By an inspiration of the Spirit he came to the temple, and when the parents of the child Jesus carried him in to perform the customary regulations of the law for him,

Now at that very hour she came up, and she offered praise to God and spoke of him to all who were on the outlook for the redemption of Jerusalem.

After spending the full number of days they came back, but the boy Jesus stayed behind in Jerusalem. His parents did not know of this;

Then, as they failed to find him, they came back to Jerusalem in search of him.

during the high priesthood of Annas and Caiaphas the word of God came to John the son of Zechariah in the desert;

To the crowds who came out to get baptized by him John said, "You brood of vipers, who told you to flee from the coming Wrath?

Taxgatherers also came to get baptized, and they said to him, "Teacher, what are we to do?"

and the holy Spirit descended in bodily form like a dove upon him; and a voice came from heaven, "Thou art my son, the Beloved, to-day have I become thy father."

From the Jordan Jesus came back full of the holy Spirit,

Then Jesus came back in the power of the Spirit to Galilee, and the news of him spread over all the surrounding country.

Then he came to Nazaret, where he had been brought up, and on the sabbath he entered the synagogue as was his custom. He stood up to read the lesson

and was handed the book of the prophet Isaiah; on opening the book he came upon the place where it was written,

All spoke well of him and marvelled at the gracious words that came from his lips; they said, "Is this not Joseph's son?"

I tell you for a fact, In Israel there were many widows during the days of Elijah, when the sky was closed for three years and six months, when a great famine came over all the land:

they were astounded at his teaching, for his word came with authority.

Then amazement came over them all; they talked it over among themselves, saying, "What does this mean? He orders the unclean spirits with authority and power, and they come out!"

When day broke he went away out to a lonely spot, but the crowds made inquiries about him, came to where he was, and tried to keep him from leaving them.

Then they made signals to their mates in the other boat to come and assist them. They came and filled both the boats, till they began to sink.

Some men came up carrying a man who was paralysed; they tried to carry him inside and lay him in front of Jesus,

With them he came down the hill and stood on a level spot. There was a great company of his disciples with him, and a large multitude of people from all Judaea, from Jerusalem, and from the coast of Tyre and Sidon, who had come to hear him and to get cured of their diseases.

He is like a man engaged in building a house, who dug deep down and laid his foundation on the rock; when a flood came, the river dashed against that house but could not shake it, for it had been well built.

Then turning to the woman he said to Simon, "You see this woman? When I came into your house, you never gave me water for my feet, while she has wet my feet with her tears and wiped them with her hair;

you never gave me a kiss, while ever since she came in she has kept pressing kisses on my feet;

During the voyage he fell asleep. But when a gale of wind came down on the lake and they were being swamped and in peril,

and the daemons came out of the man and went into the swine; the drove rushed down the steep slope into the lake and were suffocated.

The people came out to see what had occurred and when they reached Jesus they discovered the man whom the daemons had left, seated at the feet of Jesus, clothed and sane. That frightened them.

A man called Jairus came, who was a president of the synagogue, and falling at the feet of Jesus entreated him to come to his house,

came up behind him and touched the tassel of his robe. Her hemorrhage instantly ceased.

So when the woman saw she had not escaped notice, she came trembling, and falling down before him she told before all the people why she had touched him and how she had been instantly cured.

He was still speaking when someone came from the house of the synagogue-president to say, "Your daughter is dead. Do not trouble the teacher any further."

Then the apostles came back and described all they had done to Jesus. He took them and retired in private to a town called Bethsaida,

Now as the day began to decline the twelve came up to him and said, "Send the crowd off to lodge in the villages and farms around and get provisions there, for here we are in a desert place."

As he spoke, a cloud came and overshadowed them. They were awestruck as they passed into the cloud,

but a voice came from the cloud, "This is my Son, my Chosen one; listen to him."

Next day, when they came down the hill, a large crowd met him.

The seventy came back with joy. "Lord," they said, "the very daemons obey us in your name."

So did a Levite who came to the spot; he looked at him but passed on the opposite side.

However a Samaritan traveller came to where he was and felt pity when he saw him;

Now Martha was so busy attending to them that she grew worried; she came up and said, "Lord, is it all one to you that my sister has left me to do all the work alone? Come, tell her to lend me a hand."

It was at this time that some people came to tell him about the Galileans whose blood Pilate had mingled with their sacrifices.

And he told this parable. "A man had a fig tree planted in his vineyard; he came in search of fruit on it but he found none.

Just then some Pharisees came up to tell him, "Get away from here, for Herod intends to kill you."

But when he came to his senses he said, 'How many hired men of my father have more than enough to eat, and here am I perishing of hunger!

Now his elder son was out in the field, and as he came near the house he heard music and dancing;

This angered him, and he would not go in. His father came out and tried to appease him,

they were eating, drinking, marrying and being married, till the day Noah entered the ark ??then came the deluge and destroyed them all.

He came down at once and welcomed him gladly.

However he secured the royal power and came home. Then he ordered the servants to be called who had been given the money, that he might find out what business they had done.

The first came up saying, 'Your five pounds has made other fifty, sir.'

Then the second came and said, 'Your five pounds has made twenty-five, sir.'

Then the next came and said, 'Here is your five pounds, sir; I kept it safe in a napkin,

Why then did you not put my money into the bank, so that I could have got it with interest when I came back?'

and could not find his body, but they came to tell us they had actually seen a vision of angels who declared he was alive.
