and saying, "Be careful not to tell any one, but go and show yourself to the Priest, and for your purification present the offerings that Moses appointed as evidence for them."
But the man, when he went out, began to tell every one and to publish the matter abroad, so that it was no longer possible for Jesus to go openly into any town; but He had to remain outside in unfrequented places, where people came to Him from all parts.

This man lived among the tombs, nor could any one now secure him even with a chain;

when there came one of the Wardens of the Synagogue--he was called Jair--who, on beholding Him, threw himself at His feet,
And He allowed no one to accompany Him except Peter and the brothers James and John.
Others asserted that He was Elijah. Others again said, "He is a Prophet, like one of the great Prophets."
Then He rose and left that place and went into the neighbourhood of Tyre and Sidon. Here He entered a house and wished no one to know it, but He could not escape observation.
Then Jesus charged them to tell no one; but the more He charged them, all the more did they spread the news far and wide.
they explained His words to one another by saying, "We have no bread!"
"John the Baptist," they replied, "but others say Elijah, and others, that it is one of the Prophets."

As they were coming down from the mountain, He very strictly forbad them to tell any one what they had seen "until after the Son of Man has risen from among the dead."
So they kept the matter to themselves, although frequently asking one another what was meant by the rising from the dead.
"Rabbi," answered one of the crowd, "I have brought you my son. He has a dumb spirit in him;
Departing thence they passed through Galilee, and He was unwilling that any one should know it;
But they remained silent; for on the way they had debated with one another who was the chief of them.

"Whoever for my sake receives one such young child as this, receives me; and whoever receives me, receives not so much me as Him who sent me."
"You should not have tried to hinder him," replied Jesus, "for there is no one who will use my name to perform a miracle and be able the next minute to speak evil of me.
"And whoever shall occasion the fall of one of these little ones who believe, he would be better off if, with a millstone round his neck, he were lying at the bottom of the sea.

"Why do you call me good?" asked Jesus in reply; "there is no one truly good except One--that is, God.
Then Jesus looked at him and loved him, and said, "One thing is lacking in you: go, sell all you possess and give the proceeds to the poor, and you shall have riches in Heaven; and come and be a follower of mine."
They were astonished beyond measure, and said to one another, "Who then *can* be saved?"

At vintage-time he sent one of his servants to receive from the vine-dressers a share of the grapes.
He had still one left whom he could send, a dearly-loved son: him last of all he sent, saying, "'They will treat my son with respect.'

Then one of the Scribes, who had heard them disputing and well knew that Jesus had given them an answer to the point, and a forcible one, came forward and asked Him, "Which is the chief of all the Commandments?"
"The chief Commandment," replied Jesus, "is this: 'Hear, O Israel! The Lord our God is one Lord;
Perceiving that the Scribe had answered wisely Jesus said to him, "You are not far from the Kingdom of God." No one from that time forward ventured to put any question to Him.

As He was leaving the Temple, one of His disciples exclaimed, "Look, Rabbi, what wonderful stones! what wonderful buildings!"
"You see all these great buildings?" Jesus replied; "not one stone will be left here upon another--not thrown down."
So Jesus began to say to them: "Take care that no one misleads you.
and but for the fact that the Lord has cut short those days, no one would escape; but for the sake of His own People whom He has chosen for Himself He has cut short the days.
"At that time if any one says to you, 'See, here is the Christ!' or 'See, He is there!' do not believe it.
"But as to that day or the exact time no one knows--not even the angels in Heaven, nor the Son, but the Father alone.

But Judas Iscariot, already mentioned as one of the Twelve, went to the High Priests to betray Jesus to them.
And while they were at table Jesus said, "I solemnly tell you that one of you will betray me--one who is eating with me."
They were filled with sorrow, and began asking Him, one by one, "Not I, is it?"
"It is one of the Twelve," He replied; "he who is dipping his fingers in the dish with me.
Immediately, while He was still speaking, Judas, one of the Twelve, came and with him a crowd of men armed with swords and cudgels, sent by the High Priests and Scribes and Elders.
Now the betrayer had arranged a signal with them. "The one I kiss," he said, "is the man: lay hold of him, and take him safely away."
