John 1: (Back)

1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with Elohim, and the Word was Elohim. 2 The same was in the beginning with Elohim. 3 All things were made by Him, and without Him was not anything made that was made. 4 In Him was life; and the life was the light of men. 5 The light shines in darkness, but the darkness comprehends it not! 6 There was a man sent from Elohim, whose name was John. 7 The same came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, which all men through Him might believe. 8 He was not that Light, but was sent to bare witness of that Light. 9 That was the true Light, which lights everyone that comes into the world. 10 He was in the world, and the world was made by Him, but the world knew Him not. 11 He came unto His own, and His own received Him not. 12 But as many as received Him, to them He gave power to become the sons of Elohim, even to them that believe on His name. 13 They were born not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of Elohim. 14 The Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory, as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth. 15 John bare witness of Him, and cried, saying: This was He of whom I spoke; He that comes after me is preferred before me, for He was before me. 16 And of His fullness we have all received, and grace for grace. 17 For the Torah was given by Moses, but grace and truth came by Messiah Yeshua. 18 No man has seen Elohim at any time; the only begotten Adon, which is in the bosom of the Father, He has declared Him. 19 And this is the record of John, when the Jews sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask him: Who are you? 20 And he confessed, and denied not; but confessed, I am not the Messiah. 21 And they asked him: What then? Are you Elias? And he said: I am not! Are you The Prophet? And he answered: No! 22 Then they said unto him: Who are you? That we may give an answer to them that sent us. What do you say of yourself? 23 He responded: The voice of those who cry in the wilderness: Prepare The Way of Adonai! So said the prophet Isaiah. (Isa 40:3) 24 They that were sent were of the Pharisees, 25 and they asked him: Why do you baptize then, if you are not that Messiah, nor Elias, nor the Prophet? 26 John answered them saying: I baptize with water, but there stands One among you, whom you know not. 27 He it is, who coming after me, is preferred before me, whose shoe latches I am not worthy to unloose! 28 These things were done in Bethabara beyond Jordan, where John was baptizing. 29 The next day John sees Yeshua coming unto him and said: Behold the Lamb of Elohim, which takes away the sin of the world. 30 This is He of whom I said, after me comes One that is preferred before me; for He was before me. 31 And I knew Him not, but that He should be made manifest to Israel, therefore I come, baptizing with water. 32 And John bare record saying: I saw the Spirit descending from heaven like a dove, and it abode upon Him. 33 And I knew Him not, but He that sent me to baptize with water, the same said unto me: Upon whom you shall see the Spirit descending, and remaining on Him, the same is He which baptize with the Holy Spirit. 34 And I saw, and I bear record that this is the Son of Elohim. 35 Again the next day after John stood, and two of his disciples, 36 And looking upon Yeshua as He walked, he said: Behold the Lamb of Elohim! 37 And the two disciples heard him speak, and they followed Yeshua. 38 Then Yeshua turned, and saw them following, and said unto them: What do you seek? They said: Rabbi (which being interpreted is Master), where do You dwell? 39 He said unto them: Come and see! They came and saw where He dwelt, and abode with Him that day, for it was about the tenth hour {4 pm}. 40 One of the two that heard John speaking and followed him was Andrew, Simon Peter's brother. 41 He first finds his own brother Simon, and said unto him: We have found the Messiah! 42 So he brought him to Yeshua. When Yeshua beheld him He said: You are Simon the son of Jona. You shall be called Cephas! (which is by interpretation, a Stone). 43 The day following, Yeshua would go forth into Galilee, and find Philip, and said unto him: Follow Me! 44 Philip was of Bethsaida, the city of Andrew and Peter. 45 Philip finds Nathanael and said unto him: We have found Him, of whom Moses in the Torah and the Prophets wrote: Yeshua of Nazareth, the son of Joseph. 46 And Nathanael said unto him: Can any good thing come out of Nazareth? Philip said unto him: Come and see! 47 Yeshua saw Nathanael coming to Him, and said of him: Behold an Israelite indeed, in whom is no guile! 48 Nathanael said unto Him: When did you know me? Yeshua answered and said unto him: Before Philip called you that, when you were under the fig tree, I saw you! 49 Nathanael answered and said unto Him: Rabbi, you are the Son of Elohim; you are the King of Israel. 50 Yeshua answered him: Because I said unto you: I saw you under the fig tree, you believe? You shall see greater things than these! 51 And He said unto him: Amen, amen, I say unto you; hereafter you shall see heaven open, and the angels of Elohim ascending and descending upon the Son of Man!

John 2: (Back)

1 And the third day there was a marriage in Cana of Galilee, and the mother of Yeshua was there, 2 and both Yeshua and His disciples were called to the marriage. 3 And when they wanted wine, the mother of Yeshua said unto Him: They have no wine. 4 Yeshua said unto her: Woman, what have I to do with this? My time has not yet come! 5 His mother said to the servants: Whatsoever He says to you, do it. 6 And there were set there six water pots of stone, after the manner of the purifying of the Jews, containing two or three firkins a piece. 7 Yeshua said unto them: Fill the water pots with water. And they filled them up to the brim. 8 And He said unto them: Draw out now, and bear unto the governor of the feast. And they bare it. 9 When the ruler of the feast had tasted the water that was made wine, and knew not where it was: (but the servants which drew the water knew;) the governor of the feast called the bridegroom, 10 And said unto him: Every man at the beginning sets forth the good wine, and when men have well drunk, then that which is worse. But you have kept the good wine until now. 11 This beginning of miracles that Yeshua did in Cana of Galilee, manifested forth His glory; and His disciples believed on Him. 12 After this He went down to Capernaum with His mother, His brethren and His disciples; and they continued there not many days. 13 And the Jews Passover was at hand, and Yeshua went up to Jerusalem, 14 And found in the Temple those that sold oxen, sheep and doves, and the changers of money sitting: 15 And when He had made a scourge of small cords, He drove them all out of the Temple, even the sheep and the oxen; and poured out the changers money, and overthrew the tables; 16 And said unto them that sold doves: Take these things away! Do not make My Father's house, a house of merchandise! 17 And His disciples remembered that it was written: The zeal of your house has eaten me up! (Psa 69:9) 18 Then answered the Jews and said unto Him: What sign do you show unto us, seeing that you do these things? 19 Yeshua answered and said unto them: Destroy this Temple, and in three days I will raise it up! 20 Then the Jews said: Forty–six years was this temple in building, and will You rear it up in three days? 21 But He spoke of the Temple of His body. 22 When therefore He was raised from the dead, His disciples remembered that He had said this unto them; and they believed the scripture, and the word that Yeshua had said. 23 Now when He was in Jerusalem at the Passover, in the feast day, many believed in His name, when they saw the miracles that He did. 24 But Yeshua did not commit Himself unto them, because He knew all men, 25 and needed not that any should testify of man; for He knew what was in man.

John 3: (Back)

1 There was a man of the Pharisees named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews. 2 The same came to Yeshua by night, and said unto Him: Rabbi, we know that you are a Teacher come from Elohim, for no man can do these miracles that you do, except Elohim be with Him. 3 Yeshua answered and said unto him: Amen, amen, I say unto you; except a man is born again, he cannot see the Kingdom of YHVH! 4 Nicodemus said unto Him: How can a man be born when he is old? Can he enter a second time into his mothers womb and be born? 5 Yeshua answered: Amen, amen, I say unto you; unless one is born of water * and then of the Spirit, they cannot enter into the Kingdom of YHVH! 6 That which is born of the flesh is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is the Soul. 7 Marvel not that I said unto you: You must be born again! 8 The wind blows where it wills, and you hear the sound thereof, but can not tell where it comes, and where it goes; so is everyone that is born of the Spirit. 9 Nicodemus answered and said unto Him: How can these things be? 10 Yeshua answered and said unto him: Are you a master of Israel and know not these things? 11 Amen, amen, I say unto you; we speak what we do know, and testify what we have seen; yet you do not receive our witness. 12 If I have told you earthly things, and you believe not; how shall you believe if I tell you of Heavenly things? 13 And no one has yet ascended up to Heaven, but He that came down from Heaven; the Son of Man which is in Heaven. 14 As Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of Man be lifted up; 15 that whoever believes Him should not perish, but have eternal life. 16 Elohim so Loved the world that He gave His only begotten Adon, so that whoever believes Him, would not perish, but have everlasting life. 17 For Elohim sent not Adonai into the world, to condemn the world, but that the world through Him could be saved. 18 Those that believe Him are not condemned; but those that do not believe, are condemned already, because they have not believed in the Name of the only begotten Adon of Elohim. 19 And this is the condemnation; that Light has come into the world, but people loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. 20 For everyone that does evil hates the light; neither will come to the light, lest their deeds should be exposed. 21 But those that do truth, comes into the light so their deeds may be made manifest; that they are performed by Elohim! 22 After these things Yeshua and His disciples came into the land of Judea; and there He tarried with them, and baptized. 23 And John also was baptizing in Aenon near to Salim because there was much water there, and they came and were baptized. 24 For John was not yet cast into prison. 25 Then there arose a question between some of John's disciples and the Jews about purifying. 26 And they came unto John, and said unto him: Rabbi, He that was with you beyond Jordan, to whom you bare witness; behold, the same baptizes, and all men come to Him. 27 John answered and said: A man can receive nothing, except it be given him from Heaven. 28 You yourselves bear me witness when I said that I am not the Messiah, but that I am sent before Him. 29 He that has the bride is the bridegroom, but the friend of the bridegroom, which stands and hears him, rejoices greatly because of the bridegroom's voice; my joy therefore is fulfilled. 30 He must increase, but I must decrease. 31 He that comes from above is above all; he that is of the earth is earthly and speaks of earthly things; He that comes from Heaven is above all. 32 And what He has seen and heard; that He testified, and no man receives His testimony. 33 He that has received His testimony has set to his seal that Elohim is true. 34 For He whom Elohim has sent speaks the words of Elohim; for Elohim gives not the Spirit by measure unto Him. 35 The Father Loves the Son, and has given all things into His hand. 36 Those that believe the Son has everlasting life; those that do not believe the Son shall not see life; the wrath of Elohim abides on them.

John 4: (Back)

1 When therefore The Lord knew how the Pharisees had heard that Yeshua made and baptized more disciples than John, 2 (though Yeshua Himself baptized not, but His disciples,) 3 He left Judea, and departed again into Galilee. 4 And He must and needs to go through Samaria. 5 Then He comes to a city of Samaria, which is called Sychar, near to the parcel of ground that Jacob gave to his son Joseph. 6 Now Jacob's well was there. Yeshua therefore, being wearied with His journey, sat thus on the well, and it was about the sixth hour {12 pm}. 7 There comes a woman of Samaria to draw water, Yeshua said unto her: Give Me to drink! 8 For His disciples were gone unto the city to buy meat. 9 Then said the woman of Samaria unto Him: How is it that You, being a Jew, ask a drink of me, a woman of Samaria? For the Jews have no dealings with the Samaritans. 10 Yeshua answered and said unto her: If you knew the gift of Elohim, and who it is that said to you, give me to drink; you would have asked of Him, and He would have given you living water. 11 The woman said unto Him: Sir, you have nothing to draw with, and the well is deep. From where then have you that living water? 12 Are you greater than our father Jacob, which gave us the well, and drank thereof himself, and his children and his cattle? 13 Yeshua answered and said unto her: Whoever drinks of this water shall thirst again, 14 but whoever drinks of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him, a well of water springing up into everlasting life. 15 The woman said unto him: Sir, give me this water that I thirst not, neither to come here to draw. 16 Yeshua said unto her: Go, call your husband, and come here. 17 The woman answered and said: I have no husband. Yeshua said unto her: You have well said, I have no husband, 18 for you have had five husbands, and he whom you now have, is not your husband; in that you say truly. 19 The woman said unto him: Sir, I perceive that you are a Prophet. 20 Our fathers worshiped in this mountain; and you say that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship. 21 Yeshua said unto her: Woman, believe Me, the time comes when you shall neither, in this mountain nor yet at Jerusalem, worship the Father. 22 You worship, but you know not what. We know what we worship, for Salvation is of the Jews. 23 But the time comes, and now is, when the true worshipers shall worship the Father in Spirit and in truth, for the Father seeks such to worship Him. 24 Elohim is a Spirit, and they that worship Him must worship him in Spirit and in truth. 25 The woman said: I know that the Messiah comes, and when He comes He will tell us all things. 26 Yeshua said unto her: I that speak unto you am He! 27 And upon this came His disciples, and marveled that He talked with the woman. Yet no man said: What do You seek? Or: Why did You talk with her? 28 The woman then left her water pot, went her way into the city, and said to the men: 29 Come, see a Man, which told me all things that ever I did! Is not this The Messiah? 30 Then they went out of the city, and came unto Him. 31 In the mean while His disciples prayed Him, saying: Master, eat! 32 But He said unto them: I have meat to eat that you know not of. 33 Therefore the disciples said one to another: Has anyone brought Him anything to eat? 34 Yeshua said unto them: My meat is to do the will of Him that sent Me, and to finish His work. 35 Do not all of you say: There are yet four months, and then comes harvest? Behold I say unto you: Lift up your eyes and look on the fields, for they are white already to harvest. 36 And he that reaps receives wages, and gathers fruit unto life eternal; that both he that sows and he that reaps may rejoice together. 37 And herein is that saying true: One sowed, and another reaped! (Micah 6:15) 38 I sent you to reap that whereon you bestowed no labor; other men labored, and you have entered into their labors. 39 And many of the Samaritans of that city believed on Him for the saying of the woman, which testified: He told me all that I ever did! 40 So when the Samaritans came unto Him, they besought Him to tarry with them: And so He abode there two days. 41 And many more believed because of His own word, 42 and said unto the woman, now we believe, not because of your saying, for we have heard Him ourselves, and know that this is indeed The Messiah, the Savior of the world. 43 Now after two days He departed there, and went into Galilee. 44 For Yeshua Himself testified that a prophet has no honor in His own country. 45 Then when He arrived into Galilee, the Galileans received Him, having seen all the things that He did at Jerusalem at the feast; for they also went unto the feast. 46 So Yeshua came again into Cana of Galilee where He had made the water wine. And there was a certain nobleman, whose son was sick at Capernaum. 47 When he heard that Yeshua had come out of Judea into Galilee, he went unto Him, and besought Him that He would come down, and heal his son; for he was at the point of death. 48 Then said Yeshua unto him: Except you see signs and wonders, you will not believe. 49 The nobleman said unto Him: Sir, come down ere my child die. 50 Yeshua said unto him: Go your way; your son lives. And the man believed the word that Yeshua had spoken unto him, and he went his way. 51 And as he was now going down, his servants met him and told him, saying: Your son lives! 52 Then he inquired of them the hour when he began to amend. And they said unto him: Yesterday at the seventh hour {1 pm} the fever left him. 53 So the father knew that it was at the same hour in which Yeshua said unto him, your son lives! He himself believed, and his whole house. 54 This is again the second miracle that Messiah Yeshua did, when He came out of Judea into Galilee.

John 5: (Back)

1 After this, there was a feast of the Jews, and Yeshua went up to Jerusalem. 2 Now, there is at Jerusalem by the sheep market, a pool that is called in the Hebrew language, Bethesda, having five porches. 3 In these lay a great multitude of impotent folk; of blind, halt, and withered, waiting for the moving of the water. 4 For an angel went down at a certain season into the pool, and troubled the water; whoever first, after the troubling of the water, stepped in, was made whole of whatever disease he had. 5 And a certain man was there, which had an infirmity for thirty–eight years. 6 When Yeshua saw him lie, and knew that he had been now a long time in that case, He said unto him: Will you be made whole? 7 The impotent man answered Him: Sir, I have no man, when the water is troubled, to put me into the pool. As I am coming another steps down before me. 8 Yeshua said unto him: Rise, take up your bed, and walk! 9 And immediately the man was made whole, and took up his bed and walked: On the same day was the sabbath. 10 The Jews therefore said unto him that was cured: It is the sabbath day; it is not lawful for you to carry your bed. 11 He answered them: He that made me whole, the same said unto me to take up your bed and walk! 12 Then they asked him: What Man is that which said unto you, Take up your bed, and walk? 13 And he that was healed knew not who it was, for Yeshua had conveyed Himself away, a multitude being in that place. 14 Afterward Yeshua finds him in the temple, and said unto him: Behold, you are made whole. Sin no more, lest a worse thing come unto you! 15 The man departed and told the Jews that it was Yeshua that had made him whole. 16 And therefore did the Jews persecute Yeshua, and sought to slay Him, because He had done these things on the sabbath. 17 But Yeshua answered them: My Father worked hitherto, and I work. 18 Therefore, the Jews sought all the more to kill Him, because He not only had broken the sabbath, but said also that Elohim was His Father, making Himself equal with Elohim. 19 Then Yeshua answered and said unto them: Amen, amen, I say unto you; the Son can do nothing of Himself, but what He sees the Father do, for what things so ever He does, these also do the Son likewise. 20 For the Father Loves the Son, and showed Him all things that Himself does; and He will show Him greater works than these that you may marvel. 21 For as the Father rose up the dead and quickened them, even so the Son quickened whom He will. 22 For the Father judges no man, but has committed all judgment unto the Son: 23 That all men should honor the Son, even as they honor the Father. He that honors not the Son, honors not the Father that has sent Him. 24 Amen, amen, I say unto you; he that hears My word, and believes on Him that sent Me, has everlasting life and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life. 25 Amen, amen, I say unto you; the time is coming, and now is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of Elohim, and they that hear shall live. 26 For as the Father has life in Himself; so has He given to the Son to have life in Himself; 27 and has given Him authority to execute judgment also, because He is the Son of Man. 28 Marvel not at this, for the time is coming in which all that are in the graves shall hear His voice, 29 and shall come forth; they that have done good, unto the resurrection of life; and they that have done evil, unto the resurrection of damnation. 30 I can of My own self do nothing: As I hear, I judge, and My judgment is just, because I seek not My own will, but the will of the Father that has sent Me. 31 If I bear witness of Myself, My witness is not true. 32 There is another that bears witness of Me, and I know that the witness whom He witnessed of Me is true. 33 You sent unto John, and he bare witness unto the truth. 34 But I receive not testimony from man, but these things I say that you might be saved. 35 He was a burning and a shining light and you were willing for a season to rejoice in his light. 36 But I have greater witness than that of John; for the works that the Father has given Me to finish, the same works that I do bear witness of Me, that the Father has sent Me. 37 And the Father Himself, which has sent Me, has borne witness of Me. You have neither heard His voice at anytime, nor seen His shape. 38 And you have not His word abiding in you, for whom He has sent; Him you believe not. 39 You search the scriptures, for in them you think you have eternal life; yet these are they that testify of Me. 40 And you will not come to Me, that you might have life. 41 I receive not honor from men. 42 But I know you; that you have not the Love of Elohim in you. 43 I have come in My Father's name, and you receive Me not: If another shall come in his own name, him you will receive. 44 How can you believe, which receive honor one of another, and seek not the honor that comes from Elohim only? 45 Do not think that I will accuse you to the Father; there is one that accuses you, even Moses, in whom you trust. 46 For had you believed Moses, you would have believed Me, for he wrote of Me. 47 But if you believe not his writings, how shall you believe My words?

John 6: (Back)

1 After these things, Yeshua went over the sea of Galilee, which is the sea of Tiberius. 2 And a great multitude followed Him, because they saw His miracles which He did on them that were diseased. 3 And Yeshua went up into a mountain, and there He sat with His disciples. 4 And the Passover, a feast of the Jews was nigh. 5 When Yeshua then lifted up His eyes and saw a great company come unto Him, He said unto Philip: Where shall we buy bread that all these may eat? 6 And He said this to prove Himself, for He knew what He was about to do. 7 Philip answered Him: Two hundred pennyworth of bread is not sufficient for them, even if everyone of them takes a little. 8 One of His disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, said unto Him: 9 There is a lad here which has five barley loaves, and two small fishes, but what are they among so many? 10 And Yeshua said: Make the men sit down. Now, there was much grass in the place, so the men sat down, in number about five thousand. 11 And Yeshua took the loaves, and when He had given thanks, He distributed to the disciples, and the disciples to them that were set down; and likewise of the fishes, as much as they would. 12 When they were filled, He said unto His disciples: Gather up the fragments that remain, that nothing be lost. 13 Therefore, they gathered them together, and filled twelve baskets with the fragments of the five barley loaves, which remained over and above unto them that had eaten. 14 Then those men, when they had seen the miracle that Yeshua did, said: This is of a truth, the Prophet that should come into the world. 15 When Yeshua therefore perceived that they would come and take Him by force, to make Him a King, He departed again into a mountain Himself alone. 16 And when it was evening, His disciples went down unto the sea, 17 and entered into a ship, and went over the sea toward Capernaum. And though it was now dark, Yeshua had not come to them. 18 And the sea arose by reason of a great wind that blew. 19 So when they had rowed about five and twenty or thirty furlongs, they see Yeshua walking on the sea, drawing nigh unto the ship, and they were afraid. 20 But He said unto them: It is I, be not afraid! 21 Then they willingly received Him into the ship, and immediately the ship was at the land where they went. 22 The following day, when the people which stood on the other side of the sea, saw that there was no other boat there, save that one that His disciples had entered, and that Yeshua went not with His disciples into that boat, but that His disciples had gone away alone: 23 (Howbeit there came other boats from Tiberius near the place where they ate bread after The Lord had given thanks:) 24 When the people therefore saw that Yeshua was not there, neither His disciples, they also took a ship and came to Capernaum, seeking Yeshua. 25 And when they had found Him on the other side of the sea, they said unto Him: Rabbi, how did You get here? 26 Yeshua answered them and said: Amen, amen, I say unto you all; you seek Me, not because you saw the miracles, but because you ate of the loaves and fish and were filled. 27 Labor not for the meat that perishes, but for that meat which endures unto everlasting life, which the Son of Man shall give unto you, for Him has Elohim the Father sealed. 28 Then they said unto Him: What shall we do, that we might work the works of Elohim? 29 Yeshua answered and said unto them: This is the work of Elohim; that you believe on Him whom He has sent! 30 They said therefore unto Him: What sign do you show then, that we may see and believe You? What do You work? 31 Our fathers ate manna in the desert, as it is written: He gave them bread from heaven to eat! (Exo 16:4,15) 32 Then Yeshua said unto them: Amen, amen, I say unto you; Moses gave you not that bread from heaven; but My Father gives you the true bread from Heaven. 33 For the bread of Elohim is He that comes down from Heaven, and gives life unto the world. 34 Then they said unto Him: Lord, evermore give us this bread. 35 And Yeshua said unto them: I Am the bread of life! He that comes to Me shall never hunger, and he that believes on Me shall never thirst. 36 But I say unto you, that you also have seen Me, and believe not. 37 All that the Father gives Me shall come to Me, and those that come to Me I will in no wise cast out. 38 For I came down from Heaven, not to do My own will, but the will of Him that sent Me. 39 And this is the Father's will which has sent Me; that of all which He has given Me, I should lose nothing, but should raise it up again at the last day. 40 And this is the will of Him that sent Me; that everyone that sees the Son and believes on Him, may have everlasting life, and I will raise him up at the last day. 41 The Jews then murmured at Him, because He said: I am the bread which came down from Heaven! 42 And they said: Is not this Yeshua, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? How is it then that He said: I came down from Heaven? 43 Yeshua therefore answered and said unto them: Murmur not among yourselves. 44 No man can come to Me, except the Father that has sent Me, draw him, and I will raise him up at the last day. 45 It is written in the prophets: And they shall all be taught of Elohim! Every man therefore that has heard, and has learned of the Father, comes unto Me. 46 Not that anyone has seen the Father, save He which is of Elohim; He has seen the Father. 47 Amen, amen, I say unto you; he that believes on Me has everlasting life. 48 I Am the bread of life! 49 Your fathers ate manna in the wilderness, and are dead. 50 This is the bread that comes down from Heaven; that a man may eat thereof, and not die. 51 I Am the living bread, which came down from Heaven: If anyone eats of this bread, he shall live forever, and the bread that I will give is My flesh, which I will give for the life of the world. 52 The Jews therefore strove among themselves, saying: How can this Man give us His flesh to eat? 53 Then Yeshua said unto them: Amen, amen, I say unto you; except you eat the flesh of the Son of Man, and drink His blood, you have no life in you. 54 Who so eats My flesh, and drinks My blood, has eternal life, and I will raise them up at the last day. 55 For My flesh is true meat indeed, and My blood is true drink indeed. 56 Those that eat My flesh and drink My blood dwells in Me, and I in them. 57 As the Living Father has sent Me, and I live by the Father, so he that eats Me, even they shall live by Me. 58 This is that bread which came down from Heaven; not as your fathers did eat manna and are dead. Those that eat of this bread shall live forever! 59 These things said He in the synagogue, as He taught in Capernaum. 60 Many therefore of His disciples, when they had heard this, said: This is a hard saying; who can hear it? 61 When Yeshua knew in Himself that His disciples murmured at it, He said unto them: Does this offend you? 62 What if you shall see the Son of Man ascend up where He was before? 63 It is the Spirit that quickens; the flesh profits nothing. The words that I speak unto you, they are Spirit and they are life. 64 But there are some of you that believe not. For Yeshua knew from the beginning, whom they were that believed not, and who should betray Him. 65 And He said: Therefore I said unto you that no man can come unto Me, except it was given unto him of My Father! 66 From that time many of His disciples went back and walked no more with Him. 67 Then said Yeshua unto the twelve: Will you also go away? 68 Then Simon Peter answered him: Lord, to whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal life! 69 And we believe and are sure that you are The Messiah, the Son of the only living Elohim. 70 Yeshua answered them: Have I not chosen you twelve, and one of you is of the devil? 71 He spoke of Judas Iscariot the son of Simon, for it was he that should betray Him, being one of twelve.

John 7: (Back)

1 After these things, Yeshua walked in Galilee; He would not walk in Judea because the Jews sought to kill Him. 2 Now, the Jewish Feast of Tabernacles was at hand; 3 His brethren therefore said unto Him: Depart here and go into Judea, so Your disciples may also see the works that You do. 4 For there is no man that does anything in secret, and he himself seeks to be known openly. If You do these things, show Yourself to the world. 5 For neither did His brethren believe in Him. 6 But Yeshua said unto them all: My time is not yet come, but your time is always ready. 7 The world cannot hate you; but it hates Me because I testify of it, that the works thereof are evil. 8 Go up unto this feast: I will not go up yet unto this feast, for My time is not yet full come. 9 When He had said these words unto them, He abode still in Galilee. 10 But when His brethren had gone up, He then went up also unto the feast, not openly, but as it were in secret. 11 Then the Jews sought Him at the feast, and said: Where is He? 12 And there was much murmuring among the people concerning Him. For some said: He is a good Man! Others said: Nay; but He deceives the people. 13 Howbeit no man spoke openly of Him for fear of the Jews. 14 Now about the midst of the feast, Yeshua went up into the Temple and taught. 15 And the Jews marveled, saying: How does this Man know letters, having never learned? 16 Yeshua answered them and said: My doctrine is not Mine, but His that sent Me. 17 If anyone will do His will, he shall know of the doctrine, whether it is of Elohim or whether I speak of Myself. 18 He that speaks of himself seeks his own glory: But He that seeks His glory that sent Him, the same is true, and no unrighteousness is in Him. 19 Did not Moses give you the Torah and yet none of you keeps the Torah? Why are you about to kill Me? 20 The people answered and said: You have a devil! Who goes about to kill You? 21 Yeshua answered and said unto them: I have done one work, and you all marvel. 22 Moses therefore gave unto you circumcision; (not because it is of Moses, but of the fathers;) and you on the sabbath day circumcise a man. 23 If a man on the sabbath day, receive circumcision, that the laws of Moses should not be broken; are you angry with Me, because I have made a man every whit whole on the sabbath day? 24 Judge not according to the appearance, but judge righteous judgment! 25 Then some of them of Jerusalem said: Is not this He, whom they seek to kill? 26 But, lo, He speaks boldly, and they say nothing unto Him. Do the rulers know indeed that this is the very Messiah? 27 Howbeit we know this Man where He is, but when Messiah comes, no man knows where He is. 28 Then Yeshua cried in the temple as He taught, saying: You both know Me, and you know where I am, and I am not come of Myself, but He that sent Me is true, whom you know not. 29 But I know Him, for I am from Him, and He has sent Me. 30 Then they sought to take Him, but no man laid hands on Him, because His time was not yet come. 31 And many of the people believed on Him, and said: When Messiah comes, will He do more miracles than these that this Man has done? 32 The Pharisees heard that the people murmured such things concerning Him, and the Pharisees and the chief priests sent officers to take Him. 33 Then said Yeshua unto them: Yet a little while I am with you, and then I will go unto Him that sent Me. 34 You shall seek Me and shall not find Me, and where I am, there you cannot come. 35 Then said the Jews among themselves: Where will He go, that we shall not find Him? Will He go unto the dispersed among the Gentiles, and teach the Gentiles? 36 What manner of saying is this that He said: You shall seek Me and shall not find Me, and where I am, there you cannot come? 37 On the last day, that great day of the feast, Yeshua stood and cried, saying: If anyone thirst, let him come unto Me and drink. 38 He that believes on Me, as the scripture has said: Out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water. 39 But this He spoke of the Spirit, which they that believe on Him should receive; for the Holy Spirit was not yet given, because Yeshua was not yet glorified. 40 Many of the people therefore, when they heard this saying, said: Of a truth, this is The Prophet! 41 Others said: This is the Messiah! But some said: Shall Messiah come out of Galilee? 42 Has not the scripture said that the Messiah comes of the seed of David, and out of the town of Bethlehem, where David was? 43 So there was a division among the people because of Him. 44 And some of them would have taken Him; but no man laid hands on Him. 45 Then came the officers to the chief priests and Pharisees, and they said unto them: Why have you not brought Him? 46 The officers answered: Never a man spoke like this Man! 47 Then the Pharisees answered: Are you also deceived? 48 Have any of the rulers or of the Pharisees believed on Him? 49 But the people who do not know the laws are cursed. 50 Nicodemus said unto them, (he that came to Yeshua by night, being one of them): 51 Does our law judge anyone, before it hears him and know what he does? 52 They answered and said unto him: Are you also of Galilee? Search, and look, for out of Galilee arises no prophet. 53 And every man went unto his own house.

John 8: (Back)

1 Yeshua went unto the Mount of Olives. 2 And early in the morning He came again into the Temple, and all the people came unto Him; and He sat down and taught them. 3 And the scribes and Pharisees brought unto Him a woman taken in adultery; and when they had set her in the midst, 4 they said unto Him: Master, this woman was taken in adultery, in the very act. 5 Now, Moses in the Torah commanded us that such should be stoned: But what do You say? 6 This they said, tempting Him that they might have to accuse Him. But Yeshua stooped down, and with His finger, wrote on the ground, as though He heard them not. 7 So when they continued asking Him, He lifted up Himself and said unto them: He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her! 8 And again He stooped down, and wrote on the ground. 9 And they which heard it, being convicted by their own conscience, went out, one by one, beginning with the eldest even unto the last. And Yeshua was left alone with the woman standing in the midst. 10 When Yeshua had lifted up Himself and saw none but the woman, He said unto her: Woman, where are those your accusers? Has no man condemned you? 11 She said: No man, Lord! And Yeshua said unto her: Neither do I condemn you; go, and sin no more. 12 Then Yeshua spoke again unto them, saying: I Am the light of the world; he that follows Me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life. 13 The Pharisees therefore said unto Him: You bear record of Yourself; Your record is not true. 14 Yeshua answered and said unto them: Though I bear record of Myself, yet My record is true, for I know where I came and where I go. But you cannot tell where I come, and where I go. 15 You judge after the flesh; I judge no man. 16 And yet if I judge, My judgment is true, for I am not alone, but I and the Father that sent Me. 17 It is also written in your law that the testimony of two men is true. 18 I Am One that bears witness of Myself, and the Father that sent Me bears witness of Me. 19 Then said they unto Him: Where is Your Father? Yeshua answered: You neither know Me nor My Father! If you had known Me, you should have known My Father also. 20 These words Yeshua spoke in the treasury, as He taught in the temple. But no one laid hands on Him for His time was not yet come. 21 Then said Yeshua again unto them: I go My way, and you shall seek Me, and shall die in your sins. Where I go you cannot come! 22 Then said the Jews: Will He kill Himself? Because He said: Where I go, you cannot come. 23 So He said unto them: You are from beneath, I Am from above; you are of this world, I Am not of this world. 24 I said therefore unto you that you should die in your sins, for if you believe not that I Am He, you shall die in your sins! 25 Then they said unto Him: Who are You? And Yeshua said unto them: Even the same that I said unto you from the beginning. 26 I have many things to say and to judge of you, but He that sent Me is true; and I speak to the world those things that I have heard of Him. 27 They understood not, that He spoke to them of The Father. 28 Then said Yeshua unto them: When you have lifted up the Son of Man, then shall you know that I Am He, and that I do nothing of Myself; but as My Father has taught Me, I speak these things. 29 And He that sent Me is with Me: The Father has not left Me alone, for I do always those things that please Him. 30 As He spoke these words, many believed on Him. 31 Then Yeshua said to those Jews which believed on Him: If you continue in My word, then you are My disciples indeed. 32 And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free! 33 They answered him: We are of Abraham's seed and were never in bondage to anyone. Why do you say: You shall be made free? 34 Yeshua answered them: Amen, verily, I say unto you; whoever commits sin is the servant of sin. 35 And the servant abides not in the house forever, but the Son abides forever. 36 If the Son therefore shall make you free, you shall be free indeed. 37 I know that you are Abraham's seed, but you seek to kill Me because My word has no place in you. 38 I speak that which I have seen with My Father, and you do that which you have seen with your father. 39 They answered and said unto him: Abraham is our father! Yeshua said unto them: If you were Abraham's children, you would do the works of Abraham. 40 But now you seek to kill Me, a Man that has told you the truth, which I have heard of Elohim: This did not Abraham. 41 You do the deeds of your father. Then they said to Him: We are not born of fornication; we have one father, even Elohim. 42 Yeshua said unto them: If Elohim was your Father, you would Love Me, for I proceeded forth and came from Elohim; neither came I of Myself, but He sent Me. 43 Why do you not understand My speech? Because you cannot hear My word! 44 You are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father you will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks of his own, for he is a liar and the father of it. 45 And because I tell you the truth, you believe Me not. 46 Which of you convinces Me of sin? And if I say the truth, why do you not believe Me? 47 Those that are of Elohim hears His words; you therefore hear them not, because you are not of Elohim. 48 Then answered the Jews, and said unto Him: Say we not well that you are a Samaritan, and have a devil? 49 Yeshua answered: I have not a devil; but I honor My Father, and you do dishonor Me. 50 And I seek not My own glory; there is One that seeks and judges. 51 Amen, amen, I say unto you; if a man keeps My saying, he shall never see death. 52 Then the Jews said unto Him: Now we know that you have a devil. Abraham is dead, and the prophets; and you say, If a man keeps My saying he shall never taste of death? 53 Are you greater than our father Abraham, which is dead? And the prophets are dead; who makes You Yourself? 54 Yeshua answered: If I honor Myself, My honor is nothing! It is My Father that honors Me; of whom you say, that He is your Adonai. 55 And yet, you have not known Him; but I know Him. And if I should say, I know Him not, I shall be a liar, like unto you; but I know Him and keep His saying. 56 Your father Abraham rejoiced to see My day, and he saw it and was glad. 57 Then said the Jews unto Him: You are not yet fifty years old, and have You seen Abraham? 58 Yeshua said unto them: Amen, amen, I say unto you; before Abraham was, I Am! 59 Then they took up stones to cast at Him, but Yeshua hid Himself, and went out of the temple, going through the midst of them, and so passed by.

John 9: (Back)

1 As Yeshua passed by, He saw a man which was blind from his birth. 2 So His disciples asked Him, saying: Master, who did sin, this man or his parents, that he was born blind? 3 Yeshua answered: Neither has this man sinned, nor his parents: But that the works of Elohim should be made manifest in him. 4 I must work the works of Him that sent Me, while it is day. The night comes, when no man can work. 5 As long as I Am in the world, I Am the light of the world! 6 When He had thus spoken, He spat on the ground and made clay of the spittle, and He anointed the eyes of the blind man with the clay, 7 and said unto him: Go, wash in the pool of Siloam (which is by interpretation, Sent *). He went his way therefore, and washed, and came seeing. 8 The neighbors therefore, and they that before had seen him, that he were blind, said: Is not this he that sat and begged? 9 Some said, this is he! Others said, he is like him! But he said: I am he! 10 Therefore they said to him: How were your eyes opened? 11 He answered and said: A man that is called Yeshua made clay and anointed my eyes, and said unto me: Go to the pool of Siloam and wash! So I went and washed, and I received sight. 12 Then they said unto him: Where is He? But he said: I know not! 13 They brought to the Pharisees him that aforetime was blind, 14 and it was the sabbath day when Yeshua made the clay and opened his eyes. 15 Then again, the Pharisees also asked him how he had received his sight. He said unto them: He put clay upon my eyes, and I washed, and do see. 16 Therefore, some of the Pharisees said: This Man is not of Elohim, because He keeps not the sabbath day. Others said: How can a Man that is a sinner do such miracles? So there was a division among them. 17 They said unto the blind man again: What do you say of Him that has opened your eyes? And he said: He is a Prophet! 18 But the Jews did not believe concerning him that he had been blind, and received his sight, until they called the parents of him that had received his sight. 19 And they asked them, saying: Is this your son who you say was born blind? How then does he now see? 20 His parents answered them and said: We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind. 21 But by what means he now sees, we know not; or who has opened his eyes, we know not. He is of age, ask him; he shall speak for himself. 22 These words spoke his parents, because they feared the Jews, for the Jews had agreed already that anyone confessing that He was Messiah would be put out of the synagogue. 23 Therefore his parents said: He is of age, ask him. 24 Then again they called the man that was blind and said to him: Give Elohim the praise; we know that this Man is a sinner. 25 He answered and said: Whether He is a sinner or no, I know not: One thing I do know; I was blind but now I see! 26 Then they said to him again: What did He do to you? How did He open your eyes? 27 He answered them: I have told you already and you did not hear. Therefore, would you hear it again? Will you also be His disciples? 28 Then they reviled him, and said: You are His disciple, but we are Moses disciples. 29 We know that Elohim spoke unto Moses. As for this Fellow, we know not from where He is. 30 The man answered and said unto them: Why herein is a marvelous thing, which you know not from where He is, and yet He has opened my eyes. 31 Now we know that Elohim hears not sinners, but if anyone is a worshiper of Elohim, and does His will, him He hears. 32 Since the world began it was not heard of that anyone opened the eyes of one that was born blind? 33 If this Man were not of Elohim, He could do nothing. 34 They answered and said unto him: You were altogether born in sins, now you teach us? And they cast him out. 35 Yeshua heard that they had cast him out, and when He had found him, He said unto him: Do you believe on the Son of Elohim? 36 He answered and said: Who is He Lord that I might believe on Him? 37 And Yeshua said unto him: You have both seen Him, and it is He that talks with you. 38 And he said: Lord, I believe! And he worshiped Him. 39 And Yeshua said: For judgment I came into this world, that they which see not, might see; and that they which see, might be made blind. 40 And some of the Pharisees, which were with Him, heard these words, and said unto Him: Are we blind also? 41 Yeshua said unto them: If you were blind, you should have no sin; but now you say: We see! Therefore, your sin remains.

John 10: (Back)

1 Amen, amen, I say unto you; he that enters not by the door into the sheepfold, but climbs up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber. 2 But he that enters in by the door is the shepherd of the sheep. 3 To him the porter opens, and the sheep hear his voice, and he calls his own sheep by name, and leads them out. 4 And when he puts forth his own sheep, he goes before them and the sheep follow him, for they know his voice. 5 And a stranger they will not follow, but will flee from him, for they know not the voice of strangers. 6 This parable Yeshua spoke unto them, but they understood not what things they were, which He spoke unto them. 7 Then said Yeshua unto them again: Amen, amen, I say unto you; I Am the door of the sheep. 8 All that ever came before Me are thieves and robbers, but the sheep did not hear them. 9 I Am the door: By Me if anyone enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture. 10 The thief comes not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I came that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly. 11 I Am the good shepherd! The good shepherd gives His life for the sheep. 12 But he that is a hireling, and not the shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, sees the wolf coming, and leaves the sheep and flees, and the wolf catches them, and scatters the sheep. 13 The hireling flees because he is a hireling, and cares not for the sheep. 14 I Am the good shepherd, and know My sheep, and am known of Mine. 15 As the Father knows Me, even so I know the Father, and I lay down My life for the sheep. 16 And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold: Them also I must bring, and they shall hear My voice; and there shall be one fold, and one shepherd. 17 Therefore does My Father Love Me, because I lay down My life, that I might take it again. 18 No man takes it from Me, but I lay it down of Myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This commandment have I received of My Father. 19 There was a division therefore again among the Jews for these sayings. 20 And many of them said: He has a devil, and is mad; why listen to Him? 21 Others said: These are not the words of one that has a devil. Can a devil open the eyes of the blind? 22 And it was the feast of the dedication at Jerusalem, and it was winter. 23 And Yeshua walked in the Temple in Solomon's porch. 24 Then came the Jews round about Him, and said unto Him: How long do you make us to doubt? If you are the Messiah, tell us plainly. 25 Yeshua answered them: I told you, and you believed not: The works that I do in My Father's name, they bear witness of Me. 26 But you believe not, because you are not of My sheep, as I said unto you. 27 My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me. 28 And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish; neither shall anyone pluck them out of My hand. 29 My Father, which gave them Me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of My Father's hand. 30 I and My Father are One! (John 17:11) 31 Then the Jews took up stones again to stone Him. 32 But Yeshua answered them: Many good works have I showed you from My Father; for which of those works do you stone Me? 33 The Jews answered Him, saying: For a good work we stone You not, but for blasphemy; and because You being a Man, make Yourself as Elohim. 34 Yeshua answered them: Is it not written in your law: I said, you are gods? (Psa 82:6) 35 If He called them gods, unto whom the word of Elohim came, and the scripture cannot be broken, 36 you say of Him, whom the Father has sanctified and sent into the world, You blaspheme! because I said I am the Son of Elohim? 37 If I do not do the works of My Father, believe Me not. 38 But if I do, though you believe not Me, believe the works; that you may know and believe that the Father is in Me, and I in Him. 39 Therefore they sought again to take Him, but He escaped out of their hand, 40 and went away again beyond Jordan into the place where John at first baptized; and there He abode. 41 And many resorted unto Him, and said: John did no miracle; but all things that John spoke of this Man were true. 42 And many believed on Him there.

John 11: (Back)

1 Now a certain man was sick named Lazarus, of Bethany, the town of Mary and her sister Martha. 2 It was that Mary which anointed The Lord with ointment, and wiped His feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was sick. 3 Therefore, his sisters sent for Him, saying: Lord, behold, he whom You Love is sick. 4 When Yeshua heard that He said: This sickness is not unto death, but for the glory of Elohim, that the Son of Elohim might be glorified thereby. 5 Now Yeshua Loved Martha and her sister, and Lazarus. 6 When He had heard therefore that he was sick, He abode two days still in the same place where He was. 7 Then after that He said to His disciples: Let us go into Judea again. 8 His disciples say unto Him: Master, the Jews of late sought to stone You, and now You go there again? 9 Yeshua answered: Are there not twelve hours in the day? If anyone walk in the day, he stumbles not, because he sees the light of this world. 10 But if a man walk in the night, he stumbles, because there is no light in him. 11 These things He said, and after that He said unto them: Our friend Lazarus sleeps; but I go, that I may awake him out of sleep. 12 Then His disciples said: Lord, if he sleeps, he shall do well. 13 Howbeit Yeshua spoke of his death, but they thought that He had spoken of taking of rest in sleep. 14 Then Yeshua said unto them plainly: Lazarus is dead. 15 And I am glad for your sakes that I was not there, to the intent you may believe. Nevertheless, let us go unto him. 16 Then Thomas, which is called Didymus, said unto his fellow disciples: Let us also go, that we may die with him. 17 Then when Yeshua came, He found that he had lain in the grave four days already. 18 Now Bethany was near unto Jerusalem, about fifteen furlongs off: 19 And many of the Jews came to Martha and Mary to comfort them concerning their brother. 20 Then Martha, as soon as she heard that Yeshua was coming, went and met Him: But Mary still sat in the house. 21 Then Martha said unto Yeshua: Lord, if You had been here my brother had not died. 22 But I know that even now, whatsoever you will ask of Elohim, Elohim will give it you. 23 Yeshua said unto her: Your brother shall rise again! 24 Martha said unto Him: I know that he shall rise again in the resurrection at the last day. 25 Yeshua said unto her: I Am the resurrection and the life! He that believes in Me, though he were dead, yet shall he live. 26 And whoever lives and believes in Me shall never die. Do you believe this? 27 She said unto Him: Yea, Lord! I believe that you are the Messiah, the Son of Elohim, which should come into the world. 28 And when she had so said, she went her way and called Mary her sister secretly, saying: The Master is here and calls for you. 29 As soon as she heard that she arose quickly, and came unto Him. 30 Now Yeshua was not yet into the town, but was in that place where Martha met Him. 31 The Jews then, which were with her in the house comforting her; when they saw Mary rising up hastily and went out, followed her, saying: She goes unto the grave to weep there. 32 Then when Mary came where Yeshua was and saw Him, she fell down at His feet, saying unto Him: Lord, if You had been here my brother had not died. 33 When Yeshua therefore saw her weeping, and the Jews also weeping which came with her, He groaned in the spirit, and was troubled, 34 and said: Where have you laid him? They said unto Him: Lord, come and see! 35 Yeshua wept! 36 Then the Jews said: Behold how He Loved him! 37 And some of them said: Could not this Man, which opened the eyes of the blind, have caused that even this man should not have died? 38 Yeshua therefore again groaning in Himself went to the grave. It was a cave, and a stone lie upon it. 39 Yeshua said: Take away the stone. Martha, the sister of him that was dead, said unto Him: Lord, by this time he stinks, for he has been dead four days. 40 Yeshua said unto her: Said I not unto you, that, if you would believe, you should see the glory of Elohim? 41 Then they took away the stone from the place where the dead were laid. And Yeshua lifted up His eyes and said: Father, I thank You that You have heard Me. 42 And I know that You hear Me always. But because of the people standing by I said it, that they may believe that You have sent Me. 43 And when He thus had spoken, He cried with a loud voice: Lazarus, come forth! 44 And he that was dead came forth, bound hand and foot with grave clothes, and his face was bound about with a napkin. Yeshua said unto them: Loose him, and let him go. 45 Then many of the Jews that came to Mary, and had seen the things that Yeshua did, believed on Him. 46 But some of them went their ways to the Pharisees, and told them what things Yeshua had done. 47 Then the chief priests and the Pharisees gathered a council and said: What do we do? For this Man can do many miracles. 48 If we just let Him alone, all men will believe on Him, and the Romans shall come and take away both our place and nation. 49 And one of them, named Caiaphas, being the high priest that same year, said unto them: You know nothing at all, 50 nor consider that it is expedient for us that one man should die for the people, the whole nation will not perish. 51 And this he spoke not of himself; but being high priest that year, he prophesied that Yeshua should die for that nation, 52 And not for that nation only, but that He also should gather together in one, the children of Elohim that were scattered abroad. 53 Then from that day forth they took counsel together to put Him to death. 54 Yeshua therefore walked no more openly among the Jews; but went there unto a country near to the wilderness, into a city called Ephraim; there He continued with His disciples. 55 And the Jews Passover was nigh at hand, and many went out of the country, up to Jerusalem before the Passover, to purify themselves. 56 Then they sought Yeshua, and spoke among themselves as they stood in the temple: Do you think He will not come to the feast? 57 Now both the chief priests and the Pharisees had given a commandment, that, if anyone knew where He were, he should show it, that they might take Him.

John 12: (Back)

1 Then six days before the Passover, Yeshua came to Bethany, where Lazarus, which had been dead, was, whom He raised from the dead. 2 There they made Him a supper, and Martha served; but Lazarus was one of them that sat at the table with Him. 3 Then Mary took a pound of ointment of spikenard, very costly, and anointed the feet of Yeshua, and wiped His feet with Her hair, and the house was filled with the odor of the ointment. 4 Then one of His disciples; Judas Iscariot, Simon's son, which should betray him, said: 5 Why was this ointment not sold for three hundred pence and given to the poor? 6 This he said, not that he cared for the poor; but because he was a thief, and had the bag, bearing what was put therein. 7 Then Yeshua said: Let her alone! Against the day of My burying has she kept this. 8 For the poor always you have with you, but Me you have not always. 9 Much people of the Jews therefore knew that He was there, and they came, not for Yeshua's sake only, but that they might see Lazarus also, whom He had raised from the dead. 10 But the chief priests consulted that they might put Lazarus also to death, 11 because that by reason of him, many of the Jews went away, and believed on Yeshua. 12 On the next day many people that came to the feast, when they heard that Yeshua was coming to Jerusalem, 13 took branches of palm trees and went forth to meet Him, and cried: Hosanna! Blessed is the King of Israel that comes in the name of The Lord! (Psa 118:26) 14 And Yeshua, when He had found a young ass, sat thereon; as it is written: 15 Fear not, daughter of Sion, behold, your King comes, sitting on an ass's colt! (Zec 9:9) 16 These things His disciples did not understand at first; but when Yeshua was glorified, they then remembered that these things were written of Him, and that they had done these things unto Him. 17 The people therefore that was with Him when He called Lazarus out of his grave and raised him from the dead, bare record. 18 For this cause, the people also met Him, for that they heard that He had done this miracle. 19 The Pharisees therefore said among themselves: Do you perceive how you prevailed nothing? Behold, the world has gone after Him. 20 And there were certain Greeks among them that came up to worship at the feast: 21 They came therefore to Philip, which was of Bethsaida of Galilee, and desired him, saying: Sir, we would see Yeshua. 22 Philip comes and tells Andrew, and again Andrew and Philip tell Yeshua. 23 And Yeshua answered them, saying: The time has come that the Son of Man should be glorified. 24 Amen, amen, I say unto you; except a corn of wheat fall into the ground and die, it abides alone: But if it dies, it brings forth much fruit. 25 He that loves his life shall lose it; and he that hates his life in this world shall keep it unto life eternal. 26 If anyone serves Me, let him follow Me, and where I am, there also shall My servant be. If anyone serve Me, him will My Father honor. 27 Now My soul is troubled, and what shall I say? Father, save Me from this time? But for this cause I came unto this time. 28 Father, glorify Your name! Then there came a voice from heaven, saying: I have both glorified it, and will glorify it again! 29 The people therefore, that stood by and heard it, said that it thundered; others said, an angel spoke to Him. 30 Yeshua answered and said: This voice came not because of Me, but for your sakes. 31 Now is the judgment of this world; now shall the prince of this world be cast out. 32 And I, if I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto Me. 33 This He said, signifying what death He should die. 34 The people answered Him: We have heard out of the Torah that The Messiah abides forever; why do you say: The Son of Man must be lifted up? Who is this Son of Man? 35 Then Yeshua said unto them: Yet a little while is the light with you. Walk while you have the light, lest darkness comes upon you, for he that walks in darkness knows not where he goes. 36 While you have light, believe in the light, that you may be the children of light. These things Yeshua spoke, and departed, and hid Himself from them. 37 But though He had done so many miracles before them, yet they believed not on Him; 38 that the saying of Isaiah the prophet might be fulfilled, which he spoke: Lord, who has believed our report? And to whom has the arm of The Lord been revealed? (Isa 53:1) 39 Therefore they could not believe, because that Isaiah said again: 40 He has blinded their eyes, and hardened their heart; that they should not see with their eyes, nor understand with their heart and be transformed, and I should heal them! (Isa 6:10) 41 These things said Isaiah, when he saw His glory, and spoke of Him. 42 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, 43 for they loved the praise of men more than the praise of Elohim. 44 Yeshua cried and said: He that believes on Me believes not on Me, but on Him that sent Me. 45 And he that sees Me sees Him that sent Me. 46 I came, a light into the world, that whoever believes on Me should not abide in darkness. 47 And if anyone hear My words, and believe not, I judge him not, for I came not to judge the world, but to save the world. 48 He that rejects Me, and receives not My words, has one that judges him: The word that I have spoken, the same shall judge him in the last day. 49 For I have not spoken of Myself, but the Father that sent Me; He gave Me a commandment, what I should say and what I should speak. 50 And I know that His commandment is life everlasting. Whatsoever I speak therefore, even as the Father said unto Me, so I speak.

John 13: (Back)

1 Now, before the feast of the Passover, Yeshua knew that His time had come that He should depart out of this world, and unto the Father, having Loved His own which were in the world. He Loved them unto the end. 2 As supper ended, the devil having now put into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon's son, to betray Him; 3 Yeshua knowing that the Father had given all things into His hands, and that He had come from Elohim and was returning to Elohim, 4 He rose from supper, and laid aside His garments, and took a towel and girded Himself. 5 After that He poured water into a basin, and began to wash the disciples feet, and to wipe them with the towel wherewith He was girded. 6 Then He comes to Simon Peter, and Peter said unto Him: Lord, do You wash my feet? 7 Yeshua answered and said unto him: What I now do you know not; but you shall know hereafter. 8 Peter said unto Him: You shall never wash my feet. Yeshua answered him: If I do not wash you; you have no part with Me. 9 Simon Peter said unto Him: Lord, not my feet only, but also my hands and my head. 10 Yeshua said to him: He that is washed needs not, save to wash his feet, but is clean everywhere; you are clean, but not all. 11 For He knew who should betray Him; therefore He said: You are not all clean! 12 So after He had washed their feet, and had taken His garments, and was set down again, He said unto them: Do you know what I have done to you? 13 You call Me Master and Lord, and you say well, for so I Am. 14 If I then, your Lord and Master, have washed your feet; you also ought to wash one another's feet. 15 For I have given you an example that you should do, as I have done to you. 16 Amen, amen, I say unto you; the servant is not greater than his lord; neither he that is sent greater than he that sent him. 17 If you know these things, happy are you if you do them. 18 I speak not of you all: I know who I have chosen, but that the scripture may be fulfilled; one that eats bread with Me has lifted up his heel against Me! 19 Now I tell you before it come, that, when it is coming to pass, you may believe that I am He. 20 Amen, amen, I say unto you; he that receives whomsoever I send receives Me, and he that receives Me, receives Him that sent Me. 21 When Yeshua had thus said, He was troubled in spirit, and testified, and said: Amen, amen, I say unto you; that one of you shall betray Me. 22 Then the disciples looked at one another, doubting of whom He spoke. 23 Now there was leaning on Yeshua's bosom, one of His disciples, whom Yeshua Loved. 24 Simon Peter therefore beckoned to him that he should ask who it should be of whom He spoke. 25 He then lying on Yeshua's breast said unto Him: Lord, who is it? 26 Yeshua answered: It is he to whom I shall give a sop, when I have dipped it. And when he had dipped the sop, he gave it to Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon. 27 And after the sop, Satan entered into him. Then Yeshua said unto him: What you must do, do quickly. 28 Now, no one at the table knew for what intent He spoke this unto him. 29 For some of them thought, because Judas had the bag that Yeshua had said unto him, to buy those things that we have need of against the feast; or, that he should give something to the poor. 30 He then having received the sop went out immediately, and it was night. 31 Therefore, when he had gone out, Yeshua said: Now is the Son of Man glorified, and Elohim is glorified in Him. 32 If Elohim be glorified in Him, Elohim shall also glorify Him in Himself, and shall straightway glorify Him. 33 My teknion, for a little while I am with you. You shall seek Me, and as I said unto the Jews: Where I go, you cannot come! So I say now to you. 34 A new commandment I give unto you; that you Love one another! As I have Loved you, so you also Love one another. 35 By this shall everyone know that you are My disciples, if you have Love, one to another. 36 Simon Peter said unto him: Lord, where will you go? Yeshua answered him: Where I go, you cannot follow Me now; but you shall follow Me afterwards. 37 Peter said unto Him: Lord, why can I not follow You now? I will lay down my life for Your sake. 38 Yeshua answered him: Will you lay down your life for my sake? Amen, amen, I say unto you; the cock shall not crow, until you have denied Me thrice.

John 14: (Back)

1 Let not your heart be troubled. You believe in Elohim, believe also in Me. 2 In My Father's house are many mansions: If it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. 3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto Myself; that where I am, there you may be also. 4 And where I go, you know, and The Way you know. 5 Thomas said unto him: Lord, we do not know where You are going, how can we know the way? 6 Yeshua said unto him: I Am the way, and the truth and the life; no one comes unto the Father, but by Me. 7 If you had known Me, you should have known My Father also, and from henceforth you know Him and have seen Him! 8 Philip said unto Him: Lord, show us the Father, and it suffices us. 9 Yeshua said unto him: Have I been so long a time with you, and yet you have not known Me, Philip? He that has seen Me has seen the Father. Why do you say then: Show us the Father? 10 Do you not believe that I am in the Father, and the Father in Me? The words that I speak unto you, I do not speak of Myself, but the Father that dwells in Me; He does the works! 11 Believe Me that I am in the Father, and the Father in Me, or else, believe Me for the very works sake. 12 Amen, amen, I say unto you; he that believes on Me, the works that I do, he shall do also; and greater works than these he shall do, because I go unto My Father. 13 And whatsoever you shall ask in My name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. 14 If you shall ask anything in My name, I will do it. 15 If you Love Me, keep My commandments, 16 and I will pray the Father, and He shall give you another Comforter; that He may abide with you forever; 17 indeed the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it does not see Him, neither knows Him. But you know Him, for He dwells with you, and shall be in you. 18 I will not leave you comfortless; I will come to you. 19 Yet a little while, and the world sees Me no more; but you see Me, because I live, as you shall live also. 20 On that day, you shall know that I Am in My Father, and you in Me, and I in you. 21 He that has My commandments and keeps them; it is he that Loves Me, and he that Loves Me shall be Loved of My Father, and I will Love him, and will manifest Myself to him. 22 Judas (not Iscariot) said unto Him: Lord, how is it that You will manifest Yourself unto us, and not unto the world? 23 Yeshua answered and said unto him: If a man Loves Me, he will keep My words, and My Father will Love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him. 24 He that Loves Me not, keeps not My sayings, and the word that you hear is not Mine, but the Father's that sent Me. 25 These things I have spoken unto you, being yet present with you. 26 But the Comforter, which is the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name; He shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you. 27 Peace I leave with you, My peace I give unto you; not as the world gives, do I give unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid. 28 You have heard how I said unto you, I go away, and come again unto you. If you Loved Me, you would rejoice, because I said I go unto the Father, for My Father is greater than I. 29 And now I have told you before it comes to pass, that, when it has come to pass, you might believe. 30 Hereafter, I will not talk much with you, for the prince of this world comes, and has nothing in Me. 31 But, that the world may know that I Love the Father; and as the Father gave Me commandment, even so I do. Arise; let us go now.

John 15: (Back)

1 I Am the true vine, and My Father is the vine–dresser. 2 Every branch in Me that bears no fruit, He takes away; and every branch that bears fruit, He purges it that it may bring forth more fruit. 3 Now you are clean through the word, which I have spoken unto you. 4 Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself except it abide in the vine; no more can you, except you abide in Me. 5 I Am the vine, you are the branches; he that abides in Me, and I in him, the same brings forth much fruit, for without Me you can do nothing. 6 If a man does not abide in Me, he is cast forth as a withered branch, and men gather them and cast them into the fire and they are burned. 7 If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you, you shall ask what you will, and it shall be done unto you. 8 Herein is My Father glorified, that you bear much fruit; so shall you be My disciples. 9 As the Father has Loved Me, so have I Loved all you; continue in My Love. 10 If you keep My commandments, you shall abide in My Love, even as I have kept My Father's commandments, and abide in His Love. 11 These things have I spoken unto you, that My joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be full. 12 This is My commandment; that you Love one another, as I have Loved you. 13 Greater Love has no one than this, than to lay down one's life for their friends. 14 You are My friends, if you do whatsoever I command you. 15 Henceforth, I call you not servants, for the servant knows not what his lord does. But I have called you friends, for all things that I have heard of My Father, I have made known unto you. 16 You have not chosen Me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you that you should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain; that whatsoever you shall ask of the Father in My name, He may provide you. 17 These things I command you, that you Love one another. 18 If the world hates you, you know that it hated Me before it hated you. 19 If you were of the world, the world would love his own, but because you are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hates you. 20 Remember the word that I said unto you: The servant is not greater than his lord! If they have persecuted Me, they will also persecute you; if they have kept My saying, they will keep yours also. 21 But all these things will they do unto you for My name's sake, because they do not know Him that sent Me. 22 If I had not come and spoken unto them, they had not had sin, but now they have no cloak for their sin. 23 He that hates Me hates My Father also. 24 If I had not done among them, the works which none other man did, they had not had sin; but now they have both seen and hated, both My Father and Me. 25 But this comes to pass that the word might be fulfilled that is written in their law: They hated me without a cause! 26 But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, the Spirit of truth which proceeded from the Father, He shall testify of Me, 27 and you also shall bear witness, because you have been with Me from the beginning.

John 16: (Back)

1 These things have I spoken unto you, that you should not be offended. 2 They shall put you out of the synagogues: yea, the time comes, that whoever kills you will think they are doing a good service. 3 And these things they will do unto you because they have not known the Father or Me. 4 But these things I have told you, that when the time shall come you may remember that I told you of them. And these things I did not say unto you at the beginning, because I was with you. 5 But now I go My way to Him that sent Me, and none of you asked Me: Where are You going? 6 But because I have said these things unto you, sorrow has filled your heart. 7 Nevertheless I tell you the truth; it is expedient for you that I go away, for if I do not go away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send Him unto you. 8 And when He has come, He will reprove the world of sin and of righteousness and of judgment: 9 Of sin, because they believe not on Me; 10 of righteousness, because I go to My Father, and you will see Me no more; 11 of judgment, because the prince of this world is judged. 12 I have yet many things to say unto you, but you cannot bear them now. 13 Howbeit when the Spirit of truth has come, He will guide you into all truth, for He shall not speak of Himself; but whatsoever He shall hear, that shall He speak, and He will show you things to come. 14 He shall glorify Me, for He shall receive of Mine, and shall show it unto you. 15 All things that the Father has are Mine. Therefore, I said that He shall take of Mine, and shall show it unto you. 16 A little while, and you shall not see Me; and again, a little while, and you shall see Me, because I go to the Father. 17 Then some of His disciples said among themselves: What is this that He said unto us; A little while, and you shall not see Me: and again, a little while, and you shall see Me, because I go to the Father? 18 They said therefore: What is this that He said, a little while? We cannot tell what He said. 19 Now Yeshua knew that they were desirous to ask Him, and said unto them: Do you inquire among yourselves of that I said: A little while, and you shall not see Me; and again, a little while, and you shall see Me? 20 Amen, amen, I say unto you; that you shall weep and lament, but the world shall rejoice, and you shall be sorrowful, but your sorrow shall be turned into joy. 21 A woman when she is in travail, has sorrow because her hour has come, but as soon as she has delivered the child, she remembers no more, the anguish because of the joy that a child is born into the world. 22 You now therefore have sorrow, but I will see you again, and your heart shall rejoice, and your joy no man takes from you. 23 And in that day you shall ask Me nothing. Amen, amen, I say unto you; whatsoever you shall ask the Father in My name, He will give it you. 24 Hitherto, you have asked nothing in My name: Ask, and you shall receive, that your joy may be full. 25 These things I have spoken unto you in proverbs, but the time comes when I shall no longer speak unto you in proverbs, but I shall show you plainly of the Father. 26 At that day you shall ask in My name, and I say not unto you, that I will pray the Father for you: 27 For the Father Himself Loves you, because you have Loved Me, and have believed that I came out from Elohim. 28 I came forth from the Father, and came into the world; again I leave the world, and go to the Father. 29 His disciples said unto Him: Lo, now You speak plainly, and speak no proverbs. 30 Now we are sure that You know all things, and needs not that anyone should ask You. By this we believe that You came forth from Elohim. 31 Yeshua answered them: Do you now believe? 32 Behold, the time comes, yea has now come, that you shall be scattered, everyone to their own places, and shall be separated from Me. And yet, I Am never alone, because the Father is within Me! 33 These things I have spoken unto you, that in Me you might have peace. In the world you shall have tribulation; but be of good cheer, for I have overcome the world.

John 17: (Back)

1 These words Yeshua spoke, and lifted up His eyes to heaven and said: Father, the time has come; glorify Your Son so that Your Son also may glorify You. 2 As You have given Him power over all flesh, so may He give eternal life to as many as You have given Him. 3 And this is life eternal; that they might know You, the only true Elohim, and Messiah Yeshua, whom You have sent. 4 I have glorified You on Earth; I have finished the work that You gave Me to do. 5 And now, O Father, glorify Me with Your own self, with the glory that I had with You before the world was. 6 I have manifested Your Name unto those that You gave Me out of the world; Yours they were, and You gave them Me, and they have kept Your word. 7 Now, they have known that all things whatsoever You have given Me are of You: 8 For I have given unto them the words which You gave Me, and they have received them, and have known surely that I came out from You, and they have believed that You did send Me. 9 I pray for them: I pray not for the world, but for them that You have given Me, for they are Yours; 10 and all Mine are Yours, and Yours are Mine; and I Am glorified in them. 11 And now, I Am no longer in the world, but these are in the world, and I come to You. Holy Father, keep through Your own name those whom You have given Me; that they may be one as We are One! 12 While I was with them in the world, I kept them in Your name; those that You gave Me, I have kept, and none of them was lost, except the son of perdition; that the scripture might be fulfilled. 13 And now I come to You, and these things I speak in the world, that they might have My joy fulfilled in themselves. 14 I have given them Your word, but the world hates them because they are not of the world, even as I Am not of the world. 15 I pray not that You should take them out of the world, but that You should keep them from the evil. 16 They are not of the world, even as I Am not of the world. 17 Sanctify them through Your truth: Your word is truth! 18 As You have sent Me into the world, even so have I also sent them into the world, 19 and for their sake's I sanctify Myself that they also might be sanctified through the truth. 20 Now I pray, not for these alone, but for them also which shall believe on Me through their word; 21 that they all may be one, as You, Father, are in Me, and I in You; that they also may be one in Us; so that the world may believe that You have sent Me. 22 And the glory which You gave Me, I have given them; that they may be one, even as We are One: 23 I in them, and You in Me; that they may be made perfect in One; that the world may know that You have sent Me, and have Loved them as you have Loved Me! 24 Father, I will that they also, whom you have given Me, be with Me where I am; that they may behold My glory, which You have given Me, for you Loved Me before the foundation of the world. 25 O righteous Father, the world has not known You, but I have known You, and these have known that You have sent Me! 26 And I have declared unto them Your name, and will declare it; that the Love wherewith You have Loved Me may be in them, and I in them. (2 Esdras 2:26; Rom 8; Matt 5)

John 18: (Back)

1 When Yeshua had spoke these words, He went forth with His disciples over the brook Cedron, where there was a garden, into which He entered, and His disciples. 2 And Judas also, which betrayed him, knew the place, for Yeshua often times resorted there with His disciples. 3 Judas then, having received a band of men and officers from the chief priests and Pharisees, comes there with lanterns and torches and weapons. 4 Yeshua therefore, knowing all things that should come upon Him, went forth, and said unto them: Whom do you seek? 5 They answered Him: Yeshua of Nazareth! Yeshua said unto them: I Am He! And Judas also, which betrayed him, stood with them. 6 As soon then as He had said unto them, I Am He, they went backward and fell to the ground. 7 Then He asked them again: Whom do you seek? And they said: Yeshua of Nazareth! 8 Yeshua answered: I have told you that I Am He, if therefore you seek Me, let these others go their way! 9 So that the saying might be fulfilled, which He spoke: Of them which You gave Me have I lost none! (John 17:12) 10 Then Simon Peter having a sword, drew it, and smote the high priest's servant, and cut off his right ear. The servant's name was Malchus. 11 Then Yeshua said unto Peter: Put up your sword into the sheath; the cup that My Father has given Me, shall I not drink it? 12 Then the band and the captain and officers of the Jews took Yeshua, and bound Him, 13 and led Him away to Annas first, for he was father–in–law to Caiaphas, which was the high priest that same year. 14 Now, Caiaphas was he that gave counsel to the Jews that it was expedient that one man should die for the people. 15 And Simon Peter followed Yeshua, and so did another disciple. That disciple was known unto the high priest, and went in with Yeshua into the palace of the high priest. 16 But Peter stood at the door outside. Then went out that other disciple, which was known unto the high priest, and spoke unto her that kept the door, and brought in Peter. 17 Then the damsel that kept the door said unto Peter: Are not you also one of this Man's disciples? He said: I am not! 18 And the servants and officers stood there, who had made a fire of coals; for it was cold, and they warmed themselves. And Peter stood with them and warmed himself. 19 The high priest then asked Yeshua of His disciples, and of His doctrine. 20 Yeshua answered him: I spoke openly to the world; I ever taught in the synagogue, and in the temple where the Jews always resort; and in secret I have said nothing. 21 Why do you ask Me? Ask them which heard Me what I have said unto them: Behold, they know what I said. 22 And when He had thus spoken, one of the officers which stood by, struck Yeshua with the palm of his hand, saying: You answer the high priest so? 23 Yeshua answered him: If I have spoken evil, bear witness of the evil: But if well, why do you smite Me? 24 Now, Annas had sent Him bound unto Caiaphas the high priest. 25 And Simon Peter stood and warmed himself. They said therefore unto him: Are not you also one of His disciples? He denied it and said: I am not! 26 One of the servants of the high priest, being his kinsman whose ear Peter cut off, said: Did I not see you in the garden with Him? 27 Peter then denied again, and immediately the cock crew. 28 Then they led Yeshua from Caiaphas unto the hall of judgment, and it was early, so they themselves did not go into the judgment hall, lest they should be defiled; but that they might eat the Passover. 29 Pilate then went out unto them and said: What accusation do you bring against this Man? 30 They answered and said unto him: If He were not a malefactor, we would not have delivered Him up unto you. 31 Then Pilate said unto them: You take Him and judge Him according to your law. The Jews therefore said unto him: It is not lawful for us to put anyone to death: 32 That the saying of Messiah Yeshua might be fulfilled, which He spoke, signifying what death He should die. 33 Then Pilate entered into the judgment hall again and called Yeshua, and said unto Him: Are you the King of the Jews? 34 Yeshua answered him: Do you say this thing of yourself or did others tell it to you of Me? 35 Pilate answered: Am I a Jew? Your own nation and the chief priests have delivered You unto me. What have You done? 36 Yeshua answered: My Kingdom is not of this world; if My Kingdom were of this world, then My servants would fight, that I should not be delivered to the Jews: But now, My Kingdom is not from hence. 37 Pilate therefore said unto Him: Are You a king then? Yeshua answered: You say that I am a King. To this end I was born, and for this cause I came into the world, that I should bear witness unto the truth. Everyone that is of the truth hears My voice. 38 Pilate said unto Him: What is truth? And when he had said this, he went out again unto the Jews and said unto them: I find in Him no fault at all. 39 But you have a custom that I should release unto you, one at the Passover. Will you prefer that I release unto you, the King of the Jews? 40 Then they all cried again, saying: Not this Man, but Barabbas. Now Barabbas was a robber.

John 19: (Back)

1 Then Pilate therefore took Yeshua and scourged Him. 2 And the soldier's platted a crown of thorns, and put it on His head, and they put a purple robe on Him, 3 and said: Hail, King of the Jews! And they smote Him with their hands. 4 Pilate therefore went forth again and said unto them: Behold, I bring Him forth to you, that you may know that I find no fault in Him. 5 Then Yeshua came forth, wearing the crown of thorns and the purple robe. And Pilate said unto them: Behold the Man! 6 When the chief priests therefore and officers saw Him, they cried out, saying: Crucify Him, crucify Him. Pilate said unto them: Take Him and crucify Him, for I find no fault in Him. 7 The Jews answered him: We have the Torah, and by our law He ought to die, because He made Himself the Son of Elohim. 8 When Pilate therefore heard that saying he was even more afraid, 9 and went again into the judgment hall and said unto Yeshua: Where are You? But Yeshua gave him no answer. 10 Then said Pilate unto Him: You will not speak unto me? Don't You know that I have the power to crucify You, and have power to release You? 11 Yeshua answered: You could have no power at all against Me, except it is given to you from above. Therefore, he that delivered Me unto you has the greater sin. 12 And from thenceforth, Pilate sought to release Him, but the Jews cried out, saying: If you let this Man go, you are not Caesar's friend: Whoever makes himself a king speaks against Caesar. 13 When Pilate therefore heard that saying, he brought Yeshua forth and sat down in the judgment seat, in a place that is called The Pavement, or in Aramaic, Gabbatha. 14 And it was the Preparation of the Passover, and about the sixth hour {12 pm}, he said unto the Jews: Behold your King! 15 But they cried out: Away with Him, away with Him, crucify Him! Pilate said unto them: Shall I crucify your King? The chief priests answered: We have no king but Caesar. 16 Then he delivered Him therefore unto them to be crucified. And they took Yeshua, and led Him away. 17 And He, bearing His cross, went forth into a place called the place of a skull, which is called in the Hebrew, Golgotha, 18 where they crucified Him and two other with Him, one on either side, and Yeshua in the middle. 19 And Pilate wrote a title and put it on the cross, and the writing was: Yeshua of Nazareth; King of the Jews. 20 This title then many of the Jews read, for the place where Yeshua was crucified was near to the city, and it was written in Hebrew, Greek, and Latin. 21 Then the chief priests of the Jews said to Pilate: Do not write King of the Jews because He said: I am King of the Jews. 22 Pilate answered: What I have written I have written. 23 Then the soldiers, when they had crucified Yeshua, took His garments, and made four parts, to every soldier a part; and also His coat. Now the coat was without seam, woven from the top throughout. 24 They said therefore among themselves: Let us not rend it, but cast lots for it, whose it shall be; that the scripture might be fulfilled, which said: They parted my raiment among them, and for my vesture they did cast lots! (Psa 22:18) These things therefore the soldiers did. 25 Now there stood by the cross of Yeshua His mother, and His mother's sister, Mary the wife of Cleophas, and Mary Magdalene. 26 When Yeshua therefore saw His mother, and the disciple standing by whom He Loved, He said unto His mother: Woman, behold your son! 27 Then He said to the disciple: Behold your mother! And from that hour that disciple took her unto his own home. 28 After this, Yeshua, knowing that all things were now accomplished that the scripture might be fulfilled, said: I thirst! 29 Now, there was set a vessel full of vinegar, and they filled a sponge with vinegar and put it upon hyssop, and put it to His mouth. 30 When Yeshua therefore had received the vinegar, He said: It is finished! And He bowed His head and gave up the Spirit. 31 The Jews therefore, because it was the Preparation; that the bodies should not remain upon the cross on the sabbath day (for that sabbath day was a high day), besought Pilate that their legs might be broken and that they might be taken away. 32 Then the soldiers came, and broke the legs of the first, and of the other, which was crucified with Him. 33 But when they came to Yeshua, and saw that He was dead already, they did not brake His legs. 34 But one of the soldiers with a spear, pierced His side, and forthwith there came out blood and water. 35 And he that saw it bare record, and his record is true; and he knows that he said true, that you might believe. 36 For these things were done, that the scripture should be fulfilled: A bone of Him shall not be broken! (Exo 12:46) 37 And again another scripture said: They shall look on Him whom they pierced! (Zec 12:10) 38 And after this, Joseph of Arimathaea, being a disciple of Yeshua, but secretly for fear of the Jews, besought Pilate that he might take away the body of Yeshua, and Pilate gave him leave. He came therefore and took the body of Yeshua. 39 And there also came Nicodemus, which at the first came to Yeshua by night, and brought a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about a hundred pounds in weight. 40 Then they took the body of Yeshua, and wound it in linen clothes with the spices, as the manner of the Jews is to bury. 41 Now, in the place where He was crucified, there was a garden; and in the garden a new sepulcher, wherein was never man yet laid. 42 Therefore they laid Yeshua there because of the Jews Preparation day, for the sepulcher was nigh at hand.

1 The first day of the week, Mary Magdalene came early, while it was yet dark, unto the sepulcher, and sees the stone taken away from the sepulcher. 2 Then she runs and comes to Simon Peter and to the other disciple, whom Yeshua Loved, and said unto them: They have taken away The Lord out of the sepulcher, and we do not know where they have laid Him. 3 Peter therefore went forth, and that other disciple, and came to the sepulcher. 4 So they both ran together, and the other disciple outran Peter, and came first to the sepulcher. 5 And he, stooping down and looking in, saw the linen clothes lying; yet he did not go in. 6 Then, Simon Peter came following him and went into the sepulcher, and sees the linen clothes lie, 7 and the napkin that was about His head, not lying with the linen clothes, but wrapped together in a place by itself. 8 Then that other disciple went in also, which came first to the sepulcher, and he saw, and believed. 9 For as yet, they did not know the scripture; that He must rise again from the dead. 10 Then the disciples went away again unto their own home. 11 But Mary stood outside of the sepulcher weeping, and as she wept she stooped down and looked into the sepulcher, 12 and sees two angels in white sitting, the one at the head and the other at the feet, where the body of Yeshua had lain. 13 And They said unto her: Woman, why do you weep? She said unto them: Because they have taken away my Lord, and I do not know where they have laid Him. 14 And when she had thus said, she turned around and saw Yeshua standing, but did not know that it was Yeshua. 15 Yeshua said unto her: Woman, why do you weep? Who do you seek? She, supposing Him to be the gardener, said unto Him: Sir, if You have borne Him hence, tell me where You have laid Him, and I will take Him away. 16 Yeshua said unto her: Mary! She turned herself and said unto Him, Rabboni! which is to say, Master! 17 Yeshua said unto her: Touch Me not, for I am not yet ascended to My Father; but go to My brethren and say unto them: I ascend unto My Father, and your Father; and to My Elohim, and your Elohim. 18 Mary Magdalene came and told the disciples that she had seen The Lord, and that He had spoken these things to her. 19 Then the same day at evening, being the first day of the week, when the doors were shut where the disciples were assembled for fear of the Jews, Yeshua came and stood in the midst, and said unto them: Peace be unto you! 20 And when He had so said, He showed unto them His hands and side. Then the disciples were glad, when they saw The Lord. 21 Then said Yeshua to them again: Peace be unto you, as My Father has sent Me, even so send I you. 22 And when He had said this, He breathed on them, and said unto them, Receive now the Holy Spirit! 23 Whoever sins you remit, they are remitted unto them; and whoever sins you retain, they are retained. 24 But Thomas, one of the twelve, called Didymus, was not with them when Yeshua came. 25 The other disciples therefore said unto him: We have seen The Lord! But he said unto them: Except I shall see in His hands the print of the nails, and put my finger into the print of the nails, and thrust my hand into His side, I will not believe. 26 And after eight days, again His disciples were within, and Thomas with them: Then came Yeshua, the doors being shut, and stood in the midst and said: Peace be unto you! 27 Then He said to Thomas: Reach here with your finger, and behold My hands; and reach here with your hand, and thrust it into My side, and be not faithless, but believing. 28 And Thomas answered and said unto Him: My Lord and my Elohim! 29 Yeshua said unto him: Thomas, because you have seen Me, you have believed; blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed. 30 And many other signs Yeshua truly did in the presence of His disciples, which are not written in this book. 31 But these are written, that you might believe that Yeshua is the Messiah, the Son of Elohim; and that believing, you might have life through His name.

John 21: (Back)

1 After these things Yeshua showed Himself again to the disciples at the sea of Tiberius, and on this wise He showed Himself. 2 There together were Simon Peter, and Thomas called Didymus, and Nathanael of Cana in Galilee, and the sons of Zebedee, and two other of His disciples. 3 Simon Peter said unto them: I'll go fishing! And they replied: We will also go with you! So they went forth, and entered into a ship immediately; but that night they caught nothing. 4 But when the morning was now come, Yeshua stood on the shore: But the disciples did not know that it was Yeshua. 5 Then Yeshua said unto them: Teknion, have you any meat? And they answered: No! 6 So He said unto them: Cast the net on the right side of the ship, and you shall find. So they cast it therefore, and now they were not able to draw it in for the multitude of fishes. 7 Therefore that disciple whom Yeshua Loved said unto Peter: It is The Lord. Now when Simon Peter heard that it was The Lord, he wrapped his fisher's coat around himself (for he was naked), casting himself into the sea. 8 And the other disciples came in a little ship (for they were not far, about two hundred cubits from land,) dragging the net with fishes. 9 As soon as they landed, they saw a fire of coals there, and fish laid thereon, and bread. 10 Yeshua said unto them: Bring of the fish that you have now caught. 11 Simon Peter went up, and drew the net to land, full of great fishes, one hundred fifty three, and though there were so many, yet the net was not broken. 12 Yeshua said unto them: Come and dine! And none of the disciples dared ask Him: Who are you? Knowing that it was The Lord. 13 Yeshua then comes and takes bread, and gives them, and fish likewise. 14 This is now the third time that Yeshua showed Himself to His disciples after He was risen from the dead. 15 So when they had dined, Yeshua said to Simon Peter: Simon, son of Jonas, do you Love Me more than these? He said unto Him: Yea, Lord, you know that I Love You. He said unto him: Feed My lambs! 16 He said to him again the second time: Simon, son of Jonas, do you Love Me? He said unto Him: Yea, Lord, you know that I Love You. He said unto him: Feed My sheep! 17 He said unto him the third time: Simon, son of Jonas, do you Love Me? Peter was grieved because He said unto him three times: Do you Love Me? And so he said: Lord, You know all things; You know that I Love You. Yeshua said unto him: Feed My sheep! 18 Amen, amen, I say unto you; when you were young, you girded yourself, and walked where you would, but when you are old, you shall stretch forth your hands, and another shall gird you, and carry you where you would not. 19 This He spoke, signifying by what death he should glorify Elohim. And when He had spoken this, He said unto him: Follow Me! 20 Then Peter turned about to see the disciple whom Yeshua Loved, following, which also leaned on His breast at supper, and said: Lord, which is he that betrayed You? 21 Peter seeing him said to Yeshua: Lord, and what should this man do? 22 Yeshua said unto him: If I will that he tarry until I come, what is that to you? You follow Me! 23 Then went this saying abroad among the brethren, that this disciple should not die, yet, Yeshua did not say unto him, he shall not die; but, If I will that he tarry until I come, what is that to you? 24 This is the disciple, which testified of these things, and wrote these things, and we know that his testimony is true. 25 And there are also many other things, which Messiah Yeshua did; the which, if they should be written, everyone, I suppose that even the world itself could not contain the books that should be written. Amen!
