Jesus left
there
and went
to his hometown,
accompanied
by his disciples.
When the Sabbath came,
he began
to teach
in the synagogue,
and many
who heard him
were amazed.
"Where did this man get
these things?"
they asked.
"What's this wisdom
that has been given
him,
that he even does
miracles!
Isn't this the carpenter?
Isn't this Mary's son
and the brother of James, Joseph, Judas and Simon?
Aren't his sisters here
with us?"
And they took
offense
at him.
Jesus said
to them,
"Only in his hometown,
among his relatives
and in his own house
is a prophet
without honor."
He could not do
any miracles
there,
except lay
his hands
on a few sick people
and heal them.
And he was amazed
at their lack of faith.
Then Jesus went
around teaching
from village
to village.
Calling the Twelve
to him,
he sent
them
out two
by two
and gave
them authority
over evil spirits.
These were his instructions:
"Take
nothing
for the journey
except a staff--
no bread, no bag, no money
in your belts.
Wear
sandals
but not an extra tunic.
Whenever you enter
a house,
stay
there
until you leave
that town.
And if any place will not welcome
you
or listen to you,
shake
the dust
off your feet
when you leave,
as a testimony
against them."
They went out
and preached
that people should repent.
They drove out
many demons
and anointed
many sick people
with oil
and healed
them.
King Herod heard
about this,
for Jesus' name had become well known.
Some were saying,
"John the Baptist has been raised
from the dead,
and that is
why miraculous powers are
at work
in him."
Others said,
"He is Elijah."
And still others claimed,
"He is a prophet,
like one of the prophets of long ago."
But when Herod heard
this,
he said,
"John, the man
I beheaded,
has been raised
from the dead!"
For Herod himself had given
orders
to have John arrested,
and he had
him bound
and put in prison.
He did
this
because of Herodias, his brother Philip's wife,
whom he had married.
For John had been saying
to Herod,
"It is not lawful
for you
to have your brother's wife."
So Herodias nursed
a grudge
against John
and wanted
to kill him.
But she was not able to,
because Herod feared
John
and protected
him,
knowing him
to be a righteous and holy man.
When Herod heard
John,
he was greatly puzzled;
yet he liked
to listen
to him.
Finally the opportune time came.
On his birthday
Herod gave
a banquet
for his high officials
and military commanders
and the leading men of Galilee.
When the daughter of Herodias came in
and danced,
she pleased
Herod and his dinner guests.
The king said
to the girl,
"Ask me
for anything you want,
and I'll give
it
to you."
And he promised
her
with an oath,
"Whatever you ask
I will give you,
up to half my kingdom."
She went out
and said
to her mother,
"What shall I ask for?"
"The head of John the Baptist,"
she answered.
At once
the girl hurried in
to the king
with the request:
"I want
you
to give me right now
the head of John the Baptist
on a platter."
The king was greatly distressed,
but because of his oaths
and his dinner guests,
he did not want
to refuse her.
So he immediately sent
an executioner
with orders
to bring John's head.
The man went,
beheaded
John
in the prison,
and brought back
his head
on a platter.
He presented
it
to the girl,
and she gave
it
to her mother.
On hearing of this,
John's disciples came
and took
his body
and laid
it
in a tomb.
The apostles gathered
around Jesus
and reported
to him
all they had done and taught.
<-
Then,
because so many people were coming
and going
that they did not even have
a chance
to eat,
he said
to them,
"Come with me
by yourselves
to a quiet place
and get some rest."
So they went
away
by themselves
in a boat
to a solitary place.
But many
who saw them
leaving recognized
them
and ran on foot
from all the towns
and got
there
ahead of them.
When Jesus landed
and saw
a large crowd,
he had
compassion
on them,
because they were like sheep
without a shepherd.
So he began teaching
them
many things.
By this time
it was late
in the day,
so his disciples came
to him.
"This is a remote place,"
they said,
"and it's already very late.
Send
the people away
so they can go
to the surrounding countryside
and villages
and buy themselves something
to eat."
But he answered,
"You give
them
something to eat."
They said
to him,
"That would take
eight months of a man's wages!
Are we
to go
and spend
that much on bread
and give
it
to them to eat?"
"How many loaves
do you have?"
he asked.
"Go and see."
When they found out,
they said,
"Five--and two fish."
Then Jesus directed
them
to have all the people sit down
in groups
on the green grass.
So they sat down
in groups of hundreds and fifties.
<-
Taking the five loaves
and the two fish
and looking up to heaven,
he gave
thanks
and broke
the loaves.
Then he gave
them
to his disciples
to set
before the people.
He also divided
the two fish
among them all.
They all ate
and were satisfied,
and the disciples picked up
twelve basketfuls of broken pieces
of bread and fish.
The number of the men
who had eaten was five thousand.
Immediately Jesus made
his disciples
get into the boat
and go on ahead of him
to Bethsaida,
while he dismissed
the crowd.
After leaving them,
he went up
on a mountainside
to pray.
When evening came,
the boat was
in the middle of the lake,
and he was alone
on land.
He saw
the disciples straining
at the oars,
because the wind was
against them.
About the fourth watch of the night
he went out
to them,
walking on the lake.
He was about
to pass by them,
but when they saw
him
walking on the lake,
they thought
he was a ghost.
They cried out,
because they all saw
him
and were terrified.
Immediately he spoke
to them
and said,
<-
"Take courage!
It is I.
Don't be afraid."
<-
Then he climbed
into the boat
with them,
and the wind died down.
They were completely amazed,
for they had not understood
about the loaves;
their hearts were hardened.
When they had crossed over,
they landed
at Gennesaret
and anchored there.
As soon as
they got out
of the boat,
people recognized
Jesus.
They ran throughout
that whole region
and carried
the sick
on mats
to wherever they heard
he was.
<-
And wherever he went
--into villages,
towns or countryside--
they placed
the sick
in the marketplaces.
They begged
him
to let them
touch even the edge of his cloak,
and all
who touched
him
were healed.
