"Teacher, Moses said, "If a man dies having no children, his brother must marry the widow and have children for his brother.'

Now there were seven brothers with us. And the first died [after] getting married, and [because he] did not have descendants, he left his wife to his brother.

But about the dead coming back to life, have you no knowledge of what was said to you by God in the Writings:

And he said to him, Have love for the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind.

And a second like it is this, Have love for your neighbour as for yourself.

"'The Lord said to my Lord, sit at My right hand until I have put thy foes beneath thy feet'?

The scribes and the Pharisees have the authority of Moses;

They tie up heavy loads and have them put on men's shoulders, but they will not lift a finger to move them.

They do everything they do to have men see it. They wear wide Scripture texts as charms, and they wear large tassels,

and love to sit uppermost at feasts, and to have the chief seats in the synagogues,

to be greeted with honor in public places, and to have men call them 'Teacher.'

But as for you, you must not seek for others to call you 'Teacher,' for you have but one who is 'Teacher,' and you are all brothers.

Do not call anyone on earth your father, because you have one Father, who is in heaven.

And you must not be called 'leaders,' for you have only one Leader, and that is Christ.

Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites, for ye pay tithes of mint and anise and cummin, and ye have left aside the weightier matters of the law, judgment and mercy and faith: these ye ought to have done and not have left those aside.

“Woe to you, [self-righteous] scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you are like whitewashed tombs which look beautiful on the outside, but inside are full of dead men’s bones and everything unclean.

It is the same with you. Outwardly, and to others, you have the look of religious men, but inwardly you are full of hypocrisy and sin.

If we had been living in the days of our fathers, we would not have taken part with them in the blood of the prophets.

and you have filled up the measure of your fathers.

Verily, I say unto you - All these things, will have come, upon this generation.

O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, putting to death the prophets, and stoning those who are sent to her! Again and again would I have taken your children to myself as a bird takes her young ones under her wings, and you would not!

And news will come to you of wars and talk of wars: do not be troubled, for these things have to be; but it is still not the end.

And numbers of people will be turned from the right way, and will give one another up and have hate for one another.

And because iniquity shall have the upper hand, the love of many shall abate.

And this glad message of the kingdom will be proclaimed in all the inhabited earth, for a witness unto all the nations, - and, then, will have come, the end.

"When you have seen (to use the language of the Prophet Daniel)

And woe to those who have in the womb and to those who suckle in those days.

And pray that it will not be in the winter or on a Sabbath day when you will have to flee [from the city]. [Note: Jewish Sabbath day restrictions on travel (only three-fifths of a mile) and city gate closures would make leaving the city nearly impossible].

And if those days had not been made short there would have been no salvation for any, but because of the saints those days will be made short.

See, I have made it clear to you before it comes about.

And then the sign of the Son of man will be seen in heaven: and then all the nations of the earth will have sorrow, and they will see the Son of man coming on the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.

And from the fig-tree learn ye the simile: When already its branch may have become tender, and the leaves it may put forth, ye know that summer is nigh,

Verily I say to you, This generation will not have passed away until all these things shall have taken place.

Be watching, then! for you have no knowledge on what day your Lord will come.

But be certain of this, that if the master of the house had had knowledge of the time when the thief was coming, he would have been watching, and would not have let his house be broken into.

Be ready then; for at a time which you have no thought of the Son of man will come.

The master of that servant, will have come, on a day when he is not expecting, and in an hour when he is not observing, -

And will have him cut in two, and will give him a part in the fate of the false ones: there will be weeping and cries of sorrow.

And the foolish said to the wise, Give us of your oil, for our lamps have gone out.

But he made answer and said, Truly I say to you, I have no knowledge of you.

'Watch therefore, for ye have not known the day nor the hour in which the Son of Man doth come.

And he who had the five talents came with his other five talents, saying, Lord, you gave into my care five talents: see, I have got five more.

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.

And he who had the two talents came and said, Lord, you gave into my care two talents: see, I have got two more.

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.

And he who had had the one talent came and said, Lord, I had knowledge that you are a hard man, getting in grain where you have not put seed, and making profits for which you have done no work:

And [because I] was afraid, I went away [and] hid your talent in the ground. See, you have [what is] yours!'

But his lord in answer said to him, You are a bad and unready servant; if you had knowledge that I get in grain where I did not put seed, and make profits for which I have done no work,

Why, then, did you not put my money in the bank, and at my coming I would have got back what is mine with interest?

For to everyone who has will be given, and he will have more: but from him who has not, even what he has will be taken away.

Then will the King say to those on his right, Come, you who have the blessing of my Father, into the kingdom made ready for you before the world was:

And the King answering shall say to them, Verily, I say to you, Inasmuch as ye have done it to one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it to me.

[when] I came [to you as] a stranger, you did not give me a place to stay; [when I] did not have adequate clothing, you did not give me anything to wear; when I was sick, or in prison, you did not visit me.'

Then shall they also answer saying, Lord, when saw we thee hungering, or thirsting, or a stranger, or naked, or ill, or in prison, and have not ministered to thee?

Then shall he answer them saying, Verily I say to you, Inasmuch as ye have not done it to one of these least, neither have ye done it to me.

'Ye have known that after two days the passover cometh, and the Son of Man is delivered up to be crucified.'

and took counsel together to get hold of Jesus by craft and have him put to death.

For this could have been sold for a large sum and given to the poor!"

For the poor you always have with you, but you do not always have me.

Now the first day of the feast of unleavened bread, the disciples came to Jesus, and said, where would you have us make the preparations for the paschal-supper?

The Son of Man is going away as the Scriptures say of Him, but a curse will be on that man by whom He is betrayed. It would have been better for that man, if he had never been born!"

And Judas, the one who was betraying him, answered [and] said, "{Surely I am not he, am I}, Rabbi?" He said to him, "You have said [it]."

Then Jesus said [to His disciples], "All of you will have doubts about me tonight, for it is written [Zech. 13:7], 'I will strike down the shepherd and the sheep of the flock will be scattered everywhere.'

But after I have been resurrected, I will go ahead of you to Galilee.”

Jesus said to him, Truly I say to you that this night, before the hour of the cock's cry, you will say three times that you have no knowledge of me.

Peter answered, "Even if I have to die with you, I will never disown you."

And he comes to the disciples and finds them sleeping, and says to Peter, Thus ye have not been able to watch one hour with me?

And Jesus said to him, "Friend, [do that] for which you have come." Then they came up [and] laid hands on Jesus and arrested him.

Do you suppose that I am unable to appeal to my Father and have Him furnish me on the spot one hundred thousand angels?

At that time Jesus said to the crowds, "Have you come out with swords and clubs, as against a robber, to arrest me? Every day in the temple [courts] I sat teaching, and you did not arrest me!

Now the high priests and the whole council were trying to get false testimony against Jesus, to have Him put to death;

Then the high priest arose and said to Him, "Have you no answer to make? What do you say to the evidence that they bring against you?"

Jesus said to him, "You have said [it]. But I tell you, from now [on] you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of the Power and coming on the clouds of heaven."

Then the high priest tore his robes, saying, "He has blasphemed! What further need do we have of witnesses? Behold, you have just now heard the blasphemy!

And he denied before all, saying, 'I have not known what thou sayest.'

and again did he deny with an oath -- 'I have not known the man.'

Then began he to anathematise, and to swear -- 'I have not known the man;' and immediately did a cock crow,

And the word of Jesus came back to Peter, when he said, Before the hour of the cock's cry, you will say three times that you have no knowledge of me. And he went out, weeping bitterly.

When morning came, all the high priests and the elders of the people took counsel against Jesus, so as to have him put to death.

saying, "I have sinned [by] betraying innocent blood!" But they said, "What [is that] to us? You see to [it]!"

Now Jesus stood before the governor. “Are You the King of the Jews?” the governor asked Him.

Jesus answered, “You have said it.”

therefore when they were assembled, Pilate said to them, who would you have releas'd? Barabbas, or Jesus, who is called Christ?

And [while] he was sitting on the judgment seat, his wife sent [a message] to him, saying, "{Have nothing to do with that righteous man}, for I have suffered much as a result of a dream today because of him.")

But the high priests and the elders lined up the crowds to ask for Barabbas, and to have Jesus put to death.

the governor therefore having asked, which of the two would you have me release? they said, Barabbas.

Pilate asked them, "What then shall I do with Jesus. the so-called Christ?" They all answered, "Have Him crucified!"

He asked, "Why, what has He done that is wrong?" But they kept on shouting louder and louder, "Have Him crucified!"

A saviour of others, he has no salvation for himself. If he is the King of Israel, let him now come down from the cross, and we will have faith in him.

He trusted upon God; let him save him now if he will have him. For he said, I am Son of God.

And about the ninth hour Jesus cried out with a loud voice, saying, "Eli, Eli, lema sabachthani?" (that is, "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?")

and the sepulchers were opened, and many bodies of the sanctified who have been asleep arose.

The Roman Captain, and the men with him who were watching Jesus, on seeing the earthquake and all that was happening, became greatly frightened and exclaimed: "This must indeed have been God's Son!"

He went to Pilate and begged to have the body of Jesus, and Pilate ordered it to be given to him.

saying, Sir, we have called to mind that that deceiver said when he was still alive, After three days I arise.

Issue an order then to have the tomb closely guarded, so that His disciples cannot come and steal Him and tell the people that He rose from the dead, and the last deception be worse than the first."

Pilate said to them, "You have a guard of soldiers. Go, make [it] as secure as you know how."

And the messenger answering said to the women, 'Fear not ye, for I have known that Jesus, who hath been crucified, ye seek;

And go quickly, tell his disciples, 'He has been raised from the dead, and behold, he is going ahead of you into Galilee. You will see him there.' Behold, I have told you."

Lo, I have told you. And departing quickly from the sepulchre with fear and great joy they ran to tell his disciples.

Then said Jesus to them, Have no fear: go and give word to my brothers to go into Galilee, and there they will see me.
