1He arose from there and came into the borders of Judea [Praise] and beyond the Jordan [Descender]. Multitudes came together to him again. As he usually did, he was again teaching them.
2Pharisees [Separated] came to him testing him, and asked him, “Does the Torah ·Teaching· permit a man to divorce his wife?”
3He answered, “What did Moses [Drawn out] enjoin unto you?”
4They said, “Moses [Drawn out] allowed a certificate of divorce to be written , 34and to divorce her.”
5But Yeshua [Salvation] said to them, “For your hardness of heart, he wrote you this commandment.
6But from the beginning of the creation, God made them male and female. 35
7For this cause a man will leave his father and mother, and will join to his wife,
8and the two will become one flesh, so that they are no longer two, but one flesh. 36
9What therefore God has joined together, let no man separate.”
10In the house, his disciples asked him again about the same matter.
11He said to them, “Whoever divorces his wife, and marries another, commits moichao ·act of adultery· against her.
12If a woman herself divorces her husband, and marries another, she commits moichao ·act of adultery·.”
13They were bringing to him little children, that he should touch them, but the disciples rebuked those who were bringing them.
14But when Yeshua [Salvation] saw it, he was moved with indignation, and said to them, “Allow the little children to come to me! Don’t forbid them, for God’s Kingdom belongs to such as these.
15Most certainly I tell you, whoever will not receive God’s Kingdom like a little child, he will in no way enter into it.”
16He took them in his arms, and blessed them, laying his hands on them.
1737As he was going out into the way, one ran to him, knelt before him, and asked him, “Good Rabbi ·Teacher·, what shall I do that I may inherit eternal life?”
18Yeshua [Salvation] said to him, “Why do you call me good? No one is good except one— God’s Torah ·Teaching·. 38
19You know the mitzvot ·instructions·: ‘Do not murder,’ ‘Do not moicheuo ·commit adultery·,’ ‘Do not steal,’ ‘Do not give false testimony,’ ‘Do not defraud,’ ‘Honor your father and mother.’” 39
2040He said to him, “Rabbi ·Teacher·, I have observed all these things from my youth.”
21Looking at him, Yeshua [Salvation] felt agapao ·total devoted love· towards him, and said to him, “One thing you lack. Go, sell whatever you have, and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow me, taking up the execution-stake.”
22But his face fell at that saying, and he went away sorrowful, for he was one who had great possessions.
23Yeshua [Salvation] looked around, and said to his disciples, “How difficult it is for those who have riches to enter into God’s Kingdom!”
24The disciples were amazed at his words. But Yeshua [Salvation] answered again, “Children, how hard is it for those who trust in riches to enter into God’s Kingdom!
25It is easier for a camel to go through a needle’s eye (small door of city gate), than for a rich man to enter into God’s Kingdom.”
26They were exceedingly astonished, saying to him, “Then who can be saved?”
27Yeshua [Salvation], looking at them, said, “With men it is impossible, but not with God, for all things are possible with God.”
28Peter [Rock] began to tell him, “Behold, we have left all, and have followed you.”
29Yeshua [Salvation] said, “Most certainly I tell you, there is no one who has left house, or brothers, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or land, for my sake, and for the sake of the Good News,
30but he will receive one hundred times more now in this time, houses, brothers, sisters, mothers, children, and land, with persecutions; and in the age to come eternal life.
31But many who are first will be last; and the last first.”
32They were on the way, going up to Jerusalem [City of peace]; and Yeshua [Salvation] was going in front of them, and they were amazed; and those who followed were afraid. He again took the twelve, and began to tell them the things that were going to happen to him.
33“Behold, we are going up to Jerusalem [City of peace]. The Son of Man will be delivered to the chief priests and the Torah-Teachers. They will condemn him to death, and will deliver him to the Gentiles.
34They will mock him, spit on him, scourge him, 41and kill him. On the third day he will rise 42again.”
35James [Surplanter] and John [Yah is gracious], the sons of Zebedee [Bestowed by Yah], came near to him, saying, “Rabbi ·Teacher·, we want you to do for us whatever we will ask.”
36He said to them, “What do you want me to do for you?”
37They said to him, “Grant to us that we may sit, one at your right hand, and one at your left hand, in your glory.”
38But Yeshua [Salvation] said to them, “You don’t know what you are asking. Are you able to drink the cup that I drink, and to be immersed with the immersion that I am immersed with?”
39They said to him, “We are able.” Yeshua [Salvation] said to them, “You shall indeed drink the cup that I drink, and you shall be immersed with the immersion that I am immersed with;
40but to sit at my right hand and at my left hand is not mine to give, but for whom it has been prepared.”
41When the ten heard it, they began to be indignant towards James [Surplanter] and John [Yah is gracious].
42Yeshua [Salvation] summoned them, and said to them, “You know that they who are recognized as rulers over the nations lord it over them, and their great ones exercise authority over them.
43But it shall not be so among you, but whoever wants to become great among you shall be your servant.
44Whoever of you wants to become first among you, shall be bond-servant of all.
4543For the Son of Man also came not to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.”
46They came to Jericho [Fragrant, Moon]. As he went out from Jericho [Fragrant, Moon], with his disciples and a great multitude, 44Bartimaeus the son of Timaeus, a blind beggar, was sitting by the road.
47When he heard that it was Yeshua [Salvation] the Nazarene [person from Branch, Separated one], he began to cry out, and say, “Yeshua [Salvation], you son of David [Beloved], have mercy on me!”
48Many rebuked him, that he should be quiet, but he cried out much more, “You son of David [Beloved], have mercy on me!”
49Yeshua [Salvation] stood still, and said, “Call him.” They called the blind man, saying to him, “Cheer up! Get up. He is calling you!”
50He, casting away his cloak, sprang up, and came to Yeshua [Salvation].
51Yeshua [Salvation] asked him, “What do you want me to do for you?” The blind man said to him, “ Rabboni ·My teacher!· I want to see again.”
52Yeshua [Salvation] said to him, “Go your way. Your trusting faith has made you well.” Immediately he received his sight, and followed Yeshua [Salvation] on the way.
