On the third day they found him — he was sitting in the Temple court among the rabbis, not only listening to them but questioning what they said;

But they didn't understand what he meant.

So he went with them to Natzeret and was obedient to them. But his mother stored up all these things in her heart.

so Yochanan answered them all, "I am immersing you in water, but he who is coming is more powerful than I — I'm not worthy to untie his sandals! He will immerse you in the Ruach HaKodesh and in fire.

He has with him his winnowing fork to clear out his threshing floor and gather his wheat into his barn, but he will burn up the straw with unquenchable fire!"

But Yochanan also denounced Herod the regional governor for taking as his own wife Herodias, the wife of his brother, and for all the other wicked things Herod had done;

but Eliyahu was sent to none of them, only to a widow in Tzarfat in the land of Tzidon.

Also there were many people with tzara‘at in Isra'el during the time of the prophet Elisha; but not one of them was healed, only Na‘aman the Syrian."

But he walked right through the middle of the crowd and went away.

But Yeshua rebuked it: "Be quiet, and come out of him!" The demonic spirit threw the man down in the middle of the crowd and came out of him, having done him no harm.

also demons came out of many, crying, "You are the Son of God!" But, rebuking them, he did not permit them to say that they knew he was the Messiah.

But he said to them, "I must announce the Good News of the Kingdom of God to the other towns too — this is why I was sent."

Shim‘on answered, "We've worked hard all night long, Rabbi, and haven't caught a thing! But if you say so, I'll let down the nets."

But the news about Yeshua kept spreading all the more, so that huge crowds would gather to listen and be healed of their sicknesses.

but they couldn't find a way to get him in because of the crowd. So they went up onto the roof and lowered him on his mattress through the tiles into the middle of the gathering, right in front of Yeshua.

But Yeshua, knowing what they were thinking, answered, "Why are you turning over such thoughts in your hearts?

But look! I will prove to you that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins." He then said to the paralytic, "I say to you: get up, pick up your mattress and go home!"

It was Yeshua who answered them: "The ones who need a doctor aren't the healthy but the sick.

I have not come to call the ‘righteous,' but rather to call sinners to turn to God from their sins."

Next they said to him, "Yochanan's talmidim are always fasting and davvening, and likewise the talmidim of the P'rushim; but yours go on eating and drinking."
