Look at the birds of the sky: They don’t sow or reap or gather into barns, yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Aren’t you worth more than they?

Aren’t two sparrows sold for a penny? Yet not one of them falls to the ground without your Father’s consent.

And His sisters, aren’t they all with us? So where does He get all these things?”

They tie up heavy loads that are hard to carry and put them on people’s shoulders, but they themselves aren’t willing to lift a finger to move them.

Isn’t this the carpenter, the son of Mary, and the brother of James, Joses, Judas, and Simon? And aren’t His sisters here with us?” So they were offended by Him.

For each tree is known by its own fruit. Figs aren’t gathered from thornbushes, or grapes picked from a bramble bush.

Aren’t five sparrows sold for two pennies? Yet not one of them is forgotten in God’s sight.

Consider the ravens: They don’t sow or reap; they don’t have a storeroom or a barn; yet God feeds them. Aren’t you worth much more than the birds?

Then one of the criminals hanging there began to yell insults at Him: “Aren’t You the Messiah? Save Yourself and us!”

So they asked him, “Why then do you baptize if you aren’t the Messiah, or Elijah, or the Prophet?”

You aren’t greater than our father Jacob, are You? He gave us the well and drank from it himself, as did his sons and livestock.”

“You aren’t from Galilee too, are you?” they replied. “Investigate and you will see that no prophet arises from Galilee.”

The Jews responded to Him, “Aren’t we right in saying that You’re a Samaritan and have a demon?”

The Jews replied, “You aren’t 50 years old yet, and You’ve seen Abraham?”

Some of the Pharisees who were with Him heard these things and asked Him, “We aren’t blind too, are we?”

Others were saying, “These aren’t the words of someone demon-possessed. Can a demon open the eyes of the blind?”

“We aren’t stoning You for a good work,” the Jews answered, “but for blasphemy, because You—being a man—make Yourself God.”

“Aren’t there 12 hours in a day?” Jesus answered. “If anyone walks during the day, he doesn’t stumble, because he sees the light of this world.

Then the slave girl who was the doorkeeper said to Peter, “You aren’t one of this man’s disciples too, are you?”

“I am not!” he said.

Now Simon Peter was standing and warming himself. They said to him, “You aren’t one of His disciples too, are you?”

He denied it and said, “I am not!”

And they were astounded and amazed, saying, “Look, aren’t all these who are speaking Galileans?

Aren’t you the Egyptian who raised a rebellion some time ago and led 4,000 Assassins into the wilderness?”

just as Sarah obeyed Abraham, calling him lord. You have become her children when you do what is good and are not frightened by anything alarming.
