No one can go into a strong man's house and carry off his possessions without first tying up the strong man. Then he can ransack his house.

Jesus took him away from the crowd to be alone with him. Putting his fingers into the man's ears, he touched the man's tongue with saliva.

The man's hearing and speech were restored at once, and he began to talk normally.

Then Jesus placed his hands on the man's eyes again, and he saw clearly. His sight was restored, and he saw everything perfectly, even from a distance.

"Teacher, Moses wrote for us that if a man's brother dies and leaves a wife but no child, he should marry the widow and have children for his brother.

After they had listened to him, they were delighted and promised to give him money. So he began to look for a good opportunity to betray him.

When he arrived at the man's house, he allowed no one to go in with him except Peter, John, James, and the young girl's father and mother.

Now there were about 5,000 men. So he told his disciples, "Have them sit down in groups of about 50."

But when a stronger man than he attacks and defeats him, the stronger man strips off that man's armor in which he trusted and then divides his plunder.

He was always trying to satisfy his hunger with what fell from the rich man's table. Even the dogs used to come and lick his sores.

and asked him, "Teacher, Moses wrote for us that if a man's brother dies and leaves a wife but no child, the man should marry the widow and have children for his brother.

But Jesus said, "No more of this!" So he touched the wounded man's ear and healed him.

who were born, not merely in a genetic sense, nor from lust, nor from man's desire, but from the will of God.

Don't be amazed at this, because the time is approaching when everyone in their graves will hear the Son of Man's voice

But God's free gift is not like Adam's offense. For if many people died as the result of one man's offense, how much more have God's grace and the free gift given through the kindness of one man, Jesus the Messiah, been showered on many people!

Nor can the free gift be compared to what came through the man who sinned. For the sentence that followed one man's offense resulted in condemnation, but the free gift brought justification, even after many offenses.

For if, through one man, death ruled because of that man's offense, how much more will those who receive such overflowing grace and the gift of righteousness rule in life because of one man, Jesus the Messiah!

For just as through one man's disobedience many people were made sinners, so also through one man's obedience many people will be made righteous.
