Now Herod the tetrarch heard about everything that was happening, and he was thoroughly perplexed, because some people were saying that John had been raised from the dead,

They answered, “John the Baptist; others say Elijah; and still others that one of the prophets of long ago has risen.”

But I tell you most certainly, there are some standing here who will not experience death before they see the kingdom of God.”

Then a voice came from the cloud, saying, “This is my Son, my Chosen One. Listen to him!”

After the voice had spoken, Jesus was found alone. So they kept silent and told no one at that time anything of what they had seen.

Then they were all astonished at the mighty power of God.But while the entire crowd was amazed at everything Jesus was doing, he said to his disciples,

Then the seventy-two returned with joy, saying, “Lord, even the demons submit to us in your name!”

Nevertheless, do not rejoice that the spirits submit to you, but rejoice that your names stand written in heaven.”

She had a sister named Mary, who sat at the Lord’s feet and listened to what he said.

Now he was casting out a demon that was mute. When the demon had gone out, the man who had been mute began to speak, and the crowds were amazed.

“I tell you, my friends, do not be afraid of those who kill the body, and after that have nothing more they can do.

But when they bring you before the synagogues, the rulers, and the authorities, do not worry about how you should make your defense or what you should say,

Then someone from the crowd said to him, “Teacher, tell my brother to divide the inheritance with me.”

Then he said, ‘I will do this: I will tear down my barns and build bigger ones, and there I will store all my grain and my goods.

But God said to him, ‘You fool! This very night your life will be demanded back from you, but who will get what you have prepared for yourself?’

Now one Sabbath when Jesus went to dine at the house of a leader of the Pharisees, they were watching him closely.

So Jesus asked the experts in religious law and the Pharisees, “Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath or not?”

When one of those at the meal with Jesus heard this, he said to him, “Blessed is everyone who will feast in the kingdom of God!”

So he went and worked for one of the citizens of that country, who sent him to his fields to feed pigs.
