And behold, thou shalt be dumb and not able to speak until the day that these things shall be performed, because thou believest not my words which shall be fulfilled in their season.”

And blessed is she that believed; for there shall be a fulfillment of those things which were told her from the Lord.”

And when the days of her purification according to the Law of Moses were accomplished, they brought Him to Jerusalem to present Him to the Lord

(as it is written in the law of the Lord: “Every male that openeth the womb shall be called holy to the Lord”),

and to offer a sacrifice according to that which is said in the law of the Lord: “A pair of turtledoves or two young pigeons.”

And he came by the Spirit into the temple; and when the parents brought in the child Jesus to do for Him after the custom of the law,

And when they had performed all things according to the law of the Lord, they returned into Galilee to their own city, Nazareth.

And when they had fulfilled the days, as they returned, the child Jesus tarried behind in Jerusalem; and Joseph and His mother knew not of it.

And He began to say unto them, “This day is this Scripture fulfilled in your ears.”

And it came to pass on a certain day, as He was teaching, that there were Pharisees and doctors of the law sitting by, who had come from every town of Galilee and Judea and Jerusalem. And the power of the Lord was present to heal them.

And certain of the Pharisees said unto them, “Why do ye that which is not lawful to do on the Sabbath days?”

how he went into the house of God, and took and ate the showbread and gave also to them that were with him, which it is not lawful to eat except for the priests alone?”

Then said Jesus unto them, “I will ask you one thing: Is it lawful on the Sabbath days to do good, or to do evil? To save life, or to destroy it?”

But the Pharisees and lawyers rejected the counsel of God against themselves, being not baptized by him.

And behold, a certain lawyer stood up and tested Him, saying, “Master, what shall I do to inherit eternal life?”

He said unto him, “What is written in the law? How readest thou?”

Then answered one of the lawyers and said unto Him, “Master, thus saying, thou reproachest us also.”

And He said, “Woe unto you also, ye lawyers! For ye laden men with burdens grievous to be borne, and ye yourselves touch not the burdens with one of your fingers.

Woe unto you, lawyers! For ye have taken away the key of knowledge. Ye entered not in yourselves, and them that were entering in, ye hindered.”

The father shall be divided against the son and the son against the father; the mother against the daughter and the daughter against the mother; the mother-in-law against her daughter-in-law and the daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law.”

And Jesus answering, spoke unto the lawyers and Pharisees, saying, “Is it lawful to heal on the Sabbath day?”

“The Law and the Prophets were until John. Since that time the Kingdom of God is preached, and every man presseth into it.

And it is easier for heaven and earth to pass away, than one tittle of the law to fail.

Is it lawful for us to give tribute unto Caesar or no?”

For these are the days of vengeance, that all things which are written may be fulfilled.
