He called the twelve together, and gave them power and authority over all demons, and to cure diseases.
He sent them out to preach God’s Kingdom and to heal the sick.

He said to them, “Take nothing for your journey— neither staffs, nor wallet, nor bread, nor money; neither have two coats apiece.
Into whatever house you enter, stay there, and depart from there.

As many as don’t receive you, when you depart from that city, shake off even the dust from your feet for a testimony against them.”
They departed, and went throughout the villages, preaching the Good News, and healing everywhere.

Now Herod [Heroic] the tetrarch (one of four co-emperors) heard of all that was done by him; and he was very perplexed, because it was said by some that John [Yah is gracious] had risen from the dead,

Herod [Heroic] said, “John [Yah is gracious] I beheaded, but who is this, about whom I hear such things?” He sought to see him.

The apostles, when they had teshuvah ·completely returned·, told him what things they had done. He took them, and withdrew apart to a deserted place of a city called Bethsaida.

But the multitudes, perceiving it, followed him. He welcomed them, and spoke to them of God’s Kingdom, and he cured those who needed healing.

The day began to wear away; and the twelve came, and said to him, “Send the multitude away, that they may go into the surrounding villages and farms, and lodge, and get food, for we are here in a deserted place.”

But he said to them, “You give them something to eat.” They said, “We have no more than five loaves and two fish, unless we should go and buy food for all these people.”
For they were about five thousand men. He said to his disciples, “Make them sit down in groups of about fifty each.”
They did so, and made them all sit down.

He took the five loaves and the two fish, and looking up to the sky, he blessed them, and broke them, and gave them to the disciples to set before the multitude.
They ate, and were all filled. They gathered up twelve baskets of broken pieces that were left over.

As he was praying alone, the disciples were with him, and he asked them, “Who do the multitudes say that I am?”

They answered, “‘John [Yah is gracious] the Immerser,’ but others say, ‘Elijah [My God Yah],’ and others, that one of the old prophets is risen again.”
He said to them, “But who do you say that I am?” Peter [Rock] answered, “The Messiah [Anointed one] of God.”
But he warned them, and commanded them to tell this to no one,

He said to all, “If anyone desires to come after me, let him deny himself, take up his execution-stake, and follow me.
For whoever desires to save his life will lose it, but whoever will lose his life for my sake, the same will save it.
For what does it profit a man if he gains the whole world, and loses or forfeits his own self?

About eight days after these sayings, he took with him Peter [Rock], John [Yah is gracious], and James [Surplanter], and went up onto the mountain to pray.
As he was praying, the appearance of his face was altered, and his clothing became white and dazzling.
Behold, two men were talking with him, who were Moses [Drawn out] and Elijah [My God Yah],
who appeared in glory, and spoke of his departure, which he was about to accomplish at Jerusalem [City of peace].

Now Peter [Rock] and those who were with him were heavy with sleep, but when they were fully awake, they saw his glory, and the two men who stood with him.

As they were parting from him, Peter [Rock] said to Yeshua [Salvation], “Rabbi ·Teacher·, it is good for us to be here. Let’s make three tents: one for you, and one for Moses [Drawn out], and one for Elijah [My God Yah],” not knowing what he said.
34 ⲗ̅ⲇ̅ ⲛⲁⲓ ⲇⲉ ⲉϥϫⲱ ⲙⲙⲟⲟⲩ ⲁⲩⲕⲗⲟⲟⲗⲉ ϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲁⲥⲣϩⲁⲓⲃⲉⲥ ⲉⲣⲟⲟⲩ ⲁⲩⲣ ϩⲟⲧⲉ ⲇⲉ ϩⲙ ⲡⲧⲣⲉⲛ ⲉⲧⲙⲙⲁⲩ ⲃⲱⲕ ⲉϩⲟⲩⲛ ⲉⲧⲉⲕⲗⲟⲟⲗⲉ
While he said these things, a cloud came and overshadowed them, and they were afraid as they entered into the cloud.
A voice came out of the cloud, saying, “This is my beloved Son. Listen to him!”
36 ⲗ̅ⲋ̅ ⲧⲉⲥⲙⲏ ⲇⲉ ϣⲱⲡⲉ ⲁⲩϩⲉ ⲉⲓⲏⲥ ⲙⲁⲩⲁⲁϥ ⲛⲧⲟⲟⲩ ⲇⲉ ⲁⲩⲕⲁⲣⲱⲟⲩ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲙⲡⲟⲩⲧⲁⲙⲉⲗⲁⲁⲩ ϩⲛ ⲛⲉϩⲟⲟⲩ ⲉⲧⲙⲙⲁⲩ ⲉⲗⲁⲁⲩ ⲛⲛⲉⲛⲧⲁⲩⲛⲁⲩ ⲉⲣⲟⲟⲩ
When the voice came, Yeshua [Salvation] was found alone. They were silent, and told no one in those days any of the things which they had seen.
On the next day, when they had come down from the mountain, a great multitude met him.

Behold, a man from the crowd called out, saying, “Rabbi ·Teacher·, I beg you to look at my son, for he is my only child.

Behold, a spirit takes him, he suddenly cries out, and it convulses him so that he foams, and it hardly departs from him, bruising him severely.
I begged your disciples to cast it out, and they couldn’t.”

Yeshua [Salvation] answered, “Faithless and perverse generation, how long shall I be with you and bear with you? Bring your son here.”
42 ⲙ̅ⲃ̅ ⲉⲧⲓ ⲇⲉ ⲉϥϯ ⲙⲡⲉϥⲟⲩⲟⲓ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲁϥⲣⲁϩⲧϥ ⲛϭⲓ ⲡⲇⲁⲓⲙⲱⲛⲓⲟⲛ ⲁϥϩⲓⲧⲉ ⲙⲙⲟϥ ⲓⲏⲥ ⲇⲉ ⲁϥⲉⲡⲓⲧⲓⲙⲁ ⲙⲡⲉⲡⲛⲁ ⲛⲁⲕⲁⲑⲁⲣⲧⲟⲛ ⲁϥⲧⲁⲗϭⲉⲡϣⲏⲣⲉ ϣⲏⲙ ⲁϥⲧⲁⲁϥ ⲙⲡⲉϥⲓⲱⲧ
While he was still coming, the demon threw him down and convulsed him violently. But Yeshua [Salvation] rebuked the unclean spirit, and healed the boy, and gave him back to his father.

They were all astonished at the majesty of God. But while all were marveling at all the things which Yeshua [Salvation] did, he said to his disciples,
“Let these words sink into your ears, for the Son of Man will be delivered up into the hands of men.”
But they didn’t understand this saying. It was concealed from them, that they should not perceive it, and they were afraid to ask him about this saying.
There arose an argument among them about which of them was the greatest.
Yeshua [Salvation], perceiving the reasoning of their hearts, took a little child, and set him by his side,
48 ⲙ̅ⲏ̅ ⲡⲉϫⲁϥ ⲛⲁⲩ ϫⲉ ⲡⲉⲧⲛⲁϣⲉⲡ ⲡⲉⲓϣⲏⲣⲉ ϣⲏⲙ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲉϫⲙ ⲡⲁⲣⲁⲛ ⲉϥϣⲱⲡ ⲙⲙⲟⲓ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲁⲩⲱ ⲡⲉⲧⲛⲁϣⲟⲡⲧ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲉϥϣⲱⲡ ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲙⲡⲉⲛⲧⲁϥⲧⲛⲛⲟⲟⲩⲧ ⲡⲕⲟⲩⲓ ⲛϩⲏⲧⲧⲏⲩⲧⲛ ⲧⲏⲣⲧⲛ ⲡⲁⲓ ⲡⲉ ⲡⲛⲟϭ
and said to them, “Whoever receives this little child in my name receives me. Whoever receives me receives him who sent me. For whoever is least among you all, this one will be great.”

John [Yah is gracious] answered, “Rabbi ·Teacher·, we saw someone casting out demons in your name, and we forbade him, because he does not follow with us.”
Yeshua [Salvation] said to him, “Don’t forbid him, for he who is not against us is for us.”
It came to pass, when the days were near that he should be taken up, he intently set his face to go to Jerusalem [City of peace],
and sent messengers before his face. They went, and entered into a village of the Samaritans [people from Watch-mountain], so as to prepare for him.
They didn’t receive him, because he was traveling with his face set towards Jerusalem [City of peace].

When his disciples, James [Surplanter] and John [Yah is gracious], saw this, they said, “Lord, do you want us to command fire to come down from the sky, and destroy them, just as Elijah [My God Yah] did?”
But he turned and rebuked them, “You don’t know of what kind of spirit you are.
For the Son of Man didn’t come to destroy men’s lives, but to save them.” They went to another village.
As they went on the way, a certain man said to him, “I want to follow you wherever you go, Lord.”
Yeshua [Salvation] said to him, “The foxes have holes, and the birds of the sky have nests, but the Son of Man has no place to lay his head.”
He said to another, “Follow me!” But he said, “Lord, allow me first to go and bury my father.”
But Yeshua [Salvation] said to him, “Leave the dead to bury their own dead, but you go and announce God’s Kingdom.”
Another also said, “I want to follow you, Lord, but first allow me to say good-bye to those who are at my house.”
But Yeshua [Salvation] said to him, “No one, having put his hand to the plow, and looking back, is fit for God’s Kingdom.”
