Then they brought to him a demon-possessed man who was blind and mute. Jesus healed him so that he could speak and see.

When he found a pearl of great value, he went out and sold everything he had and bought it.

They begged him if they could only touch the edge of his cloak, and all who touched it were healed.

Now when the Pharisees and Sadducees came to test Jesus, they asked him to show them a sign from heaven.

The lord had compassion on that slave and released him, and forgave him the debt.

Then his fellow slave threw himself down and begged him, ‘Be patient with me, and I will repay you.’

But he refused. Instead, he went out and threw him in prison until he repaid the debt.

And in anger his lord turned him over to the prison guards to torture him until he repaid all he owed.

The one who falls on this stone will be broken to pieces, and the one on whom it falls will be crushed.”

The same day Sadducees (who say there is no resurrection) came to him and asked him,

No one was able to answer him a word, and from that day on no one dared to question him any longer.

And whoever swears by the temple swears by it and the one who dwells in it.

So leaving them again, he went away and prayed for the third time, saying the same thing once more.

The chief priests and the whole Sanhedrin were trying to find false testimony against Jesus so that they could put him to death.

They spat on him and took the staff and struck him repeatedly on the head.

He trusts in God – let God, if he wants to, deliver him now because he said, ‘I am God’s Son’!”

telling them, “You are to say, ‘His disciples came at night and stole his body while we were asleep.’

But John tried to prevent him, saying, “I need to be baptized by you, and yet you come to me?”

So Jesus replied to him, “Let it happen now, for it is right for us to fulfill all righteousness.” Then John yielded to him.

Again, the devil took him to a very high mountain, and showed him all the kingdoms of the world and their grandeur.
