Jesus said to them, “Watch out and be on your guard against the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees.”

How is it that you do not see that I was not speaking about bread? Be on your guard against the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees."

Then they understood that he had not told them to be on guard against the yeast in bread, but against the teaching of the Pharisees and Sadducees.

From that time on, Jesus began to show his disciples that he would have to go to Jerusalem and suffer a great deal because of the elders, the high priests, and the scribes. Then he would be killed, but on the third day he would be raised.

While he was still speaking, a bright cloud overshadowed them, and a voice from the cloud said, "This is my one dear Son, in whom I take great delight. Listen to him!"

And at these words the disciples went down on their faces in great fear.

And when they came to the crowd, a man came to him, falling on his knees before him, and saying,

Lord have mercy on my son: for he is off his head, and is in great pain; and frequently he goes falling into the fire, and frequently into the water.

Jesus replied [to the crowd], "You perverse generation of faithless people! How long must I be with you [i.e., before you understand]? How long do I have to be patient with you? Bring the sick boy to me."

But whoso shall cause one of these little ones that believe on me to stumble, it is profitable for him that a great millstone should be hanged about his neck, and that he should be sunk in the depth of the sea.

Then his master called him and said to him, ‘You wicked and contemptible slave, I forgave all that [great] debt of yours because you begged me.

so that his lord in great displeasure delivered him to the jayler till he should pay the whole debt.

And great multitudes followed him; and he healed them there.

But when the young man heard that saying, he went away sorrowful: for he had great possessions.

Then Jesus said to His disciples, Truly I say to you that a rich man will with great difficulty enter into the kingdom of Heaven.

On hearing this, the disciples exclaimed in great astonishment: "Who then can possibly be saved?"

But a great number who are first will be last, and some who are last will be first.

But Jesus called them unto him, and said, Ye know that the princes of the Gentiles exercise dominion over them, and they that are great exercise authority upon them.

But it shall not be so among you: but whosoever will be great among you, let him be your minister;

No, whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant, and whoever wants to take the first place among you, must be your slave;

And as they departed from Jericho, a great multitude followed him.

But the crowd rebuked them, that they might be silent. But they cried out the more, saying, Have mercy on us, Lord, Son of David.

Saying to them, Go into the little town in front of you, and straight away you will see an ass with a cord round her neck, and a young one with her; let them loose and come with them to me.

And a very great multitude spread their garments in the way; others cut down branches from the trees, and strawed them in the way.

while the crowd that were marching before, and behind, cried out, "Hosanna to the son of David: blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord, Hosanna, Hosanna."

And the crowd said, This is Jesus the prophet, from Nazareth of Galilee.

And Jesus went into the temple of God, and drove out all that were selling and buying in the court of the temple, and threw down the tables of the money-changers, and the seats of them that sold doves:

but if we should say, Of men, we fear the crowd, for all hold John for a prophet.

But seeking to lay hands on Him, they feared the crowd, because they held Him for a prophet.

They sent to him their disciples along with the Herodians, saying, "Teacher, we know that you are truthful, and teach the way of God in accordance with the truth. You do not court anyone's favor because you show no partiality.

All the crowd heard this, and were filled with amazement at His teaching.

Master, which is the great commandment in the law?

And Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind: this is the first and great command.

This is the first and great commandment.

And no one was able to give him an answer, and so great was their fear of him, that from that day no one put any more questions to him.

Then Jesus spoke to the crowd and to His disciples,

They make hard laws and put great weights on men's backs; but they themselves will not put a finger to them

They love the [special] greetings they receive at the open shopping markets and to be addressed as 'Rabbi' [Note: This word signified 'great' or 'master'].

And the great of you shall be your deacon.

Woe to you scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye devour widows' houses, and for pretence, praying at great lengths; for this shall ye receive more distingnished judgment.

"Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees--hypocrites!--because you cleanse the outside of the cup and the dish, but inside they are full of greed and self-indulgence!

Because lawlessness is increased, the love of most people will grow cold.

For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be.

For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.

"But immediately after the terrible trouble of those days, [i.e., the next major event on God's calendar], the sun will become dark, and [therefore] the moon will not [be able to] shed its [reflected] light. The stars will fall from the sky and the forces of the heavens will be shaken [Note: From the description of these same events in Luke 21:25-26, it is possible that this is figurative language for great calamities happening on the earth].

And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.

And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.

Keep guard then, for you do not know the day on which your Master is coming.

But know this, that if the master of the house had known in what watch the thief was coming, he would have been on his guard, and would not have allowed his house to be broken into.

His lord said to him, Well done, good and true servant: you have been true in a small thing, I will give you control over great things: take your part in the joy of your lord.

His lord said to him, Well done, good and true servant: you have been true in a small thing, I will give you control over great things: take your part in the joy of your lord.

Then were gathered together the chief priests, and the elders of the people, unto the court of the high priest, who was called Caiaphas;

There came to him a woman having a bottle of perfume of great price, and she put the perfume on his head when he was seated at table.

“This might have been sold for a great deal and given to the poor.”

In great grief they began to say to him, one by one: "Can it be I, Master?"

And, taking with him, Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, he began to be grieved and to be in great distress.

And while he yet spake, lo, Judas, one of the twelve, came, and with him a great multitude with swords and staves, from the chief priests and elders of the people.

At that moment Jesus said to the crowd, "Have you come out with swords and clubs to arrest me like you would an outlaw? Day after day I sat teaching in the temple courts, yet you did not arrest me.

But Peter followed him afar off, unto the court of the high priest, and entered in, and sat with the officers, to see the end.

Now Peter was sitting without in the court: and a maid came unto him, saying, Thou also wast with Jesus the Galilaean.

But, to Pilate's great astonishment, he would not answer him a single word.

Now at the feast the governor was accustomed to release one prisoner to the crowd, whom they would.

For he knew that they had turned Him over to the court out of envy.

The High Priests, however, and the Elders urged the crowd to ask for Barabbas and to demand the death of Jesus.

And Pilate, seeing that it availed nothing, but that rather a tumult was arising, having taken water, washed his hands before the crowd, saying, I am guiltless of the blood of this righteous one: see ye to it.

And sitting down, they kept guard over him there.

and about the ninth hour Jesus cried out with a great voice, saying, 'Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani?' that is, 'My God, my God, why didst Thou forsake me?'

And Jesus having again cried with a great voice, yielded the spirit;

But the centurion, and they who were with him on guard over Jesus, seeing the earthquake and the things that took place, feared greatly, saying, Truly this man was Son of God.

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

pray therefore order a guard to be posted at the sepulchre till the third day, for fear his disciples should come and steal him away, and then tell the people, "he is risen from the dead:" for this last imposture would be of worse consequence than the first.

Pilate said unto them, Ye have a guard: go, make it as'sure as ye can.

So they went, and made the sepulchre sure, sealing the stone, the guard being with them.

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

The guards shook, paralyzed with fear [at the sight] of him and became like dead men [pale and immobile].

And they departed quickly from the sepulchre with fear and great joy; and did run to bring his disciples word.

Now while they were going, behold, some of the guard came into the city, and told unto the chief priests all the things that were come to pass.

And a voice came from heaven: "You are my one dear Son; in you I take great delight."

and the unclean spirit having torn him, and having cried with a great voice, came forth out of him,

And in the morning, rising up a great while before day, he went out, and departed into a solitary place, and there prayed.

And a great number had come together, so that there was no longer room for them, no, not even about the door: and he gave them teaching.

And when they could not come nigh unto him for the crowd, they uncovered the roof where he was: and when they had broken it up, they let down the bed whereon the sick of the palsy lay.

And he went out again by the sea, and all the crowd came to him, and he taught them.

And it came about that he was seated at meat in his house, and a number of tax-farmers and sinners were at table with Jesus and his disciples: for there were a great number of them, and they came after him.

But He said to the man with the withered hand, "Get up in the crowd."

But Jesus withdrew himself with his disciples to the sea: and a great multitude from Galilee followed him, and from Judaea,

And from Jerusalem, and from Idumaea, and from beyond Jordan; and they about Tyre and Sidon, a great multitude, when they had heard what great things he did, came unto him.

And he spake to his disciples, that a little boat should wait on him because of the crowd, lest they should throng him:

For he had made such a great number well that all those who were diseased were falling down before him for the purpose of touching him.

And again a crowd comes together, so that they cannot even eat bread.

And a crowd sat around him. And they said to him, Behold, thy mother and thy brethren seek thee without.

And he began again to teach by the sea side: and there was gathered unto him a great multitude, so that he entered into a ship, and sat in the sea; and the whole multitude was by the sea on the land.

but the cares of this life, the deceitful love of riches, and a crowd of different passions, stifle the word, and it becomes unfruitful.

But when it is sown, it groweth up, and becometh greater than all herbs, and shooteth out great branches; so that the fowls of the air may lodge under the shadow of it.

and having sent away the crowd, they take him with them, as he was, in the ship. But other ships also were with him.

And there arose a great storm of wind, and the waves beat into the ship, so that it was now full.

And he arose, and rebuked the wind, and said unto the sea, Peace, be still. And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm.

The wind fell, and there ensued a great calm. Then he said to them. "Why are you so afraid? Have you still no faith?"

And they feared with great fear, and said one to another, Who then is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?

And seeing Jesus a great way off, he ran to Him, and worshiped Him;
