Now Simon's mother-in-law lay sick of fever, and without delay they told him about her.

So he came and took her hand and raised her up. The fever left her at once, and she began to wait upon them.

"Here are my mother and my brothers! Whoever does the will of God, that one is my brother and sister and mother."

"My little daughter," he said, "is dying. I beseech you, come and lay your hands on her, that she may recover and live."

At once the fountain of her blood was dried up, and she felt in her body that she was cured of her complaint.

and the woman knowing what had happened to her, came in fear and trembling, and fell down before him, and told him all the truth.

Then he took the child's hand and said to her, "Talitha, cumi," that is to say, "Little girl, I am speaking to you; arise!"

He, however, repeatedly cautioned them not to let any one know about it, and directed them to give her something to eat.

Is not this the carpenter, the son of Mary, and the brother of James and Joses and Judas and Simon? And are not his sisters here with us?"

He even swore to her that whatever she asked, he would give it to her, up to half his kingdom.

So she came out and said to her mother, "What shall I ask for?" "The head of John the Baptist," she replied.

So she at once hurried in to the king and made her request, "I want you," she said, "to give me, without delay, the head of John the Baptist on a charger."

Then the king was exceedingly sorry; yet on account of his oaths and his guests he was unwilling to disappoint her.

And he went and beheaded John in prison, brought his head on a platter, and gave it to the young girl, and she gave it to her mother.

Send the people away so that they may go to the farms and villages about here, and buy themselves something to eat."

After he rose and left that place, he went away into the region of Tyre and Sidon. Here he went into a house and wished no one to know it but he could not be hid.

(the woman was a Greek, a Syro-phoenician by race), and again and again she begged him to cast the demon out of her daughter.

"Let the children be filled first," he said to her. "It is unseemly to take the children's bread and throw it to the dogs."

So she went home, and found the child lying in her bed and the demon departed.

"In solemn truth I tell you," he said, "there are some standing here who shall not taste death till they see the kingdom of God, come with power."

Here in their presence he was transfigured; and his clothes also became glistering with a radiant whiteness, such as no bleaching on earth could give.

"Master," said Peter, addressing Jesus, "it is good for us to be here. Let us put up three tents one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah."

"Moses," said they, "permitted a man to draw up a bill of separation and divorce her."

"Any man who divorces his wife and marries another woman commits adultery against her;

and if she divorces her husband and marries another man, she commits adultery."

Jesus sent two of his disciples and told them. "Go to that village in front of you, and immediately on entering it you will find a colt tied, upon which no man has ever sat; untie him and bring him here.

"But those tenants said to themselves. 'Here is the heir! Come, let us kill him, and the inheritance will be ours.'

The second married her, and died without offspring; the third likewise;

and the seven had her, and died without issue.

And last of all the woman too died. In the resurrection whose wife shall she be? For the seven had her as wife."

for they have all put in what they could spare out of their surplus, but she, out of her penury, has put in all that she possessed, her whole living."

"You see these mighty buildings? There shall not be left here one stone upon another which shall not be thrown down," he answered.

"At that time if any one tell you, 'See, here is Christ,' or 'See, there he is,' do not believe it;

"But when the tribulation is past, in those days the sun will be darkened and the moon will not shed her light,

"From the fig tree learn now her parable; as soon as ever her branches are full of sap and bursting into leaf, you know that summer is near.

So they began upbraiding her, but Jesus said: "Let her alone. Why are you troubling her?

I tell you in solemn truth that wherever the gospel is preached throughout the whole world, there what she has done shall be told in remembrance of her."

So they came to a place named Gethsemane, and he said to his disciples, "Sit down here while I pray."

and he said to them. "My soul is full of anguish, even unto death; wait here, and keep watch."

They were terrified, but he said to them. "Do not be terrified! You are seeking Jesus the Nazarene, who was crucified? He is risen; he is not here. See, the place where they laid him!

But they, although they heard that he was living and had been seen by her did not believe it.
