five loaves, and the two fishes, and looking up to
heaven, he blessed, and brake and gave the loaves

And straightway he constrained the disciples to 22 enter into the boat, and to go before him unto the other side, till he should send the multitudes away. And after he had sent the multitudes away, he went 23 2 Some ancient autau up into the mountain apart to pray: and when even was many fur- Was come, he was there alone.

And in the fourth 25 watch of the night he came unto them, walking upon the sea. And when the disciples saw him 26 walking on the sea, they were troubled, saying, It is an apparition; and they cried out for fear.

And immediately Jesus stretched forth his hand, 31
and took hold of him, and saith unto him, O thou
of little faith, wherefore didst thou doubt? And 32
when they were gone up into the boat, the wind
ceased. And they that were in the boat worshipped 33
him, saying, Of a truth thou art the Son of God.

And when they had crossed over, they came to 34 the land, unto Gennesaret. And when the men of 35 that place knew him, they sent into all that region round about, and brought unto him all that were sick; and they besought him that they might only 36 touch the border of his garment: and as many as touched were made whole.

Then there come to Jesus from Jerusalem Phari-15 sees and scribes, saying, Why do thy disciples trans- 2 gress the tradition of the elders? for they wash not their hands when they eat bread. And he answered 3

21 And Jesus went out thence, and withdrew into the 22 parts of Tyre and Sidon. And behold, a Canaanitish woman came out from those borders, and cried, saying, Have mercy on me, O Lord, thou son of David; my daughter is grievously vexed with a 'devil. 6 Gr. demon. 23 But he answered her not a word.

dogs eat of the crumbs which fall from their masters'
table. Then Jesus answered and said unto her, O 28
woman, great is thy faith: be it done unto thee even
as thou wilt. And her daughter was healed from
that hour.

And Jesus departed thence, and came nigh unto 29
the sea of Galilee; and he went up into the moun-
tain, and sat there. And there came unto him great 30
multitudes, having with them the lame, blind, dumb,
maimed, and many others, and they cast them down
at his feet; and he healed them: insomuch that the 31
multitude wondered, when they saw the dumb speak-
ing, the maimed whole, and the lame walking, and
the blind seeing: and they glorified the God of Is-
rael.

And Jesus called unto him his disciples, and said, 32 I have compassion on the multitude, because they continue with me now three days and have nothing to eat and I would not send them away fasting, lest haply they faint in the way. And the disciples 33 say unto him, Whence should we have so many loaves in a desert place, as to fill so great a multitude? And Jesus saith unto them, How many loaves 34 have ye? And they said, Seven, and a few small fishes. And he commanded the multitude to sit 35 down on the ground; and he took the seven loaves 36 and the fishes; and he gave thanks and brake, and gave to the disciples, and the disciples to the multitudes. And they did all eat, and were filled: and 37 they took up that which remained over of the broken pieces, seven baskets full. And they that did eat 38 were four thousand men, beside women and children. And he sent away the multitudes, and en- 39 tered into the boat, and came into the borders of Magadan.

And I also say unto thee, that thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will 5 Gr. Petros. build my church; and the gates of Hades shall not 19 prevail against it. I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in 20 heaven. Then charged he the disciples that they should tell no man that he was the Christ.

From that time began 'Jesus to shew unto his disciples, how that he must go unto Jerusalem, and suffer many things of the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and the third day be raised up. 22 And Peter took him, and began to rebuke him, saying, "Be it far from thee, Lord: this shall never be unto 23 thee. But he turned, and said unto Peter, Get thee behind me, Satan: thou art a stumblingblock unto me: for thou mindest not the things of God, but the 24 things of men. Then said Jesus unto his disciples, If any man would come after me, let him deny him25 self, and take up his cross, and follow me. For whosoever would save his life shall lose it: and 9 Or, soul whosoever shall lose his 'life for my sake shall find

gain the whole world, and forfeit his 'life? or what
shall a man give in exchange for his life? For the 27
Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father
with his angels; and then shall he render unto ev-
ery man according to his 'deeds. Verily I say unto 28
you, There be some of them that stand here, which
shall in no wise taste of death, till they see the Son
of man coming in his kingdom.

And after six days Jesus taketh with him Peter, 17
and James, and John his brother, and bringeth them'
up into a high mountain apart: and he was trans- 2

sun, and his garments became white as the light.

said unto Jesus, Lord, it is good for us to be here: if
thou wilt, I will make here three tabernacles; one

While he was yet speaking, behold, a bright cloud 5
overshadowed them: and behold, a voice out of the
cloud, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I

And as they were coming down from the moun- 9 tain, Jesus commanded them, saying, Tell the vision to no man, until the Son of man be risen from the dead. And his disciples asked him, saying, Why 10 then say the scribes that Elijah must first come?
