Matthew 13:54

Jesus went about all the cities and the villages, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the Good News of the Kingdom, and healing every disease and every sickness among the people.

for I will give you a mouth and wisdom which all your adversaries will not be able to withstand or to contradict.

What he has seen and heard, of that he testifies; and no one receives his witness.

saying, “I will declare your name to my brothers. Among the congregation I will sing your praise.”

Then Yahweh stretched out his hand, and touched my mouth. Then Yahweh said to me, “Behold, I have put my words in your mouth.

He who believes and is baptized will be saved; but he who disbelieves will be condemned.

and they were astonished at his teaching, for his word was with authority.

Philip found Nathanael, and said to him, “We have found him, of whom Moses in the law, and the prophets, wrote: Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph.”

Anxiety in a man’s heart weighs it down, but a kind word makes it glad.

“Come to me, all you who labor and are heavily burdened, and I will give you rest.

They went into Capernaum, and immediately on the Sabbath day he entered into the synagogue and taught.

He went into their synagogues throughout all Galilee, preaching and casting out demons.

Now in the sixth month, the angel Gabriel was sent from God to a city of Galilee named Nazareth,

preaching God’s Kingdom, and teaching the things concerning the Lord Jesus Christ with all boldness, without hindrance.

but having suffered before and been shamefully treated, as you know, at Philippi, we grew bold in our God to tell you the Good News of God in much conflict.

Now therefore go, and I will be with your mouth, and teach you what you shall speak.”

When all who knew him before saw that, behold, he prophesied with the prophets, then the people said to one another, “What is this that has come to the son of Kish? Is Saul also among the prophets?”

that men may declare Yahweh’s name in Zion, and his praise in Jerusalem;

Let them exalt him also in the assembly of the people, and praise him in the seat of the elders.

I rise before dawn and cry for help. I put my hope in your words.

She has sent out her maidens. She cries from the highest places of the city:

Joy comes to a man with the reply of his mouth. How good is a word at the right time!

A word fitly spoken is like apples of gold in settings of silver.

The Lord Yahweh has given me the tongue of those who are taught, that I may know how to sustain with words him who is weary. He awakens morning by morning, he awakens my ear to hear as those who are taught.

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.

The multitudes said, “This is the prophet, Jesus, from Nazareth of Galilee.”

No one was able to answer him a word, neither did any man dare ask him any more questions from that day forward.

This Good News of the Kingdom will be preached in the whole world for a testimony to all the nations, and then the end will come.

Now after John was taken into custody, Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the Good News of God’s Kingdom,

When the Sabbath had come, he began to teach in the synagogue, and many hearing him were astonished, saying, “Where did this man get these things?” and, “What is the wisdom that is given to this man, that such mighty works come about by his hands?

The chief priests and the scribes heard it, and sought how they might destroy him. For they feared him, because all the multitude was astonished at his teaching.

All testified about him, and wondered at the gracious words which proceeded out of his mouth, and they said, “Isn’t this Joseph’s son?”

But his citizens hated him, and sent an envoy after him, saying, ‘We don’t want this man to reign over us.’

God, having raised up his servant Jesus, sent him to you first to bless you, in turning away every one of you from your wickedness.”

Now, Lord, look at their threats, and grant to your servants to speak your word with all boldness,

even Jesus of Nazareth, how God anointed him with the Holy Spirit and with power, who went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil, for God was with him.

“Be it known therefore to you, that the salvation of God is sent to the nations, and they will listen.”

but God chose the foolish things of the world that he might put to shame those who are wise. God chose the weak things of the world that he might put to shame the things that are strong.

for, behold, you shall conceive and give birth to a son. No razor shall come on his head, for the child shall be a Nazirite to God from the womb. He shall begin to save Israel out of the hand of the Philistines.”

Yahweh, in the morning you will hear my voice. In the morning I will lay my requests before you, and will watch expectantly.

I will bless Yahweh, who has given me counsel. Yes, my heart instructs me in the night seasons.

I have proclaimed glad news of righteousness in the great assembly. Behold, I will not seal my lips, Yahweh, you know.

who forgives all your sins, who heals all your diseases,

Cause me to hear your loving kindness in the morning, for I trust in you. Cause me to know the way in which I should walk, for I lift up my soul to you.

The tongue of the wise commends knowledge, but the mouth of fools gush out folly.

The wise in heart shall be called prudent. Pleasantness of the lips promotes instruction.

The wicked flee when no one pursues; but the righteous are as bold as a lion.

Then the eyes of the blind will be opened, and the ears of the deaf will be unstopped.

Who among you fears Yahweh and obeys the voice of his servant? He who walks in darkness and has no light, let him trust in Yahweh’s name, and rely on his God.

Now all this has happened that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying,

Rather, go to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.

Therefore don’t be afraid of them, for there is nothing covered that will not be revealed; and hidden that will not be known.

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.

He set another parable before them, saying, “The Kingdom of Heaven is like a man who sowed good seed in his field,

But he answered, “I wasn’t sent to anyone but the lost sheep of the house of Israel.”

In those days, Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was baptized by John in the Jordan.

All who heard him were amazed at his understanding and his answers.

He was preaching in the synagogues of Galilee.

Soon afterwards, he went about through cities and villages, preaching and bringing the good news of God’s Kingdom. With him were the twelve,

For I tell you that none of those men who were invited will taste of my supper.’ ”

But they insisted, saying, “He stirs up the people, teaching throughout all Judea, beginning from Galilee even to this place.”

and that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name to all the nations, beginning at Jerusalem.

The officers answered, “No man ever spoke like this man!”

Again therefore he asked them, “Who are you looking for?” They said, “Jesus of Nazareth.”

But Barnabas took him and brought him to the apostles, and declared to them how he had seen the Lord on the way, and that he had spoken to him, and how at Damascus he had preached boldly in the name of Jesus.

Brothers, children of the stock of Abraham, and those among you who fear God, the word of this salvation is sent out to you.

In Iconium, they entered together into the synagogue of the Jews, and so spoke that a great multitude both of Jews and of Greeks believed.

but declared first to them of Damascus, at Jerusalem, and throughout all the country of Judea, and also to the Gentiles, that they should repent and turn to God, doing works worthy of repentance.

Now I say that Christ has been made a servant of the circumcision for the truth of God, that he might confirm the promises given to the fathers,

and came and lived in a city called Nazareth; that it might be fulfilled which was spoken through the prophets that he will be called a Nazarene.

Jesus went about in all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, preaching the Good News of the Kingdom, and healing every disease and every sickness among the people.

When Jesus had finished saying these things, the multitudes were astonished at his teaching,

Then Jesus said to them, “Don’t be afraid. Go tell my brothers that they should go into Galilee, and there they will see me.”

On one of those days, he was teaching; and there were Pharisees and teachers of the law sitting by, who had come out of every village of Galilee, Judea, and Jerusalem. The power of the Lord was with him to heal them.

Jesus answered them, “Go and tell John the things which you have seen and heard: that 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.

Heal the sick who are there, and tell them, ‘God’s Kingdom has come near to you.’

The Jews therefore marveled, saying, “How does this man know letters, having never been educated?”

Now on the last and greatest day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried out, “If anyone is thirsty, let him come to me and drink!

I made known to them your name, and will make it known; that the love with which you loved me may be in them, and I in them.”

They answered him, “Jesus of Nazareth.” Jesus said to them, “I am he.” Judas also, who betrayed him, was standing with them.

Jesus answered him, “I spoke openly to the world. I always taught in synagogues, and in the temple, where the Jews always meet. I said nothing in secret.

“Now, behold, I know that you all, among whom I went about preaching God’s Kingdom, will see my face no more.

And how will they preach unless they are sent? As it is written: “How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the Good News of peace, who bring glad tidings of good things!”

but to those who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ is the power of God and the wisdom of God;

Because of him, you are in Christ Jesus, who was made to us wisdom from God, and righteousness and sanctification, and redemption:

I will declare your name to my brothers. Among the assembly, I will praise you.

Wisdom calls aloud in the street. She utters her voice in the public squares.

They were astonished at his teaching, for he taught them as having authority, and not as the scribes.

He taught in their synagogues, being glorified by all.

He said to them, “Doubtless you will tell me this parable, ‘Physician, heal yourself! Whatever we have heard done at Capernaum, do also here in your hometown.’ ”

He came to his own, and those who were his own didn’t receive him.

Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, and had perceived that they were unlearned and ignorant men, they marveled. They recognized that they had been with Jesus.

Paul and Barnabas spoke out boldly, and said, “It was necessary that God’s word should be spoken to you first. Since indeed you thrust it from yourselves, and judge yourselves unworthy of eternal life, behold, we turn to the Gentiles.
