WEBVTT 00:17.150 --> 00:23.170 Many years ago, when I was a young man, I lived on the shores of Lake Galilee in 00:23.170 --> 00:24.530 the town of Capernaum. 00:26.170 --> 00:30.250 At that time, the Roman Empire controlled all of Palestine. 00:33.450 --> 00:38.450 Although I am a Jew, I worked as a tax collector for King Herod of Galilee, 00:39.090 --> 00:41.430 who paid tribute to the Roman government. 00:42.210 --> 00:46.690 My cooperation with Rome made me an outcast in my own community. 00:47.550 --> 00:55.510 However, when Jesus the Christ looked at me and said, follow me, I left everything 00:55.510 --> 00:57.990 and became one of his disciples. 01:00.450 --> 01:02.830 My name is Matthew. 01:13.990 --> 01:19.750 I am writing this gospel to show through the writings of the Law, the Prophets, 01:19.950 --> 01:25.430 and the Psalms, that Jesus of Nazareth is the long-awaited Messiah. 01:48.560 --> 01:54.000 The following is a word-for-word account of the Gospel according to Matthew. 02:00.070 --> 02:06.010 A record of the genealogy of Jesus Christ, son of David, the son of Abraham. 02:08.490 --> 02:13.790 Abraham was the father of Isaac, Isaac the father of Jacob, Jacob the 02:13.790 --> 02:18.770 father of Judah and his brothers, Judah the father of Perez and Sarah, 02:18.990 --> 02:25.830 whose mother was Tamar, Perez the father of Hezron, Hezron the father of Ram, 02:26.430 --> 02:32.490 Ram the father of Aminadab, Aminadab the father of Nashon, Nashon the father of 02:32.490 --> 02:39.110 Salmon, Salmon the father of Boaz, whose mother was Rahab, Boaz the father of 02:39.110 --> 02:45.290 Obed, whose mother was Ruth, Obed the father of Jesse, and Jesse the father of 02:45.290 --> 02:46.390 King David. 02:48.090 --> 02:52.930 David was the father of Solomon, whose mother had been Uriah's wife, 02:53.690 --> 02:58.050 Solomon the father of Rehoboam, Rehoboam the father of Abijah, 02:58.430 --> 03:04.450 Abijah the father of Esau, Esau the father of Jehoshaphat, Jehoshaphat the father of 03:04.450 --> 03:10.790 Jehoram, Jehoram the father of Uzziah, Uzziah the father of Jotham, Jotham the 03:10.790 --> 03:17.050 father of Ahaz, Ahaz the father of Hezekiah, Hezekiah the father of Manasseh, 03:17.050 --> 03:23.710 Manasseh the father of Amon, Amon the father of Josiah, and Josiah the father of 03:23.710 --> 03:27.950 Jeconiah and his brothers at the time of the exile to Babylon. 03:29.050 --> 03:34.530 After the exile to Babylon Jeconiah was the father of Shealtiel, Shealtiel the 03:34.530 --> 03:40.050 father of Zerubbabel, Zerubbabel the father of Abiud, Abiud the father of 03:40.050 --> 03:47.370 Eliakim, Eliakim the father of Esau, Esau the father of Zadok, Zadok the father 03:47.370 --> 03:57.750 of Achim, Achim the father of Eliud, Eliud the father of Eliezer, Eliezer the 03:57.750 --> 04:02.050 father of Matan, Matan the father of Jacob, Jacob the father of Joseph, 04:02.270 --> 04:05.910 the husband of Mary, of whom was born Jesus, who is called Christ. 04:06.870 --> 04:14.290 Thus there were fourteen generations in all, from Abraham to David, fourteen from 04:14.290 --> 04:19.870 David to the exile to Babylon, and fourteen from the exile to the Christ. 04:24.330 --> 04:28.090 This is how the birth of Jesus Christ came about. 04:37.200 --> 04:43.320 His mother Mary was pledged to be married to Joseph, but before they came together, 04:44.220 --> 04:47.820 she was found to be with child through the Holy Spirit. 04:55.040 --> 04:59.860 Because Joseph, her husband, was a righteous man, and did not want to expose 04:59.860 --> 05:05.500 her to public disgrace, he had in mind to divorce her quietly. 05:12.650 --> 05:18.810 But after he had considered this, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a 05:18.810 --> 05:26.130 dream and said, Joseph, son of David, do 05:32.390 --> 05:39.670 not be afraid to take Mary home as your wife, because what is conceived in her is 05:39.670 --> 05:40.910 from the Holy Spirit. 05:41.990 --> 05:49.170 She will give birth to a son, and you are to give him the name Jesus, because he 05:49.170 --> 05:51.630 will save his people from their sins. 05:52.670 --> 05:58.390 All this took place to fulfill what the Lord had said through the prophet. 05:59.010 --> 06:03.810 The virgin will be with child, and will give birth to a son, and they 06:03.810 --> 06:07.290 will call him Immanuel, which means? 06:07.970 --> 06:08.930 God with us. 06:12.010 --> 06:16.150 When Joseph woke up, he did what the angel of the Lord had commanded him, 06:16.730 --> 06:18.810 and took Mary home as his wife. 06:29.850 --> 06:37.810 But he had no union with her until she gave birth to a son, and he gave him the 06:37.810 --> 06:39.310 name Jesus. 07:14.690 --> 07:19.710 After Jesus was born in Bethlehem and Judea, during the time of King Herod, 07:20.510 --> 07:26.770 Magi from the east came to Jerusalem and asked, Where is the one who has been born 07:26.770 --> 07:27.890 King of the Jews? 07:28.410 --> 07:31.510 We saw his star on the east, and have come to worship him. 07:45.890 --> 07:51.890 When King Herod heard this, he was disturbed, and all Jerusalem with him. 07:57.980 --> 08:02.860 When he had called together all the people's chief priests and teachers of the 08:02.860 --> 08:07.120 law, he asked them where the Christ was to be born. 08:07.620 --> 08:17.230 In Bethlehem, in Judea, they replied, For this is what the prophet has written. 08:18.270 --> 08:25.570 But you, Bethlehem and the land of Judah, are by no means least among the rulers of 08:25.570 --> 08:25.870 Judah. 08:26.630 --> 08:32.890 For out of you will come a ruler who will be shepherd of my people Israel. 08:34.350 --> 08:41.930 Then Herod called the Magi secretly and found out from them the exact time the 08:41.930 --> 08:43.190 star had appeared. 08:44.270 --> 08:48.630 He sent them to Bethlehem and said, Go and make a careful search for the 08:48.630 --> 08:49.090 child. 08:49.730 --> 08:56.870 As soon as you find him, report to me, so that I too may go and worship him. 09:04.460 --> 09:07.700 After they had heard the king, they went on their way. 09:08.180 --> 09:13.060 And the star they had seen in the east went ahead of them, until it stopped over 09:13.060 --> 09:15.080 the place where the child was. 09:16.060 --> 09:19.240 When they saw the star, they were overjoyed. 09:32.360 --> 09:38.120 At coming to the house, they saw the child with his mother Mary, and they bowed down 09:38.120 --> 09:39.240 and worshipped him. 09:40.640 --> 09:45.260 Then they opened their treasures and presented him with gifts of gold, 09:45.460 --> 09:47.700 and of incense, and of myrrh. 09:59.650 --> 10:04.830 And having been warned in a dream not to go back to Herod, they returned to their 10:04.830 --> 10:06.830 country by another route. 10:12.440 --> 10:17.760 When they had gone, an angel of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream. 10:19.680 --> 10:20.980 Get up, he said. 10:21.340 --> 10:24.740 Take the child and his mother and escape to Egypt. 10:25.260 --> 10:30.560 Stay there until I tell you, for Herod is going to search for the child to kill him. 10:41.950 --> 10:46.690 So he got up, took the child and his mother during the night, and left for 10:46.690 --> 10:49.710 Egypt, where he stayed until the death of Herod. 10:51.170 --> 10:57.010 And so was fulfilled what the Lord had said through the prophet, out of Egypt I 10:57.010 --> 10:58.090 called my son. 11:19.440 --> 11:24.560 When Herod realized that he had been outwitted by the Magi, he was furious. 11:27.800 --> 11:34.040 He gave orders to kill all the boys in Bethlehem and its vicinity who were two 11:34.040 --> 11:39.240 years old and under, in accordance with the time he had learned from the Magi. 12:42.680 --> 12:46.540 And what was said through the prophet Jeremiah was fulfilled. 12:48.160 --> 12:54.260 The voice is heard in Ramah, weeping and great mourning. 12:55.940 --> 13:05.140 Rachel weeping for her children and refusing to be comforted, because they are 13:05.140 --> 13:05.860 no more. 13:43.250 --> 13:48.970 After Herod died, an angel of the Lord appeared in a dream to Joseph in Egypt and 13:48.970 --> 13:55.790 said, Get up, take the child and his mother and go to the land of Israel. 13:56.430 --> 14:00.530 For those who are trying to take the child's life are dead. 14:10.710 --> 14:16.530 So he got up, took the child and his mother and went to the land of Israel. 14:34.000 --> 14:38.460 But when he heard that Archelaus was reigning in Judea in place of his father 14:38.460 --> 14:40.980 Herod, he was afraid to go there. 14:41.920 --> 14:47.520 Having been warned in a dream, he withdrew to the district of Galilee and 14:47.520 --> 14:49.580 he went to live in a town called Nazareth. 14:50.440 --> 14:56.520 So was fulfilled what was said through the prophets, he will be called a Nazarene. 14:59.040 --> 15:04.700 In those days John the Baptist came, preaching in the desert of Judea and 15:04.700 --> 15:09.100 saying, Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is near. 15:09.880 --> 15:16.240 This is he who was spoken of through the prophet Isaiah, a voice of one calling in 15:16.240 --> 15:16.780 the desert. 15:17.820 --> 15:22.300 Prepare the way for the Lord, make straight paths for him. 15:29.210 --> 15:34.450 John's clothes were made of camel's hair and he had a leather belt around his 15:34.450 --> 15:34.830 waist. 15:35.510 --> 15:38.670 His food was locusts and wild honey. 15:41.870 --> 15:47.430 People went out to him from Jerusalem and all Judea and the whole region of the 15:47.430 --> 15:52.530 Jordan, confessing their sins, they were baptized by him in the Jordan 15:52.530 --> 15:52.950 river. 16:05.800 --> 16:10.480 But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees coming to where he was 16:10.480 --> 16:17.020 baptizing, he said to them, You brood of vipers, who warned you to flee from the 16:17.020 --> 16:17.680 coming wrath? 16:18.400 --> 16:20.260 Produce fruit in keeping with repentance. 16:22.720 --> 16:26.640 I do not think you can say to yourselves, we have Abraham as our father. 16:26.640 --> 16:32.280 I tell you that out of these stones God can raise up children for Abraham. 16:33.000 --> 16:37.400 The axe is already at the root of the trees and every tree that does not produce 16:37.400 --> 16:40.840 good fruit will be cut down and thrown into the fire. 16:47.870 --> 16:54.970 I baptize you with water for repentance, but after me will come one who is more 16:54.970 --> 16:58.250 powerful than I, whose sandals I am not fit to carry. 16:58.990 --> 17:03.190 He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and with fire. 17:04.710 --> 17:09.810 His winnowing fork is in his hand and he will clear his threshing floor, 17:10.450 --> 17:16.550 gathering his wheat into the barn and burning up the chaff with unquenchable 17:16.550 --> 17:17.090 fire. 17:57.090 --> 18:02.470 Then Jesus came from Galilee to the Jordan to be baptized by John. 18:03.270 --> 18:10.610 But John tried to deter him, saying, I need to be baptized by you until you 18:10.610 --> 18:11.270 come to me. 18:12.530 --> 18:17.270 Jesus replied, Let it be so now that it is proper for us to do this to fulfill all 18:17.270 --> 18:17.730 righteousness. 18:25.000 --> 18:26.500 Then John consented. 18:58.470 --> 19:02.870 As soon as Jesus was baptized, he went up out of the water. 19:03.930 --> 19:10.670 At that moment, heaven was opened and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a 19:10.670 --> 19:12.790 dove and lighting on him. 19:15.800 --> 19:22.360 And a voice from heaven said, This is my son whom I love. 19:23.360 --> 19:26.120 With him I am well pleased. 19:31.740 --> 19:37.360 Then Jesus was led by the Spirit into the desert to be tempted by the devil. 19:44.440 --> 19:48.040 After fasting forty days and forty nights, he was hungry. 19:50.240 --> 19:56.560 The tempter came to him and said, If you are the Son of God, tell these 19:56.560 --> 19:58.460 stones to become bread. 20:00.200 --> 20:05.220 Jesus answered, It is written, man does not live on bread alone, 20:05.280 --> 20:07.280 but on every word that comes from the mouth of God. 20:12.570 --> 20:15.270 Then the devil took him to the holy city. 20:16.270 --> 20:19.570 And had him stand on the highest point of the temple. 20:20.590 --> 20:25.430 If you are the Son of God, he said, throw yourself down. 20:26.070 --> 20:31.810 For it is written, he will command his angels concerning you, and they will lift 20:31.810 --> 20:36.670 you up in their hands, so that you will not strike your foot against a stone. 20:39.550 --> 20:45.150 Jesus answered him, It is also written, do not put the Lord your God to the test. 20:59.400 --> 21:03.920 Again, the devil took him to a very high mountain and showed him all the kingdoms 21:03.920 --> 21:05.350 of the world and their splendor. 21:07.500 --> 21:12.980 All this I will give you, he said, if you will bow down and worship me. 21:14.440 --> 21:17.080 Jesus said to him, Away from me, Satan! 21:18.640 --> 21:24.060 For it is written, worship the Lord your God, and serve him only. 21:24.940 --> 21:29.900 Then the devil left him, and angels came and attended him. 21:31.540 --> 21:37.500 When Jesus heard that John had been put in prison, he returned to Galilee. 21:38.940 --> 21:44.540 Leaving Nazareth, he went and lived in Capernaum, which is by the lake in the 21:44.540 --> 21:46.580 area of Zebulun and Naphtali. 21:48.540 --> 21:52.140 To fulfill what was said through the prophet Isaiah. 21:56.580 --> 22:02.620 The land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali, the way to the sea along the 22:02.620 --> 22:08.920 Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles, the people living in darkness have seen a 22:08.920 --> 22:09.740 great light. 22:10.580 --> 22:16.480 On those living in the land of the shadow of death, a light has dawned. 22:21.070 --> 22:28.530 From that time on, Jesus began to preach, Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is near. 22:52.410 --> 22:57.330 As Jesus was walking beside the sea of Galilee, he saw two brothers. 22:57.910 --> 23:00.530 Simon called Peter, and his brother Andrew. 23:01.190 --> 23:04.590 They were casting a net into the lake, and they were fishermen. 23:20.460 --> 23:26.120 Come follow me, Jesus said, and I will make you fishers of men. 23:39.200 --> 23:42.900 At once they left their nets and followed him. 23:52.540 --> 23:57.720 Going on from there, he saw two other brothers, James, son of Zebedee, 23:57.860 --> 23:58.920 and his brother John. 23:59.580 --> 24:03.540 They were in a boat with their father, Zebedee, preparing their nets. 24:11.460 --> 24:18.200 Jesus called them, and immediately they left the boat and their father and 24:18.200 --> 24:18.820 followed him. 24:52.000 --> 24:56.940 Jesus went throughout Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, preaching 24:56.940 --> 25:02.200 the good news of the kingdom, and healing every disease and sickness among the 25:02.200 --> 25:02.600 people. 25:27.500 --> 25:33.220 News about him spread all over Syria, and people brought to him all who were ill 25:33.220 --> 25:38.680 with various diseases, those suffering severe pain that demons possess, 25:39.060 --> 25:43.160 those having seizures and are paralyzed, and he healed them. 26:10.640 --> 26:17.540 Large crowds from Galilee, the Decapolis, Jerusalem, Judea, and the region across 26:17.540 --> 26:18.920 the Jordan followed him. 26:44.120 --> 26:48.000 Now, when he saw the crowds, he went up on a mountainside and sat down. 26:49.340 --> 26:54.960 The disciples came to him, and he began to teach them, saying, Blessed are the poor 26:54.960 --> 26:59.800 in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. 27:03.570 --> 27:07.450 Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted. 27:10.490 --> 27:16.050 Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth. 27:18.890 --> 27:28.810 Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be 27:28.810 --> 27:29.170 filled. 27:33.120 --> 27:38.920 Blessed are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy. 27:44.670 --> 27:50.510 Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God. 27:52.270 --> 27:58.870 Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called sons of God. 28:04.130 --> 28:10.090 Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness, for theirs is 28:10.090 --> 28:10.970 the kingdom of heaven. 28:14.510 --> 28:23.150 Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you, and falsely say all kinds 28:23.150 --> 28:24.970 of evil against you because of me. 28:27.330 --> 28:31.350 Rejoice, and be glad, because great is your reward in heaven. 28:32.350 --> 28:35.590 For in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you. 28:39.960 --> 28:41.940 You are the salt of the earth. 28:43.660 --> 28:48.780 But if the salt loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again? 28:48.880 --> 28:53.600 It is no longer good for anything except to be thrown out and trampled by men. 28:55.560 --> 28:57.220 You are the light of the world. 28:58.320 --> 29:00.440 A city on a hill cannot be hidden. 29:01.660 --> 29:04.820 Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. 29:06.180 --> 29:07.980 Instead, they put it on its stand. 29:09.700 --> 29:12.400 And it gives light to everyone in the house. 29:12.880 --> 29:19.280 In the same way, let your light shine before men that they may see your good 29:19.280 --> 29:23.060 deeds and praise your Father in heaven. 29:27.540 --> 29:31.220 Do not think that I have come to abolish the law or the prophets. 29:32.280 --> 29:36.480 I have not come to abolish them, but to fulfill them. 29:38.680 --> 29:43.340 I tell you the truth, until heaven and earth disappear, not the smallest letter, 29:44.960 --> 29:50.860 not the least stroke of a pen, will by any means disappear from the law 29:50.860 --> 29:52.380 until everything is accomplished. 29:54.740 --> 29:58.380 Anyone who breaks one of the least of these commandments and teaches others to 29:58.380 --> 30:00.680 do the same will be called least in the kingdom of heaven. 30:02.780 --> 30:13.040 But whoever practices and teaches these commands will be called great in the 30:13.040 --> 30:13.740 kingdom of heaven. 30:16.620 --> 30:20.280 For I tell you that unless your righteousness surpasses that of the 30:20.280 --> 30:26.000 Pharisees and the teachers of the law, you will certainly not enter the kingdom 30:26.000 --> 30:26.460 of heaven. 30:29.100 --> 30:35.400 You have heard that it was said to the people long ago, do not murder. 30:37.140 --> 30:39.880 And anyone who murders will be subject to judgment. 30:40.960 --> 30:46.860 But I tell you that anyone who is angry with his brother will be subject to 30:46.860 --> 30:47.220 judgment. 30:47.220 --> 30:55.800 Now, again, anyone who says to his brother, Raka, is answerable to the 30:55.800 --> 30:56.500 Sanhedrin. 30:57.160 --> 31:05.680 But anyone who says, you fool, will be in danger of the fire of hell. 31:10.840 --> 31:17.400 Therefore, if you are offering your gift at the altar, and there remember that your 31:17.400 --> 31:22.400 brother has something against you, leave your gift there in front of the 31:22.400 --> 31:22.660 altar. 31:23.380 --> 31:26.280 First go and be reconciled to your brother. 31:26.860 --> 31:30.080 Then come and offer your gift. 31:32.020 --> 31:35.640 Settle matters quickly with your adversary who is taking you to court. 31:37.120 --> 31:42.100 Do it while you are still with him on the way, or he may hand you over to the judge. 31:43.100 --> 31:47.040 The judge may hand you over to the officer, and you may be thrown into 31:47.040 --> 31:47.340 prison. 31:47.340 --> 31:48.260 I tell you the truth. 31:49.200 --> 31:51.920 You will not get out until you have paid the last penny. 31:55.650 --> 31:59.890 You have heard that it was said, do not commit adultery. 32:00.410 --> 32:06.890 But I tell you, anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed 32:06.890 --> 32:08.730 adultery with her in his heart. 32:10.090 --> 32:15.110 If your right eye causes you to sin, gouge it out and throw it away. 32:16.290 --> 32:21.170 It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to be 32:21.170 --> 32:22.130 thrown into hell. 32:24.150 --> 32:28.610 If your right hand causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it away. 32:29.850 --> 32:34.830 It is better for you to lose one part of your body than for your whole body to go 32:34.830 --> 32:35.390 into hell. 32:37.090 --> 32:43.250 It has been said anyone who divorces his wife must give her a certificate of 32:43.250 --> 32:43.810 divorce. 32:44.250 --> 32:50.970 But I tell you that anyone who divorces his wife except for marital unfaithfulness 32:51.830 --> 32:54.070 causes her to become an adulteress. 32:54.950 --> 32:58.810 And anyone who marries a divorced woman commits adultery. 33:01.750 --> 33:09.490 Again, you have heard that it was said to the people long ago, do not break your 33:09.490 --> 33:13.870 oath, but keep the oaths you have made to the Lord. 33:16.030 --> 33:22.610 But I tell you, do not swear at all, either by heaven, for it is God's throne, 33:22.690 --> 33:27.630 or by the earth, for it is his footstool, or by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the 33:27.630 --> 33:28.330 great King. 33:29.850 --> 33:34.990 And do not swear by your head, for you cannot make even one hair white or 33:34.990 --> 33:35.590 black. 33:36.570 --> 33:39.390 Simply let your yes be yes and your no, no. 33:40.130 --> 33:42.010 Anything beyond this comes from the evil one. 33:45.720 --> 33:51.760 You have heard that it was said eye for eye and tooth for tooth. 33:54.760 --> 33:56.940 But I tell you, do not resist an evil person. 33:59.400 --> 34:01.760 If someone strikes you on the right cheek, 34:05.800 --> 34:07.220 turn to him the other also. 34:08.780 --> 34:14.660 And if someone wants to sue you and take your tunic, let him have your cloak as 34:14.660 --> 34:14.860 well. 34:16.780 --> 34:19.740 If someone forces you to go one mile, go with him two miles. 34:21.900 --> 34:27.520 Give to the one who asks you, and do not turn away from the one who wants to borrow 34:27.520 --> 34:28.060 from you. 34:36.540 --> 34:44.040 You have heard that it was said, love your neighbor and hate your enemy. 34:45.680 --> 34:52.520 But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, that you may 34:52.520 --> 34:54.380 be sons of your Father in heaven. 34:55.300 --> 34:59.320 He causes his son to rise on the evil and the good and sends rain on the righteous 34:59.320 --> 35:00.500 and the unrighteous. 35:02.420 --> 35:06.700 If you love those who love you, what reward will you get? 35:07.660 --> 35:10.180 Are not even the tax collectors doing that? 35:10.620 --> 35:15.420 And if you greet only your brothers, what are you doing more than others? 35:15.520 --> 35:17.080 Do not even pagans do that? 35:19.200 --> 35:24.040 Be perfect therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect. 35:28.240 --> 35:34.460 Be careful not to do your acts of righteousness before men, to be seen by 35:34.460 --> 35:34.660 them. 35:37.780 --> 35:40.460 If you do, you have no reward from your Father in heaven. 35:42.960 --> 35:49.860 So when you give to the needy, do not announce it with trumpets as the 35:49.860 --> 35:50.760 hypocrites do. 35:53.280 --> 35:59.080 In the synagogues and on the streets, to be honored by men. 36:01.800 --> 36:04.540 I tell you the truth, they have received their reward in full. 36:09.100 --> 36:11.820 But when you give to the needy, 36:22.720 --> 36:27.540 do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing. 36:27.560 --> 36:30.120 So that your giving may be in secret. 36:32.220 --> 36:36.740 Then your Father who sees what is done in secret, will reward you. 36:41.480 --> 36:46.120 And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites. 36:46.200 --> 36:51.840 For they love to pray, standing in the synagogues and on the street corners, 36:52.120 --> 36:55.180 to be seen by men. 36:57.620 --> 37:01.000 I tell you the truth, they have received their reward in full. 37:03.980 --> 37:12.240 But when you pray, go into your room, close the door, and pray to your Father 37:12.240 --> 37:13.180 who is unseen. 37:15.600 --> 37:18.820 Then your Father who sees what is done in secret will reward you. 37:20.680 --> 37:28.180 And when you pray, do not keep on babbling like pagans, for they think they will be 37:28.180 --> 37:29.860 heard because of their many words. 37:30.440 --> 37:31.800 Do not be like them. 37:33.040 --> 37:35.780 For your Father knows what you need before you ask him. 37:38.540 --> 37:40.080 This then is how you should pray. 37:43.640 --> 37:49.940 Our Father, in heaven, hallowed be your name. 37:51.500 --> 37:56.560 Your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. 37:58.420 --> 38:00.100 Give us today our daily bread. 38:01.640 --> 38:04.520 Forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors. 38:06.180 --> 38:11.520 And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one. 38:15.410 --> 38:21.250 For if you forgive men when they sin against you, your Heavenly Father will 38:21.250 --> 38:22.310 also forgive you. 38:23.530 --> 38:29.490 But if you do not forgive men their sins, your Father will not forgive your sins. 38:32.410 --> 38:39.130 When you fast, do not look somber as the hypocrites do, for they disfigure their 38:39.130 --> 38:41.150 faces to show men they are fasting. 38:41.950 --> 38:44.610 I tell you the truth, they have received their reward in full. 38:45.530 --> 38:51.070 But when you fast, put oil on your head and wash your face, so that will not be 38:51.070 --> 38:53.530 obvious to men that you are fasting. 38:55.910 --> 38:58.330 But only to your Father who is unseen. 38:59.850 --> 39:02.550 Then your Father who sees what is done in secret will reward you. 39:06.900 --> 39:16.900 Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy, 39:17.780 --> 39:20.080 and where thieves break in and steal. 39:21.700 --> 39:26.580 But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moth and rust do not 39:26.580 --> 39:30.860 destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal. 39:32.520 --> 39:37.460 For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also. 39:40.260 --> 39:51.140 The eye is the lamp of the body. 39:52.340 --> 39:55.540 If your eyes are good, your whole body will be full of light. 39:56.240 --> 40:01.420 But if your eyes are bad, your whole body will be full of darkness. 40:02.840 --> 40:09.760 If then the light within you is darkness, how great is that darkness. 40:12.760 --> 40:15.300 No one can serve two masters. 40:16.120 --> 40:20.620 Either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one 40:20.620 --> 40:22.200 and despise the other. 40:23.720 --> 40:27.420 You cannot serve both God and money. 40:29.540 --> 40:36.980 Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink, 40:37.040 --> 40:39.200 or about your body, what you will wear. 40:41.080 --> 40:46.540 Is not life more important than food, and the body more important than clothes? 40:47.960 --> 40:49.600 Look at the birds of the air. 40:50.740 --> 40:57.840 They do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds 40:57.840 --> 40:58.060 them. 40:59.320 --> 41:02.220 Are you not much more valuable than they? 41:03.640 --> 41:07.240 Who of you, by worrying, can add a single hour to his life? 41:09.080 --> 41:11.140 And why do you worry about clothes? 41:12.500 --> 41:14.800 See how the lilies of the field grow? 41:17.060 --> 41:18.500 Did you not labor or spin? 41:19.140 --> 41:23.820 And yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one 41:23.820 --> 41:24.360 of these. 41:24.360 --> 41:31.460 If that is how God clothed the grass of the field, which is here today and 41:31.460 --> 41:36.960 tomorrow is thrown into the fire, will he not much more clothe you, 41:37.080 --> 41:38.320 O you of little faith? 41:38.620 --> 41:44.920 So do not worry, saying, what shall we eat, or what shall we drink, or what shall 41:44.920 --> 41:45.660 we wear? 41:45.660 --> 41:53.840 For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you 41:53.840 --> 41:54.600 need them. 41:56.880 --> 42:03.200 But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will 42:03.200 --> 42:04.560 be given to you as well. 42:06.740 --> 42:10.860 Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. 42:11.700 --> 42:13.780 Each day has enough trouble of its own. 42:20.200 --> 42:23.780 Do not judge, or you too will be judged. 42:25.780 --> 42:31.100 For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged. 42:32.580 --> 42:36.900 And with the measure you use, it will be measured to you. 42:55.280 --> 43:01.900 Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother's eye and pay no attention to 43:01.900 --> 43:03.440 the plank in your own eye? 43:07.280 --> 43:11.920 How can you say to your brother, let me take the speck out of your eye, 43:13.380 --> 43:17.660 when all the time there is a plank in your own eye, you hypocrite? 43:24.200 --> 43:30.060 First take the plank out of your own eye, then you will see clearly to remove the 43:30.060 --> 43:31.720 speck from your brother's eye. 43:43.010 --> 43:45.110 Do not give dogs what is sacred. 43:47.370 --> 43:49.270 Do not throw your pearls to pigs. 43:50.410 --> 43:54.170 If you do, they may trample them under their feet and then turn and tear you to 43:54.170 --> 43:54.470 pieces. 44:06.910 --> 44:11.750 Ask, and it will be given to you. 44:14.990 --> 44:17.870 Seek, and you will find. 44:22.370 --> 44:31.190 Knock, and the door will be opened to you, for everyone who asks, receives. 44:33.610 --> 44:35.130 He who seeks, finds. 44:36.730 --> 44:44.600 And to him who knocks, the door will be opened. 44:46.620 --> 44:53.780 Which of you, if his son asks for bread, will give him a stone, or if he asks for a 44:53.780 --> 44:55.080 fish, will give him a snake? 44:59.010 --> 45:02.050 If you then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your 45:02.050 --> 45:07.130 children, how much more will your Father in heaven give good gifts to those who ask 45:07.130 --> 45:07.470 him? 45:11.040 --> 45:12.200 So in everything. 45:14.780 --> 45:26.750 Do to others what you would have them do to you, for this sums up the law and the 45:26.750 --> 45:27.230 prophets. 45:30.370 --> 45:36.370 Enter through the narrow gate, for wide is the gate, and broad is the 45:36.370 --> 45:40.430 road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. 45:42.010 --> 45:49.610 But small is the gate, and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find 45:49.610 --> 45:49.750 it. 45:51.830 --> 45:53.830 Watch out for false prophets. 45:55.270 --> 46:02.570 They come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ferocious wolves. 46:03.730 --> 46:05.730 By their fruit you will recognize them. 46:07.890 --> 46:13.070 Do people pick grapes from thorn bushes, or figs from thistles? 46:14.250 --> 46:20.750 Likewise, every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit. 46:21.590 --> 46:27.970 A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, and a bad tree cannot bear good fruit. 46:28.850 --> 46:33.730 Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. 46:34.670 --> 46:38.630 Thus, by their fruit you will recognize them. 46:39.730 --> 46:43.870 Not everyone who says to me, Lord, Lord, will enter the kingdom of heaven, 46:44.910 --> 46:48.890 but only he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. 46:50.750 --> 46:54.930 Many will say to me on that day, Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your 46:54.930 --> 46:58.610 name, and in your name drive out demons, and perform many miracles? 47:01.730 --> 47:05.890 But I will tell them plainly, I never knew you. 47:06.930 --> 47:09.950 Away from me, you evildoers. 47:15.410 --> 47:21.490 Therefore, everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is 47:21.490 --> 47:25.770 like a wise man who built his house on the rock. 47:30.520 --> 47:36.740 The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that 47:36.740 --> 47:41.800 house, yet it did not fall because it had its foundation on the rock. 47:44.620 --> 47:49.540 But everyone who hears these words of mine and does not put them into practice is 47:49.540 --> 47:53.500 like a foolish man who built his house on sand. 47:54.700 --> 48:00.680 The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that 48:00.680 --> 48:04.800 house, and it fell with a great crash. 48:22.580 --> 48:28.600 When Jesus had finished saying these things, the crowds were amazed at his 48:28.600 --> 48:34.720 teaching, because he taught as one who had authority and not as their teachers of the 48:34.720 --> 48:35.000 law. 48:36.340 --> 48:40.780 When he came down from the mountainside, large crowds followed him. 48:57.780 --> 49:02.420 A man with leprosy came and knelt before him and said, Lord, 49:06.520 --> 49:08.120 if you are willing, 49:11.180 --> 49:12.700 you can make me clean. 49:30.680 --> 49:34.800 Jesus reached out his hand and touched the man. 49:35.860 --> 49:37.800 I am willing, he said. 49:40.260 --> 49:41.360 Be clean. 49:43.200 --> 49:46.180 Immediately he was cured of his leprosy. 50:20.560 --> 50:26.440 Then Jesus said to him, See that you don't tell anyone, but go show yourself to the 50:26.440 --> 50:30.360 priest and offer the gift Moses commanded as a testimony to them. 50:45.390 --> 50:50.450 When Jesus had entered Capernaum, a centurion came to him asking for help. 51:12.150 --> 51:19.110 Lord, he said, my servant lies at home paralyzed and in terrible suffering. 51:20.210 --> 51:23.270 Jesus said to him, I will go and heal him. 51:24.090 --> 51:29.050 The centurion replied, Lord, I do not deserve for you to come under my roof, 51:30.250 --> 51:32.830 but just say the word and my servant will be healed. 51:34.610 --> 51:38.730 For I myself am a man under authority, with soldiers under me. 51:40.390 --> 51:44.270 I tell this one go and he goes, that one come and he comes. 51:47.050 --> 51:49.190 I tell my servant do this and he does it. 51:52.110 --> 51:56.490 When Jesus heard this, he was astonished and said to those following him, 51:57.030 --> 52:02.010 I tell you the truth, I have not found anyone in Israel with such great faith. 52:07.750 --> 52:12.810 I say to you that many will come from the east and the west and will take their 52:12.810 --> 52:16.810 places at the feast with Abraham, Isaac and Jacob in the kingdom of heaven. 52:18.850 --> 52:22.730 The subjects of the kingdom will be thrown outside into the darkness where there will 52:22.730 --> 52:25.230 be weeping and gnashing of teeth. 52:28.920 --> 52:34.100 Then Jesus said to the centurion, Go, it will be done just as you believed 52:34.100 --> 52:34.480 it would. 52:41.380 --> 52:44.800 And his servant was healed at that very hour. 53:12.480 --> 53:17.460 When Jesus came into Peter's house, he saw Peter's mother-in-law lying in bed 53:17.460 --> 53:18.100 with a fever. 53:19.360 --> 53:25.120 He touched her hand and the fever left her, and she got up and began to wait on 53:25.120 --> 53:25.360 him. 53:34.480 --> 53:38.540 When evening came, many who were demon-possessed were brought to him, 53:39.060 --> 53:43.320 and he drove out the spirits with a word and healed all the sick. 53:45.840 --> 53:49.360 This was to fulfill what was spoken through the prophet Isaiah. 53:50.040 --> 53:54.240 He took up our infirmities and carried our diseases. 54:04.980 --> 54:09.940 When Jesus saw the crowd around him, he gave orders to cross to the other side 54:09.940 --> 54:10.460 of the lake. 54:12.440 --> 54:21.930 Then a teacher of the law came to him and said, Teacher, I will follow you wherever 54:21.930 --> 54:22.370 you go. 54:23.150 --> 54:28.430 Jesus replied, Boxes have holes and birds of the air have nests, but the Son of Man 54:28.430 --> 54:29.990 has no place to lay his head. 54:40.820 --> 54:46.780 Another disciple said to him, Lord, first let me go and bury my father. 54:48.000 --> 54:53.860 But Jesus told him, Follow me and let the dead bury their own dead. 55:03.560 --> 55:07.440 Then he got into the boat and his disciples followed him. 55:40.040 --> 55:46.640 Without warning, a furious storm came up on the lake, so that the waves swept over 55:46.640 --> 55:47.180 the boat. 55:50.460 --> 55:52.200 But Jesus was sleeping. 55:53.320 --> 55:58.800 The disciples went and woke him, saying, Lord, save us! 55:59.000 --> 56:00.100 We are going to drown! 56:02.600 --> 56:05.500 He replied, You have little faith! 56:06.500 --> 56:08.120 Why are you so afraid? 56:18.340 --> 56:29.190 Then he got up and rebuked the winds and the waves, and it was completely calm. 56:45.660 --> 56:51.060 The men were amazed and asked, What kind of a man is this? 56:52.620 --> 56:57.860 He replied, Even the wind and the waves obey him. 57:31.880 --> 57:37.020 When he arrived at the other side in the region of the Gadarenes, two 57:37.020 --> 57:40.580 demon-possessed men coming from the tombs met him. 57:42.300 --> 57:46.160 They were so violent that no one could pass that way. 57:46.280 --> 57:49.680 What do you want with us, son of God? 57:49.920 --> 57:53.780 They shouted, Have you come here to torture us before the appointed time? 57:57.480 --> 58:01.600 Some distance from them, a large herd of pigs was feeding. 58:02.840 --> 58:10.200 The demons begged Jesus, If you drive us out, send us into the herd of pigs. 58:11.020 --> 58:12.740 He said to them, Go. 58:17.560 --> 58:23.100 So they came out and went into the pigs, and the whole herd rushed down the steep 58:23.100 --> 58:25.600 bank into the lake and died in the water. 58:31.100 --> 58:36.800 Those tending the pigs ran off into the town and reported all this, including what 58:36.800 --> 58:39.100 had happened to the demon-possessed men. 58:44.600 --> 58:51.660 Then the whole town went out to meet Jesus, and when they saw him, they pleaded 58:51.660 --> 58:53.840 with him to leave their region. 58:55.060 --> 59:00.120 Jesus stepped into a boat, crossed over, and came to his own town. 59:15.020 --> 59:18.740 Some men brought to him a paralytic lying on a mat. 59:34.730 --> 59:40.930 When Jesus saw their faith, he said to the paralytic, Take heart, son, your sins are 59:40.930 --> 59:41.310 forgiven. 59:42.690 --> 59:47.410 At this, some of the teachers of the law said to themselves, This fellow is 59:47.410 --> 59:48.050 blaspheming. 59:51.030 --> 59:56.150 Knowing their thoughts, Jesus said, Why do you entertain evil thoughts in your 59:56.150 --> 59:56.690 hearts? 59:57.730 --> 01:00:03.090 Which is easier to say, Your sins are forgiven, or to say, Get up and walk? 01:00:04.970 --> 01:00:08.270 But so that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive 01:00:08.270 --> 01:00:08.730 sins. 01:00:09.510 --> 01:00:12.330 Then he said to the paralytic, Get up. 01:00:46.940 --> 01:00:48.640 Take your mat and go home. 01:00:50.500 --> 01:00:53.200 And the man got up and went home. 01:00:54.880 --> 01:00:58.060 When the crowd saw this, they were filled with awe. 01:00:58.400 --> 01:01:02.300 And they praised God who had given such authority to man. 01:01:18.430 --> 01:01:25.830 As Jesus went on from there, he saw a man named Matthew. 01:01:26.690 --> 01:01:28.690 Sitting at the tax collector's booth. 01:02:08.300 --> 01:02:10.720 Follow me, he told them. 01:02:24.270 --> 01:02:27.090 And Matthew got up and followed him. 01:02:43.640 --> 01:02:49.060 While Jesus was having dinner at Matthew's house, many tax collectors and sinners 01:02:49.060 --> 01:02:51.260 came and ate with him and his disciples. 01:02:52.220 --> 01:02:58.180 When the Pharisees saw this, they asked his disciples, Why does your teacher eat 01:02:58.180 --> 01:02:59.580 with tax collectors and sinners? 01:03:00.660 --> 01:03:06.340 On hearing this, Jesus said, It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick. 01:03:11.420 --> 01:03:13.280 But go and learn what this means. 01:03:14.800 --> 01:03:17.880 I desire mercy, not sacrifice. 01:03:18.280 --> 01:03:21.540 For I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners. 01:03:25.840 --> 01:03:31.220 Then John's disciples came and asked him, How is it that we and the Pharisees fast, 01:03:31.380 --> 01:03:32.980 but your disciples do not fast? 01:03:37.810 --> 01:03:43.870 Jesus answered, How can the guests of the bridegroom mourn while he is with them? 01:03:45.770 --> 01:03:50.210 The time will come when the bridegroom will be taken from them. 01:03:52.110 --> 01:03:53.350 Then they will fast. 01:03:58.880 --> 01:04:02.040 No one sews a patch of unshrunk cloth on an old garment. 01:04:05.300 --> 01:04:08.660 For the patch will pull away from the garment, making the tear worse. 01:04:10.100 --> 01:04:15.100 Neither do men pour new wine into old wineskins. 01:04:15.100 --> 01:04:19.580 If they do, the skins will burst and the wine will run out and the wineskins will 01:04:19.580 --> 01:04:20.040 be ruined. 01:04:20.180 --> 01:04:27.880 No, they pour new wine into new wineskins, and both are preserved. 01:04:37.240 --> 01:04:44.000 While he was saying this, a ruler came and knelt before him and said, My daughter has 01:04:44.000 --> 01:04:47.280 just died, but come and put your hand on her and she will live. 01:04:52.770 --> 01:04:56.650 Jesus got up and went with him, and so did his disciples. 01:05:04.940 --> 01:05:10.640 Just then, a woman who had been subject to bleeding for twelve years, came up behind 01:05:10.640 --> 01:05:13.560 him and touched the edge of his cloak. 01:05:16.060 --> 01:05:21.960 She said to herself, if I only touch his cloak, I will be healed. 01:05:24.180 --> 01:05:26.160 Jesus turned and saw her. 01:05:35.640 --> 01:05:40.440 Take heart, daughter, he said, your faith has healed him. 01:05:57.800 --> 01:06:01.200 And the woman was healed from that moment. 01:06:15.360 --> 01:06:20.700 When Jesus entered the ruler's house and saw the flute players and the noisy crowd, 01:06:20.840 --> 01:06:26.580 he said, Go away, the girl is not dead, but asleep. 01:06:27.460 --> 01:06:28.600 But they laughed at him. 01:06:33.120 --> 01:06:39.660 After the crowd had been put outside, he went in and took the girl by the hand 01:06:39.660 --> 01:06:44.640 and she got up. 01:07:04.040 --> 01:07:07.520 The news of this spread through all that region. 01:07:10.680 --> 01:07:16.880 As Jesus went on from there, two blind men followed him, calling out, Have mercy on 01:07:16.880 --> 01:07:17.920 us, son of David. 01:07:33.560 --> 01:07:38.340 When he had gone indoors, the blind men came to him and he asked them, 01:07:39.180 --> 01:07:41.400 Do you believe that I am able to do this? 01:07:41.660 --> 01:07:42.260 Yes, Lord. 01:07:42.260 --> 01:07:43.300 They replied. 01:07:44.400 --> 01:07:49.380 Then he touched their eyes and said, According to your faith will it be done to 01:07:49.380 --> 01:07:49.520 you. 01:07:51.040 --> 01:07:53.340 And their sight was restored. 01:07:58.920 --> 01:08:03.580 Jesus warned them sternly, See that no one knows about this. 01:08:20.000 --> 01:08:24.660 But they went out and spread the news about him all over that region. 01:08:29.290 --> 01:08:35.350 While they were going out, a man who was demon possessed and could not talk was 01:08:35.350 --> 01:08:36.130 brought to Jesus. 01:08:37.590 --> 01:08:42.490 And when the demon was driven out, the man who had been mute spoke. 01:08:43.650 --> 01:08:48.810 The crowd was amazed and said, Nothing like this has ever been seen in 01:08:48.810 --> 01:08:49.290 Israel. 01:08:52.130 --> 01:08:58.410 But the Pharisees said, It is by the prince of demons that he drives out 01:08:58.410 --> 01:08:59.090 demons. 01:09:23.310 --> 01:09:28.330 Jesus went through all the towns and villages, teaching in their synagogues, 01:09:28.550 --> 01:09:33.950 preaching the good news of the kingdom and healing every disease and sickness. 01:09:36.830 --> 01:09:42.570 When he saw the crowds, he had compassion on them, because they were harassed and 01:09:42.570 --> 01:09:45.170 helpless, like sheep without a shepherd. 01:09:51.840 --> 01:09:58.680 Then he said to his disciples, The harvest is plentiful, but the workers 01:09:58.680 --> 01:09:59.160 are few. 01:10:03.290 --> 01:10:06.630 Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his harvest 01:10:06.630 --> 01:10:06.950 field. 01:10:11.680 --> 01:10:13.120 He called his twelve disciples to the field. 01:10:13.120 --> 01:10:17.000 He called his twelve disciples to him and gave them authority to drive out evil 01:10:17.000 --> 01:10:20.500 spirits and to heal every disease and sickness. 01:10:23.300 --> 01:10:25.840 These are the names of the twelve apostles. 01:10:26.560 --> 01:10:31.900 First, Simon, who is called Peter, and his brother Andrew, James, 01:10:32.120 --> 01:10:37.820 son of Zebedee, and his brother John, Philip and Bartholomew, 01:10:42.380 --> 01:10:45.740 Thomas, and Matthew, the tax collector, 01:10:55.240 --> 01:11:05.240 James, son of Alphaeus, and Thaddaeus, Simon the zealot, and Judas Iscariot, 01:11:05.260 --> 01:11:06.120 who betrayed him. 01:11:13.830 --> 01:11:18.130 These twelve Jesus sent out with the following instructions. 01:11:19.070 --> 01:11:22.750 Do not go among the Gentiles, or enter into the land of the Gentiles. 01:11:22.770 --> 01:11:24.210 Do not go to any town of the Samaritans. 01:11:24.350 --> 01:11:26.270 Go, rather, to the lost sheep of Israel. 01:11:28.130 --> 01:11:29.870 As you go, preach this message. 01:11:31.670 --> 01:11:33.250 The kingdom of heaven is near. 01:11:35.230 --> 01:11:39.190 Heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse those who have leprosy, 01:11:39.310 --> 01:11:40.350 drive out demons. 01:11:41.230 --> 01:11:44.030 Freely you have received, freely give. 01:11:45.870 --> 01:11:49.570 Do not take along any gold or silver or copper in your belts. 01:11:49.570 --> 01:11:54.990 Take no bag for your journey or extra tunic or sandals or a staff, for the 01:11:54.990 --> 01:11:56.230 worker is worth his keep. 01:11:58.810 --> 01:12:03.930 Whatever town or village you enter, search for some worthy person there and 01:12:03.930 --> 01:12:05.670 stay at his house until you leave. 01:12:13.030 --> 01:12:15.790 As you enter the home, give it your greeting. 01:12:16.910 --> 01:12:20.110 If the home is deserving, let your peace rest on it. 01:12:20.550 --> 01:12:23.830 If it is not, let your peace return to you. 01:12:28.850 --> 01:12:34.770 If anyone will not welcome you or listen to your words, shake the dust off your 01:12:34.770 --> 01:12:36.330 feet when you leave that home or town. 01:12:37.490 --> 01:12:42.550 I tell you the truth, it will be more bearable for Sodom and Gomorrah on the day 01:12:42.550 --> 01:12:44.030 of judgment than for that town. 01:12:48.920 --> 01:12:51.960 I am sending you out like sheep among wolves. 01:12:52.740 --> 01:12:57.200 Therefore be as shrewd as snakes and as innocent as dogs. 01:13:00.440 --> 01:13:02.280 Be on your guard against men. 01:13:02.380 --> 01:13:06.300 They will hand you over to the local councils and flog you in their synagogues. 01:13:07.820 --> 01:13:12.020 On my account, you will be brought before governors and kings as witnesses to them 01:13:12.020 --> 01:13:13.100 and to the Gentiles. 01:13:14.200 --> 01:13:19.140 But when they arrest you, do not worry about what to say or how to say it. 01:13:20.420 --> 01:13:25.880 At that time you will be given what to say, for it will not be you speaking, 01:13:26.540 --> 01:13:29.980 but the spirit of your father speaking through you. 01:13:32.280 --> 01:13:36.840 Brother will betray brother to death and a father his child. 01:13:38.360 --> 01:13:41.460 Children will rebel against their parents and have them put to death. 01:13:42.840 --> 01:13:49.540 All men will hate you because of me, but he who stands firm to the end will be 01:13:49.540 --> 01:13:50.000 saved. 01:13:51.280 --> 01:13:54.300 When you are persecuted in one place, flee to another. 01:13:55.320 --> 01:13:59.120 I tell you the truth, you will not finish going through the cities of Israel before 01:13:59.120 --> 01:14:00.560 the Son of Man comes. 01:14:03.690 --> 01:14:09.310 A student is not above his teacher nor a servant above his master. 01:14:10.050 --> 01:14:15.430 It is enough for the student to be like his teacher and the servant like his 01:14:15.430 --> 01:14:15.870 master. 01:14:17.770 --> 01:14:21.830 If the head of the house has been called Beelzebub, how much more the members of 01:14:21.830 --> 01:14:22.470 his household. 01:14:23.310 --> 01:14:25.030 So do not be afraid of them. 01:14:25.850 --> 01:14:30.130 There is nothing concealed that will not be disclosed or hidden that will not be 01:14:30.130 --> 01:14:30.750 made known. 01:14:31.630 --> 01:14:35.510 What I tell you in the dark, speak in the daylight. 01:14:36.450 --> 01:14:40.450 What is whispered in your ear, proclaim from the roofs. 01:14:41.510 --> 01:14:45.350 Do not be afraid of those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. 01:14:46.210 --> 01:14:51.170 Rather, be afraid of the one who can destroy both soul and body in hell. 01:14:56.040 --> 01:14:59.020 Are not two sparrows sold for a penny? 01:14:59.880 --> 01:15:03.340 Yet not one of them will fall to the ground apart from the will of your father, 01:15:03.360 --> 01:15:06.180 and even the very hairs of your head are all numbered. 01:15:06.920 --> 01:15:08.180 So don't be afraid. 01:15:08.960 --> 01:15:11.340 You are worth more than many sparrows. 01:15:15.480 --> 01:15:20.780 Whoever acknowledges me before men, I will also acknowledge him before my 01:15:20.780 --> 01:15:21.640 Father in heaven. 01:15:22.560 --> 01:15:28.560 But whoever disowns me before men, I will disown him before my Father in 01:15:28.560 --> 01:15:28.820 heaven. 01:15:30.300 --> 01:15:34.680 Do not suppose that I have come to bring peace to the earth. 01:15:34.720 --> 01:15:38.600 I did not come to bring peace, but a sword. 01:15:42.910 --> 01:15:48.810 For I have come to turn a man against his father, a daughter against her mother, 01:15:48.970 --> 01:15:51.270 a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law. 01:15:53.130 --> 01:15:58.170 A man's enemies will be the members of his own household. 01:15:59.630 --> 01:16:08.870 Anyone who loves his father or mother more than me is not worthy of me. 01:16:09.150 --> 01:16:15.530 Anyone who loves his son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me. 01:16:16.630 --> 01:16:24.010 And anyone who does not take his cross and follow me is not worthy of me. 01:16:28.450 --> 01:16:32.570 Whoever finds his life will lose it. 01:16:33.930 --> 01:16:39.010 And whoever loses his life for my sake will find it. 01:16:43.680 --> 01:16:46.400 He who receives you receives me. 01:16:47.520 --> 01:16:52.320 And he who receives me receives the one who sent me. 01:16:53.740 --> 01:16:58.860 Anyone who receives a prophet because he is a prophet will receive a prophet's 01:16:58.860 --> 01:16:59.200 reward. 01:16:59.920 --> 01:17:03.880 And anyone who receives a righteous man because he is a righteous man will receive 01:17:03.880 --> 01:17:05.360 a righteous man's reward. 01:17:06.900 --> 01:17:14.080 And if anyone gives even a cup of cold water to one of these little ones because 01:17:14.080 --> 01:17:19.260 he is my disciple, I tell you the truth, he will certainly not lose his reward. 01:18:27.570 --> 01:18:32.730 After Jesus had finished instructing his twelve disciples, he went on from there to 01:18:32.730 --> 01:18:35.450 teach and preach in the towns of Galilee. 01:18:39.020 --> 01:18:44.800 When John heard in prison what Christ was doing, he sent his disciples to ask him, 01:18:44.800 --> 01:18:49.060 Are you the one who wants to come, or should we expect someone else? 01:18:50.680 --> 01:18:54.380 Jesus replied, Go back and report to John what you hear and see. 01:18:55.700 --> 01:18:59.900 The blind receive sight, the lame walk, those who have leprosy are cured, 01:19:00.000 --> 01:19:03.700 the deaf hear, the dead are raised, and the good news is preached to the poor. 01:19:05.040 --> 01:19:07.800 Blessed is the man who does not fall away on account of me. 01:19:12.570 --> 01:19:17.410 As John's disciples were leaving, Jesus began to speak to the crowd about 01:19:17.410 --> 01:19:17.870 John. 01:19:18.430 --> 01:19:20.330 What did you go out into the desert to see? 01:19:21.070 --> 01:19:22.650 A reed swayed by the wind? 01:19:23.750 --> 01:19:25.450 If not, what did you go out to see? 01:19:25.510 --> 01:19:27.370 A man dressed in fine clothes? 01:19:28.570 --> 01:19:31.170 No, those who wear fine clothes are in king's palaces. 01:19:33.050 --> 01:19:34.530 Then what did you go out to see? 01:19:35.090 --> 01:19:35.830 A prophet? 01:19:36.330 --> 01:19:39.550 Yes, I tell you, and more than a prophet. 01:19:40.270 --> 01:19:44.050 This is the one about whom it is written, I will send my messenger ahead of you who 01:19:44.050 --> 01:19:45.670 will prepare your way before you. 01:19:47.030 --> 01:19:52.590 I tell you the truth, among those born of women, there has not risen anyone greater 01:19:52.590 --> 01:19:53.630 than John the Baptist. 01:19:54.890 --> 01:19:59.790 Yet he who is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he. 01:20:01.250 --> 01:20:04.730 From the days of John the Baptist until now, the kingdom of heaven has been 01:20:04.730 --> 01:20:08.650 forcefully advancing, and forceful men lay hold of it. 01:20:09.410 --> 01:20:12.330 For all the prophets and the law prophesied until John. 01:20:13.250 --> 01:20:17.910 And if you are willing to accept it, he is the Elijah who was to come. 01:20:19.150 --> 01:20:20.670 He who has ears, let him hear. 01:20:28.920 --> 01:20:31.120 To what can I compare this generation? 01:20:32.600 --> 01:20:40.620 They are like little children, sitting in the marketplaces, calling out 01:20:40.620 --> 01:20:44.620 to others, we played the flute for you, and you did not dance. 01:20:45.140 --> 01:20:48.840 We sang a dirge, and you did not mourn. 01:20:55.470 --> 01:21:00.630 For John came neither eating nor drinking, and they say, he has a demon. 01:21:02.230 --> 01:21:06.810 The son of man came eating and drinking, and they say here is a glutton, 01:21:07.310 --> 01:21:11.850 and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners. 01:21:17.610 --> 01:21:20.410 But wisdom is proved right by her actions. 01:21:35.860 --> 01:21:41.120 Then Jesus began to denounce the cities in which most of his miracles had been 01:21:41.120 --> 01:21:44.100 performed, because they did not repent. 01:21:44.900 --> 01:21:46.220 Woe to you, Corazin! 01:21:49.480 --> 01:21:51.160 Woe to you, Bethsaida! 01:22:02.680 --> 01:22:08.680 If the miracles that were performed in you had been performed in Tyre and Sidon, 01:22:09.000 --> 01:22:13.780 they would have repented long ago in sackcloth and ashes. 01:22:19.330 --> 01:22:26.790 But I tell you, it will be more bearable for Tyre and Sidon on the day of judgment 01:22:26.790 --> 01:22:29.050 than for you. 01:22:36.460 --> 01:22:40.940 And you, Capernaum, will you be lifted up to the skies? 01:22:41.100 --> 01:22:41.380 No. 01:22:44.440 --> 01:22:46.480 You will go down to the depths. 01:22:48.020 --> 01:22:59.040 If the miracles that were performed in you had been performed in Sodom, it would have 01:22:59.040 --> 01:23:00.100 remained to this day. 01:23:07.100 --> 01:23:15.400 But I tell you, it will be more bearable for Sodom on the day of judgment than for 01:23:15.400 --> 01:23:15.680 you. 01:23:41.350 --> 01:23:48.770 At that time, Jesus said, I praise you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, 01:23:51.600 --> 01:23:59.440 because you have hidden these things from the wise and learned and revealed them to 01:23:59.440 --> 01:24:00.160 little children. 01:24:06.560 --> 01:24:09.060 Yes, Father, for this was your good pleasure. 01:24:22.580 --> 01:24:26.020 All things have been committed to me by my Father. 01:24:28.500 --> 01:24:35.060 No one knows the Son except the Father, and no one knows the Father except the 01:24:35.060 --> 01:24:38.500 Son, and those to whom the Son chooses to reveal Him. 01:24:48.870 --> 01:24:58.110 Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. 01:24:59.890 --> 01:25:07.990 Take my yoke upon you, and learn for me, for I am gentle and humble in heart. 01:25:10.970 --> 01:25:17.010 And you will find rest for your souls, for my yoke is easy, and my burden is 01:25:17.010 --> 01:25:17.330 light. 01:25:24.540 --> 01:25:28.620 At that time, Jesus went through the grain fields on the Sabbath. 01:25:32.760 --> 01:25:38.440 His disciples were hungry, and began to pick some heads of grain and eat them. 01:25:49.880 --> 01:25:55.920 When the Pharisees saw this, they said to Him, Look, your disciples are doing what 01:25:55.920 --> 01:25:57.460 is unlawful on the Sabbath. 01:25:58.660 --> 01:26:03.700 He answered, Haven't you read what David did when he and his companions were 01:26:03.700 --> 01:26:04.080 hungry? 01:26:04.640 --> 01:26:10.100 He entered the house of God, and he and his companions ate the consecrated bread, 01:26:10.100 --> 01:26:14.540 which was not lawful for them to do, but only for the priests. 01:26:20.010 --> 01:26:26.070 Or haven't you read in the law that on the Sabbath, the priests in the temple 01:26:26.070 --> 01:26:28.030 desecrate the day, and yet are innocent? 01:26:31.110 --> 01:26:33.750 I tell you that one greater than the temple is here. 01:26:36.890 --> 01:26:42.250 If you had known what these words mean, I desire mercy, not sacrifice. 01:26:43.110 --> 01:26:44.790 You would not have condemned the innocent, 01:26:50.280 --> 01:26:52.840 for the Son of Man is Lord of the Sabbath. 01:27:07.910 --> 01:27:12.770 Going on from that place, he went into their synagogue, and a man with a 01:27:12.770 --> 01:27:14.450 shriveled hand was there. 01:27:16.050 --> 01:27:24.830 Looking for a reason to accuse Jesus, they asked him, Is it lawful to heal on 01:27:24.830 --> 01:27:25.490 the Sabbath? 01:27:52.820 --> 01:27:58.720 He said to them, If any of you has a sheep, and it falls into a pit on the 01:27:58.720 --> 01:28:01.020 Sabbath, will you not take hold of it and lift it out? 01:28:03.160 --> 01:28:05.500 How much more valuable is a man than a sheep? 01:28:15.730 --> 01:28:17.970 Therefore it is lawful to do good on the Sabbath. 01:28:18.590 --> 01:28:21.230 Then he said to the man, Stretch out your hand. 01:28:28.710 --> 01:28:35.150 So he stretched it out, and it was completely restored, just as sound as the 01:28:35.150 --> 01:28:35.390 other. 01:28:38.590 --> 01:28:43.130 But the Pharisees went out and plotted how they might kill Jesus. 01:28:50.390 --> 01:28:53.630 Aware of this, Jesus withdrew from that place. 01:28:54.590 --> 01:29:00.430 Many followed him, and he healed all their sick, warning them not to tell who he was. 01:29:06.030 --> 01:29:10.930 This was to fulfill what was spoken through the prophet Isaiah. 01:29:13.090 --> 01:29:19.510 Here is my servant whom I have chosen, the one I love, in whom I delight. 01:29:20.190 --> 01:29:26.210 I will put my spirit on him, and he will proclaim justice to the nations. 01:29:28.110 --> 01:29:30.850 He will not quarrel or cry out. 01:29:31.710 --> 01:29:34.050 No one will hear his voice in the streets. 01:29:35.010 --> 01:29:40.230 A bruised reed he will not break, and a smoldering wick he will not snuff 01:29:40.230 --> 01:29:43.750 out, till he leads justice to victory. 01:29:44.690 --> 01:29:49.190 In his name, nations will put their hope. 01:29:58.920 --> 01:30:03.780 Then they brought him a demon-possessed man, who was blind and mute. 01:30:06.780 --> 01:30:11.140 And Jesus healed him, so that he could both talk and see. 01:30:12.740 --> 01:30:17.840 All the people were astonished and said, Could this be the son of David? 01:30:19.640 --> 01:30:25.580 But when the Pharisees heard this, they said, It's only by Beelzebub, 01:30:25.840 --> 01:30:34.540 the prince of demons, that this fellow drives out demons. 01:30:51.740 --> 01:30:57.860 Jesus knew their thoughts, and said to them, Every kingdom divided against itself 01:30:57.860 --> 01:31:04.080 will be ruined, and every city or household divided against itself will not 01:31:04.080 --> 01:31:04.500 stand. 01:31:05.960 --> 01:31:10.300 If Satan drives out Satan, he is divided against himself. 01:31:10.420 --> 01:31:11.960 How then can his kingdom stand? 01:31:14.660 --> 01:31:21.420 And if I drive out demons by Beelzebub, by whom do your people drive them out? 01:31:24.180 --> 01:31:25.920 So then they will be your judges. 01:31:31.690 --> 01:31:34.810 But if I drive out demons by the Spirit of God, 01:31:38.120 --> 01:31:40.420 then the kingdom of God has come upon you. 01:31:43.780 --> 01:31:50.760 Or again, how can anyone enter a strong man's house and carry off his possessions, 01:31:50.860 --> 01:31:53.120 unless he first ties up the strong man? 01:31:53.240 --> 01:31:55.040 Then he can rob his house. 01:31:57.180 --> 01:31:59.440 He who is not with me is against me, 01:32:06.510 --> 01:32:09.810 and he who does not gather with me scatters. 01:32:25.950 --> 01:32:27.150 And so I tell you, 01:32:31.240 --> 01:32:39.120 every sin and blasphemy will be forgiven men, but the blasphemy against the Spirit 01:32:39.120 --> 01:32:40.140 will not be forgiven. 01:32:41.260 --> 01:32:47.000 Anyone who speaks a word against the Son of Man will be forgiven, but anyone who 01:32:47.000 --> 01:32:51.800 speaks against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven, either in this age or in the age 01:32:51.800 --> 01:32:52.240 to come. 01:32:54.620 --> 01:33:01.980 Make a tree good, and its fruit will be good. 01:33:07.110 --> 01:33:12.590 Or make a tree bad, and its fruit will be bad, for a tree is recognized by its 01:33:12.590 --> 01:33:12.890 fruit. 01:33:33.770 --> 01:33:40.590 You brood of vipers, how can you who are evil say anything good? 01:33:42.730 --> 01:33:45.330 Out of the overflow of the heart the mouth speaks. 01:33:49.150 --> 01:33:55.430 The good man brings good things out of the good stored up in him, and the evil man 01:33:55.430 --> 01:33:58.270 brings evil things out of the evil stored up in him. 01:34:00.790 --> 01:34:04.230 But I tell you that men will have to give account on the day of judgment for every 01:34:04.230 --> 01:34:08.650 careless word they have spoken, for by your words you will be acquitted, 01:34:10.310 --> 01:34:14.570 and by your words you will be condemned. 01:34:16.730 --> 01:34:23.210 Then some of the Pharisees and teachers of the law said to him, Teacher, we want to 01:34:23.210 --> 01:34:25.410 see a miraculous sign from you. 01:34:25.410 --> 01:34:31.210 He answered, A wicked and adulterous generation asks for a miraculous sign, 01:34:31.590 --> 01:34:37.090 but none will be given it except the sign of the prophet Jonah. 01:34:39.690 --> 01:34:43.170 For as Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of a huge fish, 01:34:43.210 --> 01:34:47.190 so the Son of Man will be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth. 01:34:48.470 --> 01:34:54.570 The men of Nineveh will stand up at the judgment with this generation and condemn 01:34:54.570 --> 01:34:57.770 it, for they repented at the preaching of Jonah. 01:34:59.910 --> 01:35:02.550 And now one greater than Jonah is here. 01:35:08.160 --> 01:35:13.140 The queen of the south will rise at the judgment with this generation and condemn 01:35:13.140 --> 01:35:17.940 it, for she came from the ends of the earth to listen to Solomon's wisdom, 01:35:18.680 --> 01:35:21.340 and now one greater than Solomon is here. 01:35:34.440 --> 01:35:42.140 When an evil spirit comes out of a man, it goes through arid places seeking rest 01:35:42.140 --> 01:35:43.200 and does not find it. 01:35:44.300 --> 01:35:46.600 Then it says, I will return to the house I left. 01:35:47.240 --> 01:35:54.080 When it arrives, it finds the house unoccupied, swept clean, and put in order. 01:35:55.140 --> 01:35:59.380 Then it goes and takes with it seven other spirits more wicked than itself, 01:35:59.940 --> 01:36:03.900 and they go in and live there. 01:36:05.480 --> 01:36:08.540 And the final condition of that man is worse than the first. 01:36:18.230 --> 01:36:20.670 That is how it will be with this wicked generation. 01:36:22.290 --> 01:36:26.290 While Jesus was still talking to the crowd, his mother and brother stood 01:36:26.290 --> 01:36:28.450 outside wanting to speak to him. 01:36:29.410 --> 01:36:34.190 Someone told him, Your mother and brothers are standing outside wanting to speak to 01:36:34.190 --> 01:36:34.350 you. 01:36:35.330 --> 01:36:39.770 He replied to him, Who is my mother and who are my brothers? 01:36:42.390 --> 01:36:48.310 Pointing to his disciples, he said, Here are my mother and my brothers. 01:36:50.130 --> 01:36:58.390 For whoever does the will of my father in heaven is my brother and sister and 01:36:58.390 --> 01:36:58.690 mother. 01:37:10.780 --> 01:37:14.640 That same day Jesus went out of the house and sat by the lake. 01:37:16.540 --> 01:37:21.640 Such large crowds gathered round him that he got into a boat and sat in it, 01:37:22.000 --> 01:37:24.140 while all the people stood on the shore. 01:37:29.500 --> 01:37:37.620 Then he told them many things in parables, saying, A farmer went out to sow his seed. 01:37:39.360 --> 01:37:44.260 As he was scattering the seed, some fell along the path, and the birds 01:37:44.260 --> 01:37:45.520 came and ate it up. 01:37:47.600 --> 01:37:51.320 Some fell on rocky places where it did not have much soil. 01:37:51.740 --> 01:37:56.660 It sprang up quickly because the soil was shallow, but when the sun came up, 01:37:56.740 --> 01:38:00.520 the plants were scorched and they withered because they had no root. 01:38:02.120 --> 01:38:05.880 Other seed fell among thorns, which grew up and choked the plants. 01:38:07.620 --> 01:38:15.160 Still other seed fell on good soil, where it produced a crop a hundred, 01:38:15.800 --> 01:38:19.040 sixty, or thirty times what was sown. 01:38:28.120 --> 01:38:29.540 He who has ears, let him hear. 01:38:55.470 --> 01:39:01.150 The disciples came to him and asked, Why do you speak to the people in 01:39:01.150 --> 01:39:01.570 parables? 01:39:02.690 --> 01:39:07.090 He replied, The knowledge of the secrets of the kingdom of heaven has been given to 01:39:07.090 --> 01:39:08.210 you, but not to them. 01:39:09.470 --> 01:39:12.930 Whoever has will be given more, and he will have an abundance. 01:39:13.730 --> 01:39:16.410 Whoever does not have, even what he has will be taken from him. 01:39:19.050 --> 01:39:21.010 This is why I speak to them in parables. 01:39:22.370 --> 01:39:24.930 Though seeing, they do not see. 01:39:26.210 --> 01:39:29.130 Though hearing, they do not hear or understand. 01:39:30.550 --> 01:39:33.390 In them was fulfilled the prophecy of Isaiah. 01:39:37.060 --> 01:39:40.180 You will be ever hearing, but never understanding. 01:39:40.960 --> 01:39:44.580 You will be ever seeing, but never perceiving. 01:39:46.020 --> 01:39:48.480 For this people's heart has become calloused. 01:39:49.160 --> 01:39:53.380 They hardly hear with their ears, and they have closed their eyes. 01:39:54.880 --> 01:40:01.420 Otherwise they might see with their eyes, hear with their ears, understand with 01:40:01.420 --> 01:40:03.980 their hearts, and turn. 01:40:06.080 --> 01:40:07.880 And I would heal them. 01:40:10.760 --> 01:40:16.360 But blessed are your eyes, because they see, and your ears because they hear. 01:40:16.440 --> 01:40:21.480 For I tell you the truth, many prophets and righteous men longed to see what you 01:40:21.480 --> 01:40:26.160 see, but did not see it, and to hear what you hear, but did not hear it. 01:40:27.200 --> 01:40:29.460 Listen then to what the parable of the sower means. 01:40:30.760 --> 01:40:36.240 When anyone hears the message about the kingdom and does not understand it, 01:40:36.520 --> 01:40:39.880 the evil one comes and snatches away what was sown in his heart. 01:40:40.520 --> 01:40:43.700 This is the seed sown along the path. 01:40:45.320 --> 01:40:50.140 The one who received the seed that fell on rocky places is the man who hears the word 01:40:50.140 --> 01:40:52.280 and at once receives it with joy. 01:40:52.920 --> 01:40:57.040 But since he has no root, he lasts only a short time. 01:40:57.220 --> 01:41:01.140 When trouble or persecution comes because of the word, he quickly falls away. 01:41:03.100 --> 01:41:07.980 The one who received the seed that fell among the thorns is the man who hears the 01:41:07.980 --> 01:41:08.260 word. 01:41:10.360 --> 01:41:14.880 But the worries of this life and the deceitfulness of wealth choke it, 01:41:15.520 --> 01:41:16.440 making it unfruitful. 01:41:18.580 --> 01:41:23.540 But the one who received the seed that fell on good soil is the man who hears the 01:41:23.540 --> 01:41:25.860 word and understands it. 01:41:26.180 --> 01:41:33.300 He produces a crop yielding a hundred, sixty, or thirty times what was sown. 01:41:43.770 --> 01:41:45.950 Jesus told them another parable. 01:41:47.070 --> 01:41:52.070 The kingdom of heaven is like a man who sowed good seed in his field. 01:41:53.870 --> 01:41:58.970 But while everyone was sleeping, his enemy came and sowed weeds among the 01:41:58.970 --> 01:42:00.950 wheat and went away. 01:42:02.210 --> 01:42:06.670 When the wheat sprouted and formed heads, then the weeds also appeared. 01:42:07.990 --> 01:42:14.830 The owner's servants came to him and said, Sir, didn't you sow good seed in your 01:42:14.830 --> 01:42:15.250 field? 01:42:16.010 --> 01:42:18.030 Where then did the weeds come from? 01:42:18.910 --> 01:42:20.830 An enemy did this, he replied. 01:42:21.470 --> 01:42:26.090 The servants asked him, Do you want us to go and pull them up? 01:42:26.430 --> 01:42:28.150 No, he answered. 01:42:30.910 --> 01:42:35.230 Because while you are pulling the weeds, you may root up the wheat with them. 01:42:36.910 --> 01:42:39.070 Let both grow together until the harvest. 01:42:40.130 --> 01:42:44.450 At that time I will tell the harvesters, first collect the weeds and tie them in 01:42:44.450 --> 01:42:45.650 bundles to be burned. 01:42:46.470 --> 01:42:49.670 Then gather the wheat and bring it into my barn. 01:42:53.550 --> 01:42:55.350 He told them another parable. 01:42:55.870 --> 01:43:00.930 The kingdom of heaven is like a mustard seed which a man took and planted in his 01:43:00.930 --> 01:43:01.390 field. 01:43:02.110 --> 01:43:07.950 Though it is the smallest of all your seeds, yet when it grows, it is the 01:43:07.950 --> 01:43:13.450 largest of garden plants and becomes a tree so that the birds of the air come and 01:43:13.450 --> 01:43:14.510 perch in its branches. 01:43:16.150 --> 01:43:18.570 He told them still another parable. 01:43:19.450 --> 01:43:25.830 The kingdom of heaven is like yeast that a woman took and mixed into a large amount 01:43:25.830 --> 01:43:28.490 of flour until it worked all through the dough. 01:43:32.230 --> 01:43:35.610 Jesus spoke all these things to the crowd in parables. 01:43:36.530 --> 01:43:39.970 He did not say anything to them without using a parable. 01:43:40.670 --> 01:43:43.470 So was fulfilled what was spoken through the prophet. 01:43:43.990 --> 01:43:47.010 I will open my mouth in parables. 01:43:47.690 --> 01:43:52.290 I will utter things hidden since the creation of the world. 01:43:58.760 --> 01:44:01.300 Then he left the crowd and went into the house. 01:44:02.200 --> 01:44:07.680 His disciples came to him and said, Explain to us the parable of the weeds in 01:44:07.680 --> 01:44:08.200 the field. 01:44:11.740 --> 01:44:16.460 He answered, The one who sowed the good seed is the son of man. 01:44:18.440 --> 01:44:24.160 The field is the world, and the good seed stands for the sons of the kingdom. 01:44:26.260 --> 01:44:31.920 The weeds are the sons of the evil one, and the enemy who sows them is the devil. 01:44:33.680 --> 01:44:38.800 The harvest is the end of the age, and the harvesters are angels. 01:44:41.660 --> 01:44:46.980 As the weeds are pulled up and burned in the fire, so it will be at the end of the 01:44:46.980 --> 01:44:47.320 age. 01:44:48.300 --> 01:44:54.840 The son of man will send out his angels, and they will weed out of his kingdom 01:44:54.840 --> 01:44:59.320 everything that causes sin and all who do evil. 01:45:01.040 --> 01:45:04.220 And they will throw them into the fiery furnace where they will be weeping and 01:45:04.220 --> 01:45:05.020 gnashing their teeth. 01:45:07.480 --> 01:45:13.560 Then the righteous will shine like the sun in the kingdom of their father. 01:45:15.000 --> 01:45:16.360 He who has ears, let him hear. 01:45:19.420 --> 01:45:27.000 The kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field. 01:45:28.620 --> 01:45:35.040 When a man found it, he hid it again, and then in his joy went and sold all he 01:45:35.040 --> 01:45:36.640 had and bought that field. 01:45:38.140 --> 01:45:44.540 Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant looking for fine pearls. 01:45:45.060 --> 01:45:49.460 When he found one of great value, he went away and sold everything he had 01:45:49.460 --> 01:45:51.500 and bought it. 01:45:54.780 --> 01:46:00.420 Once again, the kingdom of heaven is like a net that was let down into the lake and 01:46:00.420 --> 01:46:01.820 caught all kinds of fish. 01:46:02.400 --> 01:46:11.160 When it was full, the fishermen pulled it up on the baskets, but threw the bad away. 01:46:13.060 --> 01:46:14.920 This is how it will be at the end of the age. 01:46:14.960 --> 01:46:20.300 The angels will come and separate the wicked from the righteous and throw them 01:46:20.300 --> 01:46:23.180 into the fiery furnace where they will be weeping and gnashing their teeth. 01:46:27.040 --> 01:46:28.460 Have you understood all these things? 01:46:28.640 --> 01:46:29.600 Jesus asked. 01:46:30.100 --> 01:46:30.480 Yes. 01:46:30.980 --> 01:46:31.660 They replied. 01:46:40.960 --> 01:46:47.040 He said to them... Therefore, every teacher of the law who has been instructed 01:46:47.040 --> 01:46:54.200 about the kingdom of heaven is like the owner of a house who brings out of his 01:46:54.200 --> 01:46:56.680 storeroom new treasures as well as old. 01:46:58.860 --> 01:47:03.120 When Jesus had finished these parables, he moved on from there. 01:47:04.700 --> 01:47:08.780 Coming to his hometown, he began teaching the people in their synagogue, 01:47:09.380 --> 01:47:11.080 and they were amazed. 01:47:11.640 --> 01:47:15.560 Where did this man get this and these miraculous powers? 01:47:16.000 --> 01:47:16.740 They asked. 01:47:17.480 --> 01:47:19.320 Isn't this the carpenter's son? 01:47:19.580 --> 01:47:20.900 Isn't his mother's name Mary? 01:47:21.520 --> 01:47:24.120 And aren't his brothers James, Joseph, Simon, and Judas? 01:47:25.600 --> 01:47:27.200 Aren't all his sisters with us? 01:47:27.800 --> 01:47:29.520 Where then did this man get all these things? 01:47:30.300 --> 01:47:34.300 And they took offense at him, but Jesus said to them. 01:47:34.520 --> 01:47:40.520 Only in his hometown and in his own house is a prophet without honor. 01:47:54.580 --> 01:47:59.300 And he did not do many miracles there because of their lack of faith. 01:48:13.010 --> 01:48:18.390 At that time, Herod the Tetrarch heard the reports about Jesus, and he said to his 01:48:18.390 --> 01:48:21.670 attendants, This is John the Baptist. 01:48:22.510 --> 01:48:24.390 He has risen from the dead. 01:48:25.270 --> 01:48:28.090 That is why miraculous powers are at work in him. 01:48:29.390 --> 01:48:34.210 Now, Herod had arrested John and bound him and put him in prison because of Herodias. 01:48:34.210 --> 01:48:35.950 His brother Philip's wife. 01:48:36.710 --> 01:48:41.490 John had been saying to him, It is not lawful for you to have her. 01:48:43.410 --> 01:48:47.230 Herod wanted to kill John, but he was afraid of the people because they 01:48:47.230 --> 01:48:48.410 considered him a prophet. 01:48:54.080 --> 01:49:00.680 On Herod's birthday, the daughter of Herodias danced for them and pleased Herod 01:49:00.680 --> 01:49:07.960 so much that he promised with an oath to give her whatever she asked. 01:49:17.640 --> 01:49:22.700 Prompted by her mother, she said, Give me here on a platter the head of John 01:49:22.700 --> 01:49:23.400 the Baptist. 01:49:24.980 --> 01:49:29.920 The king was distressed, but because of his oaths and his dinner guests, 01:49:30.580 --> 01:49:36.540 he ordered that her request be granted and had John beheaded in the prison. 01:49:41.080 --> 01:49:47.140 His head was brought in on a platter and given to the girl who carried it to her 01:49:47.140 --> 01:49:47.400 mother. 01:49:54.060 --> 01:49:57.360 John's disciples came and took his body and buried it. 01:49:57.980 --> 01:49:59.920 Then they went and told Jesus. 01:50:00.940 --> 01:50:06.380 When Jesus heard what had happened, he withdrew by boat privately to a 01:50:06.380 --> 01:50:07.460 solitary place. 01:51:02.440 --> 01:51:05.880 Hearing of this, the crowds followed him on foot from the towns. 01:51:20.520 --> 01:51:27.140 When Jesus landed and saw a large crowd, he had compassion on them and healed their 01:51:27.140 --> 01:51:27.420 sick. 01:51:45.190 --> 01:51:50.910 As evening approached, the disciples came to him and said, This is a remote place 01:51:50.910 --> 01:51:52.270 and it's already getting late. 01:51:53.830 --> 01:51:57.630 Send the crowds away so they can go to the villages and buy themselves some food. 01:51:57.970 --> 01:52:00.950 Jesus replied, They do not need to go away. 01:52:01.670 --> 01:52:02.850 You give them something to eat. 01:52:03.010 --> 01:52:05.990 We have here only five loaves of bread and two fish. 01:52:05.990 --> 01:52:11.590 They answered, Bring them here to me, he said. 01:52:48.340 --> 01:52:51.440 And he directed the people to sit down on the grass. 01:53:05.030 --> 01:53:11.350 Taking the five loaves and the two fish and looking up to heaven, he gave thanks 01:53:11.350 --> 01:53:12.870 and broke the loaves. 01:53:33.720 --> 01:53:38.620 Then he gave them to the disciples and the disciples gave them to the people. 01:53:57.890 --> 01:54:00.890 They all ate and were satisfied. 01:54:01.850 --> 01:54:07.450 And the disciples picked up 12 basketfuls of broken pieces that were left over. 01:54:08.490 --> 01:54:15.090 The number of those who ate was about 5,000 men, besides women and children. 01:54:45.310 --> 01:54:50.150 Immediately, Jesus made the disciples get into the boat and go on ahead of him to 01:54:50.150 --> 01:54:53.290 the other side while he dismissed the crowd. 01:54:59.700 --> 01:55:04.360 After he had dismissed them, he went up on a mountainside by himself to pray. 01:55:19.740 --> 01:55:23.260 When evening came, he was there alone. 01:55:27.280 --> 01:55:33.460 But the boat was already a considerable distance from land, buffeted by the waves 01:55:33.460 --> 01:55:35.240 because the wind was against it. 01:55:43.700 --> 01:55:48.980 During the fourth watch of the night, Jesus went out to them, walking on the 01:55:48.980 --> 01:55:49.300 lake. 01:55:49.620 --> 01:55:53.180 When the disciples saw him walking on the lake, they were terrified. 01:55:53.300 --> 01:55:54.160 It's a ghost! 01:55:55.080 --> 01:55:58.080 They said, and cried out in fear. 01:56:01.200 --> 01:56:06.480 Jesus immediately said to them, Take courage, it is I, don't be afraid. 01:56:19.420 --> 01:56:26.320 Lord, if it is you, Peter replied, tell me to come to you on the water. 01:56:28.620 --> 01:56:29.300 Come! 01:56:30.620 --> 01:56:31.020 He said. 01:56:33.440 --> 01:56:38.800 Then Peter got down out of the boat, walked on the water, and came toward 01:56:38.800 --> 01:56:39.280 Jesus. 01:56:48.370 --> 01:56:50.970 But when he saw the wind, he was afraid. 01:56:54.130 --> 01:56:56.770 And beginning to sink, cried out, 01:57:01.160 --> 01:57:03.600 Lord, save me! 01:57:04.820 --> 01:57:08.460 Immediately, Jesus reached out his hand and caught him. 01:57:16.010 --> 01:57:18.370 Oh, you of little faith! 01:57:18.690 --> 01:57:19.470 He said. 01:57:20.330 --> 01:57:21.690 Why did you doubt? 01:57:48.160 --> 01:57:52.260 And when they climbed into the boat, the wind died down. 01:57:53.220 --> 01:57:59.820 And those who were in the boat worshipped him, saying, Truly, you are the Son of 01:57:59.820 --> 01:58:00.200 God. 01:58:19.620 --> 01:58:22.560 When they had crossed over, they landed at Gennesaret. 01:58:23.200 --> 01:58:28.280 And when the men of that place recognized Jesus, they sent word to all the 01:58:28.280 --> 01:58:29.220 surrounding country. 01:58:30.200 --> 01:58:35.940 People brought all their sick to him and begged him to let the sick just touch the 01:58:35.940 --> 01:58:37.280 edge of his cloak. 01:58:38.560 --> 01:58:41.400 And all who touched him were healed. 01:59:01.240 --> 01:59:06.680 Then some Pharisees and teachers of the law came to Jesus from Jerusalem and 01:59:06.680 --> 01:59:10.800 asked, Why do your disciples break the tradition of the elders? 01:59:11.460 --> 01:59:13.780 They don't wash their hands before they eat. 01:59:15.420 --> 01:59:19.580 Jesus replied, And why do you break the command of God for the sake of your 01:59:19.580 --> 01:59:20.120 tradition? 01:59:20.960 --> 01:59:23.200 For God said, Honor your father and mother. 01:59:24.760 --> 01:59:27.800 And anyone who curses his father or mother must be put to death. 01:59:27.880 --> 01:59:32.980 But you say that if a man says to his father or mother, Whatever help you might 01:59:32.980 --> 01:59:35.780 otherwise have received from me is a gift devoted to God. 01:59:36.780 --> 01:59:39.120 He is not to honor his father with it. 01:59:39.780 --> 01:59:43.460 Thus you nullify the word of God for the sake of your tradition. 01:59:46.180 --> 01:59:47.300 You hypocrites. 01:59:53.540 --> 01:59:56.200 Isaiah was right when he prophesied about you. 01:59:56.980 --> 01:59:59.060 These people honor me with their lips. 02:00:01.380 --> 02:00:03.580 But their hearts are far from me. 02:00:03.660 --> 02:00:05.040 They worship me in vain. 02:00:06.160 --> 02:00:08.600 Their teachings are but rules taught by men. 02:00:19.590 --> 02:00:24.130 Jesus called a crowd to him and said, Listen and understand. 02:00:27.190 --> 02:00:32.790 What goes into a man's mouth does not make him unclean. 02:00:38.370 --> 02:00:45.310 But what comes out of his mouth, that is what makes him unclean. 02:01:10.700 --> 02:01:15.380 Then the disciples came to him and asked, Do you know that the Pharisees were 02:01:15.380 --> 02:01:16.560 offended when they heard this? 02:01:17.540 --> 02:01:22.280 He replied, Every plant that my heavenly father has not planted will be pulled up 02:01:22.280 --> 02:01:22.940 by the roots. 02:01:29.780 --> 02:01:30.460 Leave them. 02:01:31.340 --> 02:01:32.780 They are blind guides. 02:01:32.900 --> 02:01:36.620 If a blind man leads a blind man, both will fall into a pit. 02:01:40.560 --> 02:01:43.500 Peter said, Explain the parable to us. 02:01:44.380 --> 02:01:45.840 Are you still so dull? 02:01:48.120 --> 02:01:55.340 Jesus asked them, Don't you see that whatever enters the mouth goes into the 02:01:55.340 --> 02:01:57.600 stomach and then out of the body? 02:01:59.120 --> 02:02:03.720 But the things that come out of the mouth come from the heart. 02:02:04.740 --> 02:02:06.740 And these make a man unclean. 02:02:06.820 --> 02:02:12.680 For out of the heart come evil thoughts, murder, adultery, sexual immorality, 02:02:12.880 --> 02:02:14.720 theft, false testimony, slander. 02:02:15.280 --> 02:02:17.360 These are what make a man unclean. 02:02:18.300 --> 02:02:23.640 But eating with unwashed hands does not make him unclean. 02:02:37.570 --> 02:02:41.970 Leaving that place, Jesus withdrew to the region of Tyre and Sidon. 02:02:43.010 --> 02:02:49.570 A Canaanite woman from that vicinity came to him, crying out, Lord, son of David, 02:02:49.770 --> 02:02:51.290 have mercy on me. 02:02:51.690 --> 02:02:53.710 My daughter is suffering. 02:02:57.240 --> 02:02:59.260 Jesus did not answer a word. 02:02:59.980 --> 02:03:05.640 So his disciples came to him and urged him, Send her away, for she keeps crying 02:03:05.640 --> 02:03:06.620 out after us. 02:03:08.340 --> 02:03:11.640 He answered, I was sent only to the lost sheep of Israel. 02:03:14.000 --> 02:03:16.480 The woman came and knelt before him. 02:03:16.560 --> 02:03:18.720 Lord, help me. 02:03:19.020 --> 02:03:19.560 She said. 02:03:23.440 --> 02:03:29.580 He replied, It is not right to take the children's bread and toss it to their 02:03:29.580 --> 02:03:30.020 dogs. 02:03:32.240 --> 02:03:33.300 Yes, Lord. 02:03:34.200 --> 02:03:34.980 She said. 02:03:35.200 --> 02:03:39.320 But even the dogs eat the crumbs that fall from the master's table. 02:03:40.080 --> 02:03:45.920 Then Jesus answered, Woman, you have great faith. 02:03:46.940 --> 02:03:48.120 Your request is granted. 02:03:49.960 --> 02:03:53.900 And her daughter was healed from that very hour. 02:04:08.850 --> 02:04:12.170 Jesus left there and went along the sea of Galilee. 02:04:13.490 --> 02:04:16.230 Then he went up on a mountainside and sat down. 02:04:17.570 --> 02:04:22.270 Great crowds came to him, bringing the lame, the blind, the crippled, 02:04:22.330 --> 02:04:27.510 the mute, and many others, and laid them at his feet, and he healed them. 02:04:30.540 --> 02:04:36.100 The people were amazed when they saw the mute speaking, the crippled made well, 02:04:36.100 --> 02:04:42.520 the lame walking in the blind sea, and they praised the God of Israel. 02:05:21.350 --> 02:05:26.270 Jesus called his disciples to him and said, I have compassion for these people. 02:05:27.250 --> 02:05:31.970 They have already been with me three days and have nothing to eat, and I do not want 02:05:31.970 --> 02:05:35.150 to send them away hungry, for they may collapse on the way. 02:05:35.410 --> 02:05:39.330 His disciples answered, We are not going to have bread until we have a place to 02:05:39.330 --> 02:05:40.170 feed such a crowd. 02:05:40.810 --> 02:05:42.150 How many loaves do you have? 02:05:42.330 --> 02:05:43.070 Jesus asked. 02:05:43.170 --> 02:05:43.450 Seven. 02:05:44.170 --> 02:05:45.090 They replied. 02:05:46.290 --> 02:05:47.390 And a few small fish. 02:06:01.580 --> 02:06:03.900 He told the crowd to sit down on the ground. 02:06:11.350 --> 02:06:15.770 Then he took the seven loaves and the fish, and when he had given thanks, 02:06:15.910 --> 02:06:18.410 he broke them and gave them to the disciples. 02:06:19.010 --> 02:06:20.430 And they in turn to the people. 02:06:24.660 --> 02:06:26.940 They all ate and were satisfied. 02:07:13.030 --> 02:07:18.290 Afterwards, the disciples picked up seven basketfuls of broken pieces that were left 02:07:18.290 --> 02:07:18.590 over. 02:07:19.610 --> 02:07:24.730 The number of those who ate was four thousand, besides women and children. 02:07:28.920 --> 02:07:33.780 After Jesus had sent the crowd away, he got into the boat and went to the 02:07:33.780 --> 02:07:35.220 vicinity of Magadon. 02:07:46.010 --> 02:07:52.010 The Pharisees and Sadducees came to Jesus and tested him by asking him to show them 02:07:52.010 --> 02:07:53.350 a sign from heaven. 02:07:54.310 --> 02:07:54.870 He replied. 02:07:55.330 --> 02:08:00.730 When evening comes, you say it will be fair weather, for the sky is red. 02:08:01.890 --> 02:08:06.010 And in the morning today it will be stormy, for the sky is red and overcast. 02:08:09.110 --> 02:08:15.710 You know how to interpret the appearance of the sky, but you cannot interpret the 02:08:15.710 --> 02:08:16.830 signs of the times. 02:08:22.220 --> 02:08:26.640 A wicked and adulterous generation looks for a miraculous sign, but none will be 02:08:26.640 --> 02:08:27.240 given it, 02:08:36.050 --> 02:08:37.510 except the sign of Jonah. 02:08:50.530 --> 02:08:52.650 Jesus then left them and went away. 02:08:54.170 --> 02:08:57.370 When they went across the lake, the disciples forgot about the sign of 02:08:57.370 --> 02:08:57.370 Jonah. 02:08:57.370 --> 02:08:58.210 They were about to take bread. 02:08:59.310 --> 02:09:00.070 Be careful! 02:09:00.570 --> 02:09:01.790 Jesus said to them. 02:09:04.050 --> 02:09:07.810 Be on your guard against the east of the Pharisees and Sadducees. 02:09:09.510 --> 02:09:14.850 They discussed this among themselves and said, It is because we didn't bring any 02:09:14.850 --> 02:09:15.250 bread. 02:09:16.150 --> 02:09:22.810 Aware of their discussion, Jesus asked, You of little faith, why are you talking 02:09:22.810 --> 02:09:25.110 among yourselves about having no bread? 02:09:25.110 --> 02:09:26.670 Do you still not understand? 02:09:27.910 --> 02:09:31.850 Don't you remember the five loaves for the five thousand, and how many basketfuls you 02:09:31.850 --> 02:09:32.230 gathered? 02:09:32.350 --> 02:09:36.550 Or the seven loaves for the four thousand, and how many basketfuls you gathered? 02:09:39.950 --> 02:09:44.070 How is it you don't understand that I was not talking to you about bread? 02:09:44.990 --> 02:09:50.150 But be on your guard against the east of the Pharisees and Sadducees. 02:09:51.050 --> 02:09:56.330 Then they understood that he was not telling them to guard against the east 02:09:56.330 --> 02:10:01.510 used in bread, but against the teaching of the Pharisees and Sadducees. 02:10:07.790 --> 02:10:12.870 When Jesus came to the region of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, 02:10:13.310 --> 02:10:15.170 Who do people say the Son of Man is? 02:10:15.390 --> 02:10:18.790 They replied, Some say John the Baptist, others say Elijah. 02:10:20.170 --> 02:10:23.630 And still others, Jeremiah, one of the prophets. 02:10:32.360 --> 02:10:33.640 Well, what about you? 02:10:34.200 --> 02:10:34.840 He asked. 02:10:36.800 --> 02:10:38.220 Who do you say I am? 02:10:48.130 --> 02:10:52.810 Simon Peter answered, You're the Christ, the Son of the living God. 02:11:03.260 --> 02:11:04.460 Jesus replied, 02:11:07.820 --> 02:11:13.720 Blessed are you, Simon, son of Jonah, for this was not revealed to you by man, 02:11:13.760 --> 02:11:15.380 but by my Father in heaven. 02:11:16.340 --> 02:11:22.060 And I tell you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church, 02:11:22.800 --> 02:11:25.640 and the gates of Hades will not overcome it. 02:11:27.020 --> 02:11:31.020 I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven. 02:11:32.900 --> 02:11:39.460 Whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth 02:11:39.460 --> 02:11:41.620 will be loosed in heaven. 02:11:43.400 --> 02:11:49.160 Then he warned his disciples not to tell anyone that he was the Christ. 02:11:54.420 --> 02:12:00.620 From that time on, Jesus began to explain to his disciples that he must go to 02:12:00.620 --> 02:12:06.740 Jerusalem and suffer many things at the hands of the elders, chief priests, 02:12:07.000 --> 02:12:11.340 and teachers of the law, and that he must be killed. 02:12:12.360 --> 02:12:15.700 And on the third day he was raised to life. 02:12:18.120 --> 02:12:21.040 Peter took him aside and began to rebuke him. 02:12:21.640 --> 02:12:24.260 Never, Lord, this shall never happen to you. 02:12:25.180 --> 02:12:28.620 Jesus turned and said to Peter, Get behind me, Satan. 02:12:36.900 --> 02:12:39.060 You are a stumbling block to me. 02:12:40.800 --> 02:12:45.220 You do not have in mind the things of God, but the things of men. 02:12:53.000 --> 02:12:57.920 Then Jesus said to his disciples, If anyone would come after me, 02:12:58.000 --> 02:13:04.260 he must deny himself and take up his cross and follow me. 02:13:05.520 --> 02:13:13.200 For whoever wants to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for me 02:13:13.200 --> 02:13:15.540 will find it. 02:13:15.540 --> 02:13:24.960 What good will it be for a man if he gains the whole world, yet forfeits his soul? 02:13:25.160 --> 02:13:28.640 Or what can a man give in exchange for his soul? 02:13:29.280 --> 02:13:32.980 For the Son of Man is going to come in his Father's glory with his angels, 02:13:33.240 --> 02:13:36.700 and then he will reward each person according to what he has done. 02:13:42.580 --> 02:13:44.000 I tell you the truth. 02:13:45.400 --> 02:13:52.980 Some who are standing here will not taste death before they see the Son of Man 02:13:52.980 --> 02:13:54.200 coming in his kingdom. 02:14:10.410 --> 02:14:16.350 After six days, Jesus took with him Peter, James, and John, the brother of James, 02:14:16.670 --> 02:14:19.710 and led them up a high mountain by themselves. 02:14:22.350 --> 02:14:25.150 There he was transfigured before them. 02:14:25.150 --> 02:14:31.230 His face shone like the sun, and his clothes became as white as the light. 02:14:40.320 --> 02:14:45.720 Just then there appeared before them Moses and Elijah, talking with Jesus. 02:14:48.240 --> 02:14:52.680 Peter said to Jesus, Lord, it's good for us to be here. 02:14:53.580 --> 02:14:59.380 If you wish, I will put up three shelters, one for you, one for Moses, and one for 02:14:59.380 --> 02:14:59.780 Elijah. 02:15:02.380 --> 02:15:05.900 While he was still speaking, a bright cloud enveloped them. 02:15:06.540 --> 02:15:11.400 And a voice from the clouds said, This is my Son, whom I love. 02:15:12.080 --> 02:15:14.060 With him I am well pleased. 02:15:14.880 --> 02:15:15.960 Listen to him. 02:15:21.800 --> 02:15:25.520 When the disciples heard this, they fell face down to the ground, 02:15:25.720 --> 02:15:26.100 terrified. 02:15:36.900 --> 02:15:39.140 But Jesus came and touched them. 02:15:39.640 --> 02:15:40.140 Get up! 02:15:40.540 --> 02:15:41.160 He said. 02:15:43.800 --> 02:15:44.880 Don't be afraid. 02:15:46.860 --> 02:15:51.180 When they looked up, they saw no one except Jesus. 02:15:56.980 --> 02:16:02.360 As they were coming down the mountain, Jesus instructed them, Don't tell anyone 02:16:02.360 --> 02:16:07.540 what you have seen until the Son of Man has been raised from the dead. 02:16:08.520 --> 02:16:13.340 The disciples asked him, Why then do the teachers of the law say that Elijah must 02:16:13.340 --> 02:16:14.020 come first? 02:16:15.200 --> 02:16:20.120 Jesus replied, To be sure, Elijah comes, and will restore all things. 02:16:21.340 --> 02:16:24.680 But I tell you, Elijah has already come. 02:16:25.420 --> 02:16:28.700 And they did not recognize him, but have done to him everything they 02:16:28.700 --> 02:16:29.180 wished. 02:16:33.980 --> 02:16:36.920 In the same way, the Son of Man is going to suffer at their hands. 02:16:37.660 --> 02:16:42.720 Then the disciples understood that he was talking to them about John the Baptist. 02:16:48.510 --> 02:16:53.710 When they came to the crowd, a man approached Jesus and knelt before him. 02:16:54.310 --> 02:16:54.910 Lord! 02:16:55.070 --> 02:16:55.730 He said. 02:16:58.190 --> 02:16:59.870 Have mercy on my son. 02:17:00.510 --> 02:17:02.510 He has seizures and is suffering greatly. 02:17:03.130 --> 02:17:06.810 He often falls into the fire or into the water. 02:17:07.750 --> 02:17:10.750 I brought him to your disciples, but they could not heal him. 02:17:10.750 --> 02:17:11.510 What? 02:17:20.350 --> 02:17:22.170 Unbelieving and perverse generation. 02:17:22.990 --> 02:17:23.810 Jesus replied. 02:17:36.310 --> 02:17:38.090 How long shall I stay with you? 02:17:38.890 --> 02:17:40.270 How long shall I put up with you? 02:17:44.520 --> 02:17:45.620 Bring the boy here to me. 02:18:35.150 --> 02:18:36.530 Jesus rebuked the demon. 02:18:37.150 --> 02:18:40.590 And it came out of the boy, and he was healed from that bone. 02:19:04.540 --> 02:19:08.080 Then the disciples came to Jesus in private and asked. 02:19:08.220 --> 02:19:09.520 Why could not we drive it out? 02:19:11.120 --> 02:19:12.080 He replied. 02:19:12.260 --> 02:19:14.020 Because you have so little faith. 02:19:20.140 --> 02:19:21.480 I tell you the truth. 02:19:22.780 --> 02:19:26.720 If you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, 02:19:26.880 --> 02:19:28.500 Move from here to there and it will move. 02:19:28.660 --> 02:19:30.160 Nothing will be impossible for you. 02:19:49.260 --> 02:19:52.420 When they came together in Galilee, he said to them. 02:19:52.680 --> 02:19:55.740 The son of man is going to be betrayed into the hands of men. 02:19:57.340 --> 02:19:58.380 They will kill him. 02:20:00.620 --> 02:20:02.820 And on the third day he will be raised to life. 02:20:07.940 --> 02:20:10.560 And the disciples were filled with grief. 02:20:14.380 --> 02:20:19.700 After Jesus and his disciples arrived in Capernaum, the collectors of the two 02:20:19.700 --> 02:20:22.240 drachma tax came to Peter and asked. 02:20:22.860 --> 02:20:25.400 Doesn't your teacher pay the temple tax? 02:20:26.140 --> 02:20:28.600 Yes, he does, he replied. 02:20:40.090 --> 02:20:44.130 When Peter came into the house, Jesus was the first to speak. 02:20:44.690 --> 02:20:45.950 What do you think, Simon? 02:20:46.350 --> 02:20:47.030 He asked. 02:20:47.750 --> 02:20:50.890 From whom do the kings of the earth collect duty and taxes? 02:20:51.070 --> 02:20:53.430 From their own sons or from others? 02:20:55.290 --> 02:20:57.450 From others, Peter answered. 02:20:58.010 --> 02:20:59.250 Then the sons are exempt. 02:21:00.230 --> 02:21:01.250 Jesus said to him. 02:21:04.570 --> 02:21:08.990 But so that we may not offend them, go to the lake and throw out your line. 02:21:09.110 --> 02:21:11.910 Take the first fish you catch, open its mouth and you will find a 02:21:11.910 --> 02:21:12.950 four-drochma coin. 02:21:14.030 --> 02:21:16.290 Take it and give it to them for my tax and yours. 02:21:44.980 --> 02:21:48.160 At that time the disciples came to Jesus and asked. 02:21:48.680 --> 02:21:50.620 Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven? 02:21:55.620 --> 02:21:59.400 He called a little child and had him stand among them. 02:21:59.940 --> 02:22:00.500 And he said. 02:22:00.800 --> 02:22:01.780 I tell you the truth. 02:22:03.040 --> 02:22:06.320 Unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom 02:22:06.320 --> 02:22:06.760 of heaven. 02:22:07.620 --> 02:22:12.020 Therefore whoever humbles himself like this child is the greatest in the kingdom 02:22:12.020 --> 02:22:12.500 of heaven. 02:22:13.400 --> 02:22:17.480 And whoever welcomes a little child like this in my name welcomes me. 02:22:21.390 --> 02:22:25.790 But if anyone causes one of these little ones who believe in me to sin, 02:22:28.270 --> 02:22:33.130 it would be better for him to have a large millstone hung around his neck and to be 02:22:33.130 --> 02:22:34.530 drowned in the depths of the sea. 02:22:39.020 --> 02:22:42.580 Woe to the world because of the things that cause people to sin. 02:22:43.840 --> 02:22:48.820 Such things must come but... 02:22:48.820 --> 02:22:50.720 Woe to the man to whom they come. 02:22:55.790 --> 02:23:06.730 If your hand or your foot causes you to sin, cut it off and throw it away. 02:23:06.730 --> 02:23:13.690 It is better for you to enter life maimed or crippled than to have two hands or two 02:23:13.690 --> 02:23:16.070 feet and be thrown in eternal fire. 02:23:16.230 --> 02:23:21.750 And if your eye causes you to sin, gouge it out and throw it away. 02:23:21.830 --> 02:23:28.370 It is better for you to enter life with one eye than to have two eyes and to be 02:23:28.370 --> 02:23:29.670 thrown into the fire of hell. 02:23:35.210 --> 02:23:37.870 See that you do not look down on one of these little ones. 02:23:38.950 --> 02:23:41.910 For I tell you that their angels in heaven always see the face of my Father in 02:23:41.910 --> 02:23:42.110 heaven. 02:23:50.890 --> 02:23:52.070 What do you think? 02:23:54.170 --> 02:24:00.270 If a man owns a hundred sheep and one of them wanders away, will he not leave the 02:24:00.270 --> 02:24:03.270 ninety-nine on the hills and go to look for the one that wandered off? 02:24:03.270 --> 02:24:10.110 And if he finds it, I tell you the truth, he is happier about that one sheep than 02:24:10.110 --> 02:24:13.590 about the ninety-nine that did not wander off. 02:24:14.290 --> 02:24:18.270 In the same way, your Father in heaven is not willing that any of these little ones 02:24:18.270 --> 02:24:18.950 should be lost. 02:24:22.390 --> 02:24:27.650 If your brother sins against you, go and show him his fault just between the 02:24:27.650 --> 02:24:28.170 two of you. 02:24:29.030 --> 02:24:31.570 If he listens to you, you have won your brother over. 02:24:32.230 --> 02:24:38.490 But if he will not listen, take one or two others along so that every matter may be 02:24:38.490 --> 02:24:40.970 established by the testimony of two or three witnesses. 02:24:41.530 --> 02:24:44.790 If he refuses to listen to them, tell it to the church. 02:24:45.910 --> 02:24:53.890 And if he refuses to listen even to the church, treat him as you would a pagan or 02:24:53.890 --> 02:24:56.650 a tax collector. 02:25:05.970 --> 02:25:13.550 I tell you the truth, whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, 02:25:14.230 --> 02:25:19.050 and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven. 02:25:20.690 --> 02:25:29.350 Again, I tell you, that if two of you on earth agree about anything you ask for, 02:25:29.870 --> 02:25:31.510 it will be done for you. 02:25:31.570 --> 02:25:33.310 By my Father in heaven. 02:25:35.750 --> 02:25:41.990 For where two or three come together in my name, there am I with them. 02:26:26.110 --> 02:26:31.330 Then Peter came to Jesus and asked, Lord, how many times shall I forgive my 02:26:31.330 --> 02:26:32.970 brother when he sins against me? 02:26:33.990 --> 02:26:35.050 Up to seven times. 02:26:36.170 --> 02:26:41.770 Jesus answered, Lord, I tell you not seven times, but seventy-seven times. 02:26:46.320 --> 02:26:52.020 Therefore the kingdom of heaven is like a king who wanted to settle accounts with 02:26:52.020 --> 02:26:52.560 his servants. 02:26:53.620 --> 02:26:59.580 As he began the settlement, a man who owed him ten thousand talents was brought to 02:26:59.580 --> 02:26:59.940 him. 02:27:00.420 --> 02:27:03.960 Since he was not able to pay the master order that he and his wife and his 02:27:03.960 --> 02:27:07.240 children and all that he had be sold to repay the debt. 02:27:09.000 --> 02:27:11.100 The servant fell on his knees before him. 02:27:12.820 --> 02:27:14.440 Be patient with me. 02:27:14.840 --> 02:27:15.380 He begged. 02:27:16.080 --> 02:27:17.700 And I'll pay back everything. 02:27:20.360 --> 02:27:24.800 The servant's master took pity on him, canceled the debt and let him go. 02:27:29.740 --> 02:27:33.740 But when that servant went out, he found one of his fellow servants who 02:27:33.740 --> 02:27:35.820 owed him a hundred denarii. 02:27:36.080 --> 02:27:37.700 He grabbed him and began to choke him. 02:27:38.740 --> 02:27:40.160 I will pay back what you owe me. 02:27:40.220 --> 02:27:40.960 He demanded. 02:27:42.100 --> 02:27:46.540 His fellow servant fell to his knees and begged him, be patient with me and I will 02:27:46.540 --> 02:27:47.340 pay you back. 02:27:48.200 --> 02:27:49.320 But he refused. 02:27:50.760 --> 02:27:57.020 Instead he went off and had the man thrown into prison until he could pay the debt. 02:28:00.340 --> 02:28:04.280 When the other servants saw what had happened, they were greatly distressed and 02:28:04.280 --> 02:28:06.560 went and told their master everything that had happened. 02:28:12.280 --> 02:28:14.740 Then the master called the servant in. 02:28:22.170 --> 02:28:24.810 You wicked servant, he said. 02:28:27.050 --> 02:28:31.010 I canceled all that debt of yours because you begged me to. 02:28:31.970 --> 02:28:36.130 Shouldn't you have had mercy on your fellow servant just as I had on you? 02:28:40.300 --> 02:28:47.480 In anger, the master turned him over to the jailers to be tortured until he should 02:28:47.480 --> 02:28:48.640 pay back all he owed. 02:28:54.550 --> 02:29:00.110 This is how my heavenly father will treat each of you unless you forgive your 02:29:00.110 --> 02:29:01.270 brother from your heart. 02:29:12.240 --> 02:29:17.160 When Jesus had finished saying these things, he left Galilee and went into the 02:29:17.160 --> 02:29:19.840 region of Judea to the other side of the Jordan. 02:29:21.720 --> 02:29:25.180 Large crowds followed him and he healed them there. 02:29:28.160 --> 02:29:31.000 Some Pharisees came to him to test him. 02:29:41.200 --> 02:29:46.720 They asked, Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife for any and every reason? 02:29:47.500 --> 02:29:48.280 Haven't you read? 02:29:48.540 --> 02:29:52.820 He replied, That at the beginning the Creator made them male and female, 02:29:53.500 --> 02:29:57.660 and said, For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his 02:29:57.660 --> 02:30:00.860 wife, and the two will become one flesh. 02:30:01.680 --> 02:30:05.220 So they are no longer two, but one. 02:30:06.840 --> 02:30:09.360 Therefore where God has joined together, let man not separate. 02:30:10.280 --> 02:30:15.500 Why then, they asked, did Moses command that a man give his wife a certificate of 02:30:15.500 --> 02:30:17.320 divorce and send her away? 02:30:17.320 --> 02:30:22.020 Jesus replied, Moses permitted you to divorce your wives because your hearts 02:30:22.020 --> 02:30:24.440 were hard, but it was not this way from the beginning. 02:30:25.720 --> 02:30:29.700 I tell you that anyone who divorces his wife except for marital unfaithfulness and 02:30:29.700 --> 02:30:32.100 marries another woman commits adultery. 02:30:32.440 --> 02:30:37.380 The disciples said to him, If this is the situation between a husband and wife, 02:30:37.580 --> 02:30:38.720 it's better not to marry. 02:30:39.580 --> 02:30:44.860 Jesus replied, Not everyone can accept this word, but only those to whom it has 02:30:44.860 --> 02:30:47.520 been given, for some are eunuchs because they were born that way. 02:30:48.080 --> 02:30:54.140 Others were made that way by men, and others have renounced marriage because 02:30:54.140 --> 02:30:55.460 of the kingdom of heaven. 02:30:56.600 --> 02:31:00.140 The one who can accept this should accept it. 02:31:07.720 --> 02:31:12.420 Then little children were brought to Jesus for him to place his hands on them and 02:31:12.420 --> 02:31:13.220 pray for them. 02:31:15.280 --> 02:31:18.400 But the disciples rebuked those who brought them. 02:31:19.360 --> 02:31:24.740 Jesus said, Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, 02:31:26.040 --> 02:31:28.680 for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these. 02:31:29.340 --> 02:31:33.400 When he had placed his hands on them, he went on from there. 02:31:49.550 --> 02:31:56.050 Now a man came up to Jesus and asked, Teacher, what good thing must I do to get 02:31:56.050 --> 02:31:56.690 eternal life? 02:31:56.930 --> 02:31:58.870 Why do you ask me about what is good? 02:31:59.010 --> 02:32:01.810 Jesus replied, There is only one who is good. 02:32:03.110 --> 02:32:05.190 If you want to enter life, obey the command. 02:32:05.710 --> 02:32:06.530 Which ones? 02:32:06.910 --> 02:32:08.070 The man inquired. 02:32:08.910 --> 02:32:13.790 Jesus replied, Do not murder, do not commit adultery, do not steal, 02:32:14.430 --> 02:32:18.690 do not give false testimony, honor your father and mother, and love your neighbor 02:32:18.690 --> 02:32:19.390 as yourself. 02:32:20.050 --> 02:32:22.670 All these I have kept, the young man said. 02:32:23.090 --> 02:32:24.370 What do I still lack? 02:32:24.890 --> 02:32:30.230 Jesus answered, If you want to be perfect, go sell your possessions and give to the 02:32:30.230 --> 02:32:32.650 poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. 02:32:33.490 --> 02:32:34.650 Then come, follow me. 02:32:35.310 --> 02:32:40.050 When the young man heard this, he went away sad, because he had great 02:32:40.050 --> 02:32:40.490 wealth. 02:32:52.640 --> 02:33:00.060 Then Jesus said to his disciples, I tell you the truth, it is hard for a 02:33:00.060 --> 02:33:01.760 rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven. 02:33:05.320 --> 02:33:10.220 Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for 02:33:10.220 --> 02:33:12.400 a rich man to enter the kingdom of God. 02:33:12.780 --> 02:33:17.140 When the disciples heard this, they were greatly astonished and asked, 02:33:17.420 --> 02:33:18.760 Who then can be saved? 02:33:20.060 --> 02:33:24.440 Jesus looked at them and said, With man, this is impossible. 02:33:26.740 --> 02:33:30.860 But with God, all things are possible. 02:33:31.480 --> 02:33:35.220 Peter answered him, We have left everything to follow you. 02:33:35.720 --> 02:33:37.120 What then will there be for us? 02:33:39.040 --> 02:33:45.940 Jesus said to them, I tell you the truth, at the renewal of all things, when the Son 02:33:45.940 --> 02:33:52.680 of Man sits on his glorious throne, you who have followed me will also sit on 02:33:52.680 --> 02:33:56.460 twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel. 02:33:57.300 --> 02:34:02.680 And everyone who has left houses, or brothers, or sisters, or father, 02:34:02.860 --> 02:34:08.820 or mother, or children, or fields for my sake, will receive a hundred times as 02:34:08.820 --> 02:34:11.780 much, and will inherit eternal life. 02:34:16.100 --> 02:34:25.220 But many who are first will be last, and many who are last will be first. 02:34:30.280 --> 02:34:35.080 For the kingdom of heaven is like a landowner who went out early in the 02:34:35.080 --> 02:34:37.160 morning to hire men to work in his vineyard. 02:34:37.760 --> 02:34:41.340 He agreed to pay them a denarius for the day and sent them into his vineyard. 02:34:43.080 --> 02:34:47.560 About the third hour he went out and saw others standing in the marketplace doing 02:34:47.560 --> 02:34:47.920 nothing. 02:34:48.620 --> 02:34:52.980 He told them, You also go and work in my vineyard, and I will pay you whatever is 02:34:52.980 --> 02:34:53.220 right. 02:34:53.720 --> 02:34:54.500 So they went. 02:34:56.160 --> 02:35:00.000 He went out again about the sixth hour and the ninth hour and did the same thing. 02:35:14.710 --> 02:35:18.150 About the eleventh hour he went out and found still others standing around. 02:35:21.520 --> 02:35:25.040 He asked them, Why have you been standing here all day long doing nothing? 02:35:25.400 --> 02:35:26.920 Because no one has hired us. 02:35:27.100 --> 02:35:27.660 They answered. 02:35:28.160 --> 02:35:30.860 He said to them, You also go and work in my vineyard. 02:35:34.870 --> 02:35:38.850 When evening came, the owner of the vineyard said to his foreman, Call the 02:35:38.850 --> 02:35:42.530 workers and pay them their wages, beginning with the last ones hired and 02:35:42.530 --> 02:35:43.490 going on to the first. 02:35:46.860 --> 02:35:50.840 The workers who were hired about the eleventh hour came and each received a 02:35:50.840 --> 02:35:51.320 denarius. 02:35:52.220 --> 02:35:56.220 So when those came who were hired first, they expected to receive more. 02:35:56.980 --> 02:35:59.080 But each one of them also received a denarius. 02:36:00.000 --> 02:36:02.900 When they received it they began to grumble against the landowner. 02:36:03.900 --> 02:36:06.960 These men who were hired last worked only one hour. 02:36:07.080 --> 02:36:07.580 They said. 02:36:07.740 --> 02:36:12.460 And you have made them equal to us who have borne the burden of the work and the 02:36:12.460 --> 02:36:13.360 heat of the day. 02:36:13.360 --> 02:36:14.880 But he answered one of them. 02:36:15.440 --> 02:36:17.820 Friend, I am not being unfair to you. 02:36:18.700 --> 02:36:20.880 Didn't you agree to work for a denarius? 02:36:22.100 --> 02:36:23.480 Take your pay and go. 02:36:25.360 --> 02:36:29.080 I want to give the man who was hired last the same as I gave you. 02:36:30.180 --> 02:36:32.660 Don't I have the right to do what I want with my own money? 02:36:33.740 --> 02:36:35.760 Or are you envious because I am generous? 02:36:38.020 --> 02:36:42.980 So the last will be first and the first will be last. 02:36:54.850 --> 02:37:00.470 Now as Jesus was going up to Jerusalem, he took the twelve disciples aside and 02:37:00.470 --> 02:37:01.030 said to them. 02:37:01.590 --> 02:37:02.950 We are going up to Jerusalem. 02:37:03.730 --> 02:37:07.870 And the son of man will be betrayed to the chief priests and the teachers of the law. 02:37:09.550 --> 02:37:11.130 They will condemn him to death. 02:37:12.290 --> 02:37:20.230 And will turn him over to the Gentiles to be mocked and flogged and crucified. 02:37:29.260 --> 02:37:30.600 On the third day, 02:37:34.490 --> 02:37:36.090 he will be raised to life. 02:38:10.150 --> 02:38:15.710 Then the mother of Zebedee's sons came to Jesus with her sons and kneeling down 02:38:15.710 --> 02:38:17.190 asked a favor of him. 02:38:17.970 --> 02:38:19.330 What is it you want? 02:38:19.550 --> 02:38:20.330 He asked. 02:38:20.710 --> 02:38:21.470 She said. 02:38:22.030 --> 02:38:27.010 Grant that one of these two sons of mine may sit at your right hand and the other 02:38:27.010 --> 02:38:28.830 at your left in your kingdom. 02:38:31.310 --> 02:38:33.270 You don't know what you are asking. 02:38:33.690 --> 02:38:34.710 Jesus said to them. 02:38:46.560 --> 02:38:48.620 Can you drink the cup I am going to drink? 02:38:51.580 --> 02:38:52.400 We can. 02:38:52.860 --> 02:38:53.580 They answered. 02:39:00.530 --> 02:39:01.870 Jesus said to them. 02:39:01.870 --> 02:39:04.510 You will indeed drink from my cup. 02:39:04.550 --> 02:39:10.190 But to sit at my right or left is not for me to grant. 02:39:10.250 --> 02:39:13.710 These places belong to those for whom they have been prepared by my father. 02:39:27.480 --> 02:39:31.620 When the ten heard about this, they were indignant with the two brothers. 02:39:36.720 --> 02:39:38.980 Jesus called them together and said. 02:39:39.620 --> 02:39:43.180 You know that the rulers of the Gentiles lorded over them. 02:39:44.600 --> 02:39:47.720 And their high officials exercise authority over them. 02:39:48.340 --> 02:39:50.400 Not so with you. 02:39:51.680 --> 02:39:56.580 Instead, whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant. 02:39:58.220 --> 02:40:02.480 And whoever wants to be first must be your slave. 02:40:05.100 --> 02:40:13.460 Just as the son of man did not come to be served, but to serve and to give his life 02:40:13.460 --> 02:40:14.760 as a ransom for many. 02:40:48.410 --> 02:40:53.510 As Jesus and his disciples were leaving Jericho, a large crowd followed him. 02:40:56.830 --> 02:41:00.130 Two blind men were sitting by the roadside. 02:41:00.270 --> 02:41:03.490 And when they heard that Jesus was going by, they shouted. 02:41:05.850 --> 02:41:09.170 Lord, son of David, have mercy on us. 02:41:14.350 --> 02:41:17.130 The crowd rebuked them and told them to be quiet. 02:41:17.630 --> 02:41:19.050 But they shouted all the louder. 02:41:19.350 --> 02:41:23.810 Lord, son of David, have mercy on us. 02:41:25.890 --> 02:41:27.630 Jesus stopped and called them. 02:41:28.270 --> 02:41:29.910 What do you want me to do for you? 02:41:30.030 --> 02:41:30.630 He asked. 02:41:30.990 --> 02:41:32.630 They answered. 02:41:33.170 --> 02:41:34.110 We want our sight. 02:41:39.580 --> 02:41:43.100 Jesus had compassion on them and touched their eyes. 02:41:52.120 --> 02:41:56.640 Immediately they received their sight and followed him. 02:42:09.870 --> 02:42:15.110 As they approached Jerusalem and came to Bethpage on the Mount of Olives, 02:42:16.150 --> 02:42:21.030 Jesus sent two disciples saying to them, Go to the village ahead of you. 02:42:22.590 --> 02:42:27.230 And at once you will find a donkey tied there with her colt by her. 02:42:28.470 --> 02:42:29.970 Untie them and bring them to me. 02:42:31.310 --> 02:42:34.130 If anyone says anything to you, tell him that the Lord needs them and he 02:42:34.130 --> 02:42:35.110 will send them right away. 02:42:52.100 --> 02:42:55.600 This took place to fulfill what was spoken through the prophet. 02:42:57.120 --> 02:43:03.060 Say to the daughter of Zion, See, your king comes to you gentle and riding 02:43:03.060 --> 02:43:06.700 on a donkey, on a colt, the foal of a donkey. 02:43:08.700 --> 02:43:13.120 The donkey, the foal of a donkey. 02:43:13.960 --> 02:43:17.240 The disciples went and did as Jesus had instructed them. 02:43:18.280 --> 02:43:23.080 They brought the donkey and the colt, placed their cloaks on them, and Jesus sat 02:43:23.080 --> 02:43:23.560 on them. 02:43:25.080 --> 02:43:28.640 The donkey, the foal of a donkey. 02:43:47.260 --> 02:43:53.020 A very large crowd spread their cloaks on the road, while others cut branches from 02:43:53.020 --> 02:43:55.160 the trees and spread them on the road. 02:43:58.760 --> 02:44:03.880 The crowds that went ahead of him and those that followed shouted, Hosanna to 02:44:03.880 --> 02:44:05.260 the Son of David! 02:44:16.100 --> 02:44:17.840 Hosanna in the highest! 02:44:26.090 --> 02:44:32.970 When Jesus entered Jerusalem, the whole city was stirred and asked, Who is this? 02:44:33.190 --> 02:44:39.350 The crowds answered, This is Jesus, the prophet from Nazareth in Galilee. 02:45:21.260 --> 02:45:26.740 Jesus entered the temple area and drove out all who were buying and selling there. 02:45:30.840 --> 02:45:36.080 He overturned the tables of the money changers and the benches of those selling 02:45:36.080 --> 02:45:36.820 doves. 02:46:18.630 --> 02:46:24.750 It is written, he said to them, My house will be called a house of prayer. 02:46:31.620 --> 02:46:33.440 But you are making it a den of robbers. 02:46:50.520 --> 02:46:54.960 The blind and the lame came to him at the temple and he healed them. 02:46:57.980 --> 02:47:02.340 But when the chief priests and the teachers of the law saw the wonderful 02:47:02.340 --> 02:47:09.920 things he did and the children shouting in the temple area, they were indignant. 02:47:10.080 --> 02:47:12.540 Do you hear what these children are saying? 02:47:12.780 --> 02:47:13.720 They asked him. 02:47:18.150 --> 02:47:20.190 Yes, replied Jesus. 02:47:28.160 --> 02:47:29.840 Have you never read? 02:47:31.160 --> 02:47:36.100 From the lips of children and infants you have ordained praise. 02:47:46.620 --> 02:47:51.480 And he left them and went out of the city to Bethany, where he spent the night. 02:48:44.280 --> 02:48:48.160 Early in the morning, as he was on his way back to the city, he was hungry. 02:48:49.120 --> 02:48:53.980 Seeing a fig tree by the road, he went up to it, but found nothing on it 02:48:53.980 --> 02:48:54.940 except leaves. 02:49:00.480 --> 02:49:01.920 Then he said to it. 02:49:02.540 --> 02:49:03.980 May you never bear fruit again. 02:49:05.020 --> 02:49:06.940 Immediately the tree withered. 02:49:07.620 --> 02:49:10.720 When the disciples saw this, they were amazed. 02:49:11.100 --> 02:49:13.000 How did the fig tree wither so quickly? 02:49:13.360 --> 02:49:14.080 They asked. 02:49:19.590 --> 02:49:20.630 Jesus replied. 02:49:21.130 --> 02:49:22.230 I tell you the truth. 02:49:23.590 --> 02:49:28.630 If you have faith and do not doubt, not only can you do what was done to the 02:49:28.630 --> 02:49:33.570 fig tree, but also you can say to this mountain, go throw yourself into the sea 02:49:33.570 --> 02:49:34.390 and it will be done. 02:49:36.310 --> 02:49:41.370 If you believe, you will receive whatever you ask for in prayer. 02:49:46.470 --> 02:49:50.510 Jesus entered the temple courts, and while he was teaching, the chief 02:49:50.510 --> 02:49:53.450 priests and the elders of the people came to him. 02:49:54.810 --> 02:49:57.130 By what authority are you doing these things? 02:49:57.330 --> 02:49:57.990 They asked. 02:49:58.370 --> 02:49:59.910 And who gave you this authority? 02:50:01.610 --> 02:50:02.570 Jesus replied. 02:50:03.230 --> 02:50:04.970 I will also ask you one question. 02:50:06.570 --> 02:50:10.430 If you answer me, I will tell you by what authority I am doing these things. 02:50:11.290 --> 02:50:12.190 John's baptism. 02:50:13.210 --> 02:50:14.130 Where did it come from? 02:50:14.190 --> 02:50:15.390 Was it from heaven or from men? 02:50:18.430 --> 02:50:20.990 They discussed it among themselves and said. 02:50:21.910 --> 02:50:26.870 If we say from heaven, he will ask them, why didn't you believe him? 02:50:27.630 --> 02:50:32.910 But if we say from men, we are afraid of the people, for they will hold that John 02:50:32.910 --> 02:50:33.470 was a prophet. 02:50:35.250 --> 02:50:36.890 So they answered Jesus. 02:50:37.330 --> 02:50:38.690 We don't know. 02:50:42.050 --> 02:50:43.210 Then he said. 02:50:43.710 --> 02:50:46.430 Neither will I tell you by what authority I am doing these things. 02:50:48.990 --> 02:50:49.950 What do you think? 02:50:51.550 --> 02:50:53.250 There was a man who had two sons. 02:50:54.430 --> 02:50:57.530 He went to the first and said, son, go and work today in the vineyard. 02:50:58.870 --> 02:51:00.190 I will not, he answered. 02:51:00.850 --> 02:51:02.790 But later he changed his mind and went. 02:51:04.050 --> 02:51:06.610 Then the father went to the other son and said the same thing. 02:51:07.230 --> 02:51:08.550 He answered, I will, sir. 02:51:09.630 --> 02:51:10.730 But he did not go. 02:51:12.150 --> 02:51:13.850 Which of the two did what his father wanted? 02:51:17.220 --> 02:51:18.100 The first. 02:51:18.420 --> 02:51:19.120 They answered. 02:51:19.940 --> 02:51:21.100 Jesus said to them. 02:51:23.200 --> 02:51:27.380 The tax collectors and the prostitutes are entering the kingdom of God ahead of you. 02:51:28.700 --> 02:51:31.800 For John came to you to show you the way of righteousness and you did not believe 02:51:31.800 --> 02:51:32.020 him. 02:51:32.760 --> 02:51:34.820 But the tax collectors and the prostitutes did. 02:51:35.720 --> 02:51:38.500 And even after you saw this, you did not repent and believe him. 02:51:41.640 --> 02:51:43.040 Listen to another parable. 02:51:47.310 --> 02:51:50.470 There was a landowner who planted a vineyard. 02:51:51.610 --> 02:51:55.950 He put a wall around it, dug a wine press in it and built a watchtower. 02:51:56.930 --> 02:52:00.190 Then he rented the vineyard to some farmers and went away on a journey. 02:52:01.270 --> 02:52:05.530 When the harvest time approached, he sent his servants to the tenants to 02:52:05.530 --> 02:52:06.250 collect his fruit. 02:52:07.650 --> 02:52:09.170 The tenants seized his servants. 02:52:10.410 --> 02:52:15.170 They beat one, killed another and stoned a third. 02:52:17.710 --> 02:52:20.790 Then he sent other servants to them, more than the first time. 02:52:21.390 --> 02:52:23.410 And the tenants treated them the same way. 02:52:24.930 --> 02:52:26.610 Last of all, he sent his son to them. 02:52:27.330 --> 02:52:29.170 They will respect my son, he said. 02:52:31.130 --> 02:52:35.490 But when the tenants saw the son, they said to each other, this is the heir. 02:52:36.250 --> 02:52:38.030 Come, let's kill him and take his inheritance. 02:52:39.330 --> 02:52:43.810 So they took him and threw him out of the vineyard and killed him. 02:52:46.290 --> 02:52:50.810 Therefore, when the owner of the vineyard comes, what will he do to those tenants? 02:52:51.190 --> 02:52:54.950 He will bring those wretches to a wretched end, they replied. 02:52:55.390 --> 02:53:00.110 And he will rent the vineyard to other tenants who will give him his share of the 02:53:00.110 --> 02:53:01.410 crop at harvest time. 02:53:02.810 --> 02:53:04.670 Jesus said to them... 02:53:04.670 --> 02:53:06.050 Have you never read in the scriptures? 02:53:07.390 --> 02:53:10.630 The stone the builders rejected has become the capstone. 02:53:12.350 --> 02:53:15.310 The Lord has done this and it is marvelous in our eyes. 02:53:17.330 --> 02:53:20.730 Therefore I tell you that the kingdom of God will be taken away from you and given 02:53:20.730 --> 02:53:22.470 to a people who will produce its fruit. 02:53:24.390 --> 02:53:28.250 He who falls on this stone will be broken to pieces. 02:53:29.450 --> 02:53:31.410 But he on whom it falls will be crushed. 02:53:42.370 --> 02:53:48.010 When the chief priests and the Pharisees heard Jesus' parables, they knew he was 02:53:48.010 --> 02:53:49.170 talking about them. 02:53:51.050 --> 02:53:53.190 They looked for a way to arrest him. 02:53:53.570 --> 02:53:57.550 They were afraid of the crowd because the people held that he was a prophet. 02:54:02.080 --> 02:54:06.280 Jesus spoke to them again in parables, saying... 02:54:06.280 --> 02:54:14.760 The kingdom of heaven is like a king who prepared a wedding banquet for his son. 02:54:18.130 --> 02:54:21.790 He sent his servants to those who had been invited to the banquet to tell them to 02:54:21.790 --> 02:54:22.090 come. 02:54:24.630 --> 02:54:26.250 But they refused to come. 02:54:29.170 --> 02:54:33.530 Then he sent some more servants and said... 02:54:33.530 --> 02:54:38.130 Tell those who have been invited that I have prepared my dinner. 02:54:39.550 --> 02:54:44.610 My oxen and fatted cattle have been butchered and everything is ready. 02:54:46.010 --> 02:54:47.270 Come to the wedding banquet. 02:54:49.390 --> 02:54:53.750 But they paid no attention and went off. 02:54:54.510 --> 02:54:57.990 One to his field, another to his business. 02:55:00.310 --> 02:55:11.070 The rest seized his servants, mistreated them, and killed them. 02:55:17.610 --> 02:55:19.130 The king was enraged. 02:55:19.430 --> 02:55:22.170 He sent his army and destroyed those murderers. 02:55:23.830 --> 02:55:25.250 And burned their city. 02:55:27.090 --> 02:55:28.340 He said to his servants... 02:55:30.070 --> 02:55:34.750 The wedding banquet is ready, but those I invited did not deserve to come. 02:55:36.090 --> 02:55:42.570 Go to the street corners and invite to the banquet anyone you can find. 02:55:46.590 --> 02:55:51.750 So the servants went out into the streets and gathered all the people they could 02:55:51.750 --> 02:55:52.130 find. 02:55:54.070 --> 02:55:55.810 Both good and bad. 02:55:57.170 --> 02:56:00.410 And the wedding hall was filled with guests. 02:56:07.160 --> 02:56:12.380 But when the king came in to see the guests... 02:56:14.510 --> 02:56:19.910 He noticed a man there who was not wearing wedding clothes. 02:56:22.590 --> 02:56:24.710 A friend he asked... 02:56:25.970 --> 02:56:28.450 How did you get in here without wedding clothes? 02:56:29.890 --> 02:56:31.550 The man was speechless. 02:56:35.060 --> 02:56:39.740 Then the king told the attendants... 02:56:44.570 --> 02:56:46.150 Tie him hand and foot. 02:56:47.990 --> 02:56:49.830 And throw him outside. 02:56:51.870 --> 02:56:53.450 Into the darkness. 02:56:55.890 --> 02:56:57.250 For there will be weeping. 02:56:59.230 --> 02:57:00.710 And gnashing of teeth. 02:57:03.310 --> 02:57:05.010 For many are invited. 02:57:07.970 --> 02:57:09.790 But few are chosen. 02:57:20.870 --> 02:57:24.990 Then the Pharisees went out and laid plans to trap him in his words. 02:57:25.650 --> 02:57:29.190 They sent their disciples to him along with the Herodians. 02:57:30.170 --> 02:57:35.050 Teacher, they said, we know you are a man of integrity. 02:57:35.810 --> 02:57:39.930 And that you teach the way of God in accordance with the truth. 02:57:41.190 --> 02:57:47.010 You are not swayed by men because you pay no attention to who they are. 02:57:48.070 --> 02:57:51.670 Tell us then, what is your opinion? 02:57:53.270 --> 02:57:56.450 Is it right to pay taxes to Caesar? 02:57:57.410 --> 02:57:58.770 Or not? 02:58:00.850 --> 02:58:04.950 But Jesus, knowing their evil intent, said... 02:58:04.950 --> 02:58:07.810 You hypocrites, why are you trying to trap me? 02:58:07.810 --> 02:58:12.710 Show me the coin used for paying the taxes. 02:58:17.880 --> 02:58:21.420 They brought him a denarius and he asked them... 02:58:21.420 --> 02:58:23.200 Whose portrait is this and whose inscription? 02:58:23.400 --> 02:58:23.820 Caesar! 02:58:25.520 --> 02:58:26.520 They replied. 02:58:28.060 --> 02:58:29.480 Then he said to them... 02:58:29.480 --> 02:58:32.180 Give to Caesar what is Caesar's. 02:58:33.540 --> 02:58:35.320 And to God what is God's. 02:58:42.110 --> 02:58:44.410 When they heard this, they were amazed. 02:58:44.410 --> 02:58:47.070 So they left him and went away. 02:58:49.070 --> 02:58:54.970 That same day the Sadducees, who say there is no resurrection, came to him with a 02:58:54.970 --> 02:58:55.430 question. 02:58:55.750 --> 02:58:56.150 Teacher! 02:58:56.810 --> 02:58:57.550 They said. 02:58:59.130 --> 02:59:04.110 Moses told us that if a man dies without having children... 02:59:04.110 --> 02:59:08.530 his brother must marry the widow and have children for him. 02:59:10.510 --> 02:59:12.930 Now there were seven brothers among us. 02:59:13.690 --> 02:59:15.890 The first one married and died. 02:59:17.030 --> 02:59:20.730 And since he had no children, he left his wife to his brother. 02:59:22.490 --> 02:59:25.930 The same thing happened to the second and third brother... 02:59:25.930 --> 02:59:27.550 right on down to the seventh. 02:59:29.070 --> 02:59:30.490 Finally the woman died. 02:59:33.350 --> 02:59:38.090 Now then, at the resurrection, whose wife will she be of the seven... 02:59:38.090 --> 02:59:39.830 since all of them were married to her? 02:59:52.940 --> 02:59:53.820 Jesus replied. 02:59:54.340 --> 02:59:58.080 You are in error because you do not know the scriptures or the power of God. 02:59:59.700 --> 03:00:00.700 At the resurrection... 03:00:02.220 --> 03:00:05.380 people will neither marry nor be given in marriage. 03:00:06.280 --> 03:00:08.140 They will be like the angels in heaven. 03:00:10.140 --> 03:00:11.880 But about the resurrection of the dead... 03:00:13.040 --> 03:00:14.720 have you not read what God said to you? 03:00:16.260 --> 03:00:17.700 I am the God of Abraham... 03:00:18.920 --> 03:00:20.660 the God of Isaac... 03:00:20.700 --> 03:00:22.440 and the God of Jacob. 03:00:24.080 --> 03:00:25.700 He is not the God of the dead... 03:00:26.660 --> 03:00:27.620 but of the living. 03:00:29.700 --> 03:00:33.560 When the crowds heard this, they were astonished at his teaching. 03:00:36.400 --> 03:00:41.320 Hearing that Jesus had silenced the Sadducees, the Pharisees got together. 03:00:42.280 --> 03:00:46.860 One of them, an expert in the law, tested him with this question. 03:00:47.100 --> 03:00:50.180 Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the law? 03:00:53.960 --> 03:00:54.840 Jesus replied. 03:00:55.240 --> 03:00:57.460 Love the Lord your God with all your heart... 03:00:57.460 --> 03:00:59.860 and with all your soul and with all your mind. 03:01:00.920 --> 03:01:03.560 This is the first and greatest commandment, and the second is like it. 03:01:03.940 --> 03:01:05.400 Love your neighbor as yourself. 03:01:06.340 --> 03:01:08.600 All the law and the prophets hang on these two commandments. 03:01:10.280 --> 03:01:13.720 While the Pharisees were gathered together, Jesus asked them. 03:01:14.240 --> 03:01:15.820 What do you think about the Christ? 03:01:17.820 --> 03:01:18.900 Whose son is he? 03:01:19.080 --> 03:01:20.060 The son of David. 03:01:20.060 --> 03:01:21.140 David, they replied. 03:01:21.580 --> 03:01:22.860 He said to them. 03:01:23.180 --> 03:01:27.840 How is it then that David, speaking by the Spirit, calls him Lord? 03:01:29.320 --> 03:01:34.780 For he says, The Lord said to my Lord, Sit at my right hand until I put your 03:01:34.780 --> 03:01:35.900 enemies under your feet. 03:01:37.660 --> 03:01:43.540 If then David calls him Lord, how can he be his son? 03:01:46.000 --> 03:01:48.340 No one could say a word in reply. 03:01:48.340 --> 03:01:53.240 And from that day on, no one dared to ask him any more questions. 03:01:55.340 --> 03:01:58.600 Then Jesus said to the crowds and to his disciples. 03:01:59.300 --> 03:02:05.080 The teachers of the law and the Pharisees sit in Moses' seat. 03:02:07.020 --> 03:02:11.540 So you must obey them and do everything they tell you. 03:02:15.800 --> 03:02:20.860 But do not do what they do, for they do not practice what they preach. 03:02:23.180 --> 03:02:27.880 They tie up heavy loads and put them on men's shoulders. 03:02:30.520 --> 03:02:33.840 But they themselves are not willing to lift a finger to move them. 03:02:36.060 --> 03:02:39.820 Everything they do is done for men to see. 03:02:41.160 --> 03:02:46.320 They make their phylacteries wide, and the tassels on their garments long. 03:02:47.660 --> 03:02:50.100 They love the place of honor at banquets. 03:02:50.960 --> 03:02:54.480 And the most important seats in the synagogues, they love to be greeted in the 03:02:54.480 --> 03:02:58.140 marketplaces, and to have men call them Rabbi. 03:03:00.880 --> 03:03:03.360 But you are not to be called Rabbi, 03:03:07.240 --> 03:03:11.900 for you have only one Master, and you are all brothers. 03:03:15.330 --> 03:03:22.110 And do not call anyone on earth Father, for you have one Father, and He is in 03:03:22.110 --> 03:03:22.370 Heaven. 03:03:23.550 --> 03:03:31.370 Nor are you to be called teachers, for you have one Teacher, the Christ. 03:03:33.270 --> 03:03:41.530 The greatest among you will be your servant, for whoever exalts himself will 03:03:41.530 --> 03:03:47.590 be humbled, and whoever humbles himself will be exalted. 03:04:03.540 --> 03:04:07.320 Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! 03:04:09.020 --> 03:04:11.760 You shut the kingdom of Heaven in men's faces. 03:04:13.080 --> 03:04:17.220 You yourselves do not enter, nor will you let those enter who are trying to. 03:04:20.160 --> 03:04:25.020 Woe to you, teachers of the law and Pharisees, you hypocrites! 03:04:26.260 --> 03:04:31.880 You travel over land and sea to win a single convert, and when he becomes one 03:04:31.880 --> 03:04:34.420 you make him twice as much a son of hell as you are. 03:04:36.240 --> 03:04:38.680 Woe to you, blind guides! 03:04:40.060 --> 03:04:45.660 You say if anyone swears by the temple it means nothing, but if anyone swears by the 03:04:45.660 --> 03:04:47.980 gold of the temple he is bound by his oath. 03:04:48.940 --> 03:04:50.260 You blind fools! 03:04:52.100 --> 03:04:58.720 Which is greater, the gold, or the temple that makes the gold sacred? 03:05:00.420 --> 03:05:06.640 You also say if anyone swears by the altar it means nothing, but if anyone swears by 03:05:06.640 --> 03:05:09.620 the gift on it, he is bound by his oath. 03:05:11.020 --> 03:05:12.080 You blind men! 03:05:12.220 --> 03:05:19.140 Which is greater, the gift, or the altar that makes the gift sacred? 03:05:21.760 --> 03:05:27.940 Therefore, he who swears by the altar, swears by it, and by everything on it. 03:05:28.900 --> 03:05:33.660 And he who swears by the temple, swears by it, and by the one who dwells in 03:05:33.660 --> 03:05:33.880 it. 03:05:35.160 --> 03:05:41.920 And he who swears by heaven, swears by God's throne, and by the one who sits on 03:05:41.920 --> 03:05:42.360 it. 03:05:48.390 --> 03:05:55.550 Woe to you, teachers of the law, and Pharisees, you hypocrites! 03:05:56.670 --> 03:06:03.630 You give a tenth of your spices, mint, dill, and cumin, but you have 03:06:03.630 --> 03:06:12.930 neglected the more important matters of the law, justice, mercy, and faithfulness. 03:06:13.950 --> 03:06:19.070 You should have practiced the latter without neglecting the former. 03:06:20.390 --> 03:06:22.130 You blind guides! 03:06:24.770 --> 03:06:29.290 You strain out a gnat, but swallow a camel. 03:06:29.290 --> 03:06:39.430 Woe to you, teachers of the law, and Pharisees, you hypocrites! 03:06:41.290 --> 03:06:48.290 You clean the outside of the cup and dish, but inside, they are full of greed, 03:06:50.110 --> 03:06:51.550 and self-indulgence. 03:06:53.290 --> 03:06:54.810 Blind Pharisee! 03:06:55.730 --> 03:07:01.350 First clean the inside of the cup and dish, and then the outside also will be 03:07:01.350 --> 03:07:02.050 clean. 03:07:04.550 --> 03:07:10.890 Woe to you, teachers of the law, and Pharisees, you hypocrites! 03:07:12.610 --> 03:07:18.350 You are like whitewashed tombs, which look beautiful on the outside, 03:07:19.710 --> 03:07:25.930 but on the inside are full of dead men's bones, and everything unclean. 03:07:25.930 --> 03:07:31.730 In the same way, on the outside, you appear to people as righteous, 03:07:32.730 --> 03:07:40.010 but on the inside, you are full of hypocrisy, and wickedness. 03:07:42.710 --> 03:07:50.810 Woe to you, teachers of the law, and Pharisees, you hypocrites! 03:07:52.310 --> 03:07:56.670 You build tombs for the prophets, and decorate the graves of the righteous, 03:07:57.510 --> 03:08:02.690 and you say, if we had lived in the days of our forefathers, we would not have 03:08:02.690 --> 03:08:05.570 taken part with them in shedding the blood of the prophets. 03:08:08.050 --> 03:08:14.010 So you testify against yourselves, that you are the descendants of those who 03:08:14.010 --> 03:08:15.170 murdered the prophets. 03:08:15.710 --> 03:08:26.640 Fill up, then, the measure of the sin of your forefathers, you snakes! 03:08:28.410 --> 03:08:30.660 You brood of vipers! 03:08:33.150 --> 03:08:36.910 How will you escape being condemned to hell? 03:08:41.880 --> 03:08:48.320 Therefore, I am sending you prophets, and wise men, and teachers. 03:08:51.150 --> 03:08:55.100 Some of them you will kill, and crucify. 03:08:56.260 --> 03:09:00.180 Others you will flog in your synagogues, and pursue from town to town. 03:09:01.160 --> 03:09:07.980 And so, upon you will come all the righteous blood that has been shed on 03:09:07.980 --> 03:09:08.260 earth. 03:09:08.820 --> 03:09:13.420 From the blood of righteous Abel, to the blood of Zechariah, son of 03:09:13.420 --> 03:09:20.240 Berechiah, whom you murdered between the temple and the altar. 03:09:24.200 --> 03:09:30.000 I tell you the truth, all this will come upon this generation. 03:09:47.870 --> 03:09:49.110 O Jerusalem, 03:10:05.450 --> 03:10:14.790 you who killed the prophets, and stole those sent to you, how often I have longed 03:10:16.090 --> 03:10:21.730 to gather your children together, as Anne gathers her chicks under her 03:10:21.730 --> 03:10:22.030 wings. 03:10:22.150 --> 03:10:23.150 But you were not willing. 03:10:27.000 --> 03:10:32.730 Look, your house is left to you desolate. 03:10:37.210 --> 03:10:43.950 For I tell you, you will not see me again until you say, Blessed is he who comes in 03:10:43.950 --> 03:10:44.730 the name of the Lord. 03:11:16.250 --> 03:11:21.890 Jesus left the temple and was walking away when his disciples came up to him to call 03:11:21.890 --> 03:11:23.630 his attention to its buildings. 03:11:23.630 --> 03:11:27.330 You see all these things, he asked. 03:11:30.300 --> 03:11:38.300 I tell you the truth, not one stone here will be left on another. 03:11:41.420 --> 03:11:45.600 Everyone will be thrown down. 03:11:57.210 --> 03:12:01.850 As Jesus was sitting on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to him 03:12:01.850 --> 03:12:02.470 privately. 03:12:06.970 --> 03:12:13.070 Tell us, they said, when will this happen? 03:12:13.990 --> 03:12:18.590 And what will be the sign of your coming and of the end of the age? 03:12:24.750 --> 03:12:34.770 Jesus answered, Watch out that no one deceives you, for many will come in my 03:12:34.770 --> 03:12:40.650 name claiming I am the Christ and will deceive many. 03:12:44.670 --> 03:12:53.110 You will hear of wars and rumors of wars, but see to it that you are not alarmed. 03:12:57.260 --> 03:13:00.680 Such things must happen, but the end is still to come. 03:13:04.270 --> 03:13:08.830 Nation will rise against nation and kingdom against kingdom. 03:13:09.930 --> 03:13:15.910 There will be famines and earthquakes in various places. 03:13:17.790 --> 03:13:21.510 All these are the beginning of birth pains. 03:13:21.930 --> 03:13:32.570 Then you will be handed over to be persecuted and put to death. 03:13:35.270 --> 03:13:38.410 And you will be hated by all nations because of me. 03:13:41.190 --> 03:13:48.510 At that time many will turn away from the faith 03:13:53.020 --> 03:13:56.320 and will betray and hate each other. 03:13:57.420 --> 03:14:07.980 And many false prophets will appear and deceive many people. 03:14:11.560 --> 03:14:16.400 Because of the increase of wickedness, the love of most will grow cold. 03:14:16.680 --> 03:14:19.620 But he who stands in the way and is transferred to the end will be saved. 03:14:20.460 --> 03:14:24.120 And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in the whole world as a testimony 03:14:24.120 --> 03:14:25.160 to all nations. 03:14:26.200 --> 03:14:27.620 And then the end will come. 03:14:29.540 --> 03:14:34.100 So when you see standing in the holy place the abomination that causes desolation 03:14:34.100 --> 03:14:39.380 spoken of through the prophet Daniel, let the reader understand. 03:14:40.880 --> 03:14:44.880 And that those who are in Judea flee to the mountains, let no one on the roof of 03:14:44.880 --> 03:14:47.460 his house go down to take anything out of the house. 03:14:48.440 --> 03:14:50.740 Let no one in the field go back to get his cloak. 03:14:53.120 --> 03:14:56.920 How dreadful it will be in those days for pregnant women and nursing mothers. 03:14:58.580 --> 03:15:02.020 Pray that your flight will not take place in winter or on the Sabbath. 03:15:03.080 --> 03:15:07.740 For then there will be great distress, unequaled from the beginning of the world 03:15:07.740 --> 03:15:08.500 until now 03:15:13.520 --> 03:15:18.540 If those days had not been cut short no one would survive. 03:15:19.720 --> 03:15:24.040 But for the sake of the elect those days will be shortened. 03:15:39.590 --> 03:15:48.370 At that time if anyone says to you look here is the Christ or there he is do not 03:15:48.370 --> 03:15:49.030 believe it. 03:15:50.550 --> 03:15:59.590 For false Christs and false prophets will appear and perform miracles to deceive 03:15:59.590 --> 03:16:01.490 even the elect if that were possible. 03:16:04.840 --> 03:16:07.160 See I have told you ahead of time. 03:16:09.760 --> 03:16:18.360 So if anyone tells you there he is out in the desert do not go out or here he is in 03:16:18.360 --> 03:16:19.180 the inner rooms. 03:16:20.560 --> 03:16:21.920 Do not believe it. 03:16:23.920 --> 03:16:29.920 For as lightning that comes from the east is visible even in the west so will be the 03:16:29.920 --> 03:16:31.180 coming of the Son of Man. 03:16:35.380 --> 03:16:38.120 Wherever there is a carcass there the vultures will gather. 03:16:39.780 --> 03:16:43.400 Immediately after the distress of those days the sun will be darkened and the moon 03:16:43.400 --> 03:16:44.420 will not give its light. 03:16:45.260 --> 03:16:49.460 The stars will fall from the sky and the heavenly bodies will be shaken. 03:16:51.560 --> 03:16:57.520 At that time the sign of the Son of Man will appear in the sky and all the nations 03:16:57.520 --> 03:16:58.700 of the earth will mourn. 03:17:03.090 --> 03:17:07.230 They will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of the sky with power and great 03:17:07.230 --> 03:17:11.130 glory and he will send his angels with a loud trumpet call and they will gather as 03:17:11.130 --> 03:17:14.110 elect from the four winds from one end of the heavens to the other. 03:17:15.090 --> 03:17:17.110 Now learn this lesson from the fig tree. 03:17:17.870 --> 03:17:22.230 As soon as its twigs get tender and its leaves come out you know that summer is 03:17:22.230 --> 03:17:22.450 near. 03:17:23.150 --> 03:17:28.530 Even so when you see all these things you know that it is near right at the door. 03:17:29.730 --> 03:17:31.090 I tell you the truth. 03:17:32.290 --> 03:17:40.370 This generation will certainly not pass away until all these things have happened. 03:17:43.260 --> 03:17:48.760 Heaven and earth will pass away but my words will never pass away. 03:17:50.580 --> 03:17:56.520 No one knows about that day or hour not even the angels in heaven nor the sun but 03:17:56.520 --> 03:17:57.260 only the Father. 03:17:58.620 --> 03:18:02.540 As it was in the days of Noah so it will be at the coming of the Son of Man. 03:18:04.720 --> 03:18:08.740 For in the days before the flood people were eating and drinking marrying and 03:18:08.740 --> 03:18:13.920 giving in marriage up to the day Noah entered the ark and they knew nothing 03:18:13.920 --> 03:18:20.440 about what would happen until the flood came that is how it will be at the coming 03:18:20.440 --> 03:18:21.280 of the Son of Man. 03:18:25.130 --> 03:18:29.770 Two men will be in the field one will be taken and the other left. 03:18:30.090 --> 03:18:35.690 Two women will be grinding with a hand mill one will be taken and the other left. 03:18:37.330 --> 03:18:42.670 Therefore keep watch because you do not know on what day your Lord will come. 03:18:45.070 --> 03:18:51.450 But understand this if the owner of the house had known at what time of night the 03:18:51.450 --> 03:18:56.250 thief was coming he would have kept watch and would not have let his house be broken 03:18:56.250 --> 03:18:56.670 into. 03:18:57.630 --> 03:19:04.130 So you also must be ready because the Son of Man will come at an hour when you do 03:19:04.130 --> 03:19:05.110 not expect him. 03:19:07.970 --> 03:19:12.810 Who then is the faithful and wise servant whom the master has put in charge of the 03:19:12.810 --> 03:19:15.930 servants in his household to give them their food at the proper time? 03:19:21.270 --> 03:19:24.910 I tell you the truth he will put him in charge of all his possessions. 03:19:26.050 --> 03:19:30.730 But suppose that servant is wicked and says to himself my master is staying away 03:19:30.730 --> 03:19:36.030 a long time and he then begins to beat his fellow servants and to eat and drink with 03:19:36.030 --> 03:19:36.610 drunkards. 03:19:38.070 --> 03:19:42.330 The master of that servant will come on a day when he does not expect him and at an 03:19:42.330 --> 03:19:43.830 hour he is not aware of. 03:19:44.570 --> 03:19:47.570 He will cut him to pieces and assign him a place 03:20:01.980 --> 03:20:02.540 in the kingdom of heaven. 03:20:02.540 --> 03:20:10.100 At that time the kingdom of heaven will be like ten virgins who took their lamps and 03:20:10.100 --> 03:20:11.580 went out to meet the bridegroom. 03:20:12.640 --> 03:20:17.040 Five of them were foolish and five were wise. 03:20:20.360 --> 03:20:25.860 The foolish ones took their lamps but did not take any oil with them. 03:20:26.960 --> 03:20:29.860 The wise however took oil in jars 03:20:33.480 --> 03:20:36.680 and the bridegroom was a long time in coming and they all became drowsy and fell 03:20:36.680 --> 03:20:37.080 asleep. 03:20:38.780 --> 03:20:43.300 At midnight the cry rang out here is the bridegroom come out to meet him. 03:20:45.260 --> 03:20:48.140 Then all the virgins woke up and trimmed their lamps. 03:20:48.920 --> 03:20:52.380 The foolish ones said to the wise give us some of your oil our lamps are going out. 03:20:52.760 --> 03:20:56.720 No they replied there may not be enough for both us and you. 03:21:03.480 --> 03:21:05.660 So they went away to buy the oil. 03:21:07.180 --> 03:21:08.540 The bridegroom arrived. 03:21:10.540 --> 03:21:14.840 The virgins who were ready went in with him to the wedding banquet and the door 03:21:14.840 --> 03:21:15.300 was shut. 03:21:18.690 --> 03:21:23.610 Later the others also came sir, sir they said open the door for us. 03:21:26.150 --> 03:21:32.670 But he replied I tell you the truth I don't know you 03:21:39.290 --> 03:21:45.450 or keep watch because you do not know the day or the hour. 03:21:55.590 --> 03:22:00.610 Again it will be like a man going on a journey who called his servants and 03:22:00.610 --> 03:22:02.250 entrusted his property to them. 03:22:07.390 --> 03:22:12.010 To one he gave five talents of money to another two talents and to another one 03:22:12.010 --> 03:22:13.730 talent each according to his ability. 03:22:17.150 --> 03:22:18.330 Then he went on his journey. 03:22:21.670 --> 03:22:25.890 The man who had received the five talents went at once and put his money to work and 03:22:25.890 --> 03:22:27.030 gained five more. 03:22:27.950 --> 03:22:30.390 So also the one with two talents gained two more. 03:22:31.530 --> 03:22:36.090 But the man who had received the one talent went off dug a hole in the ground 03:22:36.790 --> 03:22:38.190 and hid his master's money. 03:22:43.670 --> 03:22:47.070 After a long time the master of those servants returned and settled accounts 03:22:47.070 --> 03:22:47.510 with them. 03:22:53.500 --> 03:22:56.520 The man who had received the five talents returned to his master. 03:22:57.160 --> 03:23:01.280 Master, he said, you entrusted me with five talents. 03:23:01.680 --> 03:23:03.140 Si, I have gained five more. 03:23:03.320 --> 03:23:06.500 His master replied, well done, good and faithful servant. 03:23:07.360 --> 03:23:09.120 You have been faithful with few things. 03:23:09.260 --> 03:23:10.840 I will put you in charge of many things. 03:23:11.160 --> 03:23:12.980 Come and share your master's happiness. 03:23:14.200 --> 03:23:16.020 The man with the two talents also came. 03:23:16.280 --> 03:23:20.840 Master, he said, you entrusted me with two talents. 03:23:21.640 --> 03:23:23.300 Si, I have gained two more. 03:23:23.680 --> 03:23:27.820 His master replied, well done, good and faithful servant. 03:23:29.480 --> 03:23:31.760 You have been faithful with a few things. 03:23:32.120 --> 03:23:34.660 I will put you in charge of many things. 03:23:35.080 --> 03:23:36.600 Come and share your master's happiness. 03:23:37.180 --> 03:23:39.520 Then the man who had received the one talent came. 03:23:40.280 --> 03:23:45.080 Master, he said, I knew that you are a hard man harvesting where you have not 03:23:45.080 --> 03:23:47.660 sown and gathering where you have not scattered seed. 03:23:48.300 --> 03:23:52.620 So I was afraid and went out and hid your talent in the ground. 03:23:53.660 --> 03:23:55.980 Si, he said, here is what belongs to you. 03:23:56.160 --> 03:23:59.840 His master replied, you wicked lazy servant. 03:24:00.480 --> 03:24:07.420 So you knew that I harvest where I have not sown and gathered where I have not 03:24:07.420 --> 03:24:08.660 scattered seed. 03:24:09.340 --> 03:24:16.040 Well then, you should have put my money on deposit with the banker so that when I 03:24:16.040 --> 03:24:19.500 returned I would have received it back with interest. 03:24:22.080 --> 03:24:27.120 Take the talent from him and give it to the one who has the ten talents. 03:24:31.190 --> 03:24:34.650 For everyone who has will be given more 03:24:38.540 --> 03:24:41.380 and he will have an abundance. 03:24:43.000 --> 03:24:48.500 Whoever does not have even what he has will be taken from him and throw that 03:24:48.500 --> 03:24:53.700 worthless servant outside into the darkness where there will be weeping and 03:24:53.700 --> 03:24:54.780 gnashing of teeth. 03:24:59.460 --> 03:25:07.760 When the Son of Man comes in his glory and all the angels with him, he will sit on 03:25:07.760 --> 03:25:09.300 his throne in heavenly glory. 03:25:11.180 --> 03:25:15.880 All the nations will be gathered before him and he will separate the people one 03:25:15.880 --> 03:25:18.860 from another as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats. 03:25:20.620 --> 03:25:24.980 He will put the sheep on his right and the goats on his left. 03:25:28.380 --> 03:25:35.740 Then the king will say to those on his right, Come, you who are blessed by my 03:25:35.740 --> 03:25:37.260 Father, take your inheritance. 03:25:38.220 --> 03:25:41.260 The kingdom prepared for you since the creation of the world. 03:25:43.300 --> 03:25:48.580 For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat. 03:25:50.360 --> 03:25:53.360 I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink. 03:25:54.980 --> 03:25:56.940 I was a stranger and you invited me in. 03:25:57.080 --> 03:26:00.080 I needed clothes and you clothed me. 03:26:01.620 --> 03:26:03.440 I was sick and you looked after me. 03:26:03.480 --> 03:26:06.660 I was in prison and you came to visit me. 03:26:11.150 --> 03:26:15.310 Then the righteous will answer him, Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed 03:26:15.310 --> 03:26:15.550 you? 03:26:16.830 --> 03:26:19.930 Or thirsty and give you something to drink? 03:26:20.010 --> 03:26:22.490 When did we see you a stranger and invite you in? 03:26:27.310 --> 03:26:32.370 When did we see you sick or in prison and go to visit you? 03:26:33.950 --> 03:26:37.550 The king will reply, I tell you the truth. 03:26:39.590 --> 03:26:43.370 Whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, 03:26:46.470 --> 03:26:47.610 you did for me. 03:26:53.790 --> 03:26:56.810 Then he will 03:27:00.540 --> 03:27:02.240 say to those on his left, 03:27:05.480 --> 03:27:06.560 depart from me. 03:27:09.660 --> 03:27:18.020 You who are cursed into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels. 03:27:19.580 --> 03:27:24.680 For I was hungry and you gave me nothing to eat. 03:27:25.500 --> 03:27:28.060 And I was thirsty and you gave me nothing to drink. 03:27:29.480 --> 03:27:32.260 I was a stranger and you did not invite me in. 03:27:32.260 --> 03:27:35.500 I needed clothes and you did not clothe me. 03:27:36.000 --> 03:27:39.040 I was sick and in prison 03:27:42.420 --> 03:27:44.100 and you did not look after me. 03:27:46.600 --> 03:27:55.840 They also will answer, Lord, when did we see you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or 03:27:55.840 --> 03:27:59.100 needing clothes or sick or in prison and did not help you? 03:28:02.970 --> 03:28:07.190 He will reply, I tell you the truth, 03:28:10.290 --> 03:28:17.590 whatever you did not do for one of the least of these, you did not do for me. 03:28:24.650 --> 03:28:30.350 Then they will go away to eternal punishment 03:28:34.580 --> 03:28:36.580 but the righteous to eternal life. 03:28:58.480 --> 03:29:02.680 When Jesus had finished saying all these things, he said to his disciples, 03:29:03.700 --> 03:29:10.060 As you know, the Passover is two days away and the Son of Man will be handed over to 03:29:10.060 --> 03:29:10.680 be crucified. 03:29:24.860 --> 03:29:29.740 Then the chief priests and the elders of the people assembled in the palace of the 03:29:29.740 --> 03:29:36.820 high priest whose name was Caiaphas and they plotted to arrest Jesus in some sly 03:29:36.820 --> 03:29:38.680 way and kill him. 03:29:40.660 --> 03:29:46.800 But not during the feast, they said, for there may be a riot among the people. 03:30:12.460 --> 03:30:17.020 While Jesus was in Bethany in the home of a man known as Simon the leper, 03:30:17.680 --> 03:30:24.140 a woman came to him with an alabaster jar of very expensive perfume which he poured 03:30:24.140 --> 03:30:26.900 on his head as he was reclining at the table. 03:30:33.700 --> 03:30:36.640 When the disciples saw this they were indignant. 03:30:37.260 --> 03:30:38.620 Why this waste? 03:30:39.240 --> 03:30:40.000 They asked. 03:30:45.360 --> 03:30:48.120 This perfume could have been sold at a high price 03:30:52.430 --> 03:30:54.250 and the money given to the poor. 03:30:54.770 --> 03:30:59.190 Aware of this, Jesus said to them, Why are you bothering this woman? 03:30:59.830 --> 03:31:01.330 She has done a beautiful thing to me. 03:31:02.970 --> 03:31:06.450 The poor you will always have with you but you will not always have me. 03:31:10.560 --> 03:31:17.120 When she poured this perfume on my head, on my body, she did it to prepare me for 03:31:17.120 --> 03:31:17.520 burial. 03:31:20.000 --> 03:31:25.820 I tell you the truth, whoever this gospel is preached throughout the world, 03:31:26.620 --> 03:31:30.880 what she has done will also be told in memory of her. 03:31:36.700 --> 03:31:43.240 Then one of the twelve, the one called Judas Iscariot, went to the chief priests 03:31:43.240 --> 03:31:49.480 and asked, Lord, what are you willing to give me if I hand him over to you? 03:32:03.870 --> 03:32:08.610 So they counted out for him thirty silver coins. 03:32:22.920 --> 03:32:27.200 From then on, Judas watched for an opportunity to hand him over. 03:33:07.900 --> 03:33:12.400 On the first day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread, the disciples came to 03:33:12.400 --> 03:33:17.280 Jesus and asked, Where do you want us to make preparations for you to eat the 03:33:17.280 --> 03:33:17.680 Passover? 03:33:18.600 --> 03:33:25.000 He replied, Go into the city to a certain man and tell him, The teacher says, 03:33:25.460 --> 03:33:27.640 My appointed time is near. 03:33:28.520 --> 03:33:33.040 I am going to celebrate the Passover with my disciples at your house. 03:33:33.680 --> 03:33:39.340 So the disciples did as Jesus had directed them and prepared the Passover. 03:33:40.900 --> 03:33:41.240 Ha! 03:33:52.470 --> 03:33:56.950 When evening came, Jesus was reclining at the table with the twelve. 03:33:57.930 --> 03:34:03.010 And while they were eating, he said, I tell you the truth, one of you will 03:34:03.010 --> 03:34:03.610 betray me. 03:34:12.210 --> 03:34:18.650 They were very sad and began to say to him one after the other, Surely not I, 03:34:18.850 --> 03:34:19.190 Lord? 03:34:22.470 --> 03:34:27.750 Jesus replied, The one who has dipped his hand into the bowl with me will betray me. 03:34:44.860 --> 03:34:49.840 The Son of Man will go, just as it is written about him. 03:34:54.990 --> 03:34:57.990 Woe to that man who betrays the Son of Man. 03:35:01.110 --> 03:35:03.550 It would be better for him if he had not been born. 03:35:08.050 --> 03:35:14.290 Then Judas, the one who would betray him, said, Surely not I, Rabbi? 03:35:20.890 --> 03:35:23.610 Jesus answered, Yes, it is you. 03:36:21.110 --> 03:36:28.350 While they were eating, Jesus took bread, gave thanks, and broke it, and gave it to 03:36:28.350 --> 03:36:31.910 his disciples, saying, Take and eat. 03:36:33.990 --> 03:36:35.190 This is my body. 03:37:09.500 --> 03:37:14.740 Then he took the cup, gave thanks, and offered it to them, saying, 03:37:15.500 --> 03:37:16.780 Drink from it, all of you. 03:37:18.540 --> 03:37:21.560 This is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many for the 03:37:21.560 --> 03:37:22.500 forgiveness of sins. 03:37:37.270 --> 03:37:41.150 I tell you, I will not drink of this fruit of the vine from now on until that day 03:37:41.150 --> 03:37:43.470 when I drink it anew with you in my Father's kingdom. 03:37:53.280 --> 03:37:56.860 When they had sung a hymn, they went out to the Mount of Olives. 03:38:00.920 --> 03:38:07.140 Then Jesus told them, This very night you will all fall away on account of me, 03:38:07.240 --> 03:38:10.800 for it is written, I will strike the shepherd, and the sheep of the flock will 03:38:10.800 --> 03:38:11.400 be scattered. 03:38:12.420 --> 03:38:16.180 But after I have risen, I will go ahead of you into Galilee. 03:38:16.700 --> 03:38:21.440 Peter replied, Even if all fall away on account of you, I 03:38:32.020 --> 03:38:32.440 may... 03:38:32.860 --> 03:38:34.100 I tell you the truth. 03:38:35.080 --> 03:38:43.040 Jesus answered, This very night, before the rooster crows, you will disown 03:38:43.040 --> 03:38:44.160 me three times. 03:38:44.560 --> 03:38:52.180 But Peter declared, Even if I have to die with you, I will never disown you. 03:39:06.600 --> 03:39:09.440 And all the other disciples said the same. 03:39:28.680 --> 03:39:33.340 Then Jesus went with his disciples to a place called Gethsemane. 03:39:33.980 --> 03:39:37.960 And he said to them, Sit here while I go over there and pray. 03:39:48.590 --> 03:39:52.090 He took Peter and the two sons of Zebedee along with him. 03:39:52.610 --> 03:39:55.390 And he began to be sorrowful and troubled. 03:39:58.070 --> 03:40:04.190 Then he said to them, My soul is overwhelmed with sorrow to the point of 03:40:04.190 --> 03:40:04.450 death. 03:40:06.110 --> 03:40:07.850 Stay here and keep watch with me. 03:40:31.860 --> 03:40:37.160 Going a little farther, he fell with his face to the ground and prayed. 03:40:50.050 --> 03:40:52.030 My father, 03:40:56.070 --> 03:41:03.370 if it is possible, may this cup be taken from me. 03:41:06.390 --> 03:41:11.770 Yet not as I will, but as you will. 03:41:32.940 --> 03:41:37.560 Then he returned to his disciples and found them sleeping. 03:41:38.900 --> 03:41:42.100 Could you men not keep watch with me for one hour? 03:41:42.400 --> 03:41:43.280 He asked Peter. 03:41:50.060 --> 03:41:53.220 Watch and pray so that you will not fall into temptation. 03:41:58.250 --> 03:42:01.130 The spirit is willing, but the body is weak. 03:42:16.650 --> 03:42:19.050 He went away a second time and prayed. 03:42:36.630 --> 03:42:38.030 My father, 03:42:43.910 --> 03:42:55.090 if it is not possible for this cup to be taken away unless I drink it, 03:42:59.260 --> 03:43:00.700 may your will be done. 03:43:36.780 --> 03:43:42.140 When he came back, he again found them sleeping because their eyes were heavy. 03:43:48.200 --> 03:43:54.380 So he left them and went away once more and prayed the third time saying the same 03:43:54.380 --> 03:43:54.800 thing. 03:44:03.800 --> 03:44:06.840 Then he returned to the disciples and said to them. 03:44:07.260 --> 03:44:09.140 Are you still sleeping and resting? 03:44:25.370 --> 03:44:30.170 Look, the hour is near when the Son of Man is betrayed into the hands of sinners. 03:44:30.630 --> 03:44:30.890 Rise. 03:44:32.210 --> 03:44:33.150 Let us go. 03:44:39.630 --> 03:44:41.070 Here comes my betrayer. 03:44:41.710 --> 03:44:46.690 While he was still speaking, Judas, one of the twelve, arrived. 03:44:47.450 --> 03:44:53.910 With him was a large crowd armed with swords and clubs sent from the chief 03:44:53.910 --> 03:44:55.930 priests and the elders of the people. 03:45:01.960 --> 03:45:05.240 Now the betrayer had arranged a signal with them. 03:45:08.950 --> 03:45:10.570 The one I kiss is the man. 03:45:12.350 --> 03:45:12.990 Arrest him. 03:45:34.240 --> 03:45:40.880 Going at once to Jesus, Judas said, Greetings, Rabbi, 03:45:48.030 --> 03:45:48.930 and kissed him. 03:45:59.090 --> 03:46:04.750 Jesus replied, Friend, do what you came for. 03:46:11.510 --> 03:46:15.190 Then the men stepped forward, seized Jesus and arrested him. 03:46:15.910 --> 03:46:20.510 With that, one of Jesus' companions reached for his sword, drew it out and 03:46:20.510 --> 03:46:23.910 struck the servant of the high priest cutting off his ear. 03:46:23.990 --> 03:46:25.750 Put your sword back in its place. 03:46:27.970 --> 03:46:32.470 Jesus said to him, For all who draw the sword will die by the sword. 03:46:36.730 --> 03:46:39.930 Do you think I cannot call on my Father and He will at once put at my disposal 03:46:39.930 --> 03:46:41.970 more than twelve legions of angels? 03:46:45.730 --> 03:46:50.690 But how then would the Scriptures be fulfilled that say it must happen in this 03:46:50.690 --> 03:46:50.970 way? 03:46:53.650 --> 03:46:59.170 At that time, Jesus said to the crowd, Am I leading a rebellion that you come out 03:46:59.170 --> 03:47:01.310 with swords and clubs to capture me every day? 03:47:01.470 --> 03:47:04.750 I sat in the temple courts teaching and you did not arrest me. 03:47:07.170 --> 03:47:10.750 But this has all taken place that the writings of the prophets might be 03:47:10.750 --> 03:47:11.250 fulfilled. 03:48:06.270 --> 03:48:10.290 Then all the disciples deserted him and fled. 03:48:22.070 --> 03:48:26.470 Those who had arrested Jesus took him to Caiaphas, the high priest, where the 03:48:26.470 --> 03:48:29.090 teachers of the law and the elders had assembled. 03:48:29.830 --> 03:48:34.530 But Peter followed him at a distance, right up to the courtyard of the high 03:48:34.530 --> 03:48:34.870 priest. 03:48:41.360 --> 03:48:45.320 He entered and sat down with the guards to see the outcome. 03:48:47.840 --> 03:48:53.440 The chief priests and the whole Sanhedrin were looking for false evidence against 03:48:53.440 --> 03:48:56.040 Jesus so that they could put him to death. 03:48:56.560 --> 03:49:03.580 But they did not find any, though many false witnesses finally two came forward 03:49:03.580 --> 03:49:08.800 and declared, This fellow said, I am able to destroy the temple of God and 03:49:08.800 --> 03:49:10.400 rebuild it in three days. 03:49:11.120 --> 03:49:16.020 Then the high priest stood up and said to Jesus, Are you not going to answer? 03:49:16.880 --> 03:49:21.100 What is this testimony that these men are bringing against you? 03:49:22.340 --> 03:49:24.260 But Jesus remained silent. 03:49:27.860 --> 03:49:32.960 The high priest said to him, I charge you under oath by the living God. 03:49:33.760 --> 03:49:37.680 Tell us if you are the Christ, the Son of God. 03:49:40.720 --> 03:49:42.080 Yes, it is as you say. 03:49:42.240 --> 03:49:44.740 Jesus replied, What I say to all of you, 03:49:47.940 --> 03:49:51.600 in the future you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of the Mighty 03:49:51.600 --> 03:49:54.180 One and coming on the clouds of heaven. 03:49:54.560 --> 03:49:57.180 Then the high priest tore his clothes and said, 03:50:03.810 --> 03:50:06.070 Why do we need any more witnesses? 03:50:07.470 --> 03:50:11.470 Look, now you have heard the blasphemy. 03:50:13.930 --> 03:50:15.950 What do you think? 03:50:16.530 --> 03:50:18.190 He is worthy of death. 03:50:18.550 --> 03:50:19.170 They answered. 03:50:21.170 --> 03:50:24.810 Then they spit in his face and struck him with their fists. 03:50:33.220 --> 03:50:37.400 Others slapped him and said, Prophesy to us, Christ. 03:50:37.400 --> 03:50:38.600 Who hit you? 03:50:39.880 --> 03:50:45.100 Now Peter was sitting out in the courtyard and a servant girl came to him. 03:50:45.440 --> 03:50:47.800 You also were with Jesus of Galilee. 03:50:48.060 --> 03:50:48.560 She said. 03:50:50.620 --> 03:50:53.340 But he denied it before them all. 03:50:55.180 --> 03:50:56.700 I don't know what you are talking about. 03:50:57.080 --> 03:50:57.640 He said. 03:51:12.350 --> 03:51:16.590 Then he went out to the gateway where another girl saw him and said to the 03:51:16.590 --> 03:51:19.890 people there, This fellow was with Jesus of Nazareth. 03:51:20.190 --> 03:51:21.870 He denied it again with an oath. 03:51:23.430 --> 03:51:25.210 I don't know the man. 03:51:46.950 --> 03:51:51.770 After a little while those standing there went up to Peter and said, Surely you are 03:51:51.770 --> 03:51:54.770 one of them for your accent gives you away. 03:51:56.170 --> 03:52:01.870 Then he began to call down curses on himself and he swore to them, I don't know 03:52:01.870 --> 03:52:02.450 the man. 03:52:05.250 --> 03:52:08.030 Immediately a rooster crowed. 03:52:10.470 --> 03:52:13.930 Then Peter remembered the word Jesus had spoken. 03:52:15.070 --> 03:52:19.510 Before the rooster crows you will disown me three times. 03:52:20.690 --> 03:52:23.910 And he went outside and wept bitterly. 03:52:38.650 --> 03:52:44.490 Early in the morning all the chief priests and the elders of the people came to the 03:52:44.490 --> 03:52:46.730 decision to put Jesus to death. 03:52:47.550 --> 03:52:52.470 They bound him led him away and handed him over to Pilate the governor. 03:53:07.400 --> 03:53:13.940 When Judas who had betrayed him saw that Jesus was condemned he was seized with 03:53:13.940 --> 03:53:19.160 remorse and returned the thirty silver coins to the chief priests and the elders. 03:53:32.850 --> 03:53:34.930 I have sinned. 03:53:37.850 --> 03:53:44.650 For I have betrayed innocent blood. 03:53:48.480 --> 03:53:49.880 What is that to us? 03:53:50.280 --> 03:53:51.160 They replied. 03:53:51.780 --> 03:53:53.380 That's your responsibility. 03:54:04.630 --> 03:54:09.830 So Judas threw the money into the temple and left. 03:54:10.990 --> 03:54:15.370 Then he went away and hanged himself. 03:54:17.130 --> 03:54:23.290 The chief priests picked up the coins and said it is against the law to put this 03:54:23.290 --> 03:54:25.850 into the treasury since it is blood money. 03:54:26.610 --> 03:54:32.050 So they decided to use the money to buy the potter's field as a burial place for 03:54:32.050 --> 03:54:32.530 foreigners. 03:54:33.810 --> 03:54:37.670 That is why it has been called the field of blood to this day. 03:54:39.810 --> 03:54:47.290 And what was spoken by Jeremiah the prophet they took the thirty silver coins 03:54:47.290 --> 03:54:53.050 the price set on him by the people of Israel and they used them to buy the 03:54:53.050 --> 03:54:56.170 potter's field as the Lord commanded me. 03:55:28.410 --> 03:55:35.330 Meanwhile Jesus stood before the governor and the governor asked him Are you the 03:55:35.330 --> 03:55:36.150 king of the Jews? 03:55:41.740 --> 03:55:43.340 Yes it is as you say. 03:55:43.340 --> 03:55:44.880 Jesus replied. 03:55:50.750 --> 03:55:55.670 When he was accused by the chief priests and the elders he gave no answer. 03:55:57.370 --> 03:56:02.970 Then Pilate asked him Don't you hear the testimony they are bringing against you? 03:56:03.550 --> 03:56:10.550 But Jesus made no reply not even to a single charge to the great amazement of 03:56:10.550 --> 03:56:10.950 the governor. 03:56:12.570 --> 03:56:18.110 Now it was the governor's custom at the feast to release a prisoner chosen by the 03:56:18.110 --> 03:56:18.510 crowd. 03:56:20.970 --> 03:56:25.290 At that time they had a notorious prisoner called Barabbas. 03:56:26.010 --> 03:56:32.650 So when the crowd had gathered Pilate asked them Which one do you want me to 03:56:32.650 --> 03:56:33.510 release to you? 03:56:35.790 --> 03:56:39.810 Barabbas or Jesus who is called Christ? 03:56:40.010 --> 03:56:43.910 For he knew it was out of envy that they had handed Jesus over to him. 03:56:51.510 --> 03:56:56.470 While Pilate was sitting on the judge's seat his wife sent him this message. 03:56:59.050 --> 03:57:03.870 Don't have anything to do with that innocent man for I have suffered a great 03:57:03.870 --> 03:57:07.190 deal today in a dream because of him. 03:57:18.100 --> 03:57:23.000 But the chief priests and the elders persuaded the crowd to ask for Barabbas 03:57:23.000 --> 03:57:25.340 and to have Jesus executed. 03:57:29.770 --> 03:57:33.730 Which of the two do you want me to release to you? 03:57:34.370 --> 03:57:34.990 asked the governor. 03:57:42.820 --> 03:57:46.760 What shall I do then with Jesus who is called Christ? 03:57:47.160 --> 03:57:48.000 Pilate asked. 03:57:48.880 --> 03:57:51.980 They all answered Has 03:58:08.810 --> 03:58:10.090 he committed? 03:58:10.630 --> 03:58:11.570 asked Pilate. 03:58:12.350 --> 03:58:14.250 But they shouted all the louder. 03:58:20.890 --> 03:58:28.170 When Pilate saw that he was getting nowhere but that instead he went to the 03:58:28.170 --> 03:58:30.670 altar and washed his hands in front of the crowd. 03:58:33.990 --> 03:58:37.970 I am innocent of this man's blood. 03:58:38.510 --> 03:58:39.270 he said. 03:58:39.630 --> 03:58:41.710 It is your responsibility. 03:58:42.730 --> 03:58:44.290 All the people answered. 03:58:44.850 --> 03:58:46.870 Let his blood be on 03:58:57.450 --> 03:58:57.650 me. 03:58:58.130 --> 03:59:01.090 Then he released Barabbas to them. 03:59:06.670 --> 03:59:11.310 But he had Jesus flogged and handed him over to be crucified. 03:59:17.310 --> 03:59:22.330 Then the governor's soldiers took Jesus into the praetorium and gathered the whole 03:59:22.330 --> 03:59:24.250 company of soldiers around him. 03:59:24.930 --> 03:59:30.610 They stripped him and put a scarlet robe on him and then twisted together a crown 03:59:30.610 --> 03:59:32.690 of thorns and set it on his head. 03:59:33.670 --> 03:59:39.510 They put a staff in his right hand and knelt in front of him and mocked him. 03:59:39.510 --> 03:59:42.290 Hail, King of the Jews! 03:59:42.470 --> 03:59:43.010 They said. 03:59:43.570 --> 03:59:48.430 They spit on him and took the staff and struck him on the head again and again. 03:59:49.290 --> 03:59:53.450 After they had mocked him they took off the robe and put his own clothes on him. 03:59:54.130 --> 03:59:57.530 Then they led him away to crucify him. 04:00:01.290 --> 04:00:08.090 As they were going out they met a man from Cyrene named Simon and they forced him 04:00:11.070 --> 04:00:16.430 into a place called Golgotha which means the place of the skull. 04:00:41.530 --> 04:00:47.730 There they offered Jesus wine to drink mixed with gall but after tasting it he 04:00:47.730 --> 04:00:49.110 refused to drink it. 04:01:35.310 --> 04:01:42.530 When they had crucified him they divided up his clothes by casting lots and sitting 04:01:42.530 --> 04:01:45.010 down they kept watch over him there. 04:01:46.230 --> 04:01:46.810 Simon! 04:02:08.350 --> 04:02:12.430 Above his head they placed the written charge against him. 04:02:13.390 --> 04:02:16.390 This is Jesus the King of the Jews. 04:02:17.890 --> 04:02:20.190 Two robbers were crucified with him. 04:02:21.270 --> 04:02:23.650 One on his right and one on his left. 04:02:25.210 --> 04:02:31.770 Those who passed by hurled insults at him shaking their heads and saying you who are 04:02:31.770 --> 04:02:37.410 going to destroy the temple and build it in three days save yourself come down from 04:02:37.410 --> 04:02:39.710 the cross if you are the son of God. 04:02:43.150 --> 04:02:48.690 The same way the chief priests the teachers of the law and the elders mocked 04:02:48.690 --> 04:02:48.850 him. 04:02:49.470 --> 04:02:52.430 He saved others but he can't save himself. 04:02:53.450 --> 04:02:54.590 He's the King of Israel. 04:02:54.590 --> 04:02:59.390 Let him come down now from the cross and we will believe in him. 04:03:00.190 --> 04:03:01.630 He trusts in God. 04:03:02.470 --> 04:03:05.010 Let God rescue him if he wants him. 04:03:05.730 --> 04:03:09.470 For he said I am the son of God. 04:03:16.110 --> 04:03:21.510 In the same way the robbers who were crucified with him also heaped insults on 04:03:21.510 --> 04:03:21.730 him. 04:03:30.730 --> 04:03:36.830 From the sixth hour until the ninth hour darkness came over all the land. 04:03:38.470 --> 04:03:43.070 About the ninth hour Jesus cried out in a loud voice 04:03:51.770 --> 04:03:58.850 which means my God, my God why have you forsaken me? 04:04:00.970 --> 04:04:05.090 And some of those standing there heard this they said he's calling Elijah. 04:04:06.730 --> 04:04:12.350 Immediately one of them ran and got a sponge filled it with wine vinegar put it 04:04:12.350 --> 04:04:15.050 on a stick and offered it to Jesus to drink. 04:04:16.570 --> 04:04:23.610 But the rest said I'll leave him alone let's see if Elijah comes to save him. 04:04:45.250 --> 04:04:46.370 My God. 04:04:51.280 --> 04:04:58.180 When Jesus had cried out again in a loud voice he gave up his spirit. 04:05:22.040 --> 04:05:26.780 At that moment the curtain of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom. 04:05:27.660 --> 04:05:29.760 The earth shook and the rocks split. 04:05:30.740 --> 04:05:35.260 The tombs broke open and the bodies of many holy people who had died were raised 04:05:35.260 --> 04:05:35.840 to life. 04:05:36.460 --> 04:05:40.360 They came out of the tombs and after Jesus' resurrection they went into the 04:05:40.360 --> 04:05:42.260 holy city and appeared to many people. 04:05:43.420 --> 04:05:48.260 When the centurion and those with him who were guarding Jesus saw the earthquake and 04:05:48.260 --> 04:05:56.800 all that had happened they were terrified and exclaimed surely he was the son of 04:05:56.800 --> 04:05:57.340 God. 04:06:03.850 --> 04:06:07.370 Many women were there watching from a distance. 04:06:08.210 --> 04:06:12.270 They had followed Jesus from Galilee to care for his needs. 04:06:13.310 --> 04:06:19.930 Among them were Mary Magdalene Mary the mother of James and Joseph and the mother 04:06:19.930 --> 04:06:21.270 of Zebedee's sons. 04:06:26.130 --> 04:06:33.590 As evening approached there came a rich man from Arimathea named Joseph who had 04:06:33.590 --> 04:06:35.850 himself become a disciple of Jesus. 04:06:36.950 --> 04:06:43.650 Going to Pilate he asked for Jesus' body and Pilate ordered that it be given to 04:06:43.650 --> 04:06:43.950 him. 04:06:56.190 --> 04:07:03.230 Joseph took the body wrapped it in a clean linen cloth and placed it in his own new 04:07:03.230 --> 04:07:05.590 tomb that he had cut out of the rock. 04:07:06.530 --> 04:07:11.830 He rolled a big stone in front of the entrance to the tomb and went away. 04:07:13.270 --> 04:07:17.590 Mary Magdalene and the other Mary were sitting there opposite the tomb. 04:07:28.290 --> 04:07:34.830 The next day the one after preparation day the chief priests and the Pharisees went 04:07:34.830 --> 04:07:35.490 to Pilate. 04:07:37.930 --> 04:07:44.510 Sir, they said we remember that while he was still alive that deceiver said after 04:07:44.510 --> 04:07:46.250 three days I will rise again. 04:07:49.880 --> 04:07:53.180 So give the order for the tomb to be made secure until the third day. 04:07:54.280 --> 04:07:58.460 Otherwise his disciples may come and steal the body and tell the people that he has 04:07:58.460 --> 04:07:59.500 been raised from the dead. 04:08:00.660 --> 04:08:03.000 This last deception will be worse than the first. 04:08:10.610 --> 04:08:11.610 Take a guard. 04:08:11.870 --> 04:08:12.710 Pilate answered. 04:08:15.670 --> 04:08:18.130 Go make the tomb as secure as you know how. 04:08:28.800 --> 04:08:35.000 So they went and made the tomb secure by putting a seal on the stone and posting a 04:08:35.000 --> 04:08:35.380 guard. 04:08:41.170 --> 04:08:47.210 After the Sabbath at dawn on the first day of the week Mary Magdalene and the other 04:08:47.210 --> 04:08:49.070 Mary went to look at the tomb. 04:08:59.930 --> 04:09:05.250 There was a violent earthquake for an angel of the Lord came down from heaven 04:09:05.250 --> 04:09:10.290 and going to the tomb rolled back the stone and sat on it. 04:09:28.040 --> 04:09:32.360 His appearance was like lightning and his clothes were white as snow. 04:09:32.360 --> 04:09:36.400 The guards were so afraid of him they shook and became like dead men. 04:09:37.520 --> 04:09:42.360 The angel said to the women do not be afraid for I know that you are looking for 04:09:42.360 --> 04:09:43.620 Jesus who was crucified. 04:09:44.380 --> 04:09:45.200 He is not here. 04:09:45.420 --> 04:09:47.460 He has risen just as he said. 04:09:48.400 --> 04:09:50.360 Come and see the place where he lay. 04:09:51.180 --> 04:09:56.920 Then go quickly and tell his disciples he has risen from the dead and is going ahead 04:09:56.920 --> 04:09:59.060 of you into Galilee. 04:10:00.400 --> 04:10:04.400 There you will see him now I have told you. 04:10:08.200 --> 04:10:15.020 So the women hurried away from the tomb afraid yet filled with joy and ran to tell 04:10:15.020 --> 04:10:15.660 his disciples. 04:10:16.400 --> 04:10:18.640 Suddenly Jesus met them. 04:10:18.940 --> 04:10:19.340 Greetings. 04:10:19.960 --> 04:10:20.520 He said. 04:10:29.350 --> 04:10:33.090 They came to him clasped his feet and worshipped him. 04:10:36.410 --> 04:10:40.170 Then Jesus said to them do not be afraid 04:11:02.260 --> 04:11:05.220 go and tell my brothers to go to Galilee. 04:11:06.020 --> 04:11:07.620 There they will see me. 04:11:38.760 --> 04:11:43.200 While the women were on their way some of the guards went into the city and reported 04:11:43.200 --> 04:11:45.860 to the chief priests everything that had happened. 04:11:51.370 --> 04:11:56.550 When the chief priests had met with the elders and devised a plan they gave the 04:11:56.550 --> 04:12:04.250 soldiers a large sum of money you are to say his disciples came during the night 04:12:04.250 --> 04:12:07.430 and stole him away while we were asleep. 04:12:10.030 --> 04:12:17.010 If this report gets to the governor we will satisfy him and keep you out of 04:12:17.010 --> 04:12:17.350 trouble. 04:12:26.470 --> 04:12:30.290 So the soldiers took the money and did as they were instructed. 04:12:31.330 --> 04:12:36.090 This story has been widely circulated among the Jews to this very day. 04:12:41.470 --> 04:12:47.410 Then the eleven disciples went to Galilee to the mountain where Jesus had told them 04:12:47.410 --> 04:12:47.910 to go. 04:12:48.610 --> 04:12:53.250 When they saw him they worshipped him but some doubted. 04:12:54.110 --> 04:13:00.550 Then Jesus came to them and said all authority in heaven and on earth has been 04:13:00.550 --> 04:13:01.230 given to me 04:13:04.970 --> 04:13:08.030 therefore go and make disciples of all nations. 04:13:10.490 --> 04:13:13.870 Baptizing them in the name of the Father 04:13:16.950 --> 04:13:25.050 and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit and teaching them to obey everything I have 04:13:25.050 --> 04:13:26.170 commanded you. 04:13:29.050 --> 04:13:30.770 And surely I am with you always 04:13:35.120 --> 04:13:36.760 to the very end of the age. 04:13:46.330 --> 04:13:47.690 Amen.
