***The 15th day of the fifth month to the 19th day of the sixth month***

***The fourth day of the week and the second day of the week***

***Also, 8/3/0001 B.C. to 9/5/0001 B.C.***

 

 

And it came to pass, that on the eighth day they came to circumcise the child; and they called him Zacharias, after the name of his father.

And his mother answered and said, “Not so; but he shall be called John.”

And they said unto her, “There is none of thy kindred that is called by this name.”

And they made signs to his father, how he would have him called.

And he asked for a writing table, and wrote, saying, “His name is John.”

And they marvelled all.

And his mouth was opened immediately, and his tongue loosed, and he spake, and praised God.

And fear came on all that dwelt round about them: and all these sayings were noised abroad throughout all the hill country of Judaea.

And all they that heard them laid them up in their hearts, saying, “What manner of child shall this be!”

And the hand of the Lord was with him.

24. A Prophet

Now Herod had laid hold on John, and bound him, and put him in prison for Herodias' sake, his brother Philip's wife.

For John said unto him, ‘It is not lawful for thee to have her.’

And when he would have put him to death, he feared the multitude, because they counted him as a prophet.

And when a convenient day was come, that Herod on his birthday made a supper to his lords, high captains, and chief estates of Galilee; And when the daughter of the said Herodias came in, and danced, and pleased Herod and them that sat with him, the king said unto the damsel, “Ask of me whatsoever thou wilt, and I will give it thee.”

And he sware unto her, “Whatsoever thou shalt ask of me, I will give it thee, unto the half of my kingdom.”

And she went forth, and said unto her mother, “What shall I ask?”

And she said, “The head of John the Baptist.”

And she, being before instructed of her mother, came in straightway with haste unto the king, and asked, saying, “I will that thou give me by and by in a charger the head of John the Baptist.”

And the king was exceeding sorry; yet for his oath's sake, and for their sakes which sat with him, he would not reject her, and he commanded it to be given her.

And immediately the king sent an executioner, and commanded his head to be brought: and he went and beheaded him in the prison, And brought his head in a charger, and gave it to the damsel: and the damsel gave it to her mother.

 

 

25. A Prophet Is Not without Honour, but in His Own Country, and Among His Own Kin, and in His Own House

And when Jesus was come into his own country, And when the sabbath day was come, he began to teach in the synagogue: and he taught them in their synagogue, insomuch that many hearing him were astonished, and said, “From whence hath this man these things? and what wisdom is this which is given unto him, that even such mighty works are wrought by his hands?”

“Is not this the carpenter, the carpenter's son? is not his mother called Mary? and his brethren, James, and Joses, and Simon, and Judas? And his sisters, are they not all with us?”

“Whence then hath this man all these things?”

And they were offended in him.

But Jesus, said unto them, “A prophet is not without honour, but in his own country, and among his own kin, and in his own house.”

And he could there do no mighty work, save that he laid his hands upon a few sick folk, and healed them.

And he marvelled because of their unbelief.

34. He Shall Rise the Third Day

After these things Jesus walked in Galilee, and passed through Galilee, and he would not that any man should know it: for he would not walk in Jewry, because the Jews sought to kill him. And he taught his disciples, and said unto them, “The Son of man is delivered into the hands of men, and they shall kill him; and after that he is killed, he shall rise the third day.”

But they understood not this saying, and it was hid from them, that they perceived it not: and they feared to ask him of that saying.

And while they abode in Galilee, Jesus said unto them, “The Son of man shall be betrayed into the hands of men: And they shall kill him, and the third day he shall be raised again.”

And they were exceeding sorry.
