What did Mattew write about in this gospel?

The Gospel of Matthew is one of four books in the New Testament that describe some of Jesus’ life. The authors of the gospels wrote in different ways about who Jesus was and what he did. Matthew showed that Jesus is the Messiah and that God would save Israel through him. Matthew often explained that Jesus fulfilled the Old Testament prophecies about the messiah.

See: Messiah (Christ); Gospel; Israel;Fulfill (Fulfillment); Old Testament (Law and Prophets)

Matthew

Chapter 1

1 The book of the genealogy of Jesus Christ, son of David, son of Abraham.

2 Abraham was the father of Isaac, and Isaac the father of Jacob, and Jacob the father of Judah and his brothers.

3 Judah was the father of Perez and Zerah by Tamar, Perez the father of Hezron, and Hezron the father of Ram.

4 Ram was the father of Amminadab, Amminadab the father of Nahshon, and Nahshon the father of Salmon.

5 Salmon was the father of Boaz by Rahab, Boaz the father of Obed by Ruth, Obed the father of Jesse.

6 Jesse was the father of David the king.

David was the father of Solomon by the wife of Uriah.

7 Solomon was the father of Rehoboam, Rehoboam the father of Abijah, Abijah the father of Asa.

8 Asa was the father of Jehoshaphat, Jehoshaphat the father of Joram, and Joram an ancestor of Uzziah.

9 Uzziah was the father of Jotham, Jotham the father of Ahaz, Ahaz the father of Hezekiah.

10 Hezekiah was the father of Manasseh, Manasseh the father of Amon, and Amon the father of Josiah.

11 Josiah was an ancestor of Jechoniah and his brothers at the time of the deportation to Babylon.

12 After the deportation to Babylon, Jechoniah was the father of Shealtiel, Shealtiel was an ancestor of Zerubbabel.

13 Zerubbabel was the father of Abiud, Abiud the father of Eliakim, and Eliakim the father of Azor.

14 Azor was the father of Zadok, Zadok the father of Achim, and Achim the father of Eliud.

17 All the generations from Abraham to David were fourteen generations, from David to the deportation to Babylon fourteen generations, and from the deportation to Babylon to the Christ fourteen generations.

18 The birth of Jesus Christ happened in the following way. His mother, Mary, was engaged to marry Joseph, but before they came together, she was found to be pregnant by the Holy Spirit. 19 But Joseph, her husband, was a righteous man and did not want to publicly disgrace her, so he intended to divorce her quietly. 20 As he thought about these things, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, "Joseph son of David, do not fear to take Mary as your wife, because the one who is conceived in her is conceived by the Holy Spirit. 21 She will bear a son, and you will call his name Jesus, for he will save his people from their sins." 22 Now all this happened to fulfill what was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying, 23 "Behold, the virgin will become pregnant and will bear a son, and they will call his name Immanuel"—which being translated is, "God with us." 24 Joseph got up from his sleep and did as the angel of the Lord commanded him, and he took her as his wife. 25 But he did not know her until she gave birth to a son. Then he called his name Jesus.

Special concepts in this chapter

Genealogy

A genealogy is a list that records a person's ancestors or descendants. Jews used genealogies to choose the right man to become king. They did this because only a son of a king could become king. Most important people had records of their genealogies.

Important figures of speech in this chapter

Use of the passive voice

Matthew uses the passive voice very purposefully in this chapter to indicate that Mary did not have a sexual relationship with anyone. She became pregnant with Jesus because the Holy Spirit performed a miracle. Many languages do not have a passive voice, so translators in those languages must find other ways to present the same truths.


Matthew Commentary

1:1-17

Why did Matthew write about Jesus’ ancestors?

[1:1]

Matthew wrote about Jesus’ ancestors so people would know that he rule Israel because he was a descendant of King David.

See: Son of David; Messiah (Christ); Ancestor and Descendant (Fathers, Forefathers, Patriarchs); Son of David

What does the name, “Jesus,” mean?

[1:1]

“Jesus” was the Greek form of the Hebrew name “Joshua.” The name “Joshua” meant “God saves.” Other men of the Israelites also had this name, but Jesus was unlike them because he was also the “son of David.” The title “son of David” was also a name for the messiah.

See: Son of David; Save (Salvation, Saved from Sins); Son of David

1:18-25

What did it mean “to be pregnant by the Holy Spirit”?

[1:18, 1:20]

Scholars think that “to be pregnant by the Holy Spirit” meant that the Holy Spirit caused Mary to become pregnant. It was a miracle.

See: Virgin; Miracle; Incarnation; Virgin

What did it mean that Joseph was a “righteous man”?

[1:19]

When Matthew wrote that Joseph was a “righteous man” it meant that he was a man that obeyed the Law of Moses. Joseph thought that Mary must have committed adultery in order for her to become pregnant. Joseph thought he should end his engagement with Mary because this was taught in the Law of Moses. Other scholars think Matthew wanted people to know that Joseph was a righteous man because he wanted to end his engagement with Mary in a quiet way, so as not to dishonor Mary.

See: Law of Moses; Adultery; Law of Moses

What did the words, “disgrace her publicly” mean in Joseph’s day.

[1:19]

In ancient Israel, when a woman was disgraced publicly, she was brought to court because she did something wrong. This would have caused great shame and embarrassment for Mary. Perhaps she would also have been punished.

See: Punish (Punishment); Punish (Punishment)

What did Matthew mean with the words, “fulfill what was spoken”?

[1:22]

When Matthew wrote the words, “fulfill what was spoken,” he was speaking about prophecies being fulfilled. It was prophesied that Mary would become pregnant, and Jesus would be born.

See: Isaiah 7:14 See: Prophecy (Prophesy); Prophecy (Prophesy)

What was meant by “he took her as his wife” when Matthew spoke about Joseph and Mary?

[1:24]

That Joseph took Mary as his wife meant that Mary became Joseph’s wife and he took her into his home. This showed everyone that Joseph accepted Mary as his wife.

Chapter 2

1 After Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea in the days of Herod the king, learned men from the east arrived in Jerusalem saying, 2 "Where is he who was born King of the Jews? We saw his star in the east and have come to worship him." 3 When Herod the king heard this, he was troubled, and all Jerusalem with him. 4 Herod brought together all the chief priests and scribes of the people, and he asked them, "Where is the Christ to be born?" 5 They said to him, "In Bethlehem of Judea, for this is what was written by the prophet,

    6 'But you, Bethlehem, in the land of Judah,

         are not the least among the rulers of Judah,

     for from you will come one who rules,

         who will shepherd my people Israel.'"

7 Then Herod secretly called the learned men to ask them exactly what time the star had appeared. 8 He sent them to Bethlehem, saying, "Go and search carefully for the young child. When you have found him, bring me a report so that I also may come and worship him." 9 After they had heard the king, they went on their way, and the star that they had seen in the east went before them until it came and stood still over where the young child was. 10 When they saw the star, they rejoiced with very great joy. 11 They went into the house and saw the young child with Mary his mother. They fell down and worshiped him. They opened their treasures and offered him gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh. 12 God warned them in a dream not to return to Herod, so they departed to their own country by another way.

13 After they had departed, an angel of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream and said, "Get up, take the young child and his mother, and flee to Egypt. Remain there until I tell you, for Herod will seek the young child to destroy him." 14 That night Joseph rose and took the young child and his mother and departed into Egypt. 15 He remained there until the death of Herod. This fulfilled what had been spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying, "Out of Egypt I have called my Son."

16 Then Herod, when he saw that he had been mocked by the learned men, was very angry. He sent and killed all the male children that were in Bethlehem and in all that region who were two years old and under, according to the time that he had determined exactly from the learned men. 17 Then was fulfilled what had been spoken through Jeremiah the prophet, saying,

    18 "A voice was heard in Ramah,

         weeping and great mourning,

     Rachel weeping for her children,

         and she refused to be comforted,

         because they were no more."

19 When Herod died, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared in a dream to Joseph in Egypt and said, 20 "Get up and take the child and his mother and go to the land of Israel, for those who sought the child's life are dead." 21 Joseph rose, took the child and his mother, and came into the land of Israel. 22 But when he heard that Archelaus was reigning over Judea in the place of his father Herod, he was afraid to go there. After God warned him in a dream, he left for the region of Galilee 23 and went and lived in a city called Nazareth. This fulfilled what had been spoken through the prophets, that he would be called a Nazarene.


Matthew 2 General Notes

Structure and formatting

Some translations set poetry farther to the right than the rest of the text to show that it is poetry. The ULB does this with the poetry in verses 6 and 18, which is from the Old Testament.

Special concepts in this chapter

"His star"

These words probably refer to a star that the learned men believed to be the sign of a new king of Israel. (See: sign)

Other possible translation difficulties in this chapter

"Learned men"

English translations use many different words to translate this phrase. These words include "magi" and "wise men." These men could have been scientists or astrologers. If you can, you should translate this with the general words "learned men."

Who were the learned men from the east?

[2:1]

The learned men were most likely scholars from Babylon who studied how the stars moved. In ancient times, people in the Middle East were often guided by how the stars appeared in the sky. Matthew wrote about the visit of these men so that people would be amazed. The birth of Jesus was more than just good news for the people in Israel. It was good news for the entire world. God guided Gentile scholars to see Jesus.

See: Babylon

See Map: Babylon

Who was “the king of the Jews”?

[2:2]

The term “king of the Jews” is a title which the Gentiles often used to speak about the messiah.

See: Messiah (Christ)

What was the “star in the east”?

[2:2]

Matthew wrote about a “star in the east.” This was a star people could see in the sky. The scholars lived west of Israel. These men studied the stars in the sky. Therefore, they saw the light to the east of them. They followed the star in some way. It took them to Bethlehem. The believed star would bring them to something they wanted to see. Why was all Jerusalem troubled? Matthew wrote that Herod was disturbed because of the news he heard. These scholars reported that the messiah had been born. Herod was afraid of this because the messiah was the king of the Jews. Herod believed there could only be one “King of the Jews” (See: Matthew 2:1). Herod was afraid that the people would no longer want him to be king. The people of Jerusalem were afraid that Herod would become angry and hurt them.

See Map: Bethlehem; Judah

How old was Jesus when the learned men came to visit him?

[2:7]

Matthew does not say how old Jesus was when the learned men came. When Herod learned about the birth of Jesus he ordered the killing of all male children under two years of age living near Bethlehem. Jesus was younger than this.

Did Herod want to worship the young child?

[2:8]

Herod directed the learned men to go to Bethlehem to “search thoroughly” for the young child. He wanted them to talk to people in Bethlehem. However, Herod did not want to worship Jesus. Instead, he wanted these men to find Jesus for him. He wanted to kill Jesus so he could continue to rule Israel.

See: King Herod

What were the gifts the learned men brought to Jesus?

[2:11]

In ancient times, someone gave a gift to a person that was greater than them in order to honor the other person (see: Genesis 14:17-20 and Hebrews 7:1-7). The gifts which the learned men gave to Jesus were gold, frankincense, and myrrh. The gifts were very valuable and honored Jesus who they believed was a king. These gifts were very expensive.

Why did the learned men return to their country another way?

[2:12]

The learned men returned to their country in a different way than they came to Israel. They did not want Herod to be angry and kill them. God warned them by giving them a dream.

2:13-15

What is an angel of the Lord?

[2:13]

See: Angel

Would a Jew go to Egypt?

[2:13]

Egypt was about 100 kilometers south of Bethlehem. During this period, Egypt was not ruled by Herod. However, Egypt and Israel were part of the Roman Empire. At this time, Jews would often travel to Egypt. Many Jews lived in Egypt. Because there were so many Jews in Egypt, a Jewish temple had been built for them in Egypt. Because Herod did not rule Egypt, it was safe for Mary and Joseph to stay there.

See Map: Bethlehem; Egypt; Israel; Roman Empire

Why did Matthew write the same thing Hosea wrote?

What are the land of Israel and the land of Judea?

[2:20, 2:21, 2:22]

When Matthew wrote about the land of Judea and the land of Israel, he was talking about the same place.

Why was Joseph afraid of Herod Archelaus?

[2:22]

Herod Archeaus was the son of Herod the Great. He put many people into prison and killed many people. This is why Joseph was afraid of him.

See: King Herod

How was Jesus a Nazarene?

[2:23]

Joseph and Mary took Jesus to the town of Nazareth to live. Jesus was a Nazarene.

Chapter 3

1 In those days John the Baptist came preaching in the wilderness of Judea saying, 2 "Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is near." 3 For this is he who was spoken of by Isaiah the prophet, saying,

 

     "The voice of one calling out in the wilderness,

     'Make ready the way of the Lord,

         make his paths straight.'"

4 Now John wore clothing of camel's hair and a leather belt around his waist. His food was locusts and wild honey. 5 Then Jerusalem, all Judea, and all the region around the Jordan River went out to him. 6 They were baptized by him in the Jordan River, confessing their sins. 7 But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees coming to him for baptism, he said to them, "You offspring of vipers, who warned you to flee from the wrath that is coming? 8 Bear fruit worthy of repentance. 9 Do not think of saying among yourselves, 'We have Abraham for our father.' For I say to you that God is able to raise up children for Abraham even out of these stones. 10 Already the ax has been placed against the root of the trees. So every tree that does not produce good fruit is chopped down and thrown into the fire. 11 I baptize you with water for repentance. But he who comes after me is mightier than I, and I am not worthy even to carry his sandals. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and with fire. 12 His winnowing fork is in his hand to thoroughly clear off his threshing floor and to gather his wheat into the storehouse. But he will burn up the chaff with fire that can never be put out."

13 Then Jesus came from Galilee to the Jordan River to be baptized by John. 14 But John kept trying to stop him, saying, "I need to be baptized by you, and do you come to me?" 15 Jesus responded and said to him, "Permit it now, for it is right for us to fulfill all righteousness." Then John permitted him. 16 After he was baptized, Jesus came up immediately from the water, and behold, the heavens were opened to him. He saw the Spirit of God coming down like a dove and resting upon him. 17 Behold, a voice came out of the heavens saying, "This is my beloved Son. I am very pleased with him."


Matthew 3 General Notes

Structure and formatting

Some translations set quotations from the Old Testament farther to the right on the page than the rest of the text. The ULB does this with the quoted material in verse 3.

Special concepts in this chapter

"Bear fruit worthy of repentance"

Fruit is a common picture word in the scriptures. Writers use it to describe the results of either good or bad behavior. In this chapter, good fruit is the result of living as God commands. (See: fruit)

Other possible translation difficulties in this chapter

"The kingdom of heaven is near"

No one knows for sure whether the "kingdom of heaven" was present or still coming when John spoke these words. English translations often use the phrase "at hand," but these words can be difficult to translate. Other versions use the phrases "is coming near" and "has come near."


Matthew 3

3:1-12

Why did John the Baptist preach in the wilderness?

[3:1]

John the Baptist belonged to and spoke for God. He lived outside of the cities like a prophet from the Old Testament. John fulfilled the promise of the prophet Isaiah (Isaiah 40:3) that said that someone from the wilderness would tell the people that Jesus was coming. Many Jews believed that a deliverer would come from the desert to free them from their Roman oppressors (Ezekiel 20:33–38; Hosea 2:14–23).

See: Fulfill (Fulfillment); Prophet; Old Testament (Law and Prophets); Fulfill (Fulfillment)

Why did John say “repent, for the kingdom of heaven is near”?

[3:2]

John told the people to “repent” or “turn away from” (μετανοέω/g3340) their sinful thoughts and actions. By doing so they would be prepared for the Messiah who was about to come.

See: Sin; Kingdom of God; Sin

Why did the author of Matthew write the same thing Isaiah wrote?

[3:3]

The author of Matthew wrote the same thing Isaiah wrote (see: Isaiah 40:3). The ancient Jews disobeyed God. God punished the Israelites and sent them to Babylon. God promised that he would forgive them and return them to their home in Israel (see: Isaiah 40:1-2). Matthew said that Isaiah also wrote about John the Baptist because John’s message announced the coming of Jesus the messiah.

See: Messiah (Christ); Messiah (Christ)

See Map: Babylon

Why did John live in the way that he lived?

[3:4]

John wore clothes made of camel’s hair and a belt made of leather. He ate locusts and wild honey. John lived in this way to show that he was a prophet like Elijah (See: 2 Kings 1:8). He lived simply and avoided luxuries in order to prepare God’s people for the coming of Jesus the messiah.

See: People of God; Messiah (Christ); People of God

Why did John baptize people?

[3:6]

John prepared people for the messiah to arrive. He baptized in water those people who repented of their sins (3:6).

See: Repent (Repentance); Confess (Confession); Sin; Messiah (Christ); Repent (Repentance)

Why did the Pharisees and Sadducees come to the baptism?

[3:7]

The Pharisees and Sadducees were religious and political leaders among the Jewish people. Some scholars think that the Pharisees and Sadducees to whom John spoke were coming to be baptized, too. They likely came to the baptism to learn about the things John taught. John was attracting many followers, and people were coming to him to be baptized. The Jewish leaders worried about people following John the Baptist.

See: Baptize (Baptism); Sadducees; Baptize (Baptism)

Why did John rebuke the Jewish leaders?

[3:7]

John understood that the Pharisees and Sadducees came to learn why John served God in the way he did. They did not want to repent of their sins. If the Pharisees and Sadducees actually came to be baptized it is likely that John believed they just wanted people to see them and think they honored God.

See: Baptize (Baptism); Sadducees; Repent (Repentance); Baptize (Baptism)

How does someone have Abraham as their father?

[3:9]

The Pharisees and Sadducees were the descendants of Abraham. However, they did not trust God in the way Abraham did.

See: Ancestor and Descendant (Fathers, Forefathers, Patriarchs); Sadducees; Ancestor and Descendant (Fathers, Forefathers, Patriarchs)

Why did John talk about a tree?

[3:10]

John wrote about fruit and a tree (see: Matthew 3:10). This was a metaphor. He wanted people to know that Israel was about to be judged. John wanted them to know that God would quickly judge Israel. The Old Testament often used the axe as a symbol of judgement (See: Isaiah 10:15). God was often portrayed there as expecting good fruit from His people (see: Isaiah 5:2; Jeremiah 2:21; 11:16-17).

See: Fruit (Metaphor); Judge (Judgment); Symbol; Fruit (Metaphor)

Who did John talk about when he talked about someone greater than him?

[3:11]

John spoke to a people group who wanted people to honor him. John wanted people to know that he needed to honor the messiah and he was unworthy to untie his sandals (See: Matthew 3:11). In ancient Israel, only servants untied the sandals of other people.

How will Jesus baptize people with the Holy Spirit and fire?

[3:11]

Some scholars think John’s was a prophecy. This was fulfilled by Christians and non-Christians. Non-Christians do not repent and God will judge them. Other scholars think the promise of fire was about Christians. The Holy Spirit purifies Christians.

See: Hebrews 12:29

See: Purify (Pure) ; Fulfill (Fulfillment); Repent (Repentance); Judge (Judgment); Fire; Holy Spirit; Purify (Pure)

Why did John talk about a winnowing fork?

[3:12]

John talked about a winnowing fork because this tool was used by farmers in the field to separate the wheat from the chaff. Field workers would use this big fork to toss the harvested wheat into the wind. The heavy kernels of wheat would then fall to the ground, and the chaff would blow away. The chaff was often burned by fire. John used this as a metaphor. John wanted people to know that the Holy Spirit makes Christians clean.

See: Clean and Unclean; Clean and Unclean

3:13-17

Where were Galilee and the Jordan River?

[3:13]

See Map: Galilee; Jordan River

Why did Jesus want to be baptized by John?

[3:13]

Jesus told John that John needed to baptize him. Jesus wanted John to baptize him in order “for us to fulfill all righteousness.”

See: Fulfill (Fulfillment); Baptize (Baptism); Fulfill (Fulfillment)

Why did John think that he should not baptize Jesus?

[3:14]

John said that he needed to be baptized by Jesus. John believed that Jesus was greater than him. He knew Jesus did not need to repent of his sins. He did not understand that Jesus was baptized for a different reason than the reason John baptized people.

See: Sin; Repent (Repentance); Sin

Why did the Spirit come down on Jesus like a dove?

[3:16]

Many times in the Old Testament, human authors recorded the presence of doves in their stories. Doves were a sign of peace and new life.

See: Genesis 1:2; 8:8-12

See: Sign

Why did the voice from heaven say “this is my beloved son”?

[3:17]

God said that Jesus was his beloved son. Matthew wanted people to know that Jesus is holy and Jesus is God.

See: Jesus is God; Holy (Holiness, Set Apart); Jesus is God


Matthew 3:1

General Information:

This is the beginning of a new part of the story where Matthew tells of the ministry of John the Baptist.

This is many years after Joseph and his family left Egypt and went to Nazareth. This is probably near the time that Jesus begins his ministry. Alternate translation: "Some time later" or "Some years later"

Matthew 3:2

Repent

This is plural in form. John is speaking to the crowds.

the kingdom of heaven is near

The phrase "kingdom of heaven" refers to God ruling as king. This phrase is only in the book of Matthew. If possible, use the word "heaven" in your translation. Alternate translation: "our God in heaven will soon show himself to be king"

Matthew 3:3

General Information:

Matthew quotes the prophet Isaiah to show that John the Baptist was God's appointed messenger to prepare for Jesus's ministry.

For this is he who was spoken of by Isaiah the prophet, saying

This can be stated in active form. Alternate translation: "For Isaiah the prophet was speaking of John the Baptist when he said"

The voice of one calling out in the wilderness

This can be expressed as a sentence. Alternate translation: "The voice of one calling out in the wilderness is heard" or "They hear the sound of someone calling out in the wilderness"

Make ready the way of the Lord ... make his paths straight

These two phrases mean the same thing.

Make ready the way of the Lord

"Get the road ready for the Lord." Doing this represents being prepared to hear the Lord's message when he comes. People do this by repenting of their sins. Alternate translation: "Prepare to hear the Lord's message when he comes" or "Repent and be ready for the Lord to come"

Matthew 3:4

Now ... wild honey

The word "Now" is used here to mark a pause in the story. Here Matthew tells background information about John the Baptist.

wore clothing of camel's hair and a leather belt around his waist

This clothing symbolizes that John is a prophet like the prophets from long ago, especially the prophet Elijah.

Matthew 3:5

Then Jerusalem, all Judea, and all the region

The words "Jerusalem," "Judea," and "the region" are metonyms for the people from those areas. The word "all" is an exaggeration to emphasize that very many people went out. Alternate translation: Then very may people from Jerusalem, Judea, and that region"

Matthew 3:6

They were baptized by him ... River, confessing their sins

This can be stated in active form. Alternate translation: "John baptized them ... River after they confessed their sins"

They

This refers to the people coming from Jerusalem, Judea, and the region around the Jordan River.

Matthew 3:7

General Information:

John the Baptist begins to rebuke the Pharisees and Sadducees.

You offspring of vipers, who

who warned you to flee from the wrath that is coming?

John uses a question to rebuke the Pharisees and Sadducees because they were asking him to baptize them so that God would not punish them, but they did not want to stop sinning. Alternate translation: "you cannot flee from God's wrath like this." or "do not think that you can flee from God's wrath just because I baptize you."

flee from the wrath that is coming

The word "wrath" is being used to refer to God's punishment because his wrath precedes it. Alternate translation: "run away from the punishment that is coming" or "escape because God is about to punish you"

Matthew 3:8

Bear fruit worthy of repentance

The phrase "bear fruit" is a metaphor referring to a person's actions. Alternate translation: "Let your actions show that you have truly repented"

Matthew 3:9

We have Abraham for our father

"Abraham is our ancestor" or "We are descendants of Abraham." The Jewish leaders thought that God would not punish them since they were descendants of Abraham.

This adds emphasis to what John is about to say.

God is able to raise up children for Abraham even out of these stones

"God is able to make physical descendants out of even these stones and give them to Abraham"

Matthew 3:10

Connecting Statement:

John the Baptist continues to rebuke the Pharisees and Sadducees.

Already the ax has been placed against the root of the trees. So every tree that does not produce good fruit is chopped down and thrown into the fire

This metaphor means God is ready to punish sinners. This can be stated in active form. Alternate translation: "God has his axe and he is ready to cut down and burn any tree that grows bad fruit" or "As a person gets his axe ready to cut down and burn a tree that grows bad fruit, God is ready to punish you for your sins"

for repentance

"to show that you have repented"

But he who comes after me

Jesus is the person who comes after John.

is mightier than I

"is more important than I am"

He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and with fire

This metaphor compares John's baptism with water to the future baptism with fire. This means John's baptism only symbolically cleanses people of their sins. The baptism by Holy Spirit and fire will truly cleanse people of their sins. If possible, use the word "baptize" in your translation to keep the comparison to John's baptism.

Matthew 3:12

His winnowing fork is in his hand

This metaphor compares the way Christ will separate the righteous people from the unrighteous people to the way a man separates wheat grain from chaff. Alternate translation: "Christ is like a man whose winnowing fork is in his hand"

His winnowing fork is in his hand

Here "in his hand" means the person is ready to act. Alternate translation: "Christ is holding a winnowing fork because he is ready"

winnowing fork

This is a tool for tossing wheat up into the air to separate the wheat grain from the chaff. The heavier grain falls back down and the unwanted chaff is blown away by the wind. It is similar in shape to a pitchfork but with wide tines made of wood.

his threshing floor

"his ground" or "the ground where he separates the grain from the chaff"

gather his wheat into the storehouse ... burn up the chaff with fire that can never be put out

This is a metaphor showing how God will separate righteous people from evil people. The righteous will go to heaven like wheat into a farmer's storehouse, and God will burn the people who are like chaff with a fire that will never be put out.

can never be put out

This can be stated in active form. Alternate translation: "will never burn out"

Matthew 3:13

Matthew 3:16

Connecting Statement:

This is the end of the part of the story about John the Baptist. It describes what happened after he baptized Jesus.

After he was baptized

This can be stated in active form. Alternate translation: "After John baptized Jesus"

behold

The word "behold" here alerts us to pay attention to the surprising information that follows.

the heavens were opened to him

This can be stated in active form. Alternate translation: "Jesus saw the sky open" or "God opened the heavens to Jesus"

Chapter 4

1 Then Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil. 2 When he had fasted forty days and forty nights, he was hungry. 3 The tempter came and said to him, "If you are the Son of God, command these stones to become bread."

4 But Jesus answered and said to him, "It is written, 'Man does not live on bread alone, but by every word that comes out of the mouth of God.'"

5 Then the devil took him into the holy city and set him on the highest point of the temple building, 6 and said to him, "If you are the Son of God, throw yourself down, for it is written,

 

     'He will command his angels to take care of you,'

and

     'They will carry you in their hands,

         so that you will not hit your foot against a stone.'"

7 Jesus said to him, "Again it is written, 'You must not test the Lord your God.'"

8 Again, the devil took him up to a very high hill and showed him all the kingdoms of the world along with all their glory. 9 He said to him, "All these things I will give you, if you fall down and worship me."

10 Then Jesus said to him, "Go away from here, Satan! For it is written, 'You will worship the Lord your God, and you will serve only him.'"

11 Then the devil left him, and behold, angels came and served him.

12 Now when Jesus heard that John had been handed over, he withdrew into Galilee. 13 He left Nazareth and went and lived in Capernaum, which is by the Sea of Galilee in the territories of Zebulun and Naphtali. 14 This happened to fulfill what was said by Isaiah the prophet,

    15 "The land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali,

         toward the sea, beyond the Jordan,

         Galilee of the Gentiles!

    16 The people who sat in darkness

         have seen a great light,

     and to those who sat in the region and shadow of death,

         upon them has a light arisen."

17 From that time Jesus began to preach and say, "Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is near." 18 As he was walking by the Sea of Galilee, he saw two brothers, Simon who is called Peter, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea, for they were fishermen. 19 Jesus said to them, "Come, follow me, and I will make you fishers of men." 20 Immediately they left the nets and followed him. 21 As Jesus was going on from there he saw two other brothers, James son of Zebedee and John his brother. They were in the boat with Zebedee their father mending their nets. He called them, 22 and they immediately left the boat and their father and followed him.

23 Jesus went about in all of Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, preaching the gospel of the kingdom and healing every kind of disease and sickness among the people. 24 The news about him went out into all of Syria, and the people brought to him all those who suffered from various diseases and pains, those who were possessed by demons, the epileptics, and the paralytics. Jesus healed them. 25 Large crowds followed him from Galilee, the Decapolis, Jerusalem, and Judea, and from beyond the Jordan.


Matthew 4 General Notes

Structure and formatting

Some translations set poetry farther to the right than the rest of the text to show that it is poetry. The ULB does this with the poetry in verses 6, 15 and 16, which is from the Old Testament.

Other possible translation difficulties in this chapter

"the kingdom of heaven has come near"

No one knows for use whether the "kingdom of heaven" was present or still coming when Jesus spoke these words. English translations often use the phrase "at hand," but these words can be difficult to translate. Other versions use the phase "is coming near" and "has come near."

"If you are the Son of God"

The reader should not understand these words in verses 3 and 6 to mean that Satan did not know whether Jesus was the Son of God. God had already said that Jesus was his Son (Matthew 3:17), so Satan knew who Jesus was. He also knew that Jesus could make stones become bread and could throw himself off of high places and not be hurt. He was trying to make Jesus do these things and so disobey God and obey Satan. These words can be translated as "Show me your power if you are the Son of God" (See: satan and sonofgod)


Matthew 4

4:1-11

How was Jesus led by the Holy Spirit?

[4:1]

Jesus was led by the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit descended like a dove and rested on Jesus in Matthew 3:16. The Holy Spirit led Jesus into the wilderness to be tested to show Jesus completely obey God.

See: Test; Test

Where was the wilderness?

[4:1]

The wilderness was not far from where John was baptizing. The wilderness area had few or no people living in it. There was not much food and water in the wilderness.

See: Wilderness; Wilderness

Why did Jesus say that “man shall not live on bread alone”?

[4:4]

When Jesus said, “Man shall not live on bread alone,” he said the same thing Moses wrote (see: Deuteronomy 8:3). God gave manna to the people who followed Moses through the wilderness. This was a miracle which God used to teach the people that the word of God is more important than food.

Why did Satan say, God “will command his angels to take care of you”?

[4:6]

When Satan said that God “will command his angels to take care of you,” he said the same things written in Psalm 91:11-12. He told Jesus that if he were to throw himself down from the highest place of the temple, God would protect him. Satan wanted Jesus to forget that God the Father cared for Jesus.

See: God the Father; Angel; Temple; God the Father

Why did Jesus tell Satan, “You must not test the Lord your God”?

[4:7]

Jesus told Satan, “You must not test the Lord your God” because he understood that Satan wanted Jesus to not trust God the Father and to disobey God the Father. Jesus only wanted to serve and obey God the Father.

See: God the Father; Test; Lord; God the Father

Why did Satan want Jesus to worship him?

[4:9]

Satan wanted Jesus to forget about his loyalty to God the Father. If Jesus became loyal to Satan, then Jesus could have the entire world as his reward. Satan wanted Jesus to disobey God.

See: God the Father; God the Father

Why did Jesus say that someone should only worship God?

[4:10]

Jesus said that someone should only worship God because God alone was worthy to be worshipped.

See: Worship

See: Metaphor; Metaphor

Why did Peter and Andrew immediately follow Jesus?

[4:20]

Peter and Andrew left their jobs fishing to become disciples of Jesus. Matthew wrote that they immediately left their nets to follow Jesus. Some scholars think that Peter and Andrew had heard about Jesus before this. Other scholars do not think they heard about Jesus before this.

See: Disciple

Why were James and John mending their nets?

[4:21]

James and John mended their nets. Fishermen always mended their nets after they finished fishing because the nets would have holes or garbage in them. James and John were getting their nets ready so that they could fish again later or the next day.

Advice to translators: When someone mended their fishing net, they fixed any holes in the net.

Matthew 4:16

General Information:

Matthew quotes the prophet Isaiah to show that Jesus's ministry in Galilee was a fulfillment of prophecy.

The people who sat in darkness have seen a great light

Here "darkness" is a metaphor for not knowing the truth about God. And "light" is a metaphor for God's true message that saves people from their sin.

who sat ... who sat

"who were living ... who were living." The word "sat" is an idiom for having lived for a long time in one place, not to sitting on the ground or a piece of furniture.

to those who sat in the region and shadow of death, upon them has a light arisen

This basically has the same meaning as the first part of the sentence. Here "those who sat in the region and shadow of death" is a metaphor. It represents those who did not know God. These people were in danger of dying and being separated from God forever.

Matthew 4:17

the kingdom of heaven is near

"Jesus called John and James." This phrase also means that Jesus invited them to follow him, live with him, and become his disciples.

Matthew 4:22

they immediately left

"at that moment they left"

left the boat ... and followed him

It should be clear that they immediately put their nets down and left that place with Jesus. If your language requires you to tell whether they were leaving for the rest of the day or for a long time or for the rest of their lives, you should probably translate as they were leaving for the rest of their lives. It would be good to have a note saying that the Greek does not specify how long they would be gone.

Matthew 4:23

Connecting Statement:

This is the end of the part of the story about the beginning of Jesus's ministry in Galilee. The rest of this chapter summarizes what he did and how the people responded.

teaching in their synagogues

"teaching in the synagogues of the Galileans" or "teaching in the synagogues of those people"

preaching the gospel of the kingdom

Here "kingdom" refers to God's reign as king. Alternate translation: "preaching the good news that God will show himself as king"

Chapter 5

1 When Jesus saw the crowds, he went up on the mountain. When he had sat down, his disciples came to him. 2 He opened his mouth and taught them, saying,

 

    3 "Blessed are the poor in spirit,

         for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

    4 Blessed are those who mourn,

         for they will be comforted.

    5 Blessed are the meek,

         for they will inherit the earth.

    6 Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness,

         for they will be filled.

    7 Blessed are the merciful,

         for they will obtain mercy.

    8 Blessed are the pure in heart,

         for they will see God.

    9 Blessed are the peacemakers,

         for they will be called sons of God.

    10 Blessed are those who have been persecuted for righteousness' sake,

         for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

11 "Blessed are you when people insult you and persecute you and say all kinds of evil things against you falsely for my sake. 12 Rejoice and be glad, for great is your reward in heaven. For in this way people persecuted the prophets who lived before you.

13 "You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt has lost its taste, how can it be made salty again? It is never again good for anything except to be thrown out and trampled under people's feet. 14 You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden. 15 Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a basket, but rather on the lampstand, and it shines for everyone in the house. 16 Let your light shine before people in such a way that they see your good deeds and glorify your Father who is in heaven.

17 "Do not think that I have come to destroy the law or the prophets. I have come not to destroy them, but to fulfill them. 18 For truly I say to you that until heaven and earth pass away, not the smallest letter or the smallest part of a letter will in any way pass away from the law, until all things have been accomplished. 19 Therefore whoever breaks the least one of these commandments and teaches others to do so will be called least in the kingdom of heaven. But whoever keeps them and teaches them will be called great in the kingdom of heaven. 20 For I say to you that unless your righteousness exceeds the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, you will in no way enter the kingdom of heaven.

21 "You have heard that it was said to them in ancient times, 'Do not murder,' and, 'Whoever murders will be subject to judgment.' 22 But I say to you that everyone who is angry with his brother will be subject to judgment; and whoever says to his brother, 'You worthless person!' will be subject to the council; and whoever says, 'You fool!' will be subject to the fire of hell. 23 Therefore if you are offering your gift at the altar and there remember that your brother has anything against you, 24 leave your gift there in front of the altar, and go on your way. First be reconciled with your brother, and then come and offer your gift. 25 Agree with your adversary quickly while you are with him on the way to court, or your adversary may hand you over to the judge, and the judge may hand you over to the officer, and you may be thrown into prison. 26 Truly I say to you, you will never come out from there until you have paid the last penny you owe.

27 "You have heard that it was said, 'Do not commit adultery.' 28 But I say to you that everyone who looks on a woman to lust after her has already committed adultery with her in his heart. 29 If your right eye causes you to stumble, pluck it out and throw it away from you. For it is better for you that one of your members should perish than that your whole body should be thrown into hell. 30 If your right hand causes you to stumble, cut it off and throw it away from you. For it is better for you that one of your members should perish than that your whole body should go into hell. 31 It was also said, 'Whoever sends his wife away, let him give her a certificate of divorce.' 32 But I say to you that everyone who divorces his wife, except on account of sexual immorality, makes her an adulteress. Whoever marries her after she has been divorced commits adultery.

33 "Again, you have heard that it was said to those in ancient times, 'Do not swear a false oath, but carry out your oaths to the Lord.' 34 But I say to you, swear not at all, neither by heaven, for it is the throne of God; 35 nor by the earth, for it is the footstool for his feet; nor by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the great King. 36 Neither swear by your head, for you cannot make one hair white or black. 37 But let your speech be 'Yes, yes,' or 'No, no.' Anything that is more than this is from the evil one.

38 "You have heard that it was said, 'An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth.' 39 But I say to you, do not resist one who is evil. Instead, whoever strikes you on your right cheek, turn to him the other also. 40 If anyone wishes to bring a lawsuit against you and takes away your tunic, let that person also have your cloak. 41 Whoever compels you to go one mile, go with him two. 42 Give to anyone who asks you, and do not turn away from anyone who wishes to borrow from you.

43 "You have heard that it was said, 'You must love your neighbor and hate your enemy.' 44 But I say to you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, [1]45 so that you may be sons of your Father who is in heaven. For he makes his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the just and the unjust. 46 For if you love those who love you, what reward do you get? Do not even the tax collectors do the same thing? 47 If you greet only your brothers, what do you do more than others? Do not even the Gentiles do the same thing? 48 Therefore you must be perfect, as your heavenly Father is perfect.

Matthew 5 General Notes

Structure and formatting

Many people call the words in Matthew 5-7 the Sermon on the Mount. This is one long lesson that Jesus taught. Bibles divide this lesson into three chapters, but this can sometimes confuse the reader. If your translation divides the text into sections, be sure that the reader understands that the whole sermon is one large section.

Matthew 5:3-10, known as The Beatitudes or as The Blessings, has been set apart by being set farther to the right on the page than the rest of the text, with each line beginning with the word "blessed." This way of placing the words on the page highlights the poetic form of this teaching.

Jesus spoke about many different subjects in this sermon, so you may wish to help the reader by putting an empty line into the text whenever Jesus changed the subject.

Special concepts in this chapter

"His disciples"

It is possible to refer to anyone who followed Jesus as a follower or disciple. Jesus selected twelve of his followers to become his closest disciples, "the twelve disciples." They would later become known as the apostles.


Matthew 5

5:1-12

What is the “Sermon on the mount”?

[5:1]

In Matthew 5-7, Jesus taught people on the side of a mountain. Scholars call this the “sermon on the mount.” Scholars disagree about why Jesus taught these things.

  1. Some scholars think Jesus was teaching Christians how to live.
  2. Some scholars think Jesus was talking about how to make the whole world live in a way that honors God.
  3. Some scholars think Jesus was teaching people how to live in a way that honors God. If they did not live in this way, then they needed to believe in Jesus so they could be at peace with God.
  4. Some scholars think Jesus was teaching Christians how to live when he rules on the earth for 1000 years (see: Revelation 20:1-7).

See: Kingdom of God

Why does Jesus say “blessed” many times?

[5:3, 5:4, 5:5, 5:6, 5:7, 5:8, 5:9, 5:10, 5:11]

Jesus said the word “blessed” many times. He was talking about different people whom God blessed. God favored these people in some way.

Advice to translators: Some scholars call Matthew 5:3-7 the “Beatitudes.”

See: Luke 6:20-26

See: Bless (Blessing)

Who are the poor in spirit?

[5:3]

Jesus taught that God approved of those who were “poor.” Scholars think Jesus spoke of the spiritually poor (see: Matthew 5:3). That is, they knew their great need for God. These people trusted in Jesus and because of this were at peace with God. Because of this, they will inherit the kingdom of God.

See: Spirit (Spiritual); Kingdom of God; Spirit (Spiritual)

Who are those who mourn?

[5:4]

Jesus taught that God approved those who mourn. Some scholars think that Jesus spoke about people being sorry for their sins or the sins of other people. This sorrow caused them to weep. They repented. Other scholars think Jesus spoke about the evil of the world. This also caused Christians to weep. These scholars think Jesus spoke about the day when God gathers his people into his kingdom. There will be no mourning in the kingdom of God.

See: Kingdom of God; Kingdom of God

Who are the meek?

[5:5]

The meek are people who know they cannot do certain things without help. They know they cannot be at peace with God by themselves. They need Jesus. Because of this, they will inherit the earth. Some scholars think they will reign with Jesus on the earth (see: 2 Timothy 2:12). Other scholars think this was a metaphor. They will inherit the promises God gave to other people.

See: Kingdom of God; Metaphor; Kingdom of God

Who are the people who hunger and thirst for righteousness?

[5:6]

Jesus taught that God approved of those who were hungry. He wanted to say that those who were hungry and thirsty really wanted to do the things that God wanted them to do. Scholars think the words, “they will be filled” spoke about God’s promise to approve those who hungered for him in this way.

See: Righteous (Righteousness)

Who are the merciful?

[5:7]

The merciful are people who forgive other people. They forgive other people because God forgave them.

See: Forgive (Forgiveness, Pardon); Forgive (Forgiveness, Pardon)

Who are the pure in heart?

[5:8]

The pure in heart are those whom God has made clean. These people will live together with God in heaven forever.

See: Heart (Metaphor); Heaven; Heart (Metaphor)

Who are the peacemakers?

[5:9]

The peacemakers are people who try to be at peace with other people. They love other people because God loves all people. Because of this, they try to help people be at peace with God and with other people. They will be sons of God because they will be adopted into God’s family.

See: Family of God; Family of God

Who has been persecuted for righteousness’ sake?

[5:10]

Christians are persecuted by non-Christians. This is because they try to do the right things, things that honor God. People who reject Jesus do not like this and persecute Christians. Christians will inherit the kingdom of God.

See: Kingdom of God ; Inherit (Inheritance, Heir); Kingdom of God

How does God favor Christians when others persecute them?

[5:11]

Jesus said that God blesses people when other people do evil things to them. This is because God blesses Christians when they are persecuted. They are rewarded when they honor God and evil people punish them for it. They will be rewarded.

See: Punish (Punishment); Persecute (Persecution) ; Reward; Punish (Punishment)

What is a prophet?

[5:12]

See: Prophet

5:13-16

Why did Jesus compare Christians to salt?

[5:13]

Jesus compared Christians to salt. This was a metaphor. If salt stops being salt, then it does not do any good. Instead, it is thrown out. In the ancient world, salt was used to preserve food. Some scholars think Jesus wanted to say that if Christians do not do things that honor God, then they too are useless. Salt also makes people thirsty. Other scholars think Jesus wanted to say that Christians made people thirsty. This was a metaphor. They made non-Christians want to know more about God.

See: Metaphor

Why did Jesus compare Christians to light?

[5:14, 5:15, 5:16]

Jesus said that Christians were like light in some way. This was a metaphor. In ancient times, a light helped people know where to go. Christians are to help non-Christians know how to live in a way that honors God and how to be at peace with God. This is how they let their light shine before people. If non-Christians saw Christians loving other people and living in a way that honors God, then they would want to do the same.

See: Light and Darkness (Metaphor); Light and Darkness (Metaphor)

Why can a city on a hill not be hidden?

[5:14]

When a city is on the top of a hill. People can see it from far away. This is because there are lights in the city that cannot be hidden.

See: Light and Darkness (Metaphor); Light and Darkness (Metaphor)

Why do people not put a lamp under a basket?

[5:15]

People do not put a light under a basket because it would hide the light. If they did this, then people could not see the light. Therefore, they put the light on a lampstand so that other people can see the light.

See: Light and Darkness (Metaphor); Light and Darkness (Metaphor)

Who is your father in heaven?

[5:16]

Christians have a father in heaven. This is God. He lives in heaven.

See: Heaven; Heaven

5:17-20

How did Jesus come to fulfill the law and the prophets?

[5:17]

Jesus said that he did not come to destroy the law and the prophets. Rather, he came to fulfill them. Jesus was speaking about the Old Testament. He did not reject the things taught in the Old Testament. Instead, he fulfilled the many prophecies about the messiah in the Old Testament.

See: Messiah (Christ); Old Testament (Law and Prophets); Prophecy (Prophesy) ; Messiah (Christ)

Did Jesus say that the Law of Moses will remain until the end of the world?

[5:18]

Jesus said that the Law will not pass away until all things have been accomplished. He was speaking about the Law of Moses. Nothing in the Law of Moses would “pass away” until certain things were fulfilled. He was not saying that the heaven and the earth will end before these things happen. Instead, the Law of Moses would remain until he lived a perfect life and died for the sins of those who believe in him. Some scholars think that after this, the Law of Moses ended. Other scholars think that Christians obey certain parts of the Law of Moses.

See: Atone (Atonement); Fulfill (Fulfillment); Heaven; Sin; Atone (Atonement)

What is a jot and tittle?

[5:18]

When Jesus spoke about the jot and tittle, he was talking about Hebrew letters. He wanted to say that not one letter will change of the Old Testament until certain things happened.

Who taught other people to break certain commandments?

[5:19]

Jesus taught that certain people taught other people to break certain commandments in the Law of Moses. In ancient Israel, there were Jewish teachers who taught these things. However, Jesus said that, at this time, the Jews must obey every commandment in the Law of Moses.

See: Law of Moses; Law of Moses

How are people least and greatest in the kingdom of God?

[5:19]

Jesus said that certain people will be least in the kingdom of heaven and other people will be greatest in the kingdom of heaven. They will be rewarded. However, he does not say how certain people will be rewarded and other people will not be rewarded.

See: Reward; Reward

How does someone enter into the kingdom of heaven?

[5:20]

People will enter into the kingdom of heaven. However, they need to be righteous to enter the kingdom of God. They need to be more righteous than the scribes and pharisees. People thought the scribes and pharisees were the most righteous. The righteousness that Jesus talked about was not something that people could do. Rather, it could only be given. Jesus lived a perfect life. After he did this, he gave this to Christians in some way so they could be at peace with God and enter into the kingdom of heaven.

See: Righteous (Righteousness); Scribe; Pharisees; Righteous (Righteousness)

5:21-26

What did the Jewish teachers teach the people?

[5:21]

The Jewish teachers taught people that it was evil to kill other people. Jesus explained to them that it was wrong to kill someone. However, there were many other wrong things that happened before someone killed another person. Before they killed someone, they were angry with the other person. This was sin. God judges this sin too.

See: Judge (Judgment); Judge (Judgment)

Why did someone say “you worthless person”?

[5:22]

When someone said, “you worthless person,” this was a great insult. The Jewish leaders might judge this person. However, if someone said a small insult, Jesus said they might go to hell. This is because everyone who sins deserves to go to hell and live there forever. However, if someone believes in Jesus their sins are forgiven and they will not go to hell.

See: Judge (Judgment); Sin; Judge (Judgment)

How did Jesus want people to make sacrifices to God?

[5:23, 5:24]

Jesus did not want someone to offer a sacrifice to God if they were angry with someone else. He wanted people to be at peace with others before they made a sacrifice to God. This is because God wanted people to love one another more than he wanted a sacrifice. After they were at peace with other people, then they should make a sacrifice to God.

See: Offer (Offering); Sacrifice

Why did Jesus talk about going to court?

[5:25]

Jesus talked about going to court. This was a type of parable. People should be afraid to go to court when someone is angry with them. If they do this, then the judge may punish them greatly. Because of this, they should make peace with the other person before they are judged. In the same way, people should make peace with other people before God judges them. They should also make peace with God before God judges them.

See: Punish (Punishment); Ancient Trials (Lawsuit); Judge (Judgment); Punish (Punishment)

5:27-32

How does someone commit adultery?

[5:27]

Jesus spoke about committing adultery. Someone commits adultery when they have sex with someone they are not married to. However, Jesus said that people also commit adultery before they have sex with someone else. They do this when they think about and want to have sex with this person. They sin when they desire to have sex with this person.

See: Sexual Immorality; Sexual Immorality

Did Jesus want people to pluck out their eyes?

[5:29]

Jesus said that people should pluck out their eyes. This was a metaphor. He wanted to say that it was better for them to not have eyes than to sin with their eyes.

See: Sin; Sin

Who will be thrown into hell?

[5:29]

Certain people will be sent to hell. Everyone who sins will be sent to hell unless they believe in Jesus.

See: Sin; Sin

What is a certificate of divorce?

[5:31]

In ancient times, a certificate of divorce is a piece of paper that was given to a woman after she was divorced. This helped her to marry another man. Many people did this in ancient Israel. However, if people did this, then they caused the woman and the man who remarried her to commit adultery. This is unless the husband committed sexual immorality.

See: 1 Corinthians 7:15

See: Sexual Immorality; Adultery; Sexual Immorality

5:33-37

What is false oath?

[5:33]

A false oath is a promise someone makes but they do not do the things they promised to do.

See: Swear (Oath)

How does someone carry out an oath to the Lord?

[5:33]

Jesus spoke about carrying an oath to the Lord. He was speaking about making a promise as if someone was making a promise to God.

See: Lord; Lord

Why did Jesus not want people to make oaths?

[5:34, 5:35]

Jesus did not want people to make oaths. In ancient times, people swore to many different things. The Jewish teachers had many rules about how someone could make an oath and break an oath. However, Jesus did not want people to swear by anything. If they made any promise and did not do it, then they sinned. He wanted people to do the things they promised to do.

See: Sin; Sin

Who is the evil one?

[5:37]

The evil one is Satan, or the devil (see: Matthew 4:1).

See: Satan (The Devil)

5:38-48

What is an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth?

[5:38]

In the Law of Moses, it said that people were to be punished in a certain way (see: Exodus 21:23-24). People were not supposed to punish people more than the wrong they did to be punished. The Law of Moses protected people from being punished too much. However, Jesus taught that Christians do not need to punish people when people wrong them. Instead, they can forgive other people because God forgave them.

See: Punish (Punishment); Punish (Punishment)

Who said that people were supposed to hate their enemies?

[5:43]

The Pharisees taught that people were supposed to love other people, but to hate their enemies. However, Jesus taught that Christians are to pray for those who persecute them. This is because God will reward Christians for honoring God when they are persecuted. However, they should pray for the people who persecute them so they can come to believe in Jesus.

See: Reward ;Pharisees; Reward

What did Matthew say in verse 44?

[5:44]

Some ancient copies of the Greek New Testament contain the words, “bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you.” More and older copies of the Greek New Testament do not have these words. Scholars do not think Matthew wrote these words.

See: Bless (Blessing)

How is someone a son of the Father in heaven?

[5:45]

Christians are children of God. They are sons of God the Father in heaven. Here, Jesus was saying that Christians do the things that God the Father wants them to do when he said they were sons of the Father in heaven.

See: Heaven; God the Father; Heaven

Why did Jesus talk about the sun and the rain?

[5:45]

Jesus talked about the sun and the rain. He wanted to say that God is gracious to Christians and non-Christians. He shows everyone some favor. Because of this, Christians should do the same.

See: Grace

What were tax collectors?

[5:46]

People in Israel hated the tax collectors because they thought they were evil. Tax collectors were Jews who worked for the Roman government. They paid the Romans so they could collect taxes from other people. If they collected more taxes than they paid the Roman government, then they were allowed to keep it. Because of this, many tax collectors became rich. The Jews thought a Jewish tax collector betrayed the Jewish people because they took money from the Jews and gave it to the Romans. They thought tax collectors were evil because they took money from people who honored God and gave it to people who rejected God.

See: Tax (Tax Collector, Toll)

What did Jesus want Christians to do?

[5:47]

Jesus wanted Christians to do more good things than other people. They needed to do more good things that evil people.

See: Gentile

How does God want people to live?

[5:48]

God wants people to be perfect. That is, he wants people to always do good things. While no one is able to do this except Jesus, this is what God wants.

pluck it out

This is an exaggerated command for a person to do whatever he needs to do to stop sinning. It means "forcefully remove it" or "destroy it."

But I say

Jesus agrees with God and his word, but he does not agree with the way the religious leaders have applied God's word. The "I" is emphatic.

See how you translated this in Matthew 5:22.

swear not at all

"do not swear at all" or "do not swear by anything"

it is the throne of God

Because God reigns from heaven, Jesus speaks of heaven as if it were a throne. Alternate translation: "it is from here that God rules"

Matthew 5:35

Connecting Statement:

Jesus finishes his words from verse 34, telling the people not to swear.

nor by the earth ... city of the great King

Here Jesus means that when people make a promise or when they say that something is true, they must not swear by anything. Some people were teaching that if a person swears by God that he will do something, then he must do it, but if he swears by something else, such as by heaven or earth, then it is less offensive if he does not do what he swore to do. Jesus says that swearing by heaven or earth or Jerusalem is just as serious as swearing by God because those things all belong to God.

it is the footstool for his feet

This metaphor means the earth also belongs to God. Alternate translation: "it is like a footstool where a king rests his feet"

one who is evil

"an evil person" or "someone who harms you"

turn to him the other also

"let him hit your other cheek also"

Matthew 5:40

let that person also have

"give also to that person"

Matthew 5:41

General Information:

Jesus is talking to a group of people about what they as individuals should and should not do. The word "you" is singular, as is the understood "you" in the command "go." In some languages these may need to be translated as plural.

Whoever

"Anyone who." The context implies that he is speaking about a Roman soldier.

one mile

This is one thousand paces, which is the distance a Roman soldier could legally force someone to carry something for him. If "mile" is confusing, it can be translated as "one kilometer" or "a distance."

with him

This refers to the one who compels you to go.

go with him two

"go the mile he forces you to go, and then go another mile." If "mile" is confusing, you can translate it as "two kilometers" or "twice as far."

All instances of "you" and "your," as well as the command to pray, are plural.

Chapter 6

1 "Watch out that you do not do your acts of righteousness before people to be seen by them, or else you will have no reward from your Father who is in heaven. 2 So when you give alms, do not sound a trumpet before yourself as the hypocrites do in the synagogues and in the streets, so that they may be glorified by people. Truly I say to you, they have received their reward in full. 3 But when you give alms, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing 4 so that your alms may be given in secret. Then your Father who sees in secret will reward you.

5 "When you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to stand and pray in the synagogues and on the street corners so that they may be seen by people. Truly I say to you, they have received their reward. 6 But you, when you pray, enter your inner chamber. Shut the door and pray to your Father, who is in secret. Then your Father who sees in secret will reward you. 7 When you pray, do not make useless repetitions as the pagans do, for they think that they will be heard because of their many words. 8 Therefore, do not be like them, for your Father knows what things you need before you ask him.

9 Therefore pray like this:

 

     'Our Father in heaven,

         may your name be honored as holy.

    10 May your kingdom come.

     May your will be done

         on earth as it is in heaven.

    11 Give us today our daily bread.

    12 Forgive us our debts,

         as we also have forgiven our debtors.

    13 Do not bring us into temptation,

         but deliver us from the evil one.' [1]

14 For if you forgive people their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you. 15 But if you do not forgive their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.

16 "When you fast, do not have a sad face as the hypocrites do, for they disfigure their faces so that they may appear to people to be fasting. Truly I say to you, they have received their reward in full. 17 But you, when you fast, anoint your head and wash your face 18 so that you may not appear to people to be fasting, but only to your Father who is in secret; and your Father who sees in secret will reward you.

19 "Do not store up for yourselves treasures on the earth, where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. 20 Instead, store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys, and where thieves do not break in and steal. 21 For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also. 22 The eye is the lamp of the body. Therefore, if your eye is good, the whole body is filled with light. 23 But if your eye is bad, your whole body is full of darkness. Therefore, if the light that is in you is actually darkness, how great is that darkness! 24 No one can serve two masters, for either he will hate the one and love the other, or else he will be devoted to one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and wealth. 25 Therefore I say to you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink; or about your body, what you will wear. For is not life more than food, and the body more than clothes? 26 Look at the birds in the sky. They do not sow or reap or gather into barns, but your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not more valuable than they are? 27 Which one of you by being anxious can add one cubit to his lifespan? 28 Why are you anxious about clothing? Think about the lilies in the fields, how they grow. They do not labor, and they do not spin cloth. 29 Yet I say to you, even Solomon in all his glory was not clothed like one of these. 30 If God so clothes the grass in the fields, which exists today and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, how much more will he clothe you, you of little faith? 31 Therefore do not be anxious and say, 'What will we eat?' or 'What will we drink?' or 'What clothes will we wear?' 32 For the Gentiles search for these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them. 33 But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you. 34 Therefore, do not be anxious for tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Each day has enough evil of its own.

Matthew 6 General Notes

Structure and formatting

Matthew 6 continues Jesus's extended teaching known as "The Sermon on the Mount."

You may wish to set apart the prayer in 6:9-11 by placing it farther to the right on the page than the rest of the text.

Jesus spoke about many different subjects in this sermon, so you may wish to help the reader by putting an empty line into the text whenever Jesus changed the subject.


Matthew 6

6:1-4

Why did Jesus not want people to do good things in certain ways?

[6:1]

Jesus did not want people to do good things so that other people could see them doing good things. If they do this, other people will reward them. They received their full reward when other people saw them and praised them for it. However, God will not reward them.

See: Praise; Praise

Why did people give alms?

[6:2, 6:3, 6:4]

When someone gave alms, they gave money to people who needed it. When people did this, they should not sound a trumpet. That is, they are not to announce they are giving money to poor people when they do this.

What is a hypocrite?

[6:2]

A hypocrite is someone who says one thing but does something else.

See: Hypocrisy (Hypocirte)

What is a synagogue?

[6:2]

See: Synagogue

How is someone not supposed to let their left hand know what their right hand is doing?

[6:3]

Jesus spoke about having someone’s left hand not know what their right hand is doing. When he said this, he wanted people to do things secretly, that is, without other people knowing about it. If they did this, then only God would know. Then God would reward them.

See: Reward

6:5-15

Who are the hypocrites?

[6:5]

Jesus spoke about hypocrites. He was speaking about certain Jewish teachers. These teachers did things so that many people could see them and think that they greatly honored God. This was their reward, other people thought these Jewish teachers honored God. However, they did not honor God when they did this and God did not reward them.

See: Reward; Reward

What is an inner chamber?

[6:6]

Jesus spoke about an inner chamber. This is a place inside a person’s home. He wanted people to go to a place where no one else could see them. When people do this, God will reward them.

See: Reward

What is a useless repetition?

[6:7]

In ancient times, people who worshipped many gods would pray in a certain way. When they prayed, they would say the same things over and over again. They did this so that their false gods would pay attention to them so they could tell these gods what they need. This was not how Jesus wanted people to pray. God knows what people want when they pray. However, Jesus still wanted people to pray.

See: Pray (Prayer); Pray (Prayer)

What is the Lord’s prayer?

[6:9]

Jesus taught people to pray in Matthew 6:9-13. Scholars call this the “Lord’s prayer.”

Who is “our father in heaven”?

[6:9]

Jesus spoke about “our father in heaven.” God is the father of Christians and he lives in heaven.

See: Family of God; Heaven; Family of God

What is holy?

[6:9]

See: Holy (Holiness, Set Apart)

Why did Jesus say, “may your kingdom come”?

[6:10]

Jesus prayed for the kingdom of God to come. He wanted Christians to pray for this to happen soon.

See: Pray (Prayer); Pray (Prayer)

What is the will of God?

[6:10]

See: Will of God

Why did Jesus pray for daily bread?

[6:11]

God gave the disciples daily bread by providing for everything they needed. Bread was a metaphor for food. That is, it included any food the disciples needed. Some scholars say it also included everything else the disciples needed for living. That is, God provided clothing, housing, and everything else they needed. Other scholars say bread was a metaphor for the things in heaven God will give to them.

See: Heaven; Metaphor; Heaven

Why should Christians pray to have their debts forgiven?

[6:12]

In ancient Israel, people thought that sins created a kind of debt where someone owed someone else. God’s forgiveness of the disciples’ sins was related to the disciples forgiveness of sins people did against them because God wanted the disciples to love other people. God did not forgive the disciples’ sins because they did good things. God forgave them because of his mercy. However, when the disciples prayed and asked God to forgive their sins, they needed to be ready to forgive sins people did against them.

See: Pray (Prayer); Disciple; Redeem (Redemption); Forgive (Forgiveness, Pardon); Mercy; Pray (Prayer)

How did Jesus use the word “temptation”?

[6:13]

Some scholars say Jesus when he used the word “temptation”(πειρασμός/g3986) he was thinking about sin. Other scholars say Jesus was thinking about testing. That is, persecution or suffering the disciples had.

See: Persecute (Persecution); Tempt (Temptation); Test; Persecute (Persecution)

Who is the evil one?

[6:13]

Satan, or the devil (see: Matthew 4:1), is the evil one.

See: Satan (The Devil)

What did Matthew write in verse 13?

[6:13]

Some ancient copies of the Greek New Testament contain the words “for yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen.” More and older ancient copies of the Greek New Testament do not have these words. Therefore, scholars do not think Matthew wrote these words.

See: Glory (Glorify); Glory (Glorify)

Why did Jesus speak about trespasses?

[6:14, 6:15]

In verses 14 and 15, Jesus spoke about trespasses. He was saying the same thing he said in verse 12. A trespass is something someone does that goes against the law or against God in some way. It is sin.

See: Sin

6:16-18

What is fasting?

[6:16, 6:17, 6:18]

See: Fasting

Who were the hypocrites?

[6:16]

Jesus spoke about hypocrites. He was speaking about Jewish teachers. They fasted so that people could see them fast and think these teachers did things to honor God.

See: Fasting; Fasting

Why did Jesus tell people to wash when they fasted?

[6:17]

Jesus wanted people to anoint or wash their face and head when they fasted. This was the opposite of what the Jewish leaders did. If they did this, they did not look like they were hungry. He did not want other people to know they were worshipping God in this way. If they did this, God would reward them.

See: Worship; Anoint (Anointing); Reward; Worship

6:19-34

Why did Jesus talk about treasures?

[6:19, 6:20, 6:21]

Jesus talked about treasures. Treasures are things people keep that are very valuable. Jesus did not want people to collect things that were valuable on the earth. This is because they did not last long. They were destroyed or someone took them. He wanted people to not care very much about the things they had on the earth. They only have these things while they are alive. Instead, they should store treasures in heaven. This is a metaphor. They should collect rewards from God. These rewards will last forever.

See: Heaven; Metaphor; Heaven

Why did Jesus talk about someone’s eyes?

[6:22, 6:23]

Jesus talked about a person’s eye. He said it was like a lamp. A person uses their eyes to see, which helps them know where they are going. A lamp shines a light so that a person can see where they are going. A person’s eye shows what is important to them because it will be the thing they look at the most. In this way, the eye works like a lamp to show a person what is most important to them.

See: Light and Darkness (Metaphor)

Why did Jesus talk about serving God and wealth?

[6:24]

Jesus talked about serving God and wealth. He wanted to say that people could only truly serve one master. He wanted people to serve God completely. However, many people served money instead. This was a metaphor. For these people money was a type of false god. They could not serve God and this false god at the same time.

See: False gods

How long is a cubit?

[6:27]

Jesus spoke about adding a cubit to how long one lives. This was a short length of time. He wanted to say that no one could make themselves live any longer. This is because only God can do this.

See: Cubit

How is someone anxious?

[6:27, 6:28]

A person is anxious when he is worried about something. A person can be anxious about things like not having enough money or food. Who was Solomon?

Solomon was the most powerful king of ancient Israel. He had a lot of money and built many great things in Israel.

Why did Jesus ask so many questions?

[6:31]

Jesus asked many questions, but he did not expect anyone to answer him. He wanted people to know that God cares more for people than anything else he created. He would care for them and give people everything they need. He corrected them and said they have “little faith.” That is, they did not trust in God very much.

See: Faith (Believe in)

Why did Jesus talk about the Gentiles?

[6:32]

Jesus talked about the Gentiles being anxious about getting the things they need to live. This was because they did not know God and they did not know He would provide for them. Jesus wanted Christians to trust in God for these things because he promised to give them the things they need. Instead, they are to be concerned about other things. That is, they were to think about how to honor God and teaching other people about Jesus.

See: Gentile

How do people seek first the kingdom and God’s righteousness?

[6:33]

Jesus spoke about seeking first the kingdom of God and God’s righteousness. He wanted Christians to think about how they could serve God and his kingdom and how they could do things that honor him.

See: Righteous (Righteousness); Righteous (Righteousness)

if your eye is bad

This does not refer to magic. Jewish people often used this as a metaphor for someone who is greedy.

your whole body is full of darkness

Possible meanings are "you are full of evil" or 2) "you will understand nothing about what is right."

if the light that is in you is actually darkness, how great is that darkness!

Matthew 6:24

for either he will hate the one and love the other, or else he will be devoted to one and despise the other

Chapter 7

1 "Do not judge, and you will not be judged. 2 For with the judgment you judge, you will be judged, and with the measure that you measure, it will be measured out to you. 3 Why do you look at the tiny piece of straw that is in your brother's eye, but you do not take notice of the log that is in your own eye? 4 How can you say to your brother, 'Let me take out the piece of straw that is in your eye,' while the log is in your own eye? 5 You hypocrite! First take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take out the piece of straw that is in your brother's eye. 6 Do not give what is holy to the dogs, and do not throw your pearls in front of the pigs. Otherwise they may trample them underfoot, and then turn and tear you to pieces.

7 "Ask, and it will be given to you. Seek, and you will find. Knock, and it will be opened to you. 8 For everyone who asks, receives; everyone who seeks, finds; and to the person who knocks, it will be opened. 9 Or which one of you, if his son asks for a loaf of bread, will give him a stone? 10 Or if he asks for a fish, will give him a snake? 11 Therefore, if you who are evil know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give good things to those who ask him? 12 Therefore, whatever things you want people to do to you, you should also do to them, for this is the law and the prophets.

13 "Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many people who go through it. 14 But the gate is narrow and the way is difficult that leads to life, and there are few who find it.

15 "Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep's clothing but are truly ravenous wolves. 16 By their fruits you will know them. Do people gather grapes from a thornbush or figs from thistles? 17 In the same way, every good tree produces good fruit, but the bad tree produces bad fruit. 18 A good tree cannot produce bad fruit, nor can a bad tree produce good fruit. 19 Every tree that does not produce good fruit is chopped down and thrown into the fire. 20 So then, you will recognize them by their fruits. 21 Not everyone who says to me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter into the kingdom of heaven, but only those who do the will of my Father who is in heaven. 22 Many people will say to me in that day, 'Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, in your name drive out demons, and in your name do many miracles?' 23 Then will I openly declare to them, 'I never knew you! Get away from me, you who practice lawlessness!'

24 "Therefore, everyone who hears my words and obeys them will be like a wise man who built his house upon a rock. 25 The rain came down, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat upon that house, but it did not fall down, for it was founded on the rock. 26 But everyone who hears my words and does not obey them will be like a foolish man who built his house upon the sand. 27 The rain came down, the floods came, and the winds blew and struck that house, and it fell, and its destruction was complete."

28 It came about that when Jesus finished speaking these words, the crowds were astonished by his teaching, 29 for he taught them as one who had authority, and not as their scribes.


Matthew 7 General Notes

Structure and formatting

Jesus spoke about many different subjects in this sermon, so you may wish to help the reader by putting an empty line into the text whenever Jesus changed the subject.

Special concepts in this chapter

Matthew 5-7

Many people call the words in Matthew 5-7 the Sermon on the Mount. This is one long lesson that Jesus taught. Bibles divide this lesson into three chapters, but this can sometimes confuse the reader. If your translation divides the text into sections, be sure that the reader understands that the whole sermon is one large section.

"By their fruits you will know them"

Fruit is a common image in the scriptures. It is used to describe the results of either good or bad actions. In this chapter, good fruit is the result of living as God commands. (See: fruit)


Matthew 7

7:1-14

Why did Jesus not want Christians to judge one another?

[7:1, 7:2]

Jesus did not want Christians to judge one another. That is, Christians should not condemn other people. This is something that God does. Scholars think that when Christians do this, God will condemn them. God will condemn Christians as severely as Christians condemn other people. However, he did not say that Christians should not judge other Christian’s actions to know whether they were doing right or wrong. Also, this does not mean that these Christians will not get to live forever in heaven with God.

See: Heaven; Heaven

Why did Jesus speak about a piece of straw and a log?

[7:3, 7:4, 7:5]

Jesus said that Christians should remove the log from their own eye before they try to remove a piece of straw from their brother’s eye. A log is a large piece of wood. This was a metaphor. He wanted Christians to judge themselves before they judge other people. That is, they should know they are doing the right things before they say other people are doing the wrong things.

See: Judge (Judgment); Metaphor; Judge (Judgment)

Why should people not give holy things to dogs and pearls to pigs?

[7:6]

Jesus said that people should not give holy things to dogs and pearls to pigs. That is, they should not give holy things to unholy people. This was a metaphor. In ancient Israel, dogs and pigs were unclean animals. Jesus was not just talking about not condemning other people. Here, some scholars think he wanted the Christians to stop teaching the truth of the gospel to those who were condemning them and rejecting the gospel, the messiah, and the kingdom of God. These people may kill those who tell them about Jesus.

See: Condemn (Condemnation); Metaphor; Clean and Unclean; Gospel; Messiah (Christ); Kingdom of God; Condemn (Condemnation)

Will Jesus give anything that is asked for to Christians?

[7:7, 7:8]

Jesus talked about God wanting to give things to Christians. He wanted Christians to ask God for things they wanted. However, God would not give them everything they asked. Instead, he would give it to them if it was his will.

Christians were to trust that God would give them what they need and whatever was best for them. Evil people still help their children. God loves Christians more than evil people love their children. Because of this, Christians can trust that God will give them whatever he knows is best for them.

See: Family of God; Family of God

What things should Christians do for others if they want others to do things for them?

[7:12]

Jesus said that Christians should do things for others in the same way they want others to do things for them. This meant that a Christian must treat people in the way they themselves want to be treated. This included Jesus’ command that Christians must love their neighbor.

See: Matthew 22:35-40

What is the law and the prophets?

[7:12]

See: Old Testament (Law and Prophets)

Why did Jesus say about wide and narrow gates?

[7:13, 7:14]

Jesus talked about wide and narrow gates. Wide gates were easy to get through and narrow gates were hard to get through. This was a metaphor. Jesus wanted to say that it was difficult to do things to honor God, but it is easy to sin and do things that dishonor God. He also wanted to say that it was easy for people to reject him, and difficult for people to believe in him.

See: Sin; Sin

7:15-23

How were false prophets like wolves in sheep’s clothing?

[7:15]

Jesus compared false prophets to wolves dressed to look like sheep. This was a metaphor. These wolves dress like sheep to make the sheep think they were also sheep so they could eat them. Jesus wanted to say that false prophets tried to do things that made people think they were Christians who honored God. However, they really were false teachers and trying to harm these Christians.

See: Metaphor; Metaphor

How will people know the false prophets?

[7:16]

Jesus said that people will know the false prophets by their fruit. They are like a tree that produces bad fruit. This was a metaphor. People will know they are false prophets because they live in a way that dishonors God. In the same way, true prophets will live in a way that honors God.

Jesus also talked about destroying the bad tree. He wanted people to know that the false prophets would die and be punished. They would live in hell forever.

See: Punish (Punishment); Metaphor; Fruit (Metaphor); Prophet; Hell; Punish (Punishment)

Who will enter into the kingdom of Heaven?

[7:21]

Jesus said that everyone who calls Jesus their master in that day will enter the kingdom of heaven. Some scholars think Jesus was talking about a future time when Jesus will judge the false prophets. They will not be allowed to enter into the kingdom of heaven. While they said they did many things to serve Jesus, Jesus knew why they did the things they did and that they did not do anything to serve Jesus. Instead, they did lawlessness. That is, they did things Satan wanted them to do.

See: Satan (The Devil); Demon Possession (Casting Out Demons); Miracle; Satan (The Devil)

7:24-29

Why did Jesus talk about someone building their house?

[7:24]

Jesus spoke about someone building a house. This was a metaphor. In ancient Israel, people wanted to build their houses on rocks. This protected their houses from falling. If they built their houses on sand, they would be destroyed by the wind and rain. This was a metaphor. People who do the things the false prophets taught would be punished. However, people who did things God taught in the word of God were not punished.

See: False Prophet; False Prophet

Why did the scribes teach without authority?

[7:29]

When Jesus taught these things, he knew they were true. The scribes taught many different things and did not agree with one another. Therefore, when they taught, they did not teach as if they knew the things they taught were true. Therefore, people did not know whether to believe them.

See: Scribe

the log that is in your own eye

Chapter 8

1 When Jesus had come down from the hill, large crowds followed him. 2 Behold, a leper came to him and bowed before him, saying, "Lord, if you are willing, you can make me clean."

3 Jesus reached out his hand and touched him, saying, "I am willing. Be clean." Immediately he was cleansed of his leprosy. 4 Jesus said to him, "See that you say nothing to any man. Go on your way, show yourself to the priest, and offer the gift that Moses commanded, for a testimony to them."

5 When he was coming into Capernaum, a centurion came to him, begging him 6 and saying, "Lord, my servant lies at home paralyzed and in terrible agony."

7 Then Jesus said to him, "I will come and heal him."

8 The centurion answered and said, "Lord, I am not worthy that you should enter under my roof. Only say the word and my servant will be healed. 9 For I also am a man under authority, and I have soldiers under me. I say to this one, 'Go,' and he goes, and to another one, 'Come,' and he comes, and to my servant, 'Do this,' and he does it."

10 When Jesus heard this, he was amazed and said to those who were following him, "Truly I say to you, I have not found anyone with such faith in Israel. 11 I tell you, many will come from the east and the west, and they will recline at the table with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, in the kingdom of heaven. 12 But the sons of the kingdom will be cast out into the outer darkness, where there will be weeping and grinding of teeth." 13 Jesus said to the centurion, "Go! As you have believed, so may it be done for you." And the servant was healed at that very hour.

14 When Jesus had come into Peter's house, he saw Peter's mother-in-law lying sick with a fever. 15 Jesus touched her hand, and the fever left her. Then she got up and started serving him. 16 When evening had come, the people brought to Jesus many who were possessed by demons. He drove out the spirits with a word and healed all who were sick. 17 This was to fulfill what was spoken through Isaiah the prophet, saying,

 

     "He took our illnesses

         and bore our diseases."

18 Now when Jesus saw the crowd around him, he gave instructions to leave for the other side of the Sea of Galilee. 19 Then a scribe came to him and said, "Teacher, I will follow you wherever you go."

20 Jesus said to him, "Foxes have holes, and the birds of the sky have nests, but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay his head."

21 Another of the disciples said to him, "Lord, allow me first to go and bury my father."

22 But Jesus said to him, "Follow me, and leave the dead to bury their own dead."

23 When Jesus had entered a boat, his disciples followed him into it. 24 Behold, there arose a great storm on the sea, so that the boat was covered with the waves. But Jesus was asleep. 25 The disciples came to him and woke him up, saying, "Save us, Lord; we are perishing!"

26 Jesus said to them, "Why are you afraid, you of little faith?" Then he got up and rebuked the winds and the sea. Then there was a great calm.

27 The men marveled and said, "What sort of man is this, that even the winds and the sea obey him?"

28 When Jesus had come to the other side and to the country of the Gadarenes, two men who were possessed by demons met him. They were coming out of the tombs and were very violent, so that no traveler could pass that way. 29 Behold, they cried out and said, "What do we have to do with you, Son of God? Have you come here to torment us before the set time?"

30 Now a herd of many pigs was there feeding, not too far away from them. 31 The demons kept pleading with Jesus and saying, "If you cast us out, send us away into that herd of pigs."

32 Jesus said to them, "Go!" The demons came out and went into the pigs; and behold, the whole herd rushed down the steep hill into the sea and they died in the water. 33 Those who had been tending the pigs ran away and they went into the city and reported everything, especially what had happened to the men who had been possessed by demons. 34 Behold, all the city came out to meet Jesus. When they saw him, they begged him to leave their region.


Matthew 8 General Notes

Structure and formatting

This chapter begins a new section.

Special concepts in this chapter

Miracles

Jesus performed miracles to show that he could control things that no other people could control. He also showed that it is proper to worship him because he performed miracles. (See: authority)


Matthew 8

8:1-9

Why did the leper bow before Jesus?

[8:2]

A leper bowed before Jesus. He did this to honor Jesus. He believed that Jesus could heal him and make him clean.

See: Clean and Unclean; Clean and Unclean

Why did Jesus touch the leper?

[8:3]

Jesus touched the leper. This would have been shocking. When someone touches a leper, they can become a leper too. When someone touched a leper, they became unclean (see: Leviticus 5:3). However, Jesus healed this man when he touched him and made him clean.

See: Clean and Unclean; Clean and Unclean

Why did Jesus tell the leper not to tell anyone he had been healed?

[8:4]

See: Messianic Secret

Why did the leper go to the priest?

[8:4]

According to the Law of Moses, the leper needed to go to the priest after he was healed to be declared clean (see: Leviticus 14:2-8). He wanted this man to go to the priest so they priest would see him and know that Jesus healed the leper. No one had been healed of leprosy in a very long time (see: Numbers 12). When they saw this man, the priests should have known that Jesus is the messiah.

See: Messiah (Christ), Leprosy (Leper); Clean and Unclean; Priest (Priesthood); Messiah (Christ)

Where was Capernaum?

[8:5]

See Map: Capernaum

What was a centurion?

[8:5]

A centurion was a type of Roman soldier. They led 100 soldiers.

Why did the centurion think that he was not worthy to have Jesus in his home?

[8:8]

This centurion believed that Jesus deserves great honor. He deserved so much honor, that he thought he was too great to enter into his home. He thought that this would dishonor him in some way. This man knew that God gave Jesus permission to do many things. He even believed that his servant could be healed when Jesus spoke.

8:10-17

Why was Jesus amazed at the centurion?

[8:10]

Jesus was amazed at the centurion man. He was a powerful man and he was a Gentile. Despite this, he trusted in Jesus and believed he had great power from God. This is what the Jews should have believed about Jesus, but they did not.

See: Gentile

Who will eat at the table in the kingdom of heaven?

[8:11]

Jesus said people from all over the world will eat at the table with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob in the kingdom of heaven. That is, Gentiles from all over the world will believe in Jesus and be in the kingdom of heaven with the Jews who believe in Jesus. However, the sons of the kingdom, that is, the unbelieving Jews, would not be in the kingdom of heaven. That is, many Jews would not be in the kingdom because they reject Jesus.

See: Kingdom of God; Kingdom of God

Who was Peter’s mother-in-law?

[8:14]

Matthew wrote about Peter’s mother-in-law, that is, the mother of Peter’s wife. Some scholars think Peter was married at this time. Fewer scholars think Peter was married before he began to follow Jesus and his wife died before he met Jesus.

Why did Matthew write that this woman got up and started serving Jesus?

[8:15]

Matthew wrote that this woman got up and served Jesus after he healed her. When he wrote this, people knew that Jesus healed her immediately and completely when he touched her. She did not get better over a long period of time.

What was demon possession?

[8:16]

See: Demon Possession (Casting Out Demons)

How did Jesus drive out spirits?

[8:16]

Matthew wrote that Jesus drove out spirits. That is, Jesus cast out demons from people by speaking to them.

See: Demon Possession (Casting Out Demons))

Where did Isaiah say these words?

[8:17]

Isaiah said these words many years before Jesus was born (see: Isaiah 53:4). When Jesus healed people, Matthew wrote that it fulfilled Isaiah’s prophecy.

See: Prophecy (Prophesy); Prophecy (Prophesy)

8:18-34

Where was the sea of Galilee?

[8:18]

See Map: Sea of Galilee

Why did Jesus speak in this way to the scribe and the person who followed him?

[8:19, 8:20]

Jesus spoke in a certain way to the scribe. This is because Jesus knew what the scribe thought and believed. He said that because he served God, Jesus was always moving from one place to another place. He told this man he must be willing to give up everything to follow him.

The other person, who was a follower of Jesus, wanted to wait to completely follow Jesus. Jesus knew that by him wanting to wait, the follower of Jesus did not really believe in Jesus. If he did, then he would have immediately followed Jesus.

Advice to translators: In this verse (Matthew 8:21), Matthew wrote about a disciple. This was a man who followed Jesus. He was not one of the twelve disciples.

See: Scribe; Scribe

How were the dead to bury the dead?

[8:22]

Jesus told a man to let the dead bury the dead. This was a metaphor. Jesus spoke about the people who rejected him as being dead in some way. That is, they were spiritually dead. This meant that they could not know or understand things about God. Jesus wanted this man to let these dead people bury his father so that he could follow Jesus.

See: Metaphor; Metaphor

Why did Jesus rebuke the disciples?

[8:26]

Some scholars think Jesus rebuked the disciples because they were afraid that the boat would sink and they would die. They did not trust that God would protect Jesus and them.

See: Disciple

Why were the disciples amazed?

[8:27]

The disciples were amazed that Jesus rebuked the wind and the seas. In ancient Israel, people believed the no one could control the seas. No one can control the weather except God. This amazed the disciples because they saw Jesus do something only God could do.

See: Disciple

Where was the country of the Gadarenes?

[8:28]

See Map: Gadarenes

Why did the demon possessed man call Jesus the Son of God?

[8:29]

The demon possessed man called Jesus the Son of God. This is because the demon knew that Jesus is the Son of God.

See: Demon; Son of God; Demon

What was the set time?

[8:29]

The demons talked about a set time. They knew that there was a time when Jesus would judge them. They also knew that it was not time for Jesus to judge all of the demons.

See: Judge (Judgment); Judge (Judgment)

Why did the demons want to go into a herd of pigs?

[8:30, 8:31]

The demons asked Jesus to be sent into a herd of pigs. According to the Law of Moses, pigs were unclean. Matthew did not say why they wanted to go into the pigs. Perhaps the demons wanted to have control of the pigs in the same way as they controlled the two men.

See: Matthew 12:43

See: Clean and Unclean; Law of Moses; Clean and Unclean

Why did the pigs kill themselves?

[8:32]

Matthew wrote that the pigs killed themselves after the demons entered into them. He did not say why they did this.

See: Demon

Why did the people want Jesus to leave Gadarenes?

[8:34]

After the pigs died, the people who cared for the pigs went into the city and told people about what happened. They told them that the two men had been healed. They did not have demons in him anymore.

After they heard what happened to the pigs, the people in Gadarenes wanted Jesus to leave. The demons caused many pigs to die. These pigs were worth a lot of money. They worried that something else would happen and they would lose a lot more money. They did not care that Jesus healed the demon possessed men. They rejected Jesus after they saw that he did these things.

See: Demon; Demon


Matthew 8:1

General Information:

This is the beginning of a new part of the story that contains several accounts of Jesus healing people. This theme continues through Matthew 9:35.

When Jesus had come down from the hill, large crowds followed him

"After Jesus came down from the hill, a large crowd followed him." The crowd may have included both people who had been with him on the mountain and people who had not been with him.

Matthew 8:2

Behold

The word "behold" alerts us to a new person in the story. Your language may have a way of doing this.

a leper

"a man who had leprosy" or "a man who had a skin disease"

bowed before him

This is a sign of humble respect before Jesus.

if you are willing

"if you want to" or "if you desire." The leper knew that Jesus had the power to heal him, but he did not know if Jesus would want to touch him.

you can make me clean

Here "clean" means to be healed and to be able to live in the community again. Alternate translation: "you can heal me" or "please heal me"

Matthew 8:3

Be clean

By saying this, Jesus healed the man.

Immediately he was cleansed

"At that moment he was cleansed"

he was cleansed of his leprosy

The result of Jesus saying "Be clean" was that the man was healed. This can be stated in active form. Alternate translation: "he was well" or "the leprosy left him" or "the leprosy ended"

Matthew 8:4

to him

This refers to the man that Jesus just healed.

say nothing to any man

"do not say anything to anyone" or "do not tell anyone I healed you"

show yourself to the priest

Jewish law required that the person show his healed skin to the priest, who would then allow him or her to return to the community, to be with other people.

offer the gift that Moses commanded, for a testimony to them

The law of Moses required that someone healed of leprosy give a thanksgiving offering to the priest. When the priest accepted the gift, people would know that the man had been healed. Lepers were ostracized, banned from the community, until they had proof of their healing.

to them

This can possibly refer to 1) the priests or 2) all the people or 3) the critics of Jesus. If possible, use a pronoun that could refer to any of these groups.

Matthew 8:5

Connecting Statement:

Here the scene shifts to a different time and place and tells about Jesus healing another person.

When he was coming into Capernaum

"When Jesus was coming into Capernaum"

Matthew 8:6

paralyzed

unable to move because of disease or stroke

Matthew 8:7

Jesus said to him

"Jesus said to the centurion"

I will come and heal him

"I will come to your house and make your servant well"

Matthew 8:8

under my roof

This is an idiom that refers to inside the house. Alternate translation: "into my house"

say the word

Here "word" represents a command. Alternate translation: "give the command"

will be healed

This can be stated in active form. Alternate translation: "will become well"

Matthew 8:9

under authority ... under me

To be "under" someone means to be less important and to obey the commands of someone more important.

Matthew 8:10

Truly I say to you

"I tell you the truth." This phrase adds emphasis to what Jesus says next.

I have not found anyone with such faith in Israel

Jesus's hearers would have thought that the Jews in Israel, who claim to be children of God, would have greater faith than anyone. Jesus is saying they are wrong and that the centurion's faith was greater.

Matthew 8:11

you

Here "you" is plural and refers to "those who were following him" in [Matthew 8:10]

from the east and the west

Using the opposites "east" and "west" is a way of saying "everywhere." Alternate translation: "from everywhere" or "from far away in every direction"

recline at the table

People in that culture would lie down beside the table while eating. This phrase indicates that all those at the table are family and close friends. The joy in the kingdom of God is frequently spoken of as if the people there were feasting. Alternate translation: "live as family and friends"

in the kingdom of heaven

Here "kingdom of heaven" refers to God's rule as king. The phrase "kingdom of heaven" is used only in the book of Matthew. If possible, keep "heaven" in your translation. Alternate translation: "when our God in heaven shows that he is king"

Matthew 8:12

sons of the kingdom will be cast out

This can be stated in active form. Alternate translation: "God will cast the sons of the kingdom out"

the sons of the kingdom

The phrase "the sons of the kingdom" is a metonym, referring to the unbelieving Jews of the kingdom of Judea. There is also irony here because the "sons" will be thrown out while the strangers will be welcomed. Alternate translation: "those who should have allowed God to rule over them"

the outer darkness

Here "outer darkness" is a metonym for the place where God sends those who reject them. This is a place that is completely separated from God forever. Alternate translation: "the dark place away from God"

weeping and grinding of teeth

"Grinding of teeth" here is a symbolic act, representing extreme sadness and suffering. Alternate translation: "weeping and showing their extreme suffering"

Matthew 8:13

so may it be done for you

This can be stated in active form. Alternate translation: "so I will do it for you"

the servant was healed

This can be stated in active form. Alternate translation: "Jesus healed the servant"

at that very hour

"at the exact time Jesus said he would heal the servant"

Matthew 8:14

Connecting Statement:

Here the scene shifts to a different time and place and tells of Jesus healing another person.

Jesus had come

The disciples were probably with Jesus, but the focus of the story is on what Jesus said and did, so introduce the disciples only if needed to avoid wrong meaning.

Peter's mother-in-law

"the mother of Peter's wife"

Matthew 8:15

the fever left her

If your language would understand this personification to mean that the fever could think and act on its own, this can be translated as "she became better" or "Jesus healed her."

got up

"got out of bed"

Matthew 8:16

Connecting Statement:

Here the scene shifts to later that evening and tells of Jesus healing more people and casting out demons.

When evening had come

Because Jews did not work or travel on the Sabbath, "evening" may imply after the Sabbath. They waited until evening to bring people to Jesus. You do not need to mention the Sabbath unless you need to avoid wrong meaning.

many who were possessed by demons

This can be stated in active form. Alternate translation: "many people whom demons possessed" or "many people whom demons controlled"

He drove out the spirits with a word

Here "word" stands for a command. Alternate translation: "He commanded the spirits to leave"

Matthew 8:17

This was to fulfill

"Jesus did this to fulfill"

what was spoken through Isaiah the prophet

This can be stated in active form. Alternate translation: "what Isaiah the prophet had spoken"

He took our illnesses and bore our diseases

Matthew is quoting the prophet Isaiah to show that when Jesus healed people, he fulfilled what Isaiah had said would happen. These two phrases mean basically the same thing and emphasize that Jesus truly did this. Alternate translation: "Truly he took our illnesses"

Matthew 8:18

Connecting Statement:

Here the scene shifts and tells about Jesus's response to some people who wanted to follow him.

Now

This word is used here to mark a change in the main story. Here Matthew starts to tell a new part of the story.

he gave instructions

"he told his disciples"

Matthew 8:19

Then

This means after Jesus "gave instructions" but before he could get into the boat.

wherever

to any place

Matthew 8:20

Foxes have holes, and the birds of the sky have nests

Jesus answers with this proverb. This means even wild animals have somewhere to rest.

Foxes

Foxes are animals like dogs. They eat nesting birds and other small animals. If foxes are unknown in your area, use a general term for dog-like creatures or other furry animals.

holes

Foxes make holes in the ground to live in. Use the appropriate word for the place where the animal you use for "foxes" lives.

the Son of Man

Jesus is speaking about himself.

nowhere to lay his head

This refers to a place to sleep. Alternate translation: "no place of his own to sleep"

Matthew 8:21

allow me first to go and bury my father

It is unclear whether the man's father has died and he will bury him immediately, or if the man wants to stay for a longer amount of time until his father dies so he can bury him then. The main point is that the man wants to do something else first before he follows Jesus.

Matthew 8:22

leave the dead to bury their own dead

Jesus does not mean literally that dead people will bury other dead people. Possible meanings of "the dead": 1) it is a metaphor for those who will soon die, or 2) it is a metaphor for those who do not follow Jesus and are spiritually dead. The main point is that a disciple must not let anything delay him from following Jesus.

Matthew 8:23

Connecting Statement:

Here the scene shifts to the account of Jesus calming a storm as he and his disciples cross the Sea of Galilee.

entered a boat

"got onto a boat"

his disciples followed him

Try to use the same words for "disciple" and "follow" that you used in (Matthew 8:21-22).

Matthew 8:24

Behold

This marks the beginning of another event in the larger story. Your language may have a way of showing this. Alternate translation: "Suddenly" or "Without warning"

there arose a great storm on the sea

This can be stated in active form. Alternate translation: "a powerful storm arose on the sea"

so that the boat was covered with the waves

This can be stated in active form. Alternate translation: "so that the waves covered the boat"

Matthew 8:25

General Information:

Matthew quotes the prophet Isaiah to show that Jesus's healing ministry was a fulfillment of prophecy.

woke him up, saying, "Save us

Possible meanings are 1) they first woke Jesus and then they said, "Save us" or 2) as they were waking Jesus up, they were saying "Save us."

us ... we

If you need to translate these words as inclusive or exclusive, then inclusive is best. The disciples probably meant they wanted Jesus to save the disciples and himself from drowning.

we are perishing

"we are going to die very soon." The word "perishing" is a strong word for "dying."

Matthew 8:26

to them

"to the disciples"

Why are you afraid ... faith?

Jesus was rebuking the disciples with this rhetorical question. Alternate translation: "You should not be afraid ... faith!" or "There is nothing for you to be afraid of ... faith!"

you of little faith

"you who have such little faith." Jesus addresses his disciples this way because their anxiety about the storm shows they have little faith in him to control it. See how you translated this in Matthew 6:30.

Matthew 8:27

What sort of man is this, that even the winds and the sea obey him?

"Even the winds and the sea obey him! What sort of man is this?" This rhetorical question shows that the disciples were surprised. Alternate translation: "This man is unlike any man we have ever seen! Even the wind and the waves obey him!"

even the winds and the sea obey him

For people or animals to obey or disobey is not surprising, but for wind and water to obey is very surprising. This personification describes the natural elements as being able to hear and respond like people.

Matthew 8:28

Connecting Statement:

Here the author returns to the theme of Jesus healing people. This begins an account of Jesus healing two demon-possessed men.

to the other side

"to the other side of the Sea of Galilee"

the Gadarenes

This name refers to theo people who lived in the town of Gadara.

two men who were possessed by demons

This can be stated in active form. Alternate translation: "two men whom demons possessed" or "two men whom demons were controlling"

They ... were very violent, so that no traveler could pass that way

The demons that were controlling these two men were so dangerous that no one could go through that area.

Matthew 8:29

Behold

This marks the beginning of another event in the larger story. Your language may have a way of showing this.

What do we have to do with you, Son of God?

The demons use a question but they are being hostile toward Jesus. Alternate translation: "Do not bother us, Son of God!"

Son of God

This is an important title for Jesus, which describes his relationship to God.

Have you come here to torment us before the set time?

Again, the demons use a question in a hostile way. Alternate translation: "You should not disobey God by punishing us before the specific time God has set when he will punish us!"

Matthew 8:30

Now

This word is used here to mark a pause in the story. Here Matthew tells background information about a herd of pigs that had been there before Jesus arrived.

Matthew 8:31

If you cast us out

It is implied that the demons knew that Jesus was going to cast them out. Alternate translation: "Because you are going to cast us out"

us

This is exclusive, meaning the demons only.

Matthew 8:32

to them

This refers to the demons inside the men.

The demons came out and went into the pigs

"The demons left the men and entered the pigs"

behold

This alerts us to pay attention to the surprising information that follows.

rushed down the steep hill

"ran quickly down the steep slope"

they died in the water

"they fell into the water and drowned"

Matthew 8:33

Connecting Statement:

This concludes the account of Jesus healing two demon-possessed men.

tending the pigs

"taking care of the pigs"

what had happened to the men who had been possessed by demons

This can be stated in active form. Alternate translation: "what Jesus did to help the men whom demons had controlled"

Matthew 8:34

Behold

This marks the beginning of another event in the larger story. It may involve different people than the previous events. Your language may have a way of showing this.

all the city

The word "city" is a metonym for the people of the city. The word "all" is probably an exaggeration to emphasize how very many people came out. Not necessarily every person came out.

their region

"their area"

3 Behold, some of the scribes said among themselves, "This man is blaspheming." 4 Jesus knew their thoughts and said, "Why are you thinking evil in your hearts? 5 For which is easier, to say, 'Your sins are forgiven,' or to say, 'Get up and walk'? 6 But that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins, ... " he said to the paralytic, "Get up, pick up your mat, and go to your house." 7 Then the man got up and went away to his house. 8 When the crowds saw this, they were afraid and glorified God, who had given such authority to people. 9 As Jesus passed by from there, he saw a man named Matthew sitting at the tax collector's tent. He said to him, "Follow me." He got up and followed him.

10 As Jesus sat down to eat in the house, behold, many tax collectors and sinners came and dined with Jesus and his disciples. 11 When the Pharisees saw it, they said to his disciples, "Why does your teacher eat with tax collectors and sinners?"

12 When Jesus heard this, he said, "People who are strong in body do not need a physician, only those who are sick. 13 You should go and learn what this means: 'I desire mercy and not sacrifice.' For I came not to call the righteous to repent, but sinners."

14 Then the disciples of John came to him and said, "Why do we and the Pharisees often fast, but your disciples do not fast?"

15 Jesus said to them, "Can the sons of the wedding hall mourn while the bridegroom is still with them? But the days will come when the bridegroom will be taken away from them, and then they will fast. 16 No man puts a piece of new cloth on an old garment, for the patch will tear away from the garment, and a worse tear will be made. 17 Neither do people put new wine into old wineskins. If they do, the skins will burst, the wine will be spilled, and the wineskins will be destroyed. Instead, they put new wine into fresh wineskins, and both will be preserved."

18 While Jesus was saying these things to them, behold, an official came and bowed down to him. He said, "My daughter has just now died, but come and lay your hand on her, and she will live." 19 Then Jesus got up and followed him, and so did his disciples.

20 Behold, a woman who suffered from a discharge of blood for twelve years came up behind Jesus and touched the edge of his garment. 21 For she had said to herself, "If only I touch his clothes, I will be made well."

22 But Jesus turned and saw her, and said, "Daughter, take courage; your faith has made you well." And the woman was healed from that hour. 23 When Jesus came into the official's house, he saw the flute players and the crowd making a commotion. 24 He said, "Go away, for the girl is not dead, but she is asleep." But they laughed at him in mockery. 25 When the crowd had been put outside, he entered the room and took her by the hand, and the girl got up. 26 The news about this spread into all that region.

27 As Jesus passed by from there, two blind men followed him. They kept shouting and saying, "Have mercy on us, Son of David!"

28 When Jesus had come into the house, the blind men came to him. Jesus said to them, "Do you believe that I can do this?"

They said to him, "Yes, Lord."

29 Then Jesus touched their eyes and said, "Let it be done to you according to your faith," 30 and their eyes were opened. Then Jesus strictly commanded them and said, "See that no one knows about this." 31 But the two men went out and spread the news about this throughout that region.

32 As those two men were going away, behold, a mute man possessed by a demon was brought to Jesus. 33 When the demon had been driven out, the mute man spoke. The crowds were astonished and said, "This has never been seen before in Israel!"

34 But the Pharisees were saying, "By the ruler of the demons, he drives out demons."

35 Jesus went about all the cities and the villages. He continued teaching in their synagogues, preaching the gospel of the kingdom and healing all kinds of disease and all kinds of sickness. 36 When he saw the crowds, he had compassion for them, because they were troubled and discouraged. They were like sheep without a shepherd. 37 He said to his disciples, "The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few. 38 Therefore urgently pray to the Lord of the harvest, so that he may send out laborers into his harvest."


Matthew 9 General Notes

Special concepts in this chapter

"Sinners"

When the people of Jesus's time spoke of "sinners," they were talking about people who did not obey the law of Moses and instead committed sins like stealing or sexual sins. When Jesus said that he came to call "sinners," he meant that only people who believe that they are sinners can be his followers. This is true even if they are not what most people think of as "sinners." (See: sin)

Other possible translation difficulties in this chapter

Passive voice

Many sentences in this chapter tell that a person had something happen to him without saying who caused that something to happen. You may have to translate the sentence so that it tells the reader who performed the action.

Rhetorical questions

Speakers in this chapter asked questions to which they already knew the answer. They asked the questions to show that they were not happy with the hearers or to teach them or to get them to think. Your language may have another way of doing this.

Proverbs

Proverbs are very short sentences that use words that are easy to remember. They teach about something that is generally true. People who understand proverbs usually have to know much about the language and culture of the speaker. When you translate the proverbs in this chapter, you may have to use many more words than the speakers used so that your readers can understand things that the original audiences understood.


Matthew 9

9:1-9

Where was Jesus’ own city?

[9:1]

Jesus went to his own city, Capernaum (see: Matthew 4:13).

See Map: Capernaum

Why did these men bring the paralyzed man to Jesus?

[9:2]

Men brought a paralyzed man to Jesus. These men believed in Jesus and knew that he could heal this man who could not walk. Because he knew this man believed in him, Jesus spoke that he forgave this man’s sins.

See: Mark 2:3-4; Luke 5:17-26

See: Sin

Why did the scribes think Jesus blasphemed?

[9:3]

The scribes thought that Jesus blasphemed because he forgave this man’s sins. They knew that only God could forgive sins. Therefore, they thought Jesus tried to do something that only God could do. However, they did not know that Jesus is God.

See: Jesus is God; Blaspheme (Blasphemy); Sin; Jesus is God

How did Jesus know what the scribes were thinking?

[9:4]

Jesus knew what the scribes were thinking because he is God. Therefore, he knew they were thinking evil things.

See: Jesus is God; Jesus is God

What did Jesus mean by saying, “which is easier to say”?

[9:5]

Jesus asked the scribes whether it was easier to tell this man that his sins were forgiven or to tell him to get up and walk. It was easier for someone to say your sins are forgiven because no one knew whether this man’s sins were forgiven except God. However, if someone told this paralyzed man to walk and he could not, then everyone knew he could not heal the paralyzed man.

Jesus said these things so that the people could know that he could do both of these things.

See: Sin; Sin

Why were the people afraid?

[9:8]

When the people saw these things, they were “afraid”(φοβέω/g5399). They were not scared of Jesus. Instead, they were amazed that Jesus could do these things. Because of this, they glorified God. They were amazed that God gave Jesus permission to do these things.

See: Glory (Glorify)

9:10-17

What was a tax collector?

[9:10]

Matthew was a tax collector. People in Israel hated the tax collectors. Tax collectors were Jews who worked for the Roman government. They paid the Romans so they could collect taxes from other people. If they collected more taxes than they paid the Roman government, then they were allowed to keep it. Because of this, many tax collectors became rich. The Jews thought a Jewish tax collector betrayed the Jewish people because they took money from the Jews and gave it to the Romans. They thought tax collectors were evil because they took money from people who honored God and gave it to people who rejected God.

See: Tax (Tax Collector, Toll)

Who were sinners?

[9:10]

Matthew wrote about sinners. All people sinned. However, these were people who sinned in a way that other people knew they sinned. People judged them as evil. The Jews would not be friends with these people. The Pharisees would not eat with them because they thought they were unclean.

See: Judge (Judgment); Clean and Unclean; Pharisees; Judge (Judgment)

Why were people needing a physician?

[9:12]

Jesus talked about people needing a physician. This was a metaphor. He wanted people to know that people who sinned needed Jesus to forgive them. Because of this, all people needed Jesus to forgive them. The Pharisees also needed Jesus to forgive their sins.

See: Pharisees; Sin; Pharisees

Why does God want mercy and not sacrifice?

[9:13]

God said that he wanted mercy and not sacrifice (see: Hosea 6:6). Sacrifices were part of the Law of Moses. God wanted sacrifice, but he did not want people to make sacrifices to him in the wrong way. That is, if people did not love one another or show mercy to one another, their sacrifices would be given in the wrong way.

See: Law of Moses; Sacrifice; Law of Moses

Who did Jesus come to call?

[9:13]

Jesus said that he came to earth to call certain people to God. That is, he wanted to make it so that sinners could be at peace with God. He did not do this for righteous people, that is, people who thought they were righteous and did not need to be forgiven. However, there is no one who is righteous (see: Romans 3:10).

See: Repent (Repentance); Righteous (Righteousness); Pharisees; Repent (Repentance)

Why did the Pharisees fast, but the disciples did not fast?

[9:14]

Certain people who followed Jesus asked him why the Pharisees fasted but his disciples did not fast. In ancient Israel, people fasted when they were sad. However, the disciples were not sad because Jesus was with them. It was not a time for them to fast. Rather, it was a time for them to celebrate. Jesus told them that the disciples would fast after he died.

See: Disciple; Pharisees; Disciple

Why did Jesus talk about garments and wineskins?

[9:16, 9:17]

Jesus talked about putting a cloth patch on a garment. If someone put a new piece of cloth on an old piece of clothing, the new piece of cloth would become smaller and cause the clothing to rip. Wineskins were bags of leather that held wine. When someone put wine into an old wineskin, it would burst open. This was a metaphor. He wanted to say that he was going to do something different than the Pharisees. Scholars think that Jesus taught people to do different things than were taught in the Law of Moses.

See: Law of Moses; Pharisees; Law of Moses

9:18-31

Why did this man bow before Jesus?

[9:18]

This man bowed before Jesus. This was a way to honor Jesus. He believed that Jesus was able to bring his daughter back to life just by touching her.

Why did this woman touch Jesus?

[9:20]

A woman was constantly bleeding for 12 years. She thought that if she touched Jesus, it would heal her. However, this could not heal her. Jesus knew that she believed in him and because of this, he healed her. She was healed because she trusted in Jesus.

Why was there many people in this man’s house?

[9:23]

There were many people in this man’s house. They were playing music and many people were very sad. In ancient Israel, this happened when someone died.

Why did these men call Jesus the son of David?

[9:27]

These blind men called Jesus the son of David. They believed Jesus is the Messiah. The Messiah needed to be a descendant of David who would fulfill the covenant God made to David (see: 2 Sam. 7).

See: Covenant with David; Fulfill (Fulfillment); Covenant; Son of David; Covenant with David

Why did Jesus not want the blind men to tell other people Jesus healed them?

[9:30]

See: Messianic Secret

9:32-38

### What was a mute man?\

[9:32]

A mute man was someone who could not talk. Perhaps this man could not talk because he was possessed by demons.

See: Demon Possession (Casting Out Demons)

How did the Pharisees think that Jesus drove out demons?

[9:34]

The Pharisees said that Satan gave Jesus permission to remove demons from people.

See: Satan (The Devil); Demon Possession (Casting Out Demons); Demon; Satan (The Devil)

What was a synagogue?

[9:35]

See: Synagogue

What was preaching the gospel?

[9:35]

See Gospel; Gospel

What did it mean that people were like sheep without a shepherd?

[9:36]

Jesus said the people were like sheep without a shepherd. This was a metaphor. The people did not have anyone to lead them and to teach them about how to live in a way that honors God. The Pharisees could not do this.

See: Pharisees; Metaphor; Pharisees

How was the harvest plentiful, but the laborers few?

[9:37]

Jesus said that the harvest was plentiful but the laborers few. This was a metaphor. There were many people who wanted to learn about Jesus, but there were few people who could go and tell them about Jesus. Therefore, he told the people to pray and ask God to get people to do this.

See: Harvest

Why are you thinking evil in your hearts?

Jesus used this question to rebuke the scribes. Here "hearts" refers to their minds or their thoughts. Alternate translation: "Do not think evil thoughts."

evil

This is moral evil or wickedness, not simply error in fact.

Matthew 9:5

For which is easier, to say, 'Your sins are forgiven,' or to say, 'Get up and walk'?

Jesus uses this question to make the scribes think about what might prove whether or not he could really forgive sins. Alternate translation: "I just said 'Your sins are forgiven.' You may think that it is harder to say 'Get up and walk,' because the proof of whether or not I can heal the man will be shown by whether or not he gets up and walks." or "You may think that it is easier to say 'Your sins are forgiven' than it is to say 'Get up and walk.'"

which is easier, to say, 'Your sins are forgiven,' or to say, 'Get up and walk'?

As Jesus passed by from there

This phrase marks the beginning of a new part of the story. If your language has a way for doing this, you could consider using it here.

passed by

"was leaving" or "was going"

Church tradition says that this Matthew is the author of this Gospel, but the text gives no reason to change the pronouns from "him" and "He" to "me" and "I."

He said to him

"Jesus said to Matthew"

He got up and followed him

"Matthew got up and followed Jesus." This means Matthew became Jesus's disciple.

Matthew 9:10

the house

This is probably Matthew's house, but it could also be Jesus's house. Specify only if needed to avoid confusion.

behold

This marks the beginning of another event in the larger story. It may involve different people than the previous events. Your language may have a way of doing this.

sinners

people who did not obey the law of Moses but committed what others thought were very bad sins

Matthew 9:11

When the Pharisees saw it

"When the Pharisees saw that Jesus was eating with the tax collectors and sinful people"

Why does your teacher eat with tax collectors and sinners?

The Pharisees use this question to criticize what Jesus is doing. Alternate translation: "Your teacher should not eat with tax collectors and sinner."

Matthew 9:12

When Jesus heard this

Here "this" refers to the question the Pharisees asked about Jesus eating with tax collectors and sinners.

People who are strong in body do not need a physician, only those who are sick

Jesus answers with a proverb. He means that he eats with these kinds of people because he has come to help sinners.

People who are strong in body

The phrase "need a physician" is understood. Alternate translation: "people who are sick need a physician"

Matthew 9:13

You should go and learn what this means

Jesus is about to quote the scriptures. Alternate translation: "You should learn the meaning of what God said in the scriptures"

You should go

Here "you" is plural and refers to the Pharisees.

I desire mercy and not sacrifice

Jesus is quoting what the prophet Hosea wrote in the scriptures. Here, "I" refers to God.

For I came

Here "I" refers to Jesus.

the righteous

Jesus is using irony. He does not think there are any people who are righteous and do not need to repent. Alternate translation: "those who think they are righteous"

Matthew 9:14

Connecting Statement:

The disciples of John the Baptist question the fact that Jesus's disciples do not fast.

do not fast

"continue to eat regularly"

Matthew 9:15

Can the sons of the wedding hall mourn while the bridegroom is still with them?

Jesus uses a question to answer John's disciples. They all knew that people do not mourn and fast at a wedding celebration. Jesus uses this proverb to show that his disciples do not mourn because he is still there with them. Alternate translation: "The sons of the wedding hall never mourn while the bridegroom is still with them."

sons of the wedding hall

This is an idiom that refers to the men who serve a bridegroom during a wedding. Alternate translation: "bridegroom's attendants"

the days will come when

This is a way of referring to some time in the future. Alternate translation: "the time will come when" or "someday"

the bridegroom will be taken away from them

This can be stated in active form. Alternate translation: "the bridegroom will not be able to be with them any longer" or "someone will take the bridegroom away from them"

will be taken away

Jesus is probably referring to his own death, but this should not be made explicit here in the translation. To maintain the imagery of a wedding, it is best to just state that the bridegroom will not be there any longer.

Matthew 9:16

Connecting Statement:

Jesus continues to answer the question that the disciples of John had asked. He did this by giving two examples of old things and new things that people do not put together.

No man puts a piece of new cloth on an old garment

"No one sews a piece of new cloth on an old garment" or "People do not sew a piece of new cloth as a patch an old garment"

an old garment ... the garment

"old clothing ... the clothing"

the patch will tear away from the garment

If someone were to wash the garment, the patch of new cloth would shrink, but the old garment would not shrink. This would tear the patch off the garment and leave a bigger hole.

the patch

"the piece of new cloth." This is the piece of cloth used to cover a hole in the old garment.

a worse tear will be made

This can be stated in active form. Alternate translation: "this will make the tear worse"

Matthew 9:17

Connecting Statement:

Jesus continues to answer the question that disciples of John had asked.

Neither do people put new wine into old wineskins

Jesus uses another proverb to answer John's disciples. This means the same as the proverb in Matthew 9:16.

Neither do people put

"Neither does anyone pour" or "People never put"

new wine

This refers to wine that has not fermented yet. If grapes are unknown in your area, use the general term for fruit. Alternate translation: "grape juice"

old wineskins

This refers to wineskins that have stretched and dried out because they were already used for fermenting wine.

wineskins

"wine bags" or "skin bags." These were bags made out of animal skins.

the wine will be spilled, and the wineskins will be destroyed

This can be stated in active form. Alternate translation: "and this will ruin the wineskins and spill the wine"

the skins will burst

When the new wine ferments and expands, the skins tear open because they can no longer stretch out.

fresh wineskins

"new wineskins" or "new wine bags." This refers to wineskins that no one has used.

both will be preserved

This can be stated in active form. Alternate translation: "this will keep safe both the wineskins and the wine"

Matthew 9:18

Connecting Statement:

This begins an account of Jesus bringing to life the daughter of a Jewish official after she had died.

these things

This refers to the answer Jesus gave John's disciples about fasting.

behold

The word "behold" alerts us to a new person in the story. Your language may have a way of doing this.

bowed down to him

This is a way someone would show respect in Jewish culture.

come and lay your hand on her, and she will live

This shows that the Jewish official believed Jesus had the power to bring his daughter back to life.

Matthew 9:19

"Jesus's disciples"

Matthew 9:20

Connecting Statement:

This describes how Jesus healed another woman while he was on the way to the Jewish official's house.

Behold

The word "Behold" alerts us to a new person in the story. Your language may have a way of doing this.

who suffered from a discharge of blood

"who had been bleeding" or "who frequently had a flow of blood." She was probably bleeding from her womb even when it was not the normal time for it. Some cultures may have a polite way of referring to this condition.

twelve years

"12 years"

his garment

"his robe" or "what he was wearing"

Matthew 9:21

For she had said to herself, "If only I touch his clothes, I will be made well."

She said this to herself before she touched Jesus's garment. This tells why she touched Jesus's garment.

If only I touch his clothes

According to Jewish law, because she was bleeding she was not supposed to touch anyone. She touches his clothes so that Jesus's power would heal her and yet

Matthew 9:22

But Jesus

"The woman was hoping she could touch him secretly, but Jesus"

Daughter

The woman was not Jesus's real daughter. Jesus was speaking to her politely. If this is confusing, it can also be translated "Young woman" or even omitted.

your faith has made you well

"because you believed in me, I will heal you"

the woman was healed from that hour

This can be stated in active form. Alternate translation: "Jesus healed her at that moment"

Matthew 9:23

Connecting Statement:

flute players

"people who play flutes"

and the crowd making a commotion

The phrase "making a commotion" applies only to "the crowd" and does not include the flute players. Alternation translation: "and the crowd making a lot of noise" or "and the noisy crowd"

Matthew 9:24

Go away

Jesus was speaking to many people, so use the plural command form if your language has one.

the girl is not dead, but she is asleep

Jesus is using a play on words. It was common in Jesus's day to refer to a dead person as one who "sleeps." But here the dead girl will get up, as though she had only been sleeping.

Matthew 9:25

When the crowd had been put outside

This can be stated in active form. Alternate translation: "After Jesus had sent the crowd outside" or "After the family had sent the people outside"

got up

"got out of bed." This is the same meaning as in Matthew 8:15.

Matthew 9:26

General Information:

This is a summary statement that describes the result of Jesus raising this girl from the dead.

Connecting Statement:

This completes the account of Jesus bringing the daughter of the Jewish official back to life.

The news about this spread into all that region

"The people of that whole region heard about it" or "The people who saw that the girl was alive started telling everyone in the whole area about it"

Matthew 9:27

Connecting Statement:

This begins the account of Jesus healing two blind men.

As Jesus passed by from there

As Jesus was leaving the region

passed by

"was leaving" or "was going"

followed him

This means they were walking behind Jesus, not necessarily that they had become his disciples.

Have mercy on us

It is implied that they wanted Jesus to heal them.

Son of David

Jesus was not David's literal son, so this may be translated as "Descendant of David." However, "Son of David" is also a title for the Messiah, and the men were probably calling Jesus by this title.

Matthew 9:28

When Jesus had come into the house

This could be either Jesus's own house or the house in Matthew 9:10.

Yes, Lord

The full content of their answer is not stated, but it is understood. Alternate translation: "Yes, Lord, we believe you can heal us"

Matthew 9:29

touched their eyes and said

It is not clear whether he touched both men's eyes at the same time or used only his right hand to touch one then the other. As the left hand was customarily used for unclean purposes, it is most likely that he used only his right hand. It is also not clear whether he spoke as he was touching them or touched them first and then spoke to them.

Let it be done to you according to your faith

This can be stated in active form. Alternate translation: "I will do as you have believed" or "Because you believe, I will heal you"

Matthew 9:30

their eyes were opened

This means they were able to see. This can be stated in active form. Alternate translation: "God healed their eyes" or "the two blind men were able to see"

See that no one knows about this

Here "See" means "be sure." Alternate translation: "Be sure no one finds out about this" or "Do not tell anyone that I healed you"

Matthew 9:31

But the two men

"The two men did not do what Jesus told them to do. They"

spread the news

"told many people what had happened to them"

Matthew 9:32

Connecting Statement:

This is the account of Jesus healing a demon-possessed man who could not speak, and how people responded.

behold

The word "behold" alerts us to a new person in the story. Your language may have a way of doing this.

a mute man ... was brought to Jesus

This can be stated in active form. Alternate translation: "someone brought a mute man ... to Jesus"

mute

not able to talk

possessed by a demon

This can be stated in active form. Alternate translation: "whom a demon had possessed" or "whom a demon was controlling"

Matthew 9:33

When the demon had been driven out

This can be stated in active form. Alternate translation: "After Jesus had forced the demon out" or "After Jesus had commanded the demon to leave"

the mute man spoke

"the mute man began to speak" or "the man who had been mute spoke" or "the man, who was no longer mute, spoke"

The crowds were astonished

"The people were amazed"

This has never been seen

This can be stated in active form. Alternate translation: "This has never happened before" or "No one has ever done anything like this before"

Matthew 9:34

he drives out demons

"he forces demons to leave"

he drives

The pronoun "he" refers to Jesus.

Matthew 9:35

Connecting Statement:

This is the end of the part of the story that began in [Matthew 8:1]

all the cities

The word "all" is an exaggeration to emphasize how very many cities Jesus went to. He did not necessarily go to every one of them. Alternate translation: "many of the cities"

cities ... villages

"large villages ... small villages" or "large towns ... small towns"

the gospel of the kingdom

Here "kingdom" refers to God's rule as king. See how you translated this in [Matthew 4:23]

all kinds of disease and all kinds of sickness

"every disease and every sickness." The words "disease" and "sickness" are closely related but should be translated as two different words if possible. "Disease" is what causes a person to be sick. "Sickness" is the physical weakness or affliction that results from having a disease.

Matthew 9:36

General Information:

This begins a new part of the story where Jesus teaches his disciples and sends them to preach and heal as he has done.

They were like sheep without a shepherd

This simile means they did not have a leader to take care of them. Alternate translation: "The people did not have a leader"

Matthew 9:37

General Information:

Jesus uses a proverb about harvesting to tell his disciples how they should respond to the needs of the crowds mentioned in the previous section.

The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few

Jesus uses a proverb to respond to what he is seeing. Jesus means there are a lot of people who are ready to believe God but only few people to teach them God's truth.

The harvest is plentiful

"There is plenty of ripe food for someone to collect"

laborers

"workers"

Matthew 9:38

pray to the Lord of the harvest

"pray to God, because he is in charge of the harvest"

Chapter 10

1 Jesus called his twelve disciples together and gave them authority over unclean spirits, to drive them out, and to heal all kinds of disease and all kinds of sickness. 2 Now the names of the twelve apostles were these. The first, Simon (whom he also called Peter), and Andrew his brother; James son of Zebedee, and John his brother; 3 Philip, and Bartholomew; Thomas, and Matthew the tax collector; James son of Alphaeus, and Thaddaeus; 4 Simon the Zealot, and Judas Iscariot, who would betray him.

5 These twelve Jesus sent out. He instructed them and said, "Do not go to any place where Gentiles live, and do not enter any town of the Samaritans. 6 Go instead to the lost sheep of the house of Israel; 7 and as you go, preach and say, 'The kingdom of heaven is near.' 8 Heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse the lepers, and cast out demons. Freely you have received, freely give. 9 Do not carry any gold, silver, or copper in your belts. 10 Do not take a traveling bag for your journey, or an extra tunic, or sandals, or a staff, for a laborer deserves his food. 11 Whatever city or village you enter, find who is worthy in it, and stay there until you leave. 12 As you enter into the house, greet it. 13 If the house is worthy, let your peace come upon it. But if it is not worthy, let your peace return to you. 14 As for those who do not receive you or listen to your words, when you depart from that house or city, shake off the dust from your feet. 15 Truly I say to you, it will be more bearable for the land of Sodom and Gomorrah in the day of judgment than for that city.

16 "See, I send you out as sheep in the midst of wolves, so be as wise as serpents and innocent as doves. 17 Watch out for people! They will deliver you up to councils, and they will whip you in their synagogues. 18 Then you will be brought before governors and kings for my sake, as a testimony to them and to the Gentiles. 19 When they deliver you up, do not be anxious about how or what you will speak, for what to say will be given to you at that time. 20 For it is not you who will speak, but the Spirit of your Father who will speak in you. 21 Brother will deliver up brother to death, and a father his child. Children will rise up against their parents and cause them to be put to death. 22 You will be hated by everyone because of my name. But whoever endures to the end, that person will be saved. 23 When they persecute you in this city, flee to the next, for truly I say to you, you will not have gone through the cities of Israel before the Son of Man has come.

24 "A disciple is not greater than his teacher, nor a servant above his master. 25 It is enough for the disciple that he should be like his teacher, and the servant like his master. If they have called the master of the house Beelzebul, how much worse would be the names they call the members of his household! 26 Therefore do not fear them, for there is nothing concealed that will not be revealed, and nothing hidden that will not be known. 27 What I tell you in the darkness, say in the daylight, and what you hear softly in your ear, proclaim upon the housetops. 28 Do not be afraid of those who kill the body but are unable to kill the soul. Instead, fear him who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell. 29 Are not two sparrows sold for a small coin? Yet not one of them falls to the ground without your Father's knowledge. 30 But even the hairs of your head are all numbered. 31 Do not fear. You are more valuable than many sparrows. 32 Therefore everyone who confesses me before men, I will also confess before my Father who is in heaven. 33 But he who denies me before men, I will also deny before my Father who is in heaven.

34 "Do not think that I came to bring peace upon the earth. I did not come to bring peace, but a sword. 35 For I came to set

 

     a man against his father,

         and a daughter against her mother,

     and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law.

 

36 A man's enemies will be those of his own household. 37 He who loves father or mother more than me is not worthy of me; he who loves son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me. 38 He who does not pick up his cross and follow after me is not worthy of me. 39 He who finds his life will lose it. But he who loses his life for my sake will find it.

40 "He who welcomes you welcomes me, and he who welcomes me also welcomes him who sent me. 41 He who welcomes a prophet in the name of a prophet will receive a prophet's reward, and he who welcomes a righteous man in the name of a righteous man will receive a righteous man's reward. 42 Whoever gives to one of these little ones even a cup of cold water to drink in the name of a disciple, truly I say to you, he will in no way lose his reward."


Matthew 10 General Notes

Special concepts in this chapter

The sending of the twelve disciples

Many verses in this chapter describe how Jesus sent the twelve disciples out. He sent them to tell his message about the kingdom of heaven. They were to tell his message only in Israel and not to share it with the Gentiles.

Other possible translation difficulties in this chapter

The twelve disciples

The following are the lists of the twelve disciples:

In Matthew:

Simon (Peter), Andrew, James son of Zebedee, John son of Zebedee, Philip, Bartholomew, Thomas, Matthew, James son of Alphaeus, Thaddaeus, Simon the Zealot and Judas Iscariot.

In Mark:

Simon (Peter), Andrew, James the son of Zebedee and John the son of Zebedee (to whom he gave the name Boanerges, that is, sons of thunder), Philip, Bartholomew, Matthew, Thomas, James the son of Alphaeus, Thaddaeus, Simon the Zealot, and Judas Iscariot.

In Luke:

Simon (Peter), Andrew, James, John, Philip, Bartholomew, Matthew, Thomas, James the son of Alphaeus, Simon (who was called the Zealot), Judas the son of James, and Judas Iscariot.

Thaddaeus is probably the same person as Jude, the son of James.

"The kingdom of heaven has come near"

No one knows for sure whether the "kingdom of heaven" was present or still coming when Jesus spoke these words. English translations often use the phrase "at hand," but these words can be difficult to translate. Other versions use the phrases "is coming near" and "has come near."

How will Christians be saved?

[10:22]

Why did Jesus talk about servants and masters?

[10:24, 10:25]

Jesus talked about servants and masters. Jesus wanted the disciples to do the same types of things that he did. He gave them permission to do these things. He wanted them to know that people would insult them for doing these things. They also insulted Jesus. Jesus wanted them to know that people insulted him the same way people will insult the disciples.

Certain people said that Jesus served Satan. These people feared the disciples less than they feared Jesus. Therefore, they may insult the disciples even more than they insulted Jesus.

How does someone confess or deny Jesus?

[10:32, 10:33]

Jesus said that he would tell God the Father about people who confess, that is to acknowledge that Jesus is the messiah to other people. However, if they rejected Jesus in some way, then Jesus will reject them in some way. Some scholars think Jesus taught that people who deny Jesus were not truly Christians or they stopped being Christians. Other scholars think Jesus taught people that they would lose rewards if they denied Jesus in some way.

See: Messiah (Christ); Reward; God the Father; Messiah (Christ)

10:34-42

Why did Jesus come to bring the sword to the earth?

[10:34]

Jesus taught people to love God and to love other people. He wanted people to forgive one another. However, he also said that he came to the earth to bring a sword and not to bring peace. This was a metaphor. A sword was used to divide. Jesus divided people. Jesus did not make it so that everyone was at peace with God. Only those who believe in Jesus are at peace with God. This is how Jesus divided people. Those who believe in him have peace. Those who reject Jesus will be punished. One must either believe in Jesus or reject him. A person cannot do both of these things.

See: Punish (Punishment)

Why will people be enemies with other people in their house?

[10:36]

Jesus divided people as Christians and non-Christians. Christians believe in Jesus. Non-christians reject Jesus. It did not matter what other people in someone’s house believed about Jesus. Every person must believe in Jesus for themselves to have peace with God. Those who rejected Jesus remained enemies of God and enemies of Christians.

[10:37]

Jesus talked about mothers and fathers. He did this because he wanted people to know that he wanted people to love him more than they loved their own mother and father. How does someone pick up their cross?

See: Metaphor; Metaphor

How will someone lose their life and find it and someone who finds his life lose it?

[10:39]

Jesus spoke about someone finding their life but losing it. This was a metaphor. He wanted to say that someone who did not want to serve Jesus would not live together with God in heaven forever. However, if someone was killed because they believed in Jesus, even though they died, they would live together with God in heaven forever.

See: Heaven; Heaven

How did someone welcome a prophet in the prophet’s name and receive a prophet’s reward?

[10:41]

Jesus said that someone who welcomed a prophet will receive a prophet’s reward. He wanted them to know that whoever welcomed prophets to serve Jesus will be rewarded in some way. The disciples were prophets because they spoke the words God wanted them to say to other people.

See: Disciple; Reward; Disciple

How did someone welcome a righteous man in the name of a righteous man and receive a righteous man’s reward?

Brother will deliver up brother to death

"One brother will deliver up his brother to death" or "Brothers will deliver up their brothers to death." Jesus speaks of something that will happen many times.

Matthew 10:24

Connecting Statement:

Jesus continues to instruct his disciples about the persecution they will endure when they go out to preach.

A disciple is not greater than his teacher, nor a servant above his master

Jesus is using a proverb to teach his disciples a general truth. Jesus is emphasizing that the disciples should not expect people to treat them any better than the people treat Jesus.

A disciple is not greater than his teacher

"A disciple is always less important than his teacher" or "A teacher is always more important than his disciple"

nor a servant above his master

"and a servant is always less important than his master" or "and a master is always more important than his servant"

Matthew 10:25

It is enough for the disciple that he should be like his teacher

"The disciple should be satisfied to become like his teacher"

be like his teacher

If necessary, you can make explicit how the disciple becomes like the teacher. Alternate translation: "know as much as his teacher knows"

how much worse would be the names they call the members of his household

"the names that they call the members of his household will certainly be much worse" or "they will certainly call the members of his household much worse names"

If they have called

Jesus continues to instruct his disciples about the persecution they will endure when they go out to preach.

do not fear them

Here "them" refers to the people who mistreat followers of Jesus.

there is nothing concealed that will not be revealed, and nothing hidden that will not be known

Both of these statements mean the same thing. Being concealed or hidden represents being kept secret, and being revealed represents being made known. Jesus is emphasizing that God will make all things known. This can be stated in active form. Alternate translation: "God will reveal the things that people hide"

Matthew 10:27

What I tell you in the darkness, say in the daylight, and what you hear softly in your ear, proclaim upon the housetops

Both of these statements mean the same thing. Jesus is emphasizing that the disciples should tell everyone what he tells the disciples in private. Alternate translation: "Tell people in the daylight what I tell you in the darkness, and proclaim upon the housetops what you hear softly in your ear"

What I tell you in the darkness, say in the daylight

Here "darkness" is a metonym for "night" which is a metonym for "private." Here "daylight" is a metonym for "public." Alternate translation: "What I tell you privately at night, say in public in the daylight"

what you hear softly in your ear

This is a way of referring to whispering. Alternate translation: "what I whisper to you"

proclaim upon the housetops

Housetops where Jesus lived were flat, and people far away could hear anyone speaking with a loud voice from one. Here "housetops" refers to any place where all people can hear. Alternate translation: "speak loudly in a public place for all to hear"

Matthew 10:28

Do not be afraid of those who kill the body but are unable to kill the soul

This is not distinguishing between people who cannot kill the soul and people who can kill the soul. No person can kill the soul. Alternate translation: "Do not be afraid of people. They can kill the body, but they cannot kill the soul"

sparrows

These are very small, seed-eating birds. Alternate translation: "small birds"

a small coin

This is often translated as the least valuable coin available in your country. It refers to a copper coin worth about one-sixteenth of a day's wage for a laborer. Alternate translation: "very little money"

Chapter 11

1 It came about that when Jesus had finished instructing his twelve disciples, he departed from there to teach and preach in their cities. 2 Now when John heard in the prison about the deeds of the Christ, he sent a message by his disciples 3 and said to him, "Are you the one who is coming, or should we look for another?"

4 Jesus answered and said to them, "Go and report to John what you see and hear. 5 The blind are receiving sight, the lame are walking, lepers are being cleansed, the deaf are hearing again, the dead are being raised back to life, and the gospel is being preached to the poor. 6 Blessed is anyone who does not stumble because of me."

7 As these men went on their way, Jesus began to say to the crowds about John, "What did you go out in the desert to see—a reed being shaken by the wind? 8 But what did you go out to see—a man dressed in soft clothing? Really, those who wear soft clothing live in kings' houses. 9 But what did you go out to see—a prophet? Yes, I say to you, and much more than a prophet. 10 This is he of whom it was written,

 

     'See, I am sending my messenger before your face,

         who will prepare your way before you.'

11 Truly I say to you that among those born of women, there has not arisen anyone greater than John the Baptist. Yet the least important person in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he is. 12 From the days of John the Baptist until now, the kingdom of heaven suffers violence, and men of violence take it by force. 13 For all the prophets and the law have been prophesying until John; 14 and if you are willing to accept it, he is Elijah who was to come. 15 He who has ears to hear, let him hear. 16 To what should I compare this generation? It is like children sitting in the marketplaces calling out to the others, 17 saying:

 

     'We played a flute for you,

         and you did not dance.

     We mourned,

         and you did not weep.'

 

18 For John came not eating bread or drinking wine, and they say, 'He has a demon.' 19 The Son of Man came eating and drinking and they say, 'Look, he is a gluttonous man and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners!' But wisdom is justified by her deeds."

20 Then Jesus began to denounce the cities in which most of his miracles were done, because they had not repented. 21 "Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! If the miracles had been done in Tyre and Sidon which were done in you, they would have repented long ago in sackcloth and ashes. 22 But, I tell you it will be more tolerable for Tyre and Sidon at the day of judgment than for you. 23 You, Capernaum, do you think you will be exalted to heaven? No, you will be brought down to Hades. For if in Sodom there had been done the miracles that were done in you, it would still have remained until today. 24 But I say to you that it will be easier for the land of Sodom in the day of judgment than for you."

25 At that time Jesus said, "I praise you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because you concealed these things from the wise and understanding, and revealed them to little children. 26 Yes, Father, for this was pleasing in your sight. 27 All things have been entrusted to me from my Father; and no one knows the Son except the Father, and no one knows the Father except the Son and anyone to whom the Son chooses to reveal him. 28 Come to me, all you who labor and are heavy burdened, and I will give you rest. 29 Take my yoke on you and learn from me, for I am meek and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30 For my yoke is easy and my burden is light."


Matthew 11 General Notes

Structure and formatting

Some translations set quotations from the Old Testament farther to the right on the page than the rest of the text. The ULB does this with the quoted material in 11:10.

Some scholars believe that Matthew 11:20 begins a new stage in the ministry of Christ because of Israel's rejection of him.

Special concepts in this chapter

Hidden revelation

After Matthew 11:20 Jesus begins to reveal information about himself and about the plans of God the Father, while hiding this information from those who reject him (Matthew 11:25).

Other possible translation difficulties in this chapter

"The kingdom of heaven is near"

No one knows for sure whether the "kingdom of heaven" was present or still coming when John spoke these words. English translations often use the phrase "at hand," but these words can be difficult to translate. Other versions use the phrases "is coming near" and "has come near."

Matthew wrote about John the Baptist here.

What did John’s disciples ask Jesus?

[11:3]

People who followed John the Baptist asked Jesus if he was “the one who is coming.” They wanted to know if Jesus was the messiah. John already knew that Jesus was the Messiah (see: Matthew 3:11). Here, John wanted Jesus to tell him again that he was the messiah. Perhaps he wanted to know why he was in prison if Jesus was the Messiah. Or perhaps Jesus did not do the things John thought the messiah would do.

See: Messiah (Christ)

What did it mean that someone was lame?

[11:5]

Someone who was lame could not walk.

What was a leper?

[11:5]

See: Stumble (Stumbling Block); Metaphor; Messiah (Christ); Stumble (Stumbling Block)

11:7-19

What were the things Jesus had to say about John the Baptist?

[11:7]

Jesus talked to the crowd about John the Baptist. John the Baptist lived in the desert and wore clothing that was not comfortable. Jesus talked about a reed shaken by the wind. He wanted to say that John did not change because of what people thought about him. He did what God wanted him to do no matter what people said. He did not live in the way powerful kings lived. Instead, he lived as a prophet lived. He focused on telling people about God, not on living in a certain way.

See: Prophet

How was John greater than a prophet?

[11:9]

John the Baptist was a prophet. However, he did something that no previous prophet did. He prophesied to prepare people for the coming of the Messiah. John’s message was the greatest message of all.

See: Malachi 3:1

See: Messiah (Christ); Prophecy (Prophesy) ; Messiah (Christ)

How was someone in the kingdom of heaven greater than John the Baptist?

[11:11]

Jesus said that John the Baptist was the greatest person who ever lived, except Jesus. However, anyone who lives in the kingdom was greater than John the Baptist. That is, anyone who lives in the kingdom, was greater in some way that anyone who lived under the Law of Moses.

See: Law of Moses; Law of Moses

How did the kingdom of heaven suffer violence?

[11:12]

Some scholars think the kingdom was being violently attacked. That is, there was evil forces attacked the kingdom of God. These scholars think an example of this was John the Baptist being put into prison and then later killed because he spoke about the messiah (see: Mark 6:17-29). Other scholars think the kingdom was forcefully advancing into the world. That is, Jesus was casting out demons and performing miraculous signs, showing the power of the kingdom of God.

See: Sign; Demon Possession (Casting Out Demons); Miracle; Sign

What was the Law and the Prophets?

[11:13]

See: Old Testament (Law and Prophets)

How was John the return of Elijah?

[11:14]

Malachi prophesied that the prophet Elijah would return (see: Malachi 4:5-6). Jesus taught the people that John the Baptist was the fulfillment of the prophecy about the return of Elijah. That is, Malachi was prophesying about a man who was like Elijah would return, and that man was John.

See: Fulfill (Fulfillment) ; Prophet; Fulfill (Fulfillment)

Why did Jesus say the Jews were like children?

[11:16]

Jesus said that these Jews were like children. This was metaphor. Just like children will complain when no one dances to their songs, so the people complained against all of God’s prophets, including John the Baptist and Jesus.

See: Prophet; Prophet

[11:19]

A gluttonous man was someone who ate too much. They spend most of their life eating and thinking about eating.

[11:19]

What was a tax collector?

[11:19]

Matthew was a tax collector. People in Israel hated the tax collectors. Tax collectors were Jews who worked for the Roman government. They paid the Romans so they could collect taxes from other people. If they collected more taxes than they paid the Roman government, then they were allowed to keep it. Because of this, many tax collectors became rich. The Jews thought a Jewish tax collector betrayed the Jewish people because they took money from the Jews and gave it to the Romans. They thought tax collectors were evil because they took money from people who honored God and gave it to people who rejected God.

See: Tax (Tax Collector, Toll))

Who were sinners?

[11:19]

Matthew wrote about sinners. All people sinned. However, these were people who sinned in a way that other people knew they sinned. People judged them as evil. The Jews would not be friends with these people. The Pharisees would not eat with them because they thought sinners were unclean.

See: Judge (Judgment); Clean and Unclean; Pharisees; Judge (Judgment)

How was wisdom justified by her deeds?

[11:19]

Jesus said that wisdom was justified by her deeds. This was a metaphor. He wanted to say that he and John were right for living in the way they did. The way they lived helped people to know that they served God because they did the things God sent them to do.

See: Metaphor

11:20-30

Why did Jesus reproach certain cities?

[11:20]

Jesus reproached certain cities. He rebuked the people who lived in these cities because they rejected him. The people in these cities did not repent.

See: Repent (Repentance)

Where were Chorazin, Bethsaida, Tyre, and Sidon?

[11:21, 11:22]

See: Map: Chorazin; Bethsaida; Tyre and Sidon

Why did people wear sackcloth and ashes?

See: Repent (Repentance); Repent (Repentance)

Where was Capernaum?

[11:23]

See Map: Capernaum

Why did Jesus talk about Sodom?

[11:23]

Sodom was an ancient city. The people of Sodom were very evil (see: Genesis 19). No one in Sodom obeyed God. Jesus was saying that if he had done the same kind of miracles in Sodom as he did in the regions around Jerusalem, the people of Sodom would have repented. But, because the cities of Chorazin, Bethsaida, Tyre, and Sidon rejected Jesus, these cities would be punished more than Sodom in the day of judgement.

See: Miracle; Day of Judgment; Miracle

Why was Jesus pleased that God only helped certain people to know about him?

[11:25]

Jesus praised God because he concealed things from people who thought they were wise. When Jesus said that God “revealed them to little children” he used a metaphor. That is, Jesus said that God revealed his truth to people who were humble and knew they needed help from God.

See: Reveal (Revelation); Humble (Humility); Reveal (Revelation)

How did Jesus talk about himself and God the Father?

[11:27]

Scholars think Jesus spoke about himself and God the Father as being one. That is, they are of the same nature and character. They know each other perfectly.

See: Trinity; Son of God; Trinity

How does God reveal?

[11:27]

See: Reveal (Revelation)

What did Jesus mean when he said, “I will give you rest”?

[11:28]

Jesus said, “I will give you rest.” Some scholars think Jesus meant that he will refresh those who were weary. Other scholars think Jesus meant that he would encourage and strengthen them to do difficult things. In addition, people can be at rest because they are at peace with God.

What was a yoke?

[11:29, 11:30]

A “yoke” was a thick wooden beam that was set across the neck and shoulders of animals. This allowed the animals to pull heavy loads in a cart, or to pull a plow. When Jesus spoke about a yoke, he used a metaphor. That is, Jesus was willing to share any burden or hardship a Christian might have in their life.

Other versions assume a positive interpretation, that the call to enter the kingdom of God has become so urgent that people must act in an extreme manner in order to answer that call and to resist the temptation to sin further. A third interpretation is that violent people are harming God's people and trying to stop God from ruling.

Jesus continues the parable that begins with the words "It is like" in verse 16.

saying ... and you did not weep

Jesus uses a parable to describe the people who were alive at that time. He compares them to a group of children who are trying to get the other children to play with them. However, no matter what they do, the other children will not join them. Jesus means that it does not matter if God sends someone like John the Baptist, who lives in the desert and fasts, or someone like Jesus, who celebrates with sinners and does not fast. The people, most specifically the Pharisees and religious leaders, still remain stubborn and refuse to accept God's truth.

We played a flute for you

and you did not dance

Matthew 11:19

The Son of Man came

Jesus is referring to himself. Alternate translation: "I, the Son of Man, came"

This is the opposite of John's behavior. This means more than just consuming the normal amount of food and drink. It means Jesus celebrated and enjoyed good food and drink like other people did.

they say, 'Look, he is a gluttonous man and a drunkard ... sinners!'

This can be translated as an indirect quote. Alternate translation: "they say that he is a gluttonous man and a drunkard ... sinners." or "they accuse him of eating and drinking too much and of being ... sinners." If you translated "The Son of Man" as "I, the Son of man," you can state this as an indirect statement and use the first person. Alternate translation: "they say that I am a gluttonous man and a drunkard ... sinners."

he is a gluttonous man and a drunkard

"he is a greedy eater and a drunk" or "he continually eats too much food and drinks too much alcohol"

But wisdom is justified by her deeds

This is a proverb that Jesus applies to this situation, because the people who rejected both him and John were not being wise. Jesus and John the Baptist are the wise ones, and the results of their deeds prove it.

wisdom is justified by her deeds

"How terrible it will be for you." Here "you" is singular and refers to the city. If it is more natural to refer to the people instead of a city, you could translate with a plural "you."

Chorazin ... Bethsaida ... Tyre ... Sidon

The names of these cities are used as metonyms for the people living in these cities.

If the miracles ... in sackcloth and ashes

Jesus is describing a situation that could have happened in the past, but it did not.

You

All occurrences of "you" are singular. If it is more natural to refer to the people of the city, you could translate with a plural "you."

Capernaum ... Sodom

The names of these cities refer to the people living in Capernaum and in Sodom.

do you think you will be exalted to heaven?

"do you think you will be raised up to heaven?" Jesus uses a rhetorical question to rebuke the people of Capernaum for their pride.

General Information:

Here, Jesus prays to his heavenly Father while still in the presence of the crowd.

Father

This is an important title for God.

Lord of heaven and earth

"Lord who rules over heaven and earth." The phrase "heaven and earth" is a merism that refers to all people and things in the universe. Alternate translation: "Lord who rules over the whole universe"

you concealed these things ... and revealed them

It is not clear what is meant by "these things." If your language needs to specify what is meant, an alternative translation might be best. Alternate translation: "you concealed these truths ... and revealed them"

you concealed these things from

"you hid these things from" or "you have not made these things known to." This verb is the opposite of "revealed."

from the wise and understanding

These nominal adjectives can be translated as adjectives. Alternate translation: "from people who are wise and understanding"

Matthew 11:28

all you

who labor and are heavy burdened

Chapter 12

1 At that time Jesus went on the Sabbath day through the grainfields. His disciples were hungry and began to pluck heads of grain and eat them. 2 But when the Pharisees saw that, they said to Jesus, "See, your disciples do what is unlawful to do on the Sabbath."

3 But Jesus said to them, "Have you never read what David did when he was hungry, and the men who were with him? 4 He went into the house of God and ate the bread of the presence, which was unlawful for him to eat and unlawful for those who were with him, but lawful only for the priests. 5 Have you not read in the law that on the Sabbath the priests in the temple profane the Sabbath but are guiltless? 6 But I say to you that one greater than the temple is here. 7 If you had known what this meant, 'I desire mercy and not sacrifice,' you would not have condemned the guiltless. 8 For the Son of Man is Lord of the Sabbath."

9 Then Jesus left from there and went into their synagogue. 10 Behold, there was a man who had a withered hand. The Pharisees asked Jesus, saying, "Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath?" so that they might accuse him of sinning.

11 Jesus said to them, "What man would there be among you, who, if he had just one sheep, and if this sheep fell into a pit on the Sabbath, would not take hold of it and raise it out? 12 How much more valuable, then, is a man than a sheep! Therefore it is lawful to do good on the Sabbath." 13 Then Jesus said to the man, "Stretch out your hand." He stretched it out, and it was restored to health, just like the other hand. 14 But the Pharisees went out and plotted against him. They were seeking how they might destroy him.

15 Jesus, knowing this, withdrew from there. Many people followed him, and he healed them all. 16 He commanded them not to make him known to others, 17 that it might be fulfilled, what had been said through Isaiah the prophet, saying,

 

    18 "See, my servant whom I have chosen;

         my beloved one, in whom my soul is well pleased.

     I will put my Spirit upon him,

         and he will proclaim justice to the Gentiles.

    19 He will not strive nor cry aloud;

         neither will anyone hear his voice in the streets.

    20 He will not break any bruised reed;

         he will not quench any smoking flax,

         until he leads justice to victory,

    21 and in his name the Gentiles will have hope."

22 Then someone blind and mute, possessed by a demon, was brought to Jesus. He healed him, with the result that the mute man spoke and saw. 23 All the crowds were amazed and said, "Can this man be the Son of David?"

24 But when the Pharisees heard of this miracle, they said, "This man does not cast out demons except by Beelzebul, the prince of the demons."

25 But Jesus knew their thoughts and said to them, "Every kingdom divided against itself is made desolate, and every city or house divided against itself will not stand. 26 If Satan drives out Satan, he is divided against himself. How then will his kingdom stand? 27 And if I drive out demons by Beelzebul, by whom do your sons drive them out? For this reason they will be your judges. 28 But if I drive out demons by the Spirit of God, then the kingdom of God has come upon you. 29 How can anyone enter the house of the strong man and take away his belongings without tying up the strong man first? Then he will steal his belongings from his house. 30 The one who is not with me is against me, and the one who does not gather with me scatters. 31 Therefore I say to you, every sin and blasphemy will be forgiven men, but the blasphemy against the Spirit will not be forgiven. 32 Whoever speaks any word against the Son of Man, that will be forgiven him. But whoever speaks against the Holy Spirit, that will not be forgiven him, neither in this world, nor in that which is to come. 33 Make a tree good and its fruit good, or make the tree bad and its fruit bad, for a tree is recognized by its fruit. 34 You offspring of vipers, since you are evil, how can you say good things? For out of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaks. 35 The good man from the good treasure of his heart produces what is good, and the evil man from the evil treasure of his heart produces what is evil. 36 I say to you that in the day of judgment people will give an account for every idle word they will have said. 37 For by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned."

38 Then certain scribes and Pharisees answered Jesus and said, "Teacher, we wish to see a sign from you."

39 But Jesus answered and said to them, "An evil and adulterous generation seeks for a sign. But no sign will be given to it except the sign of Jonah the prophet. 40 For as Jonah was three days and three nights in the stomach of the big fish, so will the Son of Man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth. 41 The men of Nineveh will stand up at the judgment with this generation of people and will condemn it. For they repented at the preaching of Jonah, and see, someone greater than Jonah is here. 42 The Queen of the South will rise up at the judgment with the men of this generation and condemn them. She came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon, and see, someone greater than Solomon is here. 43 When an unclean spirit has gone away from a man, it passes through waterless places and looks for rest, but does not find it. 44 Then it says, 'I will return to my house from which I came.' Having returned, it finds the house empty—it had been swept clean and put in order. 45 Then it goes and takes along with it seven other spirits more evil than itself, and they all come in to live there. Then the final condition of that man becomes worse than the first. It will be just like that with this evil generation."

46 While Jesus was still speaking to the crowds, behold, his mother and his brothers stood outside, seeking to speak to him. 47 Someone said to him, "Look, your mother and your brothers stand outside, seeking to speak to you."

48 But Jesus answered and said to him who told him, "Who is my mother and who are my brothers?" 49 Then he stretched out his hand toward his disciples and said, "See, here are my mother and my brothers! 50 For whoever does the will of my Father who is in heaven, that person is my brother, and sister, and mother."


Matthew 12 General Notes

Structure and formatting

Some translations set poetry farther to the right than the rest of the text to show that it is poetry. The ULB does this with the poetry in 12:18-21, which is from the Old Testament.

Special concepts in this chapter

The Sabbath

This chapter has much to say about how God's people are to obey the Sabbath. Jesus said that the rules that the Pharisees made up did not help people obey the Sabbath the way God wanted them to. (See: sabbath)

"Blasphemy against the Spirit"

No one knows for sure what actions people perform or what words they say when they commit this sin. However, they probably insult the Holy Spirit and his work. Part of the Holy Spirit's work is to make people understand that they are sinners and that they need to have God forgive them. Therefore, anyone who does not try to stop sinning is probably committing blasphemy against the Spirit. (See: blasphemy and holyspirit)


Matthew 12

12:1-8

Why did the Pharisees think that it was wrong to pluck heads of grain and eat them?

[12:2]

The pharisees thought that it was against the Law of Moses to pluck heads of grain and eat them on the Sabbath. This is because they thought it was work, which was forbidden on the Sabbath. However, they misunderstood the Law of Moses regarding the picking of grain on the Sabbath.

See: Deuteronomy 23:25

See: Pharisees; Sabbath; Pharisees

How did Jesus tell the pharisees that the disciples did not break the Law of Moses?

[12:3, 12:4, 12:5]

Jesus told the Pharisee that the disciples did not break the Law of Moses. They were allowed to do this because they were traveling and hungry. This was similar to what King David did (see: 1 Samuel 21:1-6). He also told them that the priests violated the rules the Pharisees made about the sabbath by working in the temple on the Sabbath. He also wanted them to know that he is greater than the Sabbath. Jesus created the Sabbath and the rules for the Sabbath. This made him ruler over the Sabbath.

See: Priest (Priesthood); Sabbath; Son of Man; Pharisees; Disciple; Priest (Priesthood)

What was the house of God?

[12:4]

The temple was the house of God.

See: Temple

Why did God desire mercy and not sacrifice?

[12:7]

God said that he wanted mercy and not sacrifice (see: Hosea 6:6). God wanted sacrifice, but he did not want people to make sacrifices to him in the wrong way. That is, if people did not love one another or show mercy to one another, their sacrifices would be given in the wrong way.

See: Sacrifice; Offer (Offering); Sacrifice

12:9-23

Why did the Pharisees want to ask Jesus about healing this man on the Sabbath?

[12:10]

The Pharisees asked Jesus about healing this man on the Sabbath. They taught that someone could not be healed on the Sabbath unless that person was going to die. If someone healed this person, then this was work and broke the Law of Moses. They wanted Jesus to heal this man so they could tell people that Jesus sinned. However, this was not sin. They just thought it was a sin.

The pharisees thought that it was not against the Law of Moses to help their sheep on the Sabbath. Therefore, Jesus wanted them to know that it was also good to heal this man on the sabbath because people are more valuable that animals. He wanted the pharisees to think about this and know that they were wrong in their thinking.

See: Sin; Sabbath; Law of Moses; Sin

Why did the Pharisees want to destroy Jesus?

[12:14]

The Pharisees were angry after Jesus healed this man. They thought he sinned and he made them look like they were evil.

Why did Jesus not want people to tell other people about the things he did?

A kingdom “is made desolate” when the country or nation was destroyed. That is, there would be only a few people left alive and the country would be ruined.

Why did Jesus ask the Pharisees, about driving out demons?

[12:27]

Jesus’ question was a rebuke to the Pharisees. Jesus condemned the Pharisees’ followers for doing the same things they accused Jesus of doing. However, Jesus did not do these things.

How were people with or against Jesus?

[12:30]

Jesus said that people were either with him or against him. That is, people either fought with him in some way or against him in some way. When he said this, he wanted to say that people could either believe in him or reject him. They could not do both of these things at the same time.

What was the blasphemy of the Holy Spirit?

[12:31}

Scholars think different things about how someone blasphemes the Holy Spirit.

  1. Some scholars think Jesus spoke about people rejecting him. If someone does not believe in Jesus, then they will not be forgiven of their sins.

  2. Some scholars think Jesus spoke about someone seeing Jesus do miracles and saying that Satan gave him the power to do this. Therefore, people today cannot blaspheme the Holy Spirit.

  3. Other scholars think Jesus spoke about people who said that the Holy Spirit did not do the things that he did.

See: Satan (The Devil); Blaspheme (Blasphemy); Holy Spirit; Miracle; Satan (The Devil)

Why did Jesus talk about trees and fruit?

[12:33]

Jesus talked about trees and fruit. This was a metaphor. Scholars think different things about what this metaphor meant:

  1. Some scholars Jesus compared himself to a tree, and the miracles he did as the fruit. They think Jesus was telling the Pharisees that they could not say that his miracles were good, but that he, as a person, was bad.

  2. Some scholars think Jesus was speaking about the Pharisees. That is, the things they did were different from the things they said they believed.

See: Pharisees; Fruit (Metaphor); Pharisees

What did Jesus mean by calling the Pharisees the “offspring of vipers”?

[12:34]

See: Metaphor; Metaphor

What was the “sign of the prophet Jonah”?

[12:39]

Jonah was a prophet in ancient Israel (see: Jonah 1-4). He was swallowed by a very large fish and was in the fish for three days. After three days, he was released. Something like this was going to happen to Jesus. He would die and after three days, he would come back to life.

Where was Nineveh?

[12:41]

See Map: Nineveh

How were the people of Nineveh going to judge the Jews?

[12:41]

When Jesus spoke about standing up to judge the Jews, he used a metaphor. When God sent Jonah the prophet to Nineveh to speak for God, the people there repented. However, when God sent Jesus into the world, the Scribes and Pharisees rejected Jesus and the things he taught. Therefore in some way, this will serve as a judgment against people who do not repent from their evil ways, that they might obey and follow Jesus.

See: Judge (Judgment); Repent (Repentance); Prophet; Scribe; Pharisees; Judge (Judgment)

See: Jonah 3:1-10

See: Demon Possession (Casting Out Demons); Demon; Demon Possession (Casting Out Demons)

Who were Jesus’ mother and brothers?

[12:46]

When Jesus was speaking, his mother and brothers wanted to speak with him. This was his mother Mary and her sons. Jesus told them about another type of mother and brother. Scholars think Jesus wanted people to know that people who obeyed God were his true family.

This can be stated in active form. Alternate translation: "someone had swept the house clean and has put everything in the house where it belongs"

Matthew 12:45

Connecting Statement:

This means that if the people of Jesus's generation do not believe him and become his disciples, they will be in a worse situation than they were before he came.

Matthew 12:46

General Information:

The arrival of Jesus's mother and brothers becomes an opportunity for him to describe his spiritual family.

Someone said to him, "Look, your mother and your brothers stand outside, seeking to speak to you."

This can be translated as an indirect quotation. Alternate translation: "Someone told Jesus that his mother and brothers were outside and wanted to speak to him."

Matthew 12:48

Connecting Statement:

This is the end of the part of the story that began in Matthew 12:1, where Matthew tells of growing opposition to Jesus's ministry.

who told him

The details of the message the person told Jesus are understood and not repeated here. Alternate translation: "who told him that his mother and brothers wanted to speak to him"

Who is my mother and who are my brothers?

Jesus uses these questions to teach the people. Alternate translation: "I will tell you who are really my mother and brothers"

Matthew 12:49

Chapter 13

1 On that day Jesus went out of the house and sat beside the sea. 2 A very large crowd gathered around him, so he got into a boat and sat in it while the whole crowd stood on the beach. 3 Then Jesus said many things to them in parables. He said, "Behold, a farmer went out to sow seed. 4 As he sowed, some seeds fell beside the road, and the birds came and devoured them. 5 Other seeds fell on rocky ground, where they did not have much soil. Immediately they sprang up because the soil had no depth. 6 But when the sun had risen, they were scorched because they had no root, and they withered away. 7 Other seeds fell among the thorn plants. The thorn plants grew up and choked them. 8 Other seeds fell on good soil and produced a crop, some one hundred times as much, some sixty, and some thirty. 9 He who has ears, let him hear."

10 The disciples came and said to Jesus, "Why do you talk to the crowd in parables?"

11 Jesus answered and said to them, "You have been given the privilege of understanding mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it is not given. 12 For whoever has will be given more, and he will have an abundance. But whoever does not have, even what he has will be taken away from him. 13 This is why I talk to them in parables:

 

     Though they are seeing,

         they do not see;

     and though they are hearing,

         they do not hear, or understand.

14 To them the prophecy of Isaiah is fulfilled, that which says,

 

     'Listening, you will hear, but you will never understand;

         seeing, you will see, but you will never know.

    15 For the heart of this people has become dull,

         and with their ears they hardly hear,

         and they have shut their eyes.

     Otherwise they might see with their eyes,

         and hear with their ears,

         and understand with their heart and turn again,

     and I would heal them."' 16 But blessed are your eyes, for they see; and your ears, for they hear. 17 Truly I say to you that many prophets and righteous men desired to see the things that you see and did not see them. They desired to hear the things that you hear and did not hear them. 18 Listen then to the parable of the farmer who sowed his seed. 19 When anyone hears the word of the kingdom but does not understand it, the evil one comes and snatches away what has been sown in his heart. This is the seed that was sown beside the road. 20 What was sown on rocky ground is the person who hears the word and immediately receives it with joy, 21 yet he has no root in himself and he endures for a while. When tribulation or persecution arises because of the word, he quickly falls away. 22 What was sown among the thorn plants, this is the person who hears the word, but the cares of the world and the deceitfulness of riches choke the word, and he becomes unfruitful. 23 The seed that was sown on the good soil, this is the person who hears the word and understands it. He bears fruit and produces a crop, yielding in one case a hundred, in another sixty, and in another thirty times as much as was planted."

24 Jesus presented another parable to them. He said, "The kingdom of heaven is like a man who sowed good seed in his field. 25 But while people slept, his enemy came and also sowed weeds among the wheat and then went away. 26 When the blades sprouted and then produced their crop, then the weeds appeared also. 27 The servants of the landowner came and said to him, 'Sir, did you not sow good seed in your field? How does it now have weeds?'

28 "He said to them, 'An enemy has done this.'

"The servants said to him, 'So do you want us to go and pull them out?'

29 "The landowner said, 'No. Because while you are pulling out the weeds, you might uproot the wheat with them. 30 Let both grow together until the harvest. At the time of the harvest I will say to the reapers, "First pull out the weeds and tie them in bundles to burn them, but gather the wheat into my barn."'"

31 Then Jesus presented another parable to them. He said, "The kingdom of heaven is like a mustard seed which a man took and sowed in his field. 32 This seed is indeed the smallest of all seeds. But when it has grown, it is greater than the garden plants. It becomes a tree, so that the birds of the sky come and nest in its branches." 33 Jesus then told them another parable. "The kingdom of heaven is like yeast that a woman took and mixed with three measures of flour until all the dough had risen."

34 All these things Jesus said to the crowds in parables; and he said nothing to them without a parable. 35 This was in order that what had been said through the prophet might be fulfilled, when he said,

    

     "I will open my mouth in parables.

         I will say things that were hidden from the foundation of the world."

36 Then Jesus left the crowds and went into the house. His disciples came to him and said, "Explain to us the parable of the weeds of the field."

37 Jesus answered and said, "He who sows the good seed is the Son of Man. 38 The field is the world; and the good seed, these are the sons of the kingdom. The weeds are the sons of the evil one, 39 and the enemy who sowed them is the devil. The harvest is the end of the age, and the reapers are angels. 40 Therefore, as the weeds are gathered up and consumed by fire, so will it be at the end of the age. 41 The Son of Man will send out his angels, and they will gather out of his kingdom all stumbling blocks and those who commit lawlessness. 42 They will throw them into the furnace of fire, where there will be weeping and grinding of teeth. 43 Then will the righteous people shine like the sun in the kingdom of their Father. He who has ears, let him hear.

44 "The kingdom of heaven is like a treasure hidden in a field. A man found it and hid it. In his joy he goes, sells everything he possesses, and buys that field. 45 Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a man who is a merchant looking for valuable pearls. 46 When he found one very valuable pearl, he went and sold everything that he possessed and bought it.

47 "Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a net that was cast into the sea, and that gathered all kinds of fish. 48 When it was filled, the fishermen drew it up on the beach. Then they sat down and gathered the good ones into containers, but the bad ones they threw away. 49 It will be this way at the end of the age. The angels will come and separate the wicked from among the righteous. 50 They will throw them into the furnace of fire, where there will be weeping and grinding of teeth.

51 "Have you understood all these things?"

The disciples said to him, "Yes."

52 Then Jesus said to them, "Therefore every scribe who has become a disciple to the kingdom of heaven is like a man who is the owner of a house, who draws out old and new things from his treasure." 53 Then it came about that when Jesus had finished these parables, he departed from that place.

54 Then Jesus entered his own region and taught the people in their synagogue. The result was that they were astonished and said, "Where does this man get his wisdom and these miraculous powers from? 55 Is not this man the carpenter's son? Is not his mother called Mary? Are not his brothers James, Joseph, Simon, and Judas? 56 Are not all his sisters with us? Where did he get all these things?" 57 They were offended by him.

But Jesus said to them, "A prophet is not without honor except in his own country and in his own family." 58 He did not do many miracles there because of their unbelief.


Matthew 13 General Notes

Structure and formatting

Some translations set poetry farther to the right than the rest of the text to show that it is poetry. The ULB does this with the poetry in 13:14-15, which is from the Old Testament.

This chapter begins a new section. It contains some of Jesus's parables about the kingdom of heaven.

Important figures of speech in this chapter

Metonymy

Jesus often says the word "heaven" when he wants his hearers to think of God, who lives in heaven (Matthew 13:11).

Implicit information

Speakers usually do not say things that they think their hearers already understand. When Matthew wrote that Jesus "sat beside the sea"

Metaphor

Speakers often use words for things that can be touched to speak of things that cannot be touched. Jesus spoke of a bird eating a seed to describe how Satan kept people from understanding Jesus's message (Matthew 13:19).

Other possible translation difficulties in this chapter

Passive voice

Many sentences in this chapter tell that a person had something happen to him without saying who caused that something to happen. For example, "they were scorched"

Parables

The parables were short stories that Jesus told so that people would easily understand the lesson he was trying to teach them. He also told the stories so that those who did not want to believe in him would not understand the truth (Matthew 13:11-13).

[13:11]

Jesus spoke about the mystery of the kingdom of God. Jesus was speaking to the disciples. However, scholars think all Christians can know about the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven.

What was meant by the words, “seeing, they do not see”?

[13:13]

The words, “seeing, they do not see” meant that while a person could see, they did not understand the meaning of what was seen. Jesus also said that there were people who, “hearing, but they do not hear.” People heard Jesus’ words, but they did not understand what they were hearing.

How was Isaiah’s prophecy fulfilled?

[13:14]

Jesus said that one of Isaiah’s prophecies was fulfilled (see: Isaiah 6:9-10). Isaiah spoke about a time when some people would not understand the things God taught, but other people would understand the things God taught and they would repent.

What did Jesus mean when he spoke about someone’s heart becoming dull?

[13:18]

Jesus told the people to listen to the parable of the farmer because he was about to explain the meaning of this parable.

See: Parable

What was the word?

[13:19]

See: Kingdom of God; Sow (Plant); Metaphor; Word of God; Gospel; Kingdom of God

How were people like seeds sown beside the road?

[13:19]

Jesus used a metaphor to talk about what happened to some people when they heard the gospel. The road was a place where seeds could not grow. Some scholars think that Jesus spoke about peoples’ hearts that were hard, like a road. These people say they were Christians, but they did not do things that honored God. Therefore, they were not at peace with God. Other scholars think that Jesus spoke about people who were not Christians. These people did not believe in the things Jesus taught. They did not believe in Jesus.

See: Heart (Metaphor); Gospel; Satan (The Devil); Heart (Metaphor)

How were people like seeds sown on rocky ground?

[13:20]

Jesus used a metaphor to talk about what happened to some people when they heard the gospel. On the rocky ground, the seed could begin to grow. But there was not enough dirt for it to grow very much, so it died. Some scholars think that Jesus spoke about Christians. These people believed in Jesus, but they rejected Jesus when they were persecuted. Therefore, they were not at peace with God. Other scholars think that Jesus spoke about people who were not Christians. These people said they were Christians, but rejected Jesus when they were persecuted. Therefore, they were not Christians.

See: Gospel; Persecute (Persecution) ; Gospel

How were people like seeds sown with the thorns?

[13:22]

Jesus used a metaphor to talk about what happened to some people when they heard the gospel. Thorn plants were bad plants. The thorn plants killed the good plants. Some scholars think Jesus spoke about Christians who believed in Jesus, but they made other things more important than Jesus in their life. They did not honor God as much as they should have honored him. Other scholars think Jesus spoke about people who were not Christians. They said they were Christians, but they cared more for the things they owned than they cared for Jesus. They were not Christians.

Advice to translators: Here, “thorns” is a type of plant that grows among other plants and kills them. It is also not good to be used for anything.

See: Gospel; Metaphor; Gospel

How were people like seeds sown on good soil?

[13:23]

Jesus used a metaphor to talk about what happened to some people when they heard the gospel. People whose hearts were like “good soil” obeyed God and did things that honored God. They produced fruit when they did this. That is, they did not live in the way they used to live. They helped others to believe in Jesus and did the things that honored Jesus.

See: Metaphor; Metaphor

How did someone bear fruit?

[13:23]

See: Fruit (Metaphor)

13:24-30

How was the kingdom of heaven like a man who sowed good seeds in his field?

[13:24]

Jesus told the people another parable. He compared the kingdom of heaven to a man who sowed good seeds in his field. After this man did this, his enemies sowed weeds in his field. If weeds and wheat grew in the same field, the farmer would have to wait until both the weeds and the wheat were grown before he could remove the weeds. Jesus wanted people to know that there will be people in the world who believe in Jesus and do things that honor God. They are like the wheat in the parable. However, God has an enemy, Satan. Satan fights against God. Jesus wanted people to know that there will also be evil people in the world who reject God. They must remain in the world until a day when God judges everyone and separates the Christians from non-Christians. At this time, God will punish the non-Christians. When Jesus spoke about the harvest, he was speaking about the day of judgment.

See: Day of Judgment; Kingdom of God; Satan (The Devil); Harvest; Day of Judgment;

13:31-36

How was the kingdom of heaven like a mustard seed?

[13:31]

Jesus said the kingdom of heaven was like a mustard seed. This was a metaphor. The mustard seed was very small seed. It was about 1 millimeter in size. A mustard tree was very large. Jesus wanted to say that the kingdom of God began very small, but will become very great.

See: Metaphor; Metaphor

Why did Jesus tell the parable of yeast?

[13:33]

Jesus told the parable of yeast to say that God will reign over the whole world. When a woman mixed a small amount of yeast with a big amount of flour, the flour raised. In the same way, some scholars think God’s rule over a few people would spread throughout the whole world. Other scholars think Jesus was speaking about his rule over Jerusalem.

See: Parable; Parable

Why did Jesus talk about weeping and the grinding of teeth?

[13:42]

Jesus said that people who were being punished would cry loudly and grind their teeth. Because they were punished, they would have much pain. They would cry because of the pain.

See: Punish (Punishment)

Why did the people wonder who taught Jesus?

[13:54]

In ancient Israel, many teachers learned from other teachers. They then taught the same things their teachers taught. This is why they wanted to know who taught Jesus. He did not teach the same things any other teacher taught.

Why did the people ask who gave Jesus the power to do miracles?

[13:54]

The people asked who gave Jesus the power to do miracles. They did not think God gave Jesus the power to do these miracles. They thought Satan gave him the power (see: Mark 3:22).

See: Satan (The Devil); Satan (The Devil)

Did Jesus have brothers and sisters?

[13:55, 13:56]

These people were talking about Jesus’ brothers and sisters. Some scholars think that Mary and Joseph had other children after Jesus was born. Fewer scholars think that Mary and Joseph did not have any more children after Jesus. They think these were cousins of Jesus.

What did Matthew mean when he said the people were offended by Jesus?

[13:57]

When Matthew said that the people were offended, he meant that the people rejected Jesus. They did not believe he was sent from God and their messiah.

See: Messiah (Christ)

How was a prophet honored?

[13:57]

Jesus said that people honored a prophet, except in his hometown. To honor a prophet was to show him great respect, and to listen closely to the things he spoke, because a prophet spoke the truth from God. Jesus was a prophet. Perhaps he was also thinking about how Israel would reject him as their messiah.

See: Messiah (Christ); Messiah (Christ)

Why did Jesus not do many miracles in Nazareth?

[13:58]

Jesus did miracles so that people would know that God sent him. However, the people in Nazareth did not think God sent Jesus to be the messiah. They would not believe he was the messiah even if Jesus did many miracles. Therefore, Jesus did not do many miracles in Nazareth.

This is all a metaphor describing the people's spiritual condition. It means the people are stubborn and refuse to receive and understand God's truth.

Chapter 14

1 About that time, Herod the tetrarch heard the news about Jesus. 2 He said to his servants, "This is John the Baptist; he has risen from the dead. Therefore these powers are at work in him."

3 For Herod had arrested John, bound him, and put him in prison because of Herodias, his brother Philip's wife. 4 For John had said to him, "It is not lawful for you to have her as your wife." 5 Herod would have killed him, but he feared the people, because they regarded him as a prophet.

6 But when Herod's birthday came, the daughter of Herodias danced in the midst and pleased Herod. 7 In response, he promised with an oath to give her whatever she should ask. 8 After being instructed by her mother, she said, "Give me here, on a platter, the head of John the Baptist." 9 The king was grieved by her request, but because of his oath and because of all those at dinner with him, he ordered that it should be done. 10 He sent and beheaded John in the prison. 11 Then his head was brought on a platter and given to the girl and she took it to her mother. 12 Then his disciples came, took up the corpse, and buried it. After this, they went and told Jesus.

13 Now when Jesus heard this, he withdrew from there in a boat to a deserted place. When the crowds heard of it, they followed him on foot from the cities. 14 Then Jesus came before them and saw the large crowd. He had compassion on them and healed their sick. 15 When the evening had come, the disciples came to him and said, "This is a deserted place, and the hour has already passed. Dismiss the crowds, so that they can go into the villages and buy food for themselves."

16 But Jesus said to them, "They have no need to go away. You give them something to eat."

17 They said to him, "We have here only five loaves of bread and two fish."

18 Jesus said, "Bring them to me." 19 Then Jesus ordered the crowd to sit down on the grass. He took the five loaves and the two fish. Looking up to heaven, he blessed and broke the loaves and gave them to the disciples, and the disciples gave them to the crowd. 20 They all ate and were filled. Then they took up what remained of the broken pieces of food—twelve baskets full. 21 Those who ate were about five thousand men, besides women and children.

22 Immediately he made the disciples get into the boat and go before him to the other side, while he sent away the crowds. 23 After he had sent away the crowds, he went up on the mountain by himself to pray. When evening came, he was there alone. 24 But the boat was now a long way from land, being tossed about by the waves, for the wind was blowing against them. 25 In the fourth watch of the night Jesus approached them, walking on the sea. 26 When the disciples saw him walking on the sea, they were troubled and said, "It is a ghost," and they cried out in fear.

27 But Jesus spoke to them right away and said, "Be brave! It is I! Do not be afraid."

28 Peter answered him and said, "Lord, if it is you, command me to come to you on the water."

29 Jesus said, "Come."

So Peter got out from the boat and walked on the water to go to Jesus. 30 But when Peter saw the strong wind, he became afraid. As he began to sink, he cried out and said, "Lord, save me!"

31 Jesus immediately stretched out his hand, took hold of Peter, and said to him, "You of little faith, why did you doubt?"

32 Then when Jesus and Peter went into the boat, the wind ceased blowing. 33 Then the disciples in the boat worshiped Jesus and said, "Truly you are the Son of God."

34 When they had crossed over, they came to land at Gennesaret. 35 When the men in that place recognized Jesus, they sent messages everywhere into the surrounding area, and they brought to him everyone who was sick. 36 They begged him that they might just touch the edge of his garment, and as many as touched it were healed.

Matthew 14

14:1-12

Who was Herod the tetrarch?

[14:1]

See: King Herod

What were the powers that were at work with Jesus?

[14:2]

Herod said that certain powers were at work in Jesus. At this time, many Jews thought that someone received great power to do miracles if they were resurrected. Since Herod thought Jesus was John the Baptist resurrected, this is why he thought Jesus received his power to do miracles. Herod did not think God gave Jesus the power to do these things.

See: King Herod ; Miracle; King Herod

Why did Herod arrest John the Baptist?

[14:3]

John the Baptist spoke against King Herod. He said the things Herod did were evil. John said it was wrong for Herod to marry Herodias because her husband Philip was still alive. This made Herodias angry. Herodias wanted to kill John. However, Herod worried about what people would do if he killed John because the people knew John to be a prophet. Therefore, he put him into prison.

See: Leviticus 20:21

See: King Herod; King Herod

What did it mean that Herodias’ daughter’s dance pleased Herod?

What was an oath?

[14:7]

See: Swear (Oath)

Why was Herod upset with his step-daughter’s request?

[14:9]

Herod was upset because he did not want to kill John the Baptist. He knew John was a man who honored God. However, he did not want people to see him break his oath. Therefore, he had John killed.

See: King Herod; King Herod

Why did John’s disciples take his body and bury it?

[14:12]

What were the five loaves about which the disciples spoke?

[14:17]

The loaves of bread about which the disciples spoke were round, flat cakes of bread about the size of a man’s hand.

Why did Jesus “bless” the bread?

[14:19]

When Jesus blessed the bread, he was thanking God for giving them the bread.

How much did the people have left over after they ate?

[14:20]

After they ate, the disciples had far more food left than what they began with. Scholars think this was to show how great this miracle was.

See: Miracle

How many people ate the bread and fish?

[14:21]

Matthew said that 5000 men ate the bread and fish. There were also women and children who needed to eat. Therefore, many more than 5000 people ate.

What was the fourth watch of the night?

[14:25]

When Matthew wrote about the fourth watch, he was writing about a time after midnight, between 3:00 and 6:00 a.m.

What was a ghost?

[14:26]

The disciples saw Jesus walking on the water. They did not think anyone could do this. Therefore, they thought he was a ghost. A “ghost” referred to the spirit of someone who had died. The disciples thought he was not real, even though he could be seen.

See: Spirit (Spiritual); Spirit (Spiritual)

What did Peter doubt?

[14:31]

Matthew wrote that Peter doubted something. That is, he did not trust in Jesus to do the thing he promised to do.

Why did the disciples worship Jesus?

[14:33]

The disciples worshipped Jesus because they believed he was the Son of God. They believed Jesus is God because only God could do the miracles Jesus did.

Chapter 15

1 Then some Pharisees and scribes came to Jesus from Jerusalem. They said, 2 "Why do your disciples violate the traditions of the elders? For they do not wash their hands when they eat bread."

3 He answered and said to them, "Then why do you violate the commandment of God for the sake of your traditions? 4 For God said, 'Honor your father and your mother,' and 'He who speaks evil of his father or mother will surely die.' 5 But you say, 'Whoever says to his father or mother, "Whatever help you would have received from me is now a gift given to God," 6 that person does not need to honor his father.' In this way you have made void the word of God [1] for the sake of your traditions. 7 You hypocrites! Well did Isaiah prophesy about you when he said,

 

    8 'This people honors me with their lips,

         but their heart is far from me.

    9 They worship me in vain

         because they teach as their doctrines the commandments of people.'"

10 Then he called the crowd to himself and said to them, "Listen and understand— 11 Nothing that enters into the mouth defiles a person. Instead, what comes out of the mouth, this is what defiles a person."

12 Then the disciples came and said to Jesus, "Do you know that the Pharisees were offended when they heard this statement?"

13 Jesus answered and said, "Every plant that my heavenly Father has not planted will be rooted up. 14 Let them alone, they are blind guides. If a blind person guides another blind person, both will fall into a pit."

15 Peter responded and said to Jesus, "Explain this parable to us."

16 Jesus said, "Are you also still without understanding? 17 Do you not understand that whatever goes into the mouth passes into the stomach and then goes out into the latrine? 18 But the things that come out of the mouth come from the heart. They are the things that defile a person. 19 For from the heart proceed evil thoughts, murder, adultery, sexual immorality, theft, false witness, and slander. 20 These are the things that defile a person. But to eat with unwashed hands does not defile a person."

21 Then Jesus went away from there and withdrew toward the regions of the cities of Tyre and Sidon. 22 Behold, a Canaanite woman came out from that region. She shouted out and said, "Have mercy on me, Lord, Son of David! My daughter is severely demon-possessed."

23 But Jesus answered her not a word. His disciples came and begged him, saying, "Send her away, for she is shouting after us."

24 But Jesus answered and said, "I was not sent to anyone except to the lost sheep of the house of Israel."

25 But she came and bowed down before him, saying, "Lord, help me."

26 He answered and said, "It is not proper to take the children's bread and throw it to the little dogs."

27 She said, "Yes, Lord, but even the little dogs eat some of the crumbs that fall from their masters' tables."

28 Then Jesus answered and said to her, "Woman, great is your faith; let it be done for you just as you wish." Her daughter was healed from that hour.

29 Jesus left that place and went near to the Sea of Galilee. Then he went up a hill and sat there. 30 Large crowds came to him. They brought with them lame, blind, mute, and crippled people, and many others who were sick. They presented them at Jesus' feet, and he healed them. 31 So the crowd marveled when they saw the mute persons speak, the crippled made well, the lame walking, and the blind seeing. They glorified the God of Israel.

32 Jesus called his disciples to him and said, "I have compassion on the crowd because they have stayed with me for three days already and have nothing to eat. I do not want to send them away without eating, or they may faint on the way."

33 The disciples said to him, "Where can we get enough loaves of bread in such a deserted place to satisfy so large a crowd?"

34 Jesus said to them, "How many loaves do you have?"

They said, "Seven, and a few small fish." 35 Then Jesus commanded the crowd to sit down on the ground. 36 He took the seven loaves and the fish, and after giving thanks, he broke the loaves and gave them to the disciples. The disciples gave them to the crowd. 37 The people all ate and were satisfied. Then they gathered up seven baskets full of the broken pieces that were left over. 38 Those who ate were four thousand men, besides women and children. 39 Then Jesus sent the crowds away and got into the boat and went into the region of Magadan.

Matthew 15 General Notes

Structure and formatting

Some translations set poetry farther to the right than the rest of the text to show that it is poetry. The ULB does this with the poetry in 15:8-9, which is from the Old Testament.

Special concepts in this chapter

The "traditions of the elders"

The "traditions of the elders" were oral laws that the Jewish religious leaders developed because they wanted to make sure that everyone obeyed the law of Moses. However, they often worked harder to obey these rules than to obey the law of Moses itself. Jesus rebuked the religious leaders for this, and they became angry as a result. (See: lawofmoses)

Jews and Gentiles

The Jews of Jesus's time thought that only Jews could please God by the way they lived. Jesus healed a Canaanite Gentile woman's daughter to show his followers that he would accept both Jews and Gentiles as his people.

Other possible translation difficulties in this chapter

Sheep

The Bible often speaks of people as if they were sheep because sheep need someone to take care of them. This is because they do not see well and they often go to where other animals can kill them easily.


Matthew 15

15:1-20

Why did the Pharisees and scribes come from Jerusalem?

[15:1]

The Pharisees and scribes came from Jerusalem to see what Jesus and the disciples were doing.

See: Disciple; Scribe; Disciple

What was the tradition of the elders?

[15:2]

The tradition of the elders were the things the Pharisees and Scribes taught. They taught these things because other teachers before them taught these things. These were not things taught in the Law of Moses.

See: Law of Moses; Scribe; Law of Moses

Why did people not eat without washing their hands?

[15:2]

In ancient Israel, the Jews did not eat unless they washed their hands in a certain way. Their hands were not dirty, they were just not washed in the way the Pharisees and scribes taught that they needed to be washed. These were certain rules made by the Jewish teachers, which Matthew called the “traditions of the elders.” They taught that Jews needed to wash their hands after they went to the marketplace. They needed to wash because they were Gentiles in the marketplace and Gentiles were unclean. These rules were not in the Law of Moses.

See: Gentile; Clean and Unclean; Gentile

What did Matthew say about honoring your father and mother?

[15:4]

In the Law of Moses, children were told to honor their father and mother. However, the Jewish teachers in Israel taught something different. They taught that children could promise something to God. If they did this, they did not need to give it to help their parents. Neither did they need to use it in a certain way or to give it to a priest. Jesus said this did not obey the Law of Moses, nor obey the command to honor your father and mother.

See: Priest (Priesthood); Priest (Priesthood)

Why would someone die for speaking evil about his father or mother?

[15:4]

In the Law of Moses, it said that whoever curses or insults his mother or father will die.

See: Exodus 21:17

See: Law of Moses; Law of Moses

What did Matthew write in verse 6?

[15:6]

Some ancient copies of the Greek New Testament contain the words “word of God.” Other ancient copies of the Greek New Testament contain the word “commandment” instead of “word of God.” Scholars do not know what Matthew wrote.

See: Differences in the Ancient Copies of the Bible

How did the Pharisees and scribes make void the word of God?

[15:6]

Jesus said that the Pharisees and Scribes made void the word of God. That is, when they made up their own rules, they emptied the Law of Moses in some way. It made people think they were following the laws God made, but they were following rules made by men.

See: Law of Moses; Scribe; Word of God; Law of Moses

What was a hypocrite?

[15:7]

A hypocrite was someone who said one thing and did something different. The Pharisees and Scribes were hypocrites when they said they lived in a way that honored God when they really lived in a way that dishonored God.

See: Scribe; Pharisees; Scribe

When did Isaiah write these things?

[15:7]

See: Isaiah 29:13

What defiled someone?

[15:11]

Jesus said that things that entered into a person did not defile them, that is, it did not make them unclean. Instead, it was the things that came out of people that defiled them. That is, it was things a person thought and did that made them unclean.

See: Clean and Unclean

What did Jesus want to teach when he told this parable?

[15:13]

Jesus told the disciples a parable. He spoke about a plant being taken out of the ground. He wanted the disciples to know that God will stop the things the Pharisees taught. He also told them that the Pharisees were like blind people. This is a metaphor. The Pharisees could not help people know how to live in a way that honored God because they themselves did not know how to live in a way that honored God.

Why did this woman shout at Jesus?

[15:22]

Matthew wrote that a Canaanite woman came shouting at Jesus. This woman was a Gentile. Despite this, she believed that Jesus was the Messiah and could heal her daughter.

See: Demon Possession (Casting Out Demons); Messiah (Christ); Son of David;Demon Possession (Casting Out Demons)

See Map: Canaan

What did Jesus teach through this woman?

[15:24, 15:25, 15:26, 15:27, 15:28]

At this time, Jesus was teaching the Jews and wanted the Jews to believe in him. When Jesus spoke about the “lost sheep of the house of Israel,” he was speaking about the Jews who needed the messiah.

The Jews believed that the Gentiles were like dogs. That is, they were less than human in some way. This is a metaphor. Jesus used this to talk about how people cared for their dogs and because of this they can know that God cares for and loves the Gentiles. When Jesus healed this woman, he wanted the disciples to know that he loved the Gentiles, even though the Jews were the people of God.

See: Disciple; Gentile; Clean and Unclean; Shepherd; People of God; Metaphor; Disciple

Who did Jesus heal?

[15:30]

Jesus healed many people near the Sea of Galilee. Many of these people were Gentiles. The crowds were amazed and they glorified God.

How many people would be full after eating one loaf of bread?

[15:34]

Bread was made into a loaf. In ancient times, a person needed at least one loaf a day to live. For a meal, seven loaves and a few fish would have only fed a few small families.

How much fish and bread were left over?

[15:37]

When Matthew said there were 7 large baskets of food left over after everyone ate, this showed that this was a great miracle.

Chapter 16

1 The Pharisees and Sadducees came and tested him by asking him to show them a sign from the sky. 2 But he answered and said to them, "When it is evening, you say, 'It will be fair weather, for the sky is red.' 3 When it is morning, you say, 'It will be foul weather, for the sky is red and overcast.' You know how to interpret the appearance of the sky, but you cannot interpret the signs of the times. 4 An evil and adulterous generation seeks for a sign, but no sign will be given to it except the sign of Jonah." Then Jesus left them and went away.

5 When the disciples reached the other side, they had forgotten to take bread. 6 Jesus said to them, "Watch out and beware of the yeast of the Pharisees and Sadducees."

7 The disciples reasoned among themselves and said, "It is because we took no bread."

8 Jesus was aware of this and said, "You of little faith, why do you reason among yourselves and say that it is because you have taken no bread? 9 Do you not understand? Do you not remember the five loaves for the five thousand, and how many baskets you gathered up? 10 Or the seven loaves for the four thousand, and how many baskets you took up? 11 How is it that you do not understand that I was not speaking to you about bread? Watch out and beware of the yeast of the Pharisees and Sadducees." 12 Then they understood that he was not telling them to beware of yeast in bread, but to beware of the teaching of the Pharisees and Sadducees.

13 Now when Jesus came to the regions near Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, "Who do people say that the Son of Man is?"

14 They said, "Some say John the Baptist; some, Elijah; and others, Jeremiah, or one of the prophets."

15 He said to them, "But who do you say that I am?"

16 Answering, Simon Peter said, "You are the Christ, the Son of the living God."

17 Jesus answered and said to him, "Blessed are you, Simon son of Jonah, for flesh and blood have not revealed this to you, but my Father who is in heaven. 18 I also say to you that you are Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church. The gates of Hades will not prevail against it. 19 I will give to you the keys of the kingdom of heaven. Whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven." 20 Then Jesus commanded the disciples not to tell anyone that he was the Christ.

21 From that time Jesus started to tell his disciples that he must go to Jerusalem, suffer many things at the hand of the elders and chief priests and scribes, be killed, and be raised back to life on the third day.

22 Then Peter took him aside and rebuked him, saying, "May this be far from you, Lord! May this never happen to you!"

23 But Jesus turned and said to Peter, "Get behind me, Satan! You are a stumbling block to me, for you do not think about the things of God, but about the things of people." 24 Then Jesus said to his disciples, "If anyone wants to follow me, he must deny himself, take up his cross, and follow me. 25 For whoever wants to save his life will lose it, and whoever loses his life for my sake will find it. 26 For what does it profit a person if he gains the whole world but forfeits his life? What can a person give in exchange for his life? 27 For the Son of Man will come in the glory of his Father with his angels. Then he will reward every person according to his deeds. 28 Truly I say to you, there are some of you standing here who will not taste death until they see the Son of Man coming in his kingdom."


Matthew 16 General Notes

Special concepts in this chapter

Yeast

Jesus spoke of the way people thought about God as if it were bread, and he spoke of what people taught about God as if it were the yeast that makes bread dough become larger and the baked bread taste good. He did not want his followers to listen to what the Pharisees and Sadducees taught. This was because if they did listen, they would not understand who God is and how he wants his people to live.

Important figures of speech in this chapter

Metaphor

Jesus told his people to obey his commands. He did this by telling them to "follow" him. It is as if he were walking on a path and they were walking after him.

Other possible translation difficulties in this chapter

Background information

Matthew continues his account from chapter 15 in verses 1-20. The account stops in verse 21 so Matthew can tell the reader that Jesus told his disciples again and again that people would kill him after he arrived in Jerusalem. Then the account continues in verses 22-27 with what happened the first time Jesus told the disciples that he would die.

Paradox

A paradox is a true statement that appears to describe something impossible. Jesus uses a paradox when he says, "Whoever wants to save his life will lose it, and whoever loses his life for my sake will find it" (Matthew 16:25).


Matthew 16

16:1-12

Why did the Pharisees and Sadducees want a sign from heaven?

[16:1]

The Pharisees wanted Jesus to give them a sign from the sky. That is, a sign from heaven. They wanted Jesus to prove to them that God gave Jesus permission to do these miracles. They thought that Satan gave Jesus permission to do these things (see: 9:34; Mark 3:22)

See: Satan (The Devil); Sadducees; Sign; Heaven; Miracle; Satan (The Devil)

Why did Jesus speak about the weather?

[16:2]

In ancient Israel, the Pharisees and Sadducees predicted the weather. It is very difficult to know what will happen with the weather. Jesus said they were able to see certain things and know what the weather would do. However, they saw the things Jesus did, but could not understand the things that were happening around them.

See: Sadducees; Sadducees

What were the signs of the times?

[16:3]

Jesus spoke about the “signs of the times.” He was speaking about certain things that happened so that people would know that Jesus is the messiah.

See: Messiah (Christ); Messiah (Christ)

What was an evil and adulterous generation?

[16:4]

When Jesus spoke about an “adulterous generation,” he used a metaphor. Some scholars think Jesus was speaking directly to the Scribes and Pharisees, and told them they were an “adulterous generation”. That is, the Scribes and Pharisees did not truly obey and follow God completely.

See: Pharisees; Adultery; Generation; Scribe; Pharisees

What was the sign of Jonah?

[16:4]

Jonah was a prophet in ancient Israel (see: Jonah 1-4). He was swallowed by a fish and was in the fish for three days. After three days, he was released. Something like this was going to happen to Jesus. He would die and after three days, he would come back to life.

See: Prophet ; Son of Man; Sign; Prophet

Why did Jesus talk about yeast?

[16:6]

Jesus used the metaphor of yeast. He did this to talk about the Pharisees teaching evil things. This would make other people want to do evil things.

See: Pharisees; Metaphor; Pharisees

Why did the disciples reason with each other?

[16:7]

The disciples did not understand what Jesus meant when he talked about the yeast. They thought he was concerned because they did not bring bread with them.

See: Yeast (Leaven)

What was little faith?

[16:8]

Jesus said that certain people had little faith. That is, these people did not trust in Jesus very much.

See: Faith (Believe in)

Why did Jesus ask the disciples so many questions?

[16:8, 16:9, 16:10, 16:11]

Jesus asked many different questions because they did not understand what Jesus was saying about who he is and why he did these things. They knew Jesus had already fed more than 5000 people through a miracle, but they forgot he could do this and worried that the people would not eat. Therefore, Jesus rebuked them. That is, he spoke to them in a way that they would know they did something wrong.

16:13-20

Where was Caesarea Philippi?

[16:13]

See Map: Caesarea Philippi

Who is the Son of Man?

[16:13]

Many years before Jesus lived, Daniel prophesied about the “son of man” (see: Daniel 7:13). Jesus asked who people thought fulfilled this prophecy. People did not agree about who fulfilled Daniel’s prophecy. Jesus is the Son of man.

See: Fulfill (Fulfillment); Prophecy (Prophesy) ; Fulfill (Fulfillment)

Who did Peter believe that Jesus was?

[16:16]

See: Son of God, Son of God

How did Peter know that Jesus was the Messiah and the Son of God?

[16:17]

Peter knew that Jesus was the messiah and the Son of God because God helped him to know this. He needed God to help him know this.

See: Reveal (Revelation), Son of God; Reveal (Revelation)

On what rock will Jesus build his church?

[16:18]

Some scholars think when Jesus spoke about the rock upon which he would build his church, he used a metaphor. They think he was speaking about what Peter said. That is, that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of the Living God. A “rock” is solid and a large rock cannot be changed. Jesus is the messiah and this can never be changed. Fewer scholars think Jesus was speaking about making his church with the things done by Peter and the apostles.

See: Ephesians 2:20

See: Apostle; Messiah (Christ); Son of God; Apostle

What are the gates of hades?

[16:18]

Jesus spoke about the gates of Hades. Hades is another name for hell. Some scholars think Jesus wanted to say that Satan is not able to stop Jesus from doing the things Jesus wanted to do. Other scholars think this was a metaphor. People who believe in Jesus will not live forever in hell after they die.

See: Metaphor; Satan (The Devil); Metaphor

What are the keys to the kingdom of heaven?

[16:19]

Jesus said that he will give Peter the keys to the kingdom of heaven. He gave Peter permission to do something. Scholars think Jesus gave Peter and the other apostles permission to teach people how to live in a way that honored God. They would help people understand Jesus and the Law of Moses.

See: Law of Moses; Apostle; Law of Moses

What did it mean for Peter to bind and loose things on earth?

[16:19]

Jesus gave Peter permission to bind and loose certain things on the earth. Some scholars think Jesus gave Peter, and the apostles, permission to rule over Christians. That is, they could allow Christians to do some things and they could make Christians stop doing other things. Some scholars think Peter will be able to do this when Jesus rules on the earth. Other scholars think God was going to teach people, through the apostles, how to live in a way that honored God after Jesus died. He would do this by revealing himself to the apostles and prophets.

See: Prophet; Reveal (Revelation); Apostle; Prophet

Why did Jesus not want the disciples to tell people that he is the messiah?

[16:20]

See: Messiah (Christ); Disciple; Messiah (Christ)

16:21-28

Who were the elders, chief priests, and scribes?

[16:21]

See: Scribe; Scribe

How would Jesus raised back to life on the third day?

[16:21]

When Jesus said that he would be raised back to life after three days, he was talking about his resurrection.

Why did Peter rebuke Jesus?

[16:23]

Peter rebuked Jesus, that is. Peter said that Jesus must not be speaking correctly. Peter thought that the messiah would not suffer and die in the way Jesus said. However, Jesus rebuked Peter. He said Peter did something wrong. The things he said were the things that Satan wanted Peter to say. He wanted the messiah to be the way he wanted the messiah to be, and not to do the things God wanted the messiah to do.

See: Messiah (Christ); Messiah (Christ)

How was Peter a stumbling block to Jesus?

[16:23]

Jesus said that Peter was a stumbling block. This was a metaphor. Even though he did not know it, Peter was tempting Jesus. He was trying to get Jesus to do what Satan wanted, not what God wanted.

See: Metaphor; Tempt (Temptation); Metaphor

How could a person “take up his cross”?

[16:24]

Jesus died on a cross. He obeyed God even though he suffered for obeying God. He wanted people to do the same thing. He wanted them to obey God, even if they suffered because they obeyed God.

See: Cross

How does someone save their life?

[16:25]

Jesus talked about “life” in two ways in this passage. He spoke about the life a person has before they die and the life they have after they die. He wanted people to obey God before they die if they wanted to live with God in heaven forever. Those who die on Earth because they obeyed God will live with God in heaven after they die.

See: Save (Salvation, Saved from Sins); Save (Salvation, Saved from Sins)

How will the Son of Man come to the earth?

[16:27]

Jesus said that the Son of Man will come to the earth with great glory (see: Daniel 7:13-14).

See: Glory (Glorify); Glory (Glorify)

[16:27]

See: Reward

How will people not die before they see the Son of man coming in his kingdom?

[16:28]

Jesus said that some of the people with him will not die before they see the Son of man coming in his kingdom. Some scholars think Jesus was speaking about revealing himself to the disciples after his resurrection. Other scholars think Matthew will write about this in Matthew 17.

Chapter 17

1 Six days later Jesus took with him Peter, James, and John his brother, and brought them up a high mountain by themselves. 2 He was transfigured before them. His face shone like the sun, and his garments became as brilliant as the light. 3 Behold, there appeared to them Moses and Elijah talking with him. 4 Peter answered and said to Jesus, "Lord, it is good for us to be here. If you desire, I will make here three shelters—one for you, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah."

5 While he was still speaking, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them, and behold, there was a voice out of the cloud, saying, "This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased. Listen to him."

6 When the disciples heard it, they fell facedown and were very afraid. 7 Then Jesus came and touched them and said, "Get up and do not be afraid." 8 Then they looked up but saw no one except Jesus only.

9 As they were coming down the mountain, Jesus commanded them, saying, "Report this vision to no one until the Son of Man has risen from the dead."

10 His disciples asked him, saying, "Why then do the scribes say that Elijah must come first?"

11 Jesus answered and said, "Elijah will indeed come and restore all things. 12 But I tell you, Elijah has already come, but they did not recognize him. Instead, they did whatever they wanted to him. In the same way, the Son of Man will also suffer at their hands." 13 Then the disciples understood that he was speaking to them about John the Baptist.

14 When they had come to the crowd, a man came to him, knelt before him, and said, 15 "Lord, have mercy on my son, for he is epileptic and suffers severely. For he often falls into the fire or the water. 16 I brought him to your disciples, but they could not cure him."

17 Jesus answered and said, "Unbelieving and perverse generation, how long will I have to stay with you? How long must I bear with you? Bring him here to me." 18 Jesus rebuked the demon, and it came out of him, and the boy was healed from that hour.

19 Then the disciples came to Jesus privately and said, "Why could we not cast it out?"

20 Jesus said to them, "Because of your small faith. For I truly say to you, if you have faith even as small as a grain of mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, 'Move from here to there,' and it will move, and nothing will be impossible for you." 21[1]

22 While they stayed in Galilee, Jesus said to his disciples, "The Son of Man will be given over into the hands of people, 23 and they will kill him, and the third day he will be raised up." The disciples were deeply grieved.

24 When they had come to Capernaum, the men who collected the two-drachma tax came to Peter and said, "Does not your teacher pay the two-drachma tax?"

25 He said, "Yes."

When Peter came into the house, Jesus spoke to him first and said, "What do you think, Simon? From whom do the kings of the earth collect tolls or taxes? From their sons or from others?"

26 "From others," Peter answered.

"Then the sons are free," Jesus said. 27 But so that we do not cause the tax collectors to stumble, go to the sea, throw in a hook, and draw in the fish that comes up first. When you have opened its mouth, you will find a shekel. Take it and give it to the tax collectors for me and you."


Footnotes


17:21 [1]The best ancient copies do not have v. 21,

Matthew 17 General Notes

Special concepts in this chapter

Elijah

The Old Testament prophet Malachi lived many years before Jesus was born. Malachi had said that before the Messiah came a prophet named Elijah would return. Jesus explained that Malachi had been talking about John the Baptist. Jesus said this because John the Baptist had done what Malachi had said that Elijah would do. (See: prophet and christ)

"transfigured"

Scripture often speaks of God's glory as a great, brilliant light. When people see this light, they are afraid. Matthew says in this chapter that Jesus's body shone with this glorious light so that his followers could see that Jesus truly was God's Son. At the same time, God told them that Jesus was his Son. (See: glory and fear)


Matthew 17

17:1-13

How was Jesus transfigured?

[17:2]

When Matthew said that Jesus was transfigured, he wanted to say that Jesus was changed in some way. The disciples did not see Jesus’ body as it had been. They saw him as he will be when he returns to the earth in glory.

See: Glory (Glorify); Jesus' Return to Earth; Glory (Glorify)

Why did Peter, James, and John see Elijah and Moses?

[17:3]

Peter, James, and John saw Elijah and Moses. Elijah and Moses were in heaven. Scholars think this was a symbol. Elijah represented the prophets, and Moses represented the Law of Moses. They symbolized that both the Law and the prophets prophesied about Jesus the messiah.

See: Prophecy (Prophesy); Messiah (Christ); Old Testament (Law and Prophets); Law of Moses; Prophecy (Prophesy)

Why did Peter want to make three shelters?

[17:4]

Peter wanted to make three shelters. He wanted to make one for Jesus, one for Elijah, and one for Moses. He did not realize that Jesus was greater than Elijah and Moses. Scholars disagree about why he wanted to do this.

  1. Some scholars think Peter wanted to build three tents of meeting. This is because he wanted to build a place where God could talk to men once again. He did not know that God was already talking to people through Jesus. They did not need to meet in a tent to learn what God said to them.
  2. Some scholars think Peter wanted to build three shelters (see: Leviticus 23). Perhaps he thought this was for the Feast of Shelters when the messiah came to reign over the world (see: Zechariah 14:16)

See: Messiah (Christ); Festival of Shelters; Messiah (Christ)

Who spoke from the cloud?

[17:5]

God the Father was the one who was speaking from the cloud. In the Bible, heaven is often spoken about as if it is in the clouds.

See: Heaven; Heaven

Why were the disciples afraid?

[17:6]

The disciples were afraid because they thought the time was coming for God to judge the world. Perhaps the disciples was partly afraid, but partly worshipping God.

See: Day of Judgment; Judge (Judgment); Day of Judgment

Why did Jesus tell them not to say anything?

[17:9]

See: Messianic Secret

What did Jesus mean when he said, “until the Son of Man has risen from the dead”?

[17:9]

Jesus spoke about the Son of Man rising from the dead. He was speaking about himself. He would be resurrected. At this time, the disciples did not understand that Jesus would be resurrected. Certain Jewish teachers even taught that no one would rise from the dead. This is why they discussed what Jesus said among themselves.

See: Disciple; Resurrect (Resurrection) ; Disciple

What did the Scribes teach about Elijah?

[17:10]

The Scribes taught that Elijah would return to the earth before the messiah came. He would tell Israel to repent and to be ready for the messiah. It is not known whether they taught that Elijah would come back to the earth or that there would be a prophet who was like Elijah.

See: Prophet; Messiah (Christ); Repent (Repentance); Prophet

Who was Jesus talking about when he said that Elijah has come?

[17:12, 17:13]

Jesus told them that the Scribes were right about Elijah. A prophet like Elijah did help Israel to be ready for the messiah and he wanted them to repent of the sins. When Jesus spoke about this Elijah, he was speaking about John the Baptist.

See: Malachi 3:1

See: Sin; Prophet; Messiah (Christ); Repent (Repentance); Sin

17:14-23

Why did this man kneel before Jesus?

[17:14]

A man knelt before Jesus. He did this to honor Jesus.

What was wrong with this man’s son?

[17:15]

This man had a son who was epileptic. The epilepsy was because he had a demon in him that caused him to shake violently. It also caused his son to fall into water and fire.

See: Demon Possession (Casting Out Demons); Demon Possession (Casting Out Demons)

Why could the disciples not cast out this demon?

[17:16]

Jesus said the disciples could not cast out this demon because they did not have enough faith. Scholars think the disciples had doubts about what Jesus had commanded they do earlier (see: 10:8).

See: Faith (Believe in); Demon; Demon Possession (Casting Out Demons); Faith (Believe in)

Why did Jesus rebuke the “unbelieving and corrupt generation”?

[17:17]

Jesus rebuked the “unbelieving and corrupt generation.” That is, he said that many people in Israel were evil for rejecting him. He was not speaking about everyone in Israel. Some people believed in him. Perhaps Jesus said this because he wanted the disciples to know that they acted in the same way the non-Christians acted.

See: Generation; Generation

Why did Jesus say, “nothing will be impossible for you”?

[17:20]

When Jesus said, “nothing will be impossible for you,” he was not saying that people who believe in him can do anything. Instead, he was saying that when someone obeys God, they can do things they did not think they could do. God can make anything happen and he can use people to make anything happen that he wants to happen.

Jesus said that they did not trust him very much. He said their faith was like a mustard seed. This was a metaphor. The mustard seed was very small seed. It was about 1 millimeter in size. A mustard tree was very large. Jesus wanted to say that if they trusted him, he would help them to do very great things.

See: Faith (Believe in); Faith (Believe in)

Where was Galilee?

[17:22]

See map: Galilee

Who is the Son of Man?

[17:22]

See: Son of Man

How will Jesus be raised up?

[17:23]

See: Resurrect (Resurrection)

17:24-27

What was the half-shekel tax?

[17:24]

Jesus spoke about a half-shekel tax. This was a tax the Jews paid to serve the temple in Jerusalem. A half-shekel was the amount of money a typical person earned in one day. Jews, from the age of twenty-one, were required to pay this tax once every year.

See: Temple; Temple

Why did Jesus talk about the tax that was paid to the temple?

[17:25]

Jesus spoke about the temple to his disciples. He said that the sons of kings do not pay taxes to the kings. Therefore, he did not need to pay taxes to the temple because he is the Son of God. However, Jesus did not want the people collecting the taxes to reject him because they did not understand that he is the Son of God. He got the money from a fish. This was a miracle.

See: Temple; Son of God; Miracle; Temple

How much was the shekel?

[17:27]

The shekel was the same amount of money as four drachma. Because of this, Jesus had enough money to pay the tax for him and Peter.

Chapter 18

1 At that time the disciples came to Jesus and said, "Who is greatest in the kingdom of heaven?"

2 Jesus called to himself a little child, set him among them, 3 and said, "Truly I say to you, unless you turn and become like little children, you will in no way enter the kingdom of heaven. 4 Therefore, whoever humbles himself like this little child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven. 5 Whoever welcomes a little child like this in my name receives me. 6 But whoever causes one of these little ones who believes in me to stumble, it would be better for him that a large millstone should be hung about his neck, and that he should be sunk into the depths of the sea.

7 "Woe to the world because of stumbling blocks! For it is necessary that those stumbling blocks come, but woe to the person through whom those stumbling blocks come! 8 If your hand or your foot causes you to stumble, cut it off and throw it away from you. It is better for you to enter into life maimed or lame than to be thrown into the eternal fire having two hands or two feet. 9 If your eye causes you to stumble, pluck it out and throw it away from you. It is better for you to enter into life with one eye than to be thrown into the fiery hell having both eyes. 10 See that you do not despise any of these little ones. For I say to you that in heaven their angels always look on the face of my Father who is in heaven. 11[1]12 What do you think? If anyone has a hundred sheep, and one of them goes astray, does he not leave the ninety-nine on the hillside and go off seeking the one that went astray? 13 If he finds it, truly I say to you, he rejoices over it more than over the ninety-nine that did not go astray. 14 In the same way, it is not the will of your Father in heaven that one of these little ones should perish.

15 "If your brother sins against you, go and rebuke him, between you and him alone. If he listens to you, you will have gained your brother. 16 But if he does not listen to you, take one or two others along with you so that by the mouth of two or three witnesses every word might be confirmed. 17 And if he refuses to listen to them, tell the matter to the church. If he also refuses to listen to the church, let him be to you as a pagan and a tax collector. 18 I tell you truly, whatever things you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven. 19 Again I tell you truly, if two of you agree on earth about anything they ask, it will be done for them by my Father who is in heaven. 20 For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there I am in their midst."

21 Then Peter came and said to Jesus, "Lord, how often will my brother sin against me and I forgive him? Until seven times?"

22 Jesus said to him, "I do not tell you seven times, but until seventy times seven. 23 Therefore the kingdom of heaven is similar to a certain king who wanted to settle accounts with his servants. 24 As he began the settling, one servant was brought to him who owed him ten thousand talents. 25 But since he did not have the means to repay, his master commanded him to be sold, together with his wife and children and everything that he had, and payment to be made. 26 So the servant fell down, bowed down before him, and said, 'Master, have patience with me, and I will pay you everything.' 27 So the master of that servant, since he was moved with compassion, released him and forgave him the debt. 28 But that servant went out and found one of his fellow servants, who owed him one hundred denarii. He took hold of him, began to choke him, and said, 'Pay me what you owe.'

29 "But his fellow servant fell down and pleaded with him, saying, 'Have patience with me, and I will repay you.' 30 But the first servant refused. Instead, he went and threw him into prison until he should pay him what he owed. 31 When his fellow servants saw what had happened, they were deeply grieved. They came and told their master everything that had happened.

32 "Then that servant's master called him and said to him, 'You wicked servant, I forgave you all that debt because you pleaded with me. 33 Should you not have had mercy on your fellow servant, even as I had mercy on you?' 34 His master was angry and handed him over to the torturers until he would pay all that was owed. 35 So also my heavenly Father will do to you if you do not forgive your brother from your heart."


Footnotes


18:11 [1]The best ancient Greek copies do not have the sentence that some translations include,

Matthew 18 General Notes

Special concepts in this chapter

What should Jesus's followers do when other followers sin against them?

Jesus taught that his followers must treat each other well and not be angry with each other. They should forgive anyone who is sorry for his sin, even if he has committed the same sin before. If he is not sorry for his sin, Jesus's followers should speak with him alone or in a small group. If he is still not sorry after that, then Jesus's followers can treat him as guilty. (See: repent and sin)


Matthew 18

18:1-14

Why did Matthew write about who was the greatest in the kingdom of God?

[18:1]

Some scholars think Matthew wrote about who was the greatest in the kingdom of God because the disciples were thinking about who would have the most power. However, Jesus taught that greatness was about being humble and being a servant.

See: Mark 9:33-37

See: Disciple; Disciple

Why did Jesus talk about little children?

[18:3]

Jesus helped the disciples to understand what he said by talking about a child. Scholars think Jesus was speaking about how a child is humble and needed a parent to live. They think this was also a metaphor. In the same way, the disciples needed to be humble, knowing they depended on God for everything.

See: Disciple; Disciple

What was a stumbling block?

[18:6]

See: Walk; Walk

What was a woe?

[18:7]

See: Woe

Did Jesus want people to cut off their hands and feet?

[18:8]

Jesus said that people should cut off their hands or feet if it caused other people to sin. This was a metaphor. Some scholars think that Jesus was saying it was better to go to heaven without enjoying the sinning on earth, than to go on sinning in this world and then go to hell.

See: Sin; Hell; Sin

What is the eternal fire?

[18:8]

Jesus spoke about an eternal fire. He was speaking about hell, where people are punished with fire.

See: Fire; Punish (Punishment); Fire

Why did Jesus speak about angels?

[18:10]

In ancient Israel, the Jews taught that only certain angels were close to God and could see God. However, Jesus said that all the angels are always looking at God. He wanted to tell them that God cared very much for these “little children.”

See: Angel

What did Matthew write in verse 11?

[18:11]

Some of the ancient copies of the Greek New Testament contain the words, “for the Son of Man came to save that which was lost.” Older and more ancient copies of the Greek New Testament do not contain these words. Therefore, scholars think Matthew did not write these words.

See: Differences in the Ancient Copies of the Bible

What did Jesus teach about when he told people about the sheep?

[18:12]

Jesus told them a parable about sheep. Just as a shepherd rejoices when he finds the one lost sheep, so God rejoices when one sinner repents. Scholars think Jesus told this parable to teach that God’s will is that no one would perish, that is, that no one would reject God.

See: Will of God; Shepherd; Heaven; Repent (Repentance); Will of God

18:15-20

Who are the brothers about which Jesus spoke?

[18:15]

When Jesus spoke about brothers, he was speaking about Christians.

See: Family of God

What was meant by the words, “gained your brother”?

[18:15]

Jesus said that a Christian who helps another Christian not to sin has gained his brother. That is, his brother has been restored to him in friendship and is at peace with him and with God.

See: Family of God; Family of God

How was “every word confirmed”?

[18:16]

Sometimes a Chrstian who sins does not listen to another Christian who is trying to get him to stop sinning. Jesus said when this happens to take one or two other Chrsitians to listen to the words of the Christian who sinned. This is so that every word will be confirmed. That is, there would be evidence to bring about forgiveness and reconciliation between these Christians.

See: Sin

What did it mean to treat a person “as a Gentile and a tax collector” if they did not repent of their sin?

[18:17]

When a Christian sinned and did not listen to correction from other Christians, Jesus said to treat them the same way they treated a tax collector or a Gentile. That is, they were to be separated from other Christians in some way. Jesus wanted the Christians to treat the sinning Christian in the same way they treat non-Christians who sin. That is, they are to tell them that they need to repent.

See: Repent (Repentance); Sin; Repent (Repentance)

How did the disciples bind and loose things on the earth?

[18:18]

Jesus gave the disciples permission to bind and loose certain things on the earth. Some scholars think Jesus gave the apostles permission to rule other Christians. That is, they could say that doing certain things were good and doing other things is evil. Some scholars think the apostles will be able to do this when Jesus rules on the earth. Other scholars think God was going to teach people, through the apostles, how to live in a way that honored God after Jesus died. He would do this by revealing himself to the apostles and prophets.

See: Prophet; Reveal (Revelation); Apostle; Prophet

What did Jesus teach the disciples about being in their midst?

[18:20]

Jesus taught the disciples about prayer. Jesus wanted his disciples to know that when two or three of them are gathered together to worship him, he would help them in some way. He also wanted them to know that God would still be with them after Jesus died.

See: Pray (Prayer); Pray (Prayer)

18:21-35

Why did Peter ask Jesus about forgiving other Christians seven times?

[18:21]

Peter asked Jesus how many times he should forgive another Christian. The Jews taught that someone needed to forgive 3 times. Scholars think Peter thought to forgive someone seven times would be the most anyone could forgive.

See: Forgive (Forgiveness, Pardon); Forgive (Forgiveness, Pardon)

How many is seventy times seven?

[18:22]

Seventy times seven is 490.

Why did Jesus tell Peter a parable about the king’s servants?

[18:23]

Jesus told Peter a parable about a certain king's servants. He wanted Peter to know about the kingdom of heaven. He wanted the disciples to remember that Jesus forgave them. They could never have worked hard enough to earn God’s favor and be at peace with God. Jesus forgave them freely. When they do not forgive another Christian freely, Jesus said they act in the same way this servant acted. They forgot they were forgiven more by God than this person needed to be forgiven by them. He treated this man worse than God treated him. Because of this, God will punish Christians when they do not forgive other Christians.

See: Punish (Punishment); Kingdom of God; Serve; Atone (Atonement); Punish (Punishment)

How much money is 10,000 talents?

[18:24]

A talent was a very large amount of money. It would have normally taken someone about 20 years to earn one talent. This was an amount of money that no one would ever be able to pay back.

How much money is a denarii?

[18:28]

At this time, a person typically earned a denarii every day they worked.

See: Denarius

Chapter 19

1 It came about that when Jesus had finished these words, he departed from Galilee and came to the region of Judea that is beyond the Jordan River. 2 Great crowds followed him, and he healed them there.

3 Pharisees came to him, testing him, saying to him, "Is it lawful for a man to divorce his wife for any cause?"

4 Jesus answered and said, "Have you not read that he who made them from the beginning made them male and female? 5 He who made them also said, 'For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and join to his wife, and the two will become one flesh.' 6 So they are no longer two, but one flesh. Therefore what God has joined together, let no one tear apart."

7 They said to him, "Why then did Moses command us to give a certificate of divorce and then to send her away?"

8 He said to them, "For your hardness of heart, Moses allowed you to divorce your wives, but from the beginning it was not that way. 9 I say to you, whoever divorces his wife, except for sexual immorality, and marries another, commits adultery." [1]

10 The disciples said to Jesus, "If that is the case of a man with his wife, it is not good to marry."

11 But Jesus said to them, "Not everyone can accept this saying, but only those to whom it is given. 12 For there are eunuchs who were born that way from their mother's womb, and there are eunuchs who were made eunuchs by men, and there are eunuchs who made themselves eunuchs for the sake of the kingdom of heaven. He who is able to accept this teaching, let him accept it."

13 Then some little children were brought to him so that he would lay his hands on them and pray, but the disciples rebuked them. 14 But Jesus said, "Permit the little children, and do not forbid them to come to me, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such ones." 15 He placed his hands on the children, and then he went away from there.

16 Behold, a man came to Jesus and said, "Teacher, what good thing must I do that I may have eternal life?"

17 Jesus said to him, "Why do you ask me about what is good? Only one is good, but if you want to enter into life, keep the commandments."

18 The man said to him, "Which commandments?"

Jesus said, "Do not murder, do not commit adultery, do not steal, do not bear false witness, 19 honor your father and your mother, and love your neighbor as yourself."

20 The young man said to him, "All these things I have obeyed. What do I still need?"

21 Jesus said to him, "If you wish to be perfect, go, sell your possessions, and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow me." 22 But when the young man heard what Jesus said, he went away sorrowful, for he had many possessions.

23 Jesus said to his disciples, "Truly I say to you, it is hard for a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven. 24 Again I say to you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God."

25 When the disciples heard it, they were very astonished and said, "Who then can be saved?"

26 Jesus looked at them and said, "With people this is impossible, but with God all things are possible."

27 Then Peter answered and said to him, "See, we have left everything and followed you. What then will we have?"

28 Jesus said to them, "Truly I say to you, in the new age when the Son of Man sits on his glorious throne, you who have followed me will also sit upon twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel. 29 Every one who has left houses, brothers, sisters, father, mother, children, or land for my name's sake will receive one hundred times as much and will inherit eternal life. 30 But many who are first will be last, and the last will be first.

Matthew 19 General Notes

Special concepts in this chapter

Divorce

Jesus taught about divorce because the Pharisees wanted people to think Jesus's teachings about divorce were wrong (Matthew 19:3-12). Jesus talked about what God had first said about marriage when he created it.

Important figures of speech in this chapter

Metonymy

Jesus often says the word "heaven" when he wants his hearers to think of God, who lives in heaven (Matthew 19:12).


Matthew 19

19:1-12

Where were Galilee and Judea?

[19:1]

See Map: Galilee; Judea

Where was the area beyond the Jordan River?

[19:1]

Jesus left Capernaum to go to Judea. This was a place past the Jordan River. Judea was on the west side of the Jordan River. This was an area where Jews lived. Matthew wrote about the area east of the Jordan river when he wrote the words, beyond the Jordan River. This was a place where Gentiles lived.

See: Gentile

See Map: Capernaum; Jordan River; Judea

How did the Pharisees test Jesus?

[19:3]

Matthew wrote that the Pharisees tested Jesus. That is, they wanted to get him to say something that made people angry. It would make certain people angry if Jesus said people could not get divorced. It would make certain other people angry if Jesus said that people could get divorced.

See: Divorce; Divorce

What did Moses teach about divorce?

[19:7, 19:8]

Moses taught about divorce in the Law of Moses. The Pharisees thought that Moses said a man could divorce his wife. However, they did not think that a woman could divorce her husband. Some Pharisees taught that a man could only divorce his wife if she committed adultery or did evil things. Other Pharisees taught that any man could divorce his wife if he wanted to, even if she did not do anything wrong.

When a man wrote his wife a “certificate of divorce,” he sent her away with a certificate saying that she no longer belonged to the man as his wife. This would help her to marry another man.

See: Deuteronomy 24:1-4

See: Adultery; Pharisees; Law of Moses; Adultery

What did Jesus teach about divorce?

[19:9]

Jesus told the Pharisees what the Law of Moses actually said. Moses did not want people to get divorced because God did not want people to get divorced. Instead, Moses knew that some people had hard hearts. That is, they did not want to listen to God’s will about divorce. Moses allowed people to be divorced because of this. However, a certificate of divorce must be written.

Jesus told them about the marriage between Adam and Eve (see: Genesis 1:27; 2:24). A husband and wife became one flesh. That is, it was never God’s desire or intention for a married couple to divorce. Jesus only allowed for divorce when there was sexual immorality.

See: Will of God; Pharisees; Law of Moses; Sin; Will of God

What was sexual immorality?

[19:9]

See: Sexual Immorality

Why did the disciples say to Jesus, “it is not good to marry”?

[19:10]

Jesus said that it was not good to marry. Some scholars think the disciples were asking Jesus about not marrying again after being divorced. Other scholars think the disciples wanted to know from Jesus if it was good to marry at all, because they served Jesus.

See: Disciple

What did Jesus mean when he said, “not everyone can accept this teaching”?

[19:11]

Jesus said, “not everyone can accept this teaching.” Some scholars think Jesus was talking about his teaching in verses four through nine. Other scholars think he wanted to say that only certain people will understand the things he taught in this verse.

What was a eunuch?

[19:12]

A eunuch was a man who was incapable of producing children. However, Jesus spoke about different types of eunuchs. Some men are born with a damaged penis and they are not able to have sex. Other men were made eunuchs. In ancient times, a king may have cut off a man’s penis if he put this man in charge of caring for his many wives. Other people made themselves eunuchs for the sake of the kingdom of God. This was a metaphor. They chose not to marry so they could better serve Jesus.

See: Kingdom of God; Kingdom of God

19:13-15

Why did people want their children to have Jesus touch them?

[19:13]

The people brought their children to have Jesus touch them. They thought that if they did this, Jesus would bless the children. He did this by putting his hands on them and saying a blessing.

See: Bless (Blessing)

Why did the disciples rebuke the people for bringing their children to have Jesus touch them?

[19:13]

The disciples rebuked the people for bringing their children to have Jesus touch them. Scholars think the disciples thought Jesus needed to be doing other things. Perhaps they thought that Jesus should be teaching adults instead.

See: Disciple

What did Jesus teach the disciples about the kingdom of God?

[19:14]

Jesus told the disciples they were wrong for rebuking these people. Jesus wanted the little children to come to him. This was because many adults rejected Jesus. They thought they knew more about the Messiah than they did. However, the children were willing to learn and did not reject Jesus.

After this, Jesus taught the disciples about the kingdom of God. If people wanted to have the kingdom of God, they needed to believe in Jesus the same way children believed in Jesus. Children often trusted someone completely, but adults often only trusted someone who had earned it.

See: Kingdom of God; Messiah (Christ); Kingdom of God

19:16-30

What was having eternal life?

[19:16]

See: Eternal Life

How was someone good?

[19:17]

When Jesus spoke about someone who was good, he was speaking about someone who is always does the right thing. Only God is good in this way. Scholars think Jesus said that he is God. The man did not understand what it meant to be “good” and to obey God perfectly.

See: Jesus is God

What were these commandments about which Jesus spoke?

[19:17]

Jesus talked about some of the ten commandments in the Law of Moses.

See: Exodus 20; Deuteronomy 5

See: Law of Moses; Law of Moses

What was adultery?

[19:18]

See: Adultery

What was bearing false witness?

[19:18]

Someone who bore false witness lied about someone. They said someone did something they did not do or did not do something that they did. It also meant to give a false report in a court of law.

See: Witness (Martyr); Witness (Martyr)

Why did Jesus want this man to sell everything he had?

[19:21]

Jesus knew that the man loved money more than anything else. He did not truly trust in God or that Jesus was the messiah. He trusted in the things he had. Because of this, Jesus wanted him to sell all he had in order to follow him.

All people do not need to sell everything they have to be Christians. This was not a command for all people in order for them to follow Jesus. Jesus knew the man’s money kept him from completely trusting in him.

See: Messiah (Christ)

What was treasure in heaven?

[19:21]

Jesus spoke about some rewards people will get after they die when he spoke about treasure in heaven.

See: Heaven; Heaven

Why was it hard for the rich to enter the kingdom of God?

[19:23]

Some scholars think it was hard for the rich to enter the kingdom of God because the people who were rich held onto their money and valuable things too tightly. That is, they trusted in their possession more than they trusted God. Jesus used the metaphor of a camel. A camel would never fit through the eye of a needle, which is less than one millimeter. However, Jesus wanted the disciples to know that though things might seem impossible to men, all things are possible for God.

See: Metaphor; Kingdom of God; Metaphor

Advice to translators: Someone who has a lot of money is considered rich. They have riches.

What did Jesus want to teach the disciples?

[19:26]

Jesus wanted to teach his disciples that there was only one way to have peace with God and to enter into his kingdom. People need to trust in Jesus. People should not trust in anything or anyone else.

See: Kingdom of God; Kingdom of God

When will the Son of Man sit on his glorious throne?

[19:28]

Jesus spoke about a time when the Son of Man will sit on his glorious throne. Jesus was speaking about himself ruling his kingdom.

See: Throne; Glory (Glorify); Kingdom of God; Throne

How will the disciples judge Israel?

[19:28]

Jesus said that the disciples will sit on twelve thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel. They will judge Israel in some way. However, he did not say when or how they would do this.

See: Judge (Judgment); Tribes of Israel; Judge (Judgment)

How will people be given “a hundred times” as much as they left behind?

[19:29]

Some scholars think Jesus spoke about the many homes that would be opened for the servants of God. The brothers and sisters were those who believed in Jesus and became brothers and sisters in Christ. Other scholars think Jesus spoke about spiritual blessings that replaced the homes and families that were left behind. The blessings might be considered “a hundred times” better than what they left behind.

1 "For the kingdom of heaven is like a landowner who went out early in the morning to hire laborers for his vineyard. 2 After he had agreed with the laborers for one denarius a day, he sent them into his vineyard. 3 He went out again about the third hour and saw other laborers standing idle in the marketplace. 4 To them he said, 'You also, go into the vineyard, and I will give you what is right.' So they went to work. 5 Again he went out about the sixth hour and again the ninth hour, and did the same. 6 Once more about the eleventh hour he went out and found others standing idle. He said to them, 'Why do you stand here idle all the day long?'

7 "They said to him, 'Because no one has hired us.'

"He said to them, 'You also go into the vineyard.' 8 When evening came, the owner of the vineyard said to his manager, 'Call the laborers and pay them their wages, beginning from the last to the first.'

9 "When the laborers who had been hired at the eleventh hour came, each of them received a denarius. 10 When the first laborers came, they thought that they would receive more, but they also received one denarius each. 11 When they received their wages, they complained about the landowner. 12 They said, 'These last laborers have spent only one hour in work, but you have made them equal to us, we who have borne the burden of the day and the scorching heat.'

13 "But the owner answered and said to one of them, 'Friend, I do you no wrong. Did you not agree with me for one denarius? 14 Take what belongs to you and go your way. I choose to give to these last hired laborers just the same as to you. 15 Is it not lawful for me to do as I want with what belongs to me? Or are you envious because I am good?' 16 So the last will be first, and the first last." [1]

17 As Jesus was going up to Jerusalem, he took the twelve disciples aside, and on the way he said to them, 18 "See, we are going up to Jerusalem, and the Son of Man will be given over to the chief priests and scribes. They will condemn him to death 19 and will deliver him to the Gentiles for them to mock, to flog, and to crucify him. But on the third day he will be raised up."

20 Then the mother of the sons of Zebedee came to Jesus with her sons. She bowed down before him and asked for something from him.

21 Jesus said to her, "What do you wish?"

She said to him, "Command that these my two sons may sit, one at your right hand and one at your left hand, in your kingdom."

22 But Jesus answered and said, "You do not know what you are asking. Are you able to drink the cup that I am about to drink?"

They said to him, "We are able."

23 He said to them, "My cup you will indeed drink. But to sit at my right hand and at my left hand is not mine to give, but it is for those for whom it has been prepared by my Father." 24 When the other ten disciples heard this, they were very angry with the two brothers. 25 But Jesus called them to himself and said, "You know that the rulers of the Gentiles dominate them, and their important men exercise authority over them. 26 But it must not be this way among you. Instead, whoever wishes to become great among you must be your servant, 27 and whoever wishes to be first among you must be your servant, 28 just as the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many."

29 As they went out from Jericho, a great crowd followed him. 30 There were two blind men sitting by the road. When they heard that Jesus was passing by, they shouted, "Lord, Son of David, have mercy on us." 31 The crowd rebuked them, telling them to be quiet, but they cried out even more loudly, "Lord, Son of David, have mercy on us."

32 Then Jesus stood still and called to them and said, "What do you wish me to do for you?"

33 They said to him, "Lord, that our eyes may be opened." 34 Then Jesus, being moved with compassion, touched their eyes. Immediately they received their sight and followed him.

Matthew 20 General Notes

Special concepts in this chapter

The parable of the landowner and his vineyard

Jesus tells this parable (Matthew 20:1-16) to teach his disciples that what God says is right is different from what people say is right.


Matthew 20

20:1-16

Why did Jesus speak a parable about a landowner?

[20:1]

Jesus told the disciples a parable about a landowner. The landowner gave each man a denarius,. This was the amount of money he would get for working one day. He gave each man the same amount of money, even though they worked for different lengths of time. He wanted to teach them about how God rewarded people. He did this in a way that was just. He does not reward people who do more things or greater things. He rewards people on how much they obey God.

See: Reward; Disciple; Kingdom of God; Reward

When did the landowner hire these men?

[20:1]

He hired some men early in the morning, perhaps at 6am. The third hour was at 9am. The sixth hour was at 12pm. The ninth hour was 3pm. The eleventh hour was at 5pm. They worked to about 6pm.

How will the first be last?

[20:16]

Jesus said that the first will be last and the last will be first. This was a metaphor. He wanted people to know that people who are not honored while they live on earth will be rewarded and honored in Jesus’ kingdom. However, the people who want to be honored while they live on earth will not be honored in Jesus’ kingdom. Jesus wanted Christians to serve other people.

See: Kingdom of God; Reward; Kingdom of God

What did Matthew write in verse 16?

[20:16]

Some ancient copies of the Greek New Testament contain the words “many are called, but few are chosen.” More and older copies of the Greek New Testament do not contain these words. Scholars think that Matthew did not write these words.

See: Differences in the Ancient Copies of the Bible

20:17-28

What did Jesus tell the disciples would soon happen?

[20:18]

Jesus told the disciples that he was going to die and would be made alive again. That is, he will be resurrected.

See: Resurrect (Resurrection); Resurrect (Resurrection)

Who is the Son of Man?

[20:18]

See: Son of Man

Why did the chief priests and scribes give Jesus over to the Gentiles?

[20:19]

At this time, the Jews were not able to kill a criminal. Only their Roman leaders could do this. They were Gentiles. Jesus wanted to say that the Jewish leaders would get the Gentile leaders to kill Jesus.

See: Gentile; Scribe; Gentile

What did it mean to be flogged?

[20:19]

Jesus said that he was going to be flogged. That is, he would be beaten with a whip.

Who will sit at Jesus’ right and left side in heaven?

[20:21, 20:23]

Jesus will sit at God the Father’s right hand in heaven. Therefore, God is at Jesus’ left hand side in heaven. However, God the Father is the one who decides who will sit at the right hand of Jesus (see: Matthew 20:23). The mother wanted her sons to be honored in heaven more than the other disciples.

See: Disciple; Heaven; Disciple

What was the cup Jesus was about to drink?

[20:22}

Jesus said that he was about to drink from a cup. This was a metaphor. He was about to suffer and die. When they said they could drink from this cup, Jesus prophesied that they would suffer and die.

See: Prophecy (Prophesy); Prophecy (Prophesy)

Why were the disciples angry with James and John?

[20:24]

Some scholars think the other disciples were angry with James and John because they asked Jesus to honor them in a special way. Other scholars think the other disciples were jealous or afraid James and John might be honored over them.

See: Disciple

Why did Jesus speak about the Gentiles?

[20:25]

Jesus spoke about the Gentiles. The Gentiles ruled over the Jews and were very harsh to them. However, Jesus did not want certain Christians to rule over other Christians in this way. He wanted Christian leaders to serve other Christians. How did Jesus give his life as a ransom for many?

Jesus gave his life as a ransom for many. That is, he died so that people would be at peace with God. Matthew spoke about Jesus dying as a price to be paid for their sin. Jesus was punished for the sins of those who believe in him. By dying, Jesus set them free from being slaves to always wanting to sin.

See: Son of Man; Sin; Son of Man

Who will be honored in heaven?

[20:26]

Jesus taught the disciples that certain people will be honored in heaven. Just as Jesus came to serve, so Christians who serve other people will be honored in heaven.

See: Heaven; Heaven

20:29-34

Where was Jericho?

[20:29]

See Map: Jericho

Why did the crowd rebuke these men?

[20:31]

Matthew wrote that the crowd of people rebuked the two blind men. Some scholars think they wanted the blind men to be quiet to respect Jesus. Perhaps they were being very loud. Or perhaps they were rebuked for saying that Jesus is the messiah.

See: Messiah (Christ)

How was Jesus the Son of David?

[20:31]

The blind man called Jesus the “Son of David.” David was one of Jesus’ ancestors. He called him this because the messiah was prophesied to be one of David’s descendants. He was to fulfill the covenant God made with David.

See: Ancestor and Descendant (Fathers, Forefathers, Patriarchs); Covenant with David ; Prophecy (Prophesy); Ancestor and Descendant (Fathers, Forefathers, Patriarchs)

Chapter 21

1 As Jesus and his disciples approached Jerusalem and came to Bethphage, to the Mount of Olives, then Jesus sent two disciples, 2 saying to them, "Go into the next village, and you will immediately find a donkey tied up there, and a colt with her. Untie them and bring them to me. 3 If anyone says anything to you about that, you will say, 'The Lord has need of them,' and that person will immediately send them with you."

4 Now all this happened to fulfill what was spoken through the prophet, saying,

 

    5 "Tell the daughter of Zion,

         'See, your King is coming to you,

     Humble and riding on a donkey—

         on a colt, the foal of a donkey.'"

6 Then the disciples went and did just as Jesus had instructed them. 7 They brought the donkey and the colt and put their cloaks on them, and Jesus sat upon the cloaks. 8 Most of the crowd spread their cloaks on the road, and others cut branches off the trees and spread them in the road. 9 Then the crowds that went before Jesus and those that followed him were shouting,

 

     "Hosanna to the son of David!

     Blessed is the one who comes in the name of the Lord!

     Hosanna in the highest!"

10 When Jesus had come into Jerusalem, all the city was stirred and said, "Who is this?"

11 The crowds answered, "This is Jesus the prophet from Nazareth in Galilee."

12 Then Jesus entered the temple. He cast out all those who bought and sold in the temple, and turned over the tables of the money changers and the seats of those who sold doves. 13 He said to them, "It is written, 'My house will be called a house of prayer,' but you make it a den of robbers."

14 Then the blind and the lame came to him in the temple, and he healed them. 15 But when the chief priests and the scribes saw the marvelous things that he did, and when they heard the children shouting in the temple and saying, "Hosanna to the Son of David," they became very angry.

16 They said to him, "Do you hear what they are saying?"

Jesus said to them, "Yes! But have you never read,

 

     'Out of the mouths of little children and nursing infants

         you have prepared praise'?"

 

17 Then Jesus left them and went out of the city to Bethany and spent the night there.

18 Now in the morning as he returned to the city, he was hungry. 19 Seeing a fig tree along the roadside, he went to it and found nothing on it except leaves. He said to it, "May there be no fruit from you ever again," and immediately the fig tree withered.

20 When the disciples saw it, they marveled and said, "How did the fig tree immediately wither away?"

21 Jesus answered and said to them, "Truly I say to you, if you have faith and do not doubt, you will not only do what was done to this fig tree, but you will even say to this mountain, 'Be taken up and thrown into the sea,' and it will be done. 22 Whatever you ask for in prayer, believing, you will receive."

23 When Jesus had come into the temple, the chief priests and the elders of the people came to him as he was teaching and said, "By what authority do you do these things, and who gave you this authority?"

24 Jesus answered and said to them, "I also will ask you one question. If you tell me, I will tell you by what authority I do these things. 25 The baptism of John—from where did it come? From heaven or from men?"

They discussed among themselves, saying, "If we say, 'From heaven,' he will say to us, 'Why then did you not believe him?' 26 But if we say, 'From men,' we fear the crowd, because they all view John as a prophet." 27 Then they answered Jesus and said, "We do not know."

He also said to them, "Neither will I tell you by what authority I do these things. 28 But what do you think? A man had two sons. He went to the first and said, 'Son, go labor today in the vineyard.'

29 "The son answered and said, 'I will not,' but afterward he changed his mind and went.

30 "Then the man went to the second son and said the same thing. He answered and said, 'I will go, sir,' but he did not go. 31 Which of the two sons did his father's will?"

They said, "The first one."

Jesus said to them, "Truly I say to you, the tax collectors and the prostitutes will enter the kingdom of God before you do. 32 For John came to you in the way of righteousness, but you did not believe him. But the tax collectors and the prostitutes believed him. But you, even when you saw this, you did not repent afterward and believe him.

33 "Listen to another parable. There was a man, a landowner. He planted a vineyard, set a hedge about it, dug a winepress in it, built a watchtower, and rented it out to vine growers. Then he went into another country. 34 When the time of the fruit harvest approached, he sent some servants to the vine growers to collect his fruit. 35 But the vine growers took his servants, beat one, killed another, and stoned still another. 36 Again, the owner sent other servants, more than the first, but the vine growers treated them in the same way. 37 After that, the owner sent his own son to them, saying, 'They will respect my son.'

38 "But when the vine growers saw the son, they said among themselves, 'This is the heir. Come, let us kill him and take over the inheritance.' 39 So they took him, threw him out of the vineyard and killed him. 40 Now when the owner of the vineyard comes, what will he do to those vine growers?"

41 They said to him, "He will violently destroy those wicked people, and he will then rent out the vineyard to other vine growers, men who will give him his share of crops at the harvest time."

42 Jesus said to them, "Did you never read in the scriptures,

 

     'The stone which the builders rejected

         has been made the cornerstone.

     This was from the Lord,

         and it is marvelous in our eyes'?

43 Therefore I say to you, the kingdom of God will be taken away from you and will be given to a nation that produces its fruits. 44 Whoever falls on this stone will be broken to pieces. But anyone on whom it falls will be crushed." 45 When the chief priests and the Pharisees heard his parables, they understood he was speaking about them. 46 Seeking to arrest him, they were afraid of the crowd, because the people regarded him as a prophet.


Matthew 21 General Notes

Structure and formatting

Some translations set poetry farther to the right than the rest of the text to show that it is poetry. The ULB does this with the poetry in 21:5,16 and 42, which is from the Old Testament.

Special concepts in this chapter

The donkey and the colt

Jesus rode into Jerusalem on an animal. In this way he was like a king who came into a city after he had won an important battle. Also, the kings of Israel in the Old Testament rode on donkeys. Other kings rode on horses. So Jesus was showing that he was the king of Israel and that he was not like other kings.

Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John all wrote about this event. Matthew and Mark wrote that the disciples brought Jesus a donkey. John wrote that Jesus found a donkey. Luke wrote that they brought him a colt. Only Matthew wrote that there were both a donkey had a colt. No one knows for sure whether Jesus rode the donkey or the colt. It is best to translate each of these accounts as it appears in the ULB without trying to make them all say exactly the same thing. (See: Matthew 21:1-7 and Mark 11:1-7 and Luke 19:29-36 and John 12:14-15)

Hosanna

This is what the people shouted to welcome Jesus into Jerusalem. This word means "save us," but people used it to praise God.

Matthew 21

21:1-11

Where were Bethpage, and the Mount of Olives?

[21:1]

See Map: Bethpage; Mount of Olives

How did Jesus enter into Jerusalem?

[21:2]

Jesus entered Jerusalem in the same way a king returned home after a great victory in a war. Often, they rode on horses or in a chariot. Jesus entered Jerusalem on a colt because he told people that he was the messiah and the king of the Jews (see: Zechariah 9:9). He also had a great victory. He lived the perfect life and was about to die so that people could have peace with God.

See: 21:1-11; Luke 19:28-44; John 12:12-19

See: Chariot; Atone (Atonement); Chariot

See Map: Jerusalem

What was a colt?

[21:2]

A colt was a young donkey. This colt was with its mother, a donkey (see: Matthew 21:2). No one had ever ridden this colt.

Why did Jesus say, “the Lord has need of them”?

[21:3]

Some scholars think that Jesus said, “the Lord has need of them” to say that God needed them for God’s purpose. Other scholars think Jesus said this because he was calling himself Lord. That is, he was calling himself God. Still other scholars think the owner of the colt was traveling with Jesus, and Jesus said the owner had need of the colt.

See: Jesus is God

What prophet said these things?

[21:4]

When Jesus did these things, he fulfilled the prophecy Zechariah made (see: Zechariah 9:9). Jesus was the king about whom Zechariah wrote.

Why did the disciples put their cloaks on the colt?

[21:7]

The disciples put their cloaks on the colt to make it easier for Jesus to ride on it. A cloak was a thick coat people wore outside of their clothes.

See: Disciple

Why did the people put things on the road?

The road on which Jesus rode the colt was dirty. The people showed the highest honor to Jesus by putting things on the road so that he would not get dirty. In ancient times, people did this to welcome a new king (see: 2 Kings 9:13).

Why did the people shout “hosanna”?

[21:9]

The people shouted “Hosanna” because they wanted God to save them. They said that Jesus came “in the name of the Lord.” That is, God gave Jesus power and permission to reveal God’s will. They believed Jesus was the messiah who came to begin the kingdom promised to David.

See: Reveal (Revelation); Heaven; Bless (Blessing); Messiah (Christ); Will of God; Covenant with David ; Reveal (Revelation)

What did the people think about Jesus?

[21:11]

The people thought Jesus was a prophet. However, they did not believe he was the messiah. They did not know that he was their king.

See: Messiah (Christ);Messiah (Christ)

21:12-22

Why did Jesus make people leave the temple?

[21:11, 21:12]

Jesus made people leave the temple. These were people who sold things. He did not want people to try to make money in the temple. He only wanted people to go to the temple to worship God. People from every nation were to go to the temple to pray (see: Isaiah 56:7). However, the Jews did not want other people to go to the temple to worship God. Instead, they used the area made for the Gentiles to worship God as a market to make money.

Jesus said the temple was made into a “den of robbers.” That is, a place where people who robbed other people lived (see: Jeremiah 7:11). Scholars think Jesus said the same thing Jeremiah wrote so everyone would know that the people did not honor God in the temple.

Earlier, Jesus also made people leave the temple (see: John 2:13-22).

See: Pray (Prayer); Gentile; Worship; Pray (Prayer)

Why were the chief priests and scribes angry at Jesus?

[21:15]

The chief priests and scribes wanted to kill Jesus because of what he did. Some scholars think the chief priests and the scribes made money from the things sold in the temple. Jesus stopped them from making money in the temple. Other scholars think they were angry because the children said that Jesus was the messiah.

See: Messiah (Christ); High Priest; Chief Priest; Scribe; Messiah (Christ)

Where did the Jewish leaders read this?

[21:16]

The Jewish leaders read the things Jesus said in Psalms (see: Psalms 8:2).

Where was Bethany?

[21:17]

See Map: Bethany

Why did Jesus curse the fig tree?

[21:19]

Jesus saw a fig tree. It did not have fruit. He cursed it. He did not do this because he was hungry or angry. It was a metaphor. In the same way a fig tree produced figs, so God wanted Israel to produce fruit. That is, he wanted Israel to serve and obey him. However, they did not do this. Therefore, they made themselves useless to God.

See: Metaphor; Fruit (Metaphor); Metaphor

Why did Jesus speak about a mountain?

[21:21]

Jesus spoke about a mountain to teach his disciples. This was a metaphor. He wanted to say they could do great things if they trusted in God, that is, Jesus wanted the disciples to pray with faith. They were not actually going to move a mountain. This was hyperbole. However, God did many miracles through these disciples after Jesus was made alive again.

See: Faith (Believe in); Metaphor; Miracle; Hyperbole; Pray (Prayer); Faith (Believe in)

21:23-32

Who were the elders?

[21:23]

The elders were the Jewish leaders who were older men.

See: Chief Priest; Chief Priest

Why did the leaders want to know who gave Jesus permission to do the things he did?

[21:23]

The Jewish leaders asked Jesus who gave him permission to do the things he did. They did not think God gave him permission to do the things he did. They thought Satan gave him permission to do these things. Some scholars think the leaders really wanted to have Jesus say that God sent him. They thought that the Law of Moses said they could kill him if he did this. However, God sent Jesus.

See: Law of Moses; Law of Moses

Why did Jesus ask the leaders about the baptism of John?

[21:25]

Jesus asked the leaders about who gave John the Baptist permission to do the things he did. The people in Israel loved John the Baptist. They thought God sent him. John the Baptist said that Jesus was the messiah. The leaders were afraid of saying that God sent John because they would also have to say that God sent Jesus. However, the people would be angry with these leaders and reject them if they said that God did not send John.

See: Messiah (Christ); Messiah (Christ)

Why did Jesus speak about two sons?

[21:28]

Jesus spoke about two sons. One son said no, but obeyed his father. The second son said yes to his father but did not obey him. This was a parable. He wanted the Jewish leaders to know that the people who sinned, but came to believe in him were like the first son. The Jewish leaders who said nice things to Jesus but did not believe in him were like the second son. The Jewish leaders rejected Jesus and rejected God who sent Jesus. The tax collectors and prostitutes believed in Jesus, therefore they obeyed God.

See: Sin; Tax (Tax Collector, Toll) ; Prostitute (Prostitution) ; Repent (Repentance); Will of God; Kingdom of God; Sin

21:33-46

Why did Jesus talk about a vineyard?

[21:33]

Jesus used a parable about a vineyard. He did this to talk about Israel. In the same way a farmer makes and protects a vineyard, so God made and protects the nation of Israel. God gave certain leaders permission to care for Israel. He sent prophets to Israel to help the Israelites obey God. However, they did not do what these prophets said to do. Finally, God sent Jesus. That is, he sent his son. Then the Jewish leaders had him killed.

See: Son of God; Vine (Vineyard); Prophet; Son of God

Why did the owner of the vineyard send servants?

[21:34]

The owner of the vineyard sent his servants to get what they promised to the owner for using his land. They promised him a certain part of what they grew.

Why did the men beat the servants?

[21:35]

These men did not want to give the servant what they promised to give to the owner of the land. Therefore, they beat the servants. They wanted the owner to know they were not going to give him anything and that he should not send any more servants.

What was an inheritance?

[21:38]

See: Inherit (Inheritance, Heir)

From what scripture did Jesus quote?

[21:42]

See: Psalm 118:22-23

How would the kingdom of God be taken away from the Jewish leaders?

[21:43]

Jesus said the kingdom of God would be taken away from the Jewish leaders. He was rejecting them because they rejected him. They would not be a part of his kingdom. Jesus also said he would give it to another nation that produced fruit. That is, people who obey him and honor him will inherit the kingdom of God. This included Gentile people who obeyed and honored Jesus.

See: Gentile; Fruit (Metaphor); Inherit (Inheritance, Heir); Gentile

Why did the Jewish leaders want to arrest Jesus?

[21:46]

The Jewish leaders wanted to arrest Jesus after they heard what he said. That is, they wanted to catch him so they could kill him. This is because they knew he was speaking about them. Jesus knew the Jewish leaders wanted to kill him.

Why were the Jewish leaders afraid of the crowd?

[21:46]

Matthew wrote that the Jewish leaders feared all the people there. Many people thought Jesus was a great man. However, Matthew wanted people to know that the Jewish leaders feared the people more than they feared God. They thought they were obeying God by killing Jesus. However, they were not obeying God.

Chapter 22

1 Jesus spoke to them again in parables, saying, 2 "The kingdom of heaven is like a certain king who prepared a marriage feast for his son. 3 He sent out his servants to call those who had been invited to come to the marriage feast, but they would not come. 4 Again the king sent other servants, saying, 'Tell them who are invited, "See, I have prepared my dinner. My oxen and fattened cattle have been killed, and all things are ready. Come to the marriage feast."' 5 But they paid no attention and went away, one to his farm, another to his business. 6 The others seized the king's servants, treated them shamefully, and killed them. 7 The king was angry, and he sent his soldiers and they destroyed those murderers and burned their city. 8 Then he said to his servants, 'The wedding is ready, but those who were invited were not worthy. 9 Therefore go to the highway crossings and invite as many people to the marriage feast as you can find.' 10 The servants went out to the highways and gathered together all the people they found, both bad and good. So the wedding hall was filled with guests. 11 But when the king came in to look at the guests, he saw a man there who was not wearing wedding clothes. 12 The king said to him, 'Friend, how did you come in here without wedding clothes?' But the man was speechless. 13 Then the king said to the servants, 'Bind this man hand and foot, and throw him out into the outer darkness, where there will be weeping and the grinding of teeth.' 14 For many people are called, but few are chosen."

15 Then the Pharisees went and planned how they might entrap Jesus in his own talk. 16 Then they sent to him their disciples, together with the Herodians. They said to Jesus, "Teacher, we know that you are truthful, and that you teach God's way in truth. You care for no one's opinion, and you do not show partiality between people. 17 So tell us, what do you think? Is it lawful to pay taxes to Caesar or not?"

18 But Jesus understood their wickedness and said, "Why are you testing me, you hypocrites? 19 Show me the coin for the tax." Then they brought a denarius to him. 20 Jesus said to them, "Whose image and name are these?"

21 They said to him, "Caesar's."

Then Jesus said to them, "Then give to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's." 22 When they heard it, they marveled. Then they left him and went away.

23 On that day some Sadducees, who say there is no resurrection, came to him. They asked him, 24 saying, "Teacher, Moses said, 'If a man dies, having no children, his brother must marry his wife and raise children for his brother.' 25 There were seven brothers. The first married and then died. Having left no children, he left his wife to his brother. 26 Then the second brother did the same thing, then the third, all the way to the seventh brother. 27 After them all, the woman died. 28 Now in the resurrection, whose wife will she be of the seven brothers? For they all had married her."

29 But Jesus answered and said to them, "You are mistaken because you do not know the scriptures or the power of God. 30 For in the resurrection they neither marry nor are given in marriage. Instead, they are like angels in heaven. 31 But concerning the resurrection of the dead, have you not read what was spoken to you by God, saying, 32 'I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob'? God is not the God of the dead, but of the living." 33 When the crowds heard this, they were astonished at his teaching.

34 But when the Pharisees heard that Jesus had silenced the Sadducees, they gathered themselves together. 35 One of them, an expert in the law, asked him a question, testing him— 36 "Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the law?"

37 Jesus said to him, "'Love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind.' 38 This is the great and first commandment. 39 And a second commandment is like it—'Love your neighbor as yourself.' 40 On these two commandments depend the whole law and the prophets."

41 Now while the Pharisees were still gathered together, Jesus asked them a question. 42 He said, "What do you think about the Christ? Whose son is he?"

They said to him, "The son of David."

43 Jesus said to them, "How then does David in the Spirit call him Lord, saying,

 

    44 'The Lord said to my Lord,

         "Sit at my right hand,

         until I make your enemies your footstool"'?

45 If David then calls the Christ 'Lord,' how is he David's son?" 46 No one was able to answer him a word, and no man dared ask him any more questions from that day on.


Matthew 22 General Notes

Structure and formatting

Some translations set poetry farther to the right than the rest of the text to show that it is poetry. The ULB does this with the poetry in verse 44, which is from the Old Testament.

Special concepts in this chapter

Wedding Feast

In the parable of the wedding feast (Matthew 22:1-14), Jesus taught that when God offers to save a person, that person needs to accept the offer. Jesus spoke of life with God as a feast that a king prepares for his son, who has just gotten married. In addition, Jesus emphasized that not everyone whom God invites will properly prepare themselves to come to the feast. God will throw these people out from the feast.

Other possible translation difficulties in this chapter

Implicit information

Speakers usually do not say things that they think their hearers already understand. When the king in the parable said, "My oxen and fattened calves have been killed" (Matthew 22:4), he assumed that the hearers would understand that those who had killed the animals had also cooked them.

Paradox

A paradox is a true statement that appears to describe something impossible. To the Jews, the ancestors were the masters of the descendants, but in one psalm David calls one of his descendants "Lord." Jesus tells the Jewish leaders that this is a paradox, saying, "If David then calls the Christ 'Lord,' how is he David's son?" (Matthew 22:45).


Matthew 22

22:1-14

What was a parable?

[22:1]

See: Parable

Why did Jesus want this man to invite certain types of people to a dinner or a banquet?

[22:3]

Jesus wanted this man to invite certain types of people to a feast because Jesus wanted God to reward them in the kingdom of heaven. Jesus sent his servants to call those who had been invited to this feast. He was talking about the Jews. He wanted the Jews to believe in him, but they rejected him. When he spoke about the king, Jesus was speaking about himself. He also wanted to say that the Jews did evil things to the apostles. When he spoke about those who were not invited, he was speaking about the Gentiles. The Gentiles believed in Jesus and would be rewarded. When Jesus spoke about the man not wearing wedding clothes, he was speaking about someone who wanted to be rewarded by God, but who rejected Jesus. Jesus will punish this man.

See: Punish (Punishment); Reward; Kingdom of God; Apostle; Gentile; Punish (Punishment)

What is the outer darkness?

[22:13]

Jesus spoke about the outer darkness. He was speaking about hell. This is a place where people will be punished for their sins.

See: Sin; Punish (Punishment); Sin

What did it mean that many people are called but few are chosen?

[22:14]

Jesus said that many people were called but few people were chosen. He wanted everyone to believe in him, but only a few people believed in him. Everyone could believe in him and be rewarded, but most people reject him.

See: Kingdom of God; Call (Calling); Reward; Kingdom of God

22:15-22

What was a pharisee?

[22:15]

See: Pharisees

How did the Jewish leaders try to trap Jesus?

[22:15]

The Jewish leaders tried to trap Jesus. That is, they tried to get Jesus to say something that would cause someone to be angry with him. They wanted Jesus to speak against the leader of the Roman Empire. They did this by asking Jesus about paying taxes to the ruler of the Roman Empire. The Jewish leaders asked Jesus about paying taxes. The Romans made the Jews pay taxes to them every year. The Jews had to pay the Romans to rule them. The Jews did not like having to pay this tax. The Jews would have been angry if Jesus said that the Jews should pay this tax to the Romans. The Romans would be angry if Jesus said that the Jews should not pay this tax to the Romans.

See: Rome (Roman Empire, Caesar); Rome (Roman Empire, Caesar)

What was a Herodian?

[22:16]

A Herodian was someone who served King Herod. He was the leader of the Jews and served the Romans.

See: King Herod

What was a hypocrite?

[22:18]

A hypocrite was a person who said one thing, but they did not believe it. Or they said something and did not do it.

See: Hypocrisy (Hypocirte)

What was a denarius?

[22:19]

See: Denarius

What were the things that belonged to Caesar?

[22:21]

The things that belonged to Caesar were all things that allowed him to govern Rome. This included taxes that must be paid to his government. The coins, at that time, had the face of Caesar imprinted on them.

See: Rome (Roman Empire, Caesar)

What were the things that belonged to God?

[22:21]

Scholars think Jesus was speaking about people’s hearts when he spoke about the things that belonged to God. That is, a person should live according to faith. They should love, worship, and obey God. God is the creator of everything. He is rules everything. Therefore, all things belong to God.

See: Faith (Believe in); Faith (Believe in)

22:23-33

What did the Sadducees think happened when people died?

[22:23]

The Sadducees did not think that people would be resurrected. That is, they did not think people would go to heaven or hell when they died. They did not believe in many things taught in the Bible.

See: Hell; Resurrect (Resurrection) ; Heaven; Hell

Why did the Sadducees ask Jesus this question?

[22:28]

The Sadducees tried to trap Jesus by asking this question. They wanted Jesus to say something that would make people angry. They thought their question proved that no one would be resurrected.

See: Resurrect (Resurrection); Sadducees; Inherit (Inheritance, Heir); Resurrect (Resurrection)

Why did Jesus say to the Sadducees, “you do not know the scriptures or the power of God”?

[22:29]

When Jesus told the Sadducees they did not “know the scriptures or the power of God” he meant they had not understood the scriptures correctly. That is, they did not understand what the Bible taught about resurrection. They also did not understand God’s power to raise a person from the dead and give them a new body.

See: Resurrect (Resurrection); Heaven; Worship; Angel; Resurrect (Resurrection)

Why did Jesus speak about Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob?

[22:32]

See: Exodus 3:6

22:34-46

What was meant by the words, “on these two commandments depend the whole law and the prophets”?

[22:40]

Jesus told the lawyer that the two greatest commandments were to love God and to love other people. That is, if a person loved God and people the way the Bible told them to, then they obeyed all of the Law of Moses.

See: Law of Moses; Command (Commandment); Law of Moses

What are the Law and the prophets?

[22:40]

See: Old Testament (Law and Prophets)

What was meant by the words, “how then does David in the spirit call him Lord”?

[22:43]

Scholars think that Jesus wanted his listeners to know that the Holy Spirit told David what to say when he wrote Psalm 110:1.

See: Holy Spirit

What did David mean with the words, “the Lord said to my Lord”?

[22:44]

Scholars think that when David said, “the Lord said to my Lord” he was speaking about the messiah whom God sent. In other words, David said, “God (Yahweh) said to my Lord (Messiah).” David said that Jesus is God. God will also make the messiah’s enemies his footstool. That is, one day God will defeat all of the messiah’s enemies.

See: Jesus is God; Yahweh (I am); Messiah (Christ); Trinity; Jesus is God

Why did people stop asking Jesus questions?

[22:46]

Matthew wrote that people stopped asking Jesus questions. This was because they knew they could not trap Jesus by asking him questions because of the way Jesus answered them.

Chapter 23

1 Then Jesus spoke to the crowds and to his disciples. 2 He said, "The scribes and the Pharisees sit in Moses' seat. 3 Therefore whatever they command you to do, do these things and observe them. But do not imitate their deeds, for they say things but then do not do them. 4 Yes, they bind heavy burdens that are difficult to carry, and then they put them on people's shoulders. But they themselves will not move a finger to carry them. 5 They do all their deeds to be seen by people. For they make their phylacteries wide, and they enlarge the edges of their garments. 6 They love the places of honor at feasts and the chief seats in the synagogues, 7 and special greetings in the marketplaces, and to be called 'Rabbi' by people. 8 But you must not be called 'Rabbi,' for you have only one teacher, and all of you are brothers. 9 And call no man on earth your father, for you have only one Father, and he is in heaven. 10 Neither must you be called 'teacher,' for you have only one teacher, the Christ. 11 But he who is greatest among you will be your servant. 12 Whoever exalts himself will be humbled, and whoever humbles himself will be exalted.

13 But woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! You shut the kingdom of heaven against people. For you do not enter it yourselves, and neither do you allow those about to enter to do so. 14[1]15 Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you go over sea and land to make one convert, and when he has become one, you make him twice as much a son of hell as you.

16 "Woe to you, you blind guides, you who say, 'Whoever swears by the temple, it is nothing. But whoever swears by the gold of the temple, he is bound to his oath.' 17 You blind fools! Which is greater, the gold or the temple that makes the gold holy? 18 And, 'Whoever swears by the altar, it is nothing. But whoever swears by the gift that is on it, he is bound to his oath.' 19 You blind people! Which is greater, the gift or the altar that makes the gift holy? 20 Therefore, he who swears by the altar swears by it and by everything on it. 21 The one who swears by the temple swears by it and by the one who lives in it. 22 And the one who swears by heaven swears by the throne of God and by him who sits on it.

23 "Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you tithe mint and dill and cumin, but you have left undone the weightier matters of the law—justice and mercy and faithfulness. But these you ought to have done and not to have left the other undone. 24 You blind guides, you who strain out a gnat but swallow a camel!

25 "Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you clean the outside of the cup and of the plate, but inside they are full of robbery and self-indulgence. 26 You blind Pharisee! Clean first the inside of the cup and of the plate, so that the outside may become clean also.

27 "Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you are like whitewashed tombs, which on the outside look beautiful, but on the inside are full of dead men's bones and everything unclean. 28 In the same way, you also outwardly appear righteous to men, but on the inside you are full of hypocrisy and lawlessness.

29 "Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you build the tombs of the prophets and decorate the tombs of the righteous. 30 You say, 'If we had lived in the days of our fathers, we would not have been partners with them in shedding the blood of the prophets.' 31 Therefore you testify against yourselves that you are sons of those who murdered the prophets. 32 You also fill up the measure of your fathers. 33 You serpents, you offspring of vipers, how will you escape the judgment of hell? 34 Therefore, see, I am sending you prophets and wise men and scribes. Some of them you will kill and crucify, and some you will whip in your synagogues and chase from city to city. 35 The result is that upon you will come all the righteous blood that has been shed on the earth, from the blood of righteous Abel, to the blood of Zechariah son of Berekiah, whom you murdered between the sanctuary and the altar. 36 Truly I say to you, all these things will come upon this generation.

37 "Jerusalem, Jerusalem, you who kill the prophets and stone those who are sent to you! How often did I long to gather your children together, just as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings, but you were not willing! 38 See, your house is left to you desolate. 39 For I say to you, You will not see me from now on until you say, 'Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord.'"

Matthew 23 General Notes

Special concepts in this chapter

Hypocrites

Jesus calls the Pharisees hypocrites many times (Matthew 23:13, 15, 23, 25, 27, 29) and carefully tells what he means by doing that. The Pharisees made rules that no one could actually obey, and then they persuaded the ordinary people that they were guilty because they could not obey the rules. Also, the Pharisees obeyed their own rules instead of obeying God's original commands in the law of Moses.

Other possible translation difficulties in this chapter

Name calling

In most cultures, it is wrong to insult people. The Pharisees took many of the words in this chapter as insults. Jesus called them "hypocrites," "blind guides," "fools," and "serpents" (Matthew 23:16-17). Jesus uses these words to say that God would surely punish them because they were doing wrong.

Paradox

A paradox is a true statement that appears to describe something impossible. Jesus uses a paradox when he says, "He who is greatest among you will be your servant" (Matthew 23:11-12).


Matthew 23

23:1-12

How did the scribes and pharisees sit in Moses’s seat?

[23:2]

Jesus said that the Scribes and Pharisees sit in Moses’ seat. This was a metaphor. He wanted to say they they thought God gave them permission to do the things that Moses did. When Moses told people to do something in the Law of Moses, it was as if God told them to do it. The Scribes and Pharisees thought this was true when they taught people.

See: Law of Moses; Pharisees; Metaphor; Law of Moses

Why should people not imitate the deeds of the Scribes and Pharisees?

[23:3]

Jesus said that the people should not imitate the deeds of the Scribes and Pharisees. That is, they should not do the same types of things the Scribes and Pharisees did. This is because the Scribes and Pharisees did not do the things they taught. They taught good things, but they did not do these good things.

See: Pharisees; Pharisees

What were phylacteries?

[23:5]

Phylacteries were leather bags or boxes in which pieces of parchment with portions of the Law of Moses written on them were placed. The Jewish leaders wore these on the forearms or fastened in some way onto their foreheads.

See: Deuteronomy 6:8, 11:18

Advice to translators: Parchment were pieces of leather and someone could write on them.

What did it mean for the Pharisees to “enlarge the edges of their garments”?

[23:5]

The Jews wore clothes with tassles on the edges or corners. These were to remind the people of the Law of Moses. The Pharisees purposefully wore the tassels on the edges of their garments extra long, so people would see them and want to honor them. They did not do this to honor God.

See: Pharisees; Pharisees

See: Numbers 15:38-39

Why did Jesus not want people to be called “rabbi”?

[23:8]

Some scholars think Jesus did not want people to want to be called “rabbi” because people who did this thought they were greater than other people. Fewer scholars think Jesus was saying that there was truly only one “rabbi” or teacher God sent to men, and that was Jesus.

See: Rabbi

Why did Jesus not want people to be called “father”?

[23:9]

Jesus did not want people to call someone “father” in this way because there is only one who Jesus believed was the father, and that is God. God is the only father in this way and is the only one to be honored as father.

See: God the Father

What did Jesus want people to do?

[23:11, 23:12]

Jesus wanted people to serve one another. In the kingdom of God, those who are considered the greatest are those who serve others. They serve others because this honors God. If they do not do this, then God will humble them in some way.

See: Kingdom of God

23:13-22

What was a woe?

[23:13]

See: Woe

What was a hypocrite?

[23:13]

A hypocrite was someone who said one thing and did something different.

See: Hypocrisy (Hypocirte)

How do the scribes and Pharisees shut the kingdom of heaven?

[23:13]

Jesus said that the Scribes and Pharisees shut the kingdom of heaven. Some scholars think the Pharisees did this by teaching false things about God. They did not want people to enter into the kingdom of heaven. They could not help people to be at peace with God because they were not at peace with God.

See: Kingdom of God; Pharisees; Kingdom of God

What did Matthew write in verse 14?

[23:14]

Some ancient copies of the Greek New Testament include a verse 14 which says, “Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you devour widows’ houses, while you make a show of long prayers. You will therefore receive greater condemnation. '' Other ancient copies of the Greek New Testament put these words after verse 12. More and older copies of Greek New Testament do not contain these words. Scholars do not think Matthew wrote these words.

See: Differences in the Ancient Copies of the Bible

What did Jesus mean by telling the Pharisees, “you go over sea and land to make one convert”?

[23:15]

When Jesus said the Scribes and Pharisees went over sea and land to make one convert he was using a figure of speech. That is, they worked very hard to get someone to worship God in the way they thought was right. However, when they do this, they taught them the wrong things. This made it harder for them to know the right things. People would not have peace with God even though the Pharisees promised them peace with God.

See: Pharisees; Pharisees

What was a blind guide?

[23:16]

Jesus spoke about a blind guide. This was a metaphor. A guide was someone who helped people to know where to go or what to do. When he said they were blind, he wanted to say that they did not understand spiritual things.

See: Blind (Metaphor)

What did it mean for someone to “swear”?

[23:16]

he Pharisees were wrong with their teaching about swearing an oath. Jesus taught them that is was wrong to break any oath.

See: Swear (Oath)

Why did Jesus talk about a cup and a plate?

[23:25, 23:26]

When Jesus taught about the cup and the plate, he used a metaphor. Just as a person cleaned the outside of a cup, so Jesus was telling the Jewish leaders that they were only concerned about how they looked on the outside. That is, they were concerned with what people thought of them. Jesus taught the Jewish leaders that they should be more concerned about the things they thought and wanted to do. If they did that, they would do the right things.

See: Clean and Unclean; Clean and Unclean

How were the Jewish leaders like whitewashed tombs?

[23:27]

When Jesus said the Jewish leaders were like whitewashed tombs he used a metaphor. Some scholars think Jesus was telling the Pharisees that they tried to make themselves look good on the outside, but on the inside was nothing but unclean thoughts and lives.

See: Clean and Unclean; Metaphor; Clean and Unclean

23:29-39

Why did Jesus talk about the prophets?

[23:29]

Jesus rebuked the Jewish leaders. These leaders thought they honored the prophets by decorating their tombs. They thought they would not have killed the prophets if they were alive when the prophets were alive. However, Jesus lived among the Pharisees and he was God’s greatest prophet. The Pharisees wanted to kill Jesus. They would be punished and live forever in hell because they rejected Jesus.

See: Hell; Pharisees; Punish (Punishment); Hell

Who did Jesus send?

[23:34]

Jesus talked about sending certain people. These were the prophets and apostles. He sent them to Israel to declare the truth about Jesus. He prophesied that the Jewish leaders would also reject the people Jesus sent. All people who followed the Jewish leaders will also be punished.

See: Punish (Punishment); Apostle; Prophecy (Prophesy) ; Synagogue; Crucify (Crucifixion); Punish (Punishment)

Who were Abel and Zechariah?

[23:35]

Abel and Zechariah were people who were killed because they obeyed God. In the Old Testament, Abel was the first person murdered, and Zechariah was the last person murdered.

See: Old Testament (Law and Prophets)

What did Jesus say to Jerusalem?

[23:37]

Jesus spoke to Jerusalem. He was speaking to the Jews. God sent prophets to the Jews so they would honor and obey God. However, they did not want to do these things. Because of this, God will punish the Jews. They will not see Jesus until he returns.

See: Psalm 118:26

See: Punish (Punishment); Prophet; Punish (Punishment)


Matthew 23:1

General Information:

This is the beginning of a new part of the story, in which Jesus teaches about salvation and the final judgment. Here he begins to warn the people about the scribes and Pharisees.

Here "seat" represents the authority to rule and make judgments. Alternate translation: "have authority as Moses had" or "have authority to say what the law of Moses means"

Matthew 23:3

whatever ... do these things and observe them

"all the things ... do them and observe them" or "everything ... do it and observe it"

Matthew 23:4

they bind heavy burdens that are difficult to carry, and then they put them on people's shoulders. But they themselves will not move a finger to carry them

Here "bind heavy burdens ... put them on people's shoulders" is a metaphor for the religious leaders making many difficult rules and making the people obey them. And "will not move a finger" is an idiom that means the religious leaders will not help the people. Alternate translation: "they make you obey many rules that are difficult to follow. But they do nothing at all to help you follow the rules"

Matthew 23:5

They do all their deeds to be seen by people

This can be stated in active form. Alternate translation: "They do all their deeds so that people can see what they do"

Both of these are things the Pharisees do to appear as if they honor God more than other people.

all of you are brothers

Here "brothers" means "fellow believers."

Matthew 23:9

If you do not keep the metaphor of the house, be sure to change all instances of "shut" and "enter." Also, since the words "kingdom of heaven," which refer to God, who lives in heaven, occur only in Matthew, try to use your language's word for "heaven" in your translation.

Connecting Statement:

Jesus begins to rebuke the religious leaders because of their hypocrisy.

But woe to you

"How terrible it will be for you!" See how you translated this in Matthew 11:21.

You shut the kingdom of heaven against people ... you do not enter it ... neither do you allow those about to enter to do so

Jesus is speaking of the kingdom of heaven, which is God ruling over his people, as if it were a house, the door into which the Pharisees have shut from the outside so that neither they nor anyone else can enter the house. The phrase "kingdom of heaven" is found only in the book of Matthew. If possible, use your language's word for "heaven" in your translation. Alternate translation: "You make it impossible for people to enter the kingdom of heaven ... you do not enter it ... neither do you allow those about to enter to do so" or "You prevent people from accepting God, who lives in heaven, as king ... you do not accept him as king ... and you make it impossible for those about to accept him as king to do so"

Chapter 24

1 Jesus went out from the temple and was going on his way. His disciples came to him to point out to him the buildings of the temple. 2 But he answered and said to them, "Do you not see all these things? Truly I say to you, not one stone will be left on another that will not be torn down."

3 As he sat on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to him privately and said, "Tell us, when will these things happen? What will be the sign of your coming and of the end of the age?"

4 Jesus answered and said to them, "Be careful that no one leads you astray. 5 For many will come in my name. They will say, 'I am the Christ,' and will lead many astray. 6 You will hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not troubled, for these things must happen; but the end is not yet. 7 For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be famines and earthquakes in various places. 8 But all these things are only the beginning of birth pains. 9 Then they will deliver you up to tribulation and kill you. You will be hated by all the nations for my name's sake. 10 Then many will stumble, and betray one another and hate one another. 11 Many false prophets will rise up and lead many astray. 12 Because lawlessness will increase, the love of many will grow cold. 13 But the one who endures to the end will be saved. 14 This good news of the kingdom will be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all the nations. Then the end will come.

15 "Therefore, when you see the abomination of desolation, which was spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing in the holy place" (let the reader understand), 16 "let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains, 17 let him who is on the housetop not go down to take anything out of his house, 18 and let him who is in the field not return to take his cloak. 19 But woe to those who are pregnant and to those who are nursing infants in those days! 20 Pray that your flight will not occur in the winter or on a Sabbath. 21 For there will be great tribulation, such as has not been from the beginning of the world until now, no, nor ever will be again. 22 Unless those days had been shortened, no flesh would be saved. But for the sake of the elect those days will be shortened. 23 Then if anyone says to you, 'Look, here is the Christ!' or, 'There is the Christ!' do not believe it. 24 For false Christs and false prophets will arise and show great signs and wonders, so as to lead astray, if possible, even the elect. 25 See, I have told you ahead of time. 26 Therefore, if they say to you, 'Look, he is in the wilderness,' do not go out to the wilderness. Or, 'See, he is in the inner rooms,' do not believe it. 27 For as the lightning shines out from the east and flashes all the way to the west, so will be the coming of the Son of Man. 28 Wherever a dead animal is, there the vultures will gather.

29 "But immediately after the tribulation of those days

 

     the sun will be darkened,

         the moon will not give its light,

     the stars will fall from the sky,

         and the powers of the heavens will be shaken. 30 Then the sign of the Son of Man will appear in the sky, and all the tribes of the earth will mourn. They will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of the sky with power and great glory. 31 He will send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they will gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of the sky to the other.

32 "Learn a lesson from the fig tree. As soon as the branch becomes tender and puts out its leaves, you know that summer is near. 33 So also, when you see all these things, you should know that he is near, at the very gates. 34 Truly I say to you, this generation will not pass away until all of these things will have happened. 35 Heaven and the earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away. 36 But concerning that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father. 37 As the days of Noah were, so will be the coming of the Son of Man. 38 For as in those days before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage until the day that Noah entered the ark, 39 and they knew nothing until the flood came and took them all away—so will be the coming of the Son of Man. 40 Then two men will be in a field—one will be taken, and one will be left. 41 Two women will be grinding with a mill—one will be taken, and one will be left. 42 Therefore be on your guard, for you do not know on what day your Lord will come. 43 But know this, that if the master of the house had known in what time of night the thief was coming, he would have been on guard and would not have allowed his house to be broken into. 44 Therefore you must also be ready, for the Son of Man will come at an hour that you do not expect.

45 "So who is the faithful and wise servant whom his master has set over his household in order to give them their food at the right time? 46 Blessed is that servant whom his master will find doing that when he comes. 47 Truly I say to you that the master will set him over all his possessions. 48 But if an evil servant says in his heart, 'My master has been delayed,' 49 and begins to beat his fellow servants, and eats and drinks with drunkards, 50 then the master of that servant will come on a day that the servant does not expect and at an hour that he does not know. 51 His master will cut him in pieces and assign him a place with the hypocrites, where there will be weeping and grinding of teeth.


Matthew 24 General Notes

Structure and formatting

In this chapter, Jesus begins to prophesy about the future from that time until he returns as king of everything. (See: prophet)

Special concepts in this chapter

"The end of the age"

In this chapter, Jesus gives an answer to his disciples when they ask how they will know when he will come again.

The example of Noah

In the time of Noah, God sent a great flood to punish people for their sins. He warned them many times about this coming flood, but it actually began suddenly. In this chapter, Jesus draws a comparison between that flood and the last days. (See: sin)

Other possible translation difficulties in this chapter

"Let"

The ULB uses this word to begin several commands of Jesus, such as "let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains" (24:16), "let him who is on the housetop not go down to take anything out of his house" (24:17), and "let him who is in the field not return to take his cloak" (24:18). There are many different ways to form a command. Translators must select the most natural ways in their own languages. Note that this word does not mean "permit."


Matthew 24

24:1-14

What did Jesus say about the temple buildings?

[24:1]

The disciples were amazed by the buildings that made the temple in Jerusalem. However, Jesus prophesied that the temple would be destroyed. The destruction of the temple happened about 40 years after Jesus returned to heaven. However, it was not completely destroyed at that time. There is one wall that still remains from the temple in Jerusalem.

See: Heaven; Temple; Prophecy (Prophesy) ; Heaven

See Map: Jerusalem; Mount of Olives

What was a sign?

[24:3]

See: Sign

What was meant by the words, “the end of the age”?

[24:3]

Scholars have different ideas about the end of the age. 1. The end of the age took place about 40 years after Jesus died when the Romans destroyed Jerusalem. 1. The destruction of Jerusalem began the end of the age and it will end in the future. 1. Jesus spoke about actual events that will occur.

See: Last Days

What did Jesus teach about the signs of the “end of the age”?

[24:4}

Jesus told his disciples about things that would happen at the end of the age. However, the disciples did not know when all these things were going to happen. Jesus did talk about certain things that must happen before he returns to the earth.

  1. There will be many false Christs. That is, people who say they are messiah, but are false teachers.
  2. There will be wars and rumors of wars. That is, people will worry about wars and there will be many wars.
  3. There will be many earthquakes and famines. Jesus said these are “birth pains.” This was a metaphor to say that difficult things that will happen are just the beginning of the difficult things to come.
  4. People who worship Jesus will be persecuted.
  5. Some people will make it so that certain Christians they know will be persecuted.
  6. There will be many false prophets. They will teach people the wrong things and people will obey them.
  7. People will do many evil things and because of this people will stop loving one another.

See: Worship; Disciple; Jesus' Return to Earth; Messiah (Christ); Metaphor; Persecute (Persecution) ; Gospel; False Prophet; Worship

How are these things like the pain of having a child?

[24:8]

Jesus said that these things are like the pains of having a child. This was a metaphor. When a mother brings a child into the world, it hurts. However, something new is made. Jesus was warning the disciples that there would be difficult and painful things in the future. Those things would happen before Jesus returns.

See: Persecute (Persecution); Disciple; Jesus' Return to Earth; Persecute (Persecution)

What did Jesus mean when he said, “for my name’s sake”?

[24:9]

When Jesus said, “for my name’s sake” he meant that people were going to persecute the disciples and even kill them because they were loyal to him, and honored him as the messiah.

See: Messiah (Christ); Disciple; Persecute (Persecution) ; Messiah (Christ)

How will the person who “endures to the end” be saved?

[24:13]

Jesus said that the person who endures to the end when persecuted will be saved. Scholars think Jesus was talking about different things when he said these words.

  1. Some scholars think Jesus was talking about a person who remains faithful, even when there is persecution. That is, Jesus will ultimately save them from persecution on earth by taking them to heaven.

  2. Other scholars think there will be people who say they are Christians, but reject Jesus when persecution comes. They prove that they were never truly Christians.

See: Preach (Preacher) ; Save (Salvation, Saved from Sins); Heaven; Gospel; Kingdom of God; Preach (Preacher)

24:15-28

What is the abomination of desolation?

[24:15]

Jesus talked about an “abomination of desolation.” This was when someone who rejected God did something that greatly dishonored God. Daniel also wrote about this (see: Daniel 7:27; 11:31; 12:11). Some scholars think Daniel wrote about a Gentile leader who sacrificed an unclean animal on the altar in the temple. Some scholars think Jesus talked about a time when the antichrist would sacrifice something in the temple or claim to be God in the temple. Other scholars think Jesus spoke about a time when people would no longer go to the temple. Other scholars think it is some type of idolatry.

Some scholars think Jesus spoke about a time 40 years after he returned to heaven. Other scholars think Jesus spoke about a time near to his return to the earth (see: Revelation 4-19).

See: Jesus' Return to Earth; Sacrifice; Clean and Unclean; Altar; Temple; Antichrist; Idolatry (Idol); Heaven; Jesus' Return to Earth

What did Jesus want people to do when they saw the abomination of desolation?

[24:16]

Jesus wanted people to flee and go away from Jerusalem when people saw the abomination of desolation. He wanted them to know that he will judge people at this time. He warned people by telling them that there would be great dangers at this time.

See: Daniel 9:27

See: Judge (Judgment); Tribulation; Judge (Judgment)

How did Jesus want the people to pray?

[24:20]

When Jesus told the people to pray, he meant that they should pray continually. This is because it would be very difficult to live during these times. Winter weather made travel much more difficult. The Jewish Christians still followed the Sabbath according to the Law of Moses, so traveling on a Sabbath would also be difficult for them.He wanted them to pray that they would not have more difficult things in their life when they had to live through these difficult times.

See: Persecute (Persecution); Sabbath; Law of Moses; Persecute (Persecution)

What is the great tribulation?

[24:21]

See: Tribulation

What was meant by the words, “unless those days are shortened”?

[24:22]

Jesus said that if God did not make this period of time short, then no flesh would be saved. That is, no one would live through it. Jesus warned people about a time of great tribulation. Scholars think that God’s judgment will be so complete that all people would die. However, God will shorten the time of his judgment on earth so that his elect will be saved.

See: Judge (Judgment); Tribulation; Judge (Judgment)

Why should people not believe that Jesus returned?

[24:23]

Jesus warned about a time when many people would say they are the messiah or that they are Jesus who returned to earth. However, everyone will know that Jesus has returned to earth when he returns (see: Matthew 24:23-27). Therefore, people should not believe other people who say this even if they do miracles and signs. However, many Christians will believe these false messiahs and false prophets.

See: Son of Man; Jesus' Return to Earth; False Prophet; Sign; Miracle; Son of Man

Why did Jesus speak about vultures?

[24:28]

Jesus spoke about vultures. They are birds that eat dead animals. They can see these dead animals from far away. When people saw vultures in the sky, they knew that there was a dead animal. This was a metaphor. He was speaking about how everyone will know when Jesus returns to the earth.

See: Metaphor

24:29-44

When are the days of tribulation?

[24:29]

Jesus spoke about certain days of tribulation or trouble. Some scholars think he spoke about the difficult times that happened soon after he returned to earth. Other scholars think he spoke about the time near his return to the earth.

See: Persecute (Persecution); Jesus' Return to Earth; Persecute (Persecution)

Why did Jesus talk about things that happen in the sky?

[24:29]

Jesus spoke about certain things people could see in the sky. Some scholars think these things will actually happen just before Jesus returns to the earth. Other scholars think this was a metaphor. Just as the stars will fall from the sky, so the rulers of the world will be destroyed. Jesus said these things to warn people.

See: Joel 2:10; 3:15; Ezekiel 32:7-8

See: Metaphor

What will people see?

[24:30]

The people will see sign of the Son of Man. That is, the sign itself will be Jesus coming to earth with glory. Scholars think Jesus will return to earth and everyone will know that he is God.

See: Heaven; Son of Man; Glory (Glorify); Jesus is God; Jesus' Return to Earth; Heaven

What will Jesus do when he returns to the earth?

[24:30, 24:31]

When Jesus returns to the earth, he will bring angels who serve him. He will gather all Christians from all over the world and bring them to himself.

See: Elect (Election); Angel; Elect (Election)

Why did Jesus talk about a fig tree?

[24:32]

Jesus talked about a fig tree to help people understand the things he said. This was a metaphor. When a fig tree does certain things, people know that the seasons are changing. He wanted people to know that he was going to return to the earth soon when the things he spoke about happened.

See: Hebrew Calendar (Seasons in Israel); Jesus' Return to Earth; Hebrew Calendar (Seasons in Israel)

When will all these things happen?

[24:34]

Some scholars think that these things happened 40 years after Jesus prophesied these things. Other scholars think Jesus spoke about people in the future who lived when they saw the things he spoke about in this passage.

Jesus said that heaven and earth will end, but his words will not change. The apostle spoke about heaven and earth ending (see: Revelation 21). However, the things about which Jesus spoke must first happen.

Jesus said that he did not know when these things would happen. Only God the Father knew these things will happen.

See: Apostle ; Jesus' Return to Earth; Heaven; God the Father; Apostle

Why did Jesus speak about Noah?

[24:37]

When Noah lived, God punished the whole world with a flood. God warned people that he was going to punish them, but they did not listen to Noah, or repent. When the flood came, the people were not prepared and they could not escape the waters of the flood. This is also how it will be when Jesus returns. People will not believe the things Jesus said. They will be unprepared, that is, they will not repent of their sin. God will punish them and it will be too late for them to repent.

See: Sin; Son of Man; Punish (Punishment); Sin

How will one person be taken and the other left behind?

[24:40]

Jesus warned that two people will be together. One of them will be taken and the other will be left behind. Some scholars think Jesus was speaking about the rapture. At this time, Christians will be taken from the earth and non-Christians will be left behind to endure the tribulation. Other scholars think Jesus was speaking about non-Christians being taken away to judgment and death.

See: Judge (Judgment)Kingdom of God; Tribulation; Judge (Judgment)

24:45-51

Why did Jesus talk about a master and a servant?

[24:45]

Jesus talked about a master and a servant. He wanted the Chrsitians to encourage other Chrsitians because they served him. He will reward the Christians who obey him. However, there are some people who do not obey Jesus and Jesus will reject them. Scholars think these are people who say they are Christians but who reject Jesus and do not serve him. Because of this, Jesus will send them to be punished forever in hell.

See: Hell; Hell

What was a hypocrite?

[24:51]

A hypocrite was someone who said one thing and did something else.

See: Hypocrisy (Hypocirte)

What is weeping and grinding of teeth?

[24:51]

Jesus spoke about weeping and grinding teeth. This is what people would do when they were suffering. Scholars think people who are in great pain will grind their teeth and cry loudly. In the Bible, these words are used to talk about the things people do when they are being punished.

See: Punish (Punishment)

Chapter 25

1 "Then the kingdom of heaven will be like ten virgins who took their lamps and went to meet the bridegroom. 2 Five of them were foolish and five were wise. 3 For when the foolish virgins took their lamps, they did not take any oil with them. 4 But the wise virgins took containers of oil along with their lamps. 5 Now while the bridegroom was delayed, they all got sleepy and slept. 6 But at midnight there was a cry, 'Look, the bridegroom! Go out and meet him.'

7 Then all those virgins rose up and trimmed their lamps. 8 The foolish said to the wise, 'Give us some of your oil because our lamps are going out.'

9 "But the wise answered and said, 'Since there will not be enough for us and you, go instead to those who sell and buy some for yourselves.' 10 While they went away to buy, the bridegroom came, and those who were ready went with him to the marriage feast, and the door was shut.

11 "Afterward the other virgins also came and said, 'Master, master, open for us.'

12 "But he answered and said, 'Truly I say to you, I do not know you.' 13 Watch therefore, for you do not know the day or the hour.

14 "For it is like when a man was about to go into another country. He called his own servants and entrusted his possessions to them. 15 To one of them he gave five talents, to another he gave two, and to yet another he gave one talent. Each one received an amount according to his own ability, and that man went on his journey. 16 The one who received the five talents went at once and worked with them and gained another five talents. 17 In the same way, the one who had received two talents gained another two. 18 But the servant who had received one talent went away, dug a hole in the ground, and hid his master's money. 19 Now after a long time the master of those servants came back and settled accounts with them. 20 The servant who had received the five talents came and brought another five talents. He said, 'Master, you entrusted me with five talents. See, I have gained five talents more.'

21 "His master said to him, 'Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful over a few things. I will put you in charge over many things. Enter into the joy of your master.'

22 "The servant who had received two talents came and said, 'Master, you gave me two talents. See, I have gained two more talents.'

23 "His master said to him, 'Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful over a few things. I will put you in charge over many things. Enter into the joy of your master.'

24 "Then the servant who had received one talent came and said, 'Master, I know that you are a hard man. You reap where you did not sow, and you harvest where you did not scatter. 25 I was afraid, so I went away and hid your talent in the ground. See, you have here what belongs to you.'

26 "But his master answered and said to him, 'You wicked and lazy servant, you knew that I reap where I have not sowed and harvest where I have not scattered. 27 Therefore you should have given my money to the bankers, and at my coming I would have received back my own with interest. 28 Therefore take away the talent from him and give it to the servant who has ten talents. 29 For to everyone who possesses more will be given, and he will have an abundance. But from anyone who does not possess anything, even what he does have will be taken away. 30 Throw the worthless servant out into the outer darkness, where there will be weeping and grinding of teeth.'

31 "When the Son of Man comes in his glory and all the angels with him, then he will sit on his glorious throne. 32 Before him will be gathered all the nations, and he will separate the people one from another, as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats. 33 He will place the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on his left. 34 Then the King will say to those on his right hand, 'Come, you who have been blessed by my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world. 35 For I was hungry and you gave me food; I was thirsty and you gave me a drink; I was a stranger and you took me in; 36 I was naked and you clothed me; I was sick and you cared for me; I was in prison and you came to me.'

37 "Then the righteous will answer and say, 'Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you? Or thirsty and give you a drink? 38 When did we see you a stranger and take you in? Or naked and clothe you? 39 When did we see you sick or in prison and come to you?'

40 "Then the King will answer and say to them, 'Truly I say to you, what you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did it for me.' 41 Then he will say to those on his left hand, 'Depart from me, you cursed, into the eternal fire that has been prepared for the devil and his angels, 42 because I was hungry, but you did not give me food; I was thirsty, but you did not give me a drink; 43 I was a stranger, but you did not take me in; naked, but you did not clothe me; sick and in prison, but you did not care for me.'

44 "Then they will also answer and say, 'Lord, when did we see you hungry, or thirsty, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not serve you?'

45 "Then he will answer them and say, 'Truly I say to you, what you did not do for one of the least of these, you did not do for me.' 46 These will go away into eternal punishment, but the righteous into eternal life."

Special concepts in this chapter

The parable of the ten virgins

Jesus told the parable of the ten virgins (Matthew 25:1-13) to tell his followers to be ready for him to return. His hearers could understand the parable because they knew Jewish wedding customs.

When the Jews arranged marriages, they would plan for the wedding to take place weeks or months later. At the proper time, the young man would go to his bride's house, where she would be waiting for him. The wedding ceremony would take place, and then the man and his bride would travel to his home, where there would be a feast.


Matthew 25

25:1-13

Why did Jesus talk about ten virgins?

[25:1]

Jesus spoke about ten virgins and the kingdom of heaven. This was a parable. In ancient Israel, a groom would go to the house of his bride’s parents to get married. Then he would bring her to his house at night. There would be a feast at his house.

Jesus wanted people to be ready for him to return, even if it took longer for Jesus to return than they expected. Some scholars think Jesus was speaking about Jews who lived during the tribulation. Other scholars think Jesus was speaking about Christians.

The virgins who were not prepared for the groom to come were not allowed to be part of the wedding feast. Some scholars think this is because they rejected Jesus. They will be punished and live forever in hell. Other scholars think Jesus was speaking about Christians who would not be rewarded because they did not obey Jesus.

Advice to translators: A virgin was someone who has never had sex. A groom or bridegroom was what people called a man who was getting married.A bride was what people called a woman who was getting married.

See: Reward; Parable; Bride of Christ; Wedding; Tribulation; Jesus' Return to Earth; Punish (Punishment); Reward

25:14-30

Why did Jesus talk about the parable of the five talents?

[25:15]

Jesus told these people a parable about servants. Jesus is the master. He gave each of his servants talents. A talent was a very large sum of money. It would normally take a person 20 years to earn this much money. He wanted to say that Jesus gave people different abilities and trusted them to serve him in different ways. Two of the servants used their money. He wanted people to know that it pleased God when people used their abilities to serve God. The other man did not use the abilities God gave him. Overall, he wanted people to know that God would reward people who served and obeyed him. He would also entrust more to people who had been faithful to him.

When Jesus spoke about the evil servant, some scholars think he was speaking about the Jews. God had trusted them and told them about the messiah. However, they rejected the messiah and would be punished for it. Other scholars think that the evil servants were people who said they served God, but who were not at peace with God. They would be punished and sent to hell.

See: Messiah (Christ); Reward; Punish (Punishment); Hell; Messiah (Christ)

What is the outer darkness?

[25:30]

When Jesus spoke about the outer darkness, he was speaking about hell.

See: Hell; Hell

What is weeping and grinding of teeth?

[25:30]

Jesus spoke about weeping and grinding teeth. This is what people would do when they were suffering. Scholars think people who are in great pain will grind their teeth and cry loudly. In the Bible, these words are used to talk about the things people do when they are being punished.

See: Punish (Punishment)

25:31-46

What will Jesus do when he returns to the earth?

[25:31]

When Jesus, the Son of man, returns to the earth, he will bring angels who serve him. He will gather all Christians from all over the world and bring them to himself. He will sit on his glorious throne. That is, he will rule the world.

Jesus will also separate the sheep from the goats. This is a metaphor. He will separate Christians from non-Christians. Christians will inherit the kingdom of God. This is something that God prepared for them when he created the world. He rewards them because they served other people and when they served other people, they served God. He will punish those who did believe and obey God. They will be sent to hell to be punished.

Chapter 26

1 It came about that when Jesus had finished all these words, he said to his disciples, 2 "You know that after two days the Passover is coming, and the Son of Man will be given over to be crucified."

3 Then the chief priests and the elders of the people were gathered together in the palace of the high priest, who was named Caiaphas. 4 They plotted together to arrest Jesus stealthily and kill him. 5 For they were saying, "Not during the festival, so that a riot does not arise among the people."

6 Now while Jesus was in Bethany in the house of Simon the leper, 7 as he was reclining at table, a woman came to him having an alabaster jar of very expensive ointment, and she poured it upon his head. 8 But when his disciples saw it, they became angry and said, "What is the reason for this waste? 9 This could have been sold for a large amount and given to the poor."

10 But Jesus, knowing this, said to them, "Why are you causing trouble for this woman? For she has done a beautiful thing for me. 11 You always have the poor with you, but you will not always have me. 12 For when she poured this ointment on my body, she did it for my burial. 13 Truly I say to you, wherever this good news is preached in the whole world, what this woman has done will also be spoken of in memory of her."

14 Then one of the twelve, who was named Judas Iscariot, went to the chief priests 15 and said, "What are you willing to give me to turn him over to you?" They weighed out thirty pieces of silver for him. 16 From that moment he sought an opportunity to turn him over to them.

17 Now on the first day of unleavened bread the disciples came to Jesus and said, "Where do you want us to prepare for you to eat the Passover meal?"

18 He said, "Go into the city to a certain man and say to him, 'The Teacher says, "My time is at hand. I will keep the Passover at your house with my disciples."'" 19 The disciples did as Jesus directed them, and they prepared the Passover meal.

20 When evening came, he sat down to eat with the twelve disciples. 21 As they were eating, he said, "Truly I say to you that one of you will betray me."

22 They were very sorrowful, and each one began to ask him, "Surely not I, Lord?"

23 He answered, "The one who dips his hand with me in the dish is the one who will betray me. 24 The Son of Man will go, just as it is written about him. But woe to that man by whom the Son of Man is betrayed! It would be better for that man if he had not been born."

25 Judas, who would betray him said, "Is it I, Rabbi?"

He said to him, "You have said it yourself."

26 As they were eating, Jesus took bread, blessed it, and broke it. He gave it to the disciples and said, "Take, eat. This is my body." 27 He took a cup and gave thanks, and gave it to them and said, "Drink it, all of you. 28 For this is my blood of the covenant that is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins. 29 But I say to you, I will not drink again of this fruit of the vine, until that day when I drink it new with you in my Father's kingdom."

30 When they had sung a hymn, they went out to the Mount of Olives. 31 Then Jesus said to them, "All of you will fall away tonight because of me, for it is written,

 

     'I will strike the shepherd

         and the sheep of the flock will be scattered.'

32 But after I am raised up, I will go ahead of you into Galilee."

33 But Peter said to him, "Even if all fall away because of you, I will never fall away."

34 Jesus said to him, "Truly I say to you, this very night, before the rooster crows, you will deny me three times."

35 Peter said to him, "Even if I must die with you, I will not deny you." All the other disciples said the same thing.

36 Then Jesus went with them to a place called Gethsemane and said to his disciples, "Sit here while I go over there and pray." 37 He took Peter and the two sons of Zebedee with him and began to become sorrowful and troubled. 38 Then he said to them, "My soul is deeply sorrowful, even to death. Remain here and watch with me." 39 He went a little farther, fell on his face, and prayed. He said, "My Father, if it is possible, let this cup pass from me. Yet, not as I will, but as you will." 40 He came to the disciples and found them sleeping, and he said to Peter, "What, could you not watch with me for one hour? 41 Watch and pray that you do not enter into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak." 42 He went away a second time and prayed. He said, "My Father, if this cannot pass away unless I drink it, your will be done." 43 He came again and found them sleeping, for their eyes were heavy. 44 So leaving them again, he went away and prayed a third time, saying the same words. 45 Then Jesus came to the disciples and said to them, "Are you still sleeping and taking your rest? Look, the hour is at hand, and the Son of Man is being betrayed into the hands of sinners. 46 Arise, let us go. Look, the one who is betraying me is near."

47 While he was still speaking, Judas, one of the twelve, came. A large crowd came with him from the chief priests and elders of the people. They came with swords and clubs. 48 Now the man who was going to betray Jesus had given them a signal, saying, "The one I kiss is the man. Seize him." 49 Immediately he came up to Jesus and said, "Greetings, Rabbi!" and he kissed him.

50 Jesus said to him, "Friend, do what you have come to do." Then they came, laid hands on Jesus, and seized him. 51 Behold, one of those who was with Jesus stretched out his hand, drew his sword, and struck the servant of the high priest, and cut off his ear. 52 Then Jesus said to him, "Put your sword back in its place, for all those who take up the sword will perish by the sword. 53 Do you think that I could not call upon my Father, and he would send me more than twelve legions of angels? 54 But how then would the scriptures be fulfilled, that this must happen?" 55 At that time Jesus said to the crowd, "Have you come out with swords and clubs to seize me like a robber? Every day I sat teaching in the temple, and you did not arrest me. 56 But all this has happened so that the writings of the prophets might be fulfilled." Then all the disciples abandoned him and fled.

57 Those who had seized Jesus led him away to Caiaphas the high priest, where the scribes and the elders had gathered together. 58 But Peter followed him from a distance to the courtyard of the high priest. He went inside and sat down with the officers to see the outcome. 59 Now the chief priests and the whole council were looking for false testimony against Jesus so that they might put him to death. 60 They did not find any, even though many false witnesses came forward. But later two came forward 61 and said, "This man said, 'I am able to destroy the temple of God and rebuild it in three days.'"

62 The high priest stood up and said to him, "Do you have no answer? What is it that they are testifying against you?" 63 But Jesus was silent. The high priest said to him, "I command you by the living God, tell us whether you are the Christ, the Son of God."

64 Jesus replied to him, "You have said it yourself. But I tell you, from now on you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of Power, and coming on the clouds of heaven."

65 Then the high priest tore his clothes and said, "He has spoken blasphemy! Why do we still need witnesses? Look, now you have heard the blasphemy. 66 What do you think?"

They answered and said, "He is deserving of death." 67 Then they spit in his face and beat him with their fists, while some slapped him 68 and said, "Prophesy to us, you Christ. Who is it that struck you?"

69 Now Peter was sitting outside in the courtyard, and a servant girl came to him and said, "You were also with Jesus of Galilee."

70 But he denied it in front of them all, saying, "I do not know what you are talking about."

71 When he went out to the gateway, another servant girl saw him and said to those there, "This man was also with Jesus of Nazareth."

72 He again denied it with an oath, "I do not know the man!"

73 After a little while those who were standing by came and said to Peter, "Surely you are also one of them, for the way you speak gives you away."

74 Then he began to curse and swear, "I do not know the man," and immediately a rooster crowed.

75 Peter remembered the words that Jesus had said, "Before the rooster crows you will deny me three times." Then he went outside and wept bitterly.


Matthew 26 General Notes

Structure and formatting

Some translations set poetry farther to the right than the rest of the text to show that it is poetry. The ULB does this with the poetry in 26:31, which is from the Old Testament.

Special concepts in this chapter

Sheep

Sheep are a common image used in Scripture to refer to the people of Israel. In Matthew 26:31, however, Jesus used the words "the sheep" to refer to his disciples and to say that they would run away when he was arrested.

Passover

The Passover festival was when the Jews would celebrate the day God killed the firstborn sons of the Egyptians but "passed over" the Israelites and let them live.

The eating of the body and blood

Matthew 26:26-28 describes Jesus's last meal with his followers. At this time, Jesus told them that what they were eating and drinking were his body and his blood. Nearly all Christian churches celebrate "the Lord's Supper," the "Eucharist", or "Holy Communion" to remember this meal.

Other possible translation difficulties in this chapter

Judas's kiss for Jesus

Matthew 26:49 describes how Judas kissed Jesus so the soldiers would know whom to arrest. The Jews would kiss each other when they greeted each other.

"I am able to destroy the temple of God"

Two men accused Jesus of saying that he could destroy the temple in Jerusalem and then rebuild it "in three days" (Matthew 26:61). They were accusing him of insulting God by claiming that God had given him the authority to destroy the temple and the power to rebuild it. What Jesus actually said was that if the Jewish authorities were to destroy this temple, he would certainly raise it up in three days (John 2:19).


Matthew 26

26:1-5

What was Passover?

[26:2]

See: Passover

How will the Son of Man be crucified?

[26:2]

Jesus prophesied that the Son of Man will be crucified. He told people that he was about to die by crucifixion. Jesus told his disciples that someone would help others to arrest Jesus. He was thinking about Judas helping the Jewish leaders to arrest and crucify Jesus.

See: Disciple ; Son of Man; Crucify (Crucifixion); Disciple

Who were the chief priests and elders?

[26:3]

What was the palace of the high priest?

[26:3]

The palace of the high priest was the place where the high priest lived. He also worked in this place.

See: High Priest

Why did the Jewish leaders plot to kill Jesus?

[26:4]

The Jewish leaders plotted to kill Jesus. That is, they made plans to arrest and kill Jesus. They believed that he broke the Law of Moses and should be killed. However, he did not break the Law of Moses. They had to plan to do this in secret, because many people loved Jesus and thought he was a prophet. They did not want people to see them arrest Jesus. They feared what people would be angry if they arrested Jesus.

See: Prophet; Prophet

26:6-16

Why was Jesus reclining at the table?

[26:7]

In ancient Israel, people ate by reclining at a table. Jesus reclined at a table because he had just eaten.

What did this woman have?

[26:7]

The woman had a jar with certain oil that smelled very good. Some people call this perfume. She opened this jar and poured it on Jesus head and feet to honor him. Jesus also said when she did this it was an anointing that prepared his body to be buried. In ancient Israel, people poured various ointments or oils on a dead person before they buried them.

See: John 12:3-7

See: Anoint (Anointing)

Why did the disciples not want this woman to do this?

[26:8, 26:9]

The disciples did not want this woman to pour this expensive oil on Jesus. This is because it would only smell good for a short time. However, if it was sold, it was worth about the same amount of money as someone would make in one year. This could be used to help many poor people. Jesus said they were wrong. This is because what she did was a symbol. She helped Jesus prepare to die so people could be at peace with God. This was greater than helping poor people.

See: Preach (Preacher); Preach (Preacher)

See: Metaphor

How did Jesus know that one of his disciples was going to betray him?

[26:21]

After travelling with these twelve disciples for three years, Jesus had one last meal with them. During this meal, he told them that one of the disciples would betray him. Scholars think that the Holy Spirit helped Jesus to know which disciple was going to betray him.

This man would be punished for what he did. He would live forever in hell and be punished there forever. This is why it would be better for him to have not been born than to be punished forever in hell.

See: Punish (Punishment); Holy Spirit; Hell; Son of Man; Woe; Punish (Punishment)

Why did Jesus say the things he did to the disciples?

[26:23, 26:24]

During this last meal, Jesus told the disciples certain things. Chrsitians now celebrate the Lord’s Supper to remember Jesus (see: 1 Corinthians 11:23-25). Scholars disagree about why Jesus wanted Christians to do this.

Why did Jesus say that “all of you will fall away”?

[26:31]

Jesus said that the disciples would fall away. He said this would fulfill what Zecariah prophesied (see: Zechariah 13:7). This was a metaphor. Jesus was the shepherd and the disciples were the sheep. When Jesus died, the disciples would not want people to know they followed Jesus. However, this did not last for very long.

Why was Jesus sorrowful?

[26:38]

Jesus was sorrowful when he prayed. He knew he was about to die. He was not afraid to die because he knew why he had to die. However, he was overwhelmed because he knew that he was about to be separated from God the Father in some way. He was also punished by God for the sins of all people.

See: Pray (Prayer); Sin; Pray (Prayer)

Why did Jesus want the cup to pass?

[26:39]

See: Will of God; Metaphor; Punish (Punishment); Will of God

Why did Jesus want Peter to pray not to enter into temptation?

[26:41]

Jesus wanted Peter to pray. However, Peter could not pray for one hour without falling asleep. Jesus told Peter to pray and ask not to enter into temptation. That is, that he would not be tempted. Peter was about to be tempted to deny Jesus and he, in fact, did deny Jesus (see: 26:69-75).

See: Tempt (Temptation); Tempt (Temptation)

What did Jesus mean when he said, the spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak?

[26:41]

Jesus said that the spirit was willing but the flesh was weak. People are weak, that is, they give up easily when they are suffering. They cannot do things that honor God without the help of the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit wanted to help Peter. He just needed to ask for help.

See: Holy Spirit; Flesh; Holy Spirit

How has the hour at hand?

[26:45]

Jesus said the hour is at hand. That is, the things he talked about were about to happen.

See: High Priest

How many angels were twelve legions?

[26:53]

Twelve legions of angels were 60,000 angels.

See: Angel

What scriptures does this fulfill?

[26:54]

Jesus said that when the Jewish leaders arrested him, this fulfilled certain prophecies. These were prophecies said by Isaiah (see: Isaiah 53) and Zechariah (see: Zechariah 13:7). The disciples forsook Jesus. That is, they rejected him in some way and ran away.

See: Fulfill (Fulfillment) ; Fulfill (Fulfillment)

26:57-68

What was the courtyard of the high priest?

[26:58]

The courtyard was an open space around the palace of the high priest. The Jewish leaders took Jesus to the courtyard of the high priest. This was where Peter went and sat down and watched the trial of Jesus.

See: Jewish Council (Sanhedrin); Scribe; Elder; Chief Priest; Jewish Council (Sanhedrin)

What was testimony against Jesus?

[26:59]

The Jewish leaders wanted testimony against Jesus. That is, they wanted people to speak against Jesus. They wanted them to say that he broke the Law of Moses in a way that meant he needed to be put to death. However, Jesus never broke the Law of Moses.

See: Law of Moses

What was meant by the words, “I am able to destroy the temple of God and rebuild it in three days”?

[26:61]

Jesus’ accusers claimed that he made the statement, “I am able to destroy the temple of God and rebuild it in three days”? This was a false accusation. When Jesus spoke about the destroying of a temple, this was a metaphor. He was speaking about the temple of his own body, which was to be put to death, and then raised to life in three days (see: John 2:18-22).

See: Resurrect (Resurrection); Metaphor; Resurrect (Resurrection)

Why did the high priest ask Jesus if he was the Messiah, the Son of God?

[26:63]

The high priest asked Jesus if he was the Messiah, the Son of the blessed one because he wanted to accuse Jesus of blasphemy. When he asked Jesus this, he wanted to see if Jesus would plainly say that he is the Messiah and God.

See: Jesus is God; Son of God; High Priest; Blaspheme (Blasphemy); Jesus is God

How did Jesus answer the high priest?

[26:64]

Jesus answered in a way that said he was equal to God. The high priest will see Jesus again when he is next to God in heaven in a place of honor and power and when he comes to judge the world. He will also return to the earth on clouds and will rule the world (see: Daniel 7:13-14).

The high priest tore his clothes because he thought Jesus blasphemed God. This is what the high priest did when someone blasphemed. According to the Law of Moses, blasphemy was punished by killing the person who blasphemed. However, Jesus did not blaspheme God because he is God.

See: Law of Moses; Right Hand; Blaspheme (Blasphemy); Jesus is God; Heaven; Judge (Judgment); Jesus' Return to Earth; Law of Moses

How did the people ask Jesus to prophesy?

[26:68]

Many people beat Jesus at the same time. Scholars think his eyes were covered and he could not see. They mocked Jesus by asking him to prophesy and tell them which of the people hit him.

See: Prophecy (Prophesy)

26:69-75

Why did Peter deny Jesus?

[26:70, 26:72]

When Jesus was arrested, Peter followed near to Jesus. However, he stayed far away so people would not know he was one of the people who followed Jesus. He feared getting arrested. Therefore, he did not want anyone to know that he was one of the disciples. This is why he denied knowing Jesus.

See: Disciple

See: Map: Galilee; Nazareth

Why did the people talk about the way Peter spoke?

[26:73]

The people in Jerusalem spoke in a different way than the people in Galilee. Because of this, the girl knew Peter was from Galilee, the same place where Jesus and his disciples lived.

See: Disciple

See Map: Galilee

Why did Peter begin to curse and swear?

[26:74]

Peter wanted this girl to think he was not a disciple of Jesus. After he told he that he was not a disciple, he put himself under curses and swore. That is, he said if he was lying, God should curse him. He swore to her in the same way someone would speak in front of a judge.

See: Judge (Judgment); Swear (Oath); Curse; Judge (Judgment)

Chapter 27

1 Now when morning came, all the chief priests and elders of the people plotted against Jesus to put him to death. 2 They bound him, led him away, and delivered him to Pilate the governor.

3 Then when Judas, who had betrayed him, saw that Jesus had been condemned, he repented and returned the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and elders, 4 and said, "I have sinned by betraying innocent blood."

But they said, "What is that to us? See to that yourself." 5 Then he threw down the pieces of silver in the temple, and departed, and went out and hanged himself. 6 The chief priests took the pieces of silver and said, "It is not lawful to put this into the treasury because it is the price of blood." 7 They discussed the matter together, and they bought with the money the potter's field in which to bury strangers. 8 For this reason that field has been called, "The Field of Blood" to this day. 9 Then that which had been spoken by Jeremiah the prophet was fulfilled, saying, "They took the thirty pieces of silver, the price set on him by the sons of Israel, 10 and they gave it for the potter's field, as the Lord had directed me."

11 Now Jesus stood before the governor, and the governor asked him, "Are you the King of the Jews?"

Jesus answered him, "You say so."

12 But when he was accused by the chief priests and elders, he answered nothing. 13 Then Pilate said to him, "Do you not hear how many things they accuse you of?" 14 But he did not answer even one word, so that the governor was greatly amazed. 15 Now at the festival it was the custom of the governor to set free one prisoner chosen by the crowd. 16 At that time they had a notorious prisoner named Jesus Barabbas. [1]17 So when they were gathered together, Pilate said to them, "Who do you want me to set free for you? Barabbas, or Jesus who is called Christ?" 18 He knew that they had handed Jesus over to him because of envy.

19 While he was sitting on the judgment seat, his wife sent word to him and said, "Have nothing to do with that innocent man. For I have suffered much today because of a dream I had about him."

20 Now the chief priests and the elders persuaded the crowd that they should ask for Barabbas and destroy Jesus. 21 The governor asked them, "Which of the two do you want me to set free for you?"

They said, "Barabbas."

22 Pilate said to them, "What should I do with Jesus who is called Christ?"

They all answered, "Crucify him."

23 Then he said, "Why, what evil has he done?"

But they cried out even louder, "Crucify him."

24 So when Pilate saw that he was gaining nothing, but instead a riot was starting, he took water, washed his hands in front of the crowd, and said, "I am innocent of the blood of this man. You see to it."

25 All the people said, "May his blood be on us and our children." 26 Then he set Barabbas free for them, but he scourged Jesus and handed him over to be crucified.

27 Then the soldiers of the governor took Jesus into the government headquarters and they gathered the whole company of soldiers. 28 They stripped him and put a scarlet robe on him. 29 They made a crown of thorns and put it on his head, and placed a staff in his right hand. They knelt down before him and mocked him, saying, "Hail, King of the Jews!" 30 They spat on him, and they took the staff and struck him on the head again and again. 31 When they had mocked him, they took the robe off him and put his own garments on him, and led him away to crucify him.

32 As they came out, they found a man from Cyrene named Simon, whom they forced to go with them so that he might carry his cross. 33 They came to a place called Golgotha, which means "The Place of a Skull." 34 They gave him wine to drink mixed with gall. But when he tasted it, he would not drink. 35 When they had crucified him, they divided up his garments by casting lots, 36 and they sat and kept guard over him. 37 Above his head they put the charge against him, which read, "This is Jesus, the king of the Jews." 38 Two robbers were crucified with him, one on the right of him and one on the left. 39 Those who passed by insulted him, shaking their heads 40 and saying, "You who were going to destroy the temple and rebuild it in three days, save yourself! If you are the Son of God, come down from the cross!"

41 In the same way the chief priests were mocking him, along with the scribes and elders, and said, 42 "He saved others, but he cannot save himself. He is the King of Israel. Let him come down off the cross, and then we will believe in him. 43 He trusts in God, let God rescue him now, if God consents to release him. For he even said, 'I am the Son of God.'" 44 In the same way the robbers who were crucified with him also insulted him.

45 Now from the sixth hour darkness came over the whole land until the ninth hour. 46 About the ninth hour, Jesus cried with a loud voice and said, "Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani?" which means, "My God, my God, why have you abandoned me?"

47 When some of those who were standing there heard it, they said, "He is calling for Elijah."

48 Immediately one of them ran and took a sponge, filled it with sour wine, put it on a reed staff, and gave it to him to drink. 49 The rest of them said, "Leave him alone. Let us see whether Elijah comes to save him." 50 Then Jesus cried out again with a loud voice and gave up his spirit.

51 Behold, the curtain of the temple was split in two from the top to the bottom, and the earth shook, and the rocks split apart. 52 The tombs were opened, and the bodies of the holy people who had fallen asleep were raised. 53 They came out of the tombs after his resurrection, entered the holy city, and appeared to many. 54 Now when the centurion and those who were watching Jesus saw the earthquake and the things that had happened, they became very afraid and said, "Truly this was the Son of God." 55 Many women who had followed Jesus from Galilee to attend to his needs were there watching from a distance. 56 Among them were Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James and Joseph, and the mother of the sons of Zebedee.

57 When it was evening, there came a rich man from Arimathea, named Joseph, who was also a disciple of Jesus. 58 He approached Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus. Then Pilate ordered it to be given to him. 59 Joseph took the body, wrapped it in a clean linen cloth, 60 and laid it in his own new tomb that he had cut into the rock. Then he rolled a large stone against the door of the tomb and went away. 61 Mary Magdalene and the other Mary were there, sitting opposite the tomb.

62 The next day, which was the day after the Preparation, the chief priests and the Pharisees were gathered together with Pilate. 63 They said, "Sir, we remember that when that deceiver was alive, he said, 'After three days will I rise again.' 64 Therefore command that the tomb be made secure until the third day, otherwise his disciples may come and steal him and say to the people, 'He has risen from the dead,' and the last deception will be worse than the first."

65 Pilate said to them, "Take a guard. Go and make it as secure as you know how." 66 So they went and made the tomb secure, sealing the stone and placing the guard.

The Jewish leaders needed to get permission from Pontius Pilate, the Roman governor, before they could kill Jesus. This was because Roman law did not allow them to kill Jesus themselves. Pilate was going to set one prisoner free, and he wanted to set Jesus free, but they wanted him to free a very bad prisoner named Barabbas instead.

The tomb

The tomb in which Jesus was buried (Matthew 27:60) was the kind of tomb in which wealthy Jewish families buried their dead. It was an actual room cut into a rock. It had a flat place on one side where they could place the body after they had put oil and spices on it and wrapped it in cloth. Then they would roll a large rock in front of the tomb so no one could see inside or enter.

Matthew 27

27:1-10

Why did the Jewish leaders plot to kill Jesus?

[27:1]

The Jewish leaders plotted to kill Jesus because they believed that he broke the Law of Moses and should be killed. However, he did not break the Law of Moses.

See: Elder; Chief Priest; Elder

Why did the Jewish leaders take Jesus to Pilate?

[27:2]

Pilate was the Roman governor in charge of the Jews. The Jews took Jesus to Pilate because they could not kill anyone without the Pilate giving them permission to do it. The Jews who were there wanted to kill Jesus.

See: Crucify (Crucifixion); Crucify (Crucifixion)

How was someone condemned?

[27:3]

See: Condemn (Condemnation)

Why did Judas repent?

[27:3, 27:4]

Judas saw that the Jewish leaders were trying to kill Jesus. Because of this, he repented of what he did. That is, he wished that he had not helped the Jewish leaders to capture Jesus. He tried to give them the money back that these leaders gave to him. He knew that he did something wrong and that Jesus would be killed even though Jesus did not do anything wrong.

See: Blood; Blood

Why did the chief priest buy the field with the money?

[27:7]

The chief priests did not want the money back they gave to Judas. This is because the money had been used to help to kill Jesus. This was irony. That was because they had used the money, which was considered blood money that was given to Judas, to purchase a field that was known as the “field of blood.”

See: Jeremiah 19:1-11; Zechariah 11:12-13

See: Chief Priest; Chief Priest

Advice to translators: Blood money is money that someone made for killing someone else or helping to kill another person.

27:11-31

What was meant by Jesus’ answer to Pilate, saying, “You say so”?

[27:11]

Jesus said, “You say so.” Some scholars think this was a way of saying, “what you are saying is true.” Other scholars think Jesus was saying that Pilate was correct in what he said, but that he did not truly understand the meaning of what he said. Why did Jesus not say anything to Pilate about the charges against him?

Jesus did not say anything to Pilate because Jesus did not do anything wrong. Jesus also knew that Jesus needed to die for people’s sins. This also fulfilled a prophecy of Isaiah (see: Isaiah 53:7). This made Pilate think that Jesus was not guilty of the things the Jewish leaders accused him.

See: Prophecy (Prophesy); Atone (Atonement); Fulfill (Fulfillment); Prophecy (Prophesy)

What was the feast about which Matthew spoke?

[27:15]

Who did Pilate want the people to release from prison?

What was the name of the prisoner?

[27:16]

See: Differences in the Ancient Copies of the Bible

See: Punish (Punishment); Clean and Unclean; Blood; Punish (Punishment)

How many soldiers were in a company?

[27:27]

It would have been painful to wear. Kings also had a staff. The soldiers did not think Jesus was a king. Instead, they insulted him and pretended that he was a king.

How did the people mock Jesus?

[29:39, 29:40]

People saw Jesus on the cross and they mocked him. Jesus prophesied that he would rebuild the temple in three days. They thought he was speaking about the temple in Jerusalem. This was a metaphor. He was speaking about dying and being resurrected. They told him to save himself. This was irony. He was dying to save them.

See: Metaphor; Prophecy (Prophesy) ; Temple; Resurrect (Resurrection) ; Save (Salvation, Saved from Sins); Irony; Atone (Atonement); Son of God; Metaphor

How did the Jewish leaders mock Jesus?

[27:41, 27:42]

The Jewish leaders mocked Jesus in the same way the people did. They wanted Jesus to do something to prove he was the Messiah. However, he did not do this. Perhaps this is because they would not have believed in Jesus even if he did this. This was also an irony. They say he saved others, but he could not save himself. Jesus did save other people by dying for them. He saved those who believe in him by dying for their sins. They said God would save him if God sent him, but they did not know that God sent him to die. Jesus died obeying God.

How did Jesus give up his spirit?

[27:50]

When Matthew said Jesus gave up his spirit, he was saying that Jesus died.

See: Spirit (Spiritual)

Why was the curtain in the temple split into two pieces?

[27:52]

In the temple, there was a curtain that separated the holiest place from everything else. It was the place where the high priest went once a year offer a sacrifice to God. God was in this place in a certain way. The curtain was so big and thick that it could not be torn. When Jesus died, it tore. This was a metaphor. When the curtain tore, it showed there was no longer anything that separated people from God.

See:Presence of God; High Priest; Offer (Offering); Sacrifice; Metaphor; Temple; Presence of God

How were people resurrected?

[27:52]

Matthew wrote that there was an earthquake in Jerusalem. At this time, many dead people were resurrected. These were Jews who believed in God and were at peace with God. Some scholars think this happened to show that the death of Jesus broke the power of death itself.

See: Holy Ones ; Holy Ones

Why did the Roman soldier think that Jesus was the Son of God?

[27:54]

From the events that happened at Jesus’ death, the Roman soldier believed Jesus was the Son of God. Some scholars think that the soldier declaring Jesus to be the Son of God showed Jesus’ innocence and the guilt of the people. Other scholars think that he said that Jesus was a very great man whom God blessed. Matthew wanted people to think about how the Roman soldier believed the truth about Jesus and the Jewish leaders did not.

Chapter 28

1 Now after the Sabbath, as it began to dawn toward the first day of the week, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary came to see the tomb. 2 Behold, there was a great earthquake, for an angel of the Lord descended from heaven, came and rolled away the stone, and sat on it. 3 His appearance was like lightning, and his clothing as white as snow. 4 The guards shook with fear and became like dead men. 5 The angel addressed the women and said to them, "Do not be afraid, for I know that you seek Jesus, who has been crucified. 6 He is not here, but is risen, just as he said. Come see the place where the Lord was lying. 7 Go quickly and tell his disciples, 'He has risen from the dead. See, he is going ahead of you to Galilee. There you will see him.' See, I have told you."

8 The women quickly left the tomb with fear and great joy, and ran to tell his disciples. 9 Behold, Jesus met them and said, "Greetings!" The women came, took hold of his feet and worshiped him. 10 Then Jesus said to them, "Do not be afraid. Go tell my brothers to leave for Galilee. There they will see me."

11 Now while the women were going, behold, some of the guards went into the city and told the chief priests all the things that had happened. 12 When the priests had met with the elders and discussed the matter with them, they gave a large amount of money to the soldiers 13 and told them, "Say to others, 'The disciples of Jesus came by night and stole his body while we were sleeping.' 14 If this report reaches the governor, we will persuade him and take any worries away from you." 15 So the soldiers took the money and did as they had been instructed. This report spread widely among the Jews and continues even today.

16 But the eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain to which Jesus had directed them. 17 When they saw him, they worshiped him, but some doubted. 18 Jesus came to them and spoke to them and said, "All authority has been given to me in heaven and on earth. 19 Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations. Baptize them into the name of the Father, of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. 20 Teach them to obey all the things that I have commanded you. See, I am with you always, even to the end of the age."


Matthew 28 General Notes

Special concepts in this chapter

The tomb

The tomb in which Jesus was buried (Matthew 28:1) was the kind of tomb in which wealthy Jewish families buried their dead. It was an actual room cut into a rock. It had a flat place on one side where they could place the body after they had put oil and spices on it and wrapped it in cloth. Then they would roll a large rock in front of the tomb so no one could see inside or enter.

"Make disciples"

The last two verses (Matthew 28:19-20) are commonly known as "The Great Commission" because they contain a very important command given to all Christians. Christians are to "make disciples" by going to people, sharing the gospel with them and training them to live as Christians.

Other possible translation difficulties in this chapter

An angel of the Lord

Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John all wrote about angels in white clothing with the women at Jesus's tomb. Two of the authors called them men, but that is only because the angels looked human. Two of the authors wrote about two angels, but the other two authors wrote about only one of them. It is best to translate each of these passages as it appears in the ULB without trying to make the passages all say exactly the same thing. (See: Matthew 28:1-2 and Mark 16:5 and Luke 24:4 and John 20:12)

Chapter 2

1 Après que Jésus soit né à Bethléem en Judée pendant les jours du roi Hérode, les mages venant de l'Est arrivèrent à Jérusalem disant: 2 «Où est celui qui est né, le roi des Juifs? Nous avons vu son étoile à l'Est et sommes venus l'adorer.» 3 Quand le roi Hérode apprit ceci, il fut troublé, et tout Jérusalem avec lui. 4 Hérode rassembla tous les principaux sacrificateurs et les scribes du peuple et il leur demanda: «Où est censé naître le Christ?» 5 Ils lui dirent: «A Bethléhem de Judée, car voici ce qui a été écrit par le prophète: 6 "Et toi, Bethléhem, situé dans le pays de Juda, tu n'es pas le moindre parmi les dirigeants de Juda, car de toi viendra un dirigeant qui paîtra mon peuple Israël.''» 7 Ensuite, Hérode convoqua secrètement les mages pour leur demander à quel moment exact l'étoile était apparue. 8 Il les envoya à Bethléhem en disant: «Allez et recherchez soigneusement le petit enfant. Quand vous l'aurez trouvé, informez-moi afin que moi aussi je puisse aller et l'adorer.» 9 Après qu'ils aient écouté le roi, ils continuèrent leur chemin et l'étoile qu'ils avaient vu à l'Est avançait devant eux jusqu'à ce qu'il s'arrêta au dessus de l'endroit où se trouvait le petit enfant. 10 Quand ils virent l'étoile, ils furent remplis d'une grande joie. 11 Ils entrèrent dans la maison et virent le petit enfant avec Marie sa mère. Ils se prosternèrent et l'adorèrent. Ils ouvrirent leurs trésors et lui offrirent des dons constitués d'or, d'encens, et de myrrhe. 12 Dieu les avertit dans un songe de ne pas retourner chez Hérode; c'est ainsi qu'ils retournèrent dans leur pays par un autre chemin. 13 Après qu'ils soient partis, un ange du Seigneur apparut à Joseph dans un songe et dit: «Lève-toi, prends le petit enfant et sa mère, et fuis en Egypte. Restes-y jusqu'à ce que je te parle car Hérode cherchera le petit enfant pour le tuer.» 14 Cette nuit-là, Joseph se leva et prit le petit enfant et sa mère et alla en Egypte. 15 Il y demeura jusqu'à la mort d'Hérode. Ceci accomplit ce que le Seigneur avait dit par le prophète: «Hors d'Egypte j'ai appelé mon fils.» 16 Ensuite, Lorsque Hérode se rendit compte que les mages s'étaient moqués de lui, il fut très en colère. Il envoya et fit tuer tous les garçons âgés de deux ans et moins qui se trouvaient à Bethléhem et dans toute cette région, suivant le moment qu'il s'était fixé avec exactitude d'après les mages. 17 Ainsi s'accomplit ce qui avait été annoncé par Jérémie le prophète: 18 «On a entendu une voix à Rama, des pleurs et des grandes lamentations, Rachel pleurant pour ses enfants, et elle refusa d'être consolée parce qu'ils ne sont plus.» 19 Quand Hérode mourut, voici, un ange du Seigneur apparut dans un songe à Joseph en Egypte et dit: 20 «Lève-toi et prends l'enfant et sa mère et va dans le pays d'Israël car ceux qui en voulaient à la vie de l'enfant sont morts.» 21 Joseph se leva, prit l'enfant et sa mère et alla dans le pays d'Israël. 22 Mais quand il apprit qu'Archélaüs régnait sur la Judée à la place de son père Hérode, il eut peur d'y aller. Après que Dieu l'ait averti dans un songe, il partit pour la région de la Galilée 23 et alla et vécut dans une ville appelée Nazareth. Ceci accomplit ce qui avait été annoncé par les prophètes, selon lequel il serait appelé Nazaréen.

Matthew 3:1

Informations générales:

C'est le début d'une nouvelle partie de l'histoire où Matthieu parle du ministère de Jean- Baptiste. Au verset 3, Matthieu cite le prophète Isaïe pour montrer que Jean-Baptiste était le messager désigné par Dieu pour préparer le ministère de Jésus.

En ces jours

Cela fait de nombreuses années que Joseph et sa famille ont quitté l’Égypte et sont allés à Nazareth. C'est probablement à peu près le moment où Jésus commence son ministère. AT: "Quelque temps après" ou "Quelques années plus tard"

Se repentir

Ceci est pluriel dans la forme. John parle à la foule. (Voir: formes de vous )

le royaume des cieux est proche

L'expression «royaume des cieux» fait référence à Dieu en tant que roi. Cette phrase est seulement dans le livre de Matthieu. Si possible, utilisez le mot «paradis» dans votre traduction. AT: «notre Dieu dans le ciel se montrera bientôt roi» (voir: métonymie ) 71 Matthieu 3: 1-3 TraductionNotes

Car c'est celui dont le prophète Isaïe a parlé:

Cela peut être indiqué sous forme active. AT: "Pour Isaïe, le prophète parlait de Jean-Baptiste quand il a dit" (Voir: Actif ou Passif )

La voix de quelqu'un qui appelle dans le désert

Cela peut être exprimé comme une phrase. AT: "La voix de celui qui appelle dans le désert est entendue" ou "Ils entendent le son de quelqu'un qui appelle dans le désert"

Préparez le chemin du Seigneur… faites ses chemins droits

Ces deux phrases signifient la même chose. (Voir: Parallélisme )

Préparez le chemin du Seigneur

«Préparez le chemin pour le Seigneur». Faire cela signifie être prêt à entendre le message du Seigneur quand il viendra. Les gens le font en se repentant de leurs péchés. AT: «Préparez-vous à entendre le message du Seigneur quand il viendra» ou «Repentez-vous et soyez prêt pour que le Seigneur vienne» (Voir: Métaphore et Assumé Connaissance et information implicite )

Matthew 3:4

Maintenant… le miel sauvage

Le mot «Now» est utilisé ici pour marquer une pause dans le scénario principal. Ici, Matthew raconte des informations de base sur John the Baptist. (Voir: Informations générales )

portait des vêtements de cheveux de chameau et une ceinture en cuir autour de la taille

Ce vêtement symbolise que Jean est un prophète comme les prophètes d’il ya longtemps, en particulier le prophète Elie. (Voir: Action symbolique et connaissance supposée et information implicite )

Alors Jérusalem, toute la Judée et toute la région

Les mots «Jérusalem», «Judée» et «la région» sont des métonymes pour les habitants de ces régions. Le mot «tous» est une exagération pour souligner que beaucoup de gens sont sortis. AT: Alors très peut-être des gens de Jérusalem, de Judée et de cette région »(Voir: Métonymie et Hyperbole et Généralisation )

Ils ont été baptisés par lui

Cela peut être indiqué sous forme active. AT: «Jean les a baptisés» (Voir: Actif ou Passif )

Ils

Cela fait référence aux personnes venant de Jérusalem, de Judée et de la région autour du Jourdain. 73 Matthieu 3: 4-6 traductionNotes

Matthew 3:7

Informations générales:

Jean-Baptiste commence à réprimander les pharisiens et les sadducéens.

Vous les enfants de vipères, qui

Ceci est une métaphore. Ici, «progéniture» signifie «avoir la caractéristique de». Les vipères sont une sorte de serpents dangereux et représentent le mal. Cela peut être indiqué comme une phrase séparée. AT: “Tu es méchant Serpent venimeux! Qui »ou« Vous êtes méchant comme des serpents venimeux! Who ”(Voir: Métaphore )

qui t'a averti de fuir la colère qui vient?

John utilise une question pour réprimander les pharisiens et les sadducéens parce qu'ils lui demandaient de les baptiser pour que Dieu ne les punisse pas, mais ils ne voulaient pas arrêter de pécher. AT: "tu ne peux pas fuir la colère de Dieu comme ça" ou "ne pense pas que tu peux fuir la colère de Dieu juste parce que je vous baptise. »(Voir: question rhétorique )

fuir la colère qui arrive

Le mot «colère» est utilisé pour désigner la punition de Dieu parce que sa colère la précède. AT: «fuis la peine qui vient» ou «échappe-toi parce que Dieu est sur le point de te punir» (Voir: métonymie ) 75 Matthieu 3: 7-9 TraductionNotes

Porter des fruits dignes du repentir

L'expression «porter des fruits» est une métaphore faisant référence aux actions d'une personne. AT: «Laissez vos actions montrer que vous vous êtes vraiment repenti» (Voir: Métaphore )

Nous avons Abraham pour notre père

"Abraham est notre ancêtre" ou "Nous sommes des descendants d'Abraham". Les dirigeants juifs pensaient que Dieu ne les punirait pas puisqu'ils étaient les descendants d'Abraham. (Voir: Connaissance supposée et informations implicites )

Car je te dis

Cela met l'accent sur ce que John va dire.

Dieu est capable d'élever des enfants pour Abraham même hors de ces pierres

"Dieu est capable de faire des descendants physiques à partir de ces pierres et de les donner à Abraham"

Matthew 3:10

Déclaration de connexion:

Jean-Baptiste continue de réprimander les pharisiens et les sadducéens.

Déjà la hache a été placée contre la racine des arbres. Donc, chaque arbre qui ne produit pas bon fruit est coupé et jeté dans le feu

Cette métaphore signifie que Dieu est prêt à punir les pécheurs. Cela peut être indiqué sous forme active. AT: "Dieu a sa hache et il est prêt à abattre et à brûler tout arbre qui pousse de mauvais fruits" ou "Quand une personne obtient sa hache pour abattre et brûler un arbre qui pousse de mauvais fruits, Dieu est prêt à te punir pour vos péchés »(Voir: Métaphore et Actif ou Passif )

Mais celui qui vient après moi

Jésus est la personne qui vient après Jean.

est plus puissant que moi

“Est plus important que moi”

Il vous baptisera du Saint-Esprit et de feu

Cette métaphore compare le baptême d'eau de Jean au futur baptême de feu. Cela signifie que le baptême de John nettoie symboliquement les gens de leurs péchés. Le baptême du Saint-Esprit et le feu nettoieront vraiment les gens de leurs péchés. Si possible, utilisez le mot «baptiser» dans votre traduction pour garder la comparaison avec le baptême de Jean. (Voir: métaphore )

Sa fourche de vannage est à la main pour dégager complètement son aire de battage

Cette métaphore compare la façon dont le Christ séparera les justes des injustes à la manière dont un homme sépare les grains de blé des paillettes. AT: "Le Christ est comme un homme dont la fourchette de vannage est à la main" (voir: Métaphore )

Sa fourchette de vannage est dans sa main

dégager complètement son aire de battage

Christ est comme un homme avec une fourchette de vannage qui est prête à vider son aire de battage.

son aire de battage

"Sa terre" ou "la terre où il sépare le grain de l'ivraie"

ramasser son blé dans le magasin… brûler la balle avec le feu qui ne peut jamais être mis

Ceci est une métaphore montrant comment Dieu séparera les justes des méchants. Les justes iront au ciel comme du blé dans un entrepôt de fermiers, et Dieu brûlera les gens qui sont comme des pailles avec un feu qui ne sera jamais éteint. (Voir: métaphore ) 78 traductionNotes Matthieu 3: 10-12

Selon Jean qu'arrive t-il à tout arbre qui ne produit pas de bon fruit?" Comment celui qui vient après Jean baptiserait-il?",

"Tout arbre qui ne produit pas de bon fruit est coupé et jeté au feu. " Celui qui vient après Jean les baptiserait du Saint Esprit et de feu. " }

Matthew 3:11

Selon Jean qu'arrive t-il à tout arbre qui ne produit pas de bon fruit?" Comment celui qui vient après Jean baptiserait-il?",

Matthew 3:15

"Qu'a dit Jésus pour convaincre Jean de le baptiser?",

"Jésus dit qu'il était correct pour Jean de le baptiser afin d'accomplir toute justice. "

Matthew 3:16

" Quest-ce-que Jésus a vu lorsqu'il est sorti de l'eau?" "Qu'a dit la voix sortie du ciel après le baptême de Jésus?"

"Quand il est sorti de l'eau, Jésus vit l'Esprit de Dieu descendre comme une colombe et se poser sur lui. " \"Voici mon Fils bien aimé . Il fait toute ma joie.\" "

Matthew 3:17

Chapter 3

1 En ces jours-là, Jean Baptiste arriva prêchant dans le désert de Judée disant: 2 «Repentez-vous, car le royaume des cieux est proche.» 3 Car, voici celui dont a parlé le prophet Esaïe, disant: «La voix de celui qui crie dans le désert: "préparez le chemin du Seigneur, rendez ses sentiers droits."» 4 Voici, Jean portait un manteau de poils de chameau et une ceinture de cuir autour de sa taille. Sa nourriture était des sauterelles et du miel sauvage. 5 Puis Jérusalem, toute la Judée et toute la région autour du fleuve Jourdain se rendirent vers lui. 6 Ils furent baptisés par lui dans le fleuve Jourdain, comme ils confessaient leurs péchés. 7 Mais quand il vit plusieurs des pharisiens et des sadducéens venir à lui pour le baptême, il leur dit: «Vous descendants de serpents venimeux, qui vous a averti de fuir la colère qui vient? 8 Produisez du fruit digne de repentence. 9 Et ne pensez pas à dire de vous-mêmes: "Nous avons Abraham pour père." Car je vous dis que Dieu est capable de susciter pour Abraham des enfants même de ces pierres-ci. 10 Déjà la hache est placée contre la racine des arbres. Ainsi tout arbre qui ne produit pas du bon fruit est coupé et jeté dans le feu. 11 Je vous baptise d'eau pour la repentence. Mais celui qui vient après moi est plus puissant que moi, et je ne suis même pas digne de porter ses sandales. Il vous baptisera du Saint Esprit et de feu. 12 Son van est dans sa main prête à nettoyer complètement son aire de vannage et à amasser son blé dans le grenier. Mais il brûlera la paille dans un feu qui ne peut jamais être éteint.» 13 Puis Jésus arriva de Gallilée au fleuve Jourdain pour être baptisé par Jean. 14 Mais Jean essayait continuellement de l'en empêcher, disant: «J'ai besoin d'etre baptisé par toi, et tu viens à moi?» 15 Jésus répondit et lui dit: «Permets le maintenant, car il est correct pour nous d'accomplir toute justice.» Alors Jean lui permit. 16 Après qu'il fût baptisé, Jésus sortit immédiatement de l'eau, et voici, les cieux lui furent ouverts. Il vit l' Esprit de Dieu descendre comme une colombe et se poser sur lui. 17 Voici, une voix sortit des cieux disant: «Voici mon Fils bien-aimé. Il fait toute ma joie.»

Celles-ci se réfèrent à Jésus.

quarante jours et quarante nuits

«40 jours et 40 nuits». Il s’agit de périodes de 24 heures. AT: «40 jours» (Voir: Numéros ) 85 Matthieu 4: 1-4 traductionNotes

Si vous êtes le Fils de Dieu, commandez

Il est préférable de supposer que Satan savait que Jésus est le Fils de Dieu. Les significations possibles sont 1) c'est une tentation de faire des miracles pour le propre bénéfice de Jésus. AT: "Vous êtes le Fils de Dieu, vous pouvez donc commander" ou 2) il s'agit d'un défi ou d'une accusation. AT: «Prouvez que vous êtes le Fils de Dieu en commandant»

le fils de Dieu

C'est un titre important pour Jésus qui décrit sa relation avec Dieu. (Voir: Traduire Fils et Père )

commande ces pierres pour qu'elles deviennent du pain.

Vous pouvez traduire ceci avec une citation directe. AT: «dis à ces pierres:« Deviens du pain ». ”(Voir: Offres directes et indirectes )

pain

Ici, le «pain» fait référence à la nourriture en général. AT: “food” (Voir: Synecdoche )

Il est écrit

Cela peut être indiqué sous forme active. AT: "Il y a longtemps que Moïse a écrit ceci dans les Écritures" (Voir: Actif ou Passif )

Vous ne devez pas tester

Ici, «vous» fait référence à n'importe qui. AT: "Il ne faut pas tester" ou "Personne ne doit tester"

Encore une fois, le diable

“Ensuite, le diable”

Il lui a dit

"Le diable a dit à Jésus"

Toutes ces choses que je vais vous donner

«Je vais vous donner toutes ces choses.» Le tentateur insiste ici sur le fait qu'il donnera «toutes ces choses», pas seulement certaines d'entre elles. 90 traductionNotes Matthieu 4: 7-9

tomber

«Mettez votre visage près du sol.» C'était une action commune pour montrer qu'une personne était en train de vénérer. (Voir: Action symbolique )

Matthew 4:10

Déclaration de connexion:

C'est la fin de la partie de l'histoire sur la façon dont Satan a tenté Jésus.

Informations générales:

Ce qui a été dit

Cela peut être indiqué sous forme active. AT: «ce que Dieu a dit» (voir: actif ou passif ) 96 traductionNotes Matthieu 4: 14-16

Le pays de Zebulun et le pays de Nephtali… Galilée des Gentils! Les gens qui étaient assis

Ces territoires décrivent la même zone. La liste des territoires peut être incluse dans la phrase suivante . AT: «Sur le territoire de Zabulon et de Nephtali… sur le territoire de Galilée, où vivent de nombreux païens, le peuple qui était assis»

vers la mer

C'est la mer de Galilée.

Les personnes assises dans l'obscurité ont vu une grande lumière

Ici, «l'obscurité» est une métaphore de ne pas connaître la vérité sur Dieu. Et la «lumière» est une métaphore du vrai message de Dieu qui sauve les gens de leurs péchés. (Voir: métaphore )

à ceux qui étaient assis dans la région et à l'ombre de la mort, une lumière surgit sur eux

Cela a essentiellement le même sens que la première partie de la phrase. Ici «ceux qui étaient assis dans la région et l'ombre de la mort» est une métaphore. Il représente ceux qui ne connaissaient pas Dieu. Ces gens étaient en danger de mourir et d'être séparés de Dieu pour toujours. (Voir: Parallélisme et Métaphore )

Matthew 4:17

le royaume des cieux s'est approché

L'expression «le royaume des cieux» fait référence à Dieu qui règne en tant que roi. Cette phrase est seulement dans le livre de Matthieu. Si possible, incluez un mot qui signifie «paradis» dans votre traduction. Voyez comment yo u traduit cela dans Matthieu 3: 2 . AT: «notre Dieu dans le ciel se montrera bientôt roi» (voir: métonymie )

Matthew 4:18

Informations générales:

Cela commence une nouvelle scène dans la partie de l'histoire sur le ministère de Jésus en Galilée. Ici, il commence à rassembler des hommes pour être ses disciples.

jeter un filet dans la mer

Le sens complet de cette déclaration peut être explicite. AT: «jeter un filet dans l'eau pour attraper du poisson» (Voir: Connaissance supposée et information implicite )

Viens me suivre

Jésus invite Simon et Andrew à le suivre, à vivre avec lui et à devenir ses disciples. AT: “Soyez mes disciples”

Je vais vous faire pêcheurs d'hommes

Cette métaphore signifie que Simon et Andrew enseigneront aux gens le vrai message de Dieu, alors les autres suivront aussi Jésus. AT: «Je vais vous apprendre à rassembler des hommes comme vous aviez l'habitude de ramasser des poissons» (Voir: Métaphore )

Matthew 4:21

Déclaration de connexion:

Jésus appelle plus d'hommes à être ses disciples.

Il les a appelés

"Jésus a appelé John et James." Cette phrase signifie aussi que Jésus les a invités à le suivre, à vivre avec lui et à devenir ses disciples.

ils ont immédiatement quitté

“À ce moment ils sont partis”

a quitté le bateau… et l'a suivi

Il devrait être clair que ceci est un changement de vie. Ces hommes ne vont plus être pêcheurs et quittent l'entreprise familiale pour suivre Jésus pour le restant de leurs jours.

Matthew 4:23

Déclaration de connexion:

Ceci est la fin de la partie de l'histoire du début du ministère de Jésus en Galilée. Ces versets résument ce qu'il a fait et comment les gens ont répondu. (Voir: Fin de l'histoire )

enseigner dans leurs synagogues

«Enseigner dans les synagogues des Galiléens» ou «enseigner dans les synagogues de ces personnes»

prêcher l'évangile du royaume

Ici, le «royaume» fait référence au règne de Dieu en tant que roi. AT: «prêcher la bonne nouvelle de la façon dont Dieu se montrera roi» (voir: métonymie )

maladie

est la faiblesse physique ou l'affliction résultant d'une maladie.

ceux possédés par les démons

Cela peut être indiqué sous forme active. AT: "ceux que les démons contrôlaient" (voir: actif ou passif )

l'épileptique

Cela se réfère à toute personne qui a eu l'épilepsie, pas à un épileptique en particulier. AT: «ceux qui ont parfois des crises» ou «ceux qui sont parfois devenus inconscients et ont évolué de manière incontrôlable» (voir: Phrases nominales génériques )

et paralytique

Cela se réfère à toute personne qui était paralysée, pas à un paralytique particulier. AT: "et tous ceux qui étaient paralysés" ou "et ceux qui ne pouvaient pas marcher" (Voir: Phrases nominales génériques )

la décapole

Ce nom signifie «les dix villes». C'est le nom d'une région située au sud-est de la mer de Galilée. (Voir: Comment traduire des noms )

Chapter 4

1 Alors Jésus fut emmené dans le désert par l'Esprit pour être tenté par le diable. 2 Après qu'il eut jeûné quarante jours et quarante nuits, il eut faim. 3 Le tentateur s'approcha et lui dit: « Si tu es le Fils de Dieu, ordonne que ces pierres deviennent du pain.» 4 Mais Jésus lui répondit et dit: « il est écrit, "L'homme ne vivra pas de pain seulement, mais de toute parole qui sort de la bouche de Dieu."» 5 Alors le diable le transporta dans la ville sainte et le plaça à l'endroit le plus élevé du temple 6 et lui dit: « Si tu es le Fils de Dieu, jette-toi vers le bas; car il est écrit: "Il ordonnera à ses anges de veiller sur toi" et "Ils te porteront dans leurs mains de peur que tu ne heurtes ton pied contre une pierre."» 7 Mais Jésus lui répondit: « il est encore écrit: "tu ne dois pas tenter le Seigneur ton Dieu."» 8 Le diable le transporta encore sur un lieu élevé et lui montra tous les royaumes du monde avec toute leur splendeur. 9 Il lui dit: « Je te donnerai toutes ces choses si tu te prosternes et m'adores.» 10 Alors Jésus lui dit: « va-t-en, Satan! Car il est écrit: "Tu adoreras le Seigneur ton Dieu et tu le serviras lui seul."» 11 Alors le diable le laissa et, voici, des anges vinrent et ils le servirent. 12 Quand Jésus entendit qu'on avait arrêté Jean, il se retira en Galilée. 13 Il partit de Nazareth et alla vivre à Capernaüm qui se trouve à coté de la mer de Galilée dans les territoires de Zabulon et Nephthali. 14 Ceci arriva afin que s'accomplisse ce que le prophète Esaïe avait dit: 15 « Les terres de Zabulon et de Nephtali, vers la mer, au-delà du Jourdain, Galilée des nations païennes! 16 Le peuple qui s'assit dans les ténèbres a vu une grande lumière; et sur ceux qui s'assirent dans la région et dans l'ombre de la mort, une lumière s'est levée.» 17 A partir de ce moment là, Jésus commença à prêcher et il dit: « Répentez-vous; car le royaume des cieux est proche.» 18 Comme Il marchait le long de la mer de Galilée, il vit deux frères, Simon appelé Pierre et André son frère. Ils jetaient un filet dans la mer; car ils étaient pêcheurs. 19 Jésus leur dit: « Venez, suivez- moi et je ferai de vous des pêcheurs d'hommes.» 20 Immédiatement, ils laissèrent leurs filets et le suivirent. 21 Pendant que Jésus poursuivait son chemin, il vit deux autres frères, Jacques, le fils de Zébédée, et Jean son frère. Ils étaient dans la barque avec Zébédée leur père; raccommodant leurs filets. Il les appela 22 et aussitôt, ils quittèrent la barque et leur père et le suivirent. 23 Jésus parcourut toute la Galilée, enseignant dans leurs synagogues, proclammant l'évangile du royaume et guérissant toutes sortes de maladies et infirmités parmi le peuple. 24 Sa renommée se répandit dans toute la Syrie et les gens lui amenèrent tous ceux qui étaient malades, ceux qui étaient affligés de diverses maladies et de divers tourments, ceux qui étaient possédés par des démons, les épileptiques et des paralysés; et Jésus les guérit. 25 De grandes foules le suivirent de la Galilée, de la Décapole, de Jérusalem, de la Judée et d'au-delà du Jourdain.

Ceci est un idiome. AT: "Jésus a commencé à parler" (voir: idiome )

leur a enseigné

Le mot «eux» fait référence à ses disciples. 107 Matthieu 5: 1-4 traductionNotes

le pauvre en esprit

Cela signifie quelqu'un qui est humble. AT: "ceux qui savent qu'ils ont besoin de Dieu" (voir: idiome )

car le royaume des cieux est à eux

ceux qui pleurent

Les raisons possibles pour lesquelles ils sont tristes sont 1) le péché du monde ou 2) leurs propres péchés ou 3) la mort de quelqu'un. Ne spécifiez pas le motif du deuil sauf si votre langue le requiert.

ils seront réconfortés

Cela peut être indiqué sous forme active. AT: "Dieu les consolera" (Voir: Actif ou Passif )

Cette métaphore décrit des personnes qui désirent ardemment faire ce qui est juste. AT: «ceux qui désirent vivre correctement autant qu'ils désirent manger et boire» (Voir: Métaphore )

ils seront remplis

Cela peut être indiqué sous forme active. AT: "Dieu les remplira" ou "Dieu les satisfera" (Voir: Actif ou Passif )

Ici, «voir» signifie qu'ils pourront vivre en présence de Dieu. AT: "Dieu leur permettra de vivre avec lui"

Matthew 5:9

les artisans de la paix

Ce sont les personnes qui aident les autres à avoir la paix les uns avec les autres.

car ils seront appelés fils de Dieu

Cela peut être indiqué sous forme active. AT: "car Dieu les appellera ses enfants" ou "ils seront enfants de Dieu" (Voir: Actif ou Passif )

fils de Dieu

Il est préférable de traduire «fils» par le même mot que votre langue utiliserait normalement pour désigner un fils ou un enfant humain.

Cela peut être indiqué sous forme active. AT: "les personnes que les autres traitent injustement" (voir: actif ou passif )

pour l'amour de la justice

“Parce qu'ils font ce que Dieu veut qu'ils fassent” 111 Matthieu 5: 9-10 traductionNotes

pour mon profit, BENEFICE

"Parce que tu me suis" ou parce que tu crois en moi "

Réjouis-toi et sois très heureux

«Réjouissez-vous» et «soyez très heureux» signifie presque la même chose. Jésus voulait que ses auditeurs non seulement se réjouissent, mais fassent encore plus que se réjouir si possible. (Voir: Doublet )

Matthew 5:13

Déclaration de connexion:

Jésus commence à enseigner comment ses disciples sont comme le sel et la lumière.

Tu es le sel de la terre

Les significations possibles sont 1) tout comme le sel rend la nourriture bonne, les disciples de Jésus influencent les gens du monde pour qu’ils soient bons. AT: «Vous êtes comme le sel pour les gens du monde» ou 2) tout comme le sel préserve la nourriture, les disciples de Jésus empêchent les gens de devenir totalement corrompus. AT: "Comme le sel est pour la nourriture, vous êtes pour le monde" (Voir: Métaphore )

si le sel a perdu son goût

Les significations possibles sont 1) «si le sel a perdu son pouvoir de faire des choses que le sel fait» ou 2) «si le sel a perdu sa saveur» (voir: Métaphore ).

comment peut-il être rendu salé à nouveau?

"Comment peut-il être rendu utile à nouveau?" Jésus utilise une question pour enseigner les disciples. AT: "il n'y a aucun moyen de redevenir utile." (Voir: Question et métaphore rhétoriques )

sauf pour être jeté et piétiné sous les pieds des gens

Cela peut être indiqué sous forme active. AT: "sauf que les gens le jettent dans la rue et marchent dessus" (voir: actif ou passif ) 115 Matthieu 5: 13-14 traductionNotes

Tu es la lumière du monde

Cela signifie que les disciples de Jésus apportent le message de la vérité de Dieu à toutes les personnes qui ne connaissent pas Dieu. AT: "Vous êtes comme une lumière pour les peuples du monde" (Voir: Métaphore )

Une ville située sur une colline ne peut être cachée

La nuit, quand il fait noir, les gens peuvent voir les lumières de la ville briller. Cela peut être indiqué sous forme active.

Matthew 5:15

Les gens n'allument pas non plus une lampe

“Les gens n'allument pas une lampe”

mettez-le sous un panier

"Placez la lampe sous un panier." Cela dit, il est stupide de créer de la lumière pour la cacher afin que les gens ne voient pas la lumière de la lampe.

Laissez votre lumière briller devant les gens

Cela signifie qu'un disciple de Jésus devrait vivre de telle manière que d'autres puissent apprendre la vérité de Dieu. AT: «Que votre vie soit comme une lumière qui brille devant les gens» (Voir: Métaphore )

ton père qui est au ciel

Il est préférable de traduire «Père» avec le même mot que votre langage utiliserait naturellement pour désigner un père humain.

Chapter 5

1 Quand Jésus vit ces foules, il monta sur la montagne. Lorsqu'il s'assit, ses disciples vinrent à lui. 2 Il ouvrit sa bouche et les enseigna en disant: 3 « Heureux les pauvres en esprit car le royaume des cieux est à eux. 4 Heureux ceux qui pleurent, car ils recevront le reconfort. 5 Heureux les humbles, car ils hériteront la terre. 6 Heureux ceux qui ont faim et soif de justice, car ils seront rassasiés. 7 Heureux les miséricordieux, car ils recevront miséricorde; 8 Heureux ceux qui sont purs de coeur, car ils verront Dieu. 9 Heureux les artisants de la paix, car ils seront appelés les fils de Dieu. 10 Heureux ceux qui sont persécutés à cause de la justice, car le royaume des cieux est à eux. 11 Heureux êtes-vous, si les gens vous insultent et vous persécutent, ou disent faussement toute sorte de mal contre vous à cause de moi. 12 Réjouissez-vous et soyez très heureux, car votre récompense est grande dans les cieux. Car c'est ainsi que les hommes ont persécuté les prophètes qui ont vécu avant vous. 13 Vous êtes le sel de la terre; mais si le sel perd sa saveur, comment peut-il la retrouver? Il n'est plus bon à rien, seulement d'être jeté dehors pour être piétiné par les hommes. 14 Vous êtes la lumière du monde. Une ville construite sur une montagne ne peut être cachée. 15 De même, les gens allument-ils une lampe pour la mettre sous un panier? Au contraire, ils la mettent sur un support pour qu'elle éclaire tous ceux qui sont dans la maison. 16 Ainsi que votre lumière brille devant les hommes pour qu'ils voient vos bonnes oeuvres et louent votre père qui est dans les cieux. 17 Ne pensez pas que je suis venu supprimer la loi ou les prophètes; je ne suis pas venu pour les supprimer, mais pour les accomplir. 18 En vérité, Je vous le dis, aussi lontemps que le ciel et la terre dureront, pas un seul iota ni le plus petit détail ne sera supprimé de la loi, et cela jusqu'à l'accomplissement de toutes choses. 19 C'est pourquoi celui qui brise le plus petit des commandements et enseigne aux autres à faire de même, sera le plus petit dans le royaume des cieux. Mais celui qui l'applique et l'enseigne aux autres à faire de même sera grand dans le royaume des cieux. 20 Je vous l'affirme, si votre justice n'excède pas la justice des scribes et des pharisiens, vous ne pourriez en aucun cas entrer dans le royaume des cieux. 21 Vous avez entendu qu'il a été dit à ceux des temps anciens: «Tu ne tueras pas», et: «Quiconque tue un autre est passible de jugement.» 22 Mais moi je vous dis que quiconque se met en colère contre son frère est passible de jugement; et celui qui dit à son frère: «Toi vaurien!» risquerait de comparaître devant le conseil. Et quiconque dira: «Toi sot», risquerait le feu de l'enfer. 23 De même, si tu donnes ton offrande à l'autel et que tu te souviennes que ton frère a une raison de t'en vouloir, 24 laisse-là ton offrande devant l'autel, va te réconcilier premièrement avec ton frère. Ensuite, viens et donne donne ton offrande. 25 Mets-toi d'accord rapidement avec ton accusateur, pendant que vous êtes en chemin vers le procès; sinon ton accusateur te remettra dans les mains du juge, et le juge te remettra à la police et tu seras jeté en prison. 26 En vérité, je te le dis: tu ne sortiras pas de là sans avoir payé le dernier sou que tu dois. 27 Vous avez entendu dire, «Ne commettez pas d'adultère.» 28 Mais je vous dis que quiconque regarde une femme en la désirant, a déja commis l'adultère avec elle dans son coeur. 29 Et si ton œil droit t'amène à trébucher, arrache-le et jette-le loin de toi; car il est mieux pour toi qu'une partie de ton corps périsse que tout ton corps soit jeté en enfer. 30 Et si ta main droite t'amène à trébucher, coupe-la et jette-la loin de toi; car il est mieux pour toi qu'une partie de ton corps périsse que tout ton corps soit jeté en enfer. 31 Il a été aussi dit: «Quiconque renvoit sa femme lui remette un certificat de divorce.» 32 Mais je vous dis quiconque divorce sa femme excepté pour cause d'immoralité sexuelle, fait d'elle une adultère; et quiconque la marie après son divorce commet aussi l'adultère. 33 De plus, vous avez entendu dire à nos ancêtres: «Ne faites pas de faux serments mais portez vos serments au Seigneur.» 34 Cependant, ne jurez ni par le ciel car c'est le trône de Dieu, 35 ni par la terre car c'est le marche-pied de Dieu; ni par Jérusalem car elle est la ville du grand Roi. 36 Ne jurez pas non plus par votre propre tête, car vous n'êtes pas en mesure de rendre un cheveu blanc ou noir. 37 Lorsque vous parlez, que votre parole soit juste «Oui, oui», ou «Non, non» Tout ce qui s'y ajoute vient du malin. 38 Vous avez entendu qu'il a été dit: «œil pour œil, et dent pour dent.» 39 Mais moi je vous dis, ne résistez pas à celui qui est méchant; au lieu de cela, quiconque vous giffle sur votre joue droite, tournez vers lui l'autre également. 40 Et si quelqu'un veut te faire un procès pour te prendre ta veste, laisse-le prendre aussi ton manteau. 41 Quiconque t'oblige à faire mille mètres, fais-en deux mille avec lui. 42 Donne à celui qui te demande, et ne refuse pas de prêter à celui qui désire emprunter chez toi. 43 Vous avez entendu qu'il a été dit: «Tu aimeras ton prochain et tu haïras ton ennemi.» 44 Mais moi je vous dis: «Aimez vos ennemis et priez pour ceux qui vous persécutent, [Les meilleures copies anciennes omettent: «Benissez ceux qui vous maudissent. Faites du bien à ceux qui vous haissent»] 45 ainsi vous deviendrez les fils de votre Père qui est dans les cieux. Car Il fait lever le soleil sur les méchants et sur les bons, et Il envoie la pluie sur les justes et les injustes. 46 Car si vous aimez seulement ceux qui vous aiment, quelle récompense pouvez-vous recevoir de cela? Même les collecteurs d'impôts en font autant. Vous devez faire mieux qu'eux. 47 Et si vous ne saluez que vos frères, que faites vous là de mieux que les autres? Même les païens en font autant. 48 Alors vous devez être parfaits, tout comme votre Père céleste est parfait.

L'oeil est la lampe du corps… quelle est cette obscurité

Cela compare les yeux en bonne santé qui permettent à une personne de voir à des yeux malades qui rendent une personne aveugle. Ceci est une métaphore faisant référence à la santé spirituelle. Souvent, les juifs utilisaient l'expression «mauvais œil» pour désigner la cupidité. Le sens est que si une personne est complètement dévouée à Dieu et voit ou considère les choses comme Dieu le fait, alors il fait ce qui est juste. Si une personne est avide de plus, alors il fait ce qui est mal. (Voir: métaphore )

L'oeil est la lampe du corps

Cette métaphore signifie que les yeux permettent à une personne de voir comme une lampe aide une personne à voir dans l'obscurité. AT: "Comme une lampe, l'oeil vous permet de voir les choses clairement" (Voir: Métaphore )

œil

Vous devrez peut-être traduire cela par le pluriel «yeux». 164 traductionNotes Matthieu 6: 22-24

si ton oeil est mauvais

Cela ne fait pas référence à la magie. Les juifs utilisaient souvent cela comme une métaphore pour quelqu'un qui est gourmand. (Voir: métaphore )

si la lumière qui est en vous est en réalité l'obscurité, quelle est cette obscurité!

"Si ce qui est supposé causer de la lumière dans votre corps provoque l'obscurité, alors votre corps est dans l' obscurité complète "

car soit il déteste l'un et aime l'autre, soit il se consacrera à l'un et méprisera l'autre

Ces deux expressions signifient essentiellement la même chose. Ils soulignent qu'une personne ne peut pas aimer et être dévouée à la fois à Dieu et à l'argent. (Voir: Parallélisme )

Vous ne pouvez pas servir Dieu et la richesse

"Vous ne pouvez pas aimer Dieu et l'argent en même temps"

Matthew 6:25

AT: «Rien ne peut, en vous inquiétant, ajouter des années à votre vie. Vous ne pouvez pas ajouter une minute à votre vie! Donc, vous ne devriez pas vous soucier de choses que vous besoin ». (Voir: Question et métaphore rhétoriques )

Une coudée est une mesure d'un peu moins d'un demi mètre. (Voir: Distance biblique )

Pourquoi êtes-vous inquiet au sujet des vêtements?

Jésus utilise une question pour enseigner aux gens. AT: "Ne vous inquiétez pas de ce que vous allez porter." (Voir: Question rhétorique )

Lys… Ils ne marchent pas, et ils ne font pas de chiffon… ils ne sont pas vêtus comme l'un de ces

Jésus parle des lis comme s'il s'agissait de personnes qui portaient des vêtements. Les lys vêtus sont une métaphore pour les plantes ayant des fleurs magnifiques et colorées. (Voir: Personnification et métaphore )

Je te dis

Cela met l'accent sur ce que Jésus dit ensuite.

n'était pas vêtu comme l'un de ces

Ainsi, l'herbe dans les champs

Jésus continue à parler des lis comme s’il s’agissait de gens qui portaient des vêtements. Les lys vêtus sont une métaphore pour les plantes ayant des fleurs magnifiques et colorées. (Voir: Personnification et métaphore )

herbe

Si votre langue a un mot qui inclut «herbe» et le mot que vous avez utilisé pour «lys» dans le verset précédent , vous pouvez l’utiliser ici.

est jeté dans le four

Les Juifs à cette époque utilisaient de l'herbe dans leurs feux pour cuire leur nourriture. Cela peut être indiqué sous forme active. AT: "quelqu'un le jette dans le feu" ou "quelqu'un le brûle" (Voir: Actif ou Passif )

combien plus va t'habiller… la foi?

Jésus utilise cette question pour enseigner aux gens que Dieu fournira ce dont ils ont besoin. AT: «il vous vêtira certainement… la foi» (voir: question rhétorique )

vous de peu de foi

"Toi qui as une si petite foi." Jésus s'adresse aux gens de cette façon parce que leur anxiété à propos des vêtements montre qu'ils ont peu confiance en Dieu. 170 traductionNotes Matthieu 6: 30-31

Donc

“À cause de tout ça”

Quels vêtements porterons-nous?

Dans cette phrase, «vêtements» est une synecdoche pour les possessions matérielles. AT: «Quelles possessions aurons-nous » (Voir: Synecdoche )

Matthew 6:32

Pour les gentils chercher ces choses

“Car les gentils se préoccupent de ce qu'ils vont manger, boire et porter”

ton Père céleste sait que tu en as besoin

toutes ces choses vous seront données

Cela peut être indiqué sous forme active. AT: "Dieu vous fournira toutes ces choses" (Voir: Actif ou Passif )

Donc

“À cause de tout ça” 172 traductionNotes Matthieu 6: 32-34

demain sera inquiet pour lui-même

Chapter 6

1 Garde-toi de pratiquer tes actes de justice devant les gens pour en être vu par eux, autrement tu n'auras point de récompense auprès de ton Père qui est dans les cieux. 2 Ainsi quand tu fais l'aumône, ne sonne pas la trompette devant toi, comme font les hypocrites dans les synagogues et dans les rues, afin d'être glorifiés par les hommes. En vérité, je te le dis, ils ont déjà reçu leur récompense. 3 Quant à vous, lorsque vous faites l'aumône, que votre main gauche ne sache pas ce que fait votre main droite, 4 afin que votre don soit fait en secret. Alors votre Père qui vous observe dans le secret vous récompensera. 5 Et lorsque vous priez, ne soyez pas comme les hypocrites, car ils aiment prier debout dans les synagogues et aux coins des rues, pour être vus des hommes. En vérité, je vous le dis, ils ont déjà reçu leur recompense. 6 Mais vous, quand vous priez, entrez dans votre chambre, fermez votre porte, et priez votre Père qui est dans le lieu secret; ainsi votre Père qui voit dans le secret vous recompensera. 7 Et lorsque vous priez, n'utilisez pas de vaines répétitions, comme le font les païens, parce qu'ils s'imaginent qu'ils seront exaucés en parlant beaucoup. 8 Pour cela, ne leur ressemblez pas, car votre Père sait de quoi vous aurez besoin avant que vous ne le lui demandiez. 9 Donc, priez ainsi: «Notre Père qui est dans les cieux, que ton nom soit sancticfié. 10 Que ton règne vienne. Que ta volonté soit faite sur la terre comme au ciel. 11 Donne nous aujord'hui notre pain de chaque jour. 12 Pardonne-nous nos offenses, comme nous pardonnons aussi à ceux qui nous ont causé du tord. 13 Ne nous conduis pas à la tentation, mais délivre-nous du malin.» [Car à toi appartiennent, le règne et la puissance et la gloire pour toujours, amen!] 14 Car si vous pardonnez aux gens leurs offenses, votre Père Céleste vous pardonnera aussi. 15 Mais si vous ne pardonnez pas leurs offenses, votre Père ne pardonnera non plus vos offenses. 16 De plus, lorsque vous jeûnez, ne prenez pas un air triste comme le font les hypocrites, ils changent leurs visages pour que les gens voient qu'ils jeûnent. En vérité, je vous le dis, ils ont déjà reçu leur récompense. 17 Mais vous, lorsque vous jeûnez, oignez votre tête et lavez-vous le visage, 18 afin de ne pas montrer aux gens que vous jeûnez, mais seul à votre Père qui est là dans le secret. Et votre Père, vous voyant dans le secret, vous récompensera. 19 N'amassez pas pour vous des richesses sur cette terre où les vers et la rouille les consumment, où les voleurs peuvent s'introduirent et voler. 20 Au lieu de cela, amassez-vous des richesses dans le ciel où ni ver ni rouille ne peuvent les détruire et où les voleurs ne peuvent s'y introduire et voler. 21 Car où ton trésor est, là aussi sera ton coeur. 22 L'œil est la lampe du corps. Donc si l'œil est bon, tout le corps est remplit de lumière. 23 Mais si l'œil est mauvais tout le corps est rempli par des ténèbres! Ainsi, si la lumière qui est en toi est vraiment ténèbre, combien grande est cette ténèbre? 24 Personne ne peut servir deux maîtres, car il haïra l'un et aimera l'autre, ou il sera dévoué à l'un et négligera l'autre. Vous ne pouvez servir Dieu en même temps que la richesse. 25 C'est pourquoi je vous dis, ne vous inquiétez pas pour votre vie, de ce que vous allez manger où de ce que vous allez boire (ou pour votre corps, ce que vous allez porter). Car la vie ne vaut t-elle pas mieux que la nourriture, et le corps plus que les vêtements? 26 Regardez les oiseaux du ciel! Ils ne sèment ni ne moissonnent, et n'amassent pas de récolte dans des greniers, mais votre Père céleste les nourrit. Ne valez-vous pas plus qu'eux? 27 Qui d'entre vous en se souciant peut ajouter une coudée à sa vie? 28 Alors pourquoi êtes vous soucieux pour des vêtements? Pensez aux lis des champs, comment ils poussent; ils ne travaillent, ni ne tricotent des tissus. 29 Mais je vous dis que même Salomon dans toute sa gloire n'était pas vêtu comme l'un d'eux. 30 Si Dieu habille ainsi l'herbe des champs qui est là aujourd'hui et demain sera jeté au feu, alors comment ne vous habillera-t'il pas, vous, gens de peu de foi? 31 Ne soyez donc pas soucieux en disant: «Qu'allons-nous manger?» ou, «Qu'allons-nous boire» ou, «Qu'allons-nous mettre pour nous habiller?» 32 Ces choses sont recherchées par les païens; votre Père céleste connait tous vos besoins. 33 Cherchez tout d'abord son royaume et sa justice; et toutes les autres choses vous seront accordées. 34 Ne vous inquiétez pas du lendemain, car le lendemain s'inquiètera de lui même. A chaque jour suffit sa peine.

Par leurs fruits, vous les connaîtrez

Cette métaphore fait référence aux actions d'une personne. AT: «Tout comme vous connaissez un arbre par le fruit qui pousse ça, vous connaîtrez les faux prophètes par leur comportement »(Voir: Métaphore )

Les gens rassemblent-ils… des chardons?

Jésus utilise une question pour enseigner aux gens. Les gens auraient su que la réponse est non. À: "Les gens ne rassemblent pas… des chardons." (Voir: Question rhétorique )

chaque bon arbre produit de bons fruits

Jésus continue d'utiliser la métaphore du fruit pour désigner les bons prophètes qui produisent de bonnes œuvres ou mots. (Voir: métaphore ) 187 Matthieu 7: 15-17 traductionNotes

le mauvais arbre produit de mauvais fruits

Jésus continue d'utiliser la métaphore du fruit pour désigner les mauvais prophètes qui produisent des œuvres mauvaises. (Voir: Métaphore )

Matthew 7:18

Chaque arbre qui ne produit pas de bons fruits est coupé et jeté au feu

Jésus continue d'utiliser les arbres fruitiers comme métaphore pour se référer aux faux prophètes. Ici, il ne dit que ce que arrivera aux mauvais arbres. Cela implique que la même chose arrivera aux faux prophètes. (Voir: Métaphore etconnaissance supposée et information implicite )

est coupé et jeté au feu

Cela peut être indiqué sous forme active. AT: "les gens coupent et brûlent(voir: actif ou passif )

vous les reconnaîtrez par leurs fruits

Le mot «leur» peut se référer aux prophètes ou aux arbres. Cette métaphore implique que le fruit des arbres et les actes des prophètes révèlent tous deux qu'ils sont bons ou mauvais. Si possible, traduisez ceci de telle manière qu'il puisse se référer aux arbres et aux prophètes. (Voir: métaphore )

Matthew 7:21

entrera dans le royaume des cieux

Ici, «royaume des cieux» fait référence à la règle de Dieu en tant que roi. La phrase «royaume des cieux» est utilisée seulement dans le livre de Matthieu. Si possible, gardez «paradis» dans votre traduction. AT: “vivra avec Dieu au ciel quand il se montre roi »(Voir: Métonymie )

ceux qui font la volonté de mon père qui est au ciel

"Quiconque fait ce que mon Père au ciel désire"

Père

C'est un titre important pour Dieu. (Voir: Traduire Fils et Père )

en ce jour

Jésus a dit «ce jour-là», sachant que ses auditeurs comprendraient qu'il faisait référence au jour du jugement. Vous devriez inclure «le jour du jugement» seulement si vos lecteurs ne comprendraient pas autrement. (Voir: Connaissance supposée et information implicite ) 190 traductionNotes Matthieu 7: 21-23

n'avons-nous pas prophétisé… chasser les démons… faire beaucoup de choses puissantes?

Les gens utilisent une question pour souligner qu'ils ont fait ces choses. AT: «nous avons prophétisé… nous avons conduit sur les démons… nous avons fait de nombreuses actions puissantes. »(Voir: Question rhétorique )

nous

Ce «nous» n'inclut pas Jésus. (Voir: «Nous» exclusifs et inclusifs )

en ton nom

Les significations possibles sont 1) «par votre autorité» ou «par votre pouvoir» ou 2) «parce que nous faisions ce que vous vouliez que nous fassions »ou 3)« parce que nous vous avons demandé le pouvoir de le faire »(voir: Métonymie )

actions puissantes

“Miracles”

Je ne t'ai jamais connu

Cela signifie que la personne n'appartient pas à Jésus. AT: "Vous n'êtes pas mon suiveur" ou "Je n'ai rien faire avec vous ”(voir: idiome )

Matthew 7:24

Donc

"Pour cette raison"

mes mots

Ici, «mots» se réfère à ce que Jésus dit. (Voir: métonymie )

comme un sage qui a construit sa maison sur un rocher

Jésus compare ceux qui obéissent à ses paroles à une personne qui construit sa maison où rien ne peut lui faire du mal (Voir: Simile )

Roche

Il s’agit de la roche sous la terre arable et de l’argile, et non d’une grosse pierre ou d’un rocher au-dessus du sol.

il a été construit

Cela peut être indiqué sous forme active. AT: «il l'a construit» (voir: actif ou passif )

Matthew 7:26

Déclaration de connexion:

C'est la fin du sermon de Jésus sur la montagne, qui a commencé dans Matthieu 5: 3 .

comme un homme insensé qui a construit sa maison sur le sable

Jésus continue la comparaison du verset précédent. Il compare ceux qui n'obéissent pas à ses mots aux constructeurs de maison idiots. Seul un imbécile construirait une maison dans un endroit sablonneux où la pluie, les inondations et le vent peut balayer le sable. (Voir: Simile )

est tombée

Utilisez le mot général dans votre langue qui décrit ce qui se passe lorsqu'une maison tombe en panne.

sa destruction était complète

La pluie, les inondations et le vent ont complètement détruit la maison.

Matthew 7:28

Informations générales:

Ces versets décrivent comment les gens dans la foule ont réagi à l'enseignement de Jésus dans le sermon sur la montagne. (Voir: Fin de l'histoire )

C'est arrivé quand

Cette phrase déplace l'histoire des enseignements de Jésus à ce qui s'est passé ensuite. AT: "Quand" ou "Après"

ont été étonnés par son enseignement

Il est clair dans 7:29 qu’ils ont été surpris non seulement par ce que Jésus a enseigné, mais aussi par la manière dont il l’a enseigné. AT: «ont été surpris par la manière dont il a enseigné»

Chapter 7

1 «Ne jugez point et vous ne serez point jugés. 2 Car on vous jugera du jugement dont vous jugez; et avec la mesure que vous utilisez pour mesurer, cette même mesure sera utilisée pour vous. 3 Et pourquoi regardes-tu le brin de paille qui est dans l'oeil de ton frère, mais tu ne remarques pas la poutre qui est dans ton oeil? 4 Comment peux-tu dire à ton frère: ''Laisse-moi enlever la paille dans ton oeil", or toi tu as une poutre dans ton oeil? 5 Hypocrite! Enlève d'abord la poutre dans ton oeil et alors tu verras assez clair pour enlever la paille de l'oeil de ton frère. 6 Ne donnez pas ce qui est saint aux chiens et ne jetez pas vos perles devant les porcs; autrement, ils pourraient les piétiner, puis se retourner et vous déchirer en morceaux. 7 Demandez et il vous sera donné; Cherchez, et vous trouverez; frappez, et on vous ouvrira. 8 Car quiconque demande reçoit; et quiconque cherche trouve; et à la personne qui frappe, il sera ouvert. 9 Y aurait-il parmi vous quelqu'un qui, si son fils lui demande un morceau de pain, il lui donnerait une pierre? 10 Ou s'il demande du poisson, il lui donnerait un serpent? 11 Ainsi, si mauvais que vous êtes, vous savez donner de bonnes choses à vos enfants, à combien plus forte raison votre Père céleste ne donnerait-il de bonnes choses à ceux qui les lui demandent? 12 Donc, tout ce que vous voulez que les gens fassent pour vous, vous devez aussi le leur faire; car c'est la loi et les prophètes. 13 Entrez par la porte étroite, car large est la porte et spacieux est le chemin qui mène à la destruction, et il y a plusieurs personnes qui passent par là. 14 Car étroite est la porte et étroit est le chemin qui mènent à la vie et il y a peu de gens qui le trouvent. 15 Gardez-vous des faux prophètes qui viennent à vous déguisés en brebis, mais qui sont en réalité des loups affamés. 16 Vous les reconnaitrez par leurs fruits. Cueille-t-on du raisin sur des buissons d'épines ou des figues sur les chardons? 17 De même, tout bon arbre produit du bon fruit, mais l'arbre mauvais produit du mauvais fruit. 18 Un bon arbre ne peut pas produire de mauvais fruits, ni un mauvais arbre produire de bons fruits. 19 Tout arbre qui ne produit pas de bons fruits est coupé et jeté dans le feu. 20 De même, vous les reconnaitrez par leurs fruits. 21 Ce ne sont pas tous ceux qui me disent: "Seigneur, Seigneur," qui entreront dans le royaume des cieux, mais seulement ceux qui font la volonté de mon Père qui est dans les cieux. 22 Beaucoup de gens me diront en ce jour là, "Seigneur, Seigneur, n'avons-nous pas prophétisé en ton nom, chassé les démons en ton nom et fait beaucoup de choses extraordinaires en ton nom? " 23 Alors je leur dirai ouvertement: "Je ne vous ai jamais connus! Eloignez-vous de moi, vous qui commettez le mal! " 24 Ainsi, quiconque écoute mes paroles et les met en pratique sera comme un homme sage qui construit sa maison sur un roc. 25 La pluie est tombée, il y a eu inondation et les vents ont soufflé sur cette maison; mais elle ne s' est pas écroulé, car elle était construite sur le roc. 26 Mais toute personne qui écoute mes paroles et ne les met pas en pratique sera comme un homme insensé qui a construit sa maison sur le sable. 27 La pluie est tombée, il y a eu inondation, le vent a soufflé et elle s'est écroulée et a été totalement détruite.» 28 Il arriva que lorsque Jésus eût fini de dire ces paroles, la foule était très impressionnée par son enseignement, 29 car il les enseignait comme quelqu'un qui a de l'autorité et non comme les scribes.

Immédiatement il a été nettoyé

"A ce moment, il a été nettoyé"

il a été nettoyé de sa lèpre

Le résultat de Jésus disant «Sois pur» était que l'homme était guéri. Cela peut être indiqué dans actif forme. AT: "il allait bien" ou "la lèpre l'a quitté" ou "la lèpre a pris fin" (voir: actif ou passif )

Matthew 8:4

à lui

Cela se réfère à l'homme que Jésus vient de guérir.

ne rien dire à aucun homme

"Ne dites rien à personne" ou "Ne dites à personne que je vous ai guéri"

montrez-vous au prêtre

La loi juive exigeait que la personne montre sa peau guérie au prêtre, qui lui permettrait alors ou elle doit retourner dans la communauté, être avec d'autres personnes. (Voir: Connaissance supposée et implicite Informations )

offrir le cadeau que Moïse a commandé, pour leur témoigner

La loi de Moïse exigeait que quelqu'un, guéri de la lèpre, offre une offrande de grâce au prêtre. Lorsque le prêtre a accepté le cadeau, les gens savaient que l'homme avait été guéri. Les lépreux étaient ostracisés, bannis de la communauté, jusqu'à ce qu'ils aient la preuve de leur guérison. (Voir: Assume Connaissance et information implicite )

pour eux

Cela peut éventuellement se référer à 1) les prêtres ou 2) à toutes les personnes ou 3) aux critiques de Jésus. Si possible, utilisez un pronom qui pourrait se référer à l'un de ces groupes. (Voir: Pronoms ) 200 traductionNotes Matthieu 8: 4

Matthew 8:5

sous mon toit

Ceci est un idiome qui se réfère à l'intérieur de la maison. AT: «chez moi» (voir: idiome )

dire le mot

Ici, «mot» représente une commande. AT: «donner le commandement» (voir: métonymie )

sera guéri

Cela peut être indiqué sous forme active. AT: "va bien" (Voir: Actif ou Passif )

qui est placé sous l'autorité

Cela peut être indiqué sous forme active. AT: "qui est sous l'autorité de quelqu'un d'autre" (voir: actif ou passif )

Je vous le dis en vérité

"Je vous dis la vérité." Cette phrase met l'accent sur ce que Jésus dit ensuite.

Je n'ai trouvé personne avec une telle foi en Israël

Les auditeurs de Jésus auraient pensé que les Juifs en Israël, qui prétendent être des enfants de Dieu, auraient une foi plus grande que quiconque. Jésus dit qu'ils ont tort et que la foi du centurion était plus grande. (Voir: Connaissance supposée et information implicite )

Matthew 8:11

toi

Ici, «vous» est pluriel et fait référence à «ceux qui le suivaient» dans Matthieu 8:10 . (Voir: formes de vous )

Utiliser les opposés «est» et «ouest» est une façon de dire «partout». AT: «de partout» ou «de loin dans toutes les directions» (voir: Merism )

incliner à la table

Les gens de cette culture allaient se coucher à côté de la table en mangeant. Cette phrase indique que tous ceux qui sont à la table sont des membres de la famille et des amis proches. On parle souvent de la joie dans le royaume de Dieu comme si les gens se régalaient. AT: «vivre en famille et entre amis» (voir: métonymie )

dans le royaume des cieux

Ici, «royaume des cieux» fait référence à la règle de Dieu en tant que roi. L'expression «royaume des cieux» n'est utilisée que dans le livre de Matthieu.

les fils du royaume seront jetés

Cela peut être indiqué sous forme active. AT: "Dieu jettera les fils du royaume" (Voir: Actif ou Passif )

les fils du royaume

L'expression «fils de» est un métonymie, se référant aux Juifs non croyants du royaume de Judée. Il y a aussi de l'ironie ici parce que les «fils» seront jetés alors que les étrangers seront les bienvenus. AT: "ceux qui auraient dû permettre à Dieu de régner sur eux" (Voir: Metonymy and Irony )

Ici, la scène change de lieu et de temps et parle de Jésus guérissant une autre personne.

Jésus était venu

Les disciples étaient probablement avec Jésus, mais le sujet de l'histoire est ce que Jésus a dit et fait, alors présentez les disciples seulement si nécessaire pour éviter une mauvaise signification.

La belle-mère de Peter

“La mère de l'épouse de Peter”

la fièvre l'a laissée

Si votre langage comprendrait que cette personnification signifie que la fièvre pourrait penser et agir seule, cela peut se traduire par «elle est devenue meilleure» ou «Jésus l'a guérie» (voir: Personnification ).

s'est levé

"sortir du lit"

Matthew 8:16

Déclaration de connexion:

Ici, la scène se déplace plus tard dans la soirée et raconte que Jésus a guéri plus de monde et chassé les démons.

Informations générales:

Au verset 17, Matthieu cite le prophète Isaïe pour montrer que le ministère de guérison de Jésus était l'accomplissement de la prophétie.

Quand le soir était venu

Parce que les Juifs ne travaillaient pas ou ne voyageaient pas le jour du sabbat, le «soir» peut impliquer après le sabbat. Ils attendu jusqu'au soir pour amener les gens à Jésus. Vous n'avez pas besoin de mentionner le sabbat à moins que vous ayez besoin d'éviter une mauvaise signification. (Voir: Connaissance supposée et information implicite )

beaucoup qui étaient possédés par des démons

Cela peut être indiqué sous forme active. AT: «beaucoup de gens que possédaient les démons» ou «beaucoup de gens contrôlés par les démons» (voir: actifs ou passifs )

Matthew 8:18

Déclaration de connexion:

Ici, la scène change et raconte la réponse de Jésus à certaines personnes qui voulaient le suivre.

À présent

Ce mot est utilisé ici pour marquer une rupture dans le scénario principal. Ici, Matthew commence à raconter une nouvelle partie de l'histoire.

il a donné des instructions

“Il a dit à ses disciples”

alors

Cela signifie qu'après que Jésus "a donné des instructions" mais avant qu'il puisse entrer dans le bateau.

partout où

à n'importe quel endroit

Les renards ont des trous et les oiseaux du ciel ont des nids

Jésus répond avec ce proverbe. Cela signifie que même les animaux sauvages ont un endroit où se reposer. (Voir: Proverbes ) 213 Matthieu 8: 18-20 TraductionNotes

Renards

Les renards sont des animaux comme les chiens. Ils mangent des oiseaux nicheurs et d'autres petits animaux. Si les renards sont inconnus dans votre région, utilisez un terme général pour désigner les créatures ressemblant à des chiens ou d'autres animaux à fourrure. (Voir: Traduire Inconnus )

des trous

Les renards font des trous dans le sol pour y vivre. Utilisez le mot approprié pour l'endroit où l'animal que vous utilisez pour les «renards» vit.

le fils de l'homme

Jésus parle de lui-même. (Voir: Première, deuxième ou troisième personne )

nulle part où se coucher

Cela fait référence à un endroit où dormir. AT: "Pas de place pour dormir" (Voir: Idiom )

Matthew 8:21

Permettez-moi d'abord d'aller enterrer mon père

Il est difficile de savoir si le père de l'homme est décédé et il va l'enterrer immédiatement, ou si l'homme veut rester plus longtemps jusqu'à la mort de son père pour pouvoir ensuite l'enterrer. Le point principal est que l'homme veut faire autre chose avant de suivre Jésus.

laisser les morts enterrer leurs propres morts

Jésus ne veut pas dire littéralement que des personnes mortes enterreront d'autres personnes mortes. Significations possibles de «les morts»: 1) c'est une métaphore pour ceux qui vont bientôt mourir, ou 2) c'est une métaphore pour ceux qui ne suivent pas Jésus et sont spirituellement morts. Le point principal est qu'un disciple ne doit rien laisser le suivre de suivre Jésus. (Voir: métaphore )

Matthew 8:23

Déclaration de connexion:

Ici, la scène se déplace sur le compte de Jésus apaisant une tempête alors que lui et ses disciples traversent la mer de Galilée.

entré dans un bateau

«Monté sur un bateau»

ses disciples le suivirent

Essayez d'utiliser les mêmes mots pour «disciple» et «suivez» que vous avez utilisés ( Matthieu 8: 21-22 ).

Voir

Cela marque le début d'un autre événement dans la grande histoire. Votre langue peut avoir un moyen de le montrer. AT: «soudainement» ou «sans avertissement»

il y a eu une grande tempête sur la mer

Cela peut être indiqué sous forme active. AT: "une tempête puissante a surgi sur la mer" (voir: active ou passive )

pour que le bateau soit couvert de vagues

Cela peut être indiqué sous forme active. AT: «pour que les vagues couvrent le bateau» (voir: active ou passive ) 216 traductionNotes Matthieu 8: 23-25

le réveilla en disant: «Sauve-nous

Les significations possibles sont 1) elles ont d'abord réveillé Jésus, puis elles ont dit «sauve-nous» ou 2) alors qu'elles réveillaient Jésus, elles disaient «sauve-nous».

nous nous

Si vous avez besoin de traduire ces mots comme inclusifs ou exclusifs, l'inclusion est la meilleure. Les disciples ont probablement voulu dire qu'ils voulaient que Jésus sauve les disciples et lui-même de la noyade. (Voir: Inclusive “Nous” )

nous allons mourir

"nous allons mourir"

Matthew 8:26

pour eux

“Aux disciples”

Pourquoi as-tu peur… la foi?

Jésus réprimandait les disciples avec cette question rhétorique. AT: "N'ayez pas peur… la foi!" Ou "Il n'y a rien que vous ayez peur de… la foi!" (Voir: Question rhétorique )

vous de peu de foi

«Vous qui avez peu de foi.» Jésus s’adresse ainsi à ses disciples parce que leur inquiétude à propos de la tempête montre qu’ils ont peu confiance en lui pour le contrôler. Voyez comment vous avez traduit cela dans Matthew 06h30 .

Quel genre d'homme est-ce, que même les vents et la mer lui obéissent?

«Même les vents et la mer lui obéissent! Quelle sorte d'homme est-ce? »Cette question rhétorique montre que les disciples ont été surpris. AT: «Cet homme ne ressemble à aucun homme que nous ayons jamais vu! Même le vent et les vagues lui obéissent! »(Voir: Question rhétorique )

même les vents et la mer lui obéissent

Obéir ou désobéir à des personnes ou à des animaux n’est pas surprenant, mais il est très surprenant d’ obéir au vent et à l’eau . Cette personnification décrit les éléments naturels comme pouvant entendre et répondre comme des personnes. (Voir: Personnification ) 218 traductionNotes Matthieu 8: 26-27

Matthew 8:28

Déclaration de connexion:

Ici, l'auteur revient sur le thème de Jésus guérissant les gens. Cela commence un récit de Jésus guérissant deux hommes possédés par des démons.

de l'autre côté

«De l'autre côté de la mer de Galilée»

pays des Gadarenes

Les Gadarenes ont été nommés d'après la ville de Gadara. (Voir: Comment traduire des noms )

deux hommes qui étaient possédés par des démons

Cela peut être indiqué sous forme active. AT: «deux hommes que possédaient les démons» ou «deux hommes que contrôlaient les démons» (voir: actifs ou passifs )

Ils… étaient très violents, de sorte qu'aucun voyageur ne pouvait passer par là

Les démons qui contrôlaient ces deux hommes étaient si dangereux que personne ne pouvait traverser cette zone. 220 traductionNotes Matthieu 8: 28-29

Voir

Cela marque le début d'un autre événement dans la grande histoire. Votre langue peut avoir un moyen de le montrer.

Que devons-nous faire avec vous, Fils de Dieu?

Les démons utilisent une question mais ils sont hostiles envers Jésus. AT: «Ne nous dérange pas, Fils de Dieu!» (Voir: Question rhétorique )

Fils de Dieu

C'est un titre important pour Jésus, qui décrit sa relation avec Dieu. (Voir: Traduire Fils et Père )

Es-tu venu ici pour nous tourmenter avant l'heure fixée?

Encore une fois, les démons utilisent une question de manière hostile. AT: «Vous ne devez pas désobéir à Dieu en punissant nous avant le moment précis que Dieu a fixé lorsqu'il nous punira! »(Voir: question rhétorique )

Matthew 8:30

À présent

Ce mot est utilisé ici pour marquer une rupture dans le scénario principal. Ici, Matthew raconte des informations de base sur un troupeau de porcs qui étaient là avant l'arrivée de Jésus. (Voir: Informations générales )

Si tu nous rejettes

Il est sous-entendu que les démons savaient que Jésus allait les chasser. AT: «Parce que vous allez nous rejeter» (Voir: Connaissance supposée et information implicite )

nous

Ceci est exclusif, signifiant seulement les démons. (Voir: «Nous» exclusifs et inclusifs )

pour eux

Cela fait référence aux démons à l'intérieur des hommes.

Les démons sont sortis et sont entrés dans les cochons

"Les démons ont quitté l'homme et sont entrés dans les cochons"

“Leur région”

Chapter 8

1 Lorsque Jésus descendit de la montagne, une grande foule le suivit. 2 Voici, un lépreux vint et se prosterna devant lui disant: «Seigneur, si tu le veux tu peux me rendre pur.» 3 Jésus étendit sa main et le toucha en disant: «Je le veux, sois pur.» Immédiatement, il fut purifié de sa lèpre. 4 Jésus lui dit: «Garde-toi de parler à qui que ce soit. Va et présente-toi au sacrificateur et offre le sacrifice que Moise a ordonné pour leur servir de témoignage.» 5 Lorsque Jésus fut entré à Capernaum, un centenier l'aborda. 6 Il le supplia en disant: «Seigneur, mon serviteur est couché à la maison atteint de paralysie et il souffre beaucoup.» 7 Jésus lui dit: «J'irai chez toi et je le guérirai.» 8 Mais le centenier lui répondit: «Seigneur, je ne suis pas digne que tu entres sous mon toit, mais dis seulement un mot et mon serviteur sera guéri. 9 Car moi aussi je suis un homme placé sous une autorité, et j'ai des soldats que je commande. Je dis à celui-ci "va", et il va; et à un autre "viens", et il vient. Et à mon serviteur "fais ceci", et il le fait.» 10 Après l' avoir entendu, Jésus fut étonné et il dit à ceux qui le suivaient: «Je vous le dis en vérité, je n' ai trouvé personne avec une telle foi en Israël. 11 Je vous le dis, plusieurs viendront de l'Est et de l'Ouest et ils seront assis à table avec Abraham, Isaac et Jacob dans le royaume des cieux. 12 Mais les fils du royaume seront jetés dehors dans le noir, où il y aura des pleurs et des grincements de dents.» 13 Jésus dit au centenier: «Va! Comme tu as cru, qu'il te soit fait ainsi.» Et le serviteur fut guéri à cette même heure. 14 Quand Jésus arriva dans la maison de Pierre, il vit la belle-mère de Pierre couchée souffrant de fièvre. 15 Jésus lui toucha la main et la fièvre la quitta. Alors, elle se leva et commença à le servir. 16 Lorsque le soir fut venu, les gens amenèrent à Jésus plusieurs personnes tourmentées par des démons, et d'une seule parole, il chassa les esprits, et guérit tous ceux qui étaient malades. 17 Par ceci, s'accomplit ce qui avait été dit par le Prophète Esaïe: «Il prit lui même nos maladies et se chargea de nos infirmités.» 18 Lorsque Jésus vit la foule qui l'entourait, il donna l'instruction de passer de l'autre côté de la mer de Galilée. 19 Puis un scribe vint à lui et dit: «Maître, je te suivrai partout où tu iras.» 20 Jésus lui répondit: «Les renards ont des terriers et les oiseaux du ciel ont des nids, mais le Fils de l'Homme n'a nulle part où reposer sa tête.» 21 Un autre des disciples lui dit: «Seigneur, permets-moi d'abord d'aller enterrer mon père.» 22 Mais Jésus lui dit: «Suis-moi et laisse les morts enterrer leurs morts.» 23 Quand Jésus monta dans une barque, ses disciples le suvirent. 24 Voici, une grande tempête se leva sur la mer, si bien que la barque fut recouverte par les vagues; mais Jésus dormait. 25 Les disciples vinrent à lui et le réveillèrent en disant: «Sauve-nous, Seigneur; nous sommes sur le point de mourir!» 26 Jésus leur dit: «Pourquoi avez vous peur, gens de peu de foi?» Puis, il se leva et parla sévèrement au vent et à la mer; et il y eu un grand calme. 27 Les hommes furent remplis d'étonnement et dirent: « Quel est ce genre d'homme, pour que même les vents et la mer lui obéissent?» 28 Lorsque Jésus fut arrivé de l'autre côté dans le territoire des Gadaréniens, deux hommes controlés par les démons vinrent à sa rencontre. Ils sortaient des sépulcres et étaient d'une telle violence, qu' aucun voyageur ne pouvait passer par là. 29 Voici, ils se mirent à crier et dirent: «Qu'avons-nous à faire avec toi, Fils de Dieu? Es-tu venu ici pour nous tourmenter avant le moment fixé?» 30 Il y avait, non très loin de là, un grand troupeau de porcs qui se nourrissaient. 31 Les démons ne cessèrent d'implorer Jésus en disant: «Si tu veux nous chasser, envoie-nous plutôt dans ce troupeau de porcs.» 32 Jésus leur dit: «Allez!» Les démons sortirent et rentrèrent dans les porcs; et voici, tout le troupeau se précipita du haut de la falaise dans la mer et périt dans l'eau. 33 Les hommes qui gardaient les porcs s'enfuirent, se rendirent dans la ville et rapportèrent tout, particulièrement ce qui était arrivé aux hommes qui étaient contrôlés par les démons. 34 Voici, tous les habitants de la ville sortirent à la rencontre de Jésus. Quand ils le virent, ils le supplièrent de quitter leur région.

Jésus savait ce qu'ils pensaient soit surnaturellement, soit parce qu'il pouvait les voir se parler .

Pourquoi penses-tu du mal dans tes cœurs?

Jésus a utilisé cette question pour réprimander les scribes. (Voir: question rhétorique ) 229 Matthieu 9: 3-6 traductionNotes

mal

C'est un mal moral ou une méchanceté, pas simplement une erreur de fait.

dans vos coeurs

Ici, les «coeurs» se réfèrent à leurs esprits ou à leurs pensées. (Voir: métonymie )

Pour qui est plus facile de dire: «Vos péchés sont pardonnés» ou de dire «Lève-toi et marche»?

Jésus utilise cette question pour amener les scribes à réfléchir à ce qui pourrait prouver s'il pouvait vraiment pardonner les péchés. AT: «Je viens de dire 'Vos péchés sont pardonnés.' Vous pensez peut-être qu'il est plus difficile de dire «Lève-toi et marche», car la preuve que je peux guérir ou non l'homme sera de savoir si ou pas, il se lève et marche. »ou« Vous pensez peut-être qu'il est plus facile de dire «Vos péchés sont pardonnés» que de dire «Lève-toi et marche». ”(Voir: Question rhétorique )

Informations générales:

Ces événements se produisent chez Matthew, le percepteur.

Quand Jésus a entendu cela

Ici, «cela» fait référence à la question que les pharisiens ont posée à propos de Jésus mangeant avec les collecteurs d'impôts et les pécheurs.

Les personnes qui sont fortes dans le corps n'ont pas besoin d'un médecin, seulement celles qui sont malades

Jésus répond par un proverbe. Il veut dire qu'il mange avec ce genre de personnes parce qu'il est venu pour aider les pécheurs. (Voir: Proverbes )

Les gens qui sont forts dans le corps

«Les gens en bonne santé»

ceux qui sont malades

L'expression «besoin d'un médecin» est comprise. AT: «les personnes malades ont besoin d'un médecin» (voir: Ellipsis ) 236 traductionNotes Matthieu 9: 12-13

Jésus utilise l'ironie. Il ne pense pas qu'il y ait des gens qui soient justes et qui n'ont pas besoin de se repentir. AT: "ceux qui pensent qu'ils sont justes" (Voir: Ironie )

Matthew 9:14

Déclaration de connexion:

Les disciples de Jean-Baptiste remettent en question le fait que les disciples de Jésus ne jeûnent pas.

ne jeûne pas

«Continuer à manger régulièrement»

Les préposés au mariage peuvent-ils être tristes alors que le marié est toujours avec eux?

Jésus utilise une question pour répondre aux disciples de Jean. Ils savaient tous que les gens ne pleurent pas et rapidement lors d'une fête de mariage. Jésus utilise ce proverbe pour montrer que ses disciples ne pleurent pas parce que il est toujours là avec eux. (Voir: question rhétorique et proverbes )

les jours viendront où

C'est une manière de faire référence à un moment dans le futur. AT: "le moment viendra où" ou "un jour"

Cela peut être indiqué sous forme active. AT: "l'époux ne pourra plus être avec eux" ou "quelqu'un leur enlèvera l'époux" (voir: actif ou passif ) 238 traductionNotes Matthieu 9: 14-15

sera enlevé

Jésus fait probablement référence à sa propre mort, mais cela ne devrait pas être explicité ici dans la traduction. Pour conserver l’image d’un mariage, il est préférable de préciser que l’époux ne sera pas là plus longtemps

Matthew 9:16

Déclaration de connexion:

Jésus continue de répondre à la question posée par les disciples de Jean . Il l'a fait en donnant deux exemples de choses anciennes et de nouvelles choses que les gens ne mettent pas ensemble.

Aucun homme ne met un morceau de tissu neuf sur un vieux vêtement

"Personne ne coud un morceau de tissu neuf sur un vêtement ancien" ou "Les gens ne cousent pas un morceau de tissu neuf comme un patch d'un vieux vêtement"

un vieux vêtement… le vêtement

“Vieux vêtements… les vêtements”

le patch va arracher le vêtement

Si quelqu'un devait laver le vêtement, le morceau de tissu nouveau se rétrécirait, mais le vieux vêtement ne rétrécirait pas. Cela détacherait la pièce du vêtement et laisserait un trou plus grand.

le patch

“Le morceau de tissu neuf.” C'est le morceau de tissu utilisé pour couvrir un trou dans l'ancien vêtement.

Cela peut être indiqué sous forme active. AT: "cela va aggraver la déchirure" (voir: actif ou passif ) 240 traductionNotes Matthew 9:16

Matthew 9:17

Déclaration de connexion:

Jésus continue à répondre à la question posée par les disciples de Jean.

Les gens ne mettent pas non plus de vin nouveau dans de vieilles outres

Jésus utilise un autre proverbe pour répondre aux disciples de Jean. Cela signifie la même chose que le proverbe dans Matthieu 9:16 .

Les gens ne mettent pas non plus

"Personne ne verse" ou "Les gens ne mettent jamais"

nouveau vin

Cela fait référence au vin qui n'a pas encore fermenté. Si les raisins sont inconnus dans votre région, utilisez le terme général pour les fruits. AT: “jus de raisin” (Voir: Traduire les Inconnus )

vieilles outres

Cela concerne les outres qui ont été étirées et séchées car elles étaient déjà utilisées pour la fermentation du vin.

des outres

«Sacs à vin» ou «sacs à peau». Il s’agissait de sacs fabriqués à partir de peaux d’animaux. 242 traductionNotes Matthew 9:17

le vin sera renversé et les outres seront détruites

Cela peut être indiqué sous forme active. AT: "et cela va ruiner les outres et renverser le vin" (voir: actif ou passif )

les peaux vont éclater

Lorsque le nouveau vin est mis à fermenter et se dilate, les peaux se déchirent en s'épuisant .

des outres fraîches

«Nouvelles outres» ou «nouveaux sacs à vin». Il s’agit des outres que personne n’a utilisées.

les deux seront préservés

Cela peut être indiqué sous forme active. AT: «cela gardera à la fois les outres et le vin» (voir: actif ou passif )

Matthew 9:18

“Sa robe” ou “ce qu'il portait” 246 traductionNotes Matthieu 9: 20-22

Car elle se disait: «Si seulement je touche ses vêtements, je serai bien fait.

Elle se dit cela avant de toucher le vêtement de Jésus. Cela explique pourquoi elle a touché le vêtement de Jésus. (Voir: Ordre des événements et ponts versets )

Si seulement je touche ses vêtements

Selon la loi juive, comme elle saignait, elle ne devait toucher personne. Elle touche ses vêtements pour que le pouvoir de Jésus la guérisse et pourtant (elle pensait) il ne saurait pas qu'elle l'a touché. (Voir: Connaissance supposée et information implicite )

Mais Jésus

"La femme espérait pouvoir le toucher secrètement, mais Jésus"

La femme n'était pas la vraie fille de Jésus. Jésus lui parlait poliment. Si cela prête à confusion, cela peut aussi être traduit par «jeune femme» ou même omis.

la fille n'est pas morte, mais elle dort

Jésus utilise un jeu de mots. Au temps de Jésus, il était courant de parler d'une personne morte qui «dort». Mais ici, la fille morte se lèvera, comme si elle ne dormait que. (Voir: Euphémisme )

Matthew 9:25

Ceci complète le récit de Jésus qui ramène la fille du fonctionnaire juif à la vie.

Ayez pitié de nous

Il est sous-entendu qu'ils voulaient que Jésus les guérisse. (Voir: Connaissance supposée et information implicite )

Fils de David

Jésus n'était pas le fils littéral de David, donc cela peut être traduit par «Descendant de David». Cependant, «Fils de David» est aussi un titre pour le Messie, et les hommes appelaient probablement Jésus par ce titre. 251 Matthieu 9: 27-28 TraductionNotes

Quand Jésus était entré dans la maison

Cela pourrait être soit la maison de Jésus, soit la maison dans Matthieu 9:10

Oui Seigneur

Le contenu intégral de leur réponse n'est pas indiqué, mais il est compris. AT: "Oui, Seigneur, nous croyons que tu peux nous guérir" (Voir: Ellipsis )

Matthew 9:29

touché leurs yeux et dit

Il n'est pas clair s'il a touché les deux yeux des hommes en même temps ou utilisé seulement sa main droite pour toucher l'un et l'autre. Comme la main gauche était habituellement utilisée à des fins impures, il est fort probable qu’il n’a utilisé que sa main droite. Il n'est pas clair non plus s'il a parlé comme il touchait les ou les a touché en premier et ensuite leur a parlé.

Chapter 9

1 Jésus monta dans une barque, alla de l'autre côté, et se rendit dans sa propre ville. 2 Voici, ils lui amenèrent un homme paralysé, couché sur une natte. Voyant leur foi, Jésus dit à l'homme paralysé: «Mon fils, prends courage; tes péchés ont été pardonnés.» 3 Certains des scribes dirent en eux-mêmes: «Cet homme blasphème.» 4 Jésus su leurs pensées et dit: «Pourquoi avez-vous des pensées mauvaises dans vos coeurs? 5 Quoi de plus aisé que de dire: ''Tes péchés te sont pardonnés'' ou de dire ''Lèves-toi et marches? " 6 Mais, afin que vous sachiez que le Fils de l'Homme a l'autorité sur la terre de pardonner les péchés,...» Il dit au paralytique: «Lèves-toi, prends ta natte, et va dans ta maison.» 7 Ensuite l'homme se leva et alla dans sa maison. 8 Quand la foule vit cela, elle était émerveillé et glorifia Dieu qui a donné une telle autorité aux hommes. 9 Jésus passant par là vit un homme appelé Matthieu, qui était assis au bureau des collecteurs d'impôt. Il lui dit: «Suis-moi.» Il se leva et le suivit. 10 Jésus s'étant assis dans la maison pour manger; voici, beaucoup de collecteurs d'impôts et des gens de mauvaise vie vinrent dîner avec lui et ses disciples. 11 Quand les pharisiens virent cela, ils dirent à ses disciples: «Pourquoi votre maître mange-t-il avec des collecteurs d'impôt et des gens de mauvaise vie?» 12 Quand Jésus entendit cela, il dit: «Les gens qui sont en bonne santé n'ont pas besoin de médecin, seuls ceux qui sont malades. 13 Allez et apprenez ce que signifie ceci: ''Je prends plaisir à la miséricorde et non aux sacrifices" car je suis venu, non pas pour appeler les justes à la repentance, mais plutôt les pécheurs.» 14 Puis les disciples de Jean vinrent à lui et dirent: «Pourquoi, nous ainsi que les pharisiens jeûnons souvent, mais tes disciples ne le font pas?» 15 Jésus leur dit: «Les invités à un mariage peuvent-ils être tristes quand le marié est toujours avec eux? mais les jours viendront où le marié leur sera enlevé et alors, ils jeûneront. 16 Personne ne met une pièce d'étoffe neuve sur un vieux vêtement, car la nouvelle tirera sur le vêtement, et la déchirure s'agrandira encore plus. 17 On ne verse non plus un nouveau vin dans de vieilles outres, si on le fait, les outres se briseront, le vin se versera et les outres se détruiront. Plûtot, on met du nouveau vin dans des outres fraîches, et les deux seront bien conservés.» 18 Pendant que Jésus leur parlait ces choses, voici, un officier arriva et se prosterna devant lui. Il dit: «Ma fille vient de mourrir mais viens et poses ta main sur elle, et elle vivra.» 19 Jésus se leva et le suivit avec ses disciples. 20 Et voici, une femme qui souffrait sévèrement de perte de sang depuis douze ans, vint derrière Jésus et toucha le bord de son vêtement; 21 car elle se disait: «Si seulement je touche ses vêtements, je serai guéri.» 22 Alors, mais Jésus se retourna vers elle et lui dit: «Ma fille, prends courage. Ta foi t'a guérie.» Et la femme fut guérie immédiatement. 23 Quand Jésus arriva dans la maison de l'officier, il vit des joueurs de flûte et une grande foule qui faisait beaucoup de bruits; 24 il dit: «Allez-vous-en car la fille n'est pas morte, mais elle dort.» Mais ils se moquèrent de lui. 25 Quand la foule fût mise dehors, il entra dans la chambre et la prit par la main; et la fille se mit debout. 26 L'on répandit la nouvelle à ce propos dans toute cette région. 27 Au moment où Jésus partit de là, deux hommes aveugles se mirent à le suivre. Ils n'arrêtaient de crier en disant: «Aie pitié de nous, Fils de David!» 28 Quand Jésus arriva dans la maison, les aveugles s'approchèrent de lui. Jésus leur demanda: «Croyez-vous que je puisse faire cela?» Ils lui répondirent: «Oui, Seigneur.» 29 Alors Jésus leur toucha les yeux et dit: «Qu'il vous soit accordé selon votre foi.» 30 Et leur yeux s'ouvrirent. Puis Jésus leur recommanda strictement et dit: «Que personne ne soit au courant de ceci.» 31 Mais les deux hommes s'en allèrent et répandirent la nouvelle à travers toute cette région. 32 Tandis que ces deux hommes s'en allaient, voici, on amena à Jésus un homme muet et possédé par un démon. 33 Quand le démon fut chassé, le muet se mit à parler. La foule était étonnée et dit: «Ceci n'a jamais été vu auparavant en Israel!» 34 Mais les Pharisiens disaient: «C'est par le chef des démons, qu'il chasse les démons.» 35 Jésus parcourait toutes les villes et les villages. Il continuait à enseigner dans leurs synagogues, prêchant l' évangile du royaume, et guérissant toutes sortes de maladies et toutes sortes d'infirmités. 36 Lorsqu'il vit la foule, il eut de la compassion pour elle parce qu'elle était troublée et découragée. Elle était comme un troupeau sans berger. 37 Il dit à ses disciples: «La moisson est grande mais il y a peu d'ouvriers. 38 Ainsi, priez le Seigneur de la moisson, pour qu'il envoie des ouvriers dans sa moisson.»

Matthew 10:1

Déclaration de connexion:

Cela commence par un compte rendu de Jésus envoyant ses douze disciples pour faire son travail.

appelé ses douze disciples ensemble

"Convoqué ses 12 disciples" (Voir: Nombres )

leur a donné l'autorité

Assurez-vous que le texte communique clairement que cette autorité était 1) de chasser les esprits impurs et 2) de guérir les maladies et les maladies.

les chasser

«Faire partir les esprits impurs»

toutes sortes de maladies et toutes sortes de maladies

«Chaque maladie et chaque maladie». Les mots «maladie» et «maladie» sont étroitement liés, mais doivent être traduits, si possible, en deux mots différents. «Maladie» est ce qui provoque une personne à être malade. La «maladie» est la faiblesse physique ou l'affliction résultant d'une maladie.

Matthew 10:2

Informations générales:

Ici, l'auteur fournit les noms des douze apôtres comme informations de base.

À présent

Ce mot est utilisé ici pour marquer une rupture dans le scénario principal. Ici, Matthew raconte des informations de base sur les douze apôtres. (Voir: Informations générales )

douze apôtres

C'est le même groupe que les «douze disciples» dans Matthieu 10: 1 .

premier

Ceci est premier dans l'ordre, pas dans le rang. (Voir: Nombres ordinaux )

le zélote

Les significations possibles sont 1) «le zélote» est un titre qui montre qu'il faisait partie du groupe de personnes qui voulaient libérer le peuple juif de la domination romaine. AT: "le patriote" ou "le nationaliste" ou 2) "le zélote" est une description qui montre qu'il était zélé pour que Dieu soit honoré. AT: «le zélé » ou «le passionné»

Matthew le percepteur

"Matthew, qui était un percepteur d'impôt"

qui le trahirait

“Qui trahirait Jésus”

Matthew 10:5

Déclaration de connexion:

Ici, Jésus commence à donner des instructions à ses disciples sur ce qu’ils doivent faire et à quoi ils s’attendent quand ils vont prêcher.

Informations générales:

Bien que le verset 5 commence en disant qu'il a envoyé les douze, Jésus a donné ces instructions avant de les envoyer. (Voir: Ordre des événements )

Ces douze Jésus ont envoyé

"Jésus a envoyé ces douze hommes" ou "Ce sont ces douze hommes que Jésus a envoyés"

envoyé

Jésus les a envoyés pour un but particulier.

Il les a instruits

"Il leur a dit ce qu'ils devaient faire" ou "Il les a commandés"

brebis perdue de la maison d'Israël

Ceci est une métaphore comparant la nation entière d'Israël à des moutons qui se sont éloignés de leur berger. (Voir: métaphore )

maison d'Israël

Cela fait référence à la nation d'Israël. AT: «peuple d'Israël» ou «descendants d'Israël» (voir: métonymie )

comme vous allez

Ici, vous êtes pluriel et fait référence aux douze apôtres. (Voir: formes de vous )

Le royaume des cieux s'est approché

L'expression «royaume des cieux» fait référence à Dieu en tant que roi. Cette phrase est seulement dans le livre de Matthieu. Si possible, utilisez le mot «paradis» dans votre traduction. Voyez comment vous avez traduit ceci dans Matthieu 3: 2 . AT: "Notre Dieu au ciel se montrera bientôt roi" (Voir: Métonymie )

Matthew 10:8

Déclaration de connexion:

Jésus continue d'instruire ses disciples sur ce qu'ils doivent faire quand ils vont prêcher.

vous votre

Celles-ci sont plurielles et se réfèrent aux douze apôtres. (Voir: formes de vous )

Ressucite les morts

Ceci est un idiome. AT: «Faites revivre les morts» (Voir: Idiom )

Librement vous avez reçu, donnez gratuitement

Jésus n'a pas indiqué ce que les disciples avaient reçu ou devaient donner. Certaines langues peuvent nécessiter cette information dans la phrase. Ici "librement" signifie qu'il n'y avait pas de paiement. AT: « Vous avez reçu ces choses gratuitement, donnez-les librement aux autres» ou «Vous avez reçu ces choses sans payer, alors donnez-les à d'autres sans les faire payer »(Voir: Ellipsis )

Librement vous avez reçu, donnez gratuitement

Ici, «reçu» est une métaphore qui représente la capacité de faire des choses, et «donner» est une métaphore qui représente faire des choses pour les autres. AT: "Vous avez librement la possibilité de faire ces choses, faites-les librement pour les autres" ou "Je vous ai permis de faire ces choses librement, faites-les librement pour les autres" (Voir: Métaphore ) 268 traductionNotes Matthieu 10: 8-10

Utilisez le même mot que vous avez utilisé pour «tunique» dans Matthieu 5:40 .

ouvrier

ouvrier

Sa nourriture

Ici, «nourriture» fait référence à tout ce dont une personne a besoin. AT: «ce dont il a besoin» (voir: Synecdoche )

vous votre

Celles-ci sont plurielles et se réfèrent aux douze apôtres. (Voir: formes de vous )

Quelle que soit la ville ou le village dans lequel vous entrez

«Chaque fois que vous entrez dans une ville ou un village» ou «Quand vous entrez dans une ville ou un village»

village de la ville

«Grand village… petit village» ou «grande ville… petite ville». Voyez comment vous avez traduit cela dans Matthieu 9:35 .

digne… pas digne

En 10: 11-13, une personne «digne» fait référence à une personne qui souhaite accueillir les disciples. Jésus compare cette personne à une personne qui n'est «pas digne», une personne qui n'accueille pas les disciples.

restez là jusqu'à votre départ

La signification complète de la déclaration peut être explicite. AT: «restez dans la maison de cette personne jusqu'à ce que vous quittiez la ville ou le village» (voir: Connaissance supposée et information implicite ) 271 Matthieu 10: 11-13 traductionNotes

En entrant dans la maison, saluez-le

La phrase «saluez-le» signifie saluer la maison. Une salutation commune à cette époque était «La paix soit dans cette maison!» Ici, «la maison» représente les personnes qui vivent dans la maison. AT: "En entrant dans la maison, saluez les gens qui y vivent" (Voir: Métonymie )

la maison est digne

Ici «la maison» représente ceux qui vivent dans la maison. AT: "les gens qui vivent dans cette maison vous reçoivent bien" ou "les gens qui vivent dans cette maison vous traitent bien" (Voir: Metonymy )

laisse ta paix venir

Le mot «il» fait référence à la maison, qui représente les personnes qui vivent dans la maison. AT: «laissez-les recevoir votre paix» ou «laissez-les recevoir la paix avec laquelle vous les avez accueillis» (Voir: Métonymie )

si ce n'est pas digne

Le mot «ça» signifie la maison. Ici, «maison» fait référence aux personnes qui vivent dans la maison. AT: "s'ils ne vous reçoivent pas bien" ou "s'ils ne vous traitent pas bien" (Voir: Métonymie )

laisse ta paix te revenir

Les significations possibles sont 1) si le ménage n'était pas digne, alors Dieu retiendrait la paix ou les bénédictions de ce ménage ou 2) si le ménage n'était pas digne, alors les apôtres étaient censés faire quelque chose, comme demander à Dieu de ne pas honorer leur salut de paix. Si votre langue a un sens similaire de reprendre un message d'accueil ou ses effets, cela devrait être utilisé ici.

Matthew 10:14

Déclaration de connexion:

Jésus continue d'instruire ses disciples sur ce qu'ils doivent faire quand ils vont prêcher.

Quant à ceux qui ne vous reçoivent pas ou écoutent

«Si personne dans cette maison ou cette ville ne vous reçoit ou n'écoute»

vous votre

Ceci est pluriel et se réfère aux douze apôtres. (Voir: formes de vous )

écoute tes paroles

Ici, les mots font référence à ce que disent les disciples. AT: «écoute ton message» ou «écoute ce que tu faut dire ”(Voir: métonymie )

ville

Vous devriez traduire ceci comme vous l'avez fait dans Matthieu 10:11 .

secoue la poussière de tes pieds

“Secoue la poussière de tes pieds quand tu pars.” C'est un signe que Dieu a rejeté les gens de cette maison ou de cette ville. (Voir: Action symbolique ) 273 Matthieu 10: 14-15 traductionNotes

Je vous le dis en vérité

"Je vous dis la vérité." Cette phrase met l'accent sur ce que Jésus dit ensuite.

Matthew 10:16

Déclaration de connexion:

Jésus continue à instruire ses disciples. Ici, il commence à leur parler de la persécution qu'ils subiront lorsqu'ils sortiront pour prêcher.

Voir, j'envoie

Le mot «Voir» ici met l'accent sur ce qui suit. AT: «Regardez, j'envoie» ou «Écoutez, envoyez» ou «Faites attention à ce que je vais vous dire. J'envoie"

Je t'envoie

Jésus les envoie pour un but particulier.

comme des moutons au milieu des loups

Les moutons sont des animaux sans défense que les loups attaquent souvent. Jésus déclare que les gens peuvent faire du mal aux disciples. AT: «comme des moutons parmi les gens qui sont comme des loups dangereux» ou «comme des moutons parmi les personnes qui agissent comme des animaux dangereux agissent» (Voir: Simile ) 275 Matthieu 10: 16-18 traductionNotes

être aussi sage que les serpents et inoffensif comme les colombes

Jésus dit aux disciples qu'ils doivent être prudents et inoffensifs parmi les gens. Si comparer les disciples aux serpents ou aux colombes est déroutant, il pourrait être préférable de ne pas énoncer les comparaisons. AT: «agir avec compréhension et prudence, avec innocence et vertu» (Voir: Simile )

Attention aux gens! Ils vont

Vous pouvez traduire avec «parce que» pour montrer comment ces deux déclarations se rapportent. AT: «Méfiez-vous des gens parce qu'ils le feront» (Voir: Connecter les mots )

Le pronom «eux» se réfère soit aux «gouverneurs et aux rois», soit aux accusateurs juifs.

Matthew 10:19

Déclaration de connexion:

Jésus continue d'instruire ses disciples au sujet de la persécution qu'ils subiront lorsqu'ils sortiront pour prêcher.

Quand ils vous livrent

"Quand les gens vous emmènent aux conseils." Les "gens" ici sont les mêmes "personnes" que dans Matthew 10:17 .

Celles-ci sont plurielles et se réfèrent aux douze apôtres. (Voir: formes de vous )

ne soyez pas anxieux

dans cette heure

Ici, «heure» signifie «tout de suite». AT: «alors» ou «à ce moment-là» (voir: métonymie )

l'esprit de ton père

Si nécessaire, cela peut être traduit par «l'Esprit de Dieu, votre Père céleste» ou une note de bas de page peut être ajoutée pour indiquer clairement que cela fait référence à Dieu le Saint-Esprit et non à l'esprit d'un père terrestre .

un père son enfant

Ces mots peuvent être traduits comme une phrase complète. AT: «les pères livrent leurs enfants à la mort» (voir: Ellipsis )

Ici, «nom» désigne la personne entière. AT: "à cause de moi" ou "parce que tu me fais confiance" (voir: métonymie )

celui qui dure

“Celui qui reste fidèle”

jusqu'à la fin

Il n'est pas clair si la «fin» signifie quand une personne meurt, quand la persécution prend fin ou la fin de l'âge où Dieu se montre roi. L'essentiel est qu'ils durent aussi longtemps que nécessaire.

cette personne sera sauvé

Cela peut être indiqué sous forme active. AT: "Dieu délivrera cette personne" (Voir: Actif ou Passif )

dans cette ville

Ici, «ceci» ne se réfère pas à une ville spécifique. AT: “dans une ville”

est venu

“Arrive”

Matthew 10:24

Déclaration de connexion:

Jésus continue d'instruire ses disciples au sujet de la persécution qu'ils subiront lorsqu'ils sortiront pour prêcher.

Un disciple n'est pas plus grand que son maître, ni un serviteur au-dessus de son maître

Jésus utilise un proverbe pour enseigner à ses disciples une vérité générale. Jésus insiste sur le fait que les disciples ne doivent pas s'attendre à ce que les gens les traitent mieux que les gens traitent Jésus. (Voir: Proverbes )

Un disciple n'est pas plus grand que son professeur

"Un disciple est toujours moins important que son professeur" ou "Un enseignant est toujours plus important que son disciple"

ni un serviteur au-dessus de son maître

"Et un serviteur est toujours moins important que son maître" ou "et un maître est toujours plus important que son serviteur"

Il suffit que le disciple soit comme son professeur

"Le disciple doit être satisfait de devenir comme son professeur" 283 Matthieu 10: 24-25 traductionNotes

être comme son professeur

Si nécessaire, vous pouvez expliquer comment le disciple devient un enseignant. AT: «sais autant que son professeur le sait» (voir: Connaissance supposée et information implicite )

le serviteur comme son maître

Si nécessaire, vous pouvez expliquer comment le serviteur devient comme le maître. AT: « le serviteur doit se contenter de devenir aussi important que son maître » (voir: Connaissance acceptation et de Informations implicites )

S'ils ont appelé le maître… combien pire… ils appellent… les membres de son ménage

Encore une fois, Jésus insiste sur le fait que puisque les gens l'ont maltraité, ses disciples doivent s'attendre à ce que les gens les traitent de la même façon ou pire.

combien pis serait les noms qu'ils appellent les membres de sa maison

"Les noms qu'ils appellent les membres de son foyer seront certainement bien pires" ou "ils appelleront certainement les membres de sa famille des noms bien pires"

S'ils ont appelé

"Depuis que les gens ont appelé"

le maître de la maison

Jésus utilise cela comme une métaphore pour lui-même. (Voir: métaphore )

Beelzebul

Ce nom peut être soit 1) transcrit directement sous le nom de «Beelzebul» ou 2) traduit avec sa signification originale voulue de «Satan».

son ménage

C'est une métaphore pour les disciples de Jésus. (Voir: métaphore )

Matthew 10:26

Déclaration de connexion:

Jésus continue d'instruire ses disciples au sujet de la persécution qu'ils subiront lorsqu'ils sortiront pour prêcher.

ne les crains pas

Ici, «eux» fait référence aux personnes qui maltraitent les disciples de Jésus.

il n'y a rien de caché qui ne sera pas révélé et rien de caché qui ne sera pas connu

Ces deux déclarations signifient la même chose. Être caché ou caché représente être gardé secret, et être révélé représente la connaissance. Jésus insiste sur le fait que Dieu fera connaître toutes les choses. Cela peut être indiqué sous forme active. AT: «Dieu révélera les choses que les gens hide »(Voir: Métaphore et Actif ou Passif )

Ce que je te dis dans les ténèbres, dis au jour, et ce que tu entends doucement dans ton oreille, proclame sur les toits

Ces deux déclarations signifient la même chose. Jésus insiste sur le fait que les disciples devraient dire à chacun ce qu’il dit aux disciples en privé. AT: «Dites aux gens en plein jour ce que je vous dis dans l' obscurité et proclamez sur les toits ce que vous entendez doucement dans votre oreille» (voir: Parallélisme )

Ce que je te dis dans l'obscurité, dis en plein jour

Ici, «obscurité» est un métonyme de «nuit» qui est un métonyme pour «privé». Ici, «lumière du jour» est un métonyme pour «public». AT: «Ce que je vous dis en privé ”(Voir:) 286 traductionNotes Matthieu 10: 26-27

ce que vous entendez doucement dans votre oreille

C'est une façon de parler de chuchotement. AT: "ce que je te chuchote" (voir: idiome )

proclamer sur les toits

Les habitations où Jésus vivait étaient plates et les personnes éloignées pouvaient entendre toute personne parler à voix haute. Ici, les «ménages» se réfèrent à tout endroit où tout le monde peut entendre. AT: «parler fort dans un lieu public pour que tout le monde l'entende» (voir: métonymie )

Matthew 10:28

Déclaration de connexion:

Jésus continue d'instruire ses disciples sur la persécution qu'ils subiront lorsqu'ils iront prêcher.

Informations générales:

Ici, Jésus commence aussi à donner les raisons pour lesquelles ses disciples ne devraient pas avoir peur de la persécution qu'ils pourraient subir.

N'ayez pas peur de ceux qui tuent le corps mais sont incapables de tuer l'âme

Cela ne fait pas de distinction entre les personnes qui ne peuvent pas tuer l'âme et celles qui peuvent tuer l'âme. Personne ne peut tuer l'âme. AT: «N'ayez pas peur des gens. Ils peuvent tuer le corps, mais ils ne peuvent pas tuer l'âme »(voir: Distinguer ou informer ou rappeler )

Chapter 10

1 Jésus rassembla ses douze disciples et leur donna l'autorité sur les esprits impurs; afin qu'ils les chassent et qu'ils guérissent toutes sortes de maladies et toutes sortes d'infirmités. 2 Voici les noms des douze apôtres. Premièrement, Simon (qui est encore appelé Pierre) et André son frère, Jacques, fils de Zébédée et Jean qui est son frère, 3 Phillipe et Barthélémy, Thomas et Matthieu le collecteur d'impôts, Jacques le fils d' Alphée et Thaddée, 4 Simon le Zélote et Judas Iscariot qui trahit Jésus. 5 Jésus envoya ces douze. Il leur donna cette instruction: « N'allez nulle part où vivent les païens et n'entrez dans aucune ville des Samaritains. 6 Mais, allez plutôt vers les brebis perdues de la maison d'Israël. 7 Et, pendant que vous aller, prêchez et dites: "Le royaume des cieux s'est approché."» 8 Guérissez les malades, ressuscitez les morts, purifiez les lépreux et chassez les démons. Vous avez reçu gratuitement, donnez aussi gratuitement. 9 Ne vous procurez ni or, ni argent, ni bronze pour vos poches. Ne prenez ni sac de voyage, ni un deuxième habit, ni des sandales, ni bâton. 10 Car l'ouvrier mérite son salaire. 11 Quelque soit la ville ou le village où vous entrez, cherchez qui est digne de vous reçevoir et restez chez cette personne jusqu'à ce que vous partiez. 12 Quand vous entrez dans une maison, saluez. 13 Si la maison est digne, que votre paix repose sur elle. Mais si la maison n'est pas digne, que votre paix revienne à vous. 14 Pour ceux qui refusent de vous recevoir ou d'écouter vos paroles, quand vous partirez de cette maison ou de cette ville, secouez la poussière de vos pieds. 15 En vérité, je vous le dis, le pays de Sodome et Gomorrhe sera traité moins sévèrement que cette ville là au jour du jugement. 16 Voici, je vous envoie comme des brebis au milieu des loups, soyez donc prudents comme des serpents et inoffensifs comme des colombes. 17 Mettez-vous en gardes contre les hommes car ils vous livreront aux tribunaux et ils vous fouetteront dans leurs synagogues. 18 Vous serez trainés devant les gouverneurs et les rois à cause de moi, pour servir de temoignage à eux et aux paiens. 19 Quand ils vous livreront, ne soyez pas anxieux de comment ou de ce que vous allez dire, car ce que vous allez dire vous sera donné à cette heure là. 20 Car ce n'est pas vous qui parlerez. Au contraire, l'Esprit de votre Père parlera en vous. 21 Le frère livrera son frère à la mort et le père son enfant. Les enfants se rebelleront contre leurs parents et causeront leur mort. 22 Tous vous haïront à cause de mon nom. Mais quiconque persévèrera jusqu'à la fin sera sauvé. 23 Lorsqu'ils vous persécuteront dans cette ville, fuyez dans une autre ville. Car en vérité, je vous le dis: « Vous n'aurez pas fini de parcourir toutes les villes d'Israel avant que le Fils de l'homme ne soit venu. 24 Un disciple n'est pas plus grand que son maître, ni le serviteur supérieur à son patron. 25 Il suffit au disciple d'être traité comme son maître et au serviteur comme son patron. S'ils ont appelé le maître de la maison Béelzébul, combien pire seront les noms des gens de sa maison! 26 Ainsi ne les craignez pas, car il n'y a rien de secret qui ne sera revélé et rien de caché qui ne sera connu. 27 Ce que je vous dis dans les ténèbres, dites-le à la lumière du jour et ce qui vous est chuchoté dans l'oreille, proclamez-le sur le toit des maisons. 28 Ne craignez pas ceux qui tuent le corps mais sont incapables de tuer l'âme. Plutôt, craignez celui qui peut détruire à la fois l'âme et le corps dans l'enfer. 29 Deux moineaux ne sont-ils pas vendus pour un sous? Cependant, aucun d'eux ne tombe par terre sans que votre Père ne le sache. 30 De même, les cheveux de votre tête sont tous comptés. 31 Ne craignez donc pas. Vous valez bien plus que plusieurs moineaux. 32 Ainsi, toute personne qui me confesse devant les hommes, je le confesserai aussi devant mon Père qui est dans les cieux. 33 Mais celui qui me renie devant les hommes, je le renierai aussi devant mon Père qui est dans les cieux. 34 Ne pensez pas que je sois venu pour apporter la paix sur la terre. Je ne suis pas venu pour apporter la paix mais l'épée. 35 Car je suis venu dresser un homme contre son père, une fille contre sa mère et une belle-fille contre sa belle-mère. 36 Les ennemis d'un homme seront les membres de sa propre famille. 37 Celui qui aime son père ou sa mère plus que moi n' est pas digne de moi et celui aime son fils ou sa fille plus que moi n' est pas digne de moi. 38 Celui qui ne prend pas sa croix pour me suivre n' est pas digne de moi. 39 Celui qui trouve sa vie la perdra mais celui qui perd sa vie pour moi la retrouvera. 40 Celui qui vous reçoit me reçoit et celui qui me reçoit, reçoit celui qui m'a envoyé. 41 Celui qui reçoit un prophète parce qu'il est un prophète, il recevra la récompense d'un prophète. Celui qui reçoit un juste parce qu' il est un juste, il recevra la récompense d'un juste. 42 Quiconque donne même un verre d' eau fraîche à l'un de ces petits parce qu' il est mon disciple, en vérité je vous le dis, il ne perdra en aucun cas sa récompense.

Jésus utilise une parabole pour décrire les personnes qui étaient vivantes à cette époque. Il les compare à un groupe d'enfants qui essaient de faire jouer les autres enfants avec eux. Mais peu importe comme ils le font, les autres enfants ne les rejoindront pas. Jésus veut dire que peu importe que Dieu envoie quelqu'un comme Jean-Baptiste, qui vit dans le désert et le jeûne, ou quelqu'un comme Jésus, qui célèbre avec les pécheurs et ne jeûne pas.

Jésus conclut en parlant aux foules au sujet de Jean-Baptiste

ne pas manger de pain ou boire du vin

Jésus se réfère à lui-même. AT: "Moi, le Fils de l'homme, je suis venu" (voir: Première, deuxième ou troisième personne ) 317 Matthieu 11: 18-19 traductionNotes

est venu manger et boire

C'est le contraire du comportement de John. Cela signifie plus que de simplement consommer le montant normal de nourriture et de boisson. Cela signifie que Jésus a célébré et apprécié la bonne nourriture et la boisson comme son peuple l’a fait.

ils disent: «Regardez, c'est un homme gourmand et un ivrogne… des pécheurs!

Cela peut être traduit par une citation indirecte. AT: “ils disent qu'il est un homme glouton et un ivrogne … Les pécheurs. »Ou« ils l'accusent de manger et de boire trop et d' être… des pécheurs. »(Voir: citations directes et indirectes )

ils disent: «Regardez, c'est un homme gourmand et un ivrogne… des pécheurs!

Si vous avez traduit «le fils de l'homme» par «moi, le fils de l'homme», vous pouvez l'indiquer comme une déclaration indirecte et utilisez la première personne. AT: "Ils disent que je suis un homme gourmand et un ivrogne ... des pécheurs." Citations directes et indirectes et première, deuxième ou troisième personne )

c'est un homme glouton

"Il est un mangeur gourmand" ou "il mange continuellement trop de nourriture"

un ivrogne

"Un ivrogne" ou "il boit continuellement trop d'alcool"

Mais la sagesse est justifiée par ses actes

C'est un proverbe que Jésus applique à cette situation, parce que les personnes qui l'ont rejeté et John n'était pas sage. Jésus et Jean-Baptiste sont les sages et les résultats de leurs les actes le prouvent. (Voir: Proverbes )

la sagesse est justifiée par ses actes

Ici, la «sagesse» est décrite comme une femme qui a fait ses preuves. Jésus veut dire que les résultats des actions d'un sage prouvent qu'il est vraiment sage. Cela peut être indiqué dans actif forme. AT: "les résultats des actes d'un sage prouvent qu'il est sage" (voir: Personnification et Actif ou Passif )

Si les grandes actions avaient été faites à Tyr et à Sidon, ce qui a été fait en vous

Cela peut être traduit avec des formulaires actifs. AT: «Si j'avais fait les actions puissantes parmi les gens de Tire et Sidon que j'ai fait parmi vous »(Voir: Actif ou Passif )

qui a été fait en vous… que pour vous

Ici, le «vous» est au pluriel et se réfère à Chorazin et Bethsaida. Si c'est plus naturel pour votre langue, vous pourriez utiliser un double «vous» pour faire référence aux deux villes, ou un pluriel «vous» pour désigner les personnes des villes. (Voir: formes de vous )

Toi, Capharnaüm

Jésus parle maintenant aux gens de la ville de Capharnaüm comme s’ils l’écoutaient, mais ils n'étaient pas. Le pronom «vous» est singulier et se réfère à Capharnaüm à travers ces deux versets. (Voir: Apostrophe )

Toi

Toutes les occurrences de «vous» sont singulières. S'il est plus naturel de se référer aux habitants de la ville, vous pouvez traduire par «vous» au pluriel (voir: formes de vous ).

Capharnaüm… Sodome

Les noms de ces villes font référence aux habitants de Capharnaüm et de Sodome. (Voir: métonymie ) 323 Matthieu 11: 23-24 traductionNotes

Cette phrase met l'accent sur ce que Jésus dit ensuite.

il sera plus facile pour le pays de Sodome au jour du jugement que pour vous

Ici, «terre de Sodome» se réfère aux personnes qui y vivaient. AT: «Dieu montrera plus de pitié à la les gens de Sodome au jour du jugement que pour vous »ou« Dieu vous punira plus sévèrement jour de jugement que le peuple de Sodome »(Voir: Métonymie )

que pour toi

Les informations implicites peuvent être explicitées. AT: «que pour vous, parce que vous ne vous êtes pas repenti et Crois en moi, même si tu m'as vu faire des miracles »(Voir: Connaissances supposées et informations implicites ) 324 traductionNotes Matthieu 11: 23-24

Matthew 11:25

Informations générales:

Aux versets 25 et 26, Jésus prie son Père céleste alors qu'il est toujours en présence de la foule. Dans verset 27, il commence à s'adresser à nouveau aux gens.

Père

C'est un titre important pour Dieu. (Voir: Traduire Fils et Père )

Seigneur du ciel et de la terre

"Seigneur qui règne sur le ciel et la terre." L'expression "ciel et terre" est un mérisme qui se réfère à toutes les personnes et toutes les choses dans l'univers. AT: "Seigneur qui règne sur tout l'univers" (Voir: Merism )

vous avez caché ces choses… et les avez révélées

Ce que l'on entend par «ces choses» n'est pas clair. Si votre langue doit spécifier ce que l'on veut dire, une autre traduction pourrait être préférable. AT: «Vous avez caché ces vérités… et les avez révélées» 326 traductionNotes Matthieu 11: 25-27

vous avez caché ces choses de

"Vous avez caché ces choses" ou "vous n'avez pas fait connaître ces choses". Ce verbe est l'opposé de "révélé".

du sage et de la compréhension

Ces adjectifs nominaux peuvent être traduits en adjectifs. AT: «des gens sages et compréhensifs» (Voir: Adjectifs nominaux )

le sage et la compréhension

Jésus utilise l'ironie. Il ne pense pas que ces personnes soient vraiment sages. AT: "les gens qui pensent qu'ils sont sages et compréhensifs" (Voir: Irony )

les a révélés

“Les ont fait connaître”. Le pronom “eux” fait référence à “ces choses” plus haut dans ce verset.

aux petits enfants

Jésus compare les gens ignorants aux petits enfants. Jésus insiste sur le fait que beaucoup de ceux qui le croient ne sont pas bien éduqués ou ne se considèrent pas comme des sages.

car c'était tellement agréable à tes yeux

La phrase «à vos yeux» est un métonyme qui représente la manière dont une personne considère quelque chose. AT: "car vous avez jugé bon de le faire" (voir: métonymie )

Toutes les choses

Les significations possibles sont 1) Dieu le Père a tout révélé de lui-même et de son royaume à Jésus ou 2) Dieu a donné toute autorité à Jésus.

mon père

C'est un titre important pour Dieu qui décrit la relation entre Dieu et Jésus. (Voir: Traduire Fils et Père ) 327 Matthieu 11: 25-27 TraductionNotes

personne ne connaît le Fils sauf le Père

“Seul le Père connaît le Fils”

personne ne sait

Le mot «sait» signifie plus que simplement connaître quelqu'un. Cela signifie savoir somoene intimement parce qu'il a une relation spéciale avec lui.

le fils

Jésus se référait à lui-même à la troisième personne. (Voir: Première, deuxième ou troisième personne )

Fils

C'est un titre important pour Jésus, le Fils de Dieu. (Voir: Traduire Fils et Père )

personne ne connaît le Père sauf le Fils

Matthew 11:28

Déclaration de connexion:

Jésus a fini de parler à la foule.

tout vous

Toutes les occurrences de «vous» sont au pluriel. (Voir: formes de vous )

qui travaillent et sont lourdement chargés

Jésus parle de personnes découragées dans leurs tentatives d'obéir à toutes les lois, comme si ces lois étaient un lourd fardeau et que les gens travaillaient pour les porter. AT: "qui sont découragés d'essayer si fort" ou "qui sont découragés d'essayer si difficilement d'obéir parfaitement aux lois" (Voir: Métaphore )

Je te donnerai du repos

"Je vais vous permettre de vous reposer de votre travail et de votre fardeau"

Prends mon joug sur toi

Jésus poursuit la métaphore. Jésus invite les gens à devenir ses disciples et à le suivre. (Voir: métaphore )

Je suis doux et humble en coeur

Ici, «doux» et «humble» signifient essentiellement la même chose. Jésus les combine pour souligner qu'il sera beaucoup plus gentil que les chefs religieux. AT: "Je suis doux et humble" ou "Je suis très gentil" (Voir: Doublet ) 329 Matthieu 11: 28-30 traductionNotes

humble en coeur

Ici, «cœur» est un métonyme pour l'être intérieur d'une personne. L'expression «humble en cœur» est un idiome qui signifie «humble». AT: «humble» (Voir: métonymie et idiome )

tu trouveras du repos pour tes âmes

Ici, «âme» se réfère à la personne entière. AT: "vous trouverez du repos pour vous-même" ou "vous pourrez vous reposer" (voir: Synecdoche

Car mon joug est facile et mon fardeau est léger

Ces deux phrases signifient la même chose. Jésus insiste sur le fait qu'il est plus facile de lui obéir que la loi juive. AT: "Pour ce que je vous mets, vous pourrez porter parce que c'est léger" (voir: Parallélisme )

mon fardeau est léger

Le mot «lumière» ici est le contraire de lourd, pas le contraire de l'obscurité.

Chapter 11

1 Il arriva que lorsque Jésus eut fini de donner ces instructions à ses douze disciples, il partit de là pour enseigner et prêcher dans leurs villes. 2 Alors, lorsque Jean-Baptiste entendit parler des œuvres du Christ dans la prison, il envoya un message par ses disciples et lui dit: 3 «Es-tu celui qui vient ou y a-t-il une autre personne que nous devrions rechercher?» 4 Jésus repondit et leur dit: « Allez et racontez à Jean ce que vous voyez et entendez. 5 Les personnes aveugles reçoivent la vue, les personnes infirmes marchent, les lépreux sont purifiés, les personnes sourdes entendent encore, les personnes mortes sont ressuscitées, et la bonne nouvelle est annoncée aux personnes nécéssiteuses. 6 Et heureux est quiconque ne trouve pas d'occasion de chute en moi.» 7 Comme ces hommes s'en allaient sur leur chemin, Jésus commença à dire aux foules à propos de Jean: « Qu'êtes-vous allés voir dans le desert, un roseau secoué par le vent? 8 Mais qu'êtes vous sortis voir, un homme vêtu d'habit pourpre? En réalité, ceux qui s'habillent de pourpre vivent dans les maisons de rois. 9 Mais qu' êtes -vous sortis voir, un prophète? Oui, je vous le dis, et bien plus qu'un prophète. 10 Voici celui dont il est ecrit: " Vois, j'envoie devant ta face mon messager qui préparera ton chemin devant toi" 11 Je vous le dis en vérité, parmi ceux nés des femmes, personne n' est plus grand que Jean Baptiste. Mais la personne la moins importante dans le royaume des cieux est plus grand que lui. 12 Depuis les jours de Jean Baptiste jusqu'à maintenant, le royaume des cieux subit la violence et les hommes de violence le prennent de force. 13 Car tous les prophètes et la loi ont prophétisé jusqu'à Jean. 14 Et si vous voulez le recevoir, c' est lui Elie, celui qui devait venir. 15 Que celui qui a des oreilles pour entendre, qu'il écoute. 16 A quoi comparerai- je cette génération? C'est comme des enfants jouant sur la place du marché, qui s'asseyent et s'appellent l'un et l'autre et disent: 17 '' Nous avons joué la flute pour vous, et vous n'avez pas dansé. Nous avons fait deuil, et vous n'avez pas pleuré.'' 18 Car Jean est venu ne mangeant pas du pain et ne buvant pas du vin et ils disent: "Il a un démon." 19 Le Fils de l' homme est venu, mangeant et buvant et ils disent: " Regardez, il est un homme glouton et un ivrogne, un ami des collecteurs d' impôts et des pécheurs!" Mais la sagesse se justifie par ses oeuvres.''» 20 Alors Jésus commença à reprimander les villes dans lesquelles la plupart de ses grandes oeuvres avaient été faites, parce qu' elles ne s' étaient pas repenties. 21 « Malheur à toi, Chorazin! Malheur à toi, Bethsaïda! Si les grandes oeuvres avaient été faites dans Tyr et Sidon comme elles ont été faites chez vous, ils se seraient repentis depuis longtemps par le sac et les cendres. 22 Mais, il n' y aura plus de tolérance pour Tyr et Sidon au jour de jugement que pour vous. 23 Toi, Capernaüm, penses-tu que tu seras élevé au ciel? Non, tu seras abaissé jusque dans Hades. Car si à Sodome il avait été fait les grandes oeuvres qui ont été faites en toi, elle aurait subsisté jusqu' aujourd' hui. 24 Mais je vous dis qu'il sera plus facile pour la terre de Sodome au jour du jugement que pour toi.» 25 En ce moment Jésus dit: « Je te loue Père, Seigneur des cieux et de la terre, parce que tu as caché ces choses au sage et à l' intelligent, et les a révélées aux non-instruits, comme les petits enfants. 26 Oui, Père, car cela était plaisant à tes yeux. 27 Toutes ces choses m' ont été confiées par mon Père. Personne ne connait le Fils excepté le Père et personne ne connait le Père excepté le Fils et celui à qui le Fils desire le révéler. 28 Venez à moi, vous tous qui travaillez et êtes lourdement chargés et je vous donnerai du repos. 29 Prenez mon joug sur vous et apprenez de moi, car je suis humble et doux de cœur et vous trouverez du repos pour vos âmes. 30 Car mon joug est facile et mon fardeau est léger.»

Matthew 12:1

Informations générales:

C'est le début d'une nouvelle partie de l'histoire où Matthieu parle de l'opposition croissante au ministère de Jésus . Ici, les pharisiens critiquent ses disciples pour avoir ramassé du grain le jour du sabbat.

À ce moment-là

Cela marque une nouvelle partie de l'histoire. AT: "Un peu plus tard"

champs de céréales

un endroit pour planter du grain. Si le blé est inconnu et « grain » est trop général, vous pouvez utiliser « champs de la plante ils ont fait du pain à partir. » (Voir: Traduire Inconnues )

arracher des têtes de céréales et les manger… faire ce qu'il est illégal de faire le jour du sabbat

Cueillir du grain dans les champs des autres et le manger n'était pas considéré comme du vol. La question était de savoir si on pouvait faire cette activité par ailleurs légale le jour du sabbat.

cueillir des têtes de grain et les manger

«Cueillir du blé et le manger» ou «cueillir du grain et le manger»

têtes de grain

C'est la partie la plus haute du plant de blé. Il contient les grains mûrs ou les graines de la plante. 332 traductionNotes Matthieu 12: 1-2

les pharisiens

Cela ne signifie pas tous les pharisiens. AT: «des pharisiens»

Voyez, vos disciples

«Regardez, vos disciples.» Les pharisiens utilisent ce mot pour attirer l'attention sur ce que font les disciples .

Matthew 12:3

Déclaration de connexion:

Jésus répond à la critique des pharisiens.

pour eux

“Aux pharisiens”

Avez-vous jamais lu avec lui?

Jésus utilise une question pour répondre à la critique des pharisiens. Jésus leur demande de réfléchir à la signification des Écritures qu'ils ont lues. AT: "Je sais que vous avez lu sur… avec lui" (Voir: question rhétorique )

la maison de Dieu

À l'époque de David, il n'y avait pas encore de temple. AT: "le tabernacle" ou "le lieu de culte de Dieu"

pain de la présence

C'est le pain sacré que les prêtres ont placé devant Dieu dans le tabernacle. AT: "le pain que le prêtre a placé devant Dieu" ou "le pain sacré" (Voir: Connaissance supposée et information implicite )

ceux qui étaient avec lui

“Les hommes qui étaient avec David” 334 traductionNotes Matthieu 12: 3-4

mais légal seulement pour les prêtres

"Mais, selon la loi, seul le prêtre pouvait le manger"

Matthew 12:5

Déclaration de connexion:

Jésus continue de répondre aux pharisiens.

Avez-vous pas lu dans la loi que… mais sont sans culpabilité?

Jésus utilise une question pour répondre à la critique des pharisiens. Jésus leur demande de réfléchir à la signification de ce qu'ils ont lu dans les Écritures. AT: «Vous avez sûrement lu dans la loi de Moïse que… mais sont sans culpabilité. »Ou« Vous devriez savoir que la loi enseigne que… mais sont sans culpabilité. » (Voir: question rhétorique )

profane le sabbat

«Faire le sabbat ce qu'ils feraient un autre jour»

sont innocents

"Dieu ne les punira pas" ou "Dieu ne les considère pas coupables"

Je te dis

Cela met l'accent sur ce que Jésus dit ensuite.

un plus grand que le temple

«Quelqu'un qui est plus important que le temple». Jésus se référait à lui-même comme étant le plus grand. (Voir: Première, deuxième ou troisième personne ) 336 traductionNotes Matthieu 12: 5-6

Matthew 12:7

Déclaration de connexion:

Jésus continue de répondre aux pharisiens.

Informations générales:

Au verset 7, Jésus cite le prophète Osée pour réprimander les pharisiens.

Si vous aviez su ce que cela signifiait: "Je désire la miséricorde et non le sacrifice", vous n'auriez pas condamné le sans culpabilité

Ici, Jésus cite les Écritures. AT: «Le prophète Osée a écrit ceci il y a longtemps:« Je désire la miséricorde et non le sacrifice ». Si vous aviez compris ce que cela signifiait, vous n'auriez pas condamné l'innocent » (Voir: Connaissance supposée et information implicite )

Je désire la miséricorde et non le sacrifice

Dans la loi de Moïse, Dieu a commandé aux Israélites d'offrir des sacrifices. Cela signifie que Dieu considère la miséricorde plus importante que les sacrifices.

Je désire

Le pronom «je» fait référence à Dieu.

le sans culpabilité

Cela peut être traduit comme un adjectif. AT: "ceux qui ne sont pas coupables" (Voir: Adjectifs nominaux ) 338 traductionNotes Matthieu 12: 7-8

Le fils de l'homme

Jésus se réfère à lui-même. (Voir: Première, deuxième ou troisième personne )

est le seigneur du sabbat

"Règne sur le sabbat" ou "fait les lois sur ce que les gens peuvent faire le jour du sabbat"

Matthew 12:9

un homme qui avait une main flétrie

"Un homme qui avait une main paralysée" ou "un homme avec une main paralysée" 340 traductionNotes Matthieu 12: 9-10

Les pharisiens ont demandé à Jésus, en disant: "Est-il légal de guérir le jour du sabbat?" accusez-le de pécher

«Les pharisiens ont voulu accuser Jésus de pécher, alors ils lui ont demandé:« Est-il légal de guérir le jour du sabbat? ”

Est-il légal de guérir le sabbat

"Selon la loi de Moïse, une personne peut guérir une autre personne le jour du sabbat"

afin qu'ils puissent l'accuser de pécher

Ils ne voulaient pas seulement accuser Jésus devant les gens. Les pharisiens voulaient que Jésus donne une réponse qui contredit la loi de Moïse afin qu'ils puissent le prendre devant un juge et le contraindre légalement à enfreindre la loi. (Voir: Connaissance supposée et information implicite )

Matthew 12:11

Déclaration de connexion

Jésus répond à la critique des pharisiens.

Quel homme y aurait-il parmi vous, qui, s'il n'avait qu'un mouton… ne saisirait pas et le sortir?

Jésus utilise une question pour répondre aux pharisiens. Il les défie de réfléchir à quel type de travail ils font le jour du sabbat. AT: «Chacun d'entre vous, si vous n'aviez qu'un mouton… attrape les moutons et les retire» (Voir: Question rhétorique )

Combien vaut donc un homme qu'un mouton!

L'expression «combien plus» met l'accent sur la déclaration. AT: "Manifestement, un homme a beaucoup plus de valeur qu'un mouton!" Ou "Pensez à quel point un homme est plus important qu'un mouton"

il est légal de faire du bien le jour du sabbat

"Ceux qui font le bien le jour du sabbat obéissent à la loi"

Matthew 12:13

Alors Jésus dit à l'homme: "Étends ta main."

Cela peut être traduit comme une citation indirecte. AT: "Alors Jésus a ordonné à l'homme de tendre la main" (Voir: Citations directes et indirectes )

en qui mon âme est bien contente

Ici, «âme» se réfère à la personne entière. AT: "avec qui je suis très content" (voir: Synecdoche ) 348 traductionNotes Matthew 12:18

il proclamera la justice aux gentils

Les moyens que le serviteur de Dieu dira aux gentils qu'il y aura justice.

AT: «il annoncera aux nations que Dieu fera pour eux ce qui est droite" (Voir: Connaissances présumées et information implicite et noms abstraits )

Il ne cassera aucun roseau meurtri; il n'éteindra aucun lin fumant

Ces deux déclarations signifient la même chose. Ce sont des métaphores soulignant que le serviteur de Dieu sera doux et gentil. Le «roseau meurtri» et le «lin de tabac» représentent des personnes faibles et blessantes. Si la métaphore est déroutante, vous pouvez traduire le sens littéral. AT: "Il sera gentil avec les personnes faibles , et il sera gentil avec ceux qui souffrent" (voir: Parallélisme et métaphore )

roseau meurtri

«Plante endommagée»

il n'éteindra aucun lin fumant

"Il ne mettra aucun lin à fumer" ou "il n'empêchera pas le lin de brûler"

fumer du lin

Cela se réfère à une mèche de lampe après que la flamme est éteinte et quand il ne fait que fumer.

Cela peut être traduit par une nouvelle phrase: «lin. C'est ce qu'il fera jusqu'à ce que ”

Cet homme ne chasse pas les démons sauf par Beelzebul

Cela peut être énoncé sous une forme positive. "Cet homme est seulement capable de chasser le démon parce qu'il est un serviteur de Beelzebul" (Voir: Double Négatifs )

Cet homme

Les pharisiens évitent d'appeler Jésus par leur nom pour montrer qu'ils le rejettent.

le prince des démons

«Le chef des démons» 354 traductionNotes Matthieu 12: 24-25

Chaque royaume divisé contre lui-même est désolé, et toute ville ou maison divisée contre lui-même ne tiendra pas

Jésus utilise un proverbe pour répondre aux pharisiens. Ces deux déclarations signifient la même chose. Ils soulignent qu'il ne serait pas logique que Beelzebul utilise son pouvoir pour combattre d'autres démons. (Voir: Proverbes et Parallélisme )

Chaque royaume divisé contre lui-même est désolé

Ici, «royaume» se réfère à ceux qui vivent dans le royaume. Cela peut être traduit sous forme active. AT: "Un royaume ne durera pas quand son peuple se battra entre eux" (Voir: Métonymie et Actif ou Passif )

chaque ville ou maison divisée contre elle-même ne subsistera pas

Ici, «ville» fait référence aux personnes qui y vivent et «maison» fait référence à une famille. Etre «divisé contre soi-même» représente les personnes qui se combattent. AT: «cela ruine une ville ou une famille quand les gens se battent» (voir: métonymie et métaphore )

Matthew 12:26

Déclaration de connexion:

Jésus continue de répondre à l'accusation des pharisiens selon laquelle il aurait guéri l'homme par le pouvoir de Satan.

Si Satan chasse Satan

La seconde utilisation de Satan fait référence aux démons qui servent Satan. AT: "Si Satan travaille contre ses propres démons" (Voir: Métonymie )

Satan… Beelzebul

Les deux noms se rapportent à la même personne.

Comment alors son royaume se tiendra-t-il?

Jésus utilise cette question pour montrer aux pharisiens que ce qu'ils disaient était illogique. AT: "Si Satan était divisé contre lui-même, son royaume ne serait pas capable de se maintenir!" Ou "Si Satan devait se battre contre ses propres démons, son royaume ne durerait pas!" (Voir: Question rhétorique )

par qui vos fils les chassent-ils?

Jésus utilise une autre question pour défier les pharisiens. AT: «alors vous devez dire que vos partisans chassent aussi les démons par le pouvoir de Beelzebul. Mais vous savez que ce n'est pas vrai. »(Voir: Question rhétorique ) 356 traductionNotes Matthieu 12: 26-27

tes fils

Jésus parlait aux pharisiens. L'expression «vos fils» fait référence à leurs adeptes. C'était une manière courante de faire référence à ceux qui suivent des enseignants ou des leaders. AT: "vos disciples" (Voir: Métaphore )

Pour cette raison, ils seront vos juges

"Parce que vos disciples chassent les démons par le pouvoir de Dieu, ils prouvent que vous avez tort à mon sujet ."

Matthew 12:28

Déclaration de connexion:

Jésus continue de répondre aux pharisiens.

Mais si je

Ici, «si» ne signifie pas que Jésus se demande comment il chasse les démons. Ici, Jésus utilise le mot pour introduire une déclaration vraie. AT: "Mais parce que je"

alors le royaume de Dieu est venu sur vous

«Alors le royaume de Dieu est arrivé parmi vous». Ici, «royaume» se réfère à la règle de Dieu en tant que roi. AT: "cela signifie que Dieu établit sa règle parmi vous" (Voir: Métonymie )

viens sur toi

Ici, «vous» est pluriel et fait référence au peuple d'Israël. (Voir: formes de vous )

Comment peut-on entrer dans la maison… effets personnels de sa maison

Jésus utilise une parabole pour continuer sa réponse aux pharisiens. Jesu signifie qu'il peut chasser les démons parce qu'il est plus puissant que Satan. (Voir: Paraboles ) 358 traductionNotes Matthieu 12: 28-30

Comment peut-on entrer… sans attacher l'homme fort en premier?

Jésus utilise une question pour enseigner les pharisiens et la foule. AT: «Personne ne peut entrer… sans attacher l'homme fort en premier» ou «Si une personne veut entrer… il doit d'abord attacher l'homme fort.» (Voir: question rhétorique )

sans attacher l'homme fort en premier

"Sans prendre le contrôle de l'homme fort en premier"

Alors il volera

"Il peut voler" ou "Alors il pourra voler"

qui n'est pas avec moi

"Qui ne me soutient pas" ou "qui ne travaille pas avec moi"

est contre moi

"S'oppose à moi" ou "travaille contre moi"

celui qui ne rassemble pas avec moi disperse

Jésus utilise une métaphore qui fait référence à une personne qui rassemble le troupeau de moutons dans un berger ou les fait se disperser loin du berger. Jésus veut dire que la personne aide à faire que les gens deviennent des disciples de Jésus ou que les gens rejettent Jésus. (Voir: métaphore )

Matthew 12:31

Déclaration de connexion:

Jésus continue de répondre aux pharisiens.

Je te dis

Cela met l'accent sur ce que Jésus dit ensuite.

te dire

Ici, vous êtes au pluriel. Jésus parle directement aux pharisiens, mais il enseigne aussi à la foule. (Voir: formes de vous )

chaque péché et blasphème sera pardonné aux hommes

Cela peut être indiqué sous forme active. AT: "Dieu pardonnera tous les péchés que les gens commettent et toutes les mauvaises choses qu'ils disent" ou "Dieu pardonnera à toute personne qui pèche ou dit des choses mauvaises" (Voir: Actif ou Passif )

le blasphème contre l'Esprit ne sera pas pardonné

Matthew 12:33

Déclaration de connexion:

Jésus continue de répondre aux pharisiens.

Rendre un arbre bon et ses fruits bons, ou rendre l'arbre mauvais et ses fruits mauvais

Les significations possibles sont 1) «Si vous faites un arbre bon, son fruit sera bon, et si vous rendez l’arbre mauvais, son fruit sera mauvais» ou 2) «Si vous considérez un arbre comme bon, ce sera parce que son fruit est bon, et si vous le considérez comme un arbre , ce sera parce que son fruit est mauvais. »C'était un proverbe. Les gens devaient appliquer sa vérité à la façon dont ils peuvent savoir si une personne est bonne ou mauvaise.

bon mauvais

“Sain… malade”

un arbre est reconnu par ses fruits

«Fruit» est une métaphore de ce que fait une personne. Cela peut être indiqué sous forme active. AT: «les gens savent si un arbre est bon ou mauvais en regardant son fruit» ou «les gens savent si une personne est bonne ou mauvaise en regardant les résultats des activités de cette personne» (voir: Actif ou passif et métaphore ) 362 traductionNotes Matthieu 12: 33-35

Vous… vous

Celles-ci sont plurielles et se réfèrent aux pharisiens. (Voir: formes de vous )

Comment peux-tu dire de bonnes choses?

Jésus utilise une question pour réprimander les pharisiens. AT: «on ne peut pas dire de bonnes choses» ou «on ne peut que dire des choses mauvaises» (voir: question rhétorique )

de l'abondance du cœur, sa bouche parle

Ici, «cœur» est un métonyme pour les pensées dans l'esprit d'une personne. La «bouche» est une synecdoche qui représente une personne dans son ensemble. AT: "ce que dit une personne avec sa bouche révèle ce qui est dans sa tête" (voir: Métonymie et Synecdoche )

Le bon homme du bon trésor de son coeur produit ce qui est bon, et le méchant du mauvais trésor de son cœur produit ce qui est mal

Jésus parle du «cœur» comme si c'était un contenant qu'une personne remplit de bonnes ou de mauvaises choses. C'est une métaphore qui signifie que ce que dit une personne révèle à quoi ressemble la personne. Si vous voulez garder cette image, voir l'UDB. Vous pouvez également traduire le sens littéral. AT: "Un homme qui est vraiment bon parlera de bonnes choses, et l'homme qui fait vraiment preuve parlera de mauvaises choses" (Voir: Métaphore )

“Lieux secs” ou “lieux où personne ne vit”

ne le trouve pas

Ici, «ça» fait référence au repos.

Ensuite, il est dit: «Je vais retourner chez moi d'où je suis venu».

Cela peut être traduit comme une déclaration plutôt que comme une citation. AT: "Alors l'esprit impur décide de retourner dans la maison d'où il est venu" 372 traductionNotes Matthieu 12: 43-45

à ma maison d'où je suis venu

Ceci est une métaphore pour la personne en qui vivait l'esprit impur. AT: "à l'endroit que j'ai quitté" (Voir: métaphore )

il trouve que la maison a balayé et mis en ordre

Cela peut être indiqué sous forme active. AT: «l'esprit impur trouve que quelqu'un a balayé la maison et a tout mis dans la maison où il appartient» (voir: Actif ou Passif )

cette maison a balayé et mis en ordre

Encore une fois, «maison» est une métaphore pour la personne chez qui l’esprit impur vivait. Ici, «balayé et mis en ordre» suggère que personne ne vit dans le monde . Jésus veut dire que lorsqu'un esprit impur quitte une personne, la personne doit inviter le Saint-Esprit à vivre en lui ou le démon reviens. (Voir: métaphore )

Ce sera comme ça avec cette génération maléfique

Cela signifie que si les gens de la génération de Jésus ne le croient pas et deviennent ses disciples, ils seront dans une situation pire qu'avant sa venue.

La génération de Jésus sera comme un homme qui a un esprit impur l'ayant quitté, car l'esprit impur retourne avec sept autres esprits et la dernière condition de l'homme est pire que la première. "

Matthew 12:45

Comment la génération de Jésus ressemblera t-elle à un homme avec un esprit impur l'ayant quitté?

La génération de Jésus sera comme un homme qui a un esprit impur l'ayant quitté, car l'esprit impur retourne avec sept autres esprits et la dernière condition de l'homme est pire que la première. "

Matthew 12:50

Selon la parole de Jésus, qui est son frère, sa soeur, sa mère?

Jésus dit que ceux qui font la volonté du Père sont ses frères, ses soeurs, sa mère.


Chapter 12

1 En cette période, Jésus traversait les champs de blé le jour du sabbat. Ses disciples avaient faim et ils commencèrent à cueillir des épis et les mangèrent. 2 Mais quand les pharisiens virent cela, ils dirent à Jésus: « Regardes! Tes disciples font ce que la loi n'autorise pas pendant le sabbat.» 3 Mais Jésus leur dit: « N'avez-vous jamais lu ce que David fit quand il avait faim, lui et les hommes qui étaient avec lui? 4 Comment il entra dans la maison de Dieu et mangea le pain consacré, ce qui était illégal pour lui d'en manger et illégal pour ceux qui étaient avec lui, mais légal seulement pour les sacrificateurs? 5 Et n'avez-vous pas lu dans la loi que, pendant le sabbat, les sacrificateurs dans le temple profanent le sabbat mais ne sont pas coupables? 6 Mais je vous dis un plus grand que le temple est ici. 7 Si vous aviez su ce que ceci signifiait: ''Je désire la miséricorde et non les sacrifices'' vous n'auriez pas condamné des innocents. 8 Car le Fils de l'Homme est Seigneur du sabbat.» 9 Alors Jésus partit de là et entra dans leur synagogue. 10 Voici, il se trouvait un homme qui avait une main sèche. Les Pharisiens demandèrent à Jésus disant: « Est-il légal de guérir pendant le sabbat?» afin de l'accuser de péché. 11 Jésus leur dit: « Quel homme y aurait-il parmi vous, qui ayant seulement une brebis et que cette brebis tombait dans un trou profond pendant le sabbat, ne la tiendrait et retirerait de là? 12 Combien mieux encore vaut un homme par rapport à une brebis! Ainsi, il est légal de faire du bien pendant le sabbat.» 13 Alors Jésus dit à l'homme: « Etends ta main!» Il l' étendit et elle fut guérie, tout comme l'autre main! 14 Mais les pharisiens sortirent et complotèrent contre lui. Ils cherchaient comment ils pourraient le mettre à mort. 15 Comme Jésus s'aperçut de cela, il se retira de là. Plusieurs personnes le suivirent et il les guérit tous. 16 Il leur recommanda de ne point le faire connaitre à d'autres, 17 afin que s'accomplit ce qui avait été dit par Esaie le prophète: 18 « Voici mon serviteur que j'ai choisi, mon bien aimé, celui en qui mon âme prend plaisir. Je mettrai mon Esprit en lui et il annoncera le jugement aux païens. 19 Il ne se rebellera ni ne criera et personne n'entendra non plus sa voix dans les rues. 20 Il ne brisera aucun roseau meurtri, il n'éteindra aucun lumignon qui fume, jusqu'à ce qu'il ait fait triompher la justice. 21 Et les païens auront confiance en son nom.» 22 Alors un homme aveugle et muet, possedé par un démon, fut amené à Jésus. Il le guérit de sorte que l'homme muet parla et se mit à voir. 23 Toute la foule était émerveillée et dit: « Se pourrait-il que cet homme soit le fils de David?» 24 Mais quand les pharisiens entendirent parler de ce miracle, ils dirent: « Cet homme ne chasse les démons que par Beelzébul, le prince des démons.» 25 Mais Jésus connaissant leurs pensées leur dit: « Chaque royaume divisé en lui-même est voué à la destruction, et toute ville ou maison opposée à elle-même ne pourra pas subsister. 26 Si Satan chasse Satan, il est divisé contre lui-même. Comment son royaume pourrait subsister? 27 Et si je chasse les démons par Beelzébul, par qui ceux qui vous suivent les chassent-ils? A cause de ceci, ils seront vos juges. 28 Mais si je chasse les démons par l'Esprit de Dieu, alors le royaume de Dieu est parmi vous. 29 Et comment quelqu'un peut-il entrer dans la maison d'un homme fort et voler tous ses biens sans avoir d'abord lié l'homme fort? Alors, il volera ses biens de sa maison. 30 Celui qui n'est pas avec moi est contre moi et celui qui ne rassemble pas avec moi disperse. 31 Ainsi je vous le dis, tout péché et blasphème seront pardonnés aux hommes, mais le blasphème contre l'Esprit ne sera pas pardonné. 32 Et quiconque dit une parole contre le Fils de l'Homme, cela lui sera pardonné. Mais quiconque parle contre le Saint-Esprit, cela ne lui sera pardonné ni dans ce monde, ni dans celui à venir. 33 Soit vous faites un arbre bon et son fruit bon, soit vous faites l'arbre mauvais et son fruit mauvais, car l'arbre est reconnu par son fruit. 34 Vous, race de vipères, méchants que vous êtes, comment pouvez-vous dire de bonnes choses? Car c'est de l'abondance du coeur que la bouche parle. 35 L' homme bon produit ce qui est bon des bons trésors de son coeur, et l'homme mauvais produit ce qui est mauvais des mauvais trésors de son coeur. 36 Et je vous dis qu'au jour du jugement, les hommes rendront compte de chaque parole vaine qu'ils auront dite. 37 Car par vos paroles, vous serez justifiés et par vos paroles vous serez condamnés. 38 Alors, certains scribes et pharisiens répondirent à Jésus et dirent: « Maître, nous souhaitons voir un signe venant de toi.» 39 Mais Jésus répondit et leur dit: « Une génération mauvaise et adultère cherche un signe. Mais aucun signe ne lui sera donné excepté le signe de Jonas le prophète. 40 Car comme Jonas fut trois jours et trois nuits dans le ventre du grand poisson, de même le Fils de l'Homme sera trois jours et trois nuits dans la profondeur de la terre. 41 Les hommes de Ninive se lèveront le jour du jugement avec cette génération et la condamneront. Car ils se repentirent lors de la prédication de Jonas et voici, quelqu'un de plus grand que Jonas est ici. 42 La Reine du Sud se lèvera au jour du jugement avec les hommes de cette génération et les condamnera. Elle vint des extrémités de la terre pour écouter la sagesse de Salomon et voyez, il y a ici quelqu'un de plus grand que Salomon. 43 Quand un esprit impur sort d'un homme, il passe par les endroits arides et cherche du repos, mais ne le trouve pas. 44 Alors il dit: ''Je retournerai dans ma maison d'où je suis sorti.'' Etant retourné, il trouve que cette maison est nettoyée et mise en ordre. 45 Alors il repart et prend avec lui sept autres esprits plus mauvais que lui-même, et tous reviennent vivre là. Alors la dernière condition de cet homme devient pire que la première. Il en sera ainsi avec cette génération mauvaise.» 46 Pendant que Jésus parlait encore à la foule, voici, sa mère et ses frères se tenaient dehors, cherchant à lui parler. 47 Quelqu'un lui dit: « Voici, ta mère et tes frères sont dehors et cherchent à te parler.» 48 Mais Jésus répondit et dit à celui qui le lui dit: « Qui est ma mère? Et qui sont mes frères?» 49 Puis, il étendit sa main vers ses disciples et dit: « Voici, ici sont ma mère et mes frères! 50 Car quiconque fait la volonté de mon Père qui est dans les cieux, cette personne est mon frère, et ma sœur, et ma mère.»

Chapter 13

1 En ce jour, Jésus quitta la maison où il enseignait et s'assit au bord de la mer. 2 Une foule immense l'entourait et il alla dans une barque et s'y assit. Toute la foule se tint sur le rivage. 3 Puis Jésus leur dit beaucoup de choses en paraboles. Il dit: « Voici un semeur est sorti pour semer. 4 Pendant qu'il semait, des graines tombèrent sur le bord de la route. Les oiseaux vinrent et les mangèrent. 5 D'autres graines tombèrent dans un endroit rocailleux avec moins de terre. Aussitôt elles poussèrent, parce que la terre n'était pas profonde. 6 Mais quand le soleil se leva, les plantes furent brûlées car elles étaient sans racines, et elles séchèrent. 7 D'autres tombèrent dans les épines. Les épines grandirent et les étouffèrent. 8 D'autres graines tombèrent sur la bonne terre et produirent des graines, certaines cent fois plus, d'autres soixante et d'autres trente. 9 Que celui qui a des oreilles entende.» 10 Les disciples vinrent à Jésus et lui dirent: « Pourquoi parles-tu à la foule en paraboles?» 11 Jésus répondit et dit: « À vous, il a été donné le privilège de comprendre les mystères du royaume des cieux, mais cela ne leur a pas été donné. 12 Car à celui qui a, on en donnera d'avantage, pour qu'il soit dans l'abondance. Mais à celui qui n'a pas, on retirera même ce qu'il possède. 13 C'est pourquoi je leur parle en paraboles, car même s'ils voient, ils ne voient pas vraiment, et même s'ils entendent, ils n'entendent pas vraiment, et ne comprennent rien non plus. 14 Et pour eux s'accomplit cette prophétie d'Esaïe: " Vous entendrez mais vous ne comprendrez point, et vous verrez mais vous ne percevrez point. 15 Car le cœur de ce peuple est devenu sans vie, leurs oreilles trop dures pour entendre, et ils ont fermé leurs yeux pour ne pas voir, ou leurs oreilles pour ne pas entendre, ou leurs cœurs pour ne pas comprendre, de peur de revenir et que je ne les guérisse. " 16 Bénis soient vos yeux car ils voient, et vos oreilles car elles entendent. 17 En vérité, je vous le dis, plusieurs prophètes et plusieurs justes ont voulu voir ces choses que vous voyez, mais ne les ont pas vues, et ont voulu entendre ce que vous entendez, mais ne les ont pas entendues. 18 Écoutez donc la parabole du semeur. 19 Lorsque quelqu'un entend la parole du royaume et ne la comprend pas, alors le malin vient et vole ce qui a été semé dans son cœur. C'est le cas des graines tombées sur le bord de la route. 20 Les graines tombées dans l'endroit rocailleux, c'est celui qui entend la parole et la reçoit immédiatement avec une grande joie, 21 est sans racines et endure pour peu de temps. Quand vient la tribulation ou la persécution à cause de la parole, il trébuche immédiatement. 22 Celles tombées dans les épines, c'est celui qui écoute la parole mais les soucis du monde et la déception des richesses étouffe la parole, et il devient improductif. 23 Les graines tombées dans la bonne terre, c'est celui qui entend la parole et la comprend; c'est celui qui en vérité produit du fruit et le cultive; certains cent fois plus, d'autres soixante et d'autres trente, et l'entretient.» 24 Jésus leur proposa une autre parabole et dit: « Le royaume des cieux est semblable à un homme qui sema de bonnes graines dans son champ. 25 Et pendant que les gens dormaient, son ennemi vint et sema de mauvaises graines parmi le blé et s'en alla. 26 Lorsque les graines germèrent et produisirent leurs fruits, alors les mauvaises herbes apparurent aussi. 27 Les serviteurs du propriétaire du champ vinrent et lui dirent: " Maître, n'as tu pas semé des bonnes graines dans ton champ? Pourquoi y trouve t-on des mauvaises herbes? 28 Et il leur dit: " C'est l'œuvre de l'ennemi. " Et les serviteurs lui répliquèrent: " Veux tu que nous allions les arracher? " 29 Le maître répondit: " Non, de peur que vous ne déraciniez le blé en les arrachant. 30 Laissez-les grandir ensemble jusqu'à la récolte. Au moment de la récolte, je dirai aux moissonneurs: " Enlevez d'abord les mauvaises herbes, attachez-les, puis entassez-les pour qu'elles soient brulées. Puis, rassemblez le blé dans mon grenier. '' 31 Puis Jésus leur présenta une autre parabole et dit: « Le royaume des cieux est semblable à une graine de moutarde qu'un homme prit et planta dans son champ. 32 Cette graine est en fait la plus petite de toutes les graines. Mais lorsqu'elle grandit, elle devient le plus grand arbre de tout le jardin, au point où les oiseaux viennent faire leurs nids dans ses branches.» 33 Jésus leur raconta une autre parabole et dit: « Le royaume de cieux est semblable à du levain qu'une femme prit, mélangea avec trois mesures de farine jusqu'à ce que la pâte se lève.» 34 Jésus enseigna la foule et lui dit toutes ces choses en paraboles. Il ne leur disait rien sans paraboles. 35 Il en était ainsi afin que s'accomplisse ce qui avait été annoncé par le prophète quand il dit: « J'ouvrirai ma bouche en paraboles, je dirai des choses qui étaient cachées depuis la fondation du monde.» 36 Après que Jésus eut renvoyé la foule, il alla dans la maison. Alors les disciples s'approchèrent de lui et dirent: « Explique-nous la parabole de l'ivraie qui a poussé dans le champ.» 37 Il répondit: « Celui qui a semé la bonne semence c'est le Fils de l'Homme. 38 Le champ représente ce monde. Les bonnes semences ce sont les fils du royaume. L'ivraie ce sont les fils du malin. 39 L'ennemi qui a semé l'ivraie représente le diable. La moisson c'est la fin du monde. Les moissonneurs ce sont les anges. 40 Ainsi, comme les mauvaises herbes sont entassées et brulées au feu, il en sera ainsi à la fin du monde. 41 Le Fils de l'Homme enverra ses anges, et ils arracheront de son royaume tout objet de péché, et ceux qui commettent l'iniquité, 42 et les jetteront dans la fournaise de feu ardent, là il y aura des pleurs et des grincements de dents. 43 Alors, les justes brilleront comme le soleil dans le royaume de leur père. Que celui qui a des oreilles entende.» 44 « Le royaume des cieux est encore semblable à un trésor caché dans un champ. Un homme le trouva et le cacha. Rempli de joie, il va vendre tout ce qu'il possède, et achète ce champ. 45 Encore, le royaume des cieux est pareil à un marchand à la recherche des perles précieuses. 46 Lorsqu'il trouva une perle de très grande valeur, il alla vendre tout ce qu'il possédait et l'acheta. 47 Le royaume des cieux est comparable à un filet que l'on jeta dans la mer, et qui ramassa toutes sortes de poissons; utiles comme inutiles. Une fois le filet rempli, les pêcheurs le retirèrent sur le rivage. 48 Ensuite, ils s'assirent et assemblèrent la bonne partie dans des paniers, mais les mauvais poissons furent jetés. 49 Il en sera ainsi à la fin du monde. Les anges viendront là où Dieu jugera les gens pour séparer les méchants des justes. 50 Ils les jèteront dans la fournaise de feu, où il y aura des pleurs et des grincements de dents. 51 Avez-vous compris toutes ces choses?» Les disciples lui répondirent: 52 « Oui, nous avons compris.» Puis Jésus leur dit: « Ainsi, tout scribe qui a été instruit dans le royaume des cieux est semblable à un homme qui possède une maison, qui fait sortir de vieilles et de nouvelles choses de son trésor.» 53 Après que Jésus eût fini de dire toutes ces choses, il quitta cet endroit. 54 Ensuite Jésus se rendit dans sa région et enseignait le peuple dans leur synagogue. Ceux qui l'entendaient étaient étonnés et disaient: « D'où viennent la sagesse de cet homme et ces miracles? 55 Cet homme n'est-il pas le fils du charpentier? Marie n'est-elle pas sa mère? Jacques, Joseph, Simon et Judas ne sont-ils pas ses frères? 56 Et ses soeurs aussi ne sont-elle pas toutes parmi nous? Alors d'où cet homme tire-t-il toutes ces choses?» 57 Ils se sentaient offensés par Lui, mais Jésus leur dit: « Ce n'est que dans son propre pays et dans sa propre maison que le prophète n'est pas honoré.» 58 ll ne fit pas beaucoup de miracles en ce lieu, à cause de leur incrédulité.

C'est pourquoi ces puissances agissent en lui.» 3 En effet, Hérode avait arrêté Jean, l'avait lié, et l'avait mis en prison à cause d'Hérodiade, la femme de son frère Philippe. 4 Parce que Jean lui avait dit: « Il ne t'est pas permis selon la loi de la prendre pour femme.» 5 Hérode aurait voulu le mettre à mort, mais il craignait le peuple, puisqu'ils le considéraient comme un prophète. 6 Mais quand le jour d'anniversaire d'Hérode arriva, la fille d'Hérodiade dança au milieu des personnes présentes et cela plut à Hérode. 7 En réponse, il fit une promesse avec serment, de lui donner tout ce qu'elle demanderait. 8 Après avoir reçu des intructions de sa mère, elle dit: « Donne-moi ici, sur un plateau la tête de Jean Baptiste.» 9 Le roi fut très troublé par sa demande, mais à cause de son serment, et à cause de tous ceux qui étaient présents au dîner avec lui, il ordonna que ceci soit fait. 10 Il envoya couper la tête de Jean en prison. 11 Et sa tête fut apportée dans un plateau et remise à la fille qui la porta à sa mère. 12 Puis, ses disciples arrivèrent, prirent le corps et l'enterrèrent. Après ceci, ils allèrent et informèrent Jésus. 13 Quand Jésus apprit cela, il se retira de là, dans une pirogue, pour aller dans un lieu isolé. Quand la foule apprit cela, les gens venant des villes le suivirent à pieds. 14 Et Jésus se plaça devant eux et vit une grande foule. Il eut compassion d'eux et guérit leurs malades. 15 Quand le soir fut venu, les disciples vinrent à lui et dirent: « Ce lieu est désert, et il se fait déjà tard. Renvoie la foule pour qu'ils puissent aller dans les villages s'acheter à manger.» 16 Mais Jésus leur dit: « Ils n'ont pas besoin de s'en aller. Donnez leur vous-mêmes quelque chose à manger.» 17 Ils lui diren t: « Mais nous n'avons ici que cinq pains et deux poissons.» 18 Jésus dit: « Amenez-les moi.» 19 Jésus dit alors à la foule de s'asseoir sur l'herbe. Il prit les cinq pains et les deux poissons. Ayant levé les yeux vers le ciel, il bénit les pains et les rompit. Puis il les donna aux disciples, qui les distribuèrent à la foule. 20 Tous mangèrent et furent rassasiés. Puis ils emportèrent les restes de pains - douze paniers pleins. 21 Ceux qui avaient mangé étaient environ cinq mille hommes, hormis les femmes et les enfants. 22 Immédiatement après, il fit monter les disciples dans la pirogue pour qu'ils le précèdent de l'autre côté, pendant que lui-même renverrait la foule. 23 Après qu'il eût renvoyé la foule, il monta tout seul sur la colline pour prier. Quand le soir fut venu, il était là seul. 24 Mais la barque, au milieu de la mer, était presqu'incontrôlable à cause des vagues, car le vent venait en sens inverse. 25 A la quatrième veille de la nuit, Jésus s'approcha d'eux, marchant sur la mer. 26 Lorsque les disciples le virent marchant sur les eaux, ils furent térrifiés et dirent: « C'est un fantôme», et ils crièrent de peur. 27 Mais Jésus leur parla sur-le-champ et leur dit: « Courage! C'est moi! N'ayez pas peur.» 28 Pierre lui répondit et dit: « Seigneur, si c'est toi, ordonne-moi de venir vers toi en marchant sur l'eau.» 29 Jésus dit: « Viens!» Alors, Pierre sortit de la barque et marcha sur les eaux pour aller vers Jésus. 30 Mais quand Pierre vit le vent, il eut peur. Comme il commençait à s'enfoncer dans l'eau, il s'écria: « Seigneur, sauve-moi!» 31 Aussitôt, Jésus étendit sa main et attrapa Pierre, et lui dit: « Homme de peu de foi, pourquoi as-tu douté?» 32 Et quand Jésus et Pierre montèrent dans la barque, le vent s'arrêta de souffler. 33 Alors les disciples qui étaient dans la barque adorèrent Jésus et dirent: « En vérité, tu es le Fils de Dieu!» 34 Quand ils eurent traversé, ils accostèrent à Génésareth. 35 Quand les hommes de ce lieu reconnurent Jésus, ils envoyèrent des messages partout dans la région environnante, et ils lui apportèrent quiconque était malade. 36 Ils le supplièrent afin de toucher juste le bord de son vêtement, et tous ceux qui le touchèrent furent guéris.

Chapter 15

1 Puis quelques pharisiens et scribes venaient à Jésus de Jérusalem. Ils dirent: 2 « Pourquoi tes disciples transgressent-ils la tradition des anciens? Ils ne lavent pas leurs mains avant de manger.» 3 Jésus répondit et leur dit: « Et vous, pourquoi transgressez-vous le commandement de Dieu pour l'intérêt de vos traditions? 4 Car Dieu a dit: " Honore ton père et ta mère ", et " Quiconque maudit son père ou sa mère mourra certainement ". 5 Mais vous dites aux gens: " Quiconque dit à son père ou à sa mère: " L'aide que j'aurais pu vous donner je l'ai promise à Dieu ". 6 Cette personne-là n'a plus besoin d'honorer son père. Ainsi, vous avez supprimé la parole de Dieu au profit de vos traditions.» 7 « Hypocrites! Esaïe avait dit la vérité lorsqu'il a prophétisé à propos de vous: 8 '' Ces gens m'honorent du bout des lèvres mais leurs coeurs sont éloignés de moi. 9 Ils m'adorent en vain, par ce qu'en guise de doctrine, ils enseignent des commandements d'hommes ''». 10 Puis il appela la foule à lui et lui dit: « Ecoutez et comprenez. 11 Rien de ce qui rentre dans la bouche d'une personne ne la souille. Mais toute parole qui sort de sa bouche; c'est ce qui la souille.» 12 Puis les disciples vinrent et dirent à Jésus: « Sais-tu que les pharisiens étaient offensés en entendant tes propos?» 13 Alors Jésus leur répondit: « Toute plante que mon père n'a pas semée sera déracinée. 14 Ne prêtez pas attention à eux: ce sont des guides aveugles. Si un aveugle conduit un autre, les deux tomberont dans un fossée.» 15 Pierre répondit à Jésus: « Explique nous cette parabole.» 16 Jésus répliqua: « Ne comprenez-vous aussi toujours pas? 17 Ne voyez-vous pas que tout ce qui rentre dans la bouche passe dans l'estomac puis passe dans les latrines? 18 Mais les choses qui sortent de la bouche proviennent du coeur. Ce sont ces choses qui souillent une personne. 19 Car c'est du coeur que proviennent les mauvaises pensées, le meurtre, l'adultère, l'immoralité sexuelle, le vol, les faux témoignages et les insultes. 20 Telles sont les choses qui souillent une personne. Mais manger sans se laver les mains ne souille pas une personne.» 21 Puis Jésus partit de là, et se retira dans la région de Tyr et de Sidon. 22 Et une femme Canaanéenne vivant dans cette région vint à Jésus. Elle cria: « Aie pitié de moi, Seigneur, fils de David; Ma fille est très tourmentée par un démon.» 23 Mais Jésus ne lui répondit pas. Ses disciples vinrent le supplier, disant: « Renvoie-la car elle crie après nous.» 24 Mais Jésus répondit: « Je ne suis envoyé que pour les brebis égarées de la maison d'Israël.» 25 Mais elle vint et se prosterna devant lui, disant: « Seigneur, aide-moi.» 26 Il répondit et dit: « Il n'est pas bien pour quelqu'un de prendre le pain des enfants et de le jeter aux chiens.» 27 Elle dit: « Oui, Seigneur, mais même les chiens mangent les miettes qui tombent de la table de leurs maîtres.» 28 Jésus lui répondit: « Femme, ta foi est grande. Que cela soit fait pour toi comme tu le désires.» Et sa fille guérit à cette heure. 29 Jésus quitta cette place et partit du côté de la mer de Galilée, puis il gravit une colline et s'assit là-bas. 30 Une grande foule vint à lui, et aussi, des estropiés, des aveugles, des muets, et des paralysés, et plusieurs autres qui étaient malades. Ils les présentèrent aux pieds de Jésus et il les guérit. 31 Ainsi, la foule fut émerveillée quand ils virent les muets parler, les paralysés guéris, les estropiés marcher, et les aveugles recouvrer la vue. Ils louèrent le Dieu d'Israël. 32 Jésus appela ses disciples et leur dit: « J'ai pitié de ces gens, parce qu'ils continuent d'être avec moi et ils n'ont rien à manger. Je ne veux pas les renvoyer à jeûn, de peur qu'ils ne s'évanouissent sur le chemin.» 33 Les disciples lui répondirent: « Où pourrions-nous trouver assez de pains dans cet endroit désert pour satisfaire une si grande foule?» 34 Jésus leur dit: « Combien de pains avez vous?» Ils dirent: « Sept, et un peu de petits poissons.» 35 Puis Jésus ordonna à la foule de s'asseoir à même le sol. 36 Il prit les sept pains et les poissons. Après avoir rendu grâce, il rompit les pains et donna les morceaux aux disciples. Les disciples les donnèrent à la foule. 37 Tous mangèrent et furent satisfaits. Ils ramassèrent les morceaux restants qui remplirent sept paniers. 38 Quatre mille hommes mangèrent, sans compter les femmes et les enfants. 39 Puis Jésus renvoya la foule et monta dans une barque, puis partit dans la région de Magadan.

Chapter 16

1 Les Pharisiens et les Sadducéens vinrent le tester en lui demandant de leurs montrer un signe venant du ciel. 2 Mais il leur répondit: «Quand vient le soir, vous dites: «Il fera beau temps, car le ciel est rouge.» 3 Et le matin vous dites: «Il y aura de l'orage aujourd'hui, car le ciel est rouge et sombre. Vous savez comment interprèter l'aspect du ciel, mais vous n'arrivez pas à interprèter les signes des temps. 4 Une génération méchante et adultère cherche un signe, mais aucun signe ne lui sera donné, excepté celui de Jonas.» Puis Jésus les quitta et s'en alla. 5 Quand les disciples atteignirent l'autre bord, ils avaient oublié de prendre des pains. 6 Jésus leur dit: «Gardez-vous avec soin du levain des Pharisiens et des Sadducéens.» 7 Les disciples raisonnèrent entre eux et dirent: «C'est parce que nous n'avons pas pris de pain.» 8 Jésus étant avertit de cela, dit: «Vous, gens de peu de foi, pourquoi raisonnez-vous entre vous en disant que c'est parce que vous n'avez pas pris de pains! 9 Ne percevez-vous pas et ne vous rappelez-vous pas des cinq pains pour les cinq mille hommes, et combien de paniers avez vous ramassés? 10 Ou encore des sept pains pour les quatre milles hommes et combien de paniers vous avez ramassés? 11 Comment ne comprenez- vous pas que je ne vous parlais pas de pain? Prenez garde et méfiez vous du levain des Pharisiens et des Sadducéens. 12 Alors ils comprirent qu'il ne leur demandait pas de se méfier du levain qu'on met dans du pain mais de se méfier de l' enseignement des Pharisiens et des Sadducéens. 13 Lorsque Jésus vint sur le territoire de Césarée de Philippe, il demanda à ses disciples: «Qui dit- on que le Fils de l'Homme est?» 14 Ils dirent: «Certains disent Jean-Baptiste, d'autres Elie, et d'autres Jérémie, ou l'un des prophètes.» 15 Il leur dit: «Mais vous, qui dites-vous que je suis?» 16 Simon-Pierre répondit: «Tu es le Christ, le Fils du Dieu vivant.» 17 Jésus répondit: «Béni es-tu, Simon fils de Jonas, car ce ne sont pas la chair et le sang qui t'ont revélé ceci, mais mon Père qui est dans les cieux. 18 Je te dis aussi que tu es Pierre, et sur cette pierre je bâtirai mon Église. Les portes du séjour des morts ne prévaudront pas contre elle. 19 Je te donnerai les clés du Royaume des cieux. Tout ce que tu lieras sur cette terre sera lié dans les cieux, et tout ce que tu délieras sur cette terre sera aussi délié dans les cieux.» 20 Alors Jésus ordonna aux disciples de ne dire à personne qu'il était le Christ. 21 Dès lors, Jésus commença à dire à ses disciples qu'il doit aller à Jérusalem, souffrir beaucoup de choses de la main des anciens; des principaux sacrificateurs et des scribes, qu'il faut qu'il soit tué et réssuscité le troisième jour. 22 Alors Pierre le prit à part et le reprit: «Que ceci puisse s'éloigner de toi, Seigneur, Que ceci ne t'arrive jamais.» 23 Mais Jésus se retourna et dit à Pierre: «Arrière de moi, Satan! Tu es une pierre d'achoppement pour moi, car tu ne te soucies pas des choses de Dieu, mais des choses des hommes.» 24 Alors Jésus dit à ses disciples: « Si quelqu'un veut me suivre, il doit se renier lui-même, prendre sa croix et me suivre. 25 Car quiconque veut sauver sa vie la perdra, et quiconque perd sa vie à cause de moi la retrouvera. 26 Car que servira t-il à un homme s'il gagne le monde entier mais perd sa vie? Qu'est-ce qu'une personne peut donner en échange pour sa vie? 27 Car le Fils de l'Homme viendra dans la gloire de son Père avec ses anges. Puis il récompensera chacun selon ses oeuvres. 28 Je vous le dis en vérité, il y a certains de vous ici présents, qui ne goûteront pas à la mort, sans avoir vu le Fils de l'Homme venir dans son royaume.»

Chapter 17

1 Six jours plus tard, Jésus prit avec lui Pierre, Jacques, et Jean son frère, et les amenènent à l'écart sur une haute montagne. 2 Il fut transfiguré devant eux. Son visage resplendît comme le soleil, et ses vêtements devinrent brillants comme la lumière. 3 Et voici, Moïse et Elie leur apparurent, s'entretenant avec lui. 4 Pierre répondît à Jésus: «Seigneur, il est bon pour nous d'être ici. Si tu le veux, je dresserai ici trois abris, un pour toi, un pour Moïse, et un pour Elie.» 5 Comme il parlait encore, voici, une nuée brillante les couvrit, une voix venant de la nuée dit: «Voici mon Fils bien-aimé en qui je me plais. Ecoutez-le.» 6 Quand les disciples entendirent cela, ils tombèrent sur leur face et étaient animés d'une grande frayeur. 7 Alors Jésus vint, les toucha et dit: «Levez-vous, n'ayez pas peur.» 8 Alors ils regardèrent en haut mais ne virent personne excepté Jésus. 9 Comme ils descendaient de la montagne, Jésus leur ordonna en disant: «Ne rapportez cette vision à personne jusqu'à ce que le Fils de l'Homme soit réssucité des morts.» 10 Ces disciples lui demandèrent: «Pourquoi donc les scribes disent-ils qu'il est nécessaire qu'Elie vienne premièrement?» 11 Jésus leur répondit: « En réalité, Elie viendra et restaurera toutes choses. 12 Mais je vous dis: Elie est déjà venu, mais ils ne l'ont pas reconnu. Au contraire, ils lui ont fait tout ce qu'ils voulaient. De la même manière, le Fils de l'Homme souffrira entre leurs mains.» 13 Alors les disciples comprirent qu'il leur parlait de Jean Baptiste. 14 Lorsqu'ils retournèrent vers la foule, un homme vint vers Jésus, se mit à genoux devant lui 15 et dit: «Seigneur, aie pitié de mon fils car il est épileptique et souffre beaucoup. En effet, il tombe souvent dans le feu et dans l'eau. 16 Je l'ai amené à tes disciples mais ils n'ont pas pu le guérir.» 17 Jésus répondit: «Génération incrédule et corrompue, jusqu'à devrai je rester avec vous? Jusqu'à quand vous supporterai-je? Amenez-le-moi ici.» 18 Jésus menaça le démon et il sortit de lui. Le garçon fut guéri à partir cette heure même. 19 Alors les disciples s'approchèrent de Jésus en privé et dirent: «Pourquoi n'avons-nous pas pu le chasser?» 20 Jésus leur dit: «A cause de votre petite foi. Car je vous le dis en vérité, si vous avez la foi aussi petite qu'un grain de moutarde, vous pourrez dire à cette montagne, "transporte-toi d'ici et va la-bas", elle se transportera et rien ne vous sera impossible.» 21 [Les meilleures copies anciennes ommettent le verset Note: mais ce genre de démon ne sort que par la prière et le jeûne.] 22 Alors qu'ils étaient en Galilée, Jésus dit à ses disciples: «Le Fils de l'Homme sera livré entre les mains des hommes; 23 et ils le tueront, et le troisième jour il ressuscitera.» Les disciples devinrent très tristes. 24 Lorsqu'ils furent arrivés à Capernaüm, les hommes qui collectaient les taxes de demi-shekel pour le temple vinrent à Pierre et dirent: «Votre maître ne paie-t-il pas les taxes de demi-shekel?» 25 Il dit: «Si.» Quand Pierre entra dans la maison, Jésus prit le premier la parole et lui dit: «Qu'en penses-tu Simon, les rois de la terre, de qui reçoivent-ils les taxes ou tributs? De leurs sujets ou des étrangers?» 26 Quand Pierre répondit: «des étrangers» Jésus lui dit: «Alors, les sujets sont donc exempts de les payer. 27 Mais pour ne pas faire pécher les collecteurs d'impots, va à la mer, jete l'hameçon et tire le poisson qui vient en premier; quand tu ouvriras sa bouche, tu verras un shekel. Prend-le et donne-le aux collecteurs d'impôts pour toi et moi.»

Matthew 18:1

Informations générales:

C'est le début d'une nouvelle partie de l'histoire qui traverse Matthieu 18:35 , où Jésus enseigne la vie dans le royaume des cieux. Ici, Jésus utilise un petit enfant pour enseigner aux disciples.

Qui est le plus grand

"Qui est le plus important" ou "Qui parmi nous sera le plus important"

dans le royaume des cieux

L'expression «royaume des cieux» fait référence à la règle de Dieu en tant que roi. Cette phrase est utilisée uniquement dans le livre de Matthew. Si possible, gardez «paradis» dans votre traduction. AT: «dans le royaume de Dieu» ou «quand notre Dieu au ciel établit son autorité sur la terre »(Voir: Métonymie )

Je vous le dis en vérité

"Je vous dis la vérité." Cela met l'accent sur ce que Jésus dit ensuite.

à moins que vous ne tourniez… les enfants, vous n'entrerez en aucun cas

Cela peut être énoncé sous une forme positive. AT: "il faut changer… les enfants pour entrer" (voir: Double Négatifs )

devenir comme des petits enfants

Jésus utilise une comparaison pour enseigner aux disciples qu'ils ne devraient pas se préoccuper de qui est le plus important. Ils devraient se préoccuper de devenir humble comme un enfant. (Voir: Simile ) 529 Matthieu 18: 1-3 TraductionNotes

entrer dans le royaume des cieux

L'expression «royaume des cieux» fait référence à la règle de Dieu en tant que roi. Cette phrase est utilisée uniquement dans le livre de Matthew. Si possible, gardez «paradis» dans votre traduction. AT: "entrer dans le royaume de Dieu" ou "appartenir à notre Dieu dans le ciel quand il établit sa domination sur la terre »(Voir: Métonymie )

Matthew 18:4

Déclaration de connexion:

Jésus continue d'enseigner aux disciples qu'ils doivent être humbles comme un enfant s'ils veulent être important dans le royaume de Dieu. (Voir: Simile )

est le plus grand

"Est le plus important" ou "sera le plus important"

dans le royaume des cieux

L'expression «royaume des cieux» fait référence à la règle de Dieu en tant que roi. Cette phrase est utilisée uniquement dans le livre de Matthew. Si possible, gardez «paradis» dans votre traduction. AT: «dans le royaume de Dieu» ou «quand notre Dieu au ciel établit son autorité sur la terre »(Voir: Métonymie )

en mon nom

Ici, «mon nom» fait référence à la personne entière. AT: "à cause de moi" ou "parce qu'il est mon disciple" (Voir: métonymie )

Celui qui, en mon nom, me reçoit

Jésus veut dire que c'est la même chose que de l'accueillir. AT: «Quand quelqu'un… en mon nom, c'est comme s'il me souhaite la bienvenue »ou« Quand quelqu'un… en mon nom, c'est comme s'il m'accueillait » 531 Matthieu 18: 4-6 TraductionNotes

une grande meule devrait être accrochée autour de son cou et qu'il devrait être enfoncé dans les profondeurs de la mer

Cela peut être indiqué sous forme active. AT: «si quelqu'un a mis une grande meule autour du cou et a jeté lui dans la mer profonde »(voir: actif ou passif )

meule

Il s'agit d'une grosse pierre circulaire lourde utilisée pour moudre le grain de blé en farine. AT: «une pierre lourde»

Matthew 18:7

Déclaration de connexion:

Jésus continue d'utiliser un petit enfant pour enseigner les disciples et met en garde contre les conséquences terribles de causer des enfants à pécher.

au monde

Chapter 18

1 En ce moment même, les disciples vinrent à Jésus et dirent: «Qui est le plus grand dans le royaume des cieux?» 2 Jésus appela vers lui un petit enfant et le plaça au milieu d'eux 3 et dit: «En vérité je vous le dis, si vous ne changez, et ne devenez comme de petits enfants, vous n'entrerez d'aucune manière dans le royaume des cieux. 4 Pour cela, quiconque s'humilie comme ce petit enfant, celui-là est le plus grand dans le royaume des cieux. 5 Et quiconque reçoit l'un de ces petits enfants en mon nom, me reçoit. 6 Mais quiconque pousse l'un de ces petits qui croit en moi à pécher, il serait mieux pour lui qu'on attache à son cou une grosse pierre et qu'on le jette dans la profondeur de la mer. 7 Malheur au monde à cause des temps difficiles! Car il est nécessaire que ces choses arrivent, mais malheur à la personne par laquelle ces choses arriveront! 8 Si ta main ou ton pied est pour toi une occasion de chute, arrache-le et jete-le loin de toi. C'est mieux pour toi d'entrer dans le royaume des cieux manchot ou estropié, que d'être jeté dans le feu éternel ayant les deux mains et les deux pieds. 9 Si ton oeil est pour toi une occasion de chute, arrache-le et jête-le loin de toi. C'est mieux pour toi d'entrer dans le royaume des cieux avec un oeil que d'être jeté dans le feu éternel avec les deux yeux. 10 Prenez garde, afin de ne pas mépriser l'un de ces tous petits. Car je vous le dis, dans les cieux, leurs anges regardent constamment la face de mon Père qui est dans les cieux. 11 Car le Fils de l'Homme est venu sauver ce qui était perdu. 12 Que pensez-vous? Si quelqu'un a cent brebis et l'une s'égare, ne laisse t-il pas les quatre-vingt-dix-neuf autres sur la montagne pour aller chercher celle qui est égarée? 13 Et s'il la trouve, en vérité je vous le dis, il se réjouit d'avantage à son sujet plus que les quatre-vingt-dix-neuf qui ne se sont pas égarées. 14 De même, ce n'est pas la volonté de votre Père qui est dans les cieux que l'un de ces plus petits périsse. 15 Si ton frère pèche contre toi, va, montre lui son tord entre toi et lui seuls. S'il t'écoute, tu l'as gagné. 16 Mais s'il ne t'écoute pas, prends avec toi un ou deux autres frères afin que par la bouche de deux ou trois témoins, la vérité soit établie. 17 Et s'il refuse de les écouter, amène l'affaire au niveau de l'église. S'il refuse aussi d'écouter l'église, qu'il soit considéré comme un païen et un collecteur d'impôts. 18 En vérité, je vous le dis: tout ce que vous lierez sur la terre sera lié dans les cieux et tout ce que vous délierez sur la terre sera délié dans les cieux. 19 Encore je vous le dis, si deux d'entre vous s'accordent sur la terre sur quelque chose qu'ils demandent, il le leur sera accordé par mon Père qui est dans les cieux. 20 Car là où deux ou trois sont rassemblés en mon nom, je suis au milieu d'eux.» 21 Alors, Pierre vint et dit à Jésus, «Seigneur, combien de fois pardonnerai-je à mon frère quand il pèchera contre moi? Jusqu'à sept fois?» 22 Jésus lui dit: «Je ne vous ai pas dis sept fois, mais jusqu'à soixante-dix fois sept. 23 Alors, le royaume des cieux est semblable à un roi qui voulait faire l'inventaire avec ses serviteurs. 24 Quand il commença l'inventaire on lui amena un serviteur qui lui devait dix mille talents. 25 Mais puisqu'il n'avait pas de quoi payer, son maître ordonna qu'on le vende avec sa femme, ses enfants et tout ce qu'il possédait pour rembourser la dette. 26 Le serviteur tomba, se prosterna devant lui et dit: ''Maître, aîes de la patience envers moi et je paierai tout." 27 Alors le maître de ce serviteur, étant touché de compassion, le relâcha et lui pardonna toute la dette. 28 Mais ce serviteur sortit et trouva un de ses collègues serviteurs qui lui devait cent deniers. Il l'attrappa, le prit par la gorge et dit: ''Paie moi ce que tu me dois.'' 29 Mais son collègue serviteur tomba et l'implora en disant: ''Aîes de la patience envers moi et je paierai.'' 30 Mais le premier serviteur refusa; il alla plutôt le jeter en prison jusqu'à ce qu'il lui paie ce qu'il devait. 31 Quand ses collègues serviteurs virent ce qui s'était passé, ils étaient très attristés; ils vinrent et racontèrent à leur maître tout ce qui s'etait passé. 32 Alors le maître de ce serviteur l'appela et lui dit: ''Toi, méchant serviteur, je t'avais pardonné toute cette dette parce que tu m'avais supplié. 33 N'aurais-tu pas dû avoir de la compassion pour ton collègue serviteur comme moi j'avais eu de la compassion pour toi?" 34 Le maître étant irrité, le livra aux bourreaux jusqu'à ce qu'il eut payé tout ce qu'il devait. 35 C'est ainsi que mon Père céleste vous traitera si chacun de vous ne pardonne pas à son frère de tout son coeur.»

Chapter 19

1 Lorsque Jésus eut achevé ces paroles, il quitta la Galilée, et alla dans le territoire de la Judée au delà du fleuve du Jourdain. 2 Une grande foule le suivit et il les guérit. 3 Les Pharisiens l'abordèrent, l'éprouvèrent en lui disant: «Est-il permis selon la loi à un homme de divorcer de sa femme pour n'importe quelle cause?» 4 Jésus répondit et dit: «N'avez-vous pas lu que celui qui les a créés depuis le commencement, les fit mâle et femelle? 5 Et qu'il dit aussi: "Pour cette raison, l'homme quittera son père et sa mère et s'attachera à sa femme, et les deux deviendront une seule chair?" 6 Ainsi, ils ne sont plus deux, mais une seul chair. Par conséquent, ce que Dieu a uni, que personne ne le sépare.» 7 Ils lui dirent: «pourquoi alors Moïse nous ordonne de donner un certificat de divorce et de la répudier?» 8 Il leur dit: «A cause de la dureté de votre coeur, Moïse vous a permis de divorcer de vos femmes mais au commencement, ce n'était pas comme cela.» 9 Je vous le dis: «Quiconque divorce sa femme excepté en cas d'immoralité sexuelle et épouse une autre, commet l'adultère. Et l'homme qui épouse une femme qui a été divorcée commet l'adultère.» 10 Les disciples dirent à Jésus: «Si telle est la condition de l'homme vis-à-vis de la femme, il n'est pas bon de se marier.» 11 Mais Jésus leur dit: «ce n'est pas tout le monde qui peut accepter cet enseignement, mais seuls ceux à qui il est permis de l'accepter. 12 Car il y a des eunuques qui le sont depuis le ventre de leur mère. Et il y a des eunuques qui le sont par des hommes, et il y a des eunuques qui se sont rendus eux-mêmes eunuques pour la cause du royaume des cieux. Que celui qui est capable de recevoir cet enseignement, le reçoive.» 13 Alors certains petits enfants lui furent amenés afin qu'il puisse leur imposer les mains et prier pour eux, mais les disciples les réprimandèrent. 14 Mais Jésus dit: «permettez aux petits enfants et ne leur interdissez pas de venir à moi, car le royaumme des cieux appartient à ceux qui leur ressemblent.» 15 Il leur imposa les mains, et ensuite, partit de là. 16 Voici un homme vint à Jésus et dit: «Maître, quelle bonne oeuvre dois-je faire pour avoir la vie éternelle?» 17 Jésus lui dit: «pourquoi me demandes-tu ce qui est bon? Un seul est bon, mais si tu veux entrer dans la vie, garde les commandements.» 18 L'homme lui dit: «Quels commandements?» Jésus dit: « Ne tue pas, ne commets pas d'adultère, ne vole pas, ne porte pas de faux témoignages, 19 honore ton père et ta mère, et aime ton prochain comme toi-même.» 20 Le jeune homme lui dit: «J'ai obéi à toutes ces choses. De quoi ai-je encore besoin?» 21 Jésus lui dit: «Si tu souhaites être parfait, alors vends ce que tu as, et donne-le aux pauvres, et tu auras un trésor dans le ciel. Puis, viens et suis-moi.» 22 Mais lorsque le jeune homme entendit ce que Jésus disait, il s'en alla tout triste, car il avait beaucoup de biens. 23 Jésus dit à ses disciples: «en vérité je vous le dis, il est difficile pour un homme riche d'entrer dans le royaume des cieux. 24 Aussi, je vous le dis, il est plus facile pour un chameau de passer par le trou d'une aiguille, que pour un homme riche d'entrer dans le royaume de Dieu.» 25 Lorsque les disciples entendirent cela, ils furent trés étonnés et dirent: «Qui alors peut être sauvé?» 26 Jésus les regarda et dit: «Cela est impossible aux hommes mais avec Dieu toutes choses sont possibles.» 27 Alors Pierre répondit et lui dit: «Regarde, nous avons tout laissé pour te suivre; qu'aurons-nous alors?» 28 Jésus leur dit: «En vérité je vous le dis, vous qui m'avez suivi, dans le siècle avenir, lorsque le Fils de l'Homme sera assis sur son trône gloirieux, vous aussi vous serez assis sur les douze trônes, jugeant les douze tribus d'Israël.» 29 Toute personne qui a laissé ses maisons, ses frères, ses soeurs, son père, sa mère, ses enfants ou son terrain à cause de mon nom, recevra le centuple et héritera de la vie éternelle. 30 Mais beaucoup de ceux qui sont premiers maintenant seront derniers, et beaucoup qui sont derniers seront premiers.

Chapter 20

1 En effet, le royaume des cieux est comme un propriétaire d'une terre qui sortit tôt le matin pour prendre les ouvriers dans sa vigne. 2 Après s'être mis d'accord avec les ouvriers pour un denier par jour, il les envoya dans sa vigne. 3 Il sortit vers la troisième heure et en vit d'autres ouvriers qui étaient sur la place du marché sans rien faire. 4 Il leur dit: «Vous aussi, allez dans la vigne, tout ce qui est bon je vous le donnerais.»Alors ils allèrent travailler. 5 Encore il sortit vers la sixième heure et encore la neuvième heure, et faisait la même chose. 6 Une fois encore aux environs de la onzième heure, il sortit et trouva d'autres ne faisant rien, il leur dit: «Pourquoi êtes-vous restés ici sans occupation toute la journée?» 7 Ils lui répondirent: «Parce que personne ne nous a embauchés.»Il leur dit: «Vous aussi, allez dans la vigne.» 8 Le soir venu, le propriétaire du champ dit à son gérant: «Appelle les ouvriers et donne leur leurs récompenses du dernier au premier.» 9 Quand les travailleurs qui ont été embauchés à la onzième heure arrivèrent, chacun d'eux reçut un denier. 10 Quand les premiers travailleurs arrivèrent, ils pensaient qu'ils allaient recevoir plus mais ils reçurent aussi chacun un denier. 11 Après avoirs reçu leurs récompenses, ils se plaignirent contre le propriétaire. 12 Ils dirent: «Ces derniers ouvriers ont passé juste une heure de travail mais tu nous a donné les mêmes récompenses, nous qui avons souffert depuis le matin sous la chaleur.» 13 Mais le propriétaire répondit à l'un d'eux: «Ami, je ne te fais aucun mal. N'êtiez-vous pas d'avis avec moi pour un denier?» 14 Recevez ce qui vous appartient et partez; je choisis de donner aux derniers ouvriers embauchés la même récompense que vous. 15 N'ai je pas le droit de faire ce que je veux de mes biens? Ou êtes-vous envieux parce que je suis généreux? 16 Alors le dernier sera le premier et le premier sera le dernier. Les meilleurs copies anciennes omettent: «Plusieurs sont appelés, mais peu sont élus.» 17 Comme Jésus était entrain de monter à Jérusalem, il prit les douze disciples avec lui. En chemin, il leur dit: 18 «Regardez, nous montons à Jérusalem et le Fils de l'Homme sera livré aux principaux sacrificateurs et scribes. Ils vont le condamner à mort 19 et le livreront aux païens pour qu'ils se moquent de Lui, le fouettent et le crucifient. Mais le troisième jour, il ressuscitera.» 20 Ensuite la mère des fils de Zébédée vint à Jésus avec ses enfants. Elle s'inclina devant Jésus et lui demanda quelque chose. 21 Jésus lui répondit: «Qu'est- ce que tu souhaites?» Elle lui dit: «Ordonne à ce que mes deux fils soient assis, un à ta droite et l'autre à ta gauche dans ton royaume.» 22 Mais Jésus répondit: «Tu ne sais pas ce que tu es en train de demander. Êtes-vous capables de boire la coupe que je vais boire?» ils lui dirent: «Nous sommes capables.» 23 Il leur dit: «Effectivement, ma coupe, vous allez la boire. Mais pour s'assoir à ma droite et à ma gauche, ce n'est pas à moi de le donner mais c'est pour ceux pour qui cela a été préparé par mon Père.» 24 Quand les dix autres disciples entendirent ceci, ils furent très mécontents contre les deux frères. 25 Mais Jésus les appela à lui et dit: «Tu sais que les chefs des païens dominent sur eux, et leurs hommes importants exercent le pouvoir sur eux. 26 Mais ça ne doit pas être pareil au milieu de vous. Au contraire, Celui qui souhaite être élevé parmi vous doit être votre serviteur. 27 Et quiconque souhaite être premier au milieu de vous doit être votre serviteur, 28 c'est ainsi que le Fils de l'homme n'est pas venu pour être servi, mais pour servir en donnant sa vie en rançon pour plusieurs.» 29 Lorsqu'ils sortirent de Jéricho, une grande foule le suivit. 30 Et deux aveugles étaient assis à côté de la route. Quand ils entendirent que Jésus était en train de passer, ils crièrent en disant: «Seigneur, Fils de David, aie pitié de nous.» 31 La foule les reprenait leur disant de garder silence mais ils criaient encore plus: «Seigneur, Fils de David, aie pitié de nous.» 32 Alors Jésus s'arrêta, les appela et leur demanda: «Que souhaitez-vous que je fasse pour vous?» 33 Ils lui dirent: «Seigneur, que nos yeux s'ouvrent.» 34 Alors, Jésus, rempli de compassion, toucha leurs yeux. Immédiatement, ils retrouvèrent la vue et le suivirent.

Détachez-les et amenez-les moi. 3 Si quelqu'un vous dit quelque chose à propos, vous lui direz: ''Le Seigneur en a besoin, et cette personne vous laissera immédiatement aller avec eux."»» 4 Alors, il arriva que ce qui avait été dit par le prophète pourrait s'accomplir. Il dit: 5 «Dis à la fille de Sion: ‟Voici, ton Roi vient à toi, Humble et monté sur un ânesse et sur un ânon, le petit d'un âne”.» 6 Alors, les disciples allèrent et firent comme Jésus leur avait demandé. 7 Ils apportèrent l'ânesse et l'ânon, ils y mirent leurs manteaux et Jésus s'assit sur les manteaux. 8 La majorité de la foule étalait ses manteaux sur la route et d'autres coupaient des branches d'arbres et les étalaient aussi sur la route. 9 Les foules qui précédaient Jésus et celles qui le suivaient criaient: «Hosanna au fils de David! béni soit celui qui vient au nom du Seigneur! Hosanna au plus haut!» 10 Quand Jésus fut entré à Jérusalem, toute la ville fut émue et dit: « Qui est-ce?» 11 Les foules répondirent: « Celui-ci est Jésus, le prophète de Nazareth en Galilée.» 12 Ensuite, Jésus entra dans le temple. Il chassa tous ceux qui achetaient et vendaient dans le temple et renversa les tables des changeurs de monnaie et les sièges de ceux qui vendaient des colombes. 13 Il leur dit: « Il est écrit: " Ma maison sera appelée maison de prière" mais vous en faites un repère de voleurs.»» 14 Alors, les aveugles et les boiteux vinrent à lui dans le temple et il les guérit. 15 Mais quand les principaux sacrificateurs et les scribes virent les choses merveilleuses qu'il avait faites et lorsqu'ils entendirent les enfants crier dans le temple et dirent: « Hosanna au fils de David» ils étaient très furieux. 16 Ils lui dirent: « Est-ce que tu entends ce que disent ces gens?» Jésus leur dit: « Oui, mais n'avez-vous jamais lu: ‟ De la bouche des enfants et des nourrissons, tu suscites une louange parfaite? ”» 17 Ensuite, Jésus les quitta et sortit de la ville pour Bétanie et y passa la nuit. 18 Alors, le matin, quand il revint dans la ville, il eût faim. 19 Voyant un figuier au bord de la route, il y alla et n'y trouva que des feuilles. Il dit au figuier: « Qu'il n'y ait plus jamais de fruit de toi.» Et aussitôt, le figuier s'est asséché. 20 Lorsque les disciples virent cela, ils s'émerveillèrent et dirent: « Comment le figuier s'est-il instantanément flétri?» 21 Jésus leur répondit: « En vérité, je vous le dis, si vous avez la foi et que vous ne doutez pas, vous ferez non seulement ce qui a été fait à ce figuier, mais vous direz même à cette colline: ‟ ôtes-toi et Jetes-toi dans la mer, ” et cela sera fait. 22 Tout ce que vous demandez dans la prière en croyant, vous recevrez.»» 23 Lorsque Jésus était entré dans le temple, les principaux sacrificateurs et les anciens du peuple vinrent à lui pendant qu'il enseignait et dirent: « Par quelle autorité fais-tu ces choses et qui t'as donné cette autorité?» 24 Jésus leur répondit: « Je vous poserai aussi une question. Si vous me dites, je vous dirai par quelle autorité je fais ces choses. 25 Le baptême de Jean (d'où est-il venu?) du ciel ou des hommes?» Ils discutèrent entre eux en disant: « Si nous disons: ‟ du ciel ”, il nous dira: «Pourquoi donc ne l'avez-vous pas cru?» 26 Mais si nous disons: "des hommes"nous craignons la foule parce que toute la foule considère Jean comme un prophète.» 27 Alors, ils répondirent à Jésus et dirent: « Nous ne savons pas.» Il leur dit aussi: "Je ne vous dirai non plus par quelle autorité je fais ces choses 28 Mais que pensez-vous?"Un homme avait deux fils: «il alla chez le premier» et dit: « Fils, va travailler dans la vigne aujourd'hui. 29 Le fils répondit et dit: ‟ Je ne le ferai pas ” mais après, il changea d'avis et alla."» 30 Et l'homme se rendit chez le deuxième fils et dit la même chose. Ce fils répondit et dit: ‟ J'irai monsieur ” mais il n'était pas parti. 31 Lequel des deux fils a fait la volonté de son père?» Ils dirent: ‟ Le premier. ” Jésus leur dit: « En vérité, je vous le dis, les collecteurs d'impôts et les prostituées entreront dans le royaume de Dieu avant vous. 32 Car, Jean est venu vers vous dans le chemin de la justice, mais vous ne l'avez pas cru, tandis que les collecteurs d'impôts et les prostituées l'ont cru. Et vous, quand vous avez vu cela arriver, vous ne vous êtes même pas repentis plus tard pour le croire.» 33 Ecoutez une autre parabole:"Il y avait un homme, un propriétaire de terrain. Il planta une vigne, y construisit une barrière tout autour, y creusa un pressoir, y construisit une tour de garde et la donna en location aux vignerons. Puis, il s'en alla dans un autre pays. 34 Quand le temps de la récolte des fruits approcha, il envoya quelques serviteurs chez les vignerons pour prendre ses fruits. 35 Mais les vignerons se saisirent de ses serviteurs, frappèrent l'un, tuèrent un autre et lapidèrent encore un autre. 36 Le propriétaire envoya encore d'autres serviteurs plus nombreux que les premiers, mais les vignerons les traitèrent de la même manière. 37 Après cela, le propriétaire les envoya son propre fils en disant: ‟ Ils respecteront mon fils. ” 38 Mais Lorsque les vignerons virent le fils, ils se dirent entre eux: ‟ Voici l'héritier: venez, tuons-le et prenons l'héritage. ” 39 Alors ils l'emmenèrent, le jetèrent hors de la vigne, et le tuèrent. 40 Maintenant, quand le propriétaire de la vigne viendra, que fera-t-il à ces vignerons?"» 41 Ils lui dirent:"Il détruira ces misérables de la manière la plus sévère et fera ensuite louer la vigne à d'autres vignerons, des hommes qui lui donnerons sa part de fruits au temps de la récolte." 42 Jésus leur dit: «N'avez-vous jamais lu dans les Écritures: ‟ La pierre que les bâtisseurs ont rejetée a été faite la pierre angulaire. Ceci venait du Seigneur et est merveilleux à nos yeux ”? 43 C'est pourquoi je vous dis, le royaume de Dieu vous sera enlevé et sera donné à une nation qui produit ses fruits. 44 Quiconque tombe sur cette pierre sera brisé en morceaux. Mais, celui sur qui elle tombe, sera écrasé."» 45 Lorsque les principaux sacrificateurs et les pharisiens entendirent ses paraboles, ils comprirent qu'il parlait d'eux. 46 Voulant l'arrêter, ils avaient peur de la foule parce que les gens le voyaient comme un prophète.

Chapter 22

1 Jésus leur parla encore en paraboles disant: 2 «Le royaume des cieux est semblable à un certain roi qui préparait une fête de mariage pour son fils. 3 Il envoya ses serviteurs appeler ceux qui étaient invités au mariage, mais ils ne voulurent pas venir. 4 Le roi envoya encore d'autres serviteurs en disant: "Dites à ceux qui sont invités: «Voyez, j'ai préparé mon dîner; mes boeufs et mes veaux gras ont été tués et toutes choses sont prêtes. Venez à la fête du mariage.»" 5 Mais ces gens ne les prirent pas au sérieux. Ils s'en allèrent l'un dans son champ, l'autre à ses affaires. 6 Le reste se saisit des serviteurs du roi, les maltraita et les tua. 7 Le roi se mit en colère; il envoya son armée tuer ces meurtriers et brûler leur ville. 8 Ensuite il dit à ses serviteurs: ''Les noces sont prêtes, mais ceux qui étaient invités n'en étaient pas dignes. 9 Ainsi, allez dans les carrefours et invitez autant de personnes que vous trouverez à la fête du mariage." 10 Les serviteurs allèrent dans les rues et rassemblèrent toutes les personnes qu'ils trouvèrent, mauvaises et bonnes. Ainsi, la salle de mariage fut remplie d'invités. 11 Mais quand le roi entra pour voir les invités, il vit là un homme qui n'avait pas porté les vêtements de fête. 12 Le roi lui demanda: "Ami, comment es-tu entré ici sans vêtements de fête?" Et l'homme resta sans parole. 13 Alors, le roi dit aux serviteurs: "Attachez les mains et les pieds de cet homme et jetez-le dehors dans les ténèbres, là où il y aura des pleurs et des grincements de dents." 14 Car beaucoup sont appelés, mais peu sont choisis.» 15 Puis, les pharisiens allèrent planifier comment ils piègeraient Jésus par ses propres paroles. 16 Ils lui envoyèrent leurs disciples, ensemble avec les hérodiens. ils dirent à Jésus: «Maître, nous savons que tu dis la vérité et que tu enseignes la voie de Dieu en vérité. Tu ne prends en compte l'opinion de personne et tu ne fais pas de favoritisme entre les gens. 17 Alors dis-nous, que penses-tu?: est-il légal de payer les impôts à César ou non?» 18 Mais Jésus comprit leur méchanceté et dit: «Hypocrites! Pourquoi me tentez-vous? 19 Montrez-moi une pièce d'impôt.» Ils lui présentèrent un denier. 20 Jésus leur dit: «De qui sont cette image et ce nom?» 21 Ils lui dirent: «De César». Alors, Jésus leur dit: «Donnez donc à César les choses qui sont à César et à Dieu les choses qui sont à Dieu.» 22 Quand ils entendirent cela, ils furent étonnés. Puis Ils le laissèrent et s'en allèrent. 23 Ce jour là, quelques sadducéens qui disent qu'il n'y a pas de résurrection vinrent à lui. Ils lui demandèrent: 24 «Maître, Moïse a dit: "si un homme meurt sans enfant, son frère doit épouser sa femme pour lui faire des enfants." 25 Il y avait sept frères. Le premier se maria et mourut sans avoir d'enfant. Il laissa sa femme à son frère. 26 Ensuite le second frère fit la même chose; puis le troisième, jusqu'au septième frère. 27 Après eux, la femme aussi mourut. 28 Maintenant dis-nous, à la résurrection, de qui sera-t-elle la femme parmi les sept frères; puisqu'ils l'ont tous épousée?» 29 Mais Jésus répondit et leur dit: «Vous êtes dans l'erreur, parce que vous ne comprenez ni les écritures, ni la puissance de Dieu. 30 Car à la résurrection, on ne se mariera pas et on ne sera pas envoyé en mariage. Plutôt, on est comme les anges dans le ciel. 31 Mais pour ce qui concerne la résurrection des morts, n'avez-vous pas lu ce que Dieu vous a dit: 32 "Je suis le Dieu d'Abraham, le Dieu d'Isaac, et le Dieu de Jacob?" Dieu n'est pas le Dieu des morts, mais des vivants.» 33 Lorsque la foule entendit ceci, elle fut étonnée de ses enseignements. 34 Lorsque les pharisiens apprirent que Jésus avait réduit les sadducéens au silence, ils se rassemblèrent. 35 L' un d'eux, un docteur de la loi, lui posa une question pour l'éprouver: 36 «Maître, quel est le plus grand commandement dans la loi?» 37 Jésus lui répondit: «"Aime le Seigneur ton Dieu de tout ton coeur, de toute ton âme et de toute ta pensée." 38 Ceci est le grand et le premier commandement. 39 Et le second commandement lui est semblable: "Aime ton prochain comme toi-même." 40 De ces deux commandements dépendent toute la loi et les prophètes.» 41 Comme les pharisiens étaient encore assemblés, Jésus les interrongea. 42 Il dit: «Que pensez-vous du Christ? De qui est-il fils?» Ils lui répondirent: «Le fils de David.» 43 Jésus leur dit: «Comment donc David, animé par l'Esprit, l'appelle-t-il Seigneur, lorsqu'il dit: 44 "Le Seigneur a dit à mon Seigneur": "Assieds-toi à ma droite, jusqu'à ce que je fasse de tes ennemis ton marchepied."?» 45 Si donc David appelle le Christ, "Seigneur", comment est-il fils de David?» 46 Personne n'était capable de lui dire un mot. Et, depuis ce jour, personne n'osa plus lui poser des questions.

Je t'envoie des prophètes et des sages et des scribes

Parfois, le présent est utilisé pour montrer que quelqu'un fera quelque chose très bientôt. AT: “Je vais envoie des prophètes, des sages et des scribes »

Chapter 23

1 Puis, Jésus s'adressa à la foule et à ses disciples. 2 Il dit: «Les scribes et les pharisiens s'asseyent dans le fauteil de Moïse. 3 Ainsi, quoi qu'ils vous recommandent de faire, faites ces choses et mettez-les en pratique. Mais n'imitez pas leurs actes. Car ils disent des choses, mais ne les mettent pas en pratique. 4 Oui, ils attachent des charges lourdes qui sont difficiles à porter, et ils les posent sur les épaules des gens. Mais eux-mêmes ne bougeront pas un seul doigt pour les porter. 5 Ils font toutes leurs actions pour être vus par les gens. Car ils fabriquent de larges phylactères qu'ils mettent sur eux, et ils agrandissent les bordures de leurs vêtements. 6 Ils aiment les places principales dans les fêtes, et les sièges principaux dans les synagogues, 7 et des salutations spéciales dans les lieux publics, et d'être appelés "Rabbi" par les gens. 8 Mais vous ne devez pas vous faire appeler «Rabbi», car vous avez un seul maître, et tous, vous êtes des frères. 9 Et n'appelez personne sur la terre votre père, car vous avez un seul père, et il est aux cieux. 10 Ne vous appelez pas non plus «maîtres», car vous avez un seul maître, le Christ. 11 Mais celui qui est le plus grand parmi vous sera votre serviteur. 12 Quiconque s'élève sera rabaissé, et quiconque se rabaisse sera élevé. 13 Mais malheur à vous, scribes et pharisiens, hypocrites! Vous fermez le royaume des cieux aux gens. Car vous n'y entrez pas vous-mêmes, et ne permettez pas non plus à ceux qui sont sur le point d'y entrer de le faire. 14 [Les anciennes meilleures copies omettent le verset 14, (d'autres copies ajoutent ce verset après le verset 12). «Malheur à vous scribes et pharisiens, hypocrites! car vous exploitez les veuves.»] 15 Malheur à vous, scribes et pharisiens, hypocrites! Car vous allez sur la mer et sur la terre pour convertir quelqu'un. Et quand il est converti, vous faites de lui un double fils de l'enfer, comme vous-mêmes l'êtes. 16 Malheur à vous, guides aveugles, vous qui dites: «Quiconque jure par le temple n'a rien fait. Mais quiconque jure par l'or du temple est lié à son serment.» 17 Vous, insensés aveugles! Qu'est-ce qui est plus grand, l'or, ou le temple qui a sanctifié l'or? 18 Et, «Quiconque jure par l'autel n'a rien fait. Mais quiconque jure par l'offrande qui est sur l'autel est lié à son serment.» 19 Vous qui êtes aveugles, qu'est-ce qui est plus grand, l'offrande ou l'autel qui sanctifie l'offrande? 20 Ainsi, celui qui jure par l'autel jure par l'autel avec tout ce qui s'y trouve. 21 Et celui qui jure par le temple jure par le temple et par celui qui habite le temple. 22 Et celui qui jure par le ciel jure par le trône de Dieu et par celui qui est assis sur ce trône. 23 Malheur à vous, scribes et pharisiens, hypocrites! Car vous donnez la dîme de la menthe, de l'aneth et du cumin, mais vous négligez les aspects les plus importants de la loi (la justice, la miséricorde et la foi). Pourtant, ce sont ces choses que vous auriez dû faire, sans négliger l'autre. 24 Vous, guides aveugles, vous qui filtrez un moucheron mais avalez un chameau. 25 Malheur à vous, scribes et pharisiens, hypocrites! Car vous nettoyez l'extérieur de la coupe et du plat, mais à l'intérieur, ils sont pleins d'extorsion et d'excès. 26 Pharisien aveugle, nettoie premièremenent l'intérieur de la coupe et du plat, afin que l'extérieur devienne aussi propre. 27 Malheur à vous, scribes et pharisiens, hypocrites! Car vous êtes comme des tombeaux blanchis, qui paraissent beaux au regard extérieur, mais qui à l'intérieur sont pleins d'ossements de morts et toutes choses impures. 28 De la même manière, vous aussi paraissez justes aux gens de l'extérieur, mais à l'intérieur vous êtes pleins d'hypocrisie et d'iniquité. 29 Malheur à vous, scribes et pharisiens, hypocrites! Car vous construisez les tombeaux des prophètes et décorez les tombeaux des justes. 30 Vous dites: «Si nous avions vécu aux jours de nos pères, nous n'aurions pas répandu le sang des prophètes avec eux.» 31 Ainsi, vous témoignez contre vous-mêmes que vous êtes les fils de ceux qui ont tué les prophètes. 32 Ainsi, vous remplissez donc la mesure de vos pères. 33 Serpents que vous êtes, race de vipères, comment pourrez-vous fuir le jugement de l'enfer? 34 C'est pourquoi, voici, je vous envoie des prophètes, des sages et des scribes. Vous tuerez et crucifierez certains. Et vous fouetterez d'autres dans vos synagogues, et les poursuivrez d'une ville à une autre. 35 La conséquence est que sur vous retombera tout le sang innocent versé sur la terre, depuis le sang d'Abel le juste, jusqu'au sang de Zacharie, fils de Barachie, que vous avez tué entre le sanctuaire et l'autel. 36 En vérité, je vous le dis, toutes ces choses arriveront à cette génération. 37 Jérusalem, Jérusalem, toi qui tues les prophètes et qui lapides ceux qui te sont envoyés! Combien de fois ai-je souhaité rassembler tes enfants, tout comme une poule rassemble ses poussins sous ses ailes, mais vous n'avez pas approuvé cela. 38 Regardez, votre maison est désertée. 39 Car je vous le dis, vous ne me verrez plus désormais, jusqu'à ce que vous disiez: «Béni soit celui qui vient au nom du Seigneur.»

1 Comme|strong="G2532" Jésus|strong="G2424" s'en allait|strong="G1831" x-morph="strongMorph:TG5631" au sortir|strong="G4198" x-morph="strongMorph:TG5711" du|strong="G575" temple|strong="G2411" |strong="G2532" ses|strong="G846" disciples|strong="G3101" s' approchèrent|strong="G4334" x-morph="strongMorph:TG5656" pour lui|strong="G846" en|strong="G2411" faire remarquer|strong="G1925" x-morph="strongMorph:TG5658" les constructions|strong="G3619" 2 Mais|strong="G1161" il leur|strong="G846" dit|strong="G2036" x-morph="strongMorph:TG5627" Voyez|strong="G991" x-morph="strongMorph:TG5719" |x-morph="strongMorph:TG5720" vous|strong="G3756" tout|strong="G3956" cela|strong="G5023" Je vous|strong="G5213" le dis|strong="G3004" x-morph="strongMorph:TG5719" en

ne|strong="G3364" soit renversée|strong="G2647" x-morph="strongMorph:TG5701" 3 Il|strong="G1161" s' assit|strong="G2521" x-morph="strongMorph:TG5740" sur|strong="G1909" la montagne|strong="G3735" des oliviers|strong="G1636" Et les disciples|strong="G3101" vinrent|strong="G4334" x-morph="strongMorph:TG5656" en particulier|strong="G2596" |strong="G2398" lui|strong="G846" faire cette

x-morph="strongMorph:TG5704" et|strong="G2532" quel|strong="G5101" sera le signe|strong="G4592" de ton|strong="G4674" avènement|strong="G3952" et|strong="G2532" de la fin|strong="G4930" du monde|strong="G165" 4 |strong="G2532" Jésus|strong="G2424" leur|strong="G846" répondit|strong="G611" x-morph="strongMorph:TG5679" |strong="G2036" x-morph="strongMorph:TG5627" Prenez

plusieurs|strong="G4183" viendront|strong="G2064" x-morph="strongMorph:TG5695" sous|strong="G1909" mon|strong="G3450" nom|strong="G3686" disant|strong="G3004" x-morph="strongMorph:TG5723" C'est moi|strong="G1473" qui suis|strong="G1510" x-morph="strongMorph:TG5748" le Christ|strong="G5547" Et|strong="G2532" ils séduiront|strong="G4105" x-morph="strongMorph:TG5692" beaucoup de gens|strong="G4183" 6 Vous|strong="G1161" entendrez|strong="G3195" x-morph="strongMorph:TG5692" parler|strong="G191" x-morph="strongMorph:TG5721" de guerres|strong="G4171" et|strong="G2532" de bruits|strong="G189" de guerres|strong="G4171" gardez- vous|strong="G3708" x-morph="strongMorph:TG5720" |strong="G3361" d'être troublés|strong="G2360" x-morph="strongMorph:TG5744" car|strong="G1063" il faut|strong="G1163" x-morph="strongMorph:TG5748" que ces choses|strong="G3956" arrivent|strong="G1096" x-morph="strongMorph:TG5635" Mais|strong="G235" ce ne sera|strong="G2076" x-morph="strongMorph:TG5748" pas encore|strong="G3768" la fin|strong="G5056" 7 Une|strong="G1063" nation|strong="G1484" s' élèvera|strong="G1453" x-morph="strongMorph:TG5701" contre|strong="G1909" une nation|strong="G1484" et|strong="G2532" un royaume|strong="G932" contre|strong="G1909" un royaume|strong="G932" et|strong="G2532" il y aura|strong="G2071" x-morph="strongMorph:TG5704" en divers|strong="G2596" lieux|strong="G5117" des famines|strong="G3042" et|strong="G2532" des tremblements de terre|strong="G4578" 8 Tout|strong="G1161" |strong="G3956" cela|strong="G5023" ne sera que le commencement|strong="G746" des douleurs|strong="G5604" 9 Alors|strong="G5119" on vous|strong="G5209" livrera|strong="G3860" x-morph="strongMorph:TG5692" aux|strong="G1519" tourments|strong="G2347" et|strong="G2532" l'on vous|strong="G5209" fera mourir|strong="G615" x-morph="strongMorph:TG5692" et|strong="G2532" vous serez|strong="G2071" x-morph="strongMorph:TG5704" haïs|strong="G3404" x-morph="strongMorph:TG5746" de|strong="G5259" toutes|strong="G3956" les nations|strong="G1484" à cause de|strong="G1223" mon|strong="G3450" nom|strong="G3686" 10 Alors|strong="G5119" aussi|strong="G2532" plusieurs|strong="G4183" succomberont|strong="G4624" x-morph="strongMorph:TG5701" et|strong="G2532" ils se|strong="G240" trahiront|strong="G3860" x-morph="strongMorph:TG5692" |strong="G2532" se haïront|strong="G3404" x-morph="strongMorph:TG5692" les uns les autres|strong="G240" 11 |strong="G2532" Plusieurs|strong="G4183" faux prophètes|strong="G5578" s' élèveront|strong="G1453" x-morph="strongMorph:TG5701" et|strong="G2532" ils séduiront|strong="G4105" x-morph="strongMorph:TG5692" beaucoup de gens|strong="G4183" 12 Et|strong="G2532" parce que|strong="G1223" l' iniquité|strong="G458" se sera accrue|strong="G4129" x-morph="strongMorph:TG5683" la charité|strong="G26" du plus grand nombre|strong="G4183" se refroidira|strong="G5594" x-morph="strongMorph:TG5691" 13 Mais|strong="G1161" celui|strong="G3778" qui persévérera|strong="G5278" x-morph="strongMorph:TG5660" jusqu' à|strong="G1519" la fin|strong="G5056" sera sauvé|strong="G4982" x-morph="strongMorph:TG5701" 14 |strong="G2532" Cette|strong="G5124" bonne nouvelle|strong="G2098" du royaume|strong="G932" sera prêchée|strong="G2784" x-morph="strongMorph:TG5701" dans|strong="G1722" le monde|strong="G3625" entier|strong="G3650" pour|strong="G1519" servir de témoignage|strong="G3142" à toutes|strong="G3956" les nations|strong="G1484" |strong="G2532" Alors|strong="G5119" viendra|strong="G2240" x-morph="strongMorph:TG5692" la fin|strong="G5056" 15 C'est pourquoi|strong="G3752" |strong="G3767" lorsque vous verrez|strong="G1492" x-morph="strongMorph:TG5632" l' abomination|strong="G946" de la désolation|strong="G2050" dont a parlé|strong="G4483" x-morph="strongMorph:TG5685" le prophète|strong="G4396" Daniel|strong="G1158" |strong="G1223" établie|strong="G2476" x-morph="strongMorph:TG5756" |x-morph="strongMorph:TG5625" |strong="G2476" x-morph="strongMorph:TG5761" en|strong="G1722"

sa|strong="G846" maison|strong="G3614" 18 et|strong="G2532" que celui qui sera dans|strong="G1722" les champs|strong="G68" ne retourne|strong="G1994" x-morph="strongMorph:TG5657" pas|strong="G3361" en

x-morph="strongMorph:TG5723" enceintes|strong="G1722" |strong="G1064" et|strong="G2532" à celles qui allaiteront|strong="G2337" x-morph="strongMorph:TG5723" en|strong="G1722" ces|strong="G1565" jours|strong="G2250" 20 |strong="G1161" Priez|strong="G4336" x-morph="strongMorph:TG5737" pour que votre|strong="G5216" fuite|strong="G5437" n' arrive|strong="G1096" x-morph="strongMorph:TG5638" pas|strong="G3363" en hiver|strong="G5494" ni|strong="G3366" |strong="G1722" un jour de sabbat|strong="G4521" 21 Car|strong="G1063" alors|strong="G5119" la détresse|strong="G2347" sera|strong="G2071" x-morph="strongMorph:TG5704" si grande|strong="G3173" qu'il n'y en a|strong="G1096" x-morph="strongMorph:TG5754" point|strong="G3756" eu de pareille|strong="G3634" depuis|strong="G575" le

Alors|strong="G5119" le signe|strong="G4592" du Fils|strong="G5207" de l' homme|strong="G444" paraîtra|strong="G5316" x-morph="strongMorph:TG5691" dans|strong="G1722" le ciel|strong="G3772" |strong="G2532" |strong="G5119" toutes|strong="G3956" les tribus|strong="G5443" de la terre|strong="G1093" se lamenteront|strong="G2875" x-morph="strongMorph:TG5695" et|strong="G2532" elles

Qu'est-ce qu'un mauvais serviteur fait pendant l'absence de son maître? Qu'est-ce que le maître, lors de son retour, fait au serviteur qui est mauvais?

Un mauvais serviteurs bat les autres serviteurs, mange et boit avec des ivrognes pendant l'absence de son maître[24: Quand il revient, le maître met en pièces le mauvais serviteur et l'envoie là où il y a des pleurs et des grincements de dents.


Chapter 24

1 Jésus sortit du temple et s'en alla. Ses disciples s'approchèrent de lui afin d'attirer son attention sur les constructions du temple. 2 Mais il leur répondit: « Ne voyez vous pas toutes ces choses? En vérité je vous le dis, aucune pierre ne restera sur une autre qui ne soit renversée.» 3 Étant assis sur la montagne des Oliviers, les disciples vinrent à lui en privé et lui demandèrent: «Dis-nous quand ces choses arriveront. Quels seront les signes de ton retour et les évènements indiquant la fin du monde?» 4 Jésus leur répondit: «Prenez garde, et que personne ne vous trompe. 5 Car plusieurs viendront en mon nom endisant: “Je suis le Christ, ” et beaucoup de gens seront égarés. 6 Vous entendrez parler des guerres et les nouvelles de guerres; ne soyez pas troublés, car ces choses doivent arriver; mais ce n'est pas encore la fin. 7 Car une nation se lèvera contre une autre nation, et un royaume contre un autre royaume. Il y aura des famines et des temblements de terre à plusieurs endroits. 8 Mais tout cela ne sera que les débuts des douleurs de l'enfantement. 9 Puis on vous livrera à des tribulations et on vous tuera. Toutes les nations vous haïront à cause de mon nom. 10 Plusieurs trébucheront. Ils se trahiront et se haïront les uns les autres. 11 Plusieurs faux prophètes se lèveront et séduiront beaucoup de gens. 12 Et parce que l'iniquité prendra de l'ampleur, l'amour de plusieurs se refroidira. 13 Mais celui qui tiendra ferme jusqu'à la fin sera sauvé. 14 Et cette bonne nouvelle du royaume sera prêchée dans le monde entier, en témoignage à toutes les nations. Puis viendra la fin. 15 C'est pourquoi, lorsque vous verrez l'abomination de la désolation dont a fait mention le prophète Daniel se tenant dans le lieu saint (que celui qui lit comprenne), 16 que ceux qui se sont en Judée fuient dans les montagnes, 17 que celui qui est sur le toit ne descende pas dans sa maison pour prendre quoi que ce soit, 18 et que celui qui est dans les champs ne retourne pas chez lui pour prendre son manteau. 19 Malheur aux femmes enceintes et à celles qui allaiteront en ces jours-là! 20 Priez pour que votre fuite n'arrive pas en hiver, ni un jour de sabbat. 21 Car la tribulation sera si grande qu'il n'y en a point eu de pareil depuis le commencement du monde jusqu'à présent, et qu'il n'y en aura jamais. 22 Si ces jours n'étaient pas abrégés, aucune chair ne serait sauvé; mais à cause des élus, ces jours seront abrégés. 23 Alors si quelqu'un vous dit: «voyez, le Christ est ici, ou le Christ est là-bas, ne le croyez pas. 24 Car les faux Christs et les faux prophètes viendront et feront des grands signes et prodiges, afin de dérouter si possible, même les élus. 25 Voyez, je vous l'ai dit à l'avance.» 26 Si l'on vous dit: «Regardez, le Christ est dans le désert, n'y allez pas; ou bien Il est dans une chambre spéciale, ne croyez pas. 27 Car comme l'éclair qui brille de l' Est et resplendit jusqu' à l'Ouest, ainsi sera la venue du Fils de l'Homme. 28 Là où il y a des dépouilles d'animaux, là seront aussi les voutours. 29 Juste après ces jours de tribulation, le soleil deviendra sombre, la lune perdra son éclat, les étoiles tomberont du ciel, et les puissances des cieux seront ébranlées. 30 Alors apparaîtra le signe du Fils de l'Homme dans le ciel, et toutes les tribus de la terre se lamenteront. Ils verront le Fils de L' Homme venir dans les nuées du ciel avec puissance et une grande gloire. 31 Au son d'une grande trompête, Il enverra ses anges pour rassembler ses élus des quatre vents, d'une extrémité du ciel jusqu'à une autre. 32 Tirez une leçon du figuier. Dès que les branches deviennent tendres et poussent des feuilles, vous saurez que l'été est proche. 33 De même, lorsque vous verrez toutes ces choses, vous devrez savoir qu'il est proche, à la porte. 34 En vérité je vous le dis, cette génération ne passera pas jusqu'à ce que toutes ces choses n'arrivent. 35 Le ciel et la terre passeront, mais mes paroles ne passeront jamais. 36 Mais concernant ce jour et cette heure, personne ne sait, ni les anges dans les cieux, ni le Fils, mais le Père seul. 37 Comme pendant les jours de Noé, ainsi sera la venue du Fils de l'Homme. 38 Car, comme en ces jours-là avant le déluge les gens mangeaient et buvaient, se mariaient et donnaient leurs filles et leurs fils en mariage jusqu'au jour où Noé entra dans l'arche. 39 Ils n'étaient au courant de rien jusqu'à ce que le déluge arriva et les emporta. Ainsi sera la venue du Fils de l'Homme. 40 Alors deux hommes seront dans un champ; l'un sera pris, et l'autre sera abandonné. 41 Deux femmes seront entrain de moudre avec une meule, l'une sera prise et l'autre abandonnée. 42 Soyez sur vos gardes, car vous ne connaissez pas le jour où votre Seigneur apparaîtra. 43 Mais sachez que si le maître de la maison avait su à quelle heure le voleur viendrait, il serait sur ses gardes et ne le laisserait pas que son domicile soit violée. 44 C'est pourquoi vous devez être aussi prêts, car le Fils de l'Homme viendra à une heure inattendue. 45 Quel est donc ce serviteur fidèle et sage, que son maître a établi sur sa maison, pour leur donner à manger au moment opportun? 46 Béni sera ce serviteur lorsque le maître le trouvera en train de faire ceci quand il viendra. 47 En vérité je vous dis que le maître l' établira sur tout ce qu'il possède. 48 Mais si un mauvais serviteur se dit en lui-même: «Mon maître ne vient pas maintenant», 49 et se met à battre les autres serviteurs, à manger et à boire avec des ivrognes; 50 le maître de ce serviteur viendra un jour où le serviteur ne s'y attend, et à une heure qu'il ignore. 51 Son maître le mettra en pièces et rendra son sort pareil à celui des hypocrites, où il y aura des pleurs et des grincements de dents.

Chapter 25

1 Alors le Royaume des cieux sera semblable à dix vierges qui prirent leurs lampes et allèrent à la recontre de l'époux. 2 Cinq d'entre elles étaient folles et cinq étaient sages. 3 Car lorsque les folles vierges prirent leurs lampes, elles n'ont pas pris l'huile avec elles. 4 Mais les sages prirent des vases d'huile avec leurs lampes. 5 Et comme l'époux tardait, toutes s'assoupirent et s'endormirent. 6 Mais à minuit, il y'eut un cri: « Voici! l'époux arrive! Allez à sa rencontre!» 7 Alors toutes les vierges se reveillèrent et préparèrent leurs lampes. 8 Les folles dirent aux sages: «Donnez-nous de votre huile parce que nos lampes s'éteignent!» 9 Mais les sages répondirent: «Comme il n'y aura pas assez pour nous et pour vous, allez plutôt chez ceux qui en vendent et achetez-en pour vous-mêmes.» 10 Pendant qu'elles partirent en acheter, l'époux arriva, et celles qui étaient prêtes partirent avec lui aux noces, et la porte fut fermée. 11 Plus tard, les autres vierges arrivèrent aussi et dirent: «Maître, maître, ouvre-nous la porte.» 12 Mais il répondit: «En vérité je vous le dis, je ne vous connais pas.» 13 Veillez donc, car vous ne savez le jour ni l'heure. 14 Car il en sera comme quand un homme était sur le point de se rendre dans un autre pays. Il appela ses propres serviteurs et leur confia ses richesses. 15 À l'un d'eux il confia cinq talents, à un autre deux et à un autre il confia un talent. Chacun reçut un montant selon sa capacité et cet homme s'en alla pour son voyage. 16 Aussitôt, celui qui reçut cinq talents les investit et gagna cinq autres talents. 17 De même celui qui a reçu deux talents en produisit deux autres. 18 Mais le serviteur qui avait reçu un talent partit, creusa un trou dans la terre, et enfuit l'argent de son maître. 19 Longtemps après, le maître de ces serviteurs revint et leur fit rendre compte. 20 Le serviteur qui avait reçu cinq talents vint et apporta avec lui cinq autres talents et dit: «Maître, tu m'as confié cinq talents. Regarde, voici cinq talents en plus.» 21 Son Maître lui dit: «C'est bien, bon et fidèle serviteur! Tu as été fidèle en peu de choses; je te chargerai de beaucoup de choses. Entre dans la joie de ton maître.» 22 Le serviteur qui avait reçu deux talents vint et dit: «Maître, tu m'as confié deux talents. Regarde, j'ai gagné deux talents de plus.» 23 Son maître lui dit: «C'est bien, bon et fidèle serviteur! Tu as été fidèle en peu de choses, je te chargerai de beaucoup de choses. Entre dans la joie de ton maître.» 24 Enfin, le serviteur qui avait reçu un talent vint et dit: «Maître, je sais que tu es un homme strict. Tu moissonnes là où tu n'a pas semé, et tu amasses là où n'as pas vanné. 25 J'avais peur, alors je suis allé, et j'ai caché ton talent dans la terre. Regarde, tu as ici ce qui t'appartient.» 26 Mais son maître lui répondit: «Méchant et paresseux serviteur, tu savais que je moissone là où je n'ai pas semé. 27 Tu aurais donc pu placer mon argent dans une banque et à mon retour, j'aurais reçu mon argent avec intérêt.» 28 Retirez-lui donc le talent et donnez-le au serviteur qui a dix talents. 29 Car, à celui qui a, il sera donné plus (même plus abondamment.) Mais, à celui qui n'a pas, même ce qu'il a lui sera retiré. 30 Jetez le serviteur inutile dans les ténèbres du dehors, où il y'aura des pleurs et des grincements de dents.» 31 Lorsque le Fils de l'Homme viendra dans sa gloire et tous les anges avec lui, alors, il s'assiéra sur son trône glorieux. 32 Toutes les nations s'assembleront devant lui et il séparera les gens les uns d'avec les autres, comme un berger sépare les brebis des boucs. 33 Il placera les brebis à sa droite, et les boucs à sa gauche. 34 Alors le Roi dira à ceux qui sont à sa main droite: «Venez vous qui avez été bénis par mon Père, héritez le royaume préparé pour vous dès la fondation du monde. 35 Car j'ai eu faim et vous m'avez donné à mangé; j'ai eu soif et vous m'avez donné à boire; j'étais étranger et vous m'avez accueilli; 36 j'étais nu et vous m'avez vêtu; j'étais malade et vous m'avez soigné; j'étais en prison et vous êtes venus à moi.» 37 Alors les justes répondront: «Seigneur, quand t'avons nous vu avoir faim et t'avons-nous donné à manger? Ou soif et t'avons-nous donné à boire? 38 Et quand t'avons-nous vu étranger, et t'avons nous accueilli? Ou nu et t'avons-nous vêtu? 39 Et quand t'avons-nous vu malade, ou en prison et sommes allés à toi? 40 Et le Roi répondra «En vérité je vous le dis, tout ce que vous avez fait pour l'un de ces plus petits de mes frères, c'est à moi que vous l'avez fait.» 41 Puis il dira à ceux de sa main gauche: «Retirez-vous de moi, maudits; allez dans le feu éternel qui a été préparé pour le diable et ses anges, 42 car j'ai eu faim mais vous ne m'avez pas donné à manger; j'ai eu soif mais vous ne m'avez pas donné à boire; 43 j'étais étranger mais vous ne m'avez pas accueilli; j'étais nu mais vous ne m'avez pas vêtu; j'étais malade et en prison mais vous n'avez pas pris soin de moi.» 44 Alors Ils répondront aussi et diront: «Seigneur, quand t'avons-nous vu ayant faim, ou soif, ou étranger, ou nu, ou malade, ou en prison, et ne t'avons-nous pas servi? 45 Alors, Il leur répondra: «En vétité je vous le dis, ce que vous n'avez pas fait pour l'un de ces plus petits, vous ne l'avez pas fait à moi.» 46 Ceux-ci iront alors au châtiment éternel et les justes à la vie éternelle.»

Jésus utilise une question pour expliquer pourquoi il laisse ces personnes l’arrêter. Cela peut être indiqué dans forme active. AT: «Mais si je faisais cela, je ne serais pas capable de réaliser ce que Dieu a dit dans les Écritures. arrive »(Voir: question rhétorique et active ou passive )

Matthew 26:55

Es-tu sorti avec des épées et des clubs pour me saisir comme un voleur?

Jésus utilise cette question pour signaler les mauvaises actions de ceux qui l’arrêtent. AT: «Vous savez que je ne suis pas un voleur, il est donc faux que tu viennes à moi avec des épées et des clubs »(voir: Question rhétorique )

Chapter 26

1 Il arriva que lorsque Jésus eut fini tous ces discours, il dit à ses disciples: 2 «Vous savez que la Pâques sera dans deux jours, et le fils de l'homme sera livré pour être crucifié.» 3 Alors les principaux sacrificateurs et les anciens du peuple se réunirent dans la cour de Caïphe, le souverain sacrificateur. 4 Ils complotèrent d'arrêter secrètement Jésus et de le tuer. 5 Car ils disaient: «Que ce ne soit pas pendant la fête, pour éviter de soulever une émeute parmi le peuple.» 6 Jésus était à Béthanie dans la maison de Simon le lépreux, 7 comme il était à table, une femme vint à lui avec un vase d'albâtre renfermant un parfum d'une très grande valeur; et elle le répandit sur sa tête. 8 Mais, lorsque les disciples virent cela, ils se mirent en colère et dirent: «A quoi bon cette perte? 9 Ce parfum aurait pu être vendu à un grand prix et donné aux pauvres.» 10 Mais Jésus, le connaissant, leur dit: «Pourquoi faites-vous de la peine à cette femme? Elle a fait une bonne chose pour moi. 11 Vous aurez toujours les pauvres avec vous, mais vous ne m'aurez pas toujours. 12 Lorsqu' elle a répandu ce parfum sur mon corps, elle l'a fait pour mon enterrement. 13 En vérité je vous le dis, partout dans le monde où cette bonne nouvelle sera annoncée, on parlera de ce que cette femme a fait en souvenir d'elle.» 14 L'un des douze, du nom de Judas Iscariot, alla chez les principaux sacrificateurs 15 et dit: «Que me donnerez vous pour que je vous le livre?» Ils pesèrent trente pièces d'argent pour lui. 16 Dès ce moment, il cherchait une opportunité pour le leur livrer. 17 Le premier jour des pains sans levain, les disciples abordèrent Jésus en disant: «Où veux-tu que nous te préparions le repas de la Pâque?» 18 Il répondit: «Allez à la ville chez un certain homme et dites lui: ''Le maître dit: «Mon heure est proche. Je veux avoir le repas de Pâque chez toi avec mes disciples.»"» 19 Les disciples firent ce que Jésus leur avait ordonné et ils préparèrent le repas de la Pâque. 20 Le soir étant venu, il se mit à table avec ses douze disciples. 21 Pendant qu'ils mangeaient, il dit: « En vérité je vous le dis, l'un parmi vous me livrera.» 22 Ils étaient très attristés et chacun d'eux commença à lui demander: «Est-ce moi, Seigneur?» 23 Il répondit: «Celui qui trempe sa main avec moi dans le plat, c'est lui qui me livrera. 24 Le fils de l'homme s'en ira comme il est écrit de lui. Mais malheur à celui par qui le fils de l'Homme est livré! Mieux vaudrait pour cet homme de ne pas naître.» 25 Judas, qui voulait le livrer, lui dit: «Est-ce moi, Seigneur?» Il lui répondit: «Tu l'as dit toi même.» 26 Comme ils étaient en train de manger, Jésus prit du pain, le bénit, et le rompit. Il le donna aux disciples en disant: «Prenez et mangez. Ceci est mon corps.» 27 Il prit une coupe et rendit grâce. Il la leur donna en disant: «Buvez-en, vous tous; 28 car ceci est mon sang, celui de la nouvelle alliance qui a été versé pour plusieurs, pour le pardon des péchés. 29 Mais je vous le dis, je ne boirai plus de ce fruit de la vigne, jusqu'au jour où j'en prendrai de nouveau avec vous dans le Royaume de mon Père.» 30 Après avoir chanté, ils allèrent au Mont des Oliviers. 31 Alors Jésus leur dit: «Vous allez tous m'abandonner ce soir; car il est écrit: "Je frapperai le berger et les brebis du troupeau seront dispersées.'' 32 Mais après que je sois ressuscité, je vous devancerai en Galilée.» 33 Mais Pierre lui dit: «Même si tous les autres t'abandonnaient, je ne t'abandonnerai jamais.» 34 Jésus lui dit: «En vérité je te le dis, cette nuit même, avant que le coq ne chante, tu me renieras trois fois.» 35 Et Pierre lui dit: «Même si je dois mourir avec toi, je ne te renierai jamais.» Et tous les autres disciples dirent la même chose. 36 Alors Jésus alla avec eux au lieu appelé Gethsémané et dit à ses disciples: «Asseyez-vous ici pendant que je m'éloigne pour prier.» 37 Il prit avec lui Pierre et les deux fils de Zébedée, et il commença à éprouver de la tristesse et des angoisses. 38 Alors, il leur dit: «Mon âme est profondément attristée, même jusqu'à la mort. Restez ici et veillez avec moi.» 39 Il s'éloigna quelque peu, se jeta sur sa face et pria en disant: «Mon Père, si c'est possible, éloigne cette coupe de moi. Toutefois, pas ce que je veux, mais comme tu le veux.» 40 Il revint vers ses disciples et les trouva endormis. Alors, il dit à Pierre: «Quoi? Ne pourriez-vous pas veiller avec moi juste pour une heure? 41 Veillez et priez pour ne pas entrer en tentation. L'esprit est bien disposé, mais la chair est faible.» 42 Il s'éloigna une seconde fois et pria en disant: «Père, s'il n'est pas possible que cette coupe s'éloigne sans que je ne la boive, que ta volonté soit faite.» 43 Il vint encore et les trouva endormis; car leurs yeux étaient lourds de fatigue. 44 Alors il les quitta de nouveau et s'éloigna. Il pria une troisième fois en disant les mêmes mots. 45 Ensuite, Jésus retourna vers ses disciples et leur dit: «Dormez-vous et vous reposez-vous encore? Voici, l'heure est venue où le Fils de l'Homme est livré entre les mains des pécheurs. 46 Levez-vous, partons. Voici, celui qui me livre est près.» 47 Pendant qu'il parlait encore, Judas, l'un des douze, arriva. Une grande foule venant de chez les souverains sacrificateurs et les anciens du peuple arriva avec lui. Ils vinrent avec des épées et des gourdins. 48 L'homme qui allait livrer Jésus avait donné une consigne en disant: «Quiconque je vais embrasser, c'est lui, saisissez-le.» 49 Immédiatement, il vint vers Jésus et dit: «Salut maître!» Et il le baisa. 50 Jésus lui dit: «Ami, fais ce que tu es venu faire.» Alors ils vinrent, mirent la main sur Jésus, et le saisirent. 51 Voici, un de ceux qui étaient avec Jésus étendit sa main, tira son épée, frappa le serviteur du souverain sacrificateur et lui coupa une oreille. 52 Alors Jésus lui dit: «Remets ton épée à sa place, car tous ceux qui se serviront de l'épée périront par l'épée. 53 Penses-tu que je ne puisse pas faire appel à mon Père qui m'enverrait plus de douze légions d'anges? 54 Mais comment donc les Ecritures vont-elles s' accomplir, afin que ceci arrive?» 55 A cet instant là, Jésus dit à la foule: «Etes-vous venu avec des bâtons et des épées pour m'arrêter comme un voleur? J'étais tous les jours assis dans le temple et enseignant, et vous ne m'avez pas arrêté. 56 Mais tout cela est arrivé afin que s'accomplisse tout ce que les prophètes ont écrit.» Alors tous les disciples l'abandonnèrent et fuirent. 57 Ceux qui avaient arrêté Jésus le conduisirent chez Caïphe le souverain sacrificateur, où les scribes et les anciens s'étaient rassemblés. 58 Pierre le suivait à distance jusque dans la cour du souverain sacrificateur. Il entra et s'assit avec les gardes pour voir ce qui se passera. 59 Les principaux sacrificateurs et tout le conseil cherchaient un faux témoignage contre Jésus, afin de pouvoir le mettre à mort. 60 Ils ne trouvèrent rien, bien que plusieurs faux témoins se soient présentés. Plus tard, deux vinrent 61 et dirent: «Cet homme a dit "Je suis capable de détruire le temple de Dieu et de le reconstruire en trois jours."» 62 Le souverain sacrificateur se leva et lui dit: «Ne réponds-tu pas?» Qu'est-ce que ceux- ci témoignet contre toi?" 63 Mais, Jésus garda le silence. Le souverain sacrificateur lui dit: «Je t'ordonne par le Dieu vivant de nous dire si tu es le Christ, le Fils de Dieu.» 64 Jésus lui répondit: «Tu l'as dit toi-même. Mais je te le dis, désormais tu veras le Fils de l'Homme assis à la main droite de la puissance et venant sur les nuées du ciel.» 65 Alors le souverain sacrificateur déchira son vêtement et dit: «Il a blasphemé! pourquoi avons-nous encore besoin de témoignage? Voyez, vous avez entendu son blasphème. 66 Que pensez-vous?» Ils répondirent: «Il mérite la mort.» 67 Ils lui crachèrent sur la face, le frappèrent avec la paume de leurs mains 68 disant: «Prophétise nous, Christ. Qui t'a frappé?» 69 Pierre était assis dehors dans la cour, une servante vint à lui et dit: «Tu étais aussi avec Jésus le Galiléen.» 70 Mais il le nia devant tous, disant: «Je ne sais pas de quoi tu parles.» 71 Quand il se dirigea vers la porte de sortie, une autre servante le vit et dit à ceux qui étaient là: «Cet homme était aussi avec Jésus de Nazareth.» 72 Et il le nia de nouveau avec un serment: «Je ne connais pas cet homme.» 73 Peu de temps après, ceux qui étaient là vinrent et dirent à Pierre: «Certainement tu es aussi l'un d'eux; car ton accent t'a trahit.» 74 Alors, il se mit à faire des imprécations et à jurer: «Je ne connais pas cet homme.» Immédiatement, le coq chanta. 75 Pierre se rappela les paroles que Jésus lui avait dites: «Avant que le coq ne chante, tu m'auras renié trois fois.» Alors il sortit et pleura amèrement.

Chapter 27

1 Lorsque le matin arriva, tous les principaux sacrificateurs et les anciens du peuple complotèrent contre Jésus pour le faire mourir. 2 Ils le lièrent; l'emmenèrent et le livrèrent au gouverneur Pilate. 3 Alors, lorsque Judas qui l'avait trahi vit que Jésus avait été condamné, il se repentit et retourna les trente pièces d'argent aux principaux sacrificateurs et aux anciens, 4 et dit: «J'ai péché en trahissant le sang innocent.» Mais ils dirent: «En quoi cela nous importe? C'est ton affaire.» 5 Alors il jeta les trentes pièces d'argent dans le temple, se retira, sortit et alla se pendre. 6 Les principaux sacrificateurs prirent les pièces d'argent et dirent: «Ce n'est pas légal de mettre ceci dans la trésorerie car c'est le prix du sang.» 7 Ils discutèrent de cela ensemble et avec cet argent, achetèrent le champ du potier pour y ensevelir les étrangers. 8 Pour cette raison, ce champ a été appelé: «Le champ du sang» jusqu'à ce jour. 9 Alors ce qui avait été annoncé par Jérémie le prophète fut accompli disant: «Ils prirent les trente pièces d'argent, sa valeur estimée par le peuple d'Israël 10 et ils donnèrent cela pour le prix du champ du potier, Comme le Seigneur me l'avait ordonné.» 11 Maintenant, Jésus fut amané devant le gouverneur, et le gouverneur lui demanda: «Es-tu le Roi des Juifs?» Jésus lui répondit: «Tu le dis.» 12 Mais lorsqu'il fut accusé par les principaux sacrificateurs, et les anciens, il ne répondit pas. 13 Puis, Pilate lui dit: «N'entends-tu pas toutes les accusations contre toi?» 14 Mais il ne répondit même pas un mot, et le gouverneur fut grandement étonné. 15 Voici, Il était coutume pour le gouverneur à la fête de libérer un prisonnier choisi par la foule. 16 En ce temps, il y avait là un prisonnier connu de tous, nommé Barabbas. 17 Alors, lorsqu'ils étaient rassemblés, Pilate leur demanda: «Qui voulez-vous que je vous relâche? Barabbas, ou Jésus appelé Christ?» 18 il savait qu'ils l'avaient livré Jésus par jalousie. 19 Pendant qu'il était assis sur la chaise du jugement, sa femme lui fit parvenir un mot disant: «N'aie rien à faire avec cet homme innocent; car j'ai grandement souffert aujourd'hui dans un songe à cause de lui.» 20 Alors le chef des prêtres et les anciens persuadèrent la foule à demander Barabbas et de faire tuer Jésus. 21 Le gouverneur leur demanda: «Lequel des deux voulez-vous que je vous relâche?» Ils dirent: «Barabbas.» 22 Pilate leur demanda: «Que ferais-je de Jésus qui est appelé Christ» Ils répondirent tous: «Crucifie-le.» 23 Et il dit: «Pourquoi, quel crime a-t-il commis?» Mais ils crièrent même plus fort: «Crucifie le.» 24 Ainsi Pilate sut qu'il ne pouvait rien faire, mais un tumulte avait commencé, il prit de l'eau, lava ses mains devant la foule et dit: «Je suis innocent du sang de cet homme innocent. voyez ça vous mêmes.» 25 Tout le peuple dit: «Que son sang soit sur nous et sur nos enfants.» 26 Puis, il leur relâcha Barabbas mais il fit fouetter Jésus et le livra pour être crucifié. 27 Puis Les soldats du gouverneur conduisirent Jésus dans le prétoire et rassemblèrent toute la compagnie des soldats. 28 Ils lui otèrent ses vêtements et lui mirent une robe écarlate. 29 Ils fabriquèrent une couronne d'épines, la posa sur sa tête, et placèrent un bâton dans sa main droite. Ils s'agenouillèrent devant lui, se moquèrent en disant: «Salut, roi des Juifs!» 30 Et ils crachèrent sur lui, prirent le roseau et lui frappèrent la tête. 31 Après s'être moqués de lui, ils lui otèrent le manteau, lui remirent ses propres vêtements, puis ils l'emmenèrent pour le crucifier. 32 Lorsqu'ils sortirent, ils trouvèrent un homme de Cyrène nommé Simon, qu'ils obligèrent à aller avec eux afin qu'il porte sa croix. 33 Ils arrivèrent à un lieu appelé Golgotha, qui veut dire: «Le Lieu du Crâne». 34 Ils lui donnèrent du vin à boire mélangé avec du fiel; mais lorsqu'il le goûta, il refusa de boire. 35 Lorsqu'ils l'eurent crucifié, ils se partagèrent ses vêtements en les tirant au sort; 36 et ils s'assirent et l'observèrent. 37 Au dessus de sa tête, ils mirent l'objet de l'accusation, où était écrit: «C'est Jésus le roi des Juifs.» 38 Deux voleurs étaient crucifiés avec lui, l'un à sa droite et l'autre à sa gauche. 39 Ceux qui passèrent l'insultèrent secouant leurs têtes 40 en disant: «Toi qui disait que tu pouvais détruire le temple et le rebâtir en trois jours, sauve toi, toi -même! Si tu es le Fils de Dieu, descends de la croix!» 41 De la même manière, les principaux sacrificateurs se moquaient de lui avec les scribes et les anciens, et disaient: 42 «Il a sauvé les autres mais il ne peut se sauver lui-même. Il est le roi d'Israël, qu'il descende de la croix et nous croirons en lui. 43 Il croit en Dieu, que Dieu le délivre maintenant s'il l'estime car il a dit: «Je suis le Fils de Dieu"». 44 Et les voleurs qui étaient crucifiés avec lui, lui addressa aussi les mêmes insultes. 45 Maintenant, dès la sixième à la neuvième heure, les ténèbres vinrent sur tout le pays. 46 Vers la neuvième heure, Jésus s'écria d'une voix forte et dit: «Eli, Eli, Lama sabachthani?» ce qui signifie: «Mon Dieu, mon Dieu, Pourquoi m'as tu abandonné?» 47 Lorsque quelques-uns de ceux qui étaient là entendirent cela, ils dirent: «Il appelle Elie.» 48 Immédiatement l'un d'eux courut et pris une éponge, la remplit de vinaigre, la mit sur un roseau et la lui donna pour boire. 49 Les autres dirent: «Laisse le; voyons si Elie vient le sauver.» 50 Jésus cria de nouveau à haute voix et rendit son esprit. 51 Voici, le voile du temple se déchira en deux du haut vers le bas. La terre trembla et les rochers se fendirent. 52 Les tombeaux s'ouvrirent et les corps de nombreux saints qui avaient été ensevelis furent ressuscités. 53 Ils sortirent des tombes après la résurrection de Jésus, ils entrèrent dans la ville sainte puis apparurent à beaucoup de personnes. 54 Lorsque le centenier et ceux qui surveillaient Jésus virent le tremblement de terre et les choses qui s'étaient passées, ils eurent très peur et dirent: «Certainement celui-ci était le Fils de Dieu.» 55 Plusieurs femmes qui avaient suivi Jésus depuis la Galilée pour prendre soin de lui étaient là, observant à distance. 56 Parmi elles, étaient Marie de Magdala, Marie mère de Jacques et Joseph, et la mère des fils de Zébédée. 57 Le soir venu, arriva un homme riche d'Arimathée, nommé Joseph qui était aussi un disciple de Jésus. 58 Il s'approcha de Pilate et demanda le corps de Jésus. Et Pilate ordonna qu'on le lui remette. 59 Joseph prit le corps, l'enveloppa dans un linceul propre 60 et le deposa dans sa propre tombe nouvelle qu'il avait faite tailler dans le rocher. Puis, il roula une grosse pierre à l'entrée de la tombe et s'en alla. 61 Marie de Magdala et l'autre Marie étaient là, assises en face de la tombe. 62 Le jour suivant qui était le jour après la Préparation, Les principaux sacrificateurs et les pharisiens s'assemblèrent autour de Pilate. 63 Ils dirent: «Excellence, Nous nous souvenons que quand cet imposteur était vivant, il a dit: "Après trois jours, je ressusciterai." 64 Alors ordonne que la tombe soit gardée jusqu'au troisième jour. Sinon ses disciples pouraient venir et l'enlever et dire au peuple: "Il est ressuscité des morts," cette dernière imposture sera pire que la première.» 65 Pilate leur dit: «Prenez un garde. Allez assurer la sécurité autant que vous le pouvez.» 66 Ils allèrent et sécurisèrent le tombeau, scellant la pierre et y plaçant la garde.

Chapter 28

1 Après le sabbat, à l'aube du premier jour de la semaine, Marie de Magdala et l'autre Marie vinrent pour voir le sepulcre. 2 Voici, il y eut un grand tremblement de terre, car un ange du Seigneur descendit du ciel, vint et roula la pierre, et s'assit dessus. 3 Son apparence était éclatante et ses vêtements blancs comme la neige. 4 Les gardes tremblèrent de peur et devinrent comme morts. 5 L'ange s'adressa aux femmes et leur dit: «Ne soyez pas terrifiées, car je sais que vous cherchez Jésus, qui a été crucifié. 6 Il n'est plus ici mais est ressuscité, comme il l'avait dit. Venez et voyez le lieu où le Seigneur était couché. 7 Allez rapidement et dites à ses disciples: «Il est ressuscité des morts; et voyez, il vous dévance en Galilée. Là vous le verrez.» Voici, Je vous l'ai dit.» 8 Alors les femmes quittèrent la tombe rapidement. Elles étaient effrayées mais joyeuses. Elles coururent en vue de l' annoncer à ses disciples. 9 Voici, Jésus les rencontra et dit: «Paix à vous.» Les femmes vinrent, saisirent ses pieds et l'adorèrent. 10 Alors Jésus leur dit: «N'ayez pas peur. Allez dire à mes frères de se rendre en Galilée; là ils me verront.» 11 Pendant que les femmes allaient, voici, quelques gardes entrèrent dans la ville et dirent au chef des prêtres toutes les choses qui furent arrivées. 12 Quand les prêtres eurent rencontré les anciens et discuté cet événement, ils donnèrent une forte somme d'argent aux soldats 13 et leur dirent: «Dites que les disciples de Jésus vinrent de nuit et volèrent son corps pendant que vous dormiez. 14 Si ce rapport arrive au gouverneur, nous le persuaderons et éloignerons toute sanction de vous.» 15 Ainsi; les soldats prirent l'argent et ils firent comme ils avaient été instruits. Ce bruit se répandit parmi les Juifs et continue même aujourd'hui. 16 Mais les onze disciples allèrent en Galilée, à la montagne que Jésus leur avait montré. 17 Quand ils le virent, ils l'adorèrent mais quelques-uns doutèrent. 18 Jésus s'étant approché, leur parla ainsi: «Toute autorité m'a été donnée dans le ciel et sur la terre. 19 Allez, faites de toutes les nations des disciples, les baptisant au nom du Père, du Fils et du Saint-Esprit. 20 Enseignez-leur à obéir tout ce que je vous ai commandé. Et voici, je suis avec vous toujours, jusqu'à la fin du monde.»

Translating "believe" and "believe in":
* To "believe" could be translated as to "know to be true" or "know to be right." * To "believe in" could be translated as "trust completely" or "trust and obey" or "completely rely on and follow."

Translating "believer":

love

Related Ideas:

brotherly love

Definition:

To love another person is to care for that person and do things that will benefit him. There are different meanings for "love" some languages may express using different words:

  1. The kind of love that comes from God is focused on having good things happen to others even when those good things do not happen to the one who loves. This kind of love cares for others, no matter what they do. God himself is love and is the source of true love.

  2. Jesus showed this kind of love by sacrificing his life in order to rescue us from sin and death. He also taught his followers to love others sacrificially.

  3. When people love others with this kind of love, they act in ways that show they are thinking of what will cause the others to thrive. This kind of love especially includes forgiving others.
  4. In the ULB, the word "love" refers to this kind of sacrificial love, unless a Translation Note indicates a different meaning.

  5. Another word in the New Testament refers to brotherly love, or love for a friend or family member.

  6. This term refers to natural human love between friends or relatives.

  7. The term can also be used in such contexts as, "They love to sit in the most important seats at a banquet." This means that they "like very much" or "greatly desire" to do that.

  8. The word "love" can also refer to romantic love between a man and a woman.

  9. In the figurative expression "Jacob I have loved, but Esau I have hated," the term "loved" refers to God's choosing of Jacob to be in a covenant relationship with him. This could also be translated as "chosen." Although Esau was also blessed by God, he wasn't given the privilege of being in the covenant. The term "hated" is used figuratively here to mean "rejected" or "not chosen."
