\v 1 And again he walked into the synagogue and there was a man with a withered hand.
|
|
\v 2 Some people watched him closely to see if he would heal him on the Sabbath so that they could accuse him.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\v 3 Jesus said to the man with the withered hand, "Get up and stand here in the middle of everyone."
|
|
\v 4 Then he said to the people, "Is it lawful to do good on the Sabbath day or to do harm; to save a life, or to kill?" But they were silent.
|

|

|
\v 9 He said to his disciples to have a boat ready for him because the pressure of the crowd was so great, they might crush him.

|
\s5

|
|
\v 15 and to have authority to cast out demons.
|
|
\v 16 He appointed the Twelve: To Simon he gave the name Peter;
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\v 17 James son of Zebedee, and John the brother of James (to whom he gave the name Boanerges, that is, sons of thunder);
|
|
\v 18 and Andrew, Philip, Bartholomew, Matthew, Thomas, James son of Alphaeus, Thaddaeus, Simon the Zealot,
|
|
\v 19 and Judas Iscariot, who would betray him.

|
|
\v 25 If a house is divided against itself, that house will not be able to stand.
|
|
|
|
\s5
|
|
\v 26 If Satan has risen up against himself and is divided, he is not able to stand, but has come to an end.
|
|
\v 27 But no one can enter into the house of a strong man and steal his belongings without tying up the strong man first. Then he will steal his belongings from his house.

\v 28 Truly I say to you, all sins of human beings may be forgiven, even all the blasphemies by which they blaspheme;
|
|
\v 29 but whoever blasphemes against the Holy Spirit will never have forgiveness, but that person is guilty of an eternal sin."
|
|
\v 30 Jesus said this because they were saying, "He has an unclean spirit."

|
|

|
|
\v 35 For whoever does the will of God, that person is my brother, and sister, and mother."
