baskets did you carry away full of broken portions?"
"Twelve," they said. 008:020 "And when the seven for the 4,000, how many hampers full of portions did you take away?" "Seven," they answered. 008:021 "Do you not yet understand?" He said. 008:022 And they came to Bethsaida. And a blind man was brought to Jesus and they entreated Him to touch him. 008:023 So He took the blind man by the arm and brought him out of the village, and spitting into his eyes He put His hands on him and asked him, "Can you see anything?" 008:024 He looked up and said, "I can see the people: I see them like trees--only walking." 008:025 Then for the second time He put His hands on the man's eyes, and the man, looking steadily, recovered his sight and saw everything distinctly. 008:026 So He sent him home, and added, "Do not even go into the village." 008:027 From that place Jesus and His disciples went to the villages belonging to Caesarea Philippi. On the way He began to ask His disciples, "Who do people say that I am?" 008:028 "John the Baptist," they replied, "but others say Elijah, and others, that it is one of the Prophets." 008:029 Then He asked them pointedly, "But you yourselves, who do you say that I am?" "You are the Christ," answered Peter. 008:030 And He strictly forbad them to tell this about Him to any one. 008:031 And now for the first time He told them, "The Son of Man must endure much suffering, and be rejected by the Elders and the High Priests and the Scribes, and be put to death, and after two days rise to life." 008:032 This He told them plainly; whereupon Peter took Him and began to remonstrate with Him. |
