The expert in the law said to him, &#8220;That is true, Teacher; you are right to say that <b><i>he is one, and there is no one else besides himi>b>.<n id="1" />

<p class="bodyblock">If David himself calls him &#8216;Lord,&#8217; how can he be his son?&#8221;<n id="1" /> And the large crowd was listening to him with delight.p>

<t /><p class="bodytext">In his teaching Jesus<n id="1" /> also said, &#8220;Watch out for the experts in the law.<n id="2" /> They like walking<n id="3" /> around in long robes and elaborate greetings<n id="4" /> in the marketplaces,

<t /><p class="bodytext">Now<n id="1" /> as Jesus<n id="2" /> was going out of the temple courts, one of his disciples said to him, &#8220;Teacher, look at these tremendous stones and buildings!&#8221;<n id="3" />

I tell you the truth,<n id="1" /> wherever the gospel is proclaimed in the whole world, what she has done will also be told in memory of her.&#8221;p>

While they were at the table<n id="1" /> eating, Jesus said, &#8220;I tell you the truth,<n id="2" /> one of you eating with me will betray me.&#8221;<n id="3" />

<t /><p class="bodytext">Then<n id="1" /> Jesus said to them, &#8220;You will all fall away, for it is written,p> <p class="otpoetry">&#8216;<b><i>I will strike the shepherd,i>b>p> <p class="otpoetry"><i><b>and the sheep will be scatteredb>.i>&#8217;<n id="2" />p>

But Peter<n id="1" /> insisted emphatically,<n id="2" /> &#8220;Even if I must die with you, I will never deny you.&#8221; And all of them said the same thing.p>

<t /><p class="bodytext">Then<n id="1" /> they went to a place called Gethsemane, and Jesus<n id="2" /> said to his disciples, &#8220;Sit here while I pray.&#8221;

He said, &#8220;Abba,<n id="1" /> Father, all things are possible for you. Take this cup<n id="2" /> away from me. Yet not what I will, but what you will.&#8221;

Then<n id="1" /> he came and found them sleeping, and said to Peter, &#8220;Simon, are you sleeping? Couldn&#8217;t you stay awake for one hour?

(Now the betrayer<n id="1" /> had given them a sign, saying, &#8220;The one I kiss is the man. Arrest him and lead him away under guard.&#8221;)<n id="2" />

&#8220;We heard him say, &#8216;I will destroy this temple made with hands and in three days build another not made with hands.&#8217;&#8221;

Then<n id="1" /> the high priest stood up before them<n id="2" /> and asked Jesus, &#8220;Have you no answer? What is this that they are testifying against you?&#8221;

When she saw Peter warming himself, she looked directly at him and said, &#8220;You also were with that Nazarene, Jesus.&#8221;

But he denied it again. A short time later the bystanders again said to Peter, &#8220;You must be<n id="1" /> one of them, because you are also a Galilean.&#8221;

Those who passed by defamed him, shaking their heads and saying, &#8220;Aha! You who can destroy the temple and rebuild it in three days,

In the same way even the chief priests &#8211; together with the experts in the law<n id="1" /> &#8211; were mocking him among themselves:<n id="2" /> &#8220;He saved others, but he cannot save himself!

Then someone ran, filled a sponge with sour wine,<n id="1" /> put it on a stick,<n id="2" /> and gave it to him to drink, saying, &#8220;Leave him alone! Let&#8217;s see if Elijah will come to take him down!&#8221;

Then<n id="1" /> they went out and ran from the tomb, for terror and bewilderment had seized them.<n id="2" /> And they said nothing to anyone, because they were afraid.p>
