"You have heard that it was said, 'Love your neighbor' and 'hate your enemy.'

When you fast, put oil on your head and wash your face,

Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his glory was clothed like one of these!

The rain fell, the flood came, and the winds beat against that house, and it collapsed; it was utterly destroyed!"

He stretched out his hand and touched him saying, "I am willing. Be clean!" Immediately his leprosy was cleansed.

When Jesus heard this he was amazed and said to those who followed him, "I tell you the truth, I have not found such faith in anyone in Israel!

Then Jesus said to the centurion, "Go; just as you believed, it will be done for you." And the servant was healed at that hour.

When it was evening, many demon-possessed people were brought to him. He drove out the spirits with a word, and healed all who were sick.

In this way what was spoken by Isaiah the prophet was fulfilled: "He took our weaknesses and carried our diseases."

And a great storm developed on the sea so that the waves began to swamp the boat. But he was asleep.

But he said to them, "Why are you cowardly, you people of little faith?" Then he got up and rebuked the winds and the sea, and it was dead calm.

When he came to the other side, to the region of the Gadarenes, two demon-possessed men coming from the tombs met him. They were extremely violent, so that no one was able to pass by that way.

A large herd of pigs was feeding some distance from them.

As Jesus was having a meal in Matthew's house, many tax collectors and sinners came and ate with Jesus and his disciples.

As he was saying these things, a ruler came, bowed low before him, and said, "My daughter has just died, but come and lay your hand on her and she will live."

But when Jesus turned and saw her he said, "Have courage, daughter! Your faith has made you well." And the woman was healed from that hour.

As they were going away, a man who could not talk and was demon-possessed was brought to him.

After the demon was cast out, the man who had been mute spoke. The crowds were amazed and said, "Never has anything like this been seen in Israel!"

Yes, Father, for this was your gracious will.

how he entered the house of God and they ate the sacred bread, which was against the law for him or his companions to eat, but only for the priests?

A man was there who had a withered hand. And they asked Jesus, "Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath?" so that they could accuse him.

Then he said to the man, "Stretch out your hand." He stretched it out and it was restored, as healthy as the other.

This fulfilled what was spoken by Isaiah the prophet:

Then they brought to him a demon-possessed man who was blind and mute. Jesus healed him so that he could speak and see.

For just as Jonah was in the belly of the huge fish for three days and three nights, so the Son of Man will be in the heart of the earth for three days and three nights.

While Jesus was still speaking to the crowds, his mother and brothers came and stood outside, asking to speak to him.

Other seeds fell on rocky ground where they did not have much soil. They sprang up quickly because the soil was not deep.

When anyone hears the word about the kingdom and does not understand it, the evil one comes and snatches what was sown in his heart; this is the seed sown along the path.

But as for the seed sown on good soil, this is the person who hears the word and understands. He bears fruit, yielding a hundred, sixty, or thirty times what was sown."

But while everyone was sleeping, an enemy came and sowed weeds among the wheat and went away.

This fulfilled what was spoken by the prophet: "I will open my mouth in parables, I will announce what has been hidden from the foundation of the world."

"Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a net that was cast into the sea that caught all kinds of fish.

When it was full, they pulled it ashore, sat down, and put the good fish into containers and threw the bad away.

His head was brought on a platter and given to the girl, and she brought it to her mother.

And after he sent the crowds away, he went up the mountain by himself to pray. When evening came, he was there alone.

Meanwhile the boat, already far from land, was taking a beating from the waves because the wind was against it.

As the night was ending, Jesus came to them walking on the sea.

"Why do your disciples disobey the tradition of the elders? For they don't wash their hands when they eat."

So he answered, "I was sent only to the lost sheep of the house of Israel."

Then Jesus answered her, "Woman, your faith is great! Let what you want be done for you." And her daughter was healed from that hour.

As a result, the crowd was amazed when they saw the mute speaking, the crippled healthy, the lame walking, and the blind seeing, and they praised the God of Israel.

How could you not understand that I was not speaking to you about bread? But beware of the yeast of the Pharisees and Sadducees!"

Then he instructed his disciples not to tell anyone that he was the Christ.

And he was transfigured before them. His face shone like the sun, and his clothes became white as light.

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!"

When they looked up, all they saw was Jesus alone.

Then the disciples understood that he was speaking to them about John the Baptist.

Then Jesus rebuked the demon and it came out of him, and the boy was healed from that moment.

He told them, "It was because of your little faith. I tell you the truth, if you have faith the size of a mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, 'Move from here to there,' and it will move; nothing will be impossible for you."

As he began settling his accounts, a man who owed ten thousand talents was brought to him.

Because he was not able to repay it, the lord ordered him to be sold, along with his wife, children, and whatever he possessed, and repayment to be made.

Jesus said to them, "Moses permitted you to divorce your wives because of your hard hearts, but from the beginning it was not this way.

But when the young man heard this he went away sorrowful, for he was very rich.

When it was about nine o'clock in the morning, he went out again and saw others standing around in the marketplace without work.

When it was evening the owner of the vineyard said to his manager, 'Call the workers and give the pay starting with the last hired until the first.'

As Jesus was going up to Jerusalem, he took the twelve aside privately and said to them on the way,

Two blind men were sitting by the road. When they heard that Jesus was passing by, they shouted, "Have mercy on us, Lord, Son of David!"

This took place to fulfill what was spoken by the prophet:

As he entered Jerusalem the whole city was thrown into an uproar, saying, "Who is this?"

Now early in the morning, as he returned to the city, he was hungry.

Jesus answered them, "I tell you the truth, if you have faith and do not doubt, not only will you do what was done to the fig tree, but even if you say to this mountain, 'Be lifted up and thrown into the sea,' it will happen.

Now after Jesus entered the temple courts, the chief priests and elders of the people came up to him as he was teaching and said, "By what authority are you doing these things, and who gave you this authority?"

"Listen to another parable: There was a landowner who planted a vineyard. He put a fence around it, dug a pit for its winepress, and built a watchtower. Then he leased it to tenant farmers and went on a journey.

When the harvest time was near, he sent his slaves to the tenants to collect his portion of the crop.

When the chief priests and the Pharisees heard his parables, they realized that he was speaking about them.

The king was furious! He sent his soldiers, and they put those murderers to death and set their city on fire.

And those slaves went out into the streets and gathered all they found, both bad and good, and the wedding hall was filled with guests.

But when the king came in to see the wedding guests, he saw a man there who was not wearing wedding clothes.

Now as for the resurrection of the dead, have you not read what was spoken to you by God,

No one was able to answer him a word, and from that day on no one dared to question him any longer.

Now as Jesus was going out of the temple courts and walking away, his disciples came to show him the temple buildings.

As he was sitting on the Mount of Olives, his disciples came to him privately and said, "Tell us, when will these things happen? And what will be the sign of your coming and of the end of the age?"

But understand this: If the owner of the house had known at what time of night the thief was coming, he would have been alert and would not have let his house be broken into.

When the bridegroom was delayed a long time, they all became drowsy and fell asleep.

But at midnight there was a shout, 'Look, the bridegroom is here! Come out to meet him.'

But while they had gone to buy it, the bridegroom arrived, and those who were ready went inside with him to the wedding banquet. Then the door was shut.

so I was afraid, and I went and hid your talent in the ground. See, you have what is yours.'

For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in,

I was naked and you gave me clothing, I was sick and you took care of me, I was in prison and you visited me.'

For I was hungry and you gave me nothing to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me nothing to drink.

I was a stranger and you did not receive me as a guest, naked and you did not clothe me, sick and in prison and you did not visit me.'

Then the chief priests and the elders of the people met together in the palace of the high priest, who was named Caiaphas.

Now while Jesus was in Bethany at the house of Simon the leper,

a woman came to him with an alabaster jar of expensive perfumed oil, and she poured it on his head as he was at the table.

When it was evening, he took his place at the table with the twelve.

While he was still speaking, Judas, one of the twelve, arrived. With him was a large crowd armed with swords and clubs, sent by the chief priests and elders of the people.

But Peter was following him from a distance, all the way to the high priest's courtyard. After going in, he sat with the guards to see the outcome.

But Jesus was silent. The high priest said to him, "I charge you under oath by the living God, tell us if you are the Christ, the Son of God."

Now Peter was sitting outside in the courtyard. A slave girl came to him and said, "You also were with Jesus the Galilean."

When he went out to the gateway, another slave girl saw him and said to the people there, "This man was with Jesus the Nazarene."

When it was early in the morning, all the chief priests and the elders of the people plotted against Jesus to execute him.

Then what was spoken by Jeremiah the prophet was fulfilled: "They took the thirty silver coins, the price of the one whose price had been set by the people of Israel,

But when he was accused by the chief priests and the elders, he did not respond.

But he did not answer even one accusation, so that the governor was quite amazed.

During the feast the governor was accustomed to release one prisoner to the crowd, whomever they wanted.

As he was sitting on the judgment seat, his wife sent a message to him: "Have nothing to do with that innocent man; I have suffered greatly as a result of a dream about him today."

When Pilate saw that he could do nothing, but that instead a riot was starting, he took some water, washed his hands before the crowd and said, "I am innocent of this man's blood. You take care of it yourselves!"

Just then the temple curtain was torn in two, from top to bottom. The earth shook and the rocks were split apart.

Now when the centurion and those with him who were guarding Jesus saw the earthquake and what took place, they were extremely terrified and said, "Truly this one was God's Son!"

Now when it was evening, there came a rich man from Arimathea, named Joseph, who was also a disciple of Jesus.
