2 As it has been written by the prophet Isaiah: “Behold, I send my Angel before your face, who shall prepare your way before you.
As it is written in the prophets, “Behold, I send my messenger before your face, who will prepare your way before you:
3 The voice of one crying out in the desert: Prepare the way of the Lord; make straight his paths.”

John [Yah is gracious] came baptizing in the wilderness and preaching the mikvah ·ritual washing baptism· of teshuvah ·complete repentance· for forgiveness of abstract sins ·miss the marks·.
5 And there went out to him all the region of Judea and all those of Jerusalem, and they were baptized by him in the river Jordan, confessing their sins.
All the country of Judea [Praise] and all those of Jerusalem [City of peace] went out to him. They were immersed by him in the Jordan [Descender] river, confessing their abstract sins ·miss the marks·.

7 And he preached, saying: “One stronger than me comes after me. I am not worthy to reach down and loosen the laces of his shoes.
He preached, saying, “After me comes he who is mightier than I, the thong of whose sandals I am not worthy to stoop down and loosen.
8 I have baptized you with water. Yet truly, he will baptize you with the Holy Spirit.”
I immersed you in water, but he will mikvah ·baptise· you in Ruach haKodesh [Spirit, Breath of the Holiness].”
9 And it happened that, in those days, Jesus arrived from Nazareth of Galilee. And he was baptized by John in the Jordan.
In those days, Yeshua [Salvation] came from Nazareth [Branch, Separated one] of Galilee [District, Circuit], and was immersed by John [Yah is gracious] in the Jordan [Descender].
10 And immediately, upon ascending from the water, he saw the heavens opened and the Spirit, like a dove, descending, and remaining with him.

11 And there was a voice from heaven: “You are my beloved Son; in you I am well pleased.”
A voice came out of the sky, “You are my agapetos ·beloved, esteemed· Son, in whom I am well pleased.”
12 And immediately the Spirit prompted him into the desert.

13 And he was in the desert for forty days and forty nights. And he was tempted by Satan. And he was with the wild animals, and the Angels ministered to him.

15 and saying: “For the time has been fulfilled and the kingdom of God has drawn near. Repent and believe in the Gospel.”
and saying, “The time is fulfilled, and God’s Kingdom is at hand! Teshuvah ·Turn repent·, and trust in the Good News.”
16 And passing by the shore of the Sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and his brother Andrew, casting nets into the sea, for they were fishermen.

17 And Jesus said to them, “Come after me, and I will make you fishers of men.”
Yeshua [Salvation] said to them, “Come after me, and I will make you into fishers for men.”
18 And at once abandoning their nets, they followed him.
Immediately they left their nets, and followed him.
19 And continuing on a little ways from there, he saw James of Zebedee and his brother John, and they were mending their nets in a boat.
Going on a little further from there, he saw James son of Zebedee [Surplanter son of Yah Has Bestowed], and John [Yah is gracious], his brother, who were also in the boat mending the nets.
20 And immediately he called them. And leaving behind their father Zebedee in the boat with his hired hands, they followed him.
Immediately he called them, and they left their father, Zebedee [Bestowed by Yah], in the boat with the hired servants, and went after him.
21 And they entered into Capernaum. And entering into the synagogue promptly on the Sabbaths, he taught them.
They went into Capernaum [Village-Comfort, Village-Compassion], and immediately on the Sabbath ·To cease· day he entered into the synagogue and taught.
22 And they were astonished over his doctrine. For he was teaching them as one who has authority, and not like the scribes.
They were astonished at his teaching, for he taught them as having authority, and not as the Torah-Teachers.
23 And in their synagogue, there was a man with an unclean spirit; and he cried out,
Immediately there was in their synagogue a man with an unclean spirit, and he cried out,
24 saying: “What are we to you, Jesus of Nazareth? Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are: the Holy One of God.”
saying, “Ha! What do we have to do with you, Yeshua [Salvation], you Nazarene [person from Branch, Separated one]? Have you come to destroy us? I know you who you are: haKadosh Elohim [the Holy One of God]!”
25 And Jesus admonished him, saying, “Be silent, and depart from the man.”
Yeshua [Salvation] rebuked him, saying, “Be quiet, and come out of him!”
26 And the unclean spirit, convulsing him and crying out with a loud voice, departed from him.

28 And his fame went out quickly, throughout the entire region of Galilee.
The report of him went out immediately everywhere into all the region of Galilee [District, Circuit] and its surrounding area.
29 And soon after departing from the synagogue, they went into the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John.
Immediately, when they had come out of the synagogue, they came into the house of Simeon [Hearing] and Andrew [Manly], with James [Surplanter] and John [Yah is gracious].
30 But the mother-in-law of Simon lay ill with a fever. And at once they told him about her.
Now Simeon [Hearing]’s wife’s mother lay sick with a fever, and immediately they told him about her.
31 And drawing near to her, he raised her up, taking her by the hand. And immediately the fever left her, and she ministered to them.

32 Then, when evening arrived, after the sun had set, they brought to him all who had maladies and those who had demons.

35 And rising up very early, departing, he went out to a deserted place, and there he prayed.

36 And Simon, and those who were with him, followed after him.
Simeon [Hearing] and those who were with him followed after him;
37 And when they had found him, they said to him, “For everyone is seeking you.”
and they found him, and told him, “Everyone is looking for you.”
38 And he said to them: “Let us go into the neighboring towns and cities, so that I may preach there also. Indeed, it was for this reason that I came.”
He said to them, “Let’s go elsewhere into the next towns, that I may preach there also, because I came out for this reason.”
39 And he was preaching in their synagogues and throughout all of Galilee, and casting out demons.
He went into their synagogues throughout all Galilee [District, Circuit], preaching and casting out demons.
40 And a leper came to him, begging him. And kneeling down, he said to him, “If you are willing, you are able to cleanse me.”
A leper came to him, begging him, kneeling down to him, and saying to him, “If you want to, you can make me clean.”
41 Then Jesus, taking pity on him, reached out his hand. And touching him, he said to him: “I am willing. Be cleansed.”
Being moved with compassion, he stretched out his hand, and touched him, and said to him, “I want to. Be made clean.”
42 And after he had spoken, immediately the leprosy departed from him, and he was cleansed.
When he had said this, immediately the tzara'at ·leprosy· departed from him, and he was made clean.
43 And he admonished him, and he promptly sent him away.
He strictly warned him, and immediately sent him out,
44 And he said to him: “See to it that you tell no one. But go and show yourself to the high priest, and offer for your cleansing that which Moses instructed, as a testimony for them.”
and said to him, “See you say nothing to anybody; instead, as a testimony to the people, go and let the priest examine you, and make an offer for your cleansing, as Moses [Drawn out] commanded.”
45 But having departed, he began to preach and to disseminate the word, so that he was no longer able to openly enter a city, but had to remain outside, in deserted places. And they were gathered to him from every direction.
But he went out, and began to proclaim it much, and to spread about the matter, so that Yeshua [Salvation] could no more openly enter into a city, but was outside in desert places: and they came to him from everywhere.
