Dual Panel1Then <2532> Jesus entered <1525> the synagogue <4864> again <3825>, and <2532> a man <444> was <1510> there <1563> who had <2192> a withered <3583> hand <5495>.
2They watched <3906> Jesus <846> closely <3906> to see if <1487> he would heal <2323> him <846> on the Sabbath <4521>, so that <2443> they could accuse <2723> him <846>.
3So <2532> he said <3004> to the man <444> who had <2192> the withered <3584> hand <5495>, “Stand up <1453> among <3319> all these people.”
4Then <2532> he said <3004> to them <846>, “Is it lawful <1832> to do good <15> on the Sabbath <4521>, or <2228> evil <2554>, to save <4982> a life <5590> or <2228> destroy <615> it?” But <1161> they were silent <4623>.
5After looking around <4017> at them <846> in <3326> anger <3709>, grieved <4818> by <1909> the hardness <4457> of <2588> their <846> hearts <2588>, he said <3004> to the man <444>, “Stretch out <1614> your <4675> hand <5495>.” He stretched <1614> it out <1614>, and <2532> his <846> hand <5495> was restored <600>.
6So <2532> the Pharisees <5330> went out <1831> immediately <2117> and began plotting <1325> plotting <4824> with <3326> the Herodians <2265>, as to how <3704> they could assassinate <622> him <846>.
7Then <2532> Jesus <2424> went away <402> with <3326> his <846> disciples <3101> to <4314> the sea <2281>, and <2532> a great <4183> multitude <4128> from <575> Galilee <1056> followed <190> him. And <2532> from <575> Judea <2449>,
8Jerusalem <2414>, Idumea <2401>, beyond <4008> the Jordan River <2446>, and <2532> around <4012> Tyre <5184> and <2532> Sidon <4605> a great <4183> multitude <4128> came <2064> to <4314> him <846> when <191> they heard <191> about the things <3745> he had done <4160>.
9Because of the crowd, he told <2036> his <846> disciples <3101> to have <2443> a small boat <4142> ready <4342> for him <846> so <1223> the crowd <3793> would <2346> not <3361> press toward <2346> him <846>.
10For <1063> he had healed <2323> many <4183>, so <5620> that all <3745> who were afflicted <2192> with diseases <3148> pressed toward <1968> him <846> in order <2443> to touch <680> him.
11And <2532> whenever <3752> the unclean <169> spirits <4151> saw <2334> him <846>, they fell down before <4363> him <846> and <2532> cried out <2896>, “You <4771> are <1510> the Son <5207> of God <2316>.”
12But <2532> he sternly ordered <2008> them <846> not <3361> to make <4160> him <846> known <5318>.
13Now <2532> Jesus went up <305> the mountain <3735> and <2532> called for <4341> those <3739> he <846> wanted <2309>, and <2532> they came <565> to <4314> him <846>.
14He <2532> appointed <4160> twelve <1427> (whom <3739> he named <3687> apostles <652>), so that <2443> they would be <1510> with <3326> him <846> and <2532> he could send <649> them <846> to preach <2784>
15and <2532> to have <2192> authority <1849> to cast out <1544> demons <1140>.
16He appointed twelve: To Simon <4613> he gave <2007> the name <3686> Peter <4074>;
17to James <2385> and <2532> his brother <80> John <2491>, the sons of Zebedee <2199>, he gave <2007> the name <3686> Boanerges <993> (that <3739> is <1510>, “sons <5207> of thunder <1027>”);
18and <2532> Andrew <406>, Philip <5376>, Bartholomew <918>, Matthew <3156>, Thomas <2381>, James <2385> the son of Alphaeus <256>, Thaddaeus <2280>, Simon <4613> the Zealot <2581>,
19and <2532> Judas <2455> Iscariot <2469>, who <3739> betrayed <3860> him <846>.
20Now Jesus went home, and a crowd <3793> gathered <4905> so that <5620> they were not <3361> able <1410> to eat <5315>.
21When his family heard <191> this they went out <1831> to restrain <2902> him <846>, for <1063> they said <3004>, “He is out of <1839> his mind <1839>.”
22The experts in the law <1122> who came down <2597> from <575> Jerusalem <2414> said <3004>, “He is possessed <2192> by Beelzebul <954>,” and <2532>, “By <1722> the ruler <758> of demons <1140> he casts out <1544> demons <1140>.”
23So <2532> he called <4341> them <846> and spoke <3004> to them <846> in <1722> parables <3850>: “How <4459> can <1410> Satan <4567> cast out <1544> Satan <4567>?
24If <1437> a kingdom <932> is divided <3307> against <1909> itself <1438>, that <1565> kingdom <932> will <1410> not <3756> be able <1410> to stand <2476>.
25If <1437> a house <3614> is divided <3307> against <1909> itself <1438>, that <1565> house <3614> will <1410> not <3756> be able <1410> to stand <2476>.
26And <2532> if <1487> Satan <4567> rises <450> against <1909> himself <1438> and <2532> is divided <3307>, he is <1410> not <3756> able <1410> to stand <2476> and <235> his end <5056> has come <2192>.
27But <235> no one <3762> is able <1410> to enter <1525> a strong man’s <2478> house <3614> and steal <1283> his <846> property <4632> unless <1437> <3361> he first <4412> ties up <1210> the strong man <2478>. Then <2532> <5119> he can thoroughly plunder <1283> his <846> house <3614>.
28I tell <3004> you <5213> the truth <281>, people will be forgiven <863> for all <3956> sins <265>, even <1437> all <3745> the blasphemies <988> they utter <987>.
29But <1161> whoever <302> blasphemes <987> against <1519> the Holy <40> Spirit <4151> will <859> never <3756> be forgiven <859>, but <235> is <1510> guilty <1777> of an eternal <166> sin <265>”
30(because <3754> they said <3004>, “He has <2192> an unclean <169> spirit <4151>”).
31Then <2532> Jesus <846>’ mother <3384> and <2532> his <846> brothers <80> came <2064>. Standing <4739> outside <1854>, they sent word <649> to <4314> him <846>, to summon <2564> him <846>.
32A crowd <3793> was sitting <2521> around <4012> him <846> and <2532> they said <3004> to him <846>, “Look <2400>, your <4675> mother <3384> and <2532> your <4675> brothers <80> are <2212> outside <1854> looking for <2212> you <4571>.”
33He <2532> answered <611> them <846> and said <3004>, “Who <5101> are <1510> my <3450> mother <3384> and <2532> my brothers <80>?”
34And <2532> looking at <4017> those who were sitting around <2521> him <846> in a circle <2945>, he said <3004>, “Here are <1492> my <3450> mother <3384> and <2532> my <3450> brothers <80>!
35For whoever <3739> <302> does <4160> the will <2307> of God <2316> is <1510> my <3450> brother <80> and <2532> sister <79> and <2532> mother <3384>.”
