4. His Name Was Called Jesus

And when eight days were accomplished for the circumcising of the child, his name was called JESUS, which was so named of the angel before he was conceived in the womb.

And Joseph called his name Jesus.

 

 

 

***The 24th day of the tenth month***

***The 6th day of the week***

Then Herod, when he had privily called the wise men, enquired of them diligently what time the star appeared.

And he sent them to Bethlehem, and said, “Go and search diligently for the young child; and when ye have found him, bring me word again, that I may come and worship him also.”

When they had heard the king, they departed; and, lo, the star, which they saw in the east, went before them, till it came and stood over where the young child was. When they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceeding great joy.

And when they were come into the house, they saw the young child with Mary his mother, and fell down, and worshipped him: and when they had opened their treasures, they presented unto him gifts; gold, and frankincense and myrrh.

 

 

 

***The 23rd day of the eleventh month***

***Also, 02/03/0001***

 

 

And when the days of Mary’s purification according to the law of Moses were accomplished, they brought him to Jerusalem, to present him to the Lord; (As it is written in the law (as it is written) of the LORD, “Every male that openeth the womb shall be called holy to the Lord;”) And to offer a sacrifice according to that which is said in the law (as it is written) of the Lord, “A pair of turtledoves, or two young pigeons.”

And, behold, there was a man in Jerusalem, whose name was Simeon; and the same man was just and devout, waiting for the consolation of Israel: and the Holy Ghost was upon him. And it was revealed unto him by the Holy Ghost, that he should not see death, before he had seen the Lord's Christ.

And he came by the Spirit into the temple: and when the parents brought in the child Jesus, to do for him after the custom of the law, Then took he him up in his arms, and blessed God, and said, “Lord, now lettest thou thy servant depart in peace, according to thy word: For mine eyes have seen thy salvation, Which thou hast prepared before the face of all people; A light to lighten the Gentiles, and the glory of thy people Israel.”

And Joseph and his mother marvelled at those things which were spoken of him.

And Simeon blessed them, and said unto Mary his mother, “Behold, this child is set for the fall and rising again of many in Israel; and for a sign which shall be spoken against; (Yea, a sword shall pierce through thy own soul also,) that the thoughts of many hearts may be revealed.”

And there was one Anna, a prophetess, the daughter of Phanuel, of the tribe of Aser: she was of a great age, and had lived with an husband seven years from her virginity; And she was a widow of about fourscore and four years, which departed not from the temple, but served God with fastings and prayers night and day.

And she coming in that instant gave thanks likewise unto the Lord, and spake of him to all them that looked for redemption in Jerusalem.

And when they had performed all things according to the law of the Lord, they returned into Galilee, to their own city Nazareth.

And being warned of God in a dream that they should not return to Herod, the Magi departed into their own country another way.

8. This Is My Beloved Son, in Whom I Am Well Pleased

There was a man sent from God, whose name was John.

Now in the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius Caesar, Pontius Pilate being governor of Judaea, and Herod being tetrarch of Galilee, and his brother Philip tetrarch of Ituraea and of the region of Trachonitis, and Lysanias the tetrarch of Abilene, Annas and Caiaphas being the high priests, the word of God came unto John the son of Zacharias in the wilderness.

And he came into all the country about Jordan, preaching the baptism of repentance for the remission of sins; As it is written in the prophets, “Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, which shall prepare thy way before thee.”

“The voice of one crying in the wilderness, ‘Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make his paths straight.’”

In those days came John the Baptist, preaching in the wilderness of Judaea, And saying, “Repent ye: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.”

For this is he that was spoken of by the prophet Esaias, saying, “The voice of one crying in the wilderness, ‘Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make his paths straight.’ Every valley shall be filled, and every mountain and hill shall be brought low; and the crooked shall be made straight, and the rough ways shall be made smooth; And all flesh shall see the salvation of God.”

John did baptize in the wilderness, and preach the baptism of repentance for the remission of sins.

And the same John had his raiment of camel's hair, and a leathern girdle about his loins; and his meat was locusts and wild honey.

Then went out to him Jerusalem, and all Judaea, and all the region round about Jordan, And were baptized of him in Jordan, confessing their sins.

But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees come to his baptism, he said unto them, “O generation of vipers, who hath warned you to flee from the wrath to come?”

“Bring forth therefore fruits meet for repentance: And think not to say within yourselves, ‘We have Abraham to our father:’ for I say unto you, that God is able of these stones to raise up children unto Abraham.”

“And now also the axe is laid unto the root of the trees: every tree therefore which bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.”

“I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance: but he that cometh after me is mightier than I, whose shoes I am not worthy to bear: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost, and with fire: Whose fan is in his hand, and he will throughly purge his floor, and gather his wheat into the garner; but he will burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire.”

And the people asked him, saying, “What shall we do then?”

He answereth and saith unto them, “He that hath two coats, let him impart to him that hath none; and he that hath meat, let him do likewise.”

Then came also publicans to be baptized, and said unto him, “Master, what shall we do?”

And he said unto them, “Exact no more than that which is appointed you.”

And the soldiers likewise demanded of him, saying, “And what shall we do?”

And he said unto them, “Do violence to no man, neither accuse any falsely; and be content with your wages.”

And as the people were in expectation, and all men mused in their hearts of John, whether he were the Christ, or not; John answered, saying unto them all, “I indeed baptize you with water; but one mightier than I cometh, the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to unloose: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost and with fire: Whose fan is in his hand, and he will throughly purge his floor, and will gather the wheat into his garner; but the chaff he will burn with fire unquenchable.”

And John preached, saying, “There cometh one mightier than I after me, the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to stoop down and unloose.”

“I indeed have baptized you with water: but he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost.”

And many other things in his exhortation preached he unto the people.

But Herod the tetrarch (not the Herod that was dead), being reproved by him for Herodias his brother Philip's wife, and for all the evils which Herod had done, Added yet this above all, that he shut up John in prison. (But John was not yet shut up in prison in those days.)

 

 

 

***The 10th day of the eleventh month***

***The fifth day of the week***

***Also, 02/02/30***

***And Jesus himself began to be about thirty years of age (or began his thirtieth year)***

 

 

And it came to pass in those days, that Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee to Jordan unto John, to be baptized of him.

But John forbad him, saying, “I have need to be baptized of thee, and comest thou to me?”

And Jesus answering said unto him, “Suffer it to be so now: for thus it becometh us to fulfil all righteousness.”

Then he suffered him. And Jesus was baptized of John in Jordan.

Now when all the people were baptized, it came to pass, that Jesus also being baptized, and praying, went up straightway out of the water: and the heaven was opened, and, lo, the heavens were opened unto him, and he saw the heavens opened. And the Holy Ghost descended in a bodily shape like a dove upon him, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove, and lighting upon him, and a voice came from heaven, which said, “Thou art my beloved Son; in whom I am well pleased.”

And immediately the spirit driveth him into the wilderness.

And lo a voice from heaven, saying, “This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.”

And John bare witness of him, and cried, saying, “This was he of whom I spake, He that cometh after me is preferred before me: for he was before me.”

And Jesus himself began to be about thirty years of age, being (as was supposed) the son of Joseph, which was the son of Heli.

And of his fulness have all we received, and grace for grace. For the law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ.

No man hath fathomed God at any time, the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared him.

9. Man Shall Not Live by Bread Alone

And Jesus being full of the Holy Ghost returned from Jordan, and was led by the Spirit into the wilderness, so was Jesus led up of the spirit into the wilderness to be tempted of some devil. Being forty days tempted of this devil. And in those days he did eat nothing: and when they were ended, And when he had fasted forty days and forty nights, he was afterward an hungred.

18. My Yoke Is Easy, and My Burden Is Light

And when he had called unto him his twelve disciples, he gave them power against unclean spirits, to cast them out, and to heal all manner of sickness and all manner of disease.

Now the names of the twelve apostles are these; The first, Simon, who is called Peter, and Andrew his brother; James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother; Philip, and Bartholomew; Thomas, and Matthew the publican; James the son of Alphaeus, and Lebbaeus, whose surname was Thaddaeus; Simon the Canaanite, and Judas Iscariot, who also betrayed him.

These twelve Jesus sent forth, and commanded them, saying, “As ye go, also preach, saying, ‘The kingdom of heaven is at hand.’”

“Heal the sick, cleanse the lepers, raise the dead, cast out devils: freely ye have received, freely give.”

“Provide neither gold, nor silver, nor brass in your purses, Nor scrip for your journey, neither two coats, neither shoes, nor yet staves: for the workman is worthy of his meat.”

“And ye shall be brought before governors and kings for my sake, for a testimony autoiV and the Gentiles.”

“But when they deliver you up, take no thought how or what ye shall speak: for it shall be given you in that same hour what ye shall speak. For it is not ye that speak, but the Spirit of your Father which speaketh in you.”

“But when they persecute you in this city, flee ye into another: for verily I say unto you, Ye shall not have gone over the cities of Israel, till the Son of man be come.”

“And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.”

“Whosoever therefore shall confess me before men, him will I confess also before my Father which is in heaven.”

And it came to pass, when Jesus had made an end of commanding his twelve disciples, he departed thence to teach and to preach in their cities.

 

 

 

0031 and 0032

 

***From the seventh month through the eighth, ninth, tenth, and eleventh months***

***Also, from September and October of 0031***

 

 

26. By Two and Two

And he called unto him the twelve, and began to send them forth by two and two; and gave them power over unclean spirits; and gave them power and authority over all devils, and to cure diseases. And he sent them to preach the kingdom of God, and to heal the sick.

And they went out, and preached that men should repent. And they cast out many devils, and anointed with oil many that were sick, and healed them. And they departed, and went through the towns, preaching the gospel, and healing every where.

40. Our Father Which Art in Heaven

So he cometh into the coasts of Judaea by the farther side of Jordan: and the people resort unto him again; and, as he was wont, he taught them again. And many resorted unto him, and said, “John did no miracle: but all things that John spake of this man were true.”

And great multitudes followed him; and he healed them there.

And many believed on him there.

And the Pharisees came to him, and asked him, “Is it lawful for a man to put away his wife?” tempting him.

And he answered and said unto them, “What did Moses command you?”

And they said, “Moses suffered to write a bill of divorcement, and to put her away.”

And Jesus answered and said unto them, “For the hardness of your heart he wrote you this precept; apo de archV creation God made them male and female.”

“What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.”

 

 

***The 14th day of the eleventh month***

***The second day of the week***

***Also, 02/02/33***

 

 

And it came to pass, that, as he was praying in a certain place, when he ceased, one of his disciples said unto him, “Lord, teach us to pray, as John also taught his disciples.”

And he said unto them, “When ye pray, say, ‘Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.’”

“‘Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done, as in heaven, so in earth.’”

“‘Give us day by day our daily bread.’”

“‘And forgive us our sins; for we also forgive every one that is indebted to us.’”

“‘And lead us not into temptation; but deliver us from evil.’”

“And I say unto you, ‘Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you. For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.’”

“‘If a son shall ask bread of any of you that is a father, will he give him a stone? or if he ask a fish, will he for a fish give him a serpent?’ Or if he shall ask an egg, will he offer him a scorpion?”

“If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children: how much more shall your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him?”

And it came to pass, as he spake these things, a certain woman of the company lifted up her voice, and said unto him, “Blessed is the womb that bare thee, and the paps which thou hast sucked.”

But he said, “Yea rather, blessed are they that hear the word of God, and keep it.”

And one of the company said unto him, “Master, speak to my brother, that he divide the inheritance with me.”

And he said unto him, “Man, who made me a judge or a divider over you?”

And he said unto them, “Take heed, and beware of covetousness: for the abundance of a man's life consisteth not in the things which he possesseth.”

And he said unto his disciples, “Therefore I say unto you, ‘Take no thought for your life, what ye shall eat; neither for the body, what ye shall put on. The life is more than meat, and the body is more than raiment.’”

“Consider the ravens: for they neither sow nor reap; which neither have storehouse nor barn; and God feedeth them: how much more are ye better than the fowls?”

“Consider the lilies how they grow: they toil not, they spin not; and yet I say unto you, that Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.”

“And your Father knoweth that ye have need of these things. But rather seek ye the kingdom of God; and all these things shall be added unto you.”

 

 

***The 19th day of the eleventh month***

***The sabbath day of the week***

***Also, 02/07/33***

 

 

And he was teaching in one of the synagogues on the sabbath.

And, behold, there was a woman which had a spirit of infirmity eighteen years, and was bowed together, and could in no wise lift up herself.

And when Jesus saw her, he called her to him, and said unto her, “Woman, thou art loosed from thine infirmity.”

And he laid his hands on her: and immediately she was made straight, and glorified God.

And the ruler of the synagogue answered with indignation, because that Jesus had healed on the sabbath day, and said unto the people, “There are six days in which men ought to work: in them therefore come and be healed, and not on the sabbath day.”

The Lord then answered him, and said, Doth not each one of you on the sabbath loose his ox or his ass from the stall, and lead him away to watering?”

“And ought not this woman, being a daughter of Abraham, whom o satanaV hath bound, lo, these eighteen years, be loosed from this bond on the sabbath day?”

And when he had said these things, all his adversaries were ashamed: and all the people rejoiced for all the glorious things that were done by him.

Then said he, “Unto what is the kingdom of God like? and whereunto shall I resemble it?”

“It is like a grain of mustard seed, which a man took, and cast into his garden; and it grew, and waxed a great dendron; and the fowls of the air lodged in the branches of it.”

And again he said, “Whereunto shall I liken the kingdom of God?”

“It is like leaven, which a woman took and hid in three measures of meal, till the whole was leavened.”

 

 

***The 28th day of the eleventh month***

***The second day of the week***

41. Lazarus, Come Forth

Now a certain man was sick, named Lazarus, of Bethany, the town of Mary and her sister Martha. (It was that Mary which anointed the Lord with ointment, and wiped his feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was sick.)

Therefore his sisters sent unto him, saying, “Lord, behold, he whom thou lovest is sick.”

When Jesus heard that, he said, “This sickness is not about death, but for the glory of God, that the Son of God might be glorified thereby.”

Now Jesus loved Martha, and her sister, and Lazarus.

But when he had heard that he was sick, he abode two days still in the same place where he was.
