We sailed away from Philippi after the days of Unleavened Bread, and within five days we came to the others in Troas, where we stayed for seven days.

But the president of the synagogue, indignant because Jesus had healed on the Sabbath, said to the crowd, "There are six days on which work should be done! So come and be healed on those days, and not on the Sabbath day."

where for forty days he endured temptations from the devil. He ate nothing during those days, and when they were completed, he was famished.

Then he said to the disciples, "The days are coming when you will desire to see one of the days of the Son of Man, and you will not see it.
