All who heard about him took it to heart, saying, “What then will this child become?” For, indeed, the Lord’s hand was with him.

This first registration took place while Quirinius was governing Syria.

Simeon took Him up in his arms, praised God, and said:

So he took Him up and showed Him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time.

So he took Him to Jerusalem, had Him stand on the pinnacle of the temple, and said to Him, “If You are the Son of God, throw Yourself down from here.

Then He said to them, “No doubt you will quote this proverb to Me: ‘Doctor, heal yourself. So all we’ve heard that took place in Capernaum, do here in Your hometown also.’”

For he and all those with him were amazed at the catch of fish they took,

how he entered the house of God, and took and ate the sacred bread, which is not lawful for any but the priests to eat? He even gave some to those who were with him.”

For I too am a man placed under authority, having soldiers under my command. I say to this one, ‘Go!’ and he goes; and to another, ‘Come!’ and he comes; and to my slave, ‘Do this!’ and he does it.”

So He took her by the hand and called out, “Child, get up!”

When the apostles returned, they reported to Jesus all that they had done. He took them along and withdrew privately to a town called Bethsaida.

Then He took the five loaves and the two fish, and looking up to heaven, He blessed and broke them. He kept giving them to the disciples to set before the crowd.

About eight days after these words, He took along Peter, John, and James and went up on the mountain to pray.

But Jesus, knowing the thoughts of their hearts, took a little child and had him stand next to Him.

Jesus took up the question and said: “A man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho and fell into the hands of robbers. They stripped him, beat him up, and fled, leaving him half dead.

He went over to him and bandaged his wounds, pouring on olive oil and wine. Then he put him on his own animal, brought him to an inn, and took care of him.

The next day he took out two denarii, gave them to the innkeeper, and said, ‘Take care of him. When I come back I’ll reimburse you for whatever extra you spend.’

Fools! Didn’t He who made the outside make the inside too?

One of the experts in the law answered Him, “Teacher, when You say these things You insult us too.”

It’s like a mustard seed that a man took and sowed in his garden. It grew and became a tree, and the birds of the sky nested in its branches.”

It’s like yeast that a woman took and mixed into 50 pounds of flour until it spread through the entire mixture.”

But they kept silent. He took the man, healed him, and sent him away.

The Pharisee took his stand and was praying like this: ‘God, I thank You that I’m not like other people —greedy, unrighteous, adulterers, or even like this tax collector.

Then He took the Twelve aside and told them, “Listen! We are going up to Jerusalem. Everything that is written through the prophets about the Son of Man will be accomplished.

“Today salvation has come to this house,” Jesus told him, “because he too is a son of Abraham.

He sent yet another slave, but they beat that one too, treated him shamefully, and sent him away empty-handed.

And he sent yet a third, but they wounded this one too and threw him out.

Now there were seven brothers. The first took a wife and died without children.

and the third took her. In the same way, all seven died and left no children.

Finally, the woman died too.

Then He took a cup, and after giving thanks, He said, “Take this and share it among yourselves.

And He took bread, gave thanks, broke it, gave it to them, and said, “This is My body, which is given for you. Do this in remembrance of Me.”

In the same way He also took the cup after supper and said, “This cup is the new covenant established by My blood; it is shed for you.

When a servant saw him sitting in the firelight, and looked closely at him, she said, “This man was with Him too.”

After a little while, someone else saw him and said, “You’re one of them too!”

“Man, I am not!” Peter said.

It was as He reclined at the table with them that He took the bread, blessed and broke it, and gave it to them.

and He took it and ate in their presence.
