[Matthew 8]

 

             {Mat 8:1, 8:5-13 & Luk 7:1-10 Capernaum.}

             ^8:1 Now he himself came-down from the mountain; large crowds followed him.

 

             {Mar 1:40-45 & Mat 8:2-4 & Luk 5:12-16.}

             ^8:2 And behold, a leper came, and was worshiping him, saying, Lord, if you should will it, you are able to cleanse me.

             ^8:3 And Jesus stretched out his hand and touched him, saying, I am willing; be cleansed. And immediately his leprosy was cleansed. ^8:4 And Jesus says to him, See that you should speak to no one, but proceed-away, show yourself to the priest and offer the gift which Moses commanded, ^*for a testimony to them. {Lev 13:49, 14:2-4}

 

             {Mat 8:1, 8:5-13 & Luk 7:1-10 Capernaum.}

             ^8:5 Now after he {i.e., Jesus} entered into Capernaum, a centurion came to him, pleading with him, ^8:6 and saying, Lord, my young-servant, a paralytic, has been put {Or: cast.} in the house, terribly tormented.

             ^8:7 And Jesus says to him, After I have gone there, I will heal him.

             ^8:8 And the centurion answered and way saying, Lord, I am not sufficient that^* you should enter under my roof, but only speak by {i.e., with} a word and my young-servant will be healed. ^8:9 For^* I am a man also under authority, having soldiers under myself and I say to this one, Travel on and he is traveling on, and to another, Come and he comes, and to my bondservant, Do^* this and he does^* it.

             ^8:10 Now after Jesus heard it, he marveled and said to the ones who are following, Assuredly I am saying to you^°, Not even in Israel, have I found so-great a faith. {Or: belief; and throughout the N.T.} ^8:11 But I am saying to you^°, Many will be coming from the east and the west, and will be reclined with Abraham and Isaac and Jacob in the kingdom of the heavens; ^8:12 but the sons of the kingdom will be cast forth into the darkness, the outer one; the weeping and the gnashing of teeth will be there. ^8:13 And Jesus said to the centurion, Proceed-away, and as you have believed, let it happen for you. And his young-servant was healed in that hour.

 

             {Mar 1:29-34 & Mat 8:14-17 & Luk 4:38-41 Capernaum.}

             ^8:14 And after Jesus came into Peter’s house, he saw that his mother-in-law has been put in bed and fevered. ^8:15 And he touched her hand and the fever left her, and she arose and was serving him. ^8:16 Now after it became evening, they brought to him many demon-possessed and he cast forth the spirits with a word and healed all having an illness; ^{8:17 *}that what was said through Isaiah the prophet might be fulfilled, saying, ‘He himself took our weaknesses and bore the diseases.’ {Isa 53:4}

 

             {Mar 4:35-41 & Mat:8:18-27 & Luk 8:22-25 Sea of Galilee.}

             ^8:18 Now after Jesus saw large crowds around him, he commanded them to go away on the other-side. ^8:19 And one scribe came near to him, and said, Teacher, I will be following you wherever you go.

             ^8:20 And Jesus says to him, The foxes have burrows and the birds of the heaven have nests, but the Son of Man has nowhere he may bow {i.e., lay} his head.

             ^8:21 Now a different one of his disciples said to him, Lord, permit^* me first to go away and bury my father.

             ^8:22 But Jesus said to him, Follow me, and leave the dead to bury their own dead.

 

             ^8:23 And they stepped into the ship and his disciples followed him. ^8:24 And behold, a great squall happened in the sea, so-as for the ship to be hidden by the waves, but he himself was sleeping. ^8:25 And the disciples went and awakened him, saying, Lord, save us! We are perishing!

             ^8:26 And he says to them, Why are you^° cowardly? You of small faith! Then he raised himself up and rebuked the winds and the sea, and a great calm happened.

             ^8:27 Now the men marveled, saying, What sort of man is this, that even the winds and the sea are obeying^* him?

 

             {Mar 5:1-21 & Mat 8:28-34 & Luk 8:26-40 Gergesa.}

             ^8:28 And when he himself came into the region of the Gergesenes, two demon-possessed men met him, coming forth out-of the tombs, exceedingly fierce, so-then not anyone was able to prevail or to pass through that way. ^8:29 And behold, they cried out, saying, What is this thing with us and with you, Jesus, Son of God? Did you come here to torment us before the time? ^8:30 Now a herd of many swine was being fed from afar, away from them. ^8:31 And the demons were pleading with him, saying, If you cast us forth, permit^* us to go away into the herd of swine.

             ^8:32 And he said to them, Proceed-away^°! Now they came forth and went into the herd of the swine and behold, all the herd of swine rushed down the cliff into the sea and died in the waters. ^8:33 Now the ones feeding them fled and went away into the city and reported all things and even the things of the ones being demon-possessed. ^8:34 And behold, all the city came out ^*for a meeting with Jesus and after they saw him, they pleaded with him ^*that he should go-away from their borders.
