Again the devil takes him to a very high mountain, and shews him all the kingdoms of the world, and their glory,

Ye are the light of the world: a city situated on the top of a mountain cannot be hid.

so that that should be fulfilled which was spoken through the prophet, saying, I will open my mouth in parables; I will utter things hidden from the world's foundation.

and the field is the world; and the good seed, these are the sons of the kingdom, but the darnel are the sons of the evil one;

For what does a man profit, if he should gain the whole world and suffer the loss of his soul? or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?

Woe to the world because of offences! For it must needs be that offences come; yet woe to that man by whom the offence comes!

for then shall there be great tribulation, such as has not been from the beginning of the world until now, nor ever shall be;

Then shall the King say to those on his right hand, Come, blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the world's foundation:

Verily I say to you, Wheresoever these glad tidings may be preached in the whole world, that also which this woman has done shall be spoken of for a memorial of her.
