  1. I do not think adding to the code could have been possible, you are right there.
  2. On YouTube "DNA replication" this shows what I was trying to say. It may be possible.
  3. But it is interesting how hard Satan and clan attack, or tried to attack the blood of the promised seed of the women.
  4. Back in 1986, Michail T. O'buck an old friend of mine came up this DNA and RNA thing. Then last year I saw this documentary on how a gene is a machine, they showed it under a microscope, then this gene thing would follow this DNA code and make a cell. This stuff is way over my head. But Satan and his clan might be able to do this?
  5. Before the flood, Satan and his clan could by doing this DNA and RNA scheme, attack the blood line of the promised seed. After the flood is the Noah covenant, and yet there is Goliath, one big dude being killed by David. It is these Goliath looking dudes I was kinda wondering about. They found off the coast of Japan, somewhere under the water, these big temple building looking things. Tripe stuff.
  6. Gen. 2 asked about the giants somewhere, what is your thoughts on DNA and RNA. Could it be, that Saten and his clan, adjusted or something like that, the DNA and RNA code within the woman back in them days? If so, then that would explain why those angles are locked up, in Jude, because after the flood, they left heaven to start this DNA and RNA scheme again?
  7. That bus trip was in 2000, to the way, to show them what I was trying to write on the gospels. 6 months ago I stumbled crossed this Christine Hayes; that woman is a trip, mind bedding stuff. That is why most of Chapter1 and 2 in that Hebrews is gone, in that writing I did, that stuff in not in the TANAKH.
  8. Back in 1985, I tried to show this life to the way, but they kick me out. I said, that life in John 10:10 is not this life we have now, it is that life that the Father has within himself, in John 5:24or25 one of them two, and Yeshua was to have that life within himself. So I try to show how Yeshua got that life, "The Author" of geting that life. Chapter and Verse, so I put everything I have been stubbing and bubbling with over the years, and put it in one Chapter and Verse, just to mock at the way. Their is a group of words in the greek, where they changed the meanings of those words, so I changed them back to what they used to be. I sent those gospels twice to the way, one time on a gray hound, I got dropped off in a ally in Sidney, OH., and my Father got me ride on Hwy. 29; that was a trip, some sharif looking dude ran me off. Then I sent to them by mail, shot down in flames. Christine Hayes teaches a course, it is a free down load from Yale, the way is not teaching what they should be. I just thought it would be kind cool, to do what the way should be doing, reasoning out of the scriptures. I just thought it would so cool, by the time the way realizes, Christine Hayes made them rewrite their books, and before they can packet it up and sell it, it is here on the GreaseSpot Cafe. I have enough on here to stop the way from copy righting, these covered up truths.
  9. But, just maybe Mr. Pawtucket is taking a real close look at this, sure it needs a lot work, but were it needs to be fixed, is lying in people's boxes in their closet. Remember back in the old days on the wow field, doing a word study, knowing in your heart that Yahweh was showing you something; that is what needs to sent to Mr. Pawtucket; then we can add to this. This can never be copy righted, because it is always growing, with peoples dreams, "I know Yahweh showed me something he."
  10. But, just maybe one person is following along with this, just maybe. Maybe I can being a smile to just one person, for that smile, maybe they might let me do this.
  11. The Author of Life Everlasting Chapter 6 But Who, Do You Yourselves Say of Me, That I Am Then there gathered about Yeshua, Pharisees and Scribes, who had come from Jerusalem; and they saw some of his disciples eating bread, with their hands unwashed; and they censured it. For all the Israelites and the Pharisees, unless they carefully wash their hands do not eat; because they hold fast the tradition of the elders; and coming from the marketplace, except they purify, they do not eat; and there are many other things, which they have received to observe, such as the purification of cups, and of pots, and of brazen vessels, and of couches; and the Scribes and Pharisees asked him, “Why do your disciples transgress the tradition of the elders; and wash not their hands, when they eat bread?” And Yeshua said to them, “Well did Isaiah the prophet prophecy concerning you, you hypocrites; as it is written, Because that people has approached Yahweh with its mouth, and honored Yahweh with its lips, but has kept its heart far from Yahweh, and its worship for Yahweh has been a commandment of men. For, you have forsaken the commandment of Yahweh, and hold fast the tradition of men, the purification of cups, and of pots, and many things like these. Full well do you spurn the precept of Yahweh, that you may establish your tradition! For Yahweh told Moses to say, Honor your father, and your mother; he that reviles his father or his mother, shall be put to death; but you say, Whoever says to a father or to a mother, whatever you may be benefited from me, is my offering to Yahweh; then you suffer him not to do anything for him father or his mother; and you reject the word of Yahweh, on a account of the tradition which you hand down; and many things like these, you do.” And Yeshua called all the crowd, and said to them, “Hear, all you; and understand. There is nothing without a man which, by entering the mouth; can pollute him; but that which comes out of the mouth, that it is that pollutes a man. Whoever has ears to hear, let him hear.” And when Yeshua had entered the house, apart from the crowd, then came his disciples, and said to him, “Know you that the Pharisees were offended, when they heard that speech?” And he replied, saying to them, “Every plant, which my Father who is in heaven has not planted, shall be eradicated. Let them along; they are blind leaders of the blind; and if a blind man leads one blind, they will both fall into the ditch.” And Simon Cephas answered, saying to him, “Teacher, explain to us this parable.” And he said to them, “Are you also, up to this time, without understanding? Do you not know, that whatever from without enters into a mans mouth, cannot defile him? For it does not enter into his heart, but into his belly, and is thrown into the digestive process, which carries off all that is eaten; but that which proceeds from a mans mouth, comes from the heart; and that is what defiles a man. For from within, from the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts, adultery, whoredom, theft, false testimony, murder, avarice, malice, deceit, lasciviousness, an evil eye, reviling, haughtiness, folly. All these evil things come from within, and defile a man; but if a man eat while his hands are unwashed, he is not defiled.” And Yeshua departed from there, and went to the border of Tyre and Sidon; and he entered a house, and wished no man to know him; but he could not be concealed. For immediately a Canaanitess woman from those confines, whose daughter had an unclean spirit, heard of him, came forth, (The woman was a Gentile from Phenicia of Syria), calling out and saying, “Compassionate me, teacher, you son of David; my daughter is grievously distressed by an unclean spirit.” But Yeshua answered her not a word; and his disciples came and requested of him, and said, “Send her away, for she cries after us.” But Yeshua answered, saying to them, “I am not sent, except to the sheep that have strayed from the House of Israel.” And she came, and fell before his feet, and said, “Help me, teacher.” Yeshua said to her, “Permit the children first to be satisfied; for it is not proper, to take the bread of the children and threw it to the dogs.” And she replied, saying to him, “Even so, teacher; yet the dogs eat of the fragments that fall from the tables of their masters, and live.” Then Yeshua said to her, “Go you; because of this speech, O woman, great is your believing; be it to you, as you desire, the unclean spirit has departed from your daughter.” And she went to her house, and found her daughter lying on a bed, and the unclean spirit gone from her. Again Yeshua departed from the border of Tyre and Sidon, and came to the lake of Galilee, to the border of Decapolis; and they brought to him a deaf and stammering man; and besought him to lay his hand on him; and he led him aside from the crowd, and put his fingers into his ears, and spit, and touched his tongue, and looked towards the sky, and sighed, and said to him, “Be open.” And immediately his ears were opened, and the bond of his tongue was loosed, and he spake plainly; and he charged them to tell no man of it; and the more Yeshua charged them, the more they proclaimed it; and they admired exceedingly, and said, “He does everything excellently; he makes the deaf to hear, and the speechless to talk.” And in those days, Yeshua ascended a mountain, and sat there; and great crowds came to him; and with them were the lame, and the blind, and the dumb, and the maimed, and many others; and they laid them at the feet of Yeshua, and he healed them. So that the crowds were amazed, when they saw the dumb speaking, and the maimed made whole, and the lame walking, and the blind seeing; and they praised Yahweh of Israel. Then Yeshua called his disciples, and said to them, “I compassionate this crowd; for lo, these three days they have continued with me, and they have nothing to eat; and I am unwilling to send them to their homes fasting, they will faint by the way; for some of them have come from a great distance.” His disciples say to him, “Where can one, here in the desert, satisfy all these with bread?” And Yeshua asked them, “How many loaves have you?” They said to him, “Seven, and a few little fish.” And he directed the crowds to recline on the ground; and he took the seven loaves, and blessed, and brake, and gave to his disciples to set forth; and they set before the crowds; and the few fish; them he also blessed, and ordered them set forth; and they all ate and were satisfied; and they took up the remains of fragments, seven full baskets; and they that had eaten were four thousand men, besides women and children. And when Yeshua sent away the crowds, and immediately he entered a boat, with his disciples, and came to the coasts of Magdala, to the place of Dalmanutha; and Pharisees and Sadducees came out, and began to dispute with him; and, to tempt him, they demanded of him a sign from the sky; and he sighed with his breath, and said, “Why does this generation seek after a sign? Truly I say to you, no sign will be given to this generation. When it is evening, you say it will be fair weather; for the sky is red; and in the morning, you say there will be a storm today; for the sky is sadly red. You hypocrites, you are intelligent to discover the aspect of the sky, but the signs of this time, you have no skill to discern. A wicked and adulterous generation asks for a sign; but no sign shall be given it, but the sign of the prophet Jonah.” And Yeshua left them, and embarked in the boat; and they passed to the other shore; and they had forgotten to take bread with them, and had but a single cake in the boat with them; and Yeshua charged them, and said to them, “Take heed, and beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and the Sadducees, and of the leaven of Herod.” And they reasoned one with another among themselves, and said, “It is, because they had taken no bread.” But Yeshua knowing, and Yeshua said to them, “O you small in believing! Why reason you among yourselves, because you have taken no bread? Do you still not know, nor understand? How long will your heart be hard? And you have eyes, but see not? And have ears, but hear not, nor reflect? Do you not remember when I broke the five loaves to five thousand, how many baskets full of the fragments took you up?” They say to him, “Twelve.” Yeshua said to them, “And when the seven loaves to four thousand, how many baskets full of fragments took you up?” They say, “Seven.” Yeshua said to them, “Why is it that, to this time, you do not consider? How is it that you do not understand that it was not concerning bread that I spoke to you; but that you should beware of the leaven of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees?” Then understood they that he did not bid them beware of the leaven of bread, but of the doctrine of the Pharisees and of the Sadducees; and Yeshua came to Bethsaida; and they brought to him a blind man, and besought him to touch him; and he took the blind man by the hand, and led him out of the village, and spit on his eyes, and laid on his hand; and asked him, what he saw; and he gazed, and said, “I see men like trees which walk.” Again Yeshua laid his hand on his eyes, and he was recovered, and saw everything plainly; and Yeshua sent him to his house and said to him, “Neither enter into the village, nor tell any person in the village.” And Yeshua and his disciples went to the villages of Caesarea Philippi; and he questioned his disciples by the way, as he was praying in private with his disciples, and said, “Who, do men say concerning me, that I the son of man, am?” And they said to him, “That you are John the Baptizer; and others, that you are Elijah; and others, Jeremiah, or one of the ancient prophets arisen.” Yeshua said to them, “But who, do you yourselves say of me, that I am?” Simon Cephas replied, saying to him, “You are the Messiah of Yahweh, the son of the living Yahweh.” Yeshua answered, saying to him, “Happy are you, Simon, son of Jonas; for flesh and blood have not revealed it to you, but my Father who is in heaven. Also I say to you, that you are Cephas; and upon this rock, I will build my assembly; and the gates of death shall not triumph over it. To you will I give the keys of the sovereignty of Yahweh; and whatever you shalt bind on earth, shall be bound in heaven; and whatever you shalt unbind on earth, shall be unbound in heaven.” And he chided them, and charged them, that they should say that he was the Messiah to no one; and from that time, Yeshua began to teach his disciples, that he was to go up to Jerusalem, that the son of man was about to suffer much, and be rejected by the elders, and by the chief priests, and by the Scribes, and be killed, and raised on the third day; and Yeshua spoke out the thing distinctly; and Cephas took him, and began to rebuke him; and he said, “Far be it from you, my Messiah, that this should be to you.” But Yeshua turned, and looked upon his disciples, and rebuked Simon Cephas, and said, “Get you behind me, Satan; you are a stumbling block to me; for you think not the things of Yahweh, but the things of men.” And Yeshua called the crowd, together with his disciples, and he said before all the people, “If anyone desires to come after me, let him deny himself; and so come after me; for whoever chooses to preserve his life, shall lose it; and whoever will lose his life on my account, and of the tidings, shall preserve it; for what will a man be profited, if he gain the whole world, and lose his life or be deprived of it? Or what will a man give in exchange for his soul? For, the son of man is to come in the glory of his Father, with all Yahweh’s Holy angels; and then will he recompense to every man as his deeds are; for whoever shall be ashamed of me, and of my words, in this sinful and adulterous generation, of him also will the son of man be ashamed, when he comes in the glory of his Father, with Yahweh’s angels. I tell the truth, there are some standing here, who will not taste of death, until they see the sovereignty of Yahweh coming with power, the son of man coming in his kingdom.” And it was about eight days after these discourses, that Yeshua took Simon Cephas, and James, and John his brother, and conducted them alone to a high mountain to pray; and while he prayed, the aspect of his countenance was changed, his face shone like the sun; and his garments became white like the light, very white, like snow, so as men on earth can never whiten; and lo, two men were talking with him; and they were Moses and Elijah, who appeared in glory; and they were conversing on his departure, which was to be consummated at Jerusalem; and Simon and those with him were oppressed with drowsiness; and being scarcely awake, they saw his glory, and those two men who stood near him; and when they began to retire from him, Simon said to Yeshua, “Messiah, it is delightful for us to be here; and, if it please you, we will make here three booths; one for you, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah.” But he did not know what he said, for they were in trepidation; and while he was yet speaking, lo, a bright cloud overshadowed them; and they were afraid, when they saw Moses and Elijah go up into the cloud; and there was a voice from the cloud, which said, “This is my beloved son, in whom I have pleasure; hear you him.” And when the disciples heard it, they fell on their faces, and were much afraid; and Yeshua came to them and touched them, and said, “Arise, and be not afraid.” And suddenly, when the disciples raised their eyes, they saw no one with them, except Yeshua only; and as they descended down from the mountain, Yeshua charged them, and said to them, “Speak of this vision before no person, until the son of man shall be raised from among the dead.” And they kept that saying in their mind; and inquired, what does this saying mean, “When he shall be raised from among the dead!” And his disciples asked him, and said to him, “Why then do the Scribes say, that Elijah must first come?” Yeshua answered, saying to them, “Elijah truly does first come to prepare all things; and, as it is written of the son of man, he will suffer much, and be rejected; but I say to you, that Elijah has come; and they did not know him; and they have done to him all that they desired, as it was written of him; and, in like manner, also the son of man is to suffer from them.” Then the disciples understood, that he spake to them of John the Baptizer; and when Yeshua came to his disciples, he saw a great crowd with them, and the Scribes disputing with them; and immediately the crowd saw Yeshua, and were surprised; and they ran and saluted him; and he asked the Scribes, “What were you disputing with them?” And one of the crowd approached him, and bowed himself on his knees, and said to him, “Teacher, I beseech you, turn yourself to me. Here is my only son, compassionate me; I have brought to you my son, who has a unclean spirit that will not speak; and wherever it seizes him, and he suddenly cries out, it shakes and tears him; and he gnashes his teeth, and foams; and it hardly leaves him, when it has crushed him and grievously afflicted; for often he falls into the fire, and often into the water; and I brought him to your disciples, to cast it out; and they could not.” Yeshua answered, saying to them, “O unbelieving and perverse generation! How long shall I be with you? And how long bear with you? Bring him here to me.” And they brought him to him; and when the unclean spirit saw Yeshua, immediately it shook him; and he fell upon the ground, and wallowed and foamed; and Yeshua asked his father, “How long a time he has been like this?” He said to Yeshua, “Lo, from his childhood; and many times it has thrown him into the fire, and into the water, to destroy him; but, if you can do anything, aid me and have compassion on me.” Yeshua said to him, “If you can believe; everything can be, to him that believes.” And immediately the father of the child cried out, while he wept, and said, “I believe; aid you the defect of my believing.” And when Yeshua saw that the people were, running and collecting around him, he rebuked the unclean spirit, and said to it, “You deaf and unspeaking spirit, I command you, come out of him, and no more enter him.” And the unclean spirit cried out greatly, and bruised him, and came out; and he was as a dead person; so that many would say, he is dead; and Yeshua took him by the hand, and raised him up, and delivered him to his father; and they were all amazed at the majesty of Yahweh; and while everyone admired at all that Yeshua did, he said to his disciples, “Lay up these words in your minds; for the son of man is to be delivered into the hands of men.” But they understood not that speech; because it was hidden from them, that they should not know it; and they feared to ask him, concerning that speech; and when Yeshua entered the house, his disciples asked him privately, “Why could not we cast it out?” Yeshua said to them, “Because of your unbelief! For truly I say to you, that if there be in you believing like a grain of mustard seed, you may say to this mountain, remove from here, and it will remove; and nothing will be too hard for you; but this kind goes not out, except by fasting and prayer.” And when Yeshua departed from there, and while they were resident in Galilee; and he desired that no one might know him. For he taught his disciples, and said to them, “The son of man is delivered into the hands of men, and they will kill him; and when he is killed, on the third day, he will be raised up.” But they did not understand that speech; and they were afraid to ask him, and it saddened them much; and when they came to Capernaum, those who received the two drachmas of capitation money, came to Cephas, and said to him, “Does not your teacher pay his two drachmas?” He said to them, “Yes.” And when they entered the house, he asked them, “What disputed you among yourselves by the way?” And they were silent; for by the way they had contended with one another, which should be the greatest among them; and when Cephas had entered the house, Yeshua anticipated him, and said to him, “How does it appear to you, Simon? The kings of the earth, of whom do they receive tribute and capitation money? Of their children, or of aliens?” Simon said to him, “Of aliens.” Yeshua said to him, “Then the children are free; but still, lest they be stumbled with us, go you to the lake, and cast in a fishhook, and the fish that shall first come up, open its mouth, and you will find a stater; that take, and give for me and for yourself.” In that hour the disciples approached Yeshua, and said, “Who is the greatest in the sovereignty of Yahweh?” And Yeshua knew the thought of their heart, and Yeshua sat down, and said to them, “Whoever would be first, let him be last of all, and servitor to all.” And Yeshua called a child, and placed him in the midst of them, and took him in his arms, and said to them, “Truly I say to you, that unless you be converted, and become like children, you will not enter the sovereignty of Yahweh. He therefore, that shall humble himself like this child, he will be great in the sovereignty of Yahweh; and he that shall receive in my name, one who is like to this child, he receives me; and he that receives me, receives not me only, but him that sent me; for he that shall be least among you all, he will be the great one; and whosoever shall stumble one of these little ones that believe in me, it were better for him that a millstone were suspended to his neck, and that he were sunk in the depths of the lake. Woe to the world because of stumbling blocks! For it must be, that stumbling blocks come; but, woe to the person by whose means the stumbling blocks come. If then your hand or your foot make you stumble, cut it off, and cast it from you; for it is good for you to enter into life lame or mutilated, and not that, with two hands or two feet, you fall into eternal fire; and if your eye make you stumble, pluck it out and ast it from you; for it is good for you to enter into life with one eye, and not that, with two eyes, you fall into the hell of fire. See that you despise not one of these little ones; for I say to you, that their angels in heaven at all times, are beholding the face of my Father who is in heaven; for the son of man, has come to give life to that which was lost. How does it appear to you? If a man should have a hundred sheep, and one of them should go astray, will he not leave the ninety and nine in the mountains, and go and seek the one that strayed? And if he finds it, truly I say to you, that he rejoices in it, more than in the ninety and nine that did not stray. Just so, it is not the pleasure of your Father who is in heaven, that one of these little ones should perish. Moreover, if your brother commit an offense against you, go and admonish him, between you and him only. If he hear you, you have gained your brother; but if he hear you not, take with you one or two, that at the mouth of two or three witnesses, every word may be established; and if he will also not hear the congregation, let him be to you as a tax collector and a heathen. Truly I say to you, that whatever you shalt bind on earth, shall be bound in heaven; and whatever you shalt unbind on earth, shall be unbound in heaven. Again I say to you, that if two of you shall agree on earth concerning anything that they shall ask, it shall be to them from my Father who is in heaven; for were two or three are assembled in my name, there am I in the midst of them.” Then Cephas approached Yeshua, and said to him, “Teacher, how many times, if my brother commits offense against me, shall I forgive him? Up to seven times?” Yeshua said to him, “I do not say to you, up to seven times, but up to seventy times seven. Therefore, the sovereignty of Yahweh is like to some king, who wished to have a reckoning with his servants; and when he began to reckon, they brought to him one debtor of ten thousand talents; and as he had not wherewith to pay, his lord commanded him to be sold, him, and his wife, and his children, and all that he possessed, and payment to be made; and that servant fell down and did homage to him, and said, “My lord, have patience with me, and I will pay you the whole.” And his lord had compassion on that servant, and set him free, and forgave him his debt. Then that servant went out, and found one of his fellow-servants who owed him a hundred denarii; and he laid hold of him and choked him, and said to him, “Pay me what you owe me.” And that fellow-servant fell at his feet and entreated him, and said, “Have patience with me, and I will pay you the whole.” But he would not, but went and cast him into prison, until he should pay him what he owed him; and when their fellow-servants saw what was done, it grieved them much; and they came and made known to their lord all that had occurred. Then his lord called him, and said to him, “You vile servant! Lo, I forgave you that whole debt, because you entreated of me; ought not you also to have compassion on your fellow-servant, as I had compassion on you?” And his lord was angry, and delivered him over to the torturers, until he should pay all he owed him. So will my Father who is in heaven do to you, unless you from your heart forgive each his brother, his offense.” John said to him, “Teacher, we saw one casting out unclean spirits in your name, and we forbad him, because he does not, with us, follow you.” Yeshua said to them, “Forbid him not; for there is no one who does mighty works in my name, that can readily speak evil of me; for whoever therefore, is not against you, is for you; for whoever shall give you to drink a cup of water only, on the ground that you are the Messiah’s followers, truly I say to you, he will not lose his reward; and whoever shall cause one of these little ones that believe in me to stumble, it were better for him, if a millstone were put to his neck, and he cast into the lake; and if your hand make you offend, cut it off; it is better for you to enter into life maimed, that, having two hands, to go into hell; were their maggot dies not, and their fire is not extinguished; and if your foot make you offend, cut it off; it is better for you to enter into life lamed, than, having two feet, to fall into hell; where their maggot dies not, and their fire is not extinguished; and if your eye make you offend, pluck it out; it is better for you to enter with one eye into the sovereignty of Yahweh, that, having two eyes, to fall into the hell of fire; where their worm dies not, and their fire is not extinguished; for everything will be salted with fire; and every sacrifice will be salted with salt. Salt is a good thing; but if the salt become insipid, with what will it be salted? Let there be salt in you; and be you in peace, one with another.” After these things, Yeshua walked in Galilee, for he would not walk in Judah, because the Israelites sought to slay him; and the Israelites feast of tabernacles drew near; and the brothers of Yeshua said to him, “Leave here, and go into Judah; that your disciples may see the works you do; for there is no one who does anything in secret, while he wished to become public. If you do these things, show yourself to Israel.” For even his brothers did not believe in Yeshua. Yeshua said to them, “My time has not yet come; but your time is always ready. Israel cannot hate you, but me it hates; because I testify of it, that its deeds are evil. Go you up to the feast; I do not go up to this feast now, because my time is not yet completed.” These things he said, and remained still in Galilee; but when his brothers had gone up to the feast, then he also went up, not openly, but as it were secretly; and he sent messengers before his face; and they went, and entered a village of the Samaritans, to prepare lodgings for him; and they received him not; and when his disciples James and John saw it, they said to him, “Our teacher, would you be willing that we speak, and fire come down from the sky, and consume them, as also did Elijah?” And he turned and rebuked them, and said, “You know not of what power you are; for the son of man has not come to destroy souls; but to save!” And they went to another village; and as they went by the way, one said to him, “I will follow you to whatever place you go, my teacher.” Yeshua said to him, “The foxes have holes, and the birds of the air have a shelter; but the son of man has not where he may lay his head.” And Yeshua said to another, “Come you after me.” And he said to him, “My teacher, permit me first to go and bury my father.” And Yeshua said to him, “Allow the dead to bury their dead; and go you and proclaim the sovereignty of Yahweh.” Another said to him, “I will follow you, my teacher; but allow me first to bid adieu to my household, and I will come.” Yeshua said to him, “No man putting his hand to the ox-plough, and looking backward, is fit for the sovereignty of Yahweh.” And after these things, Yeshua separated from among his disciples, seventy other persons, and sent them, two and two, before his face, to every place and city whither he was to go; and he said to them, “The harvest is great, and the laborers few; pray you, therefore, the owner of the harvest, that he would send laborers into his harvest. Go you; lo, I send you forth, as sheep among wolves. Take to you no purses, nor wallets, nor sandals; and salute no man by the way; and into whatever house you enter, first say, peace be to this house; and if a man of peace is there, your salutation will rest upon it; but if not, your salutation will return to you; and remain in that house, eating and drinking of what it affords; for the laborer is worthy of his hire; and pass not from house to house; and into whatever city you enter, and they receive you; eat that which is set before you; and heal them that are sick in it; and say to them, the sovereignty of Yahweh has come near you; and into whatever city you enter, and they receive you not; go out into the street, and say; even the dust of your city which adheres to our feet, we shake off against you; but this know you, that the sovereignty of Yahweh has come near to you. I say to you, that for Sodom there will be comfort in that day, rather than for that city. Woe to you, Chorazin; woe to you, Bethsaida; for if in Tyre and Sidon there had been the mighty deeds, that were in you, they would long ago have repented in sackcloth and ashes; but for Tyre and Sidon, there will be comfort in the day of judgment, rather than for you; and you Capernaum, that are lifted up to heaven, shall be brought down to sheol. He that hears you, hears me; and he that despises you, despises me; and he that despises me, despises him that sent me.” And Yeshua arose from there, and came to the confines of Judah, on the other side of the Jordan; and great crowds came to him there; and again he instructed them, as he was accustomed, and he healed them there; and the seventy whom he sent forth, returned with great joy, and say to him, “Our teacher, even the unclean spirits were subject to us, in your name.” And he said to them, “I saw Satan fall, like the lighting from the air. Behold, I give you authority to tread on serpents, and scorpions, and on all the power of the adversary; and nothing shall harm you. Yet rejoice not in this, that the unclean spirits are subject to you; but rejoice, that your names are written in heaven.” In that hour, Yeshua exulted in Yahweh, and said, “I thank you, my Father, you Yahweh of heaven and earth, that you have hid these things from the wise and intelligent, and have revealed them to babes; yes, my Father for such was your good pleasure.” And he turned himself to his disciples, and said to them, “Everything is committed to me by my Father; and no one knows who the son is, but the Father; or who the Father is, but the son, and he to whom the son is pleased to reveal him.” And he turned to his disciples, privately, and said, “Blessed are the eyes that see what you see; for I say to you, that many prophets and kings, desired to see what you see, and did not see it; and to hear, what you hear, and did not hear it; and behold, a Scribe stood up to try Yeshua, and said, “Teacher, what must I do, to inherit eternal life?” And Yeshua said to him, “How is it written in the law? How read you?” He answered, saying to him, “You shall love Yahweh, with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your might; and love your fellow as yourself.” Yeshua said to him, “You have said correctly; do you, and you will live.” And he, being disposed to justify himself, said, “And who is my fellow?” Yeshua said to him, “A certain man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and robbers fell upon him, and plundered him, and smote him, and left him with little life in him, and went their way; and a certain priest went down by that way; and he saw him, and passed on. So also a Levite came, approached the spot, and saw him, and passed on; but a Samaritan, as he travelled, came where he was, and saw him, and took pity on him, and went to him, and bound up his wounds, and poured wine and oil on them, and placed him upon his foot, and brought him to the inn, and took care of him; and on the morning of the next day, he took out two denarii and gave to the host, and said, Take good care of him; and if you expend anymore, when I return, I will repay you. Which therefore of these three, appears to you to have been a follow to him that fell into the hands of marauders?” And he said, “He that had pity on him.” Yeshua said to him, “Go, and do you also the like.” And it occurred, as they travelled by the way, that he entered a certain village, and a woman, whose name was Martha, received him at her house; and she had a sister whose name, was Mary; and she came and seated herself at the feet of Yeshua, and listened to his discourses; but Martha was occupied with much service; and she came, and said to him, “Teacher, have you no concern, that my sister has left me to serve alone? Bid her to assist me.” Yeshua answered, saying to her, “Martha, Martha, you are anxious and troubled about many things; yet, but one thing is necessary; and Mary has chosen for herself the good part, which shall not be taken from her.” 

  12. The Author of Life Everlasting Chapter 5 My Yoke is Pleasant and My Burden is Light And when Yeshua had ended the instructions to his twelve disciples, he went from there, to teach and to proclaim in their cities. Now when John, in the house of prisoners, heard of the works of Yeshua, he sent by the hand of his disciples, and said to him, “Are you he that comes, or are we to expect another?” Yeshua answered, saying to them, “Go, tell John the things that you hear and see; the blind see, and the lame walk, and the leprous are cleansed, and the deaf hear, and the dead rise up, and the needy hear good tidings; and happy is he, who shall not be stumbled at me.” And when they were gone, Yeshua began to say to the crowds, concerning John, “What went you into the wilderness to see? A reed that waved in the wind? And if not; what went you out to see? A mam clothed in delicate robes? Lo, they that are clothed in delicate robes, are in the dwelling of kings; and if not; what went you out to see? A prophet? Yes, say I to you, and more than a prophet. Truly I say to you, among those born of women, there has not arisen a greater than John the Baptizer; yet the small one in the sovereignty of Yahweh, is greater than he; and from the days of John the Baptizer, until now, the sovereignty of Yahweh is assailed by force, and the violent seize it. For all the prophets and the law prophesied, until the time of John; and, if you are willing, receive you, that this is he who was to come. He that has ears to hear, let him hear! But to what shall I compare this generation? It is like to children, that sit in the marketplace and call to their associates, and say we have sung to you, and you did not dance; we have wailed to you, and you did not lament. For John came, not eating and not drinking; and they said, he has an unclean spirit. The son of man came, eating and drinking; and they say, behold, a gluttonous man, and a wine drinker, and a friend of tax collectors and sinners; but wisdom is justified by her words.” Then began Yeshua to reproach the cities, in which his many works of power were done, yet they repented not; and he said, “Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! For if the works of power done in you, had been done in Tyre and Sidon, doubtless, they would long ago have repented in sackcloth and ashes; but I say to you, it will be comfortable for the land of Sodom, in the day of judgment, rather than for you; and you, Capernaum which as been lifted up to heaven, shall be brought down to the grave. For if those works of power which were done in you, had been done in Sodom, it would have stood to this day; but I say to you, it will be comfortable for the land of Sodom, in the day of judgment, rather than for you. I praise you, O my Father, Yahweh of heaven and earth, that you have hid these things from the wise and knowing, and have revealed them to little children. Yes, my Father; for so it seemed good before you. Everything is given up by my Father to me. Come unto me, all you wearied and heavily burdened, and I will ease you. Take my yoke upon you; and learn from me, that I am gentle and subdued in my heart; and you will find rest for your soul; for my yoke is pleasant, and my burden is light.” At that time Yeshua, on the Sabbath, walked in the tillage grounds; and his disciples were hungry, and began to pluck the ears and to eat; and when the Pharisee saw them, they said to Yeshua, “See, your disciples are doing that which it is not lawful to do on the Sabbath.” But Yeshua said to them, “Have you not read what David did when he was hungry, and they that were with him? How he went to the House of Yahweh, and ate the bread of Yahweh’s table; which it was not lawful for him to eat, nor for them that were with him, but solely for the priests? Or have you not read in the law, how that in the temple the priests disregard the Sabbath, and are without fault? But I say to you, that a greater than the temple is here; and if you had known what that is, Yahweh desires goodness, and not sacrifice; you would not have criminated them who are without fault. For the son of man is the Anointed of Yahweh’s of the Sabbath.” And Yeshua went from there, and came to their synagogue; and a man was there, whose hand was withered; and they questioned Yeshua, and said, “Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath?” That they might defame him; and he said to them, “What man among you is there, who, if he have a sheep, and it fall into a pit on the day of the Sabbath, does not lay hold of it and lift it out? Now, how much better is a human being than a sheep! Wherefore, it is lawful to do what is good, on the Sabbath.” Then said Yeshua to the man, “Stretch forth you hand.” And he stretched out his hand; and it was restored, and like the other; and the Pharisees went out, and held a consultation against him, so as to do away with him; but Yeshua knew of it, and depart from there; and great crowds followed him; and he cured them all; and he charged them not to make him known. Then they brought to him a man possessed with an unclean spirit, that was dumb and blind; and Yeshua healed him, so that the dumb and blind man both talked and saw; and all the people were amazed, and said, “Is not this the son of David?” But when the Pharisees heard it, they said, “This man does not cast out unclean spirits, except by Beelzebub, the price of unclean spirits.” And Yeshua knowing their thoughts, and said to them, “Every kingdom that is divided against itself, will become desolate; and every house or city which is divided against itself, will not stand. Now if Satan cast out Satan, he is divided against himself; how then does his kingdom stand? And if I by Beelzebub cast out unclean spirits, by whom do your sons cast them out? Wherefore, they will be your judges; but if I by the power of Yahweh cast out unclean spirits, the sovereignty of Yahweh has come near to you. Or how can one enter the house of a strong man, and plunder his goods, unless he first bind the strong man? And then he may plunder his house. He that is not with me, is against me; and he that gathers not with me actually scatters. Therefore, I say to you, that all sins and blasphemies shall be forgiven to men; but the blasphemy which is against power, yea, the powerful power of Yahweh, shall not be forgiven to men; and whoever shall speak a word against the son of man, it will be forgiven him; but whoever shall speak against the power, yea, the powerful power of Yahweh, it will not be forgiven him; not in this age, and not in the age to come. Either make the tree good, and its fruits good; or make the tree bad, and its fruits bad; for a tree is known by its fruits. Offspring of scorpions, how can you who are evil, speak good things? For out of the fullnesses of the heart the mouth speaks. A good man out of good treasures, brings forth good things, and a bad man out of bad treasures, brings forth bad things. For I say to you, that for every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account of it in the day of judgment. For by your words you shall be justified; and by your words you shall be condemned.” Then answered some of the Scribes and of the Pharisees, and said to him, “Teacher, we would like to see from you a sign.” But he replied, saying to him, “A wicked and adulterous generation demands a sign; but a sign will not be given to it, unless it be the sign of Jonah the prophet. For as Jonah was in the belly of the fish three days and three nights; so will the son of man be in the heart of the earth three days and three nights. The people of Nineveh will stand up in the judgment against this generation, and will condemn it; for they repented at the preaching of Jonah; and lo, a greater than Jonah is here. The queen of the South will stand up in the judgment against this generation, and will condemn it; for she came from the extremities of the earth, to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and lo, a greater than Solomon is here; and when an unclean spirit goes out of a man, it wanders in places where there is no water, and seeks comfort and finds it not. Then it said, I will return to my house, from which I came out; and it comes, and finds it vacated and swept clean, and set in order. So it goes, and takes with it seven other spirits, worse than itself, and they enter and dwell in it; and the end of that man is worse than his beginning. So will it be to this evil generation.” And while Yeshua was discoursing to the crowds, his mother and his brothers came, and stood without, and sought to speak with him; and a person said to him, “Lo, your mother and your brothers stand without, and seek to speak with you.” But he replied, saying to him that informed him, “Who is my mother? And who are my brothers?” And Yeshua stretch forth his hand towards his disciples, and said, “Behold my mother, and behold my brothers! For everyone that does the good pleasure of my Father who is in heaven, that person is my brother, and my sister, and my mother.” And on that day, Yeshua went out of the house; and sat by the lake; and great crowds assembled around him; so that he embarked and seated himself in a boat, and all the crowd stood on the shore of the lake; and he discoursed with them much, by parables; and he said, “Behold, a sower went forth to sow; and as he sowed, some seed fell upon the side of a path; and a bird came and devoured it; and other seed fell upon a rock, so that it had not much soil; and it sprung up forthwith, because there was no depth of earth; but when the sun was up it wilted; and because it lacked root, it dried up; and other seed fell among thorns; and the thorns shot up and choked it; and other seed fell on good ground; and bore fruits, some a hundredfold, some sixtyfold, and some thirtyfold. He that has ears to hear, let him hear.” And his disciples came, and said to him, “Why do you speak to them in parables?” And Yeshua answered, saying to them, “Because, to you it is given to know the mysteries of the sovereignty of Yahweh, but to them it is not given. For to him that has, shall be given; and he shall abound; but from him that has not, even what he has, shall be taken from him. For this cause I speak to them in parable, because they see, and do not see, and hear, and do not hear, nor understand. For the heart of this people has grown fat, and with their ears they have heard heavily, and their eyes they have closed; lest they should see with their eyes, and should hear with their ears, and should understand with their heart, and should turn; and I should heal them; but happy are your eyes, for they see; and your ears, for they hear. For truly I say to you, that many prophets and righteous men longed to see what you see, and did not see it; and to hear what you hear, and did not hear it; but hear you the parable of the seed. Everyone that hears the word of the sovereignty, and understands it not, the evil one comes and snatches away the seed sowed in his heart; this is what was sowed by the side of the path; and that which was sowed on the rock, is he that hears the word, and at once receives it with joy. Yet has he no root in him, but is of short duration, and when there is trouble or persecution on account of the word, he soon stumbles; and that which was sowed among thorns, is he that hears the word; and care for this world and the deceptiveness of riches, choke the word; and he is without fruits; but that which was sowed on good ground, is he that hears my word, and understands, and bears fruits, and yields, some a hundredfold, some sixtyfold, and some thirtyfold.” Another parable he proposed to them and said, “The sovereignty of Yahweh is like to a man, who sowed good seed in his field; and while people were asleep, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat, and went away; and when the plant shot up and bore fruits, then appeared also the tares; and the servants of the householder came, and said to him, “Master, did you not sow good seed in your field? From whence are the tares in it? And he said to them, No, lest, while you gather out the tares, you also eradicate the wheat with them. Let them both grow together until the harvest; and at the time of harvest, I will say to the reapers, gather out first the tares, and bind them in bundles to be burned; but the wheat, gather you into my granary.” Another parable proposed Yeshua to them, and said, “The sovereignty of Yahweh is like to a kernel of mustard seed, which a man took and sowed in his field; and this is the least of all seeds; but when it is grown, it is greater than all the herbs, and becomes a tree, so that a bird of the sky, may come and nestle in its branches.” Another parable spake Yeshua to them, “The sovereignty of Yahweh is like the leaven, which a woman took and buried in three measures of meal, until the whole fermented.” All these things Yeshua spoke to the crowd in parables; and without parables he did not speak with them. Then Yeshua sent away the crowds, and went into the house; and his disciples came to him, and said, “Explain to us the parable of the tares and the field.” And he answered, saying to them, “He that sows the good seed, is the son of Yahweh; and the field is the world; and the good seed are the children of the sovereignty; but the tares are the children of wicked one. The enemy that sowed them, is Satan. The harvest is the end of the world; and the reapers are the angels. The son of man will send forth Yahweh’s angels, and they will gather out of Yahweh’s sovereignty, all the stumbling blocks, and all the doers of evil; and will cast them into a furnace of fire. There will be wailing and the grinding of the teeth. Then will the righteous shine as the sun, in the sovereignty of their Father. He that has ears to hear, let him hear. Again, the sovereignty of Yahweh is like a treasure that is hid in a field; which when a man finds, he conceals it, and, from his joy, he goes and sells all that he has, and buys that field. Again, the sovereignty of Yahweh is like a merchantman, who sought after rich pearls; and when he found one pearl of great price, he went and sold all that he had, and bought it. Again, the sovereignty of Yahweh is like a sweep net, which was cast into the lake, and collected fish of every kind; and when it was full, they drew it to the shores of the lake; and they sat down and culled over; and the good, they put into vessels, and the bad, they cast away. So will it be in the end of the world. The angels will go forth, and will sever the wicked from among the righteous; and will cast them into a furnace of fire. There will be wailing and the grinding of the teeth. Have you understood all these things?” They say to him, “Yes, teacher.” Yeshua said to them, “Therefore, every Scribe who is instructed for the sovereignty of Yahweh, is like a man who is master of a house, who brings forth from his treasures, things new and old.” And it was so, that when Yeshua had ended these parables, he departed thence, and he entered into his own city; and he taught them in their synagogues, in such manner, that they wondered, and said, “Where did he get this wisdom, and these works of power? Is not this man the carpenter’s son? Is not his mother called Mary, and his brothers James, and Joses, and Simon, and Judas? And all his sisters, are they not with us? Where then did this man get all these things?” And they were stumbled at him; but Yeshua said to them, “There is no prophet, who is little, except in his own city, and in his own house.” And Yeshua did not perform there many works of power, because of their unbelief. And at that time, Herod the Tetrarch heard the fame of Yeshua, for his name had become known to him, and he was disturbed; because some, said, that John had arisen from the dead; and Herod said, “John the Baptizer has risen from the dead; and therefore it is, mighty deeds are done by him.” But others said, that Elijah has appeared; and others, that a prophet from among the ancient prophets, has arisen; but when Herod heard, he said to his servants, “This is John the Baptizer whose head I struck off; but who is this, of whom I hear these things? He is risen from the grave; therefore, works of power are wrought by him.” And he was desirous to see Yeshua; for this Herod had sent and seized John, and bound him and cast him into prison; as a result of Herodias, his brother Philips wife, whom he had taken. For John had said to Herod, “It is not lawful for you to take your brother’s wife.” And he had wished to kill him; but he was afraid of the people, seeing that they regarded him as a prophet; and Herodias herself was an enemy to him, and wished to kill him, but was not able. For Herod was afraid of John, because he knew him to be a just and Holy man; and he observed him, and gave ear to him in many things, and did the things, and he heard him with satisfaction; and there was a noted day, Herod’s birthday festival, when Herod made a supper, in the house of his nativity, for his nobles, and chiliarchs, and the chiefs of Galilee; and the daughter of Herodias came in, and danced before the guests; and she pleased Herod, and those reclining with him; and the king said to the maid, “Ask of me what you please, and I will give it you.” And he swore by an oath to her, “Whatever you shall ask, I will give you, even to the half of my kingdom.” And she went out, and said to her mother, “What shall I ask of him?” She said to her, “The head of John the Baptizer.” And she soon entered with eagerness to the king, and she, as she had been instructed by her mother, and said, “I desire that you, this hour, give me here in a dish, the head of John the Baptizer.” And it pained the king greatly; nevertheless, as a result of the oath, and on account of the guests, he would not deny her, he commanded that it should be given her; and the king sent immediately an executioner, and command him to bring the head of John; and he went, and struck off the head of John in the prison; and the head was brought in a dish, and gave it to the maid; and the maid brought it to her mother; and his disciples heard of it; and they came and took up the corpse, and laid it in a sepulcher; and they went and informed Yeshua; and when the Apostles returned, assembled before Yeshua, and told him all they had done, and all they had taught. And Yeshua, when he had heard about John, said to his Apostles, “Come, let us go into a desert by ourselves, and rest a little.” For there were many going and coming, and they had not opportunity even to eat bread; and they went by boat, to the desert part of Bethsaida by themselves; but many saw them, as they departed, and knew them; and when the crowds heard of it, and from all the cities, they ran thither by land before him; and when Yeshua disembarked, he saw great crowds; and he had compassion on them, because they were like sheep having no shepherd, and he received them; and he began to teach them many things, respecting the sovereignty of Yahweh; and such as has need of healing, he healed; and Yeshua ascended a mountain, and there he seated himself with his disciples; and Yeshua raised his eyes, and saw a great crowd coming towards him; and he said to Philip, “Whence shall we buy bread, that these may eat?” And this Yeshua said, to try him; for he knew what he was about to do. Philip said to him, “Two hundred denarii in bread, would not suffice them, that each might take but a little.” And when the day began to decline, his disciples came near, and said to him, “This is a desert place, and the time is advanced, send away the crowds, that they may go into the fields around us, and may go to the villages around us, and to the towns; to lodge in them, and to procure themselves food; for they have nothing to eat, for we are in a desert place.” But Yeshua said to them, “It is not necessary for them to go; give you them to eat.” And they say to him, “Shall we go, and buy bread of the value of two hundred denarii, and give them to eat?” And he said to them, “Go, see how many loaves you have here?” And when they had seen, one of his disciples, Andrew, the brother of Simon Cephas, said to him, “There is a lad here, who has with him five cakes of barley, and two fish; but what are these for all those people?” Yeshua said to them, “Bring them here to me.” And he bid them, make the people recline on the grass by companies, fifty persons in a company. Now there was much grass in that place; and the disciples did so, and made them all recline, by companies of a hundred, or of fifty; and Yeshua took the five cakes and two fish, and he look toward heaven, and blessed, and brake the bread, and gave to his disciples to set before them; and the disciples placed before the crowds; and they divided also the two fish among them all; as much as they desired; and when they were satisfied, Yeshua said to his disciples, “Gather up the fragments which remain, that nothing be lost.” And they collected and filled twelve baskets, with fragments of what remained to them, that had eaten of the five thousand, besides the women and children; and he immediately constrained his disciples to embark in a boat, and go before him to the other side, to Bethsaida, while he dismissed the crowds; and those people, when they saw the miracle which Yeshua wrought, said, “Certainly, this is that prophet who was to come into Israel.” And Yeshua knowing that they were about to come and take him by force, and make him king; and when he had sent the crowds away, he ascended a mountain alone to pray; and when it was evening, his disciples went down to the lake, and sat in a boat, and were going over to Capernaum; and darkness came on, and Yeshua was there alone on the land, and he saw them straining themselves in rowing, tossed by the waves; for a violent wind was against them; and in the fourth watch of the night, Yeshua came to them walking on the water; and he was disposed to pass by them; and they had gone about five and twenty or thirty furlongs, when they saw Yeshua walking upon the lake, they supposed that the appearance was a spectre, as he drew near to the boat; and they cried out. For they all saw him, and were afraid; but Yeshua immediately spoke to them, and said to them, “Have courage; it is I, be not afraid.” Cephas replied, saying to him, “Teacher, if it be you, bid me to come to you on the water.” And Yeshua said to him, “Come.” And Cephas descended from the boat and walked upon the water to go to Yeshua; but when he saw the wind to be violent, he was afraid, and began to sink; and he raised his voice, and said, “Teacher, rescue me.” And immediately Yeshua reached forth his hand, and caught him, and said to him, “O, small in believing, why did you distrust!” And as they entered into the boat to them; and the wind ceased; and they were greatly amazed, and astonished among themselves. For they did not learn by the bread; because their heart was stupid; and they that were in the boat, came and did homage to Yeshua, and said, “Truly, you are the son of Yahweh!” And, they rowed on, and directly come to the land of Gennesaret; and when they went out of the boat, immediately the men of that place knew Yeshua; and they ran through all that region; and they sent to all the villages around them; and they began to bring forth them that were very sick, bearing them on quilts, to where they hear he was; and wherever he entered into villages or cities, the sick were laid in the streets; and they besought him, that they might touch but the extremity of his raiment; and all they that touched him, were healed. And the next day, the crowd, who had remained on the other side of the lake, saw that there was no other boat there, except that in which the disciples embarked, and that Yeshua did not embark in that boat with his disciples; yet, that other boats had come from Tiberias, near to the place where they ate the bread, when Yeshua blessed it; and when the crowd saw, that Yeshua was not there, nor his disciples; they embarked in boats, and came to Capernaum, and sought for Yeshua; and when they found him on the other side of the lake, they said to him, “Our teacher, when came you here?” Yeshua replied, saying to them, “Truly I say to you, you seek me, not because you saw the miracles, but because you ate the bread and were satisfied. Labor not for the food that perishes, but for the food that abides unto life eternal, which the son of man will give to you; for this one has Yahweh the Father sealed. They said to him, “What shall we do in order to work, the works of Yahweh?” Yeshua replied, saying to them, “This is the work of Yahweh, that you believe on him, whom Yahweh has sent.” They say to him, “What sign do you, that we may see and believe in you? What work you? Our fathers ate the manna, in the wilderness; as it is written, “He opened the doors of heaven, and rained manna upon them for food.” Yeshua said to them, “Truly I say to you, Moses gave you not the bread from heaven; but my Father gives you the real bread. For the bread of Yahweh gives life to Israel.” They say to him, “Teacher, give us at all times this bread.” Yeshua said to them, “I am the bread of life; he that comes to me, shall not hunger; and he that believes in me, shall not thirst, forever; but I say to you, that you have seen me, and do not believe. All that my Father gave me, will come to me; and him, that comes to me, I will not cast out, for I came not to do my own pleasure, but the pleasure of him that sent me; and this is the pleasure of him that sent me, that whatever he has given me, I should lose nothing of it, but should raise it up, at the last day.” Then the Israelites murmured at him, because he said, “I am the bread given by Yahweh.” And they said, “Is not this Yeshua, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? And how does he say, I am the bread given by Yahweh?” Yeshua replied, saying to them, “Murmur not one with another. No man can come to me, unless the Father who sent me, shall draw him; and I will raise him up, at the last day. Truly I say to you, that, to him who believes in me, there is life eternal. I am the bread of life. Your fathers ate the manna, in the wilderness, and they died; but this is the bread Yahweh sent, that a man may eat of it, and not die, I am the bread of life; and if a man shall eat of this bread, he will live forever. And the bread which I shall give, is my body, which I give for the life of Israel.” Then the Israelites contended one with another, and said, “How can he give us his body to eat?” And Yeshua said to them, “Truly I say to you, that, unless you eat the body of the son of man, and drink his blood, you have no life within you; but he that eats of my body, and drinks of my blood, to him is life eternal; and I will raise him up, at the last day. For my body truly is food, and my blood truly is drink. He that eats my body, and drinks my blood, abides in me, and I in him. As the living Father has sent me, so he that shall eat me, he also will live because of me. This is the bread Yahweh sent; not as your fathers ate the manna, and died; whoever shall eat of this bread, will live forever.” These things Yeshua uttered in the synagogue, while teaching at Capernaum; and many of his disciples who heard him, said, “This is a hard speech, who can hear it?” And Yeshua knowing that his disciples murmured at this; and he said to them, “Does this stumble you? It is Yahweh that gives life; the body profits nothing. The words which I have used with you, they are Yahweh’s, and they are life; but there are some of you, that believe not. For this reason, I said to you, that no one can come to me, unless it be given to him by my Father.” As a result of this speech, many of his disciples turned back, and walked not with him; and Yeshua said to the twelve, “Are you also disposed to go away?” Simon Cephas relied, and said, “My teacher, to whom shall we go? The words of life eternal are with you; and we believe, and know that you are the Messiah, the son of the living Yahweh.” Yeshua said to them, “Have not I chosen you twelve? Yet one of you is a devil.”

The Author of Life Everlasting Chapter 4 For Every Tree is Known By It’s Fruits And in those days, Yeshua retired to a mountain to pray; and he passed the night there, in prayer to Yahweh; and when the day dawned, he called his disciples whom he pleased; and they came to him; and he chose twelve to be with him, whom he would send out to preach, and who would have power to heal the sick, and to cast out unclean spirits, whom Yeshua named Apostles; Simon whom Yeshua named Cephas, and Andrew his brother, and James the son of Zebedee, and John the brother of James, and Philip, and Bartholomew, and Matthew, and Thomas, and James the son of Alpheus, and Thaddeus, and Simon the Canaanite, and Judas Iscariot; and Yeshua descended with them, and stood in the plain; and a great company of his disciples, and a crowd of people assembled, from all Judah, and from Jerusalem, and from the seashore of Tyre and Sidon; who came to hear his discourse, and to be healed of their diseases; and they who were afflicted by unclean spirits; and they were healed; and the whole crowd sought to touch him because power proceeded from him, and healed them all; and he lifted his eyes upon his disciples, and said, “Happy are you poor; for the sovereignty of Yahweh is yours. Happy are you that hunger now; for you will be satisfied. Happy are you that weep now; for you will laugh. Happy are you, when men shall hate you, and repel you, and revile you, and cast out your names as base, for the son of man’s sake. Rejoice in that day and exult, for your reward is great in heaven; for so did their fathers to the prophets; but, woe to you that are rich; for you have received your consolation. Woe to you that are full; for you will hunger. Woe to you that laugh now, for you will weep and mourn. Woe to you, when men shall speak your praise; for so did their fathers to the false prophets; and to you who hear, I say; love your enemies, and do favors to them that hate you; and bless them that curse you; and pray for them that drag you with violence; and to him that smites you on your cheek, offer the other; and from him that takes away your cloak, keep not back your tunic. To everyone that asks of you, give you; and from him that takes your property, demand it not; and as you would that men should do to you, so do you also to them. For, if you love them that love you, what goodness is it in you? For even sinners love those that love them; and if you do good to them that do good to you, what goodness is it in you? For even sinners do the same; and if you lend to one from whom you expect recompense, what goodness is it in you? For sinners also lend to sinners, to receive adequate recompense; but love you your enemies, and do them good; and lend you, and disappoint the hope of no one; and great will be your reward, and you will be sons of Yahweh; for he is kind to the evil, and to the unthankful. Be you therefore merciful, as also your Father is merciful. Judge not, and you will not be judged; condemn not, and you will not be condemned; release, and you will be released. Give you, and it will be given to you; in good measure, pressed down, and running over, will they cast into your lap; for with what measure you measure, it will be measured to you. Can a blind man lead a blind man? Will not both fall into the ditch? No disciple is better than his teacher; for whoever is perfect, will be like his teacher; and why observe you the splinter that is in your brother’s eye, but regard not the beam that is in your own eye? Or how can you say to your brother, my brother, allow me to pluck the splinter from your eye; when, lo, the beam that is in your own eye, you regard not. Hypocrite? First cast the beam out of your eye, and then your vision will be clear to pluck the splinter from your brother’s eye. There is no good tree that bears bad fruits; nor a bad tree, that bears good fruits; for every tree is known by its fruits. Do men gather figs from thorn-bushes? So, neither do they pluck grapes from brambles. A good man, from the good treasure that is in his heart, brings out good things; and a bad man, from the bad treasure that is in his heart, brings out bad things; for, from the abundance of the heart, the lips speak; and why call you me, teacher, teacher, while you do not do what I say? Everyone that comes to me, and hears my words, and does them, I will show to whom he is like; he is like a man that built a house; and he dug and went deep, and laid the foundations on a rock; and when a flood occurred, the flood rushed upon that house, and could not move it, for its foundation rested on a rock; but he that hears and does not, is like a man that built his house upon the earth, without a foundation; and when the torrent rushed upon it, it fell immediately, and the ruin of that house was great.” And when Yeshua had finished all these discourses in the audience of the people, Yeshua entered into Capernaum. And they came to the house; and the crowd assembled again, so that they could not eat bread; and Yeshua’s kinsmen heard, and went out to take him; for they said, “He is out of his reason.” And those Scribes that had come down from Jerusalem, said, “Beelzebub is in him; and by the prince of unclean spirits he expels unclean spirits.” And Yeshua called them, and said to them, by parables, “How can Satan cast out Satan? For if a kingdom be divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand; and if a house be divided against itself, that house cannot stand; and if Satan rise up against himself and be divided, he cannot stand, but is at an end. No one can enter the house of a strong man, and plunder his goods, unless he first bind the strong man; and then he may rob his house. Truly I say to you; all sins, and the blasphemies that men may utter, may be forgiven them; but whoever shall blaspheme against power, yea, the powerful power from of Yahweh, to him forever there is not forgiveness; but he is obnoxious to eternal judgment.” Because they had said, the power of an unclean spirit is in him; and his mother, and his brothers came, and, standing without, sent to call him to them; and the crowd were sitting around him, and they said to him, “Lo, your mother, and your brothers, without, call for you.” Yeshua replied, saying to them, “Who is my mother? And who are my brothers?” And he looked upon those who sat by him, and said, “Behold my mother? And, behold my brothers! For whoever shall do the pleasure of Yahweh, he is my brother, and my sister, and my mother.” And the servant of a centurion, who was dear to him, was very sick, and near to death; and he heard of Yeshua, and sent the elders of the Israelites to him, and requested of him that he would come, and save the life of his servant; and when they came to Yeshua, they entreated him earnestly, and said, “He is worthy that you should do this for him; for he loves our nation, and has also built us a house of assembly.” And Yeshua went with them; and when he was not far from the house, the centurion sent his friends to him, and said to him, “Sir, trouble not yourself, for I am not worthy that you should come under my roof; therefore I deemed myself not worthy to approach you myself; but speak the word only, and my young man will be healed; for I also am a man subjected to authority; and I have soldiers under my command; and I say to this one, go; and he goes; and to another, come; and he comes; and to my servant, do this; and he does it.” And when Yeshua heard these things, he admired him; and he turned, and said to the people that followed him, “I say to you, I have not found believing like this even in Israel.” And they that were sent, returned to the house; and they found the servant that had been sick, now well; and the following day, Yeshua went to a city called Nain; and his disciples were with him, and a great crowd; and as he approached the gate of the city, he saw a procession bearing a dead man, the only son of his mother, and she a widow; and a great company of the people of the city were with her; and Yeshua looked upon her, and had compassion on her; and he said to her, “Weep not.” And he went, and touched the bier; and they that bore him stood still; and he said, “Young man, I say to you, arise.” And the dead man sat up, and began to speak; and Yeshua delivered him to his mother; and awe seized all the people; and they glorified Yahweh, and said, “A great prophet has arisen among us, for Yahweh has looked upon his people.” And that saying respecting Yeshua went out through all Judah, and all the surrounding region. And the disciples of John told John all these things; and John called two of his disciples, and sent them to Yeshua, to ask, “Are you he that comes, or shall we look for another?” And they came to Yeshua, and said to him, “John the Baptizer has sent us to you, to ask, are you he that comes, or shall we look for another?” And in that hour Yeshua healed many persons of their diseases, and of plagues, and of unclean spirits, and gave sight to many blind persons; and Yeshua replied, saying to them, “Go you, and tell John all that you have seen and heard; that the blind see, and the lame walk, and the leprous are cleansed, and the deaf hear, and the dead arise, and to the poor good news is proclaimed; and happy is he that is not stumbled in me.” And when John’s disciples were gone, Yeshua began to say to the crowd, concerning John, “What went you into the wilderness to see? A reed agitated by the wind? Or if not; what went you out to see? A man clad in soft raiment? Lo, they that use splendid garments and luxuries, are in king’s palaces. Or if not; what went you out to see? A prophet? Yea, say I to you; and more than a prophet. I say to you, that no prophet, among those born of women, was greater than John the Baptizer; and yet the little one in the sovereignty of Yahweh, is greater than he.” And all the people that heard him, justified Yahweh, as they had been baptized with John’s baptism; but the Pharisees and Scribes rejected the good pleasure of Yahweh, against themselves; as they were not baptized by him. Yeshua said to them, “To what, therefore, shall I compare this generation? And to what are they like? They are like children, that sit in the marketplace, and call to their fellows and say; we have piped to you, and you did not dance; we have howled to you, and you did not weep; for John the Baptizer came, not eating bread, and not drinking wine; and you say, he has a unclean spirit. The son of man came; eating and drinking; and you say, behold, a gluttonous man, and a wine drinker, and one fond of tax collectors and sinners; but wisdom is justified by all her children.” And one of the Pharisees came, and asked Yeshua to eat with him; and Yeshua entered the house of the Pharisee, and reclined; and there was a woman in the city, who was a sinner; and when she learned that Yeshua reclined in the Pharisee’s house, she took an alabaster box of perfume, and stood behind him, at his feet and wept; and she began to bathe his feet with her tears, and to wipe them with the hair of her head; and she kissed his feet, and anointed them with the perfume; and when the Pharisee that invited him, saw it he thought within himself, and said, “If this man were a prophet, he would know who she is, and what is her reputation; for the woman that touches him is a sinner.” And Yeshua answered, saying to him, “Simon, I have something to say to you.” He said to him, “Say it, teacher.” Yeshua said to him, “There were two debtors to a certain creditor; the one owed him five hundred denarii, and the other fifty denarii; and as they had not the means of pay, he released them both. Which of them, therefore will love him most?” Simon replied, and said, “I suppose he to whom most was released.” Yeshua said to him, “You have judged correctly.” And Yeshua turned to the woman, and said to Simon, “See you this woman? I entered your house, and you gave me no water for my feet; but she has bathed my feet with her tears, and wiped them with her hair. You gave me no kiss; but this woman, since she came in, has not ceased to kiss my feet. You did not anoint my head with perfume; but she has anointed my feet with perfumed ointment. I therefore say to you, her many sins are forgiven her, for she loves much; but he, to whom little is forgiven, loves little.” And Yeshua said to the woman, “Your sins are forgiven you.” And they that were reclining, began to say in themselves, “Who is this man, who forgives even sins?” And Yeshua said to the woman, “Your believing has given you life. Go, in peace.” And after these things, Yeshua travelled about the cities and the villages, and proclaimed and announced the sovereignty of Yahweh; and with him were his twelve, and those woman who were healed of infirmities and of unclean spirits, Mary called Magdalena, out of whom went seven unclean spirits, and Joanna the wife of Chusa, Herod’s steward, and Susanna, and many others, who ministered to them of their property; and again Yeshua began to teach by the side of the lake; and when a great crowd was assembled about him, and people came to him from all the cities; so that he embarked and sat in a boat on the lake, and all the crowd stood on the land by the side of the lake; and he taught them much by parables; and in his teaching, he said, “Hear you; behold, a sower went forth to sow; and as he sowed; some seed fell on the side of the path, and was trodden upon; and a bird came, and devoured it; and other seed fell on a rock, so that it had not much earth, and it soon shot up because it had no depth of earth; but when the sun was up, it wilted, as it lacked moisture; and because it had not root, it dried up; and other seed fell among thorns; and the thorns grew up and choked it, and it yields no fruits; and other seed fell on good and fair ground, and sprung up and grew, and yielded fruits; some thirty, some sixty, and some a hundred.” Having said these things, he cried, “He that has ears to hear, let him hear.” And when they were by themselves, those with him, together with the twelve, asked him concerning this parable; and Yeshua said to them, “To you it is given, to know the mysteries of the sovereignty of Yahweh; but to others, it is spoken in parables; that, when they see, they may see and not see, and when they hear, they may hear and not understand; lest they should be converted, and their sins be forgiven them. Do you not understand this parable? And how will you understand all parables? But this is the parable, the seed is the word of Yahweh. The sower that sowed, sowed the word; and those by the side of the path, are they in whom the word is sown; and as soon as they have heard it, Satan comes, and takes away the word that was sown in their hearts, that they may not believe and live; and those sown upon the rock, are they who when they hear the word, immediately with joy receive it; but they have no root in them, and their believing is temporary, and in time of temptation they are stumbled; and when there is affliction or persecution as a result of the word, they are quickly stumbled; and those sown among thorns, are they that hear the word, and the cares of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, and the residue of other lusts enter in and choke the word, and it is without fruits; and those sown on good ground, are those who with a humble and good heart, hear the word, and retain it and with patience bring forth fruits, by thirties, and by sixties, and by hundreds. No one lights a lamp, and covers it with a vessel, or places it under a bed, but sets it upon a light-stand that all who come in, may see the light of it; for there is nothing hid, which will not be exposed; nothing covered, that shall not be uncovered; nor concealed, that shall not be known, and become manifest. Take heed what you hear, with what measure you measure, it shall be measured to you; and there shall more be given to you who hear. Take heed how you hear, for to him that has, will more be given; and from him that has not, even what he thinks he has, will be taken from him. So is the sovereignty of Yahweh, as if a man should cast seed into the ground, and should sleep and rise, by night and by day, and the seed should grow and shoot up, he knows not how; for the earth brings forth the fruit; first the plant, and subsequently the ear, and at last the complete wheat in the ear; and when the fruit is ripe, immediately comes the sickle, because the harvest has arrived. To what shall we liken the sovereignty of Yahweh? And with what parable shall we compare it? It is like a grain of mustard seed which, when it is sown in the earth, is the least of all seeds sown on the earth; and when it is sown, it springs up, and becomes greater than all herbs, and produces great branches, so that birds can lodge under its shadow.” And Yeshua’s mother and his brothers came to him, and they could not speak with him, because of the crowd; and they say to him, “Your mother and your brothers stand without, and wish to see you.” And Yeshua answered and said, “My mother and my brothers, are they who hear the word of Yahweh, and do it” And by many such parables, parables such as they could hear, Yeshua discoursed with the people; and without parables he did not converse with them; but to his disciples, between himself and them, he explained everything. On that day at evening, Yeshua embarked and sat in a boat, he and his disciples; and he said to them, “Let us pass over to the other side of the lake.” And they left the people, and took him away; and their were also with him other little boats; and while they were rowing, Yeshua fell asleep; and there was a great tempest and wind; and the waves beat upon the boat, and it was near being filled; and Yeshua was asleep on a pillow in the hinder part of the boat; and they came and awoke him, saying to them, “Teacher, teacher, care you not, that we are perishing?” And he arose, and rebuked the wind, and said to the lake, “Cease; be still.” And they ceased, and there was a great calm; and he said to them, “Where is your believing? Why were you so fearful? And why have you not believing?” And they being in awe, wondered; they feared with great fear, and they said, one to another, “Who is this, that commands even the wind, and the waves, and the lake; and they obey him?” And they rowed on, and came to the country of the Gadarenes, which lies over against Galilee; and as he went out of the boat upon the land, there, met him from the place of the tombs, a man of the city, in whom had been an unclean spirit for of a long time; and he wore no clothing, and did not reside in a house, but among the tombs; and no one could confine him with chains; because, as often as he had been confined with fetters and chains, he had broken the chains and burst the fetters; and no one could subdue him, and had been driven by the unclean spirit into the desert; and continually, by night and by day, he was in the tombs, and cried and wounded himself with stones; and when he saw Yeshua at a distance, he ran and fell down before him; and cried out with a loud voice, and said, “What have we to do with you Yeshua, you son of Yahweh? I adjure you by Yahweh; I entreat of you, that you torment me not.” For Yeshua had said to him, “Come out of the man, you unclean spirit.” And Yeshua demanded of it, “What is your name?” And he replied to him, “Our name is Legion; for we are many.” Because many unclean spirits had entered into him; and they besought Yeshua, not to command them into the abyss; and he besought him much, that he would not send him out of the country; and there was there by the mountain a great herd of swine grazing; and the unclean spirits besought him, and said, “Send us upon those swine that we may enter them.” And Yeshua permitted them; and those unclean spirits went out, and entered the swine; and the herd, of about two thousand, ran to a cliff, and plunged into the lake, and were strangled in the water; and when they who tended them saw what had occurred, they fled, and told it in the city, and in the villages; and they came out to see what was done; and they came to Yeshua, and found the man, him in whom had been the Legion, now clothed, sober and modest, and sitting at the feet of Yeshua; and they were awed; and those who had seen it, told them how it occurred to him who had the unclean spirits, and also concerning the swine; and the whole throng of the Gadarenes requested Yeshua, that he would depart from their border; for great fear had seized them; and as Yeshua ascended the boat, the man from whom the unclean spirits had gone out, requested that he might continue with him; and Yeshua suffered him not, but said to him, “Go home to your people, and relate what Yahweh has done for you, and has compassionated you.” And he went away, and began to proclaim through all the Ten Cities what Yeshua had done for him; and they were all amazed. And when Yeshua had passed by boat to the other side, great crowds again assembled about him as he was on the shore of the lake; for all were looking for him; and a man, whose name was Jairus, a chief of the synagogue, came, and, on seeing Yeshua, fell down at the feet of Yeshua, and besought him much to enter his house; and said to him, “My daughter is very sick; but come and lay your hand on her, and she will be healed, and live.” And Yeshua went with him; and a great company attended him, and pressed upon him; and a woman who had had a defluxion of blood twelve years, and who had suffered much from many physicians, and had expended all she possessed, and was not profited, but was even the more afflicted; when she heard of Yeshua, came up behind him in the press of the crowd, and touched the border of his garment; for she said, “If I but touch his garment, I shall live.” And immediately the fountain of her blood dried up; and she felt in her body that she was healed of her plague; and Yeshua at once knew in himself, that power had issued from him; and he turned to the people, and said, “Who touched my clothes?” And when all denied, Simon Cephas and those with him, said to him, “Teacher, crowds press upon you, and say you, who touched me?” And he said, “Someone touched me; for I perceive, that power has issued from me.” And Yeshua looked around, to see who has done this; and the woman, fearing and trembling, when she saw that she had not escaped his notice, for she know what had taken place in her, came trembling, and fell down before him; and in the presence of all the people, she declared for what cause she had touched him, and that she was instantly healed; and Yeshua said to her, “Take courage; your believing has given you life; go in peace; and be you healed of your plague.” And while he was speaking, some domestics of the chief of the synagogue came, one came, and said to him, “Your daughter is dead; why therefore trouble you the teacher?” But Yeshua heard the word they spoke, and said to the father of the maid, “Fear not; only believe, and she will live.” And he suffered no one to go with him, except Simon Cephas, and James, and John the brother of James; and they came to the house of the chief of the synagogue; and Yeshua saw that they were in a tumult, and weeping, and howling; and he suffered none to go in with him, except Simon, and James, and John, and the father and mother of the maid; and he entered in, and all were weeping and wailing over her, and Yeshua said to them, “Why are you in a tumult and weep? Weep not; for the maid is not dead, but is asleep.” And they laughed at him, knowing that she was dead; but Yeshua put them all out; and he took the maids father, and her mother, and those that accompanied him, and entered into where the maid lay; and he took the maids hand, and said to her, “Maiden, arise.” And her breath life returned, and she instantly arose, and walked; for she was twelve years old, and he directed them to give her food; and her parents were astonished with a great astonishment; and he enjoined it upon them much, to tell no one what had occurred; and he directed that they should give her to eat; and Yeshua departed from there and came to his own city, and his disciples attended him; and when the Sabbath came, he began to teach in the synagogue; and many who heard him were astonished, and said, “Where has he obtained these things? And, what wisdom is this which is given to him! And that such mighty works are done by his hands! Is not this the carpenter, the son of Mary, and the brother of James, and of Joses, and of Judas, and of Simon? And are not his sisters here with us?” And they were stumbled in him; and Yeshua said to them, “There is no prophet who is little, except in his own city, and among his kindred, and at home.” And he could not there do even one mighty work, except that he laid his hand on a few sick, and healed them; and he wondered at the defect of their believing. And Yeshua traveled over all the cities and the villages; and he taught in their synagogues, and proclaimed the tidings of the sovereignty, and healing every kind of sickness and disease; and when Yeshua looked on the crowds, he had compassion concerning them; because they were wearied and disperse, like sheep that have no shepherd; and he said to his disciples, “The harvest is great, and the laborers few. Entreat, therefore, the owner of the harvest, that he would send laborers into his harvest.” And Yeshua called his twelve to him, and began to send them forth, two and two; to proclaim the sovereignty of Yahweh, and he gave them authority over unclean spirits, to cast them out, and to heal every kind of disease and sickness. These twelve Yeshua sent forth; and he command them, and said, “Go not in the way of the Gentiles; and enter not the cities of the Samaritans; but, go you rather to the lost sheep of the House of Israel; and as you go, proclaim and say; the sovereignty of Yahweh has approached. Heal you the sick; cleanse the leprous; raise the dead; and cast out unclean spirits. Freely you have received; freely give. Take nothing for the journey; provide not gold, nor silver, nor brass in your purses; nor a wallet for the journey, nor bread; neither have two tunics, nor sandals, nor a staff. For the laborer is worthy of his food; and into whatever city or town you enter, inquire, who in it is worthy; and into whatever house you enter, there abide till you leave the place; and when you enter a house, salute the household; and if the house be worthy, your peace will come upon it; but if it be not worthy, your peace will return upon yourselves; and whoever will not receive you, nor hear your discourses, when you depart from that house or that town, shake off even the dust that is under your feet against them, for a testimony. Truly I say to you, that it will be comfortable for the land of Sodom and Gomorrah in the day of judgment, rather than for that city. Behold, I send you forth as sheep among wolves. Therefore be you sagacious as serpents, and guileless as doves; and beware of men; for they will deliver you over to the tribunals, and will scourge you in their synagogues; and they will bring you before governors and kings, on my account, for a testimony to them, and to the Gentiles; and when they deliver you up, be not anxious how or what you shall speak; for it shall be given you in that hour what to say. For it is not you that speaks, but the power of your Father speaking to you; and brother shall deliver up his brother to death, and a father his son; and children shall rise up against parents, and cause them to die; and you shall be hated by everyone, on account of my name; but he that shall endure to the end, shall have life; and when they persecute you in one city, flee to another; for truly I say to you, you shall not have completed all the cities of the House of Israel, till the son of man shall come. No disciple is better than his teacher; nor a servant, than his master. It is sufficient for the disciple, that he be as his teacher; and the servant, as his master. If they call the master of the house Beelzebub, how much more the children of his family? Therefore, be not afraid of them; for there is nothing covered up that shall not be exposed; nor concealed, that shall not become known. Whatever I say to you in the dark, that speak you in the light; and what you have heard in your ears, proclaim you on the housetops; and be not afraid of them that kill the body, but cannot kill the soul; but be afraid rather of him, who can destroy both soul and body in hell. Are not two sparrows sold for a farthing? Yet one of them does not fall to the ground without your Father. As for you, even the hairs of your head are all numbered. Therefore, be not afraid; you are more important than many sparrows. Wherefore, whoever shall confess me before men, him will I also confess before my Father who is in heaven; but whoever shall deny me before men, him will I also deny before my Father who is in heaven. Think not that I have come to sow quietness in the land. I have not come to sow quietness, but conflict. For I have come to set a man against his father, and a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law; and a man’s foes will be the members of his household. He that loves father or mother more than me, is not worthy of me; and he that does not follow after me, is not worthy of me. He that preserves his life, shall lose it; and he that loses his life for my sake, shall preserve it. He that receives you, receives me; and he that receives me, receives him that sent me. He that receives a prophet in the name of a prophet, shall receive a prophet’s reward; and he that receives a righteous man in the name of a righteous man, shall receive a righteous man’s reward; and whoever shall give one of these little ones to drink a cup of cold water only, in the name of a disciple, truly I say to you, he shall not lose his reward.” And the Apostles went forth and travelled about the villages and cities, and proclaimed that men should repent; and they cast out many unclean spirits, and many of the sick they anointed with oil, and healed them; and healed everywhere.
  15. The Author of Life Everlasting Chapter 3 Henceforth, You Shall Catch Men unto Life And Yeshua left Nazareth, and he went down and dwelt in Capernaum, by the side of the lake, on the confines of Zebulon and Naphthali. From that time began Yeshua to proclaim the tidings, of the sovereignty of Yahweh, and said, “The time is completed, and the sovereignty of Yahweh has approached. Repent you, and believe the tidings.” And as Yeshua walked on the shore of the lake of Galilee, he saw two brothers, Simon called Cephas, and Andrew his brother, who were casting nets into the lake; for they were fishermen; and Yeshua said to them, “Follow me; and I will cause you to become fishers of men.” And immediately, they left their nets, and went after him; and as Yeshua pass on a little from their, he saw two other brothers, James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, in a boat with Zebedee their father, who were mending their nets; and Yeshua called them; and immediately they left Zebedee in the boat, with the hired servants, and went after him; and Yeshua traveled over all Galilee, and he taught in their synagogues, and proclaimed the tidings of the sovereignty; and healed every disease and sickness among the people; and his fame spread through all Syria; and they brought to him all them that were very sick with diverse diseases, and them that were afflicted with pains, and unclean spirits, and lunatics and paralytics; and Yeshua healed them; and there followed Yeshua great crowds from Galilee, and from the Ten Cities, and from Jerusalem, and from Judah, and from beyond the Jordan; and when Yeshua saw the crowds, he ascended a mountain; and when he was seated, his disciples drew near him, and Yeshua opened his mouth, and taught them, and said, “Happy are the poor in the land, for the sovereignty of Yahweh is theirs! Happy are the mourners, for they shall be comforted! Happy are the meek, for they shall inherit the land! Happy are they that hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be satiated! Happy are the merciful, for on them shall be mercies! Happy are the clean in heart, for they shall behold Yahweh! Happy are the cultivators of peace, for they shall be called sons of Yahweh! Happy are they that are persecuted as a result of righteousness, for the sovereignty of Yahweh is theirs! Blessed are you, when they revile you and persecute you, and speak every evil thing against you, falsely, on my account. At that time, rejoice and be glad; for your reward in heaven is great; for so they persecuted the prophets that were before you. You are the salt of the land! But if the salt become insipid, with what shall it be seasoned? It is fit for nothing; but to be thrown out, and be trodden under foot by men. You are the light of the land! A city built upon a hill, cannot be concealed; and they do not light a lamp, and place it under a basket; but upon a light-stand, and it gives light to all that are in the house. Let your light shine before men, that they may see your good works, and may glorify your Father who is in heaven. Do not suppose that I have come to subvert the law or the prophets; I have come not to subvert, but to fulfill; for truly I say to you, that until heaven and earth shall pass away, one iota or one letter shall not pass from the law, until all shall be fulfilled. Therefore, whoever shall break one of these small commands, and shall so inculcate on the children of men, shall be called little in the sovereignty of Yahweh; but everyone that shall do and teach them, shall be called great in the sovereignty of Yahweh; for I say to you, that unless your righteousness shall abound more than that of the Scribes and Pharisees, you shall not enter into the sovereignty of Yahweh. You have heard that it was said to the ancients, you shall not kill; and everyone that kills, is obnoxious to judgment; and everyone that says to his brother, I spit on you, is obnoxious to the Sanhedrin; and everyone that shall say, abnormal, is obnoxious to hell fire. If it should happen therefore, that while you are presenting your offering upon the altar, and right there you remember that your brother has any grievance against you, leave your offering there upon the altar, and first go and make peace with your brother, and then come back and present your offering. Try to get reconciled with your accuser promptly, while you are going on the road with him; for your accuser might surrender you to the judge, and the judge would commit you to the jailer, and you would be cast into the house of prisoners. Truly I say to you, you will not come out from there until you have paid the last farthing. You have heard that it had been said, you shall not commit adultery; but I say to you, that whoever gazes on a woman with concupiscence, at once commits adultery with her in his heart. If therefore, your right eye should cause you to stumble, pluck it out, and cast it from you; because it is better for you, that your one member perish, than that your whole body fall into hell; and if your right hand should cause you to stumble cut if off, and cast it from you; because it is better for you that one of your members perish, than that your whole body hell. It has been said, that if a man will put away his wife, he must write her a bill of divorcement; but I say to you, that whoever puts away his wife, except for the offense of fornication, causes her to commit adultery; and whoever marries a woman who is separated, but not divorced, commits adultery. Again, you have heard that it has been said to the ancients, you shall not swear falsely by the name of Yahweh; for Yahweh will not clear one who swears falsely by his name; but I say to you, swear not at all; not by heaven, for it is the throne of Yahweh; and not by the earth, for it is the footstool under his feet; and likewise not by Jerusalem, for it is the city of a great king. Moreover, you shall not swear by your head for you cannot make one hair in it either black or white; but let your words be, yes, yes; or no, no; for whatever is beyond these is a deception. You have heard that it has been said, eye for eye, tooth for tooth; but I say to you, resist not evil; but if a person smite you on your right cheek, turn to him the other also; and if one is disposed to sue you, and get away your tunic, relinquish to him also your cloak. Whoever compels you to go one mile, go with him two. Whoever demands of you, give to him; and whoever wishes to borrow of you, deny him not; but I say to you, love your enemies; and bless him that curses you; and do good to him that hates you; and pray for them that lead you in bonds, and that persecute you; that you may be children of your Father that is in heaven, who causes his sun to rise upon the good and upon the bad, and sends his rain upon the righteous and upon the unrighteous. For, if you love them that love you, what reward have you? Do not even the tax collectors do this? And if you salute your brethren only, what do you that is not common? Do not even the tax collectors do this? Be you therefore perfect, even as your Father who is in heaven is perfect. Be cautious in your almsgiving, not to perform it before men, so that you may be seen of them, otherwise, you have no reward from your Father who is in heaven. Therefore, when you do alms, do not sound a trumpet before you, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, that they may get praise from men. Truly I say to you, they have gotten their reward; but you, when doing alms, let not your left hand know what your right hand does; that your alms may be in secret; and your Father, who sees in secret, will reward you openly; and when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, who are fond of standing up in the synagogues and at the corners of streets to pray, so that they may be seen by people. Truly I say to you, they have gotten their reward; but as for you, when you pray, enter into your inner chamber and lock your door, and pray to your Father who is in secret; and your Father, who sees in secret, will reward you openly; and when you pray, be not garrulous like the Gentiles; for they expect to be heard for their abundance of words. Therefore, be not like them; for your Father knows what is needful for you, before you ask him. In this manner, therefore, pray you; our Father, who is in heaven, hollowed be your name; your sovereignty come; your will be done; as in heaven, so in the land; give us our needful bread, this day; and forgive us our offenses, as we have forgiven our offenders; and do not let us enter into temptation, but deliver us from evil; for yours is the sovereignty, and the power, and the glory, forever and ever. For, if you forgive men their faults, your Father who is in heaven will also forgive you; but if you shall not forgive men, your Father also forgives not you your faults; and when you fast, be not sad like the hypocrites; for they distort their faces, that they may be seen of men to fast. Truly I say to you, they have gotten their reward; but, as for you, when you fast, wash you your face, and anoint your head; that you may not be seen by men as a faster, but by your Father who is in secret; and your Father who sees in secret, will recompense you. Lay not up for yourselves treasures in the land, where moth and rust spoil, and where thieves dig through and steal; but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where no moth and no rust can spoil, and no thieves dig through nor steal; for where your treasure is, there will your heart also be. The lamp of the body is the eye. If therefore, your eye shall be sound, your whole body will be luminous; but if your eye shall be diseased, your whole body will be dark. If then, the light that is in you be darkness, how great will be your darkness! No man can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will honor the one and neglect the other. You cannot serve Yahweh and mammon. Therefore, I say to you, be not anxious about your life, what you shall eat, and what you shall drink; nor about your body, how you shall clothe yourselves. Is not the life more important than food, and the body than raiment? Look at the birds of the sky; which sow not, and reap not, and gather not into storehouses, but your Father who is in heaven feeds them. Are not you more important than they? And who of you that shall be anxious, can add to his stature a cubit? And about raiment, why are you anxious? Consider the lilies of the desert, in what manner they grow. They toil not; and they spin not. Yet I say to you, that not even Solomon in all his glory, was arrayed like one of them; and if Yahweh so clothe the grass of the field, which exists today, and tomorrow falls into the fireplace, will he not much more clothe you, you small in believing? Therefore, be not anxious; nor say, what shall we eat, or what shall we drink; or wherewith we be clothed? For, all these things the people of the world seek after; and your Father, who is in heaven, knows that all these things are needful to you; but seek you first the sovereignty of Yahweh, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added to you. Therefore be not anxious about the morrow; for the morrow has its own anxieties. Sufficient for the day, is its own evil. Judge not, that you be not judged; for with the judgment that you judge, you shall be judged; and by the measure that you measure, shall it be measured to you; and why observe you the splinter in your brother’s eye, and regard not the beam that is in your own eye? Or how can you say to your brother, allow me to pluck the splinter from your eye; and lo, a beam is in your own eye. You hypocrite, pluck first the beam from your own eye; and then you will see clearly, to pluck the splinter out of your brother’s eye. Give not a Holy thing to dogs; and cast not your pearls before swine; lest they tread them under their feet, and turn and lacerate you. Ask, and it shall be given to you; seek, and you shall find; knock, and it shall be opened to you. For, everyone that asks, receives; and he that seeks, finds; and to him that knocks, it shall be opened; for what man is there among you, of whom if his son ask bread, will he reach him a stone? Or if he ask of him a fish, will he reach him a serpent? If you then, who are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father who is in heaven, give good things to them that ask him? Whatsoever you would that men should do to you; so also do you to them; for this is the law and the prophets. Enter you in by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate, and broad is the road which leads to destruction, and many are those who travel on it. How narrow the gate, and how difficult is the road which leads to life, and few are those who are found on it. Beware of false prophets; who come to you in the garb of sheep, but internally they are rapacious wolves; and from their fruits you shall know them. Do men gather grapes from thorn bushes; or figs from thistles? So every good tree bears good fruits; but a bad tree bears bad fruits. A good tree cannot bear bad fruits; nor can a bad tree bear good fruits. Every tree that bears not good fruits, is cut down, and consigned to the fire. Wherefore, by their fruits you shall know them. Not whoever may say to me, Yeshua, Yeshua, will enter into the sovereignty of Yahweh; but he that does the will of my Father who is in heaven. Many will say to me in that day, Yeshua, Yeshua, have we not prophesied in your name? And in your name cast out unclean spirits? And in your name do many works of power? And then will I declare to them; I never knew you. Depart from me, you doers of evil. Everyone therefore, that hears these my discourses, and does them, will be like to a wise man, one that built his house upon a rock; and the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew; and they rushed upon that house; and it fell not, for its foundations were laid upon a rock; and everyone that hears these my discourses, and does them not, will be like a foolish man that built his house upon sand; and the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew; and they rushed upon that house, and it fell; and great was the ruin of it.” And so it was, that when Yeshua had ended these discourses, the crowds were astonished at his teaching; for he taught them as one having authority; and not as their Scribes and Pharisees. And as Yeshua descended from the mountain, great crowds gathered around him; and behold, a leper came and did homage to him, and said, “Sir, if you wish, you can make me clean.” And Yeshua stretched forth his hand, touched him, and said, “I do wish it; be you clean.” And immediately his leprosy was cleansed; and Yeshua said to him, “See, you tell no man; but go, show yourself to the priests, and present an offering as Moses enjoined for a testimony to them.” And when Yeshua had entered into Capernaum, a centurion came to him, and besought him, and said, “Sir, my child lies at home, paralyzed and badly afflicted.” Yeshua said to him, “I will come and heal him.” The centurion replied, and said, “Sir, I am not worthy that you should come under my roof; but speak the word only, and my child will be healed; for I also am a man under authority, and there are soldiers under my hands, and I say to this one, go, and he goes; and to another, come, and he comes; and to my servant, do this thing and he does it.” And when Yeshua heard this, he admired it; and he said to those walking with him, “Truly I say to you, I have not found believing like this even in Israel; and I say to you, that many shall come from the East, and from the West, and shall recline with Abraham and Isaac and Jacob, in the sovereignty of Yahweh; but the sons of the kingdom shall go forth into the outer darkness. There will be the weeping and the grinding of the teeth.” And Yeshua said to the centurion, “Go; be it to you as you have believed.” And his child was healed in that same hour; and Yeshua immediately taught on the Sabbath, in their synagogues; and they were astonished at his teachings, for he taught them, as having authority, and not as their Scribes; and in their synagogue was a man, in whom was an unclean spirit; and it cried out, with a loud voice, and said, “What have I to do with you? Let me alone; what have I to do with you, Yeshua? Have you come to destroy me? I know you, who you are, the Holy one of Yahweh.” And Yeshua rebuked it, and said, “Shut your mouth; and come out of him.” And the unclean spirit threw him down in the midst, and cried with a loud voice; and came out of him, having not harmed him at all; and they were all amazed, and wonder seized everyone, and inquired one of another, and said, “What a word is this! What new teaching is this? For, with authority and power, he commands the unclean spirits, and they obey him, and they come out.” And Yeshua’s fame went out into all the surrounding region; and Yeshua retired from the synagogue, and he entered into the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John; and the mother-in-law of Simon was lying sick, afflicted with a severe fever; and they besought Yeshua in her behalf; and he came, and he stood over her, and took her hand, and raised her up, and rebuked the fever; and immediately the fever left her; and immediately she arose and ministered to them; and when it was evening, at the setting of the sun, all those that had sick persons, afflicted with divers diseases, they brought many possessed with unclean spirits, and all the city was collected at the door, and he laid his hand on every one of them, and healed them; and he cast out may unclean spirits by a word; crying out and saying, “You are the Messiah, the son of Yahweh.” And Yeshua rebuked them, and suffered them not to say, that they knew him to be the Messiah; and in the morning, Yeshua rose much before the others, and retired to a solitary place, and there prayed; and Simon and his associates sought for him; and when they found him, they said to him, “Everybody is seeking for you.” And Yeshua said to them, “Lets go into the adjacent villages and towns; for there also I will preach, because therefore was I sent.” And the crowds sought him, and went out to him, and held him fast, that he might not retire from them; and Yeshua said to them, “It behooves me to announce the sovereignty of Yahweh to other cities also; for therefore was I sent.” And Yeshua preached in all their synagogues, in all Galilee, and cast out unclean spirits. And it occurred, that a crowd gathered about Yeshua, to hear the word of Yahweh; and Yeshua was standing by the side of the lake of Gennesaret, and he saw two boats standing near the lake, and the fishermen were gone out of them, and were washing their nets; and one of them belonged to Simon Cephas; and Yeshua entered and sat in it; and he told them to draw off a little from the shore, into the lake; and he seated himself, and taught the people from the boat; and when he ceased from speaking, he said to Simon, “Launch out into the deep, and cast your net for a catch.” Simon answered, saying to him, “Teacher, all the night we have toiled, and have caught nothing; but, at your bidding, I will cast the net.” And when they had done so, they inclosed very many fishes, so that the net was rent; and they made signs to their associates, in the other boat, to come and help them; and when they came, they filled both the boats so that they were near to sinking; and when Simon Cephas saw it, he fell before the feet of Yeshua, and said to him, “I beseech you, my teacher, that you leave me, for I am a sinful man.” For astonishment had seized him, and all that were with him, at the catch of fishes which they had caught; and in like manner also James and John, the sons of Zebedee, who were partners of Simon; but Yeshua said, “Fear you not; henceforth, you shall catch men unto life.” And they brought the boats to the land; and they left all and followed him; and when Yeshua was in one of the cities, a man came all full of leprosy and saw Yeshua, he fell upon his face at his feet, and besought him, saying, “Sir, if you will, you can cleanse me.” And Yeshua had compassion on him, and stretched out his hand, and touched him, and said to him, “I will it; be you clean.” And in that hour, his leprosy departed from him, and he became clean; and Yeshua charged him, and sent him away, and Yeshua said to him, “See that you speak to no one; but go and show yourself to the priests, and make an offering on account of your cleansing, as Moses has commanded, for a testimony to them.” And he, as he went out, began to proclaim it much, and to divulge the matter; and Yeshua’s fame spread abroad still more; and much people assembled to hear him, and to be healed of their diseases; so that Yeshua could not openly go into the city, but was without, in desert places, and prayed; and they came to him from every quarter; and when Yeshua saw great crowds around him, he ordered that they should go to the site shore; and a Scribe came and said to him, “Teacher, I will follow you to the place wherever you go” Yeshua said to him, “For foxes there are holes, and for the birds of the sky there are nests; but for the son of man, there is not where he may recline his head.” And another of his disciples said to him, “Teacher, suffer me first to go and bury my father.” But Yeshua said to him, “Follow you me, and leave the dead, to bury their dead.” And when Yeshua entered the boat, his disciples embarked with him; and lo, a great commotion arose in the lake, so that the boat was covered by the waves; but Yeshua was asleep; and his disciples came to awake him, saying to him, “Teacher, deliver us; we are perishing!” Then he arose, and rebuked the wind and the lake; and there was great tranquillity; and the men were amazed, and they said, “What a man is this, to whom the winds and the lake are obedient!” And when Yeshua arrived at the farther shore, in the country of the Gadarenes, there met him two possessed with unclean spirits, who came out from the sepulchers, very furious, so that no one could pass that way; and they cried out, and said, “What have we to do with you? Yeshua, you son of Yahweh. Have you come here before the time to torment us?” And at a distance from them there was a herd of many swine feeding; and the unclean spirits entreated of Yeshua, and said, “If you cast us out, suffer us to go into the herd of swine.” And Yeshua said to them, “Go.” And immediately they came out, and entered into the swine; and that whole herd ran straight over the cliff and plunged into the lake, and perished in the water; and the herdsmen fled, and entered the city, and related all that had occurred, and concerning them that were possessed with unclean spirits; and all the city came out to meet Yeshua; and when they saw him, they besought him to depart from their coasts; and he entered the boat, and passed over; and Yeshua again entered into Capernaum. And it occurred, on one of the days when Yeshua was teaching; and when they heard that he was in the house, many were assembled, so that the house could not contain them, not even before the door. Pharisees and doctors of the law were sitting by, who had come from all the villages of Galilee, and of Judah, and Jerusalem; and the power of Yahweh was present to heal them; and there came to him, a paralytic borne between four persons; and when they could not thus introduce him, because of the crowd of the people, they ascended to the roof, and removed the covering of the place where Yeshua was; and let down the quilt on which the paralytic lay, from the covering, into the midst, before Yeshua; and when Yeshua saw their believing, he said to the paralytic, “Man, take courage; your sins are forgiven you.” And the Scribes and the Pharisees began to reason in their minds, and to say, “This man blasphemes. Who is this that speaks blasphemy? Who can forgive sins, except Yahweh only?” But Yeshua knew that they thus reasoned in themselves; and he said to them, “What think you; why do you think evil things, why reason you this in your heart? For, which is the easier, to say, your sins are forgiven you; or to say, arise, and walk? But that you may know that the son of man has authority in Israel to forgive sins.” Yeshua said to the paralytic, “Arise, take up your quilt, and go to your home.” And instantly, he rose up before their eyes, and took up his quilt, and departed in presence of them all, and went home, glorifying Yahweh; and when the crowd saw it, astonishment seized everyone; and they praised Yahweh, who had given authority like this to men; and they were struck with awe, and said, “We have seen wonders today, we never saw the like.” And Yeshua went again to the lake; and all the crowd came to him, and he taught them; and as he passed along, he saw a man sitting among the tax collectors at the customhouse, whose name was Matthew, the son of Alpheus, and Yeshua said to him, “Come after me, follow me.” And he left everything, and arose, and went after Yeshua; and it was so, Matthew made a great entertainment for him at his house; and there was a numerous company of tax collectors and sinners that reclined with Yeshua and with his disciples; for they were many, and they followed him; and when the Scribes and Pharisees saw that he ate with tax collectors and with sinners, they murmured, and said to his disciples, “Why does your teacher and you eat and drink with tax collectors and sinners?” And as Yeshua heard it, he said to them, “A physician is not sought after for the healthy, but those laboring under disease. Go and learn what that is; for Yahweh desires goodness, not sacrifice! For I did not come to call the righteous, but the sinful, to repentance.” And the disciples of John and of the Pharisees were fasters; and they came, and saying to Yeshua, “Why are the disciples of John and the Pharisees fast much, and your disciples fast not?” And the Scribes and Pharisees said to him, “Why do the disciples of John fast often, and pray, and also those of the Pharisees, but yours eat and drink?” Yeshua said to them, “Can the guests of the nuptial chamber fast so long as the bridegroom is with them? No. But the days will come, when the bridegroom will be taken from them, and then they will fast, in those days.” And Yeshua spoke a parable to them, “No one inserts a piece of new cloth on an old garment; lest that which fills up, tear from that garment, and the rent become greater; and no one puts new wine into old sacks; otherwise, the new wine will burst the sacks, and the wine will run out, and the sacks be ruin; but they put new wine into new sacks, and both are preserved; and no one drinks old wine, and immediately calls for new; for he saids, the old is the delicious.” And while he was thus discoursing with them, a ruler came, drew near and did homage to Yeshua, and said, “My daughter is already dead, but come lay your hand upon her, and she will live.” And Yeshua rose up, and his disciples; and they followed him; and behold, a woman whose blood had flowed fourteen years, came up behind him, and touched the extremity of his robe; for she had said in her mind, “If I but touch his garment, I shall be healed.” And Yeshua turned himself, looked at her, and said to her, “Take courage; your believing has given you life.” And the woman was healed from that very hour; and Yeshua came to the house of the ruler; and he saw there pipers, and crowds making out cry; and he said to them, “That is enough; for the little girl is not dead, but sleeps.” And they scoffed at him; but when he had put the people out, he entered in, and took her by the hand, and the little girl rose up; and the fame of this thing spread in all that land. And when Yeshua had passed from there, two blind men followed after him, and said, “Have mercy on us, you son of David!” And when he had entered a house, those blind men approached him, and Yeshua said to them, “Believe you that I am able to do this?” They said to him, “Yes, Yeshua.” Then Yeshua touched their eyes, and said, “As you have believed, so shall it be to you.” And forthwith their eyes were opened; and Yeshua charged them, and said, “See, that no man know of it.” But they went out and spread the fame of it in all that land; and as Yeshua went out, they brought to him a dumb man in whom was an unclean spirit; and as soon as he was restored, the dumb man spoke, and the people were amazed, and said, “Never was it so seen in Israel!” But the Pharisees said, “It is by the Prince of unclean spirits, he casts out unclean spirits; and on a Sabbath it occurred, as Yeshua walked among the tilled grounds, that his disciples plucked ears, and rubbed them in their hands and ate; and some of the Pharisees said to the disciples, “Why do you that, which it is not lawful to do on the Sabbath?” And the Pharisees said to Yeshua, “See, how on the Sabbath, they do that which is not lawful?” Yeshua replied, saying to them, “Have you never read what David did, when he had need and was hungry, he and those with him? How he entered into the House of Yahweh, when Abiathar was high priest, and took and ate the bread of Yahweh’s table, and gave it to those that were with him, which it was not lawful, except for the priests only, to eat? The Sabbath was made on man’s account, and not man for the sake of the Sabbath; and on another Sabbath, Yeshua entered into a synagogue and taught; and there was a man there whose right hand was withered; and the Scribes and Pharisees watch him, that if he should heal on the Sabbath, they might be able to accuse him; and as Yeshua knew their thoughts, he said to the man with a withered hand, “Rise and come into the midst of the congregation.” And when he came and stood there, Yeshua said to them, “I ask you, what is it lawful to do on the Sabbath? That which is good? Or, that which is evil? To save life or to destroy it?” But they were silent; and he looked on them with indignation, being grieved with the hardness of their heart; and he said to the man, “Stretch forth your hand.” And he stretched out his hand, and it was restored like the other; and they were filled with envy; and they conferred one with another, what they should do to Yeshua; and the Pharisees went out that very hour, with the domestics of Herod, and held a consultation against him, how they might destroy him. So Yeshua went to the lake with his disciples; and many people joined him from Galilee, and from Judah, and from Jerusalem, and from Idumaea, and from beyond Jordan, and from Tyre, and from Sidon; great crowds, when they heard all that Yeshua did, came to him; and Yeshua told his disciples to bring him a boat on account of the crowds, lest they should crowd upon him, for he was healing so many that others rushed toward him, so as to touch him; and they who were afflicted with unclean spirits, when they saw him, fell down and cried out, and said, “You are the son of Yahweh.” And Yeshua charged them much, not to make him known.
  16. Hi Roy, I am the foolishness of the world, we have talk on the phone, a many moon ago; you knew me as appleseed, those were nutty days. In that Chapter 2 posting, I took out John 3:16 because it was added, research like that, everything that the influences of Peter the Great started, I took out of the text, that is funny stuff, and yet I am not laughing. Crazy research, and yet their is nothing crazy about it. Ya, I would say I am a dreamer of dreams, can't get much foolisher than that. Will get back to you on that subject matter. Thanks Roy.
  17. Well said cman, The Way stopped researching, but in pfal we learned about a text, in that text is buried a research done by Bullinger, about a new nature. The Way have their copy rights, but they are old news, it would be so cool to have what The Way should be teaching copy righted here on the grease spot. I show Bullingers research in the author of life everlasting, that work is 85,000 words long, all for us to reason this stuff out; I was told when I got in The Way, if you find something new, we will change, and it will get corrected. Let's have some fun with The Way, they cannot copy right our research, the research that should have been doing, in 1985 I showed them some research I did, but they were in fear of change; their loss, our fun. That would be so funny, their morning cup of reality, what they should be teaching is here, no money for you Way. I ask you please to lesson to two course's, they are a free down from Yale, Christine Hayes and Dale B. Martin, Christine gets in to the stuff that is going to cause The Way a world of hurt, because they stopped researching, they stopped learning, lesson to what this woman has to say, mind bending stuff; The Way would have to rewrite their books to teach this stuff, hey, that would be to funny, if us spotters forced The Way to rewrite their books. PFAL taught us how to learn, to learn; they may have the copy rights, but we have the learnings.
  18. Hi Roy, Yea, Todd got my mind ablaze with that word conceptualize, a cool course by Dale B. Martin, it is a free down from Yale, I do not know the link, but this guy gets into some deep stuff; he talk about Peter the Great and the influences he had on history, all the conceptualize spun from that influence, one could write a book. I got to get back to you on that other subject matter. Thanks Roy, cool learnings.
  19. One then, as a result of the many influenced conceptualize of faith, can indeed come to these conclusions. Sir what faith are you; the conceptualize of faith have formed new conceptualizlites, so the list would go on and on and on, kinda like talking to the three in oners.
  20. Cool word, "conceptualize" form a concept or idea of (something) If faith is our capacity to form a concept or idea of (something), I look at your list and I kinda see where you are coming from. What if one use Truth as their capacity to form a concept or idea of something; I wonder how that list would look like; but what is Truth, how would that play a roll on ones stages in growth?
  21. Hi Roy, Satan has been fooling man with the magic of concepts for years, yes their is a difference, Truth is the difference! I Said you were born anew, not born again.
  22. Year2027, What you wrote is a concept, you being an Apostle, what can I learn from what you wrote.
  23. Faith, a concept of man! How does one get born anew? New nature! When we came out of our mother’s womb, we were born with that old nature; thanks to Adam and Eve. It is ones faithfulness in developing their new nature, because we are born anew with it. That is why our new nature produces fruit; love, joy, peace, etc., as ones develops their sense's to discern, both good and evil. Faith does nothing! Take it by faith, but as one develops their new nature, one starts to trust, and have confident with himself. Remember when Abraham crossed the desert, to go to the land that was promised him to inherit; did he cross that desert because of his faith, or because of his believing. Did you get born anew because of your faith, or because of your believing? As one develops their new nature, they have such a confidantes and trust, it manifest’s itself’s out as a manifestation of believing, not faith. As one grows in what they were born anew with, new nature, one feeds off that root system of the Olive tree in Roman’s; were we grafted in because of faith, or because of believing? Faith, a concept of man; then man made up concepts, to that concept.
  24. The Author of Life Everlasting Chapter 2 In New Nature and In Truth Now, in the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius Caesar, during the Governorship of Pontius Pilate in Judah, while Herod was Tetrarch in Galilee, and Philip his brother Tetrarch in Ituraea and in the region of Trachonitis, and Lysanius Tetrarch of Abilene, during the high priesthood of Annas and of Caiaphas; the word of Yahweh came to John, the son of Zachariah, in the wilderness; and in those days came John the Baptizer; and he proclaimed in the desert of Judah, and said, “Repent; the sovereignty of Yahweh has approached.” And he came into all the wilderness region about the Jordan, John baptized and proclaimed the baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins; and their went out to him all the region of Judah, and all the people of Jerusalem; and he baptized them in the River Jordan; and as to this John, he was clad in raiment of camel’s hair; and was girded with a cincture of skin about his loins; and his food was locusts and wild honey; and he said to the people, who came to him to be baptized, “You offspring of scorpions, who has instructed you to flee from the anger which is coming? Bring forth, therefore, fruits which are worthy of repentance; and do not begin to say within yourselves, We have Abraham as our father; for I say to you, that Yahweh can, from these stones, raise up sons to Abraham; and lo, the ax is already placed at the root of the trees; therefore, every tree which bears not good fruits, will be cut down, and cast into the fire.” And the people asked him, and said, “What, then, shall we do?” He answered, saying to them, “Whoever has two tunics, let him give one to him that has none; and whoever has food, let him do the same.” And tax collectors also came to be baptized; and they said to him, “Teacher, what shall we do?” And he said to them, “Exact no more than you are require to exact.” And those serving in war inquired of him, and said, “And what shall we do?” And he said to them, “Be insolent to no one, and oppress no one, and let your wages satisfy you.” And while the people were thinking of John, and all pondered in their heart, perhaps he is the Messiah; and he proclaimed, and said, “Behold, after me comes one more powerful than I, of whom I am not worthy to stoop and untie the fastenings of his sandals. I have baptized you with water; but he will baptized you with power, yea, the powerful power of Yahweh and with fire. He holds his winnowing shovel in his hand, and he will make clean his threshing floor; and the wheat he gathers into his garners and the chaff he will burn with fire not extinguished; and many other things also, he taught and proclaimed to the people; but Herod the Tetrarch, because he was reproved by John, on account of Herodias the wife of his brother Philip, and as a result of all the evil things he had done, added this also to them all, that he shut up John in prison. Then went out to John Jerusalem, and all Judah, and all the country about the Jordan; and they were baptized by John in the River Jordan; but when he saw a great many of the Pharisees and Sadducees, who were coming to be baptized, he said to them, “O offspring of scorpions, who has taught you to flee from the anger which is to come? Bring forth the fruits therefore, that accord with repentance; and do not think and say within yourselves, that Abraham is our father; for I say to you, that Yahweh is able of these stones to raise up children to Abraham; and lo, the ax is already placed at the root of the trees; therefore, every tree which bears not good fruits, shall be cut down, and cast into the fire. I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance; but he that comes after me is more powerful than I; whose sandals I am not worthy to carry. He will baptize you with power, yea, the powerful power of Yahweh and with fire. His winnowing shovel is in his hand; and he will make clean his threshing-floor. The wheat he will gather into his storehouse; and the chaff he will burn with fire not extinguished.” And it occurred, in those days, that Yeshua came from Nazareth in Galilee to the Jordan unto John, to be baptized by him; but John refused him; and said, “I need to be baptized by you, and yet have you come to me?” And Yeshua answered, saying to him, “Allow it now, for this is necessary for us to fulfill all righteousness.” Then he permitted him; and when Yeshua was baptized, he went up immediately from the water; and he saw the sky cleft; and he saw power, yea, the powerful power of Yahweh descending like a dove, and it came upon him; and lo, a voice from the sky, which said, “This is my beloved son, in whom I have delight.” And it occurred, when all the people were baptized, that Yeshua also was baptized; and as he prayed, the sky cleft; and power from on high descended upon him, in the bodily likeness of a dove, and there was a voice from the sky, which said, “You are my beloved son, in whom I have delight.” And Yeshua was about thirty years old; and Yeshua, having the fullness of power, yea, the powerful power of Yahweh upon him, returned from the Jordan. Than was Yeshua led by Yahweh into the wilderness forty days, to be tempted by Satan; and during those days, he ate nothing; and he was with the wild beasts; and when he had completed them, he was at last hungry; and Satan said to him, “If you are the son of Yahweh, command this stone to become bread.” Yeshua replied, saying to him, “It is written, that man does not live on bread alone, but that man may live on anything that Yahweh decrees.” And Satan conducted him to a high mountain, and showed him all the kingdoms of the land, in a little time; and Satan said to him, “To you will I give all this dominion, and the glory of it, which is committed to me, and to whom I please, I give it; if therefore, you will worship before me, the whole shall be yours.” But Yeshua replied, saying to him, “It is written, Revere only Yahweh, and worship him alone, to him shall you hold fast, and swear only by his name.” And he brought him to Jerusalem, and set him on a pinnacle of the Temple, and said to him, “If you are the son of Yahweh, cast yourself down from here, for it is written, He will give his angels charge over you, to keep you; and in their arms will they sustain you, lest you strike your foot against a stone.” And Yeshua replied, saying to him, “It is said, Do not try Yahweh.” And when Satan had finished all his temptations, he departed from him for a time; and Satan came, and said to Yeshua, “If you are the son of Yahweh, command these stones to become bread.” But Yeshua replied, and said, “It is written, That man does not live on bread along, but that man may live on anything that Yahweh decrees.” Then Satan took him to the Holy City, and set him on a pinnacle of the Temple, and said to him, “If you are the son of Yahweh, cast yourself down; for it is written, That he will give his angles charge of you, and in their hands will they sustain you, lest you strike your foot against a stone.” Yeshua said to him, “It is moreover written, Do not try Yahweh.” Then Satan took him to a mountain that was very high, and showed him all the kingdoms of the world, and their glory; and said to him, “All these will I give you, if you will fall down and worship me.” Then Yeshua said to him, “Begone, Satan; for it is written, Revere only Yahweh, and worship him alone, to him shall you hold fast, and swear only by his name.” Then Satan left Yeshua; and lo, angels came, and ministered to him. John testified of Yeshua, and cried, and said, “This is he, of whom I said, that he comes after me, and is before me, and of his plenitude we have all received, grace and truth; for the law was given by the hand of Moses; but truth and grace came into reality by the hand of Yeshua the Messiah.” And this is the testimony of John, when the Israelites sent to him priests and levites, to ask him, “Who are you?” And he confessed, and denied not, but confessed, “I am not the Messiah.” And they ask him again, “Who then? Are you Elijah?” And he said, “I am not.” “Are you a prophet?” And he said, “No.” And they said to him, “Who are you? That we may a answer to them that sent us. What say you of yourself?” And they who were sent, were of the Pharisees; and they asked him, and said to him, “Why then baptize you, if you are not the Messiah, nor Elijah, nor a prophet” John answered, saying to them, “I baptize with water; but among you stands one, whom you do not know. He it is that comes after me, and is before me, the one, even the strings of whose sandals I am not worthy to until.” These things occurred in Bethany, where John was baptizing. The day after, John saw Yeshua coming towards him, and said, “Behold, the lamb of Yahweh, that bears the sin of Israel. This is he of whom I said, After me comes a man, who is before me, and I knew him not; but that he might be known to Israel, therefore, am I come baptizing with water; and I saw power, yea, the powerful power of Yahweh descend from the sky, as a dove, and it rested upon him; and I did not know him; but Yahweh, who sent me to baptize with water said to me, The one upon whom you see power from on high descending and resting, he is the one who will baptize with power, yea, the powerful power of Yahweh; and I saw; and I testify, that this is the son of Yahweh.” And the next day, John was standing with two of his disciples; and he looked upon Yeshua as he walked, and said, “Behold, the lamb of Yahweh!” And when he said it, two of his disciples heard it; and they went after Yeshua; and Yeshua turned, and saw them coming after him, and he said to them, “What seek you?” They said to him, “Teacher, where do you stay?” He said to them, “Come, and see.” And they came and saw where he lodged; and they were with him that day, for it was about the tenth hour; and one of those who heard John, and went after Yeshua, was Andrew, the brother of Simon. He first saw Simon his brother, and said to him, “We have found the Messiah.” And he brought him to Yeshua, and Yeshua looked upon him, and said, “You are Simon the son of Jona; you shall be called Cephas.” The next day, Yeshua was disposed to depart for Galilee; and he found Philip, and said to him, “Come after me.” And Philip was of Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Simon; and Philip found Nathaniel, and said to him, “We have found him, of whom Moses wrote in the law, and the prophets, Yeshua the son of Joseph, who is of Nazareth.” Nathaniel said to him, “Can there be any good thing from Nazareth?” Philip said to him, “Come, and see.” And Yeshua saw Nathaniel coming towards him, and said of him, “Behold, a real Israelite, in whom is no deceit.” Nathaniel said to him, “Whence know you me?” Yeshua said to him, “Before Philip called you, when you were under the fig tree, I saw you.” Nathaniel answered, saying to him, “Teacher, you are the son of Yahweh; you are the King of Israel.” Yeshua said to him, “Because I said to you, that I saw you under the fig tree, do you believe? You will see greater things than these. Truly I say to you, that here after you will see heaven opened, and the angels of Yahweh ascending and descending unto the son of man.” And on the third day there was a feast in Cana, a city of Galilee; and the mother of Yeshua was there; and also Yeshua and his disciples were invited to the feast; and the wine fell short, and his mother said to Yeshua, “They have no wine.” Yeshua said to her, “What is it to me and to you? Not yet has my hour come.” His mother said to the helpers, “Whatever he tells you, do it.” And there were there six water-pots of stone, set for the purification of the Israelites, which could hold several gallons each. Yeshua said to them, “Fill those water-pots with water.” And they filled them to the top. Then Yeshua said to them, “Draw now, and carry to the master of the feast.” And they carried; and when the master of the feast tasted the water that had become wine, and did not know whence it came; although the helpers knew, as they had filled the pots with water. Then the master of the feast called the bridegroom, and said to him, “Every man first brings forward the good wine, and when they are satiated, then that which is inferior; but you have kept the good wine till now.” And Yeshua’s disciples believed in him. Afterwards Yeshua went down to Capernaum, he and his mother, and his brothers, and his disciples; and they were there a few days; and the Passover of the Israelites drew near; and Yeshua went up to Jerusalem; and he found in the temple courts those who sold beeves, and sheep, and doves, and the moneychangers sitting there; and he made himself a whip from a cord, and turned them all out of the temple courts, and the sheep, and the beeves, and the moneychangers; and he poured out their money, and overset their tables; and he said to them that sold doves, “Take away these things; and make not my Father’s house, a house of trading.” But the Israelites replied, saying to him, “What sign show you to us, since you do these things?” Yeshua answered, saying to them, “Tear down this temple, and in three days it will raise up.” The Israelites said to him, “It took forty-six years to build this temple, and will you raise it up in three days?” And while Yeshua was in Jerusalem, at the feast of the Passover, many believed in him, because they saw the miracles which he did; and there was a man of the Pharisees there, whose name was Nicodemus, a ruler of the Israelites; and he came to Yeshua by night, and said to him, “Teacher, we know that you are a teacher sent from Yahweh; for no man can do these miracles that you are doing, unless Yahweh is with him.” Yeshua replied, saying to him, “Truly I say to you, that, unless a man be born anew, he cannot behold the sovereignty of Yahweh.” Nicodemus said to him, “How can an old man be born? Can he enter a second time into his mother’s womb, and be born?” Yeshua replied, saying to him, “Truly I say to you, that, unless a man be born of water and new nature, he cannot enter the sovereignty of Yahweh. That which is born of the flesh, is flesh; and that which is born of new nature, is new nature. Be not surprised that I said to you, you must be born of new nature.” Nicodemus answered, saying to him, “How can these things be?” Yeshua answered, saying to him, “Are you a teacher of Israel, and yet you do not understand these things?” After these things, came Yeshua and his disciples into the land of Judah; and there he abode with them, and baptized. John also was baptizing at the spring of Aenon, which is near to Shalim, because there was much water there; and the people came, and were baptized; for John was not yet cast into prison; and one of John’s disciples and an Israelite had disputed respecting purification; and they came to John, and said to him, “Teacher, he who was with you at the Jordan crossing, and of whom you gave testimony, lo, he also is baptizing; and a great many are coming him.” John answered, saying to them, “A man cannot take anything by his own choice, unless it be given him from heaven. You yourselves bear me witness that I said, I am not the Messiah. He who has a bride is the bridegroom; and the best man of the bridegroom is he who stands up and listens to him, and rejoices greatly because of the bridegroom’s voice; this my joy, therefore, lo, it is full. To him must be increase, and to me decrease.” When Yeshua was aware, that the Pharisees had heard; that he made many disciples, and baptized more than John. Yet, Yeshua himself did not baptize, but his disciples; and he left Judah, and went again into Galilee; and in going, he had occasion to pass through the midst of the Samaritans; and he came to a city of the Samaritans called Sychar, near the field which Jacob gave to Joseph; and Jacob’s well of water was there; and Yeshua was weary with the toil of traveling, and seated himself by the well; and it was at the sixth hour; and a woman from Samaria came to draw water; and Yeshua said to her, “Give me water to drink.” And his disciples had gone to the city, to buy themselves food. The Samaritan woman said to him, “How do you, an Israelite, ask drink of me, who am a Samaritan woman? For the Israelites have no familiarity with Samaritans.” Yeshua replied, saying to her, “If you only knew the gift of Yahweh, and who is the man who said to you, Give me to drink, you would have asked him, and he would have given you living water?” The woman said to him, “Sir, you have no leather bucket, and no deep well; where do you get the living water? Are you greater than our father Jacob, who gave us this well, and he himself drank from it, and his sons, and his sheep?” Yeshua replied, saying to her, “Everyone who drinks of this water will thirst again; but whoever drinks of the water which I give him, shall never thirst; but the same water, which I shall give him, will be in him a well of water, springing up unto life eternal.” The woman said to him, “Sir, give me of this water, that I may not thirst again, and need not come and draw from here.” Yeshua said to her, “Go, call your husband, and come here.” She said to him, “I have no husband.” Yeshua said to her, “You have well said, I have no husband; for you have had five husbands, and he whom you now have, is not your husband; in this you did speak truly.” The woman said to him, “Sir, I perceive you are a prophet. Our fathers worshipped in this mountain; but the Israelites say, That in Jerusalem is the place where it is proper to worship.” Yeshua said to her, “Woman, believe me, the hour comes, when neither in this mountain, nor in Jerusalem, you will worship the Father. You worship, you know not what; but we worship what we know; for deliverance is from the Israelites; but the hour comes, and now is, when the true worshippers will worship the Father in new nature and in truth; for the Father desires worshippers such as these; for Yahweh is spirit; and they that worship him, must worship in new nature and in truth.” The woman said to him, “I know that the Messiah will come; and when he comes, he will teach us everything.” Yeshua said to her, “I, who talk with you, am he.” And while Yeshua was speaking, his disciples came; and they wondered that he would converse with the woman; yet no one said, “What seek you?” or, “Why, talk you with her?” And the woman left her water-pot, and went to the city, and said to the people, “Come, see a man that told me everything I ever did; is not this the Messiah?” And the people went out of the city, and came to Yeshua. In the mean time, Yeshua’s disciples entreated him, and said to him, “Teacher, eat.” But Yeshua said to them, “I have food to eat, of which you are ignorant.” The disciples said among themselves, “Has anyone brought him something to eat?” Yeshua said to them, “My food is to do the pleasure of him that sent me, and to accomplish his work. Do not say, that after four months comes the harvest? Behold, I say to you, and lift up your eyes, and look upon the grounds, that they are white, and have long been ready for the harvest; and he that reaps, receives wages, and gathers fruits unto life eternal; and the sower and the reaper equally rejoice, for in this, is the proverb true, that one is the sower and another the reaper. I send you to reap that, on which you labored not; for others toiled, and you are entering into their labor.” And many Samaritans of that city believed in Yeshua, because of the discourse of the woman, who testified, “He told me all that I ever did.” And when these Samaritans come to Yeshua, they requested him to tarry with them; and Yeshua remained with them two days; and many believed in Yeshua, because of his discourse; and they said to the woman, “Henceforth, we believe in him, not on account of your word; for we have heard him ourselves, and we know that he truly is the Messiah, the deliverer of Israel.” And after two days, Yeshua departed from there and went into Galilee; for Yeshua himself testified, that a prophet is not honored in his own city; and when he came to Galilee, the Galileans received him, having seen all the wonders Yeshua did in Jerusalem at the feast, for they too had gone to the feast; and Yeshua came again to Cana of Galilee, where he made the water wine; and there was at Capernaum a king’s servant, whose son was sick. He heard that Yeshua had come from Judah to Galilee; and he went to Yeshua, and besought him, that he would come down and heal his son; for he was near dying. Yeshua said to him, “Unless you see miracles and wonders, you will not believe.” The king’s servant said to him, “Sir, come down, before the boy dies.” Yeshua said to him, “Go, your son lives.” And the man believed the word which Yeshua spake to him, and went away; and as he was going down, his servants met him, and informed him, saying to him, “Your son lives.” And he asked them, at what time he recovered; and they said to him, “Yesterday, at the seventh hour the fever left him.” And his father knew, that it was at that hour in which Yeshua said to him, “Your son lives.” And he believed, and all his house. After these things there was a feast of the Israelites, and Yeshua went up to Jerusalem; and there was there in Jerusalem a certain place of purification, which was called Bethesda; and there were in it five porches; and in them were laid a great crowd of the sick, and the blind, and the lame, and the withered, waiting for the moving of the water; for an angel, from time to time, descended into the purification pool, and moved the water; and whoever first went in, after the moving of the water, was cured of whatever disease he had; and a man was there, who had been diseased thirty and eight years. Yeshua saw this man lying down, and Yahweh told Yeshua that his disease had been a long time upon him, so Yeshua said to him, “Desire you to be healed?” And the sick man answered, saying, “Yes, sir; but I have no one who, when the water is moved, will put me into the purification pool; but while I am coming, another one goes in before me.” Yeshua said to him, “Arise, take up your quilt, and walk.” And immediately the man was healed; and he arose, took up his quilt, and walked; and it was the Sabbath day; and the Israelites said to him that was healed, “It is the Sabbath; it is not lawful for you to bear your quilt.” But he answered, saying to them, “He that made me whole, he said to me, Take up your quilt and walk.” And they asked him, “Who is the man that said to you, Take up your quilt and walk?” But the man that was healed, knew not who it was; for Yeshua had slid away, in the great crowd that was in the place. After a time, Yeshua found him in the temple courts, and said to him, “Lo, you are healed; sin not again, lest something worse come upon you than before.” And the man went, and told the Israelites, that it was Yeshua who had cured him; and for this cause the Israelites began to persecute Yeshua, and sought to kill him; because he had done these things on the Sabbath; but Yeshua said to them, “My Father works until now, and I work.” And for this the Israelites sought the more to kill him not only because he had broken the Sabbath, but because he had said of Yahweh, that he was his Father, and had equalled himself with Yahweh; and Yeshua answered, saying to them, “Truly I say to you, the son can do nothing, of his own pleasure, but what he sees the Father do; for what things the Father does, these in like manner does the son; for the Father loves his son, and showed him everything he does; and greater works than these, will the Father show him, that you may wonder. For, when the Father raises the dead, and gives them life; so also the son gives life to whom he pleases; for neither does the Father judge anyone, but he has entrusted all judgment to the son, that every man may honor the son, as he honors the Father. He that honors not the son, honors not the Father that sent him. Truly I say to you, that he who hears my word, and believes on him that sent me, has life eternal, and will not come into comndemnation, but has passed from death to life. Truly I say to you, that the hour comes, and it is now already here, when the dead will hear the voice of the son of Yahweh; and they that hear, will live. For, as the Father has life in himself, so has he given to the son also, TO HAVE life in himself; and has moreover given him authority to execute judgment, as he is also the son of man. Marvel not at this; for the hour comes, when all that are in their graves will hear his voice; and will come forth; they that have done good, to the resurrection of life, and they that have done evil, to the resurrection of condemnation. I can do nothing of my own pleasure; but as I hear, so I judge; and my judgment is just; for I seek not my own pleasure, but the pleasure of him that sent me. If I should bear testimony respecting myself, my testimony would not be valid. There is another that bears testimony concerning me; and I know that the testimony which he bears concerning me is true. You sent unto John; and he bore testimony to the truth; and I have not received testimony from men; but these things I say, that you may live. He was a burning and shining lamp; and you were willing for a time, to glory in his light; but I have a testimony, which is greater than that of John; for the works which my Father has given me to accomplish, these works which I do, testify of me, that the Father has sent me; and the Father who sent me, he testifies of me; and his word abides not in you, because you believe not in him whom he has sent. Search the scriptures; for in them, you think, there is life eternal for you; and they testify of me; and you are unwilling to come to me, that life eternal may be yours. I do not receive glory from men; but I know you, that the love of Yahweh is not in you. I came in the name of my Father, and you receive me not; if another shall come in his own name, him you will receive. How can you believe, who receive glory from one another, and seek not the glory which comes from Yahweh only? Do you suppose, that I shall accuse you before the Father? There is one that will accuse you, that Moses, on whom you rely. For, if you believed Moses, you would also believe me; for Moses wrote concerning me; but if you believe not his writings, how will you believe my words?” Now when Yeshua had heard that John was delivered up, Yeshua returned to Galilee; and fame concerning him spread in all the region around them; and he taught in their synagogues, and was lauded by everyone; and he came to Nazareth, where he had been brought up; and he went as he was accustomed, into the synagogue on the Sabbath day, and rose up to read; and there was delivered to him the scroll of Isaiah the prophet; and Yeshua unrolled the scroll, and found the place where it is written, “The power of Yahweh is upon me, because Yahweh has anointed me; he has sent me as a herald of joy to the humble, to bind up the wounded of heart, to proclaim release to the captives, liberation to the imprisoned; to proclaim a year of Yahweh’s favor.” And Yeshua rolled up the scroll, and gave it to the servitor, and went and sat down; and the eyes of all in the synagogue were gazing upon him; and he began to say to them, “This day, is this scripture which you have heard, is fulfilled in your ears.” And all bare him witness, and admired the gracious words which proceeded from his mouth; and they said, “Is not this the son of Joseph?” Yeshua said to them, “Perhaps, you will speak to me this proverb, Physician, heal yourself; and whatever we have heard of your doing in Capernaum, do you here also in your city. Truly I say to you, there is no prophet who is acceptable in his own city; for I tell you the truth, that there were many widows in the House of Israel, in the days of Elijah the prophet, when the sky was closed up three years and six months, and there was a great famine in all the land; but to no one of them was Elijah sent, except to Sarepta of Sidon, unto a widow woman; and there were may lepers in the House of Israel, in the days of Elisha the prophet; but none of them was cleansed except Naaman the Syrian.” And when they heard these things, those in the synagogue were all filled with wrath; and they rose up, and thrust Yeshua out of the city, and brought him to the top of the hill on which the city was built, that they might cast him down from a cliff; but he passed through the midst of them, and went away.
