5 “Why was this ointment not sold for three hundred denarii, and given to the poor?”

6 And he said this, not because he was caring for the poor, but because he was a thief, and had the bag, and what things were put in he was carrying.
Now he said this, not because he cared for the poor, but because he was a thief, and having the money box, used to steal what was put into it.
7 Jesus, therefore, said, “Permit her; she has kept it for the day of My embalming,
But Yeshua said, “Leave her alone. She has kept this for the day of my burial.

15 “Do not fear, daughter of Zion, behold, your King comes, sitting on a colt of a donkey.”
“Don’t be afraid, daughter of Zion. Behold, your King comes, sitting on a donkey’s colt.”

33 And this He said signifying by what death He was about to die;
But he said this, signifying by what kind of death he should die.
34 the multitude answered Him, “We heard that the Christ remains out of the Law—throughout the age; and how do You say that it is required that the Son of Man be lifted up? Who is this—the Son of Man?” (aiōn g165)
The multitude answered him, “We have heard out of the law that the Messiah remains forever. How do you say, ‘The Son of Man must be lifted up’? Who is this Son of Man?” (aiōn g165)

Yeshua therefore said to them, “Yet a little while the light is with you. Walk while you have the light, that darkness doesn’t overtake you. He who walks in the darkness doesn’t know where he is going.
36 while you have the light, believe in the light, that you may become sons of light.” Jesus spoke these things, and having gone away, He was hid from them,
While you have the light, believe in the light, that you may become children of light.” Yeshua said these things, and he departed and hid himself from them.

that the word of Isaiah the prophet might be fulfilled, which he spoke: “Lord, who has believed our report? To whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed?”
39 Because of this they were not able to believe, that again Isaiah said,
For this cause they couldn’t believe, for Isaiah said again:
40 “He has blinded their eyes, and hardened their heart, that they might not see with the eyes, and understand with the heart, and turn, and I might heal them”;
“He has blinded their eyes and he hardened their heart, lest they should see with their eyes, and perceive with their heart, and would turn, and I would heal them.”

46 I—light to the world—have come, that everyone who is believing in Me may not remain in the darkness;
I have come as a light into the world, that whoever believes in me may not remain in the darkness.
47 and if anyone may hear My sayings, and not believe, I do not judge him, for I did not come that I might judge the world, but that I might save the world.
If anyone listens to my sayings and doesn’t believe, I don’t judge him. For I came not to judge the world, but to save the world.
48 He who is rejecting Me, and not receiving My sayings, has one who is judging him, the word that I spoke, that will judge him in the last day,
He who rejects me, and doesn’t receive my sayings, has one who judges him. The word that I spoke will judge him in the last day.
49 because I did not speak from Myself, but the Father who sent Me, He gave Me a command, what I may say, and what I may speak,
For I spoke not from myself, but the Father who sent me gave me a commandment, what I should say and what I should speak.
