The ministry of John the Baptist

  • The results in Jerusalem

    Pericope 40 analyses the results of Jesus’ first preaching in Jerusalem during Passover in the year 30, according to John 2:23–25. Although many believed because of the miracles, Jesus remains reserved about this superficial faith, based on spectacle rather than sincere repentance. John emphasises Jesus’ divine ability to know the human heart. The article identifies two key points: the extended stay in Jerusalem and the divine nature of the Messiah’s discernment.

    John 2.23-25 (King James Version) :
    Now when he was in Jerusalem at the passover, in the feast day, many believed in his name, when they saw the miracles which he did.But Jesus did not commit himself unto them, because he knew all men,And needed not that any should testify of man: for he knew what was in man.

The beginning of the ministry in Galilee

  • Preaching in Galilee

    The article details Jesus' preaching in Galilee, highlighting his teaching in the synagogues and the impact of his miracles on the crowds. His disciples accompany him, while the religious authorities continue to question his identity.

    Matthew 4.23-25 (King James Version) :
    And Jesus went about all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing all manner of sickness and all manner of disease among the people.And his fame went throughout all Syria: and they brought unto him all sick people that were taken with divers diseases and torments, and those which were possessed with devils, and those which were lunatick, and those that had the palsy; and he healed them.And there followed him great multitudes of people from Galilee, and from Decapolis, and from Jerusalem, and from Judaea, and from beyond Jordan.

From the second to the third Passover festival

  • The healing of a leper after the Sermon on the Mount

    This article explores Jesus’ healing of a leper after the Sermon on the Mount, discussing the differing accounts in the Gospels of Matthew, Mark, and Luke. The healing is described as a challenge to the strict laws on purification, and the importance of observing the Law of Moses is emphasized. The article considers the continuity between different Gospel accounts.

    Luke 5.12-14 (King James Version) :
    And it came to pass, when he was in a certain city, behold a man full of leprosy: who seeing Jesus fell on his face, and besought him, saying, Lord, if thou wilt, thou canst make me clean.And he put forth his hand, and touched him, saying, I will: be thou clean. And immediately the leprosy departed from him.And he charged him to tell no man: but go, and shew thyself to the priest, and offer for thy cleansing, according as Moses commanded, for a testimony unto them.

  • Jesus the Messiah rebukes several towns

    Jesus rebukes the towns of Chorazin, Bethsaida and Capernaum for their failure to repent despite the many miracles performed in them. He compares them unfavourably with the pagan cities of Tyre, Sidon and even Sodom, declaring that those cities would have repented. This passage emphasises responsibility in proportion to the revelation received and the eternal stakes of rejecting the Gospel.

    Matthew 8.5-13 (King James Version) :
    And when Jesus was entered into Capernaum, there came unto him a centurion, beseeching him,And saying, Lord, my servant lieth at home sick of the palsy, grievously tormented.And Jesus saith unto him, I will come and heal him.The centurion answered and said, Lord, I am not worthy that thou shouldest come under my roof: but speak the word only, and my servant shall be healed.For I am a man under authority, having soldiers under me: and I say to this man, Go, and he goeth; and to another, Come, and he cometh; and to my servant, Do this, and he doeth it.When Jesus heard it, he marvelled, and said to them that followed, Verily I say unto you, I have not found so great faith, no, not in Israel.And I say unto you, That many shall come from the east and west, and shall sit down with Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, in the kingdom of heaven.But the children of the kingdom shall be cast out into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.And Jesus said unto the centurion, Go thy way; and as thou hast believed, so be it done unto thee. And his servant was healed in the selfsame hour.

    The article examines how Jesus refutes the Pharisees' accusations that he casts out demons through Satan, emphasizing his superior divine authority.

    Matthew 12.29 (King James Version) :

The last week before the arrest

  • Healing of blind and lame people

    After the cleansing of the Temple, Jesus heals the blind and the lame in the courtyard on Monday, March 28, AD 33. Only Matthew reports this episode. The crowd and the children acclaim him as Son of David, while the chief priests and the scribes, increasingly hostile, are indignant at these messianic demonstrations. This episode illustrates the contrast between the faith of the common people and the rejection by the religious authorities.

    Matthew 21.14 (King James Version) :
    And the blind and the lame came to him in the temple; and he healed them.

  • The unbelief of the Jews

    Pericope 300 deals with the unbelief of the Jews in the face of the signs performed by Jesus, an episode reported only by John (Jn 12,37-50), set in the Temple of Jerusalem on Wednesday, 30 March AD 33. In contrast, the poor widow's gift illustrates genuine faith. Jesus overturns human criteria: true generosity is measured not by the quantity given but by the disposition of the heart, offering to God all that one is.

    John 12.37-50 (King James Version) :
    But though he had done so many miracles before them, yet they believed not on him:That the saying of Esaias the prophet might be fulfilled, which he spake, Lord, who hath believed our report? and to whom hath the arm of the Lord been revealed?Therefore they could not believe, because that Esaias said again,He hath blinded their eyes, and hardened their heart; that they should not see with their eyes, nor understand with their heart, and be converted, and I should heal them.These things said Esaias, when he saw his glory, and spake of him.Nevertheless among the chief rulers also many believed on him; but because of the Pharisees they did not confess him, lest they should be put out of the synagogue:For they loved the praise of men more than the praise of God.Jesus cried and said, He that believeth on me, believeth not on me, but on him that sent me.And he that seeth me seeth him that sent me.I am come a light into the world, that whosoever believeth on me should not abide in darkness.And if any man hear my words, and believe not, I judge him not: for I came not to judge the world, but to save the world.He that rejecteth me, and receiveth not my words, hath one that judgeth him: the word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the last day.For I have not spoken of myself; but the Father which sent me, he gave me a commandment, what I should say, and what I should speak.And I know that his commandment is life everlasting: whatsoever I speak therefore, even as the Father said unto me, so I speak.

Healings

  • Raising of Jairus’ daughter

    L'article explore la résurrection de la fille de Jaïrus et la guérison d'une femme malade par Jésus, selon les évangiles de Matthieu, Marc et Luc. L'importance de la foi dans ces récits est soulignée, ainsi que les différences et similitudes dans les détails des événements. Ces miracles illustrent la compassion de Jésus et sa puissance de guérison.

    Matthew 9.18-26 (King James Version) :
    While he spake these things unto them, behold, there came a certain ruler, and worshipped him, saying, My daughter is even now dead: but come and lay thy hand upon her, and she shall live.And Jesus arose, and followed him, and so did his disciples.And, behold, a woman, which was diseased with an issue of blood twelve years, came behind him, and touched the hem of his garment:For she said within herself, If I may but touch his garment, I shall be whole.But Jesus turned him about, and when he saw her, he said, Daughter, be of good comfort; thy faith hath made thee whole. And the woman was made whole from that hour.And when Jesus came into the ruler’s house, and saw the minstrels and the people making a noise,He said unto them, Give place: for the maid is not dead, but sleepeth. And they laughed him to scorn.But when the people were put forth, he went in, and took her by the hand, and the maid arose.And the fame hereof went abroad into all that land.

Contradictions

  • The two blind men

    L'article explore les différences entre les récits évangéliques de la guérison d'un ou de deux aveugles à Jéricho par Jésus. Il examine Matthieu, Marc et Luc, clarifiant que la diversité narrative n'implique pas une contradiction. L'importance de la perspective individuelle des auteurs est soulignée.

    Luke 18.35-43 (King James Version) :
    And it came to pass, that as he was come nigh unto Jericho, a certain blind man sat by the way side begging:And hearing the multitude pass by, he asked what it meant.And they told him, that Jesus of Nazareth passeth by.And he cried, saying, Jesus, thou Son of David, have mercy on me.And they which went before rebuked him, that he should hold his peace: but he cried so much the more, Thou Son of David, have mercy on me.And Jesus stood, and commanded him to be brought unto him: and when he was come near, he asked him,Saying, What wilt thou that I shall do unto thee? And he said, Lord, that I may receive my sight.And Jesus said unto him, Receive thy sight: thy faith hath saved thee.And immediately he received his sight, and followed him, glorifying God: and all the people, when they saw it, gave praise unto God.

Miracles

  • Raising of Lazarus

    Jean 11:1-44 décrit la résurrection de Lazare, illustrant la puissance de Jésus sur la mort et sa compassion humaine. Ce miracle, en Béthanie, révèle le divin et l'humanité de Jésus, renforçant la foi de ses disciples. En ressuscitant Lazare après quatre jours dans le tombeau, Jésus montre qu'il est la résurrection et la vie, invitant à la foi pour la vie éternelle.

    John 10.40 (King James Version) :
    And went away again beyond Jordan into the place where John at first baptized; and there he abode.

  • Withering of the fig tree

    Dans Matthieu et Marc, Jésus maudit un figuier pour enseigner la foi et la prière. Sa parole dessèche l'arbre, illustrant la puissance de la foi. Marc insiste aussi sur l'importance du pardon. Les deux récits, bien que divergents dans l'ordre des événements, partagent le même enseignement central : la foi et la prière peuvent accomplir des merveilles si elles sont vécues sans douter.

    Matthew 21.18-22 (King James Version) :
    Now in the morning as he returned into the city, he hungered.And when he saw a fig tree in the way, he came to it, and found nothing thereon, but leaves only, and said unto it, Let no fruit grow on thee henceforward for ever. And presently the fig tree withered away.And when the disciples saw it, they marvelled, saying, How soon is the fig tree withered away!Jesus answered and said unto them, Verily I say unto you, If ye have faith, and doubt not, ye shall not only do this which is done to the fig tree, but also if ye shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; it shall be done.And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive.
