\subsection{\Matthew 4}
|
|
\subsubsection{The Temptation of \Iesous}
|
|
\VS{1} Then \Iesous was led into the wilderness by the spirit to be tested by the
|
|
devil.
|
|
\VS{2} And having fasted forty days and forty nights, he was
|
|
afterwards hungry.
|
|
\VS{3} And the [one] testing him having come, he said to him:
|
|
If you are [the] Son of God, speak in order that these stones become bread.
|
|
\VS{4} But answering he said: It is written\footnote{ Deut. 8:3}:
|
|
|
|
\begin{verse}
|
|
Not on bread alone does man zoe-live\fnZoe{}, but [also] on every word proceeding out of the mouth of God.
|
|
\end{verse}
|
|
|
|
\VS{5} Then the devil takes him to the holy city, and placed him on the
|
|
pinnacle of the temple.
|
|
\VS{6} And he says to him: If you are [the] Son of God,
|
|
throw yourself down, for it is written\footnote{ Ps.91:11-12, but note the
|
|
whole passage: ``For He shall give His angels charge over thee, To keep thee
|
|
in all thy ways. They shall bear thee up in their hands, Lest thou dash thy
|
|
foot against a stone.'' [KJV]} that:
|
|
|
|
\begin{verse}
|
|
He will command his angels concerning you \\
|
|
And in their hands they will carry you \\
|
|
Lest you dash your foot against [a] stone.
|
|
\end{verse}
|
|
|
|
\VS{7} \Iesous said to him: Again it is written\footnote{ Deut. 8:3}:
|
|
|
|
\begin{verse}
|
|
You will not test [the] Lord your God.
|
|
\end{verse}
|
|
|
|
\VS{8} Again the devil takes him to [a] very high mountain, and shows to him
|
|
all the kingdoms of the world and their glory,
|
|
\VS{9} and says to him: All
|
|
these I will give to you if, having fallen [down], you will worship me.
|
|
\VS{10} Then \Iesous says to him: Be departing\footnote{``Be departing'' \sinaiticus{}BW \vulgate{} ;
|
|
``Be departing behind me'' D\koine{}}, \Satan, for it is written\footnote{ Deut. 11:3--4}:
|
|
|
|
\begin{verse}
|
|
You will worship [the] Lord your God and to him only will you serve.
|
|
\end{verse}
|
|
|
|
\VS{11} Then the devil left him, and behold angels came and served him.
|
|
|
|
\subsubsection{Preaching in \Galilee}
|
|
\VS{12} But having heard that \John had been delivered up, he withdrew into
|
|
\Galilee.
|
|
\VS{13} And having left \Nazareth, having come he dwelt in \Kapernaoum
|
|
by the sea in the environs of Zebulun and Nephtali,
|
|
\VS{14} in order that
|
|
what was said through Isaiah the prophet be fulfilled saying\footnote{Isa.9:1,2}:
|
|
|
|
\begin{verse}
|
|
\VS{15} Land of Zebulun and land of Naphtali, \\
|
|
Of the nations, \\
|
|
road of the sea, \\
|
|
Across the \Jordan, \Galilee: \\
|
|
\VS{16} The people sitting in darkness saw [a] great light, \\
|
|
And to those sitting in the land and darkness of death [a] light has arisen for
|
|
them.
|
|
\end{verse}
|
|
|
|
\VS{17} From then on \Iesous began preaching and saying: Be repenting, for the
|
|
kingdom of the heavens is at hand.
|
|
|
|
\subsubsection{The Call of the Disciples}
|
|
\VS{18} So walking by the sea of \Galilee he saw two brothers, \Simon the
|
|
[one] called \Petros and \Andrew his brother, throwing [a] net into the sea, for they
|
|
were fishermen.
|
|
\VS{19} And he says to them: Come after me, and I will make
|
|
you fishers of men.
|
|
\VS{20} And immediately having left their nets, they
|
|
followed him.
|
|
\VS{21} And proceeding on from there they saw another two
|
|
brothers, \Jacob\fnJacob{} the son of \Zebedee and \John his brother in [their] boat with
|
|
\Zebedee their father repairing their nets, and he called them.
|
|
\VS{22} And
|
|
immediately having left their nets and father, they followed him.
|
|
|
|
\subsubsection{\Iesous' Healing Ministry}
|
|
\VS{23} And he went around in all of \Galilee, teaching in their synagogues
|
|
and preaching the good-news of the kingdom and healing all sickness and all
|
|
weakliness among the people.
|
|
\VS{24} And the report of him came into all
|
|
Syria, and brought to him were all those having [it] evil-ly: those afflicted by
|
|
various sicknesses and torments, those demon possessed and those lunatic,
|
|
and those paralytic, and he healed them.
|
|
\VS{25} And great multitudes from
|
|
\Galilee and Decapolis\footnote{i.e. ``The Ten Cities.'' Decapolis is the name
|
|
given in the Bible and by ancient writers to a region in Palestine lying to
|
|
the east and south of the Sea of \Galilee. It took its name from the
|
|
confederation of ten cities that dominated the area.} and Jerusalem and
|
|
\\Judea and from across the \Jordan followed him.
