| 1 | It happened, when he went into the house of one of the rulers of the Pharisees on a Sabbath to eat bread, that they were watching him. | Lk 7:34-36 Lk 11:37 1Co 9:19-22 |
| 2 | Behold, a certain man who had dropsy was in front of him. |
| 3 | Jesus, answering, spoke to the lawyers and Pharisees, saying, "Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath?" | Lk 11:44 Lk 11:45 |
| 4 | But they were silent. He took him, and healed him, and let him go. | Mt 21:25-27 Mt 22:46 |
| 5 | He answered them, "Which of you, if your son or an ox fell into a well, wouldn`t immediately pull him out on a Sabbath day?" | Lk 13:15 Ex 23:4 Ex 23:5 Dn 4:24 Mt 12:11 Mt 12:12 |
| 6 | They couldn`t answer him regarding these things. | Lk 13:17 Lk 20:26 Lk 20:40 Lk 21:15 Ac 6:10 |
| 7 | He spoke a parable to those who were invited, when he noticed how they chose the best seats, and said to them, | Jg 14:12 Pr 8:1 Ezk 17:2 Mt 13:34 |
| 8 | "When you are invited by anyone to a marriage feast, don`t sit in the best seat, since perhaps a more honorable man than you might be invited by him, | Pr 25:6 Pr 25:7 |
| 9 | and he who invited both of you would come and tell you, `Make room for this man.` Then you would begin, with shame, to take the lowest place. | Es 6:6-12 Pr 3:35 Pr 11:2 Pr 16:18 Ezk 28:2-10 Dn 4:30-34 |
| 10 | But when you are invited, go and sit in the lowest place, so that when he who invited you comes, he may tell you, `Friend, move up higher.` Then you will have glory in the presence of all who sit at the table with you. | 1Sa 15:17 Pr 15:33 Pr 25:6 Pr 25:7 |
| 11 | For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and whoever humbles himself will be exalted." | Lk 1:51 Lk 18:14 1Sa 15:17 Jb 22:29 Jb 40:10-12 Ps 18:27 Ps 138:6 Pr 15:33 Pr 18:12 Pr 29:23 Isa 2:11 Isa 2:17 Isa 57:15 Mt 23:12 Jm 4:6 1Pe 5:5 |
| 12 | He also said to the one who had invited him, "When you make a dinner or a supper, don`t call your friends, nor your brothers, nor your kinsmen, nor rich neighbors, or perhaps they might also return the favor, and pay you back. | Lk 1:53 Pr 14:20 Pr 22:16 Jm 2:1-6 |
| 13 | But when you make a feast, ask the poor, the maimed, the lame, or the blind; | Lk 14:21 Lk 11:41 Dt 14:29 Dt 16:11 Dt 16:14 Dt 26:12 Dt 26:13 2Sa 6:19 2Ch 30:24 Ne 8:10 Ne 8:12 Jb 29:13 Jb 29:15 Jb 29:16 Jb 31:16-20 Pr 3:9 Pr 3:10 Pr 14:31 Pr 31:6 Pr 31:7 Isa 58:7 Isa 58:10 Mt 14:14-21 Mt 15:32-39 Mt 22:10 Ac 2:44 Ac 2:45 Ac 4:34 Ac 4:35 Ac 9:39 Ro 12:13-16 1Ti 3:2 1Ti 5:10 Tit 1:8 Phm 1:7 Heb 13:2 |
| 14 | and you will be blessed, because they don`t have the resources to repay you. For you will be repaid in the resurrection of the righteous." | Pr 19:17 Mt 6:4 Mt 10:41 Mt 10:42 Mt 25:34-40 Php 4:18 Php 4:19 |
| 15 | When one of those who sat at the table with him heard these things, he said to him, "Blessed is he who will feast in the kingdom of God!" | Lk 12:37 Lk 13:29 Lk 22:30 Mt 8:11 Mt 25:10 Jn 6:27-59 Rev 19:9 |
| 16 | But he said to him, "A certain man made a great supper, and he invited many people. | Pr 9:1 Pr 9:2 Isa 25:6 Isa 25:7 Jer 31:12-14 Zc 10:7 Mt 22:2-14 |
| 17 | He sent out his servant at supper time to tell those who were invited, `Come, for everything is ready now.` | Lk 3:4-6 Lk 9:1-5 Lk 10:1-12 Pr 9:1-5 Mt 3:1-12 Mt 10:1-4 Ac 2:38 Ac 2:39 Ac 3:24-26 Ac 13:26 Ac 13:38 Ac 13:39 |
| 18 | They all as one began to make excuses. The first said to him, `I have bought a field, and I must go and see it. Please have me excused.` | Lk 20:4 Lk 20:5 Isa 28:12 Isa 28:13 Isa 29:11 Isa 29:12 Jer 5:4 Jer 5:5 Jer 6:10 Jer 6:16 Jer 6:17 Mt 22:5 Mt 22:6 Jn 1:11 Jn 5:40 Ac 13:45 Ac 13:46 Ac 18:5 Ac 18:6 Ac 28:25-27 |
| 19 | Another said, `I have bought five yoke of oxen, and I must go try them out. Please have me excused.` |
| 20 | Another said, `I have married a wife, and therefore I can`t come.` | Lk 14:26-28 Lk 18:29 Lk 18:30 1Co 7:29-31 1Co 7:33-31 |
| 21 | That servant came, and told his lord these things. Then the master of the house, being angry, said to his servant, `Go out quickly into the streets and lanes of the city, and bring in here the poor, maimed, blind, and lame.` | Lk 9:10 1Sa 25:12 Mt 15:12 Mt 18:31 Heb 13:17 |
| 22 | The servant said, `Lord, it is done as you commanded, and there is still room.` | Ac 1:1-9 |
| 23 | The lord said to the servant, `Go out into the highways and hedges, and compel them to come in, that my house may be filled. | Ps 98:3 Isa 11:10 Isa 19:24 Isa 19:25 Isa 27:13 Isa 49:5 Isa 49:6 Isa 66:19 Isa 66:20 Zc 14:8 Zc 14:9 Mal 1:11 Mt 21:43 Mt 22:9 Mt 22:10 Mt 28:19 Mt 28:20 Ac 9:15 Ac 10:44-48 Ac 11:18-21 Ac 13:47 Ac 13:48 Ac 18:6 Ac 22:21 Ac 22:22 Ac 26:18-20 Ac 28:28 Ro 10:18 Ro 15:9-12 Eph 2:11-22 Col 1:23 |
| 24 | For I tell you that none of those men who were invited will taste of my supper.`" | Pr 1:24-32 Mt 21:43 Mt 22:8 Mt 23:38 Mt 23:39 Jn 3:19 Jn 3:36 Jn 8:21 Jn 8:24 Ac 13:46 Heb 12:25 Heb 12:26 |
| 25 | Now great multitudes went with him. He turned and said to them, | Lk 12:1 Jn 6:24-27 |
| 26 | "If any man comes to me, and doesn`t hate his own father, mother, wife, children, brothers, and sisters, yes, and his own life also, he can`t be my disciple. | Dt 13:6-8 Dt 33:9 Ps 73:25 Ps 73:26 Mt 10:37 Php 3:8 |
| 27 | Whoever doesn`t bear his own cross, and come after me, can`t be my disciple. | Lk 9:23-25 Mt 10:38 Mt 16:24-26 Mk 8:34-37 Mk 10:21 Mk 15:21 Jn 19:17 2Ti 3:12 |
| 28 | For which of you, desiring to build a tower, doesn`t first sit down and count the cost, to see if he has enough to complete it? | Gn 11:4-9 Pr 24:27 |
| 29 | Or perhaps, when he has laid a foundation, and is not able to finish, everyone who sees begins to mock him, |
| 30 | saying, `This man began to build, and wasn`t able to finish.` | Mt 7:27 Mt 27:3-8 Ac 1:18 Ac 1:19 1Co 3:11-14 Heb 6:4-8 Heb 6:11-8 Heb 10:38 2Pe 2:19-22 2Jn 1:8 |
| 31 | Or what king, as he goes to encounter another king in war, will not sit down first and consider whether he is able with ten thousand to meet him who comes against him with twenty thousand? | 1Ki 20:11 2Ki 18:20-22 Pr 20:18 Pr 25:8 |
| 32 | Or else, while the other is yet a great way off, he sends an envoy, and asks for conditions of peace. | Lk 12:58 1Ki 20:31-34 2Ki 10:4 2Ki 10:5 Jb 40:9 Mt 5:25 Ac 12:20 Jm 4:6-10 |
| 33 | So therefore whoever of you who doesn`t renounce all that he has, he can`t be my disciple. | Lk 14:26 Lk 5:11 Lk 5:28 Lk 18:22 Lk 18:23 Lk 18:28-30 Ac 5:1-5 Ac 8:19-22 Php 3:7 Php 3:8 2Ti 4:10 1Jn 2:15 1Jn 2:16 |
| 34 | Salt is good, but if the salt becomes flat and tasteless, with what do you season it? | Mt 5:13 Mk 9:49 Mk 9:50 Col 4:6 Heb 2:4-8 |
| 35 | It is fit neither for the soil nor for the manure pile. It is thrown out. He who has ears to hear, let him hear." | Jn 15:6 |
