said he, how you take the least notice of this to any man: but go, show your self to the priest, and offer for your cure what Moses commanded, that this may serve as a testimony against them.

is it not as easy to say to the paralytic, thy sins are forgiven: as to say, arise, and take up your bed and walk?

'tis I command you, take up thy bed, and go to your home.

instantly he arose, took up the bed, and went out in the presence of them all; insomuch that they were all amazed, and glorified God, saying, we never saw any thing like this.

upon this the Pharisees withdrew, and immediately enter'd into a conspiracy with the Herodians to take away his life.

for having healed abundance of people, all that were afflicted with any grievous distemper pressed upon him to touch him.

He began again to teach by the sea-side: but there was so great a crowd gathered about him, that he was oblig'd to go into a ship, where he sat down, and stay'd on board while the people stood on the shore.

for said she, if I do but touch his clothes, I shall be cured.

they were so marvellously incredulous. so that He went all about to teach in the neighbouring villages.

he order'd them to take nothing for their journey, but a single staff, no scrip, no bread, nor money in their purse:

though the fragments of bread they took up, with what remain'd of the fishes, amounted to twelve baskets full;

for they all saw him, and were greatly terrified. but at the instant Jesus spoke to them, and said, take courage, it is I, don't be afraid.

and to whatever cities, towns, or villages he went, they expos'd the sick in the publick streets, entreating him, they might but touch the border of his garment; for as many as did so, were recover'd.

the Pharisees, and Scribes therefore ask'd Jesus, why don't your disciples observe the tradition of the antients? why do they take their meals without washing their hands?

Jesus therefore said to her, let the children first be satisfy'd; for it would not be decent to take the children's bread, and throw it to puppys.

Now the disciples had forgot to take bread, and had but one loaf aboard with them.

they said to one another, this is because we did not take bread: which Jesus perceiving,

when I divided the five loaves among five thousand people, how many baskets full of fragments did you take away? they answer'd, twelve.

Afterwards Jesus went to Bethsaida, where they presented to him a blind man, whom they entreated Jesus to touch.

but who, said he, do you take me to be? Peter answered, you are the Messiah:

and this he said in such an undisguised manner, that Peter took him aside, and pretended to reprimand him.

Six days after Jesus took Peter, James and John, and accompanied them up a high mountain in private; and was transfigured in their presence.

then Jesus looking upon him with a favourable eye, said, there is one thing still to be done; go, sell all your estate, and give it to the poor, and you shall have treasure in heaven; then come, take up the cross, and follow me.

Jesus therefore stood still, and ordered him to be called; so they called to the blind man, and said, take courage, rise, he calls you.

thereupon Jesus said to the fig-tree, "no one shall ever eat any fruit of yours." and his disciples took notice of it.

when they were come, they said to him, master, we know that you are sincere, that you are not influenced by any one, for you have no regard to the person of men: but teach us the way of God according to truth. now should we pay tribute to Cesar, or no? shall we pay, or shall we not pay?

Jesus answer'd by saying, take care not to let any one impose upon you;

then the brother shall betray his brother to death, and the father his son: children shall prosecute their parents, and be the instruments to take away their lives:

he that is upon the battlements let him not descend into the house, nor enter therein to take any thing away: let

When they had been eating, Jesus took bread, and having given thanks, he brake it, and gave it to them, and said, take it, this represents my body.

and he took the cup, and when he had given thanks, he gave it to them, and they all drank of it.

but he took with him Peter, James, and John. then he began to be in a great consternation and anguish of mind. and he said to them; my soul is exceeding sorrowful,

saying, father, all things are possible to thee, take away this cup from me: nevertheless, not my will, but thine be done.

after that he came a third time, and said to them, sleep on now and take your rest. 'tis done, the time is come, and the son of man is to be betrayed into the hands of sinners.

Then the soldiers took Jesus away into the hall, call'd Pretorium; and summon'd their whole company together.

there they offered him myrrhed wine to drink, but he did not take it.

after they had crucified him, they shared his garments, by casting lots for them: to determine what each of them should take.

then one of the soldiers ran and dipp'd a spunge in vinegar, which he fastned to a stick, and offered him to drink. now let us, said they, see whether Elias will come to take him down.

and Mary the mother of Joses, took notice where he was laid.
