Enter ye in at the strait gate; the gate that leadeth to destruction is broad, and the way is open, and they who pass through are numerous.

but the gate which leads to life is narrow, and the way is difficult, and few there be that find it.

for it is he that is meant in that passage, "behold, I send my messenger before thy face, who shall prepare thy way before thee."

and in sowing, part of the grain fell in the high-way, and the fowls light and peck'd them up:

when any one heareth the doctrine of the gospel, and considers it not, then comes the wicked one, and catches away what was sown in his heart: he is the person meant by the high-way, where some of the seed was sown: but the stony ground,

but while the people slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat, and went his way.

As Jesus was on the way to Jerusalem, he took the twelve disciples in private, and said to them,

and there were two blind men sitting by the way-side, who hearing that Jesus was passing by, cried out, "have mercy on us, O Lord, thou son of David."

abundance of people spread their garments upon the ground; others lop'd down branches from the trees, and strewed them in the way:

when seeing a fig-tree by the way, he came to it, and finding nothing thereon, but bare leaves, said to it, may you never more bear fruit. and presently the fig-tree withered away.

for John instructed you in the way of righteousness, and ye believed him not: but the publicans and the licentious believed him. and tho' you saw that, you did not yet repent, so as to believe him.

but instead of showing any regard, they went their ways, one to his farm, another to his traffick.

on hearing this, they were filled with admiration, and so leaving him, they went their way.

as they were making the way to his disciples, Jesus himself met them, and said, I salute you. and they came, and embraced his feet, and worshipped him.

It is written in the prophet, "behold, I send my messenger before thy face, who shall prepare thy way before thee.

The voice of one crying in the wilderness, prepare ye the way of the Lord, make his paths straight."

You are in the right, said he, to abolish the laws of God, to make way for such traditions.

then said Jesus to her, for this expression, go thy way, the demon has left your daughter.

if I send them home fasting, they will faint by the way: for some of them are come very far.

From thence Jesus went attended with his disciples to the villages of Cesarea Philippi. and ask'd them by the way, who do they say I am?

Having left that place, they went a private way through Galilee: for he was willing to be conceal'd.

At length, he arrived at Capernaum, where being in his own house, he asked his disciples, what were you disputing about by the way?

When they were on the road to Jerusalem, Jesus led the way, and they followed behind full of apprehension and fear. then Jesus calling the twelve apostles to him again, acquainted them with what should befal him.

At length they came to Jericho, and as he was leaving Jericho, accompanied by his disciples, and a great number of people, a blind man called Bartimeus sat begging in the high-way.

and Jesus said to him, go your way, your faith has cur'd you, and immediately he had sight, and followed Jesus in the road.

accordingly they went, and finding the colt tied before a door, where two ways met, they untied it.

many spread their clothes in the way, others lopt down the branches of trees to strew them in the road.

Then Jesus address'd himself to them in this parabolical manner. a certain person planted a vineyard, made a fence about it, clear'd the way for a wine-press, built a tower, and committed it to the care of vine-dressers, while he was travelling abroad.

when they were come, they said to him, master, we know that you are sincere, that you are not influenced by any one, for you have no regard to the person of men: but teach us the way of God according to truth. now should we pay tribute to Cesar, or no? shall we pay, or shall we not pay?

at this they started out, and fled from the sepulchre in a violent consternation, without speaking a word to any by the way: they were so frighted.

and you, dear babe, you shall be the prophet of the most high: for you shall go before the Lord, in order to prepare his way,

to enlighten those, who are in darkness, and in the shadow of death, and to direct our steps into the ways of peace."

as it is written in the book of the prophecies of Esaias, "the voice of one crying in the desart, prepare ye the way of the Lord, make his paths clear.

every valley shall be filled, and every mountain and hill shall be level'd: the crooked shall be made strait, and the rough ways shall be made smooth,

And by way of comparison he said to them, can the blind lead the blind without tumbling both into the ditch?

he it is, of whom it is written, "behold, I send my messenger before you, who shall prepare the way for you."

A vast number of people being assembled, and crowding to him from all quarters, he thus address'd himself to them by way of parable.

for he had an only daughter, about twelve years of age, who lay a dying. as he was on the way, the crowd press'd after him,

carry neither purse, nor bag, nor shoes; neither salute any man by the way.

a certain priest happen'd to be travelling that way, who look'd upon him, and then pass'd on.

When you are going with your adversary before the magistrate, pay the interest, and get your discharge, while you are on the way; for fear he should bring you before the judge, and the judge deliver you to the officer, and the officer throw you into jail.

the master reply'd, go then to the high-ways and by-paths, and compel them to come in, that my house may be full.

as soon as he perceiv'd them, he said to them, go shew yourselves to the priests. and on the way they found themselves cured.

and he said to him, rise, go your way, your faith has sav'd you.

but the Publican, who stood a good way lower, not daring to lift up even his eyes to heaven, only smote his breast, and said, O God, be merciful to me, who am a sinner.

those who led the way bid him hold his tongue. but he bawl'd out the louder, son of David have pity on me.

so he ran before, and climb'd up a mulberry-tree to view him; for he was to pass that way.

and all the way, as he marched, they strewed with their clothes.

Then by way of similitude, consider, said he, the fig-tree, and all the other trees;

and he said to them, what is the subject of your debate in the way, and why do you look so sad?

Upon this, they said to one another, to what ardor did not our affections rise, while he talk'd with us by the way, and while he expounded to us the scriptures?

"I am, said he, the voice of one crying in the wilderness, clear the way of the Lord," as said the prophet Esaias.

go thy way, said Jesus: thy son is well. and the man believed what Jesus had said to him, and went his way.

rise, said Jesus to him, take up thy bed, and go your way.

and immediately the man was healed, and took up his bed, and went his way: but that day being the sabbath,

Jesus therefore repeated what he had said, "I go my way, and ye shall seek me, and shall die in your incredulity, so that whither I go, ye cannot come."

I assure you, he that entreth not by the door into the sheep-fold, but climbeth up some other way, is a thief and a robber.

Jesus talk'd to them in this figurative way: but they did not understand the meaning of his discourse.

now Jesus was riding upon a young ass, which he got by the way; as it is written,

and where I am going you know, and the way ye know.

Thomas said to him, Lord, we know not whither you are going, how then can we know the way?

Jesus said to him, I am the way, and the truth, and the life: no man can come to the father, but by me.

These things have I express'd in a figurative way: the time is coming when my language will be no longer enigmatical, but I shall give you a plain account relating to my father.

Jesus answered, I have told you that I am he. "if therefore it is me you look for, let these go their way."

thou hast made known to me the ways of life; thou shalt make me full of joy by thy presence."

after this the apostles having certified and preached the word of the Lord, returned to Jerusalem, preaching the gospel by the way in many villages of the Samaritans.

Now an angel of the Lord spoke to Philip, saying, arise, and go toward the south, by the way that leads from Jerusalem to Gaza, in the desart.

when they were come out of the water, the spirit of the Lord caught away Philip, that the eunuch saw him no more: and he pursued his way with joy.

and said, "thou heap of imposture and mischief, offspring of the devil, and enemy to all justice, wilt thou not cease to pervers men from the right ways of the Lord?

as she followed Paul and the rest of us, she cried out, these men are the servants of the most high God, who show you the way to salvation.

this fellow, said they, would persuade us to set up a way of worship inconsistent with our law.

after this, Paul had a design to pass thro' Macedonia and Achaia in his way to Jerusalem: purposing when he had been there to make a visit to Rome.

but unto those who are contentious, and do not yield to the truth, but give way to injustice, indignation and wrath,

much every way: chiefly, because they were intrusted with the oracles of God.

they are all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable, there is none that doth good, no not one.

destruction and misery are in their ways:

and the way of peace have they not known.

I find then a settled custom, that evil is objected in my way whenever I have a mind to act well:

O the depth of the divine goodness, wisdom, and contrivance! how impenetrable are his decrees, and his ways past finding out!

This I don't write to give you any confusion, but by way of remonstrance, to you who are my dear children.
