"Teacher, which is the great commandment in the Law?"

and laid it in his own new tomb, which he had hewn out of the rock; and he rolled a great stone to the door of the tomb, and departed.

Pilate said to them, "You have a guard; go your way, make it as secure as you know how."

So they went and made the tomb secure by sealing the stone and setting a guard.

And behold, there was a great earthquake; for an angel of the Lord descended from heaven, and came and rolled back the stone from the door, and sat on it.

and Jerusalem and Idumea and beyond the Jordan and from around Tyre and Sidon, a great multitude, when they heard how many things he was doing, came to him.

And he told his disciples to have a small boat ready for him because of the crowd, lest they should crush him.

Immediately the girl stood up and walked (she was twelve years of age). And they were overcome with great amazement.

When Jesus went ashore he saw a great crowd, and he had compassion on them, because they were like sheep without a shepherd. So he began to teach them many things.

Immediately he made his disciples get into the boat and go before him to the other side, to Bethsaida, while he dismissed the crowd.

When he had left the crowd and entered the house, his disciples asked him about this parable.

In those days, when again a great crowd had gathered, and they had nothing to eat, Jesus called his disciples to him, and said to them,

And when they came to the disciples, they saw a great crowd around them, and scribes arguing with them.

And the crowd came up and began to ask Pilate to do as he had always done for them.

When they could not find a way to bring him in, because of the crowd, they went up on the roof and let him down with his bed through the tiles into the midst before Jesus.

Then Levi made him a great feast in his house; and there were a great number of tax collectors and others sitting at table with them.
