But Pilate said, "Why, what evil has he done?" But they kept shouting the more fiercely, "Let him be crucified!"

How he went into the house of God when Abiathar was priest, and ate the consecrated bread, which none but priests may eat, and gave some to his men?

But over and over, he strictly forbade them to make him known.

Then he went into a house, but again such a multitude assembled that they could not get their food.

but he who blasphemes against the Holy Spirit is never forgiven. Nay, he is in the grasp of an eternal sin."

but when the sun rose it was scorched and withered away because it had no root.

But those, on the other hand, who were sown on that good soil, are those who listen to the Word, and welcome it, and bear fruit, thirty, sixty, or a hundredfold."

but she could not, for Herod was afraid of John because he knew that he was a just and holy man. So he kept him safe. When he listened to John he was much exercised, yet he found pleasure in listening to him.

"True, Master," she answered, "but the dogs under the table do pick up the children's crumbs."

Then Jesus charged them not to tell any one, but the more he charged them, the more they published it;

And he continued questioning them, "But you yourselves, Who do you say I am?" Peter in reply said to him, "You are Christ."

Jesus and his disciples, after leaving that place, passed through Galilee; but he was unwilling that any one should know it,

for he was explaining to his disciples that the Son of man was to be betrayed into the hands of men, and that they would put him to death, but that after he had been put to death, he would rise again after three days,

But they did not understand his words, and were afraid to ask him the meaning.
