold and bought in
[Mt Mk ] the temple,
and overthrew the tables of the moneychangers,
and the seats of them that sold doves;
Mk 11:16
[ Mk ] and would
not suffer that any man
should carry [any] vessel through the temple.
Mt 21:13
Mk 11:17
[Mt Mk ] And
[ Mk ] he taught,
Lk 19:46
[Mt Mk Lk] saying unto them, Is it
[ Mk ] not
[Mt Mk Lk] written, My house
[Mt Mk ] shall
[Mt Mk Lk] be
[Mt Mk ] called
[ Mk ] of all
nations
[Mt Mk Lk] the house of prayer?
but ye have made it a den of thieves.
Mt 21:14
[Mt ] And
the blind and the lame came to him in the temple;
and he healed them.
Mt 21:15
Mk 11:18
[Mt Mk ] And
[Mt ] when
[Mt Mk ] the chief priests
and the scribes
[ Mk ] heard [it],
and
[Mt ] saw
the wonderful things that he did,
and the children crying in the temple, and saying,
Hosanna to the Son of David;
they were sore displeased,
Mt 21:16
[Mt ] and
said unto him, Hearest thou what these say?
And Jesus saith unto them, Yea; have ye never read,
Out of the mouth of babes and sucklings
thou hast perfected praise?
Lk 19:47
[ Lk] And
he taught daily in the temple.
But the chief priests and the scribes
and the chief of the people
[ Mk Lk] sought
[ Mk ] how
[ Mk Lk] to destroy him,
Lk 19:48
[ Lk] and
could not find what they might do:
[ Mk Lk] for
[ Mk ] they feared
him, because
[ Mk Lk] all the people
[ Lk] were
very attentive to hear him,
[
] [and]
[ Mk ] were astonished
at his doctrine.
Mt 21:17
Mk 11:19
[Mt Mk ] And
[ Mk ] when even
was come,
[Mt Mk ] he
[Mt ] left
them, and
[Mt Mk ] went out of the city
[Mt ] into
Bethany; and he lodged there.

140. The Lesson of the Withered Fig Tree
[Matthew 21:19b-22 (And presently...)&
Mark 11:20-26]
Mt 21:19b
Mk 11:20
[Mt Mk] And
[ Mk] in the morning, as they
passed by, they saw
[Mt Mk] the fig tree
[ ] [had]
[Mt ] presently
[Mt Mk] withered away
[ Mk] from the roots.
Mt 21:20
[Mt ] And when the disciples
saw [it], they marvelled, saying,
How soon is the fig tree withered away!
Mk 11:21
[ Mk] And Peter calling to
remembrance saith unto him,
Master, behold, the fig tree which thou cursedst
is withered away.
Mt 21:21
Mk 11:22
[Mt Mk] And Jesus answering saith unto
them,
[ Mk] Have faith in God.
Mk 11:23
[ Mk] For
[Mt Mk] verily I say unto you,
[ Mk] That
[Mt ] if ye have faith, and
doubt not,
ye shall not only do this
[which is done] to the fig tree, but also
[ Mk] whosoever
[Mt Mk] shall say unto this mountain,
Be thou removed,
and be thou cast into the sea;
[ Mk] and shall not doubt
in his heart,
but shall believe that those things which he saith
shall come to pass;
[Mt Mk] it shall be
[ Mk] to him, whatsoever he
saith.
Mt 21:22
[Mt ] And
Mk 11:24
[ Mk] therefore I say unto
you,
[Mt Mk] All things, whatsoever ye
[Mt ] shall
[Mt Mk] ask in prayer, believe
[ Mk] that ye receive, and
[Mt Mk] ye shall
[Mt ] receive.
Mk 11:25
[ Mk] And when ye stand praying,
forgive, if ye have ought against any:
that your Father also which is in heaven
may forgive you your trespasses.
Mk 11:26
[ Mk] But if ye do not forgive,
neither will your Father which is in heaven
forgive your trespasses.
141. Jesus' Authority Questioned
[Matthew 21:23-27; Mark 11:27-33; &
Luke 20:1-8]
Mk 11:27
[ Mk ] And they
come again to Jerusalem:
Mt 21:23
Lk 20:1
[Mt Mk Lk] and
[ Lk] it
came to pass, [that]
[Mt ] when
he was come into the temple
[ Lk] on
one of those days,
[Mt Mk Lk] as he was
[ Mk ] walking,
[
] [and]
[Mt Lk] teaching
[ Lk] the
people
[ Mk Lk] in the temple,
[ Lk] and
preaching the gospel,
[Mt Mk Lk] there came unto
[Mt Mk ] him
[Mt Mk Lk] the chief priests,
[ Mk Lk] and the scribes,
[Mt Mk Lk] and the elders
[Mt ] of
the people,
Mk 11:28
Lk 20:2
[Mt Mk Lk] and
[ Lk] spake
[ Mk Lk] unto him,
[Mt Mk Lk] saying,
[ Lk] Tell
us,
[Mt Mk Lk] by what authority doest thou
these things? and who
[ Lk] is
he that
[Mt Mk Lk] gave thee this authority
[ Mk ] to do these
things?
Mt 21:24
Mk 11:29
Lk 20:3
[Mt Mk Lk] And
[Mt Mk ] Jesus
[Mt Mk Lk] answered and said unto them,
I also will ask you one thing,
[ Mk Lk] and
[Mt Mk Lk] answer me,
[Mt Mk ] and I will tell you
by what authority I do these things.
Mt 21:25
Mk 11:30
Lk 20:4
[Mt Mk Lk] The baptism of John,
[Mt ] whence
[Mt Mk Lk] was it? from heaven, or of
men?
[ Mk ] answer
me.
Mk 11:31
Lk 20:5
[Mt Mk Lk] And they reasoned with themselves,
saying,
If we shall say, From heaven; he will say
[Mt ] unto
us,
[Mt Mk Lk] Why then did ye not believe
him?
Mt 21:26
Mk 11:32
Lk 20:6
[Mt Mk Lk] But if we shall say, Of men;
[Mt ] we
[Mt Mk ] fear
[ Lk] all
[Mt Mk Lk] the people
[ Lk] will
stone us:
[Mt Mk Lk] for
[ Lk] they
[Mt Mk ] all
[Mt Mk Lk] hold
[ Mk ] that
[Mt Mk Lk] John
[ Mk Lk] was
[Mt Mk Lk] a prophet
[ Mk ] indeed.
Mt 21:27
Mk 11:33
Lk 20:7
[Mt Mk Lk] And they answered
[Mt Mk ] Jesus, and said,
We
[Mt Mk Lk] cannot tell
[ Lk] whence
[it was].
Lk 20:8
[Mt Mk Lk] And
[ Mk Lk] Jesus
[ Mk ] answering
[Mt Mk Lk] saith unto them, Neither tell
I you
by what authority I do these things.
142. The Parable of the Two Sons
[Matthew 21:28-32]
Mt 21:28
[Mt] But what think ye? A [certain] man
had two sons;
and he came to the first, and said,
Son, go work to day in my vineyard.
Mt 21:29
[Mt] He answered and said, I will not:
but afterward he repented, and went.
Mt 21:30
[Mt] And he came to the second, and said
likewise.
And he answered and said, I [go], sir: and went not.
Mt 21:31
[Mt] Whether of them twain did the will
of [his] father?
They say unto him, The first. Jesus saith unto them,
Verily I say unto you, That the publicans and the harlots
go into the kingdom of God before you.
Mt 21:32
[Mt] For John came unto you in the way
of righteousness,
and ye believed him not:
but the publicans and the harlots believed him:
and ye, when ye had seen [it],
repented not afterward, that ye might believe him.
143. The Parable of the Wicked Husbandmen
[Matthew 21:33-46; Mark 12:1-12; &
Luke 20:9-19]
Mk 12:1
Lk 20:9
[ Mk Lk] And he began to speak
unto
[ Lk] the
people
[ Mk ] by
[ Mk Lk] parable-
[ Mk ] s
[
] [such as]
[ Lk] this;
Mt 21:33
[Mt ] Hear
another parable: There was
[Mt Mk Lk] a
[Mt Lk] certain
[Mt Mk Lk] man,
[Mt ] a
householder, which
[Mt Mk Lk] planted a vineyard,
[Mt Mk ] and set an hedge
about
[Mt ] it,
[Mt Mk ] and digged
[Mt ] in
it
[Mt Mk ] a
[ Mk ] winefat
[
] [for the]
[Mt ] winepress,
[Mt Mk ] and built a tower,
[Mt Mk Lk] and let it out to husbandmen,
and went into a far country
[ Lk] for
a long time.
Mt 21:34
Mk 12:2
Lk 20:10
[Mt Mk Lk] And
[Mt Lk] when
[Mt Mk Lk] the season
[Mt ] of
the fruit drew near,
[Mt Mk Lk] he sent
[
] [one of]
[Mt ] his
[Mt Mk Lk] servant-
[Mt ] s
[Mt Mk Lk] to the husbandmen, that
[ Mk ] he
[Mt Mk ] might receive
[ Mk ] from the
husbandmen
[ Mk Lk] of
[Mt Mk Lk] the fruit-
[Mt ] s
[Mt Mk Lk] of
[ Mk Lk] the vineyard,
[
] [which]
[ Lk] they
should give him:
Mt 21:35
Mk 12:3
[Mt Mk Lk] and
[Mt Lk] the husbandmen
[Mt Mk ] took
[
] [this]
[Mt ] one
[
] [of]
[Mt ] his
servants,
[Mt Mk ] and
[Mt Mk Lk] beat
[ Mk Lk] him, and sent [him]
away empty.
Mk 12:4
Lk 20:11
[Mt Mk Lk] And
[ Mk Lk] again he sent
[ Mk ] unto them
[Mt Mk Lk] another
[ Mk Lk] servant:
[ Lk] and
they beat him also,
[ Mk ] and they
[Mt Mk ] stoned
[ Mk ] him, and
wounded [him] in the head,
[ Mk Lk] and handled
[ Lk] [him]
[ Mk Lk] shamefully,
[ Lk] and
[ Mk Lk] sent [him] away
[ Lk] empty.
Mk 12:5
Lk 20:12
[Mt Mk Lk] And
[ Mk Lk] again he sent
[Mt Mk ] another,
[ Lk] a
third:
[ Mk Lk] and they
[ Lk] wounded
him also, and cast [him] out,
[
] [and]
[Mt Mk ] killed
[ Mk ] him. And
Mt 21:36
[Mt ] again,
he sent
[ Mk ] many
[Mt Mk ] other
[Mt ] servants,
more than the first:
and they did unto them likewise;
[ Mk ] beating
some, and killing some.
Mt 21:37
Lk 20:13
[Mt Lk] Then
[ Lk] said
the lord of the vineyard, What shall I do?
Mk 12:6
[ Mk ] Having
yet therefore one
[Mt Mk ] son, his
[ Mk ] wellbeloved,
[Mt Mk ] he sent
[ Mk ] him also
[Mt Mk ] unto them last
[Mt ] of
all,
[Mt Mk ] saying,
[ Lk] I
will send
[Mt Mk Lk] my
[ Lk] beloved
[Mt Mk Lk] son:
[ Lk] it
may be
[Mt Mk Lk] they will reverence
[ Lk] [him]
when they see him.
Mt 21:38
Mk 12:7
Lk 20:14
[Mt Mk Lk] But
[Mt Lk] when
[ Mk ] those
[Mt Mk Lk] husbandmen
[Mt Lk] saw
[Mt ] the
son,
[Mt Lk] they
[ Lk] reasoned
[Mt Mk Lk] among themselves, saying,
This is the heir; come, let us kill him,
[Mt Mk ] and
[Mt ] let
us seize on his
[Mt Mk Lk] inheritance,
[ Lk] that
[
] [it]
[ Lk] may
[ Mk Lk] be ours.
Mt 21:39
Mk 12:8
Lk 20:15
[Mt Mk Lk] And they
[Mt Mk ] took him, and
[Mt Mk Lk] cast
[ Lk] him
[Mt Mk Lk] out of the vineyard, and killed
[him].
Mt 21:40
[Mt ] When
Mk 12:9
[Mt Mk Lk] the lord therefore of the vineyard
[Mt ] cometh,
[Mt Mk Lk] what will
[Mt ] he
[Mt Mk Lk] do
[Mt Lk] unto
[Mt ] those
husbandmen?
Mt 21:41
[Mt ] They
say unto him,
He will miserably destroy those wicked men,
and will let out [his] vineyard unto other husbandmen,
which shall render him the fruits in their seasons.
Mt 21:42
[Mt ] Jesus
saith unto them,
Lk 20:16
[ Mk Lk] He will come and
destroy
[ Lk] these
[ Mk Lk] husbandmen, and will
give the vineyard unto others.
[ Lk] And
when they heard [it], they said, God forbid.
Lk 20:17
[ Lk] And
he beheld them, and said,
Mk 12:10
[ Mk ] And
[ Lk] what
is
[ Mk Lk] this
[ Lk] then
that is written
[Mt ] in
the
[Mt Mk ] scripture-
[Mt ] s?
[Mt Mk ] have ye not
[Mt ] ever
[Mt Mk ] read,
[Mt Mk Lk] The stone which the builders
rejected,
the same is become the head of the corner:
Mk 12:11
[Mt Mk ] this was the Lord's
doing,
and it is marvellous in our eyes?
Mt 21:43
[Mt ] Therefore
say I unto you, The kingdom of God
shall be taken from you, and given to a nation
bringing forth the fruits thereof.
Mt 21:44
[Mt ] And
Lk 20:18
[Mt Lk] whosoever shall
fall on that stone shall be broken;
but on whomsoever it shall fall,
it will grind him to powder.
Mt 21:45a
Mk 12:12
Lk 20:19
[Mt Mk Lk] And
[Mt ] when
[Mt Lk] the chief priests
[ Lk] and
the scribes
[Mt ] and
Pharisees had heard his parables,
Mt 21:46b
[Mt Mk ] they
[Mt Mk Lk] sought
[ Lk] the
same hour
[Mt Mk Lk] to lay hands on him;
[ Mk Lk] for
Mt 21:45b
[Mt Mk Lk] they perceived that he spake
[ Lk] this
[ Mk Lk] parable
[Mt Mk Lk] of them:
Mt 21:46a
[Mt Mk Lk] but
Mt 21:46c
[Mt Mk Lk] they feared the people,
[Mt ] because
they took him for a prophet:
[ Mk ] and they
left him, and went their way.
144. The Parable of the Wedding Feast
[Matthew 22:1-14]
Mt 22:1
[Mt] And Jesus answered
and spake unto them again by parables, and said,
Mt 22:2
[Mt] The kingdom of heaven is like unto
a certain king,
which made a marriage for his son,
Mt 22:3
[Mt] and sent forth his servants to call
them
that were bidden to the wedding: and they would not come.
Mt 22:4
[Mt] Again, he sent forth other servants,
saying,
Tell them which are bidden,
Behold, I have prepared my dinner:
my oxen and [my] fatlings [are] killed,
and all things [are] ready: come unto the marriage.
Mt 22:5
[Mt] But they made light of [it], and
went their ways,
one to his farm, another to his merchandise:
Mt 22:6
[Mt] and the remnant took his servants,
and entreated [them] spitefully, and slew [them].
Mt 22:7
[Mt] But when the king heard [thereof],
he was wroth:
and he sent forth his armies,
and destroyed those murderers, and burned up their city.
Mt 22:8
[Mt] Then saith he to his servants, The
wedding is ready,
but they which were bidden were not worthy.
Mt 22:9
[Mt] Go ye therefore into the highways,
and as many as ye shall find, bid to the marriage.
Mt 22:10
[Mt] So those servants went out into the
highways,
and gathered together all as many as they found,
both bad and good:
and the wedding was furnished with guests.
Mt 22:11
[Mt] And when the king came in to see
the guests,
he saw there a man which had not on a wedding garment:
Mt 22:12
[Mt] and he saith unto him, Friend, how
camest thou in hither
not having a wedding garment? And he was speechless.
Mt 22:13
[Mt] Then said the king to the servants,
Bind him hand and foot,
and take him away, and cast [him] into outer darkness;
there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
Mt 22:14
[Mt] For many are called, but few [are]
chosen.
145. Is it Lawful to Pay Taxes to Caesar?
[Matthew 22:15-22; Mark 12:13-17; &
Luke 20:20-26]
Mt 22:15
[Mt ] Then
went the Pharisees, and took counsel how
Mk 12:13
[Mt Mk ] to entangle him in
[his] words.
Mt 22:16
Lk 20:20
[Mt Mk Lk] And they
[ Lk] watched
[him], and
[Mt Mk Lk] sent forth
[Mt Mk ] unto him
[ Mk ] certain
[ Lk] spies,
[Mt ] disciples
[Mt Mk ] of
[ Mk ] the Pharisees
[Mt Mk ] and
[ Mk ] of
[Mt Mk ] the Herodians,
[ Lk] which
should feign themselves just men,
that they might take hold of his words,
that so they might deliver him
unto the power and authority of the governor.
Mk 12:14
Lk 20:21
[ Mk Lk] And
[ Mk ] when they
were come,
[ Mk Lk] they
[ Lk] asked
[ Mk Lk] him,
[Mt Mk Lk] saying, Master, we know that
thou
[Mt Mk ] art true,
[Mt ] and
[ Lk] sayest
and teachest rightly,
[Mt Mk Lk] and
[Mt Mk ] thou carest for no
man: for
[Mt Mk Lk] thou regardest not the person
[Mt Mk ] of men,
[ Mk Lk] but
[Mt Mk Lk] teachest the way of God in
truth.
Mt 22:17
[Mt ] Tell
us therefore, What thinkest thou?
Lk 20:22
[Mt Mk Lk] Is it lawful
[ Lk] for
us
[Mt Mk Lk] to give tribute unto Caesar,
or not?
Mk 12:15
[ Mk ] Shall we
give, or shall we not give?
Mt 22:18
Lk 20:23
[Mt Mk Lk] But
[Mt ] Jesus,
[Mt Mk Lk] perceiving their
[ Lk] craftiness,
[Mt ] wickedness,
[
] [and]
[ Mk ] hypocrisy,
[Mt Mk Lk] said
[ Mk Lk] unto them,
[Mt Mk Lk] Why tempt ye me,
[Mt ] [ye]
hypocrites?
Mt 22:19
Lk 20:24
[Mt Lk] Shew me
[Mt ] the
tribute money:
[ Mk ] bring me
[ Mk Lk] a penny,
[ Mk ] that I
may see [it].
Mk 12:16
[Mt Mk ] And they brought
[Mt ] unto
him a penny.
Mt 22:20
[Mt Mk ] And he saith unto
them,
[Mt Mk Lk] Whose
[Mt Mk ] [is] this
[Mt Mk Lk] image and superscription
[
] [that]
[ Lk] it
hath?
[ Mk Lk] And
Mt 22:21
[Mt Mk Lk] they
[ Lk] answered
and
[Mt Mk Lk] said
[Mt Mk ] unto him,
[Mt Mk Lk] Caesar's.
Mk 12:17
Lk 20:25
[ Mk Lk] And
[Mt ] then
[ Mk ] Jesus answering
[Mt Mk Lk] said unto them, Render
[Mt Lk] therefore
[Mt Mk Lk] unto Caesar the things that
are Caesar's,
and unto God the things that are God's.
Mt 22:22
Lk 20:26
[Mt Mk Lk] And
[Mt ] when
they had heard
[ Lk] his
words, they could not take hold of
[
] [them]
[ Lk] before
the people: and
[Mt Mk Lk] they marvelled
[ Mk Lk] at
[ Mk ] him
[
] [for]
[ Lk] his
answer, and held their peace,
[Mt ] and
left him, and went their way.
146. How Can There be a Resurrection?
[Matthew 22:23-33; Mark 12:18-27; &
Luke 20:27-39]
Mk 12:18
Lk 20:27
[ Mk Lk] Then
Mt 22:23
[Mt ] the
same day
[Mt Mk Lk] came to
[Mt Mk ] him
[ Lk] certain
of
[Mt Mk Lk] the Sadducees, which say that
there is no resurrection;
and they asked him,
Mt 22:24
Lk 20:28
[Mt Mk Lk] saying,
Mk 12:19
[Mt Mk Lk] Master, Moses
[ Mk Lk] wrote unto us,
[
] [and]
[Mt ] said,
[Mt Mk Lk] If any man-
[ Mk Lk] 's brother die,
[ Mk ] and
[ Lk] has
[ Mk ] left [behind]
[ Mk Lk] a wife, and
[ Lk] he
[Mt Lk] die having
[ Mk ] left
[Mt Mk Lk] no children,
[ Mk Lk] that
[Mt Mk Lk] his brother should
[ Mk Lk] take
[
] [and]
[Mt ] marry
[Mt Mk ] his
[Mt Mk Lk] wife, and raise up seed unto
his brother.
Mt 22:25
Mk 12:20
Lk 20:29
[Mt Mk Lk] Now there were
[Mt ] with
us
[Mt Mk Lk] seven brethren: and the first
[ Mk Lk] took
[
] [and]
[Mt ] married
[Mt Mk Lk] a wife,
[ Mk Lk] and
[Mt Mk Lk] died
[ Lk] without
children,
[Mt ] and,
having
[ Mk ] left
[Mt Mk ] no seed,
[Mt ] left
his wife unto his brother.
Mt 22:26
Mk 12:21
Lk 20:30
[Mt Mk Lk] And the second
[ Mk Lk] took her
[ Lk] to
wife,
[ Mk Lk] and
[ Lk] he
[Mt ] likewise
[ Mk Lk] died,
[ Mk ] neither
left he any seed,
[
] [being]
[ Lk] childless.
Lk 20:31
[Mt Mk Lk] And the third
[ Mk ] likewise
[ Lk] took
her;
Mk 12:22
[ Mk Lk] and
[ Lk] in
like manner also
[
] [each]
[Mt ] unto
[Mt Mk Lk] the seven
[ Mk ] had her:
[ Mk Lk] and they left no
[ Mk ] seed
[
] [nor]
[ Lk] children,
and died.
Mt 22:27
Lk 20:32
[Mt Lk] And
[Mt Mk Lk] last of all the woman died
also.
Mt 22:28
Mk 12:23
Lk 20:33
[Mt Mk Lk] In the resurrection therefore,
[ Mk ] when they
shall rise,
[Mt Mk Lk] whose wife shall she be of
[Mt ] the
seven?
[Mt Mk Lk] for
[ Mk Lk] the seven
[Mt ] all
[Mt Mk Lk] had her
[ Mk Lk] to wife.
Mt 22:29
Mk 12:24
Lk 20:34
[Mt Mk Lk] And Jesus answering said unto
them,
[ Mk ] Do
[Mt Mk ] ye
[ Mk ] not therefore
[Mt Mk ] err, because ye know
not the scriptures,
nor the power of God?
Mt 22:30
Mk 12:25
[Mt Mk ] For
[ Lk] the
children of this world marry,
and are given in marriage:
Lk 20:35
[ Lk] but
[Mt Mk Lk] they
[ Lk] which
shall be accounted worthy
to obtain that world, and
[Mt Lk] the resurrection,
[ Mk ] when they
shall rise
[ Mk Lk] from the dead,
[Mt Mk Lk] neither marry, nor are given
in marriage:
Lk 20:36
[ Lk] neither
can they die any more:
[Mt Mk Lk] but they are as the angels
[Mt ] of
God
[ Mk ] which are
[Mt Mk ] in heaven;
[ Lk] and
are the children of God,
being the children of the resurrection.
Mt 22:31
Mk 12:26
Lk 20:37
[Mt Mk Lk] But
[Mt Mk ] as touching
[Mt ] the
resurrection of
[Mt Mk Lk] the dead,
[ Mk Lk] that
[ Mk ] they
[ Lk] are
[ Mk Lk] raise-
[ Lk] d:
[Mt Mk ] have ye not read
[Mt ] that
which was spoken unto you by God
[ Mk ] in the
book of Moses, how
[ Lk] even
Moses shewed
[
] [this]
[ Mk Lk] in the bush,
[ Lk] when
he calleth the Lord the God of Abraham,
and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob?
[
] [For]
[ Mk ] God spake
unto him,
[Mt Mk ] saying,
Mt 22:32
[Mt Mk ] I
[Mt ] am
[Mt Mk ] the God of Abraham,
and the God of Isaac,
and the God of Jacob.
Lk 20:38
[ Lk] For
[Mt ] God
Mk 12:27
[Mt Mk Lk] is not the God of the dead,
but
[ Mk ] the God
[Mt Mk Lk] of the living:
[ Lk] for
all live unto him.
[ Mk ] Ye therefore
do greatly err.
Mt 22:33
[Mt ] And
when the multitude heard [this],
they were astonished at his doctrine.
Lk 20:39
[ Lk] Then
certain of the scribes answering said,
Master, thou hast well said.
147. Which is the Greatest Commandment?
[Matthew 22:34-40 & Mark 12:28-34a
(...kingdom of God.)]
Mt 22:34
Mk 12:28
[Mt Mk] And
[Mt ] when the Pharisees
[ ] [and]
[ Mk] the scribes
[Mt ] had heard that he had
put the Sadducees to silence,
they were gathered together.
Mt 22:35
[Mt ] Then
[Mt Mk] one of
[Mt ] them, [which was] a
lawyer,
[ Mk] came, and having heard
them reasoning together,
and perceiving that he had answered them well,
[Mt Mk] asked
[ Mk] him
[Mt ] [a question], tempting
him, and saying,
Mt 22:36
[Mt ] Master,
[Mt Mk] which
[ Mk] is
[Mt Mk] the
[Mt ] great
[ ] [and]
[ Mk] first
[Mt Mk] commandment
[ Mk] of all
[Mt ] in the law?
Mt 22:37
Mk 12:29
[Mt Mk] And Jesus
[ Mk] answered
[ ] [and]
[Mt ] said unto
[Mt Mk] him,
[ Mk] The first of all the
commandments [is],
Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord:
Mk 12:30
[ Mk] and
[Mt Mk] thou shalt love the Lord thy God
with all thy heart,
and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind,
[ Mk] and with all thy strength.
Mt 22:38
[Mt Mk] This
[Mt ] is
[Mt Mk] the first
[Mt ] and great
[Mt Mk] commandment.
Mt 22:39
Mk 12:31
[Mt Mk] And the second [is] like
[Mt ] unto it,
[ Mk] [namely] this,
[Mt Mk] Thou shalt love thy neighbour
as thyself.
[ Mk] There is none other
commandment greater than these.
Mt 22:40
[Mt ] On these two commandments
hang all the law and the prophets.
Mk 12:32
[ Mk] And the scribe said
unto him,
Well, Master, thou hast said the truth:
for there is one God; and there is none other but he:
Mk 12:33
[ Mk] and to love him with
all the heart,
and with all the understanding, and with all the soul,
and with all the strength,
and to love [his] neighbour as himself,
is more than all whole burnt offerings and sacrifices.
Mk 12:34a
[ Mk] And when Jesus saw that
he answered discreetly,
he said unto him,
Thou art not far from the kingdom of God.
148. Is Christ Merely the Son of David?
[Matthew 22:41-46; Mark 12:34b-37a
(And no man...his son?);
& Luke 20:40-44]
Mt 22:41
Mk 12:35
Lk 20:41
[Mt Mk Lk] And
[Mt Mk ] while
[Mt ] the
Pharisees were gathered together
[
] [as]
[ Mk ] he taught
in the temple,
[Mt Mk ] Jesus
[Mt ] asked
them,
Mt 22:42
[Mt ] saying,
What think ye of Christ? whose son is he?
They say unto him, [The Son] of David.
Mt 22:43
[Mt Lk] He
[ Mk ] answered
and
[Mt Mk Lk] said
[Mt Lk] unto them,
[ Mk Lk] How say
[ Mk ] the scribes
that
[ Mk Lk] Christ is the Son
of David?
Mk 12:36
Lk 20:42
[ Mk Lk] And
[Mt ] how
then doth
[Mt Mk Lk] David
[ Mk Lk] himself
[Mt Mk ] in
[ Mk ] the Holy
[Mt Mk ] Spirit
[Mt ] call
him Lord,
[Mt Mk Lk] saying
[ Lk] in
the book of Psalms,
Mt 22:44
[Mt Mk Lk] The LORD said unto my Lord,
Sit thou on my right hand,
Lk 20:43
[Mt Mk Lk] till I make thine enemies thy
footstool?
Mt 22:45
[Mt ] If
Mk 12:37a
Lk 20:44
[Mt Mk Lk] David therefore
[ Mk ] himself
[Mt Mk Lk] calleth him Lord, how is he
[then] his son?
Mt 22:46
Mk 12:34b
Lk 20:40
[Mt Mk Lk] And no
[Mt Mk ] man
[Mt ] was
able to answer him a word, neither
[Mt Mk Lk] durst
[Mt ] any
[man]
[Mt Mk Lk] from that
[Mt ] day
forth
[Mt Mk Lk] ask him
[Mt Lk] any
[Mt ] more
[questions].
149. Jesus Warns Against the Scribes & Pharisees
[Matthew 23:1-39; Mark 12:37b-40 (And
the common...);
& Luke 20:45-47]
Mk 12:37b
[ Mk ] And the
common people heard him gladly.
Mk 12:38a
Lk 20:45
[ Mk Lk] And
Mt 23:1
[Mt ] then
[ Lk] in
the audience of all
[Mt Lk] the people,
[Mt ] Jesus
spake
[Mt Mk Lk] unto
[Mt Lk] his disciples
[ Mk ] in his
doctrine,
Mt 23:2
[Mt Mk Lk] saying,
[Mt ] The
scribes and the Pharisees sit in Moses' seat:
Mt 23:3
[Mt ] all
therefore whatsoever they bid you observe,
[that] observe and do;
but do not ye after their works:
for they say, and do not.
Lk 20:46
[ Mk Lk] Beware of the scribes:
Mt 23:4
[Mt ] for
they bind heavy burdens and grievous to be borne,
and lay [them] on men's shoulders;
but they [themselves] will not move them
with one of their fingers.
Mt 23:5
[Mt ] But
all their works
they do for to be seen of men:
[ Mk Lk] they desire to walk
in long robes,
[
] [and]
[Mt ] make
broad their phylacteries,
and enlarge the borders of their garments,
Mt 23:6
Mk 12:39
[Mt Mk Lk] and
[Mt Lk] love
[Mt Mk Lk] the uppermost rooms at feasts,
and the chief seats in the synagogues,
Mt 23:7
Mk 12:38b
[Mt Mk Lk] and salutations in the marketplaces,
[Mt ] and
to be called of men, Rabbi, Rabbi.
Mt 23:8
[Mt ] But
be not ye called Rabbi: for one is your Master,
[even] Christ; and all ye are brethren.
Mt 23:9
[Mt ] And
call no [man] your father upon the earth:
for one is your Father, which is in heaven.
Mt 23:10
[Mt ] Neither
be ye called masters:
for one is your Master, [even] Christ.
Mt 23:11
[Mt ] But
he that is greatest among you
shall be your servant.
Mt 23:12
[Mt ] And
whosoever shall exalt himself shall be abased;
and he that shall humble himself shall be exalted.
Mt 23:13
[Mt ] But
woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites!
for ye shut up the kingdom of heaven against men:
for ye neither go in [yourselves],
neither suffer ye them that are entering to go in.
Mt 23:14
[Mt ] Woe
unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites!
for ye
Mk 12:40
Lk 20:47
[Mt Mk Lk] devour widows' houses,
and for a pretence make long prayers:
[Mt ] therefore
ye
[Mt Mk Lk] shall receive greater damnation.
Mt 23:15
[Mt ] Woe
unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites!
for ye compass sea and land to make one proselyte,
and when he is made, ye make him
twofold more the child of hell than yourselves.
Mt 23:16
[Mt ] Woe
unto you, [ye] blind guides, which say,
Whosoever shall swear by the temple, it is nothing;
but whosoever shall swear by the gold of the temple,
he is a debtor!
Mt 23:17
[Mt ] [Ye]
fools and blind: for whether is greater,
the gold, or the temple that sanctifieth the gold?
Mt 23:18
[Mt ] And,
Whosoever shall swear by the altar, it is nothing;
but whosoever sweareth by the gift that is upon it,
he is guilty.
Mt 23:19
[Mt ] [Ye]
fools and blind: for whether [is] greater,
the gift, or the altar that sanctifieth the gift?
Mt 23:20
[Mt ] Whoso
therefore shall swear by the altar,
sweareth by it, and by all things thereon.
Mt 23:21
[Mt ] And
whoso shall swear by the temple,
sweareth by it, and by him that dwelleth therein.
Mt 23:22
[Mt ] And
he that shall swear by heaven,
sweareth by the throne of God,
and by him that sitteth thereon.
Mt 23:23
[Mt ] Woe
unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites!
for ye pay tithe of mint and anise and cummin,
and have omitted the weightier [matters] of the law,
judgment, mercy, and faith:
these ought ye to have done,
and not to leave the other undone.
Mt 23:24
[Mt ] [Ye]
blind guides,
which strain at a gnat, and swallow a camel.
Mt 23:25
[Mt ] Woe
unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites!
for ye make clean
the outside of the cup and of the platter,
but within they are full of extortion and excess.
Mt 23:26
[Mt ] [Thou]
blind Pharisee, cleanse first
that [which is] within the cup and platter,
that the outside of them may be clean also.
Mt 23:27
[Mt ] Woe
unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites!
for ye are like unto whited sepulchres,
which indeed appear beautiful outward, but are within
full of dead [men's] bones, and of all uncleanness.
Mt 23:28
[Mt ] Even
so ye also outwardly appear righteous unto men,
but within ye are full of hypocrisy and iniquity.
Mt 23:29
[Mt ] Woe
unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites!
because ye build the tombs of the prophets,
and garnish the sepulchres of the righteous,
Mt 23:30
[Mt ] and
say, If we had been in the days of our fathers,
we would not have been partakers with them
in the blood of the prophets.
Mt 23:31
[Mt ] Wherefore
ye be witnesses unto yourselves,
that ye are the children
of them which killed the prophets.
Mt 23:32
[Mt ] Fill
ye up then the measure of your fathers.
Mt 23:33
[Mt ] [Ye]
serpents, [ye] generation of vipers,
how can ye escape the damnation of hell?
Mt 23:34
[Mt ] Wherefore,
behold, I send unto you prophets,
and wise men, and scribes:
and [some] of them ye shall kill and crucify;
and [some] of them
shall ye scourge in your synagogues,
and persecute [them] from city to city:
Mt 23:35
[Mt ] that
upon you may come all the righteous blood
shed upon the earth, from the blood of righteous Abel
unto the blood of Zacharias son of Barachias,
whom ye slew between the temple and the altar.
Mt 23:36
[Mt ] Verily
I say unto you,
All these things shall come upon this generation.
Mt 23:37
[Mt ] O
Jerusalem, Jerusalem,
[thou] that killest the prophets,
and stonest them which are sent unto thee,
how often would I have gathered thy children together,
even as a hen gathereth her chickens
under [her] wings, and ye would not!
Mt 23:38
[Mt ] Behold,
your house is left unto you desolate.
Mt 23:39
[Mt ] For
I say unto you,
Ye shall not see me henceforth, till ye shall say,
Blessed [is] he that cometh in the name of the Lord.
150. The Widow's Offering
[Mark 12:41-44 & Luke 21:1-4]
Mk 12:41
[Mk ] And Jesus sat over against
the treasury;
Lk 21:1
[ Lk] and he looked up,
[Mk Lk] and saw
[Mk ] how
[Mk Lk] the
[Mk ] people
[Mk Lk] cast
[ Lk] their gifts
[ ] [of]
[Mk ] money
[Mk Lk] into the treasury:
[Mk ] and many that were
[Mk Lk] rich
[Mk ] cast in much.
Mk 12:42
Lk 21:2
[Mk Lk] And
[ Lk] he saw also
[Mk Lk] a certain poor widow,
[ ] [which]
[Mk ] came and
[Mk Lk] cast in
[ Lk] thither
[Mk Lk] two mites,
[Mk ] which make a farthing.
Mk 12:43
Lk 21:3
[Mk Lk] And he
[Mk ] called [unto him] his
disciples, and
[Mk Lk] saith
[Mk ] unto them,
[Mk Lk] Verily I say unto you,
That this poor widow hath cast in more than all they
[Mk ] which have cast into
the treasury:
Mk 12:44
Lk 21:4
[Mk Lk] for all
[ Lk] these
[Mk Lk] have of their abundance cast in
[ Lk] unto the offerings of
God:
[Mk Lk] but she of her want hath cast
in all that she had,
[Mk ] [even] all her
[Mk Lk] living.
151. The Mount of Olives Discourse
[Matthew 24:1-25:46; Mark 13:1-37;
& Luke 21:5-36]
Mt 24:1
Mk 13:1
[Mt Mk ] And
[Mt ] Jesus
[Mt Mk ] went out,
[Mt ] and
departed from
[Mt Mk ] the temple:
[Mt ] and
his disciples came to [him]
for to shew him the buildings of the temple.
Lk 21:5
[ Lk] And
some spake of the temple,
how it was adorned with goodly stones and gifts.
[
] [And]
[ Mk ] one of
his disciples saith unto him,
Master, see what manner of stones
and what buildings [are here]!
Mt 24:2
Mk 13:2
[Mt Mk ] And Jesus
[ Mk ] answering
[Mt Mk Lk] said
[Mt Mk ] unto
[Mt ] them,
Lk 21:6
[Mt Mk Lk] See
[Mt Lk] ye
[Mt ] not
all
[Mt Mk Lk] these
[ Mk ] great buildings
[
] [and]
[Mt Lk] things?
[Mt ] verily
I say unto you,
[ Lk] The
days will come, in the which
[Mt Mk Lk] there shall not be left
[Mt ] here
[Mt Mk Lk] one stone upon another, that
shall not be thrown down.
Mt 24:3
Mk 13:3
Lk 21:7
[Mt Mk Lk] And
[Mt Mk ] as he sat upon the
mount of Olives
[ Mk ] over against
the temple,
[Mt ] the
disciples
[ Mk ] Peter and
James and John and Andrew
[Mt ] came
unto him
[Mt Mk ] privately,
[
] [and]
[ Mk Lk] asked him,
[Mt Lk] saying,
[ Lk] Master,
but
Mk 13:4
[Mt Mk ] tell us,
[Mt Mk Lk] when shall these things be?
and what [shall be] the sign
[Mt ] of
thy coming, and of the end of the world,
[ Mk Lk] when
[ Mk ] all
[ Mk Lk] these things shall
be fulfilled?
Mt 24:4
Mk 13:5
Lk 21:8
[Mt Mk Lk] And
[Mt Mk ] Jesus answering them
[ Mk ] began to
[Mt Mk Lk] say, Take heed that no
[Mt Mk ] man
[Mt Mk Lk] deceive you:
Mt 24:5
Mk 13:6
[Mt Mk Lk] for many shall come in my name,
saying, I am
[Mt ] Christ;
[ Lk] and
the time draweth near;
[Mt Mk ] and shall deceive
many:
[ Lk] go
ye not therefore after them.
Mt 24:6
Mk 13:7
Lk 21:9
[Mt Mk Lk] But
[ Mk Lk] when
[Mt Mk Lk] ye shall hear of wars
[Mt Mk ] and rumours of wars
[ Lk] and
commotions,
[Mt ] see
that ye
[Mt Mk Lk] be not
[Mt Mk ] troubled
[
] [nor]
[ Lk] terrified:
[Mt Mk Lk] for
[Mt ] all
[ Lk] these
things
[Mt Mk Lk] must
[ Lk] first
[Mt Mk Lk] come to pass; but the end
[Mt ] is
[Mt Mk Lk] not
[Mt Mk ] yet
[ Lk] by
and by.
Lk 21:10
[ Lk] Then
said he unto them,
Mt 24:7
Mk 13:8
[Mt Mk ] For
[Mt Mk Lk] nation shall rise against nation,
and kingdom against kingdom:
Lk 21:11
[Mt Mk Lk] and there shall be
[ Lk] great
[Mt Mk Lk] earthquakes in divers places,
and
[ Mk ] there shall
be
[Mt Mk Lk] famines,
[Mt Lk] and pestilences,
[ Mk ] and troubles;
[ Lk] and
fearful sights and great signs
shall there be from heaven.
Mt 24:8
[Mt ] All
[Mt Mk ] these [are] the beginning-
[ Mk ] s
[Mt Mk ] of sorrows.
Mk 13:9
Lk 21:12
[ Mk Lk] But
[ Mk ] take heed
to yourselves: for
Mt 24:9a
[Mt ] then,
[ Lk] before
all these,
[Mt Mk Lk] they shall
[ Lk] lay
their hands on you, and persecute [you],
[Mt Mk Lk] delivering
[Mt Mk ] you
[Mt Mk Lk] up
[Mt Mk ] to
[ Mk ] councils,
and
[ Mk Lk] to synagogues,
[ Lk] and
into prisons:
[ Mk ] ye shall
[Mt Mk ] be
[ Mk ] beaten
[
] [and]
[Mt ] afflicted;
and
[
] [they]
[Mt ] shall
kill you.
[ Mk ] And ye
shall be
[ Mk Lk] brought before rulers
and kings for my
[ Lk] name's
[ Mk Lk] sake.
Lk 21:13
[ Lk] And
it shall turn to you
[ Mk Lk] for a testimony
[ Mk ] against
them.
Mt 24:14
Mk 13:10
[Mt Mk ] And
[Mt ] this
[Mt Mk ] gospel
[Mt ] of
the kingdom
[ Mk ] must first
[Mt Mk ] be preached
[Mt ] in
all the world for a witness
[Mt Mk ] unto all nations;
[Mt ] and
then shall the end come.
Mk 13:11
[ Mk ] But when
they shall lead [you], and deliver you up,
take no thought beforehand what ye shall speak.
Lk 21:14
[ Lk] Settle
[it] therefore in your hearts,
[ Mk Lk] not
[ Lk] to
[ Mk Lk] premeditate
[ Lk] what
ye shall answer:
[ Mk ] but whatsoever
shall be given you in that hour,
that speak ye:
Lk 21:15
[ Lk] for
I will give you a mouth and wisdom,
which all your adversaries
shall not be able to gainsay nor resist.
[ Mk ] For it
is not ye that speak, but the Holy Ghost.
Mt 24:10
[Mt ] And
then shall many be offended,
and shall betray one another,
and shall hate one another.
Mk 13:12
Lk 21:16
[ Mk Lk] And
[ Lk] ye
shall be betrayed both by parents,
and brethren, and kinsfolks, and friends;
and [some] of you shall they cause to be put to death.
[ Mk ] The brother
shall betray the brother to death,
and the father the son;
and children shall rise up against [their] parents,
and shall cause them to be put to death.
Mt 24:9b
Mk 13:13
Lk 21:17
[Mt Mk Lk] And ye shall be hated of all
[Mt ] nations
[Mt Mk Lk] for my name's sake.
Lk 21:18
[ Lk] But
there shall not an hair of your head perish.
Lk 21:19
[ Lk] In
your patience possess ye your souls.
Mt 24:11
[Mt ] And
many false prophets shall rise,
and shall deceive many.
Mt 24:12
[Mt ] And
because iniquity shall abound,
the love of many shall wax cold.
Mt 24:13
[Mt Mk ] But he that shall
endure unto the end,
the same shall be saved.
Mk 13:14
Lk 21:20
[ Mk Lk] But
[ Lk] when
ye shall see Jerusalem compassed with armies,
then know that the desolation thereof is nigh.
Mt 24:15
[Mt Mk ] When ye
[Mt ] therefore
[Mt Mk ] shall see the abomination
of desolation,
spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing
[Mt ] in
the holy place
[ Mk ] where it
ought not,
[Mt Mk ] (let him that readeth
understand,)
Mt 24:16
Lk 21:21
[Mt Mk Lk] then let them which are in
Judaea
flee to the mountains:
[ Lk] and
let them which are in the midst of it depart out:
and let not them that are in the countries
enter thereinto:
Mk 13:15
[ Mk ] and
Mt 24:17
[Mt Mk ] let him that is on
the house top not come down
[ Mk ] into the
house, neither enter [therein],
[Mt Mk ] to take any thing
out of his house:
Mt 24:18
Mk 13:16
[Mt Mk ] and let him that
is in the field
not return back to take his garment-
[Mt ] s.
Lk 21:22
[ Lk] For
these be the days of vengeance,
that all things which are written may be fulfilled.
Mt 24:19
Mk 13:17
Lk 21:23
[Mt Mk Lk] But woe unto them that are
with child,
and to them that give suck in those days!
Mt 24:20
Mk 13:18
[Mt Mk ] But pray ye that
your flight be not in the winter,
[Mt ] neither
on the sabbath day:
Mt 24:21
Mk 13:19
[Mt Mk Lk] for
[Mt ] then
[ Mk ] [in] those
days
[Mt Mk Lk] there shall be
[Mt Lk] great
[ Lk] distress
[
] [and]
[Mt Mk ] tribulation
[ Lk] in
the land, and wrath upon this people,
[Mt Mk ] such as was not from
the beginning
[ Mk ] of the
creation
[Mt ] of
the world
[ Mk ] which God
created
[Mt Mk ] unto this time,
[Mt ] no,
[Mt Mk ] nor ever shall be.
Lk 21:24
[ Lk] And
they shall fall by the edge of the sword,
and shall be led away captive into all nations:
and Jerusalem shall be trodden down of the Gentiles,
until the times of the Gentiles be fulfilled.
Mt 24:22
Mk 13:20
[Mt Mk ] And except
[ Mk ] that the
Lord had
[Mt Mk ] shortened
[Mt ] those
[Mt Mk ] days, no flesh should
be saved:
but for the elect's sake,
[ Mk ] whom he
hath chosen, he hath
[Mt Mk ] shortened
[Mt ] those
[Mt Mk ] days.
Mk 13:21
[ Mk ] And
Mt 24:23
[Mt Mk ] then if any man shall
say unto you,
Lo, here [is] Christ; or,
[ Mk ] lo, [he
is]
[Mt Mk ] there; believe [it]
not:
Mt 24:24
Mk 13:22
[Mt Mk ] for there shall arise
false Christs,
and false prophets, and shall shew
[Mt ] great
[Mt Mk ] signs and wonders;
[Mt ] so
as
[Mt Mk ] to deceive, if [it
were] possible, even the elect.
Mk 13:23
[ Mk ] But take
ye heed:
Mt 24:25
[Mt Mk ] behold, I have foretold
you
[ Mk ] all things.
Mt 24:26
[Mt ] Wherefore
if they shall say unto you,
Behold, he is in the desert; go not forth:
behold, [he is] in the secret chambers;
believe [it] not.
Mt 24:27
[Mt ] For
as the lightning cometh out of the east,
and shineth even unto the west;
so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
Mt 24:28
[Mt ] For
wheresoever the carcase is,
there will the eagles be gathered together.
Mt 24:29
Mk 13:24
Lk 21:25
[Mt Mk Lk] And
[ Mk ] in
[Mt Mk ] those days,
[Mt ] immediately
[Mt Mk ] after
[ Mk ] that
[Mt Mk ] tribulation,
[ Lk] there
shall be signs in the sun,
and in the moon, and in the stars;
[Mt Mk ] the sun shall be
darkened,
and the moon shall not give her light,
Mk 13:25
[Mt Mk ] and the stars shall
fall
[Mt ] from
[Mt Mk ] heaven;
[Mt Mk Lk] and
[ Lk] upon
the earth
[
] [shall be]
[ Lk] distress
of nations, with perplexity;
the sea and the waves roaring;
Lk 21:26
[ Lk] men's
hearts failing them for fear,
and for looking after those things
which are coming on the earth: for
[Mt Mk Lk] the powers
[ Mk ] that are
in
[Mt Mk Lk] the heavens shall be shaken.
Mt 24:30
Mk 13:26
Lk 21:27
[Mt Mk Lk] And then
[Mt ] shall
appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven:
and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and
[Mt Mk Lk] they shall see the Son of man
coming in
[Mt Mk ] the
[Mt Mk Lk] cloud-
[Mt Mk ] s
[Mt ] of
heaven
[Mt Mk Lk] with
[ Mk ] great
[Mt Mk Lk] power and
[Mt Lk] great
[Mt Mk Lk] glory.
Mt 24:31
Mk 13:27
[Mt Mk ] And
[ Mk ] then
[Mt Mk ] shall he send his
angels
[Mt ] with
a great sound of a trumpet,
[Mt Mk ] and
[Mt ] they
[Mt Mk ] shall gather together
his elect from the four winds,
[ Mk ] from the
uttermost part of the earth
to the uttermost part of heaven,
[
] [and]
[Mt ] from
one end of heaven to the other.
Lk 21:28
[ Lk] And
when these things begin to come to pass,
then look up, and lift up your heads;
for your redemption draweth nigh.
Lk 21:29
[ Lk] And
he spake to them a parable;
Mt 24:32
Mk 13:28
[Mt Mk ] Now learn a parable
of the fig tree;
[ Lk] Behold
the fig tree, and all the trees;
Lk 21:30
[Mt Mk Lk] when
[Mt Mk ] her branch is
[Mt Mk Lk] now
[Mt Mk ] tender, and
[Mt Mk Lk] put-
[Mt Mk ] teth
[Mt Mk Lk] forth
[Mt Mk ] leaves,
[Mt Mk Lk] ye
[ Lk] see
and
[Mt Mk Lk] know
[ Lk] of
your own selves
[Mt Mk Lk] that summer
[ Mk Lk] is
[ Lk] now
[Mt Mk Lk] nigh:
Mt 24:33
Mk 13:29
Lk 21:31
[Mt Mk Lk] so likewise ye, when ye shall
see
[Mt ] all
[Mt Mk Lk] these things
[ Mk Lk] come to pass,
[Mt Mk Lk] know that
[ Lk] the
kingdom of God
[Mt Mk Lk] is nigh,
[Mt Mk ] [even] at the doors.
Mt 24:34
Mk 13:30
Lk 21:32
[Mt Mk Lk] Verily I say unto you,
[ Mk Lk] that
[Mt Mk Lk] this generation shall not pass
away, till all
[Mt Mk ] these things
[Mt Mk Lk] be fulfilled.
Mt 24:35
Mk 13:31
Lk 21:33
[Mt Mk Lk] Heaven and earth shall pass
away:
but my words shall not pass away.
Mt 24:36
Mk 13:32
[Mt Mk ] But of that day and
hour knoweth no [man],
no, not the angels
[ Mk ] which are
in
[Mt Mk ] heaven,
[ Mk ] neither
the Son,
[Mt Mk ] but
[Mt ] my
[Mt Mk ] Father
[Mt ] only.
Mt 24:37
[Mt ] But
as the days of Noe [were],
so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
Mt 24:38
[Mt ] For
as in the days that were before the flood
they were eating and drinking,
marrying and giving in marriage,
until the day that Noe entered into the ark,
Mt 24:39
[Mt ] and
knew not until the flood came,
and took them all away;
so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
Mt 24:40
[Mt ] Then
shall two be in the field;
the one shall be taken, and the other left.
Mt 24:41
[Mt ] Two
[women shall be] grinding at the mill;
the one shall be taken, and the other left.
Lk 21:34
[ Lk] And
Mk 13:33
[ Mk Lk] take heed
[ Lk] to
yourselves, lest at any time your hearts
be overcharged with surfeiting, and drunkenness,
and cares of this life,
and [so] that day come upon you unawares.
Lk 21:35
[ Lk] For
as a snare shall it come on all them
that dwell on the face of the whole earth.
Mt 24:42
Lk 21:36
[Mt Mk Lk] Watch
[Mt Lk] therefore,
[ Mk Lk] and pray
[ Lk] always,
that ye may be accounted worthy
to escape all these things that shall come to pass,
and to stand before the Son of man:
[Mt Mk ] for ye know not
[ Mk ] when
[Mt Mk ] the time
[ Mk ] is
[
] [that]
[Mt ] your
Lord doth come.
Mt 24:43
[Mt ] But
know this, that if the goodman of the house
had known in what watch the thief would come,
he would have watched,
and would not have suffered his house to be broken up.
Mt 24:44
[Mt ] Therefore
be ye also ready:
for in such an hour as ye think not
the Son of man cometh.
Mt 24:45
[Mt ] Who
then is a faithful and wise servant,
whom his lord hath made ruler over his household,
to give them meat in due season?
Mt 24:46
[Mt ] Blessed
[is] that servant,
whom his lord when he cometh shall find so doing.
Mt 24:47
[Mt ] Verily
I say unto you,
That he shall make him ruler over all his goods.
Mt 24:48
[Mt ] But
and if that evil servant shall say in his heart,
My lord delayeth his coming;
Mt 24:49
[Mt ] and
shall begin to smite [his] fellowservants,
and to eat and drink with the drunken;
Mt 24:50
[Mt ] the
lord of that servant shall come
in a day when he looketh not for [him],
and in an hour that he is not aware of,
Mt 24:51
[Mt ] and
shall cut him asunder,
and appoint [him] his portion with the hypocrites:
there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
Mk 13:34
[ Mk ] [For the
Son of man is] as a man
taking a far journey, who left his house,
and gave authority to his servants,
and to every man his work,
and commanded the porter to watch.
Mk 13:35
[ Mk ] Watch ye
therefore:
for ye know not when the master of the house cometh,
at even, or at midnight,
or at the cockcrowing, or in the morning:
Mk 13:36
[ Mk ] lest coming
suddenly he find you sleeping.
Mk 13:37
[ Mk ] And what
I say unto you I say unto all, Watch.
Mt 25:1
[Mt ] Then
shall the kingdom of heaven
be likened unto ten virgins, which took their lamps,
and went forth to meet the bridegroom.
Mt 25:2
[Mt ] And
five of them were wise, and five [were] foolish.
Mt 25:3
[Mt ] They
that [were] foolish took their lamps,
and took no oil with them:
Mt 25:4
[Mt ] but
the wise took oil
in their vessels with their lamps.
Mt 25:5
[Mt ] While
the bridegroom tarried,
they all slumbered and slept.
Mt 25:6
[Mt ] And
at midnight there was a cry made,
Behold, the bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him.
Mt 25:7
[Mt ] Then
all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps.
Mt 25:8
[Mt ] And
the foolish said unto the wise,
Give us of your oil; for our lamps are gone out.
Mt 25:9
[Mt ] But
the wise answered, saying,
[Not so]; lest there be not enough for us and you:
but go ye rather to them that sell,
and buy for yourselves.
Mt 25:10
[Mt ] And
while they went to buy, the bridegroom came;
and they that were ready went in with him
to the marriage: and the door was shut.
Mt 25:11
[Mt ] Afterward
came also the other virgins, saying,
Lord, Lord, open to us.
Mt 25:12
[Mt ] But
he answered and said,
Verily I say unto you, I know you not.
Mt 25:13
[Mt ] Watch
therefore, for ye know neither the day
nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh.
Mt 25:14
[Mt ] For
[the kingdom of heaven is]
as a man travelling into a far country,
[who] called his own servants,
and delivered unto them his goods.
Mt 25:15
[Mt ] And
unto one he gave five talents,
to another two, and to another one;
to every man according to his several ability;
and straightway took his journey.
Mt 25:16
[Mt ] Then
he that had received the five talents
went and traded with the same,
and made [them] other five talents.
Mt 25:17
[Mt ] And
likewise he that [had received] two,
he also gained other two.
Mt 25:18
[Mt ] But
he that had received one
went and digged in the earth,
and hid his lord's money.
Mt 25:19
[Mt ] After
a long time the lord of those servants cometh,
and reckoneth with them.
Mt 25:20
[Mt ] And
so he that had received five talents
came and brought other five talents, saying,
Lord, thou deliveredst unto me five talents:
behold, I have gained beside them five talents more.
Mt 25:21
[Mt ] His
lord said unto him,
Well done, [thou] good and faithful servant:
thou hast been faithful over a few things,
I will make thee ruler over many things:
enter thou into the joy of thy lord.
Mt 25:22
[Mt ] He
also that had received two talents came and said,
Lord, thou deliveredst unto me two talents:
behold, I have gained two other talents beside them.
Mt 25:23
[Mt ] His
lord said unto him,
Well done, good and faithful servant;
thou hast been faithful over a few things,
I will make thee ruler over many things:
enter thou into the joy of thy lord.
Mt 25:24
[Mt ] Then
he which had received the one talent came and said,
Lord, I knew thee that thou art an hard man,
reaping where thou hast not sown,
and gathering where thou hast not strawed:
Mt 25:25
[Mt ] and
I was afraid,
and went and hid thy talent in the earth:
lo, [there] thou hast [that is] thine.
Mt 25:26
[Mt ] His
lord answered and said unto him,
[Thou] wicked and slothful servant,
thou knewest that I reap where I sowed not,
and gather where I have not strawed:
Mt 25:27
[Mt ] thou
oughtest therefore
to have put my money to the exchangers,
and [then] at my coming
I should have received mine own with usury.
Mt 25:28
[Mt ] Take
therefore the talent from him,
and give [it] unto him which hath ten talents.
Mt 25:29
[Mt ] For
unto every one that hath shall be given,
and he shall have abundance:
but from him that hath not
shall be taken away even that which he hath.
Mt 25:30
[Mt ] And
cast ye the unprofitable servant
into outer darkness:
there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
Mt 25:31
[Mt ] When
the Son of man shall come in his glory,
and all the holy angels with him,
then shall he sit upon the throne of his glory:
Mt 25:32
[Mt ] and
before him shall be gathered all nations:
and he shall separate them one from another,
as a shepherd divideth [his] sheep from the goats:
Mt 25:33
[Mt ] and
he shall set the sheep on his right hand,
but the goats on the left.
Mt 25:34
[Mt ] Then
shall the King say unto them on his right hand,
Come, ye blessed of my Father,
inherit the kingdom prepared for you
from the foundation of the world:
Mt 25:35
[Mt ] for
I was an hungred, and ye gave me meat:
I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink:
I was a stranger, and ye took me in:
Mt 25:36
[Mt ] naked,
and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me:
I was in prison, and ye came unto me.
Mt 25:37
[Mt ] Then
shall the righteous answer him, saying,
Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, and fed [thee]?
or thirsty, and gave [thee] drink?
Mt 25:38
[Mt ] When
saw we thee a stranger, and took [thee] in?
or naked, and clothed [thee]?
Mt 25:39
[Mt ] Or
when saw we thee sick, or in prison,
and came unto thee?
Mt 25:40
[Mt ] And
the King shall answer and say unto them,
Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done [it]
unto one of the least of these my brethren,
ye have done [it] unto me.
Mt 25:41
[Mt ] Then
shall he say also unto them on the left hand,
Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire,
prepared for the devil and his angels:
Mt 25:42
[Mt ] for
I was an hungred, and ye gave me no meat:
I was thirsty, and ye gave me no drink:
Mt 25:43
[Mt ] I
was a stranger, and ye took me not in:
naked, and ye clothed me not:
sick, and in prison, and ye visited me not.
Mt 25:44
[Mt ] Then
shall they also answer him, saying,
Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, or athirst,
or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison,
and did not minister unto thee?
Mt 25:45
[Mt ] Then
shall he answer them, saying,
Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye did [it] not
to one of the least of these, ye did [it] not to me.
Mt 25:46
[Mt ] And
these shall go away into everlasting punishment:
but the righteous into life eternal.
152. The Plot to Kill Jesus
[Matthew 26:1-5; Mark 14:1-2; &
Luke 22:1-2]
Mt 26:1
[Mt ] And
it came to pass,
when Jesus had finished all these sayings,
he said unto his disciples,
Mt 26:2
[Mt ] Ye
know that
Mk 14:1
[Mt Mk ] after two days is
[the feast of] the passover,
[Mt ] and
the Son of man is betrayed to be crucified.
Lk 22:1
[ Lk] Now
the feast
[ Mk Lk] of unleavened bread,
[ Lk] drew
nigh, which is called the Passover.
Mt 26:3
[Mt ] Then
assembled together
Lk 22:2
[Mt Mk Lk] the chief priests, and the
scribes,
[Mt ] and
the elders of the people,
unto the palace of the high priest,
who was called Caiaphas,
Mt 26:4
[Mt Mk Lk] and
[Mt ] consulted,
[
] [and]
[ Mk Lk] sought how
[Mt Mk Lk] they might
[Mt Mk ] take
[Mt ] Jesus
[Mt Mk ] by subtilty, and
[Mt Mk Lk] kill
[ Lk] him;
for they feared the people.
Mt 26:5
Mk 14:2
[Mt Mk ] But they said, Not
on the feast [day],
lest there be an uproar
[Mt ] among
[Mt Mk ] the people.
153. Mary of Bethany Anoints Jesus
[Matthew 26:6-13; Mark 14:3-9; &
John 12:2-8]
Mt 26:6
Mk 14:3
[Mt Mk ] And when
[Mt ] Jesus
[Mt Mk ] was in Bethany, in
the house of Simon the leper,
Jn 12:2
[ Jn] they
made him there a supper; and Martha served:
but Lazarus was one of them that
Mt 26:7
[Mt Mk Jn] sat [at meat]
[ Jn] with
him.
Jn 12:3
[Mt Mk Jn] Then
[Mt Mk ] a woman
[
] [named]
[ Jn] Mary
[Mt Mk ] came
[Mt ] unto
him
[Mt Mk Jn] having
[Mt Mk ] an alabaster box
[
] [containing]
[ Jn] a
pound
[Mt Mk Jn] of ointment
[ Mk Jn] of spikenard,
[Mt Mk Jn] very costly;
[ Mk ] and she
brake the box,
[Mt Mk ] and poured [it] on
his head,
[ Jn] and
anointed the feet of Jesus,
and wiped his feet with her hair: and the house
was filled with the odour of the ointment.
Mt 26:8
Mk 14:4
[Mt Mk ] But
[Mt ] when
his disciples saw [it],
[ Mk ] there were
some that
[Mt Mk ] had indignation
[ Mk ] within
themselves. And
Jn 12:4
[ Jn] then
[Mt Mk Jn] saith
[ Jn] one
of his disciples, Judas Iscariot, Simon's [son],
which should betray him,
[Mt Mk ] Why
[ Mk ] was
[Mt Mk ] this waste
[ Mk ] of
Mt 26:9
Jn 12:5
[Mt Jn] this
[Mt Mk Jn] ointment
[ Mk ] made?
[ Jn] Why
was
[
] [it]
[ Jn] not
sold?
Mk 14:5
[Mt Mk ] for
[ Mk ] it
[Mt Mk ] might have been sold
[Mt Mk Jn] for
[Mt ] much,
[ Mk ] (more than
[ Mk Jn] three hundred pence,)
[Mt Mk Jn] and given to the poor.
[ Mk ] And they
murmured against her.
Jn 12:6
[ Jn] This
he said, not that he cared for the poor;
but because he was a thief, and had the bag,
and bare what was put therein.
Mt 26:10
Mk 14:6
[Mt Mk ] And
[Mt ] when
Jn 12:7a
[Mt Mk Jn] Jesus
[Mt ] understood
[it], he
[ Jn] then
[Mt Mk Jn] said
[Mt ] unto
them,
[ Mk Jn] Let her alone;
[Mt Mk ] why trouble ye
[Mt ] the
woman? for
[Mt Mk ] she hath wrought
a good work upon me.
Mt 26:11
Mk 14:7
Jn 12:8
[Mt Mk Jn] For ye have the poor with you
always,
[ Mk ] and whensoever
ye will ye may do them good:
[Mt Mk Jn] but me ye have not always.
Mk 14:8
[ Mk ] She hath
done what she could:
Mt 26:12
[Mt ] for
Jn 12:7b
[Mt Mk Jn] she
[ Jn] hath
kept
[Mt Jn] this
[Mt ] ointment
[Mt Mk Jn] for
[ Mk Jn] the
[ Jn] day
of
[Mt Jn] my
[Mt Mk Jn] burying,
[
] [and]
[ Mk ] is come
aforehand to
[Mt Mk ] anoint my body.
Mt 26:13
Mk 14:9
[Mt Mk ] Verily I say unto
you, Wheresoever this gospel
shall be preached throughout the whole world,
[this] also that she hath done
shall be spoken of for a memorial of her.
154. Judas Agrees to Betray Jesus
[Matthew 26:14-16; Mark 14:10-11; &
Luke 22:3-6]
Mt 26:14
Lk 22:3
[Mt Lk] Then
[ Lk] entered
Satan into
Mk 14:10
[Mt Mk Lk] Judas
[ Lk] sur-
[Mt Lk] named
[Mt Mk Lk] Iscariot,
[ Lk] being
[Mt Mk ] one
[ Lk] of
the number
[Mt Mk Lk] of the twelve.
Lk 22:4
[ Mk Lk] And
[ Lk] he
[Mt Mk Lk] went
[ Mk Lk] his way
[Mt Mk ] unto
[Mt Mk Lk] the chief priests
[ Lk] and
captains, and communed with
[
] [them],
[ Lk] how
[ Mk Lk] to betray him unto
them.
Mt 26:15
[Mt ] And
[
] [he]
[Mt ] said
[unto them], What will ye give me,
and I will deliver him unto you?
Mk 14:11
Lk 22:5
[Mt Mk Lk] And
[ Mk ] when
[Mt Mk ] they
[ Mk ] heard [it],
[ Mk Lk] they were glad, and
[Mt Mk Lk] covenanted to
[ Mk Lk] give
[Mt Mk Lk] him
[Mt ] thirty
[Mt Mk Lk] pieces of silver.
Mt 26:16
Lk 22:6
[Mt Mk Lk] And he
[ Lk] promised,
and
[Mt ] from
that time
[Mt Mk Lk] sought
[ Mk ] how he
might have
[Mt Mk Lk] opportunity to betray him
[ Lk] unto
them in the absence of the multitude.
Wednesday
155. Jesus' Movements During the Feast
[Luke 21:37-38]
Lk 21:37
[Lk] And in the day time he was teaching
in the temple;
and at night he went out,
and abode in the mount that is called [the mount] of Olives.
Lk 21:38
[Lk] And all the people came early in
the morning
to him in the temple, for to hear him.
156. Jesus' Last Public Discourse
[John 12:20-36]
Jn 12:20
[Jn] And there were certain Greeks among
them,
that came up to worship at the feast:
Jn 12:21
[Jn] the same came therefore to Philip,
which was of Bethsaida of Galilee, and desired him, saying,
Sir, we would see Jesus.
Jn 12:22
[Jn] Philip cometh and telleth Andrew:
and again Andrew and Philip tell Jesus.
Jn 12:23
[Jn] And Jesus answered them, saying,
The hour is come, that the Son of man should be glorified.
Jn 12:24
[Jn] Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except
a corn of wheat
fall into the ground and die, it abideth alone:
but if it die, it bringeth forth much fruit.
Jn 12:25
[Jn] He that loveth his life shall lose
it;
and he that hateth his life in this world
shall keep it unto life eternal.
Jn 12:26
[Jn] If any man serve me, let him follow
me;
and where I am, there shall also my servant be:
if any man serve me, him will [my] Father honour.
Jn 12:27
[Jn] Now is my soul troubled; and what
shall I say?
Father, save me from this hour:
but for this cause came I unto this hour.
Jn 12:28
[Jn] Father, glorify thy name.
Then came there a voice from heaven, [saying],
I have both glorified [it], and will glorify [it] again.
Jn 12:29
[Jn] The people therefore, that stood
by, and heard [it],
said that it thundered: others said, An angel spake to him.
Jn 12:30
[Jn] Jesus answered and said,
This voice came not because of me, but for your sakes.
Jn 12:31
[Jn] Now is the judgment of this world:
now shall the prince of this world be cast out.
Jn 12:32
[Jn] And I, if I be lifted up from the
earth,
will draw all [men] unto me.
Jn 12:33
[Jn] This he said, signifying what death
he should die.
Jn 12:34
[Jn] The people answered him,
We have heard out of the law that Christ abideth for ever:
and how sayest thou, The Son of man must be lifted up?
who is this Son of man?
Jn 12:35
[Jn] Then Jesus said unto them,
Yet a little while is the light with you.
Walk while ye have the light, lest darkness come upon you:
for he that walketh in darkness
knoweth not whither he goeth.
Jn 12:36
[Jn] While ye have light, believe in the
light,
that ye may be the children of light.
These things spake Jesus, and departed,
and did hide himself from them.
157. Summary of Jesus' Ministry
[John 12:37-50]
Jn 12:37
[Jn] But though he had done so many miracles
before them,
yet they believed not on him:
Jn 12:38
[Jn] that the saying of Esaias the prophet
might be fulfilled,
which he spake, Lord, who hath believed our report?
and to whom hath the arm of the Lord been revealed?
Jn 12:39
[Jn] Therefore they could not believe,
because that Esaias said again,
Jn 12:40
[Jn] He hath blinded their eyes, and hardened
their heart;
that they should not see with [their] eyes,
nor understand with [their] heart, and be converted,
and I should heal them.
Jn 12:41
[Jn] These things said Esaias,
when he saw his glory, and spake of him.
Jn 12:42
[Jn] Nevertheless among the chief rulers
also
many believed on him;
but because of the Pharisees they did not confess [him],
lest they should be put out of the synagogue:
Jn 12:43
[Jn] for they loved the praise of men
more than the praise of God.
Jn 12:44
[Jn] Jesus cried and said, He that believeth
on me,
believeth not on me, but on him that sent me.
Jn 12:45
[Jn] And he that seeth me seeth him that
sent me.
Jn 12:46
[Jn] I am come a light into the world,
that whosoever believeth on me should not abide in darkness.
Jn 12:47
[Jn] And if any man hear my words, and
believe not,
I judge him not: for I came not to judge the world,
but to save the world.
Jn 12:48
[Jn] He that rejecteth me, and receiveth
not my words,
hath one that judgeth him: the word that I have spoken,
the same shall judge him in the last day.
Jn 12:49
[Jn] For I have not spoken of myself;
but the Father which sent me, he gave me a commandment,
what I should say, and what I should speak.
Jn 12:50
[Jn] And I know that his commandment is
life everlasting:
whatsoever I speak therefore,
even as the Father said unto me, so I speak.
