He stayed there until Herod died. What the Lord had spoken through the prophet came true: “I have called my son out of Egypt.”

John wore clothes made from camel’s hair and had a leather belt around his waist. His diet consisted of locusts and wild honey.

Give us our daily bread today.

That’s the way God clothes the grass in the field. Today it’s alive, and tomorrow it’s thrown into an incinerator. So how much more will he clothe you people who have so little faith?

So they woke him up, saying, “Lord! Save us! We’re going to die!”

Jesus Warns Chorazin, Bethsaida, and Capernaum

Then Jesus denounced the cities where he had worked most of his miracles because they had not changed the way they thought and acted.

Jesus Predicts Peter’s Denial

Then Jesus said to them, “All of you will abandon me tonight. Scripture says, ‘I will strike the shepherd, and the sheep in the flock will be scattered.’
