Matthew 27:32-37 32 As they were leaving, they met a man from Cyrene named Shim‘on; and they forced him to carry Yeshua’s execution-stake. 33 When they arrived at a place called Gulgolta (which means “place of a skull”), 34 they gave him wine mixed with bitter gall to drink; but after tasting it, he would not drink it. 35 After they had nailed him to the stake, they divided his clothes among them by throwing dice. 36 Then they sat down to keep watch over him there. 37 Above h

Matthew 23:27-32 27 “Woe to you hypocritical Torah-teachers and P’rushim (Pharisees)! You are like whitewashed tombs, which look fine on the outside but inside are full of dead people’s bones and all kinds of rottenness. 28 Likewise, you appear to people from the outside to be good and honest, but inwardly you are full of hypocrisy and far from Torah. 29 “Woe to you hypocritical Torah-teachers and P’rushim! You build tombs for the prophets and decorate the graves of the tzadd

Matthew 22:41-46 41 Then, turning to the assembled P’rushim (Pharisees), Yeshua put a sh’eilah (question) to them: 42 “Tell me your view concerning the Messiah: whose son is he?” They said to him, “David’s.” 43 “Then how is it,” he asked them, “that David, inspired by the Spirit, calls him ‘Lord,’ when he says, 44 ‘Adonai said to my Lord, “Sit here at my right hand until I put your enemies under your feet”’? 45 If David thus calls him ‘Lord,’ how is he his son?” 46 No one cou

Matthew 21:12-13 12 Yeshua entered the Temple grounds and drove out those who were doing business there, both the merchants and their customers. He upset the desks of the money-changers and knocked over the benches of those who were selling pigeons. 13 He said to them, “It has been written,‘My house will be called a house of prayer.’ But you are making it into a den of robbers!” Isaiah 56:7 I will bring them to my holy mountain and make them joyful in my house of prayer; thei

Matthew 19:13-15 13 Then children were brought to him so that he might lay his hands on them and pray for them, but the talmidim (disciples/students) rebuked the people bringing them. 14 However, Yeshua said, “Let the children come to me, don’t stop them, for the Kingdom of Heaven belongs to such as these.” 15 Then, after laying his hands on them, he went on his way. We already know that children are precious in the eyes of the Father. Jesus taught the followers to become lik

Matthew 16:21-23 21 From that time on, Yeshua began making it clear to his talmidim (disciples/students) that he had to go to Yerushalayim (Jerusalem) and endure much suffering at the hands of the elders, the head cohanim (high priests) and the Torah-teachers; and that he had to be put to death; but that on the third day, he had to be raised to life. 22 Kefa took him aside and began rebuking him, “Heaven be merciful, Lord! By no means will this happen to you!” 23 But Yeshua t

Matthew 15:21-28 21 Yeshua left that place and went off to the region of Tzor and Tzidon (Tyre and Sidon). 22 A woman from Kena‘an (Canaan) who was living there came to him, pleading, “Sir, have pity on me. Son of David! My daughter is cruelly held under the power of demons!” 23 But Yeshua did not say a word to her. Then his talmidim (disciples/students) came to him and urged him, “Send her away, because she is following us and keeps pestering us with her crying.” 24 He said,

Matthew 15:1-9 Then some P’rushim (Pharisees) and Torah-teachers from Yerushalayim (Jerusalem) came to Yeshua and asked him, 2 “Why is it that your talmidim (disciples/students) break the Tradition of the Elders? They don’t do n’tilat-yadayim (hand-washing) before they eat!” 3 He answered, “Indeed, why do you break the command of God by your tradition? 4 For God said, ‘Honor your father and mother,’ and ‘Anyone who curses his father or mother must be put to death.’ 5 But you

Matthew 13:33-35 33 And he told them yet another parable. “The Kingdom of Heaven is like yeast that a woman took and mixed with a bushel of flour, then waited until the whole batch of dough rose.” 34 All these things Yeshua said to the crowds in parables; indeed, he said nothing to them without using a parable. 35 This was to fulfill what had been spoken through the prophet, “I will open my mouth in parables, I will say what has been hidden since the creation of the universe.

Matthew 13:24-30 24 Yeshua put before them another parable. “The Kingdom of Heaven is like a man who sowed good seed in his field; 25 but while people were sleeping, his enemy came and sowed weeds among the wheat, then went away. 26 When the wheat sprouted and formed heads of grain, the weeds also appeared. 27 The owner’s servants came to him and said, ‘Sir didn’t you sow good seed in your field? Where have the weeds come from?’ 28 He answered, ‘An enemy has done this.’ The s
