And the whole city was gathered together about the door;

So, Jesus went into the [Jewish] synagogues throughout all Galilee, preaching [the good news about the coming kingdom, verses 14-15] and driving out evil spirits.

"See that you tell nobody a single word about it. Be gone, show yourself to the priest, and to prove it to the people, make the offering for your purification which Moses prescribed."

but as soon as he was gone, he began freely to talk of it, and blazed it about every where, so that Jesus could not go publickly into the city any more, but stay'd in the out parts, which were not much frequented, where people came to him from every quarter.

And when he came into Capernaum again after some days, the news went about that he was in the house.

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 Jesus, having knowledge in his spirit of their thoughts, said to them, Why are you reasoning about these things in your hearts?

Which is easier?--to say to the paralyzed man, 'Your sins are forgiven'? or to say 'Get up, and take up your mat, and walk about'?

Jesus went out again along the [Galilean] seashore; and all the people were coming to Him, and He was teaching 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.

When Jesus heard [about] this, He said to them, "People who are healthy do not need a doctor, but [only] sick people do. I did not come to call those who do right, but sinners [instead]."

And it came about that on the Sabbath day he was going through the grain-fields; and while they were walking, his disciples took the heads of grain.

And he looked round about on them, angrily mourning on the blindness of their hearts. And said to the man, "Stretch forth thine hand." And he stretched it out: And his hand was restored, even as whole as the other.

And the Pharisees went out, and straight away made designs with the Herodians about how they might put him to death.

And from Jerusalem, and from Idumaea, and the other side of Jordan, and the country about Tyre and Sidon, a great number, hearing what great things he did, came to him.

For he had healed many, so that all those who {were suffering from diseases} pressed about him in order that they could touch him.

When His relatives [or friends] heard about this [i.e., all that He was doing], they went out to take custody of Him [for safety reasons?], for people were saying, "He has lost his mind."

And the people sat about him, and said unto him, "Behold, thy mother and thy brethren seek for thee without."

And looking round at those who were seated about him, he said, See, my mother and my brothers!

He began again to teach by the sea-side: but there was so great a crowd gathered about him, that he was oblig'd to go into a ship, where he sat down, and stay'd on board while the people stood on the shore.

And he gave them teaching about a number of things in the form of stories, and said to them in his teaching, Give ear:

And when he was by himself, those who were round him with the twelve put questions to him about the purpose of the stories.

He told them, "The secret about the kingdom of God has been given to you. But to those on the outside, everything comes in parables

And he said to them, If you are not clear about this story, how will you be clear about the others?

and the cares of this age, and the deceitfulness of wealth, and the cravings about other things entering in, choke the word, and it becomes unfruitful.

And he said to them, "Take care about what you hear. The measure you use will be the measure you receive, and more will be added to you.

But he was in the stern, sleeping on a cushion. They woke him up and said to him, "Teacher, don't you care that we are about to die?"

And he let them do it. And the unclean spirits came out and went into the pigs; and the herd went rushing down a sharp slope into the sea, about two thousand of them; and they came to their death in the sea.

And those who had seen [it] described to them what had happened to the demon-possessed man, and about the pigs.

But Jesus would not allow him, saying to the man, "Go home to your friends [and family?] and tell them about the great things the Lord has done for you and how He had pity on you."

But the man went away and began telling people throughout Decapolis about all of the great things Jesus had done for him. [Note: "Decapolis" means "ten cities" and was a region located east of the Jordan River].

When Jesus again had crossed in the boat to the other side, a great crowd gathered about Him, as He was standing on the seashore.

About then a man named Jairus, one of the officials of the synagogue, came to Jesus and, upon seeing Him, fell to the ground at His feet.

He begged Him earnestly, saying, "My little daughter is about to die; [please] come and place your hands on her so she may be healed and live."

so Jesus went with him, attended by a great crowd, that press'd about him.

[When she] heard about Jesus, she came up in the crowd behind [him] [and] touched his cloak,

And Jesus immediately felt, in himself, the virtue that went out of him, and turned him round about in the press, and said, "Who touched my clothes?"

his disciples replied, you see the multitude press about you, and do you ask, who touched you?

And he looked round about to see her who had done this.

And the young girl got up straight away, and was walking about; she being twelve years old. And they were overcome with wonder.

But He strictly charged them to let nobody know about it, and told them to give her something to eat.

And when the Sabbath had come, he began to teach in the synagogue, and many hearing him were astonished, saying, "Where did this man get these things?" and, "What is the wisdom that is given to this man, that such mighty works come about by his hands?

And he was greatly surprised because they had no faith. And he went about the country places teaching.

Now King Herod heard about this [i.e., what Jesus was doing] because His name had become well known. He said, "John the Immerser has risen from the dead and it is his powers that are at work in Jesus."

But when King Herod heard [about Jesus], he said, "John, whom I [had] decapitated, has risen."

Herodias felt bitterly toward him and wanted him killed. But she could not bring it about,

When his disciples heard about it, they came and removed his corpse and placed it in a tomb.

And he got out, and saw a great mass of people, and he had pity on them, because they were like sheep without a keeper: and he gave them teaching about a number of things.

Send them away, so that they may go into the country and small towns round about, and get some food for themselves.

But He answered them, "You [men] give them something to eat." And they replied, "Should we go and buy a supply of bread to give them to eat?" [Note: The amount mentioned here indicates that it was two hundred days of a farm laborer's pay, or about $14,000 in 1994].

And they sat down in ranks, about one hundred, and about fifty.

And they that ate were about five thousand men.

And about then Jesus compelled His disciples to get into a boat and go on ahead of Him to the other side [i.e., to the west side of Lake Galilee] to Bethsaida [Note: This was apparently a different "Bethsaida" from the one mentioned in Luke 9:10, which was on the east side of Lake Galilee], while He Himself sent the crowd away.

And seeing that they had trouble in getting their boat through the water, because the wind was against them, about the fourth watch of the night he came to them, walking on the sea; and he would have gone past them;

For it was not clear to them about the bread; but their hearts were hard.

And went running through all the country round about, and took on their beds those who were ill, to where it was said that he was.

The Pharisees met about Him, and also some scribes who had come from Jerusalem.

they decline to eat what comes from the market till they have washed it; and they have a number of other traditions to keep about washing cups and jugs and basins [and beds].)

So he said to them, "Isaiah prophesied correctly about you hypocrites, as it is written, 'This people honors me with their lips, but their heart is far, far away from me.

for laying aside what is of divine appointment, you stick to their human traditions, about the washing of pots, and cups, and many other the like practices.

For Moses said, [Ex. 20:12] 'Give honor to your father and mother,' and [Ex. 21:17 says], 'Whoever says bad things about his father or mother should surely be put to death.'

17 When he had entered into a house away from the crowd, his disciples asked him about the parable.

And when he had gone into the house away from all the people, his disciples put questions to him about the saying.

But immediately a woman whose young daughter was possessed by an unclean spirit, [when she] heard about him, came [and] fell down at his feet,

Then He charged them not to tell anybody about it, but the more He kept charging them, the more they kept spreading the news.

About that time, when there was again a great crowd of people who had nothing to eat, Jesus called his disciples to him, and said:

And there were about four thousand people: and he sent them away.

So they began to discuss with one another about having no bread.

said, why do you trouble your heads about your having no bread? are you yet so void of sense, and understanding? are your minds so blinded?

He looked up and said, "I can see people, for they look to me like trees, only they are moving about."

Now Jesus and His disciples went out to the villages [in the vicinity] of Caesarea Philippi [Note: This was a city about

And he warned them that they should tell no one about him.

And he was speaking openly [about] the subject, and Peter took him aside [and] began to rebuke him.

But he, turning about, and seeing his disciples, said sharply to Peter, Get out of my way, Satan: for your mind is not on the things of God, but on the things of men.

And suddenly looking round about, they saw no one any longer, but Jesus only with themselves.

They kept the matter to themselves but argued about what "rising from the dead" meant.

He answered them, "Elijah does come first and gets everything ready, but how is it that the Scripture says about the Son of Man that He will suffer much and be rejected?

But I say to you that Elijah has come, and they have done to him whatever they were pleased to do, even as the Writings say about him.

And when they came to the disciples, they saw a great mass of people about them, and scribes questioning them.

And he said, What are you questioning them about?

And they took him to him: and when he saw him, the spirit in him straight away became violent; and he went down on the earth, rolling about and streaming at the lips.

From there they went out and began to go through Galilee, and He did not want anyone to know about it.

For he taught his disciples, and said to them, The Son of man is about to be delivered up into the hands of men, and they will put him to death; and when he hath been put to death, after three days he will rise again.

But the saying was not clear to them, and they were in fear of questioning him about it.

And they came to Capernaum: and when he was in the house, he put the question to them, What were you talking about on the way?

But they said nothing: because they had had an argument between themselves on the way, about who was the greatest.

But Jesus said, "Do not stop him, because no one who does a miracle in my name will be able soon afterward to say anything bad about me.

And whosoever shall be a snare to one of the little ones who believe in me, it were better for him if a millstone were hung about his neck, and he cast into the sea.

And he left that place and went into the district of Judea and crossed the Jordan, and crowds of people again gathered about him, and again he taught them as he was accustomed to do.

And He answered them by asking, "What has Moses commanded you about it?"

And in the house the disciples put questions to him again about this thing.

You know the commandments--'Do not kill. Do not commit adultery. Do not steal. Do not say what is false about others. Do not cheat. Honor thy father and thy mother.'"

And Jesus, looking round about, said to his disciples, How hard it is for those who have wealth to come into the kingdom of God!

Now they were on the road going up to Jerusalem, and Jesus was going on ahead of them. And they were astounded, but those who were following [him] were afraid. And taking aside the twelve again, he began to tell them the things that were about to happen to him:

And they said to him, We are able. And Jesus said to them, You will take of the cup from which I take; and the baptism which I am about to undergo you will undergo:

And [when they] heard [this], the ten began to be indignant about James and John.

Then they [i.e., Jesus and the twelve apostles] came to Jericho [Note: This was a town about

As they came near to Jerusalem, about Bethphage and Bethany, by the mount of Olives, Jesus sent two of his disciples, and said to them:

Then some of those who stood by, said unto them, What are ye about, untying the colt?

And he went into Jerusalem into the Temple; and after looking round about on all things, it being now evening, he went out to Bethany with the twelve.
