006:004 how he entered the house of God and took and ate the Presented Loaves
and gave some to his followers--loaves which none but the Priests are allowed to eat?" 006:005 "The Son of Man," He added, "is Lord of the Sabbath also." 006:006 On another Sabbath He had gone to the synagogue and was teaching there; and in the congregation was a man whose right arm was withered. 006:007 The Scribes and the Pharisees were on the watch to see whether He would cure him on the Sabbath that they might be able to bring an accusation against Him. 006:008 He knew their thoughts, and said to the man with the withered arm, "Rise, and stand there in the middle." And he rose and stood there. 006:009 Then Jesus said to them, "I put it to you all whether we are allowed to do good on the Sabbath, or to do evil; to save a life, or to destroy it." 006:010 And looking round upon them all He said to the man, "Stretch out your arm." He did so, and the arm was restored. 006:011 But they were filled with madness, and began to discuss with one another what they should do to Jesus. 006:012 About that time He went out on one occasion into the hill country to pray; and He remained all night in prayer to God. 006:013 When it was day, He called His disciples; and He selected from among them twelve, whom He also named Apostles. 006:014 These were Simon, to whom also He had given the name of Peter, and Andrew his brother; James and John; Philip and Bartholomew; 006:015 Matthew and Thomas; James the son of Alphaeus and Simon called the Zealot; 006:016 James's relative Judas, and Judas Iscariot who proved to be a traitor. |
