| 1 | He arose from there and came into the borders of Judea and beyond the Jordan. Multitudes came together to him again. As he usually did, he taught them again. | Mt 19:1-12 |
| 2 | There came to him Pharisees testing him, and asked him, "Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife?" | Mk 8:15 Mt 9:34 Mt 15:12 Mt 23:13 Lk 5:30 Lk 6:7 Lk 7:30 Lk 11:39 Lk 11:53 Lk 11:54 Lk 16:14 Jn 7:32 Jn 7:48 Jn 11:47 Jn 11:57 |
| 3 | He answered, "What did Moses command you?" | Isa 8:20 Lk 10:25 Jn 5:39 Ga 4:21 |
| 4 | They said, "Moses allowed a bill of divorce to be written, and to divorce her." | Dt 24:1-4 Isa 50:1 Jer 3:1 Mt 1:19 Mt 5:31 Mt 5:32 Mt 19:7 |
| 5 | But Jesus said to them, "For your hardness of heart, he wrote you this commandment. | Dt 9:6 Dt 31:27 Ne 9:16 Ne 9:17 Ne 9:26 Mt 19:8 Ac 7:51 Heb 3:7-10 |
| 6 | But from the beginning of the creation, `God made them male and female. | Gn 1:1 2Pe 3:4 |
| 7 | For this cause will a man leave his father and mother, and will join to his wife, | Gn 2:24 Mt 19:5 Mt 19:6 Eph 5:31 |
| 8 | and the two will become one flesh,` so that they are no longer two, but one flesh. | 1Co 6:16 Eph 5:28 |
| 9 | What therefore God has joined together, let no man separate." | Ro 7:1-3 1Ch 7:10-13 |
| 10 | In the house, his disciples asked him again about the same matter. | Mk 4:10 Mk 9:28 Mk 9:33 |
| 11 | He said to them, "Whoever will divorce his wife, and marry another, commits adultery against her. | Mt 5:31 Mt 5:32 Mt 19:9 Lk 16:18 Ro 7:3 1Co 7:4 1Co 7:10 1Co 7:11 Heb 13:4 |
| 12 | If a woman herself divorces her husband, and marries another, she commits adultery." |
| 13 | They were bringing to him little children, that he should touch them, but the disciples rebuked those who were bringing them. | Mt 19:13-15 Lk 18:15 Lk 18:16 |
| 14 | But when Jesus saw it, he was moved with indignation, and said to them, "Allow the little children to come to me! Don`t forbid them, for to such belong the kingdom of God. | Mk 3:5 Mk 8:33 Lk 9:54-56 Eph 4:26 |
| 15 | Most assuredly I tell you, whoever will not receive the kingdom of God as a little child, he will in no way enter therein." | Mt 18:3 Lk 18:17 Jn 3:3-6 |
| 16 | He took them in his arms, and blessed them, laying his hands on them. | Gn 48:14-16 Dt 28:3 Isa 40:11 Lk 2:28-34 Lk 24:50 Lk 24:51 Jn 21:15-17 |
| 17 | As he was going forth into the way, one ran to him, kneeled to him, and asked him, "Good Teacher, what shall I do that I may inherit eternal life?" | Mt 19:16-30 Lk 18:18-30 |
| 18 | Jesus said to him, "Why do you call me good? No one is good except one -- God. | Mt 19:17 Lk 18:19 Jn 5:41-44 Ro 3:12 |
| 19 | You know the commandments: `Do not murder,` `Do not commit adultery,` `Do not steal,` `Do not give false testimony,` `Do not defraud,` `Honor your father and mother.`" | Mk 12:28-34 Isa 8:20 Mt 5:17-20 Mt 19:17-19 Lk 10:26-28 Lk 18:20 Ro 3:20 Ga 4:21 |
| 20 | He said to him, "Teacher, all these things have I observed from my youth." | Isa 58:2 Ezk 5:14 Ezk 33:31 Ezk 33:32 Mal 3:8 Mt 19:20 Lk 10:29 Lk 18:11 Lk 18:12 Ro 7:9 Php 3:6 2Ti 3:5 |
| 21 | Jesus looking at him loved him, and said to him, "One thing you lack. Go, sell whatever you have, and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow me, taking up the cross." | Gn 34:19 Isa 63:8-10 Lk 19:41 2Co 12:15 |
| 22 | But his face fell at that saying, and he went away sorrowful, for he was one who had great possessions. | Mk 6:20 Mk 6:26 Mt 19:22 Mt 27:3 Mt 27:24-26 Lk 18:23 2Co 7:10 2Ti 4:10 |
| 23 | Jesus looked around, and said to his disciples, "How difficult it is for those who have riches to enter into the kingdom of God!" | Mk 3:5 Mk 5:32 |
| 24 | The disciples were amazed at his words. But Jesus answered again, "Children, how hard is it for those who trust in riches to enter into the kingdom of God! | Mt 19:25 Lk 18:26 Lk 18:27 Jn 6:60 |
| 25 | It is easier for a camel to go through the needle`s eye, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God." | Jer 13:23 Mt 7:3-5 Mt 19:24 Mt 19:25 Mt 23:24 Lk 18:25 |
| 26 | They were exceedingly astonished, saying to him, "Then who can be saved?" | Mk 6:51 Mk 7:37 2Co 11:23 |
| 27 | Jesus, looking at them, said, "With men it is impossible, but not with God, for all things are possible with God." | Gn 18:13 Gn 18:14 Nm 11:21-23 2Ki 7:2 Zc 8:6 Mt 19:26 Lk 18:27 |
| 28 | Peter began to tell him, "Behold, we have left all, and have followed you." | Mk 1:16-20 Mt 19:27-30 Lk 14:33 Lk 18:28-30 Php 3:7-9 |
| 29 | Jesus said, "Most assuredly I tell you, there is no one who has left house, or brothers, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or land, for my sake, and for the gospel`s sake, | Gn 12:1-3 Gn 45:20 Dt 33:9-11 Lk 22:28-30 Heb 11:24-26 |
| 30 | but he will receive one hundred times now in this time, houses, brothers, sisters, mothers, children, and land, with persecutions; and in the age to come eternal life. | 2Ch 25:9 Ps 84:11 Pr 3:9 Pr 3:10 Pr 16:16 Mal 3:10 Mt 13:44-46 Lk 18:30 2Co 6:10 2Co 9:8-11 Php 3:8 2Th 2:16 1Ti 6:6 1Jn 3:1 Rev 2:9 Rev 3:18 |
| 31 | But many who are first will be last; and the last first." | Mt 8:11 Mt 8:12 Mt 19:30 Mt 20:16 Mt 21:31 Lk 7:29 Lk 7:30 Lk 7:40-47 Lk 13:30 Lk 18:11-14 Ac 13:46-48 Ro 9:30-33 |
| 32 | They were on the way, going up to Jerusalem; and Jesus was going in front of them, and they were amazed; and those who followed were afraid. He again took the twelve, and began to tell them the things that were going to happen to him. | Mt 20:17-19 Lk 18:31-34 |
| 33 | "Behold, we are going up to Jerusalem. The Son of Man will be delivered to the chief priests and the scribes. They will condemn him to death, and will deliver him to the Gentiles. | Ac 20:22 |
| 34 | They will mock him, spit on him, scourge him, and kill him. On the third day he will rise again." | Mk 14:65 Mk 15:17-20 Mk 15:29-31 Ps 22:6-8 Ps 22:13-8 Isa 53:3 Mt 27:27-44 Lk 22:63-65 Lk 23:11 Lk 23:35-39 Jn 19:2 Jn 19:3 |
| 35 | James and John, the sons of Zebedee, came near to him, saying, "Teacher, we want you to do for us whatever we will ask." | Mk 1:19 Mk 1:20 Mk 5:37 Mk 9:2 Mk 14:33 |
| 36 | He said to them, "What do you want me to do for you?" | Mk 10:51 1Ki 3:5-15 Jn 15:7 |
| 37 | They said to him, "Grant to us that we may sit, one at your right hand, and one at your left hand, in your glory." | Mk 16:19 1Ki 22:19 Ps 45:9 Ps 110:1 |
| 38 | But Jesus said to them, "You don`t know what you ask. Are you able to drink the cup that I drink, and to be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with?" | 1Ki 2:22 Jer 45:5 Mt 20:21 Mt 20:22 Ro 8:26 Jm 4:3 |
| 39 | They said to him, "We are able." Jesus said to them, "You shall indeed drink the cup that I drink, and you shall be baptized with the baptism that I am baptized with; | Mk 14:31 Jn 13:37 |
| 40 | but to sit at my right hand and at my left hand is not mine to give, but for whom it has been prepared." | Mt 20:23 Mt 25:34 Jn 17:2 Jn 17:24 Heb 11:16 |
| 41 | When the ten heard it, they began to be moved with indignation towards James and John. | Mk 9:33-36 Pr 13:10 Mt 20:24 Lk 22:24 Ro 12:10 Php 2:3 Jm 4:5 |
| 42 | Jesus called them to him, and said to them, "You know that they who are recognized as rulers over the Gentiles lord it over them, and their great ones exercise authority over them. | Mt 20:25 Lk 22:25 1Pe 5:3 |
| 43 | But it shall not be so among you, but whoever wants to become great among you, will be your servant. | Jn 18:36 Ro 12:2 |
| 44 | Whoever of you wants to become first among you, shall be servant of all. |
| 45 | For the Son of Man also came not to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many." | Mt 20:28 Lk 22:26 Lk 22:27 Jn 13:14 Php 2:5-8 Heb 5:8 |
| 46 | They came to Jericho. As he went out from Jericho, with his disciples and a great multitude, the son of Timaeus, Bartimaeus, a blind beggar, was sitting by the road. | Mt 20:29-34 Lk 18:35-43 |
| 47 | When he heard that it was Jesus, the Nazarene, he began to cry out, and say, "Jesus, you son of David, have mercy on me!" | Mt 2:23 Mt 21:11 Mt 26:71 Lk 4:16 Lk 18:36 Lk 18:37 Jn 1:46 Jn 7:41 Jn 7:52 Jn 19:19 Ac 6:14 |
| 48 | Many rebuked him, that he should be quiet, but he cried out the more a great deal, "You son of David, have mercy on me!" | Mk 5:35 Mt 19:13 Mt 20:31 Lk 18:39 |
| 49 | Jesus stood still, and said, "Call him." They called the blind man, saying to him, "Cheer up! Get up. He is calling you." | Ps 86:15 Ps 145:8 Mt 20:32-34 Lk 18:40 Heb 2:17 Heb 4:15 |
| 50 | He, casting away his cloak, sprang up, and came to Jesus. | Php 3:7-9 Heb 12:1 |
| 51 | Jesus answered him, "What do you want me to do for you?" The blind man said to him, "Rhabboni, that I may see again." | Mk 10:36 2Ch 1:7 Mt 6:8 Mt 7:7 Lk 18:41-43 Php 4:6 |
| 52 | Jesus said to him, "Go your way. Your faith has made you well." Immediately he received his sight, and followed Jesus in the way. | Mk 5:34 Mt 9:22 Mt 9:28-30 Mt 15:28 Lk 7:50 Lk 9:48 |
