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.

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.

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.

6. Flee
And when
the Magi were departed, behold, the angel of the Lord appeareth to Joseph in a dream, saying, “Arise, and take the young child and his mother, and flee into Egypt, and be thou there until I bring thee word: for Herod will seek the young child to destroy him.”When he arose, he took the young child and his mother by night, and departed into Egypt: And was there until the death of Herod: that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying, “Out of Egypt have I called my son.”

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, eleventh and twelfth 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.

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.
***The 1st day of the twelfth month***
***The fourth day of the week***
***Also, 02/18/33***
Then after that saith he to his disciples,
“Let us go into Judaea again.”His disciples say unto him, “Master, the Jews of late sought to stone thee; and goest thou thither again?”
Jesus answered,
“Our friend Lazarus sleepeth; but I go, that I may awake him out of sleep.”Then said his disciples, “Lord, if he sleep, he shall do well.”
Howbeit Jesus spake of his death: but they thought that he had spoken of taking of rest in sleep.
Then said Jesus unto them plainly,
“Lazarus is dead.”“And I am glad for your sakes that I was not there, to the intent ye may believe; nevertheless let us go unto him.”
Then said Thomas, which is called Didymus, unto his fellowdisciples, “Let us also go, that we may die with him.”
And he went through the cities and villages, teaching, and journeying toward Jerusalem,
for Bethany was nigh unto Jerusalem
***The 4th day of the twelfth month***
***The sabbath day of the week***
***Also, 02/21/33***
And it came to pass, as he went into the house of one of the chief Pharisees to eat bread on the sabbath day, that they watched him.
And, behold, there was a certain man before him which had the dropsy.
And Jesus answering spake unto the lawyers and Pharisees, saying,
“Is it lawful to heal on the sabbath day?”And they held their peace.
And he took him, and healed him, and let him go; And answered them, saying,
“Which of you shall have an ass or an ox fallen into a pit, and will not straightway pull him out on the sabbath day?”And they could not answer him again to these things.
And when one of them that sat at meat with him heard these things, he said unto him, “Blessed is he that shall eat bread in the kingdom of God.”
Then said he unto him,
“A certain man made a great supper, and bade many: And sent his servant at supper time to say to them that were bidden, ‘Come; for all things are now ready.’”“And they all with one consent began to make excuse.”
“The first said unto him, ‘I have bought a piece of ground, and I must needs go and see it: I pray thee have me excused.’”
“And another said, ‘I have bought five yoke of oxen, and I go to prove them: I pray thee have me excused.’”
“And another said, ‘I have married a wife, and therefore I cannot come.’”
“So that servant came, and shewed 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 hither the poor, and the maimed, and the halt, and the blind.’”
“And the servant said, ‘Lord, it is done as thou hast commanded, and yet there is room.’”
“And the lord said unto the servant, ‘Go out into the highways and hedges, and compel them to come in, that my house may be filled. For I say unto you, That none of those men which were bidden shall taste of my supper.’”
Then drew near unto him all the publicans and sinners for to hear him.
And the Pharisees and scribes murmured, saying, “This man receiveth sinners, and eateth with them.”
And he spake this parable unto them, saying,
“A certain man had two sons: And the younger of them said to his father, ‘Father, give me the portion of goods that falleth to me.’”“And he divided unto them his living.”
“And not many days after the younger son gathered all together, and took his journey into a far country, and there wasted his substance with riotous living.”
“And when he had spent all, there arose a mighty famine in that land; and he began to be in want.”
“And he went and joined himself to a citizen of that country; and he sent him into his fields to feed swine.”
“And he would fain have filled his belly with the husks that the swine did eat: and no man gave unto him.”
“And when he came to himself, he said, ‘How many hired servants of my father's have bread enough and to spare, and I perish with hunger! I will arise and go to my father, and will say unto him, ‘Father, I have sinned against heaven, and before thee, And am no more worthy to be called thy son: make me as one of thy hired servants.’’”
“And he arose, and came to his father.”
“But when he was yet a great way off, his father saw him, and had compassion, and ran, and fell on his neck, and kissed him.”
“And the son said unto him, ‘Father, I have sinned against heaven, and in thy sight, and am no more worthy to be called thy son.’”
“But the father said to his servants, ‘Bring forth the best robe, and put it on him; and put a ring on his hand, and shoes on his feet: And bring hither the fatted calf, and kill it; and let us eat, and be merry: For this my son was dead, and is alive again; he was lost, and is found.’”
“And they began to be merry.”
“Now his elder son was in the field: and as he came and drew nigh to the house, he heard musick and dancing. And he called one of the servants, and asked what these things meant.”
“And he said unto him, ‘Thy brother is come; and thy father hath killed the fatted calf, because he hath received him safe and sound.’”
“And he was angry, and would not go in: therefore came his father out, and intreated him.”
“And he answering said to his father, ‘Lo, these many years do I serve thee, neither transgressed I at any time thy commandment: and yet thou never gavest me a kid, that I might make merry with my friends: But as soon as this thy son was come, which hath devoured thy living with harlots, thou hast killed for him the fatted calf.’”
“And he said unto him, ‘Son, thou art ever with me, and all that I have is thine.’”
“‘It was meet that we should make merry, and be glad: for this thy brother was dead, and is alive again; and was lost, and is found.’”
And the Pharisees also, who were covetous, heard all these things: and they derided him.
And he said unto them,
“There was a certain rich man, which was clothed in purple and fine linen, and fared sumptuously every day: And there was a certain beggar named Lazarus, which was laid at his gate.”“And it came to pass, that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels into Abraham's bosom: the rich man also died, and was buried; And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom.”
“And he cried and said, ‘Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame.’”
“But Abraham said, ‘Son, remember that thou in thy lifetime receivedst thy good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things: but now he is comforted, and thou art tormented.’”
“‘And beside all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed: so that they which would pass from hence to you cannot; neither can they pass to us, that would come from thence.’”
“Then he said, ‘I pray thee therefore, father, that thou wouldest send him to my father's house: For I have five brethren; that he may testify unto them, lest they also come into this place of torment.’”
“Abraham saith unto him, ‘They have Moses and the prophets; let them hear them.’”
“And he said, ‘Nay, father Abraham: but if one went unto them from the dead, they will repent.’”
“And he said unto him, ‘If they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded, though one rose from the dead.’”
