|
\subsubsection{The Triumphal Entry}
|
|
\VS{1} And when they drew near to Jerusalem and came to \Bethphage to the Mount of
|
|
Olives, then \Iesous sent two disciples,
|
|
\VS{2} Saying to them, Be going into
|
|
the village opposite you and immediately you will find [an] ass tied and [a] colt
|
|
with her. Having loosed [them] bring [them] to me.
|
|
\VS{3} And if anyone say anything to
|
|
you, say that: The Lord has need of them. And immediately he sent them.
|
|
\VS{4} And this is come to pass in order that what was spoken through the
|
|
prophet be fulfilled when he says:
|
|
|
|
\begin{verse}
|
|
\VS{5} Say to the daughter of Zion \\
|
|
Behold her king comes to her \\
|
|
Gentle and riding on [an] ass \\
|
|
And upon [a] colt, the foal of [an] ass.
|
|
\end{verse}
|
|
|
|
\VS{6} And the disciples having gone and having done as \Iesous directed them,
|
|
\VS{7} they brought the ass and the colt, and placed on them their garments,
|
|
and he sat upon them.
|
|
\VS{8} And [a] very great crowd spread their garments in
|
|
the way, others cut branches from the trees and
|
|
spread them in the way.
|
|
\VS{9} And the crowd going before him and following
|
|
were crying out saying\footnote{Ps.118:25--26}:
|
|
|
|
\begin{verse}
|
|
Hosanna\footnote{Hebrew: ``Help'' or ``Save I pray''} to the son of \David
|
|
\\
|
|
Blessed is he coming in the name of [the] Lord \\
|
|
Hosanna in the highest.
|
|
\end{verse}
|
|
|
|
\VS{10} And when he entered into Jerusalem the entire city shook saying: Who
|
|
is this?
|
|
\VS{11} And the crowd was saying: This is the prophet \Iesous from
|
|
\Nazareth of \Galilee.
|
|
|
|
\subsubsection{Cleansing the Temple}
|
|
\VS{12} And \Iesous entered into the temple, and threw out all those selling
|
|
and buying in the temple, and he overturned the tables of the moneychangers
|
|
and the seats of those selling doves,
|
|
\VS{13} And he says to them: It is
|
|
written: My house will be called [a] house of prayer, but you make it [a] den of
|
|
thieves.
|
|
|
|
\VS{14} And the blind and lame came to him in the temple, and he
|
|
healed them.
|
|
\VS{15} But when the chief priests and the scribes saw the
|
|
wonders that he did and the children crying out in the temple and saying:
|
|
Hosanna to the son of \David, they were indignant,
|
|
\VS{16} and said to him:
|
|
Do you hear what these say? And \Iesous says to them: Yes, Have you never read
|
|
that\footnote{Ps.8:2}:
|
|
|
|
\begin{verse}
|
|
Out of the mouth of babes and nursing infants I will prepare praise?
|
|
\end{verse}
|
|
|
|
\VS{17} And leaving them he went out of the city to \Bethania and lodged
|
|
there.
|
|
|
|
\subsubsection{The Withered Fig Tree}
|
|
\VS{18} Now returning to the city early, he hungered.
|
|
\VS{19} And seeing one
|
|
fig tree on the road he came to it, and found nothing on it except leaves
|
|
only, and he says to it: No longer shall fruit grow on you for eternity. And
|
|
immediately the fig tree withered.
|
|
\VS{20} And when the disciples saw they marveled saying: How is the fig tree immediately withered?
|
|
\VS{21} \Iesous answering said to them: Truly I say to you, If you have belief and do not
|
|
doubt, not only this of the fig tree will you do, but if you say to this
|
|
mountain: Be taken and be thrown into the sea, it will come to pass.
|
|
\VS{22} And everything that you ask in prayer, believing, you will receive.
|
|
|
|
\subsubsection{The Authority of \Iesous}
|
|
\VS{23} And when he came into the temple, while he was teaching the chief
|
|
priests and the elders of the people came to him saying: By what authority
|
|
do you do these things? And who gave this authority to you?
|
|
\VS{24} And answering \Iesous said to them: And I will ask you one question that if you
|
|
tell me, I also will tell you by what authority I do these things:
|
|
\VS{25} Whence was \John the Baptist? From heaven or from men? And they considered
|
|
among themselves saying: If we say: From heaven, he will say to us: Why then
|
|
did you not believe him?
|
|
\VS{26} But if we say: From man, we fear the crowd,
|
|
for all hold \John as prophet.
|
|
\VS{27} And answering \Iesous they said: We do
|
|
not know. And he says to them: Neither do I tell you by what authority I do
|
|
these [things].
|
|
|
|
\subsubsection{The Parable of the Two Sons}
|
|
\VS{28} But how does it seem to you? [a] man had two sons. Coming to
|
|
the first he said: Son, be going today, be working in the vineyard.
|
|
\VS{29} But answering he says: I will not, but later repenting he went.
|
|
\VS{30}
|
|
Coming to the second he said likewise. And answering he said: I will Lord,
|
|
and went not.
|
|
\VS{31} Which of the two did the will of his father? They say:
|
|
The first. \Iesous says to them: Truly I say to you that the tax-collectors
|
|
and the harlots will precede you into the Kingdom of God.
|
|
\VS{32} For \John
|
|
came to you in the way of justice and you believed him not, but the
|
|
tax-collectors and the harlots believed him. But you when you saw neither
|
|
repented later that [You] might believe in him.
|
|
|
|
\subsubsection{The Parable of the Tenants}
|
|
\VS{33} Hear another parable.
|
|
[There was a] man [who] was Lord of the house who planted a vineyard and built [a] fence around it, and dug [a] winepress in it and built [a] tower and leased it to vinedressers and went on [a] journey.
|
|
\VS{34} Now when the time\fnKairos{} of the fruits drew near, he
|
|
sent his slaves to the vinedressers to be taking his fruit.
|
|
\VS{35} And taking his slaves the vinedressers beat one and killed another and stoned
|
|
another.
|
|
\VS{36} Again he sent other slaves more than the first, and they
|
|
did to them likewise.
|
|
\VS{37} And later he sent to them his son saying: They
|
|
will respect my son.
|
|
\VS{38} But the vinedressers seeing the son said among
|
|
themselves: This is the heir. Come let us kill him and we will have his
|
|
inheritance.
|
|
\VS{39} And taking him they threw him out of the vineyard and
|
|
killed [him].
|
|
\VS{40} When therefore the Lord of the vineyard comes, what will he
|
|
do to those vinedressers?
|
|
\VS{41} They say to him: He will badly destroy
|
|
those evil [ones], and he will lease the vineyard to other vinedressers, who give
|
|
him the fruits in their own seasons\fnKairos{}.
|
|
\VS{42} \Iesous says to them: Have you never read in the scriptures\footnote{Ps.118:22}:
|
|
|
|
\begin{verse}
|
|
The stone that the builders rejected \\
|
|
This became the head of the cornerstones. \\
|
|
By the Lord this came to pass \\
|
|
And is a wonder in our eyes.
|
|
\end{verse}
|
|
|
|
\VS{43} Because of this I say to you that the Kingdom of God shall be taken
|
|
from you and given to [a] nation producing the fruits of it.
|
|
\VS{44} And the
|
|
[one] falling on this stone will be dashed to pieces, and upon whom it falls, it
|
|
will crush him.\footnote{include vs 44: \sinaiticus{}BW \koine{} \vulgate{}; omit vs 44: D}
|
|
\VS{45} And when the chief priests and the scribes heard his parable they
|
|
knew that he speaks concerning them.
|
|
\VS{46} And though seeking to lay hold
|
|
of him, they feared the crowds, because they were holding him as prophet.
