looking to Jesus the Author and Finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and sat down at the right of the throne of God.

Jesus

The book of the genealogy of Jesus Christ, the son of David, the son of Abraham.

Therefore being a prophet, and knowing that God had sworn with an oath to him that of the fruit of his loins, according to the flesh, He would raise up Christ to sit upon his throne,

Of this man's seed God has raised to Israel, according to His promise, a Savior, Jesus;

about His Son, Jesus Christ our Lord, who was made of the seed of David according to the flesh,

And one of the elders said to me, Do not weep. Behold, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has prevailed to open the book and to loose the seven seals of it.

Raised

And He said to them, So it is written, and so it behoved Christ to suffer and to rise from the dead the third day,

whom God raised up, having loosed the pains of death, because it was not possible that He should be held by it.

And, brothers, I declare to you the gospel which I preached to you, which also you have received, and in which you stand;

According

in a day when God shall judge the secrets of men by Jesus Christ according to my gospel.

Now to Him who is able to establish you according to my gospel, and the preaching of Jesus Christ according to the revelation of the mystery, having been unvoiced during eternal times;

to which He called you by our gospel, to the obtaining of the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.

according to the glorious gospel of the blessed God, which was committed to my trust.

To this I am ordained a preacher and an apostle (I speak the truth in Christ, I do not lie), a teacher of the nations, in faith and truth.
