| 1 | It happened that when Jesus had finished directing his twelve disciples, he departed there to teach and preach in their cities. | Mt 28:20 Jn 15:10 Jn 15:14 Ac 1:2 Ac 10:42 1Th 4:2 2Th 3:6 2Th 3:10 1Ti 6:14 |
| 2 | Now when John heard in the prison the works of Christ, he sent two of his disciples | Mt 4:12 Mt 14:3 Mk 6:17 Lk 3:19 Lk 7:18-23 Jn 3:24 |
| 3 | and said to him, "Are you he who comes, or should we look for another?" | Mt 2:2-6 Gn 3:15 Gn 12:3 Gn 49:10 Nm 24:17 Dt 18:15-18 Ps 2:6-12 Ps 110:1-5 Isa 7:14 Isa 9:6 Isa 9:7 Jer 23:5 Jer 23:6 Ezk 34:23 Ezk 34:24 Dn 9:24-26 Hos 3:5 Jl 2:28-32 Am 9:11 Am 9:12 Ob 1:21 Mic 5:2 Zep 3:14-17 Hg 2:7 Zc 9:9 Mal 3:1 Mal 4:2 Jn 4:21 Jn 7:31 Jn 7:41 Jn 7:42 |
| 4 | Jesus answered them, "Go and tell John the things which you hear and see: |
| 5 | the blind receive their sight, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised up, and the poor have good news preached to them. | Mt 9:30 Ps 146:8 Isa 29:18 Isa 35:4-6 Isa 42:6 Isa 42:7 Lk 4:18 Lk 7:21 Lk 7:22 Jn 2:23 Jn 3:2 Jn 5:36 Jn 10:25 Jn 10:38 Jn 14:11 Jn 14:12 Ac 2:22 Ac 4:9 Ac 4:10 |
| 6 | Blessed is he, whoever finds no occasion for stumbling in me." | Mt 5:3-12 Ps 1:1 Ps 1:2 Ps 32:1 Ps 32:2 Ps 119:1 Lk 11:27 Lk 11:28 |
| 7 | As these went their way, Jesus began to say to the multitudes concerning John, "What did you go out into the wilderness to see? A reed shaken with the wind? | Lk 7:24-30 |
| 8 | But what did you go out to see? A man in soft clothing? Behold, those who wear soft clothing are in king`s houses. | Mt 3:4 2Ki 1:8 Isa 20:2 Zc 13:4 1Co 4:11 2Co 11:27 Rev 11:3 |
| 9 | But why did you go out? To see a prophet? Yes, I tell you, and much more than a prophet. | Mt 11:13 Mt 11:14 Mt 14:5 Mt 17:12 Mt 17:13 Mt 21:24-26 Mk 9:11-13 Lk 1:15-17 Lk 1:76-17 |
| 10 | For this is he, of whom it is written, `Behold, I send my messenger before your face, who will prepare your way before you.` | Mt 3:3 Isa 40:3 Mal 3:1 Mal 4:5 Mk 1:2 Lk 7:26 Lk 7:27 Jn 1:23 |
| 11 | Most assuredly I tell you, among those who are born of women there has not arisen anyone greater than John the Baptizer; yet he who is least in the Kingdom of Heaven is greater than he. | Jb 14:1 Jb 14:4 Jb 15:14 Jb 25:4 Ps 51:5 Eph 2:3 |
| 12 | From the days of John the Baptizer until now, the Kingdom of Heaven suffers violence, and the violent take it by force. | Mt 21:23-32 Lk 7:29 Lk 7:30 Lk 13:24 Lk 16:16 Jn 6:27 Eph 6:11-13 Php 2:12 |
| 13 | For all the prophets and the law prophesied until John. | Mt 5:17 Mt 5:18 Mal 4:6 Lk 24:27 Lk 24:44 Jn 5:46 Jn 5:47 Ac 3:22-24 Ac 13:27 Ro 3:21 |
| 14 | If you are willing to receive it, this is Elijah, who is to come. | Ezk 2:5 Ezk 3:10 Ezk 3:11 Jn 16:12 1Co 3:2 |
| 15 | He who has ears to hear, let him hear. | Mt 13:9 Mt 13:43 Mk 4:9 Mk 4:23 Mk 7:16 Lk 8:8 Rev 2:7 Rev 2:11 Rev 2:17 Rev 2:29 Rev 3:6 Rev 3:13 Rev 3:22 |
| 16 | "But what will I compare this generation to? It is like children sitting in the marketplaces, who call to their companions | Lam 2:13 Mk 4:30 Lk 13:18 |
| 17 | and say, `We played the flute for you, and you didn`t dance. We mourned for you, and you didn`t lament.` | Isa 28:9-13 1Co 9:19-23 |
| 18 | For John came neither eating nor drinking, and they say, `He has a demon.` | Mt 3:4 Jer 15:17 Jer 16:8 Jer 16:9 Lk 1:15 1Co 9:27 |
| 19 | The Son of Man came eating and drinking, and they say, `Behold, a gluttonous man and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners!` But wisdom is justified by her children." | Lk 5:29 Lk 5:30 Lk 7:34 Lk 7:36 Lk 14:1 Jn 2:2 Jn 12:2-8 Ro 15:2 |
| 20 | Then he began to denounce the cities in which most of his mighty works were done, because they didn`t repent. | Lk 10:13-15 |
| 21 | "Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! For if the mighty works had been done in Tyre and Sidon which were done in you, they would have repented long ago in sackcloth and ashes. | Mt 18:7 Mt 23:13-29 Mt 26:24 Jer 13:27 Lk 11:42-52 Jud 1:11 |
| 22 | But I tell you, it will be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon in the day of judgment than for you. | Mt 11:24 Mt 10:15 Lk 10:14 Lk 12:47 Lk 12:48 Heb 2:3 Heb 6:4-8 Heb 10:26-31 |
| 23 | You, Capernaum, who are exalted to Heaven, you will go down to Hades. For if the mighty works had been done in Sodom which were done in you, it would have remained until this day. | Mt 4:13 Mt 8:5 Mt 17:24 Lk 4:23 Jn 4:46-54 |
| 24 | But I tell you that it will be more tolerable for the land of Sodom, in the day of judgment, than for you." | Mt 11:22 Mt 10:15 Lam 4:6 Mk 6:11 Lk 10:12 |
| 25 | At that time, Jesus answered, "I thank you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that you hid these things from the wise and understanding, and revealed them to infants. | Lk 10:21-24 |
| 26 | Yes, Father, for so it was well-pleasing in your sight. | Jb 33:13 Isa 46:10 Lk 10:21 Ro 9:18 Ro 11:33-36 Eph 1:9 Eph 1:11 Eph 3:11 2Ti 1:9 |
| 27 | All things have been delivered to me by my Father. No one knows the Son, except the Father; neither does anyone know the Father, except the Son, and he to whoever the Son wants to reveal him. | Mt 28:18 Jn 3:35 Jn 5:21-29 Jn 13:3 Jn 17:2 1Co 15:25-27 Eph 1:20-23 Php 2:10 Php 2:11 Heb 2:8-10 1Pe 3:22 |
| 28 | "Come to me, all you who labor and are heavily burdened, and I will give you rest. | Isa 45:22-25 Isa 53:2 Isa 53:3 Isa 55:1-3 Jn 6:37 Jn 7:37 Rev 22:17 |
| 29 | Take my yoke on you, and learn from me, for I am humble and lowly in heart; and you will find rest for your souls. | Mt 7:24 Mt 17:5 Jn 13:17 Jn 14:21-24 Jn 15:10-14 1Co 9:21 2Co 10:5 1Th 4:2 2Th 1:8 Heb 5:9 |
| 30 | For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light." | Pr 3:17 Mic 6:8 Ac 15:10 Ac 15:28 Ga 5:1 Ga 5:18 1Jn 5:3 |
