35.    Miraculous catch of fishes; call of Simon, Andrew, James, and John,

 

[And Jesus, walking by the sea of Galilee, Matt 4:18 / Now as he walked by the sea of Galilee, Mark 1:16]

 

He Mark 1:16 saw Matt 4:18, Mark 1:16 two brethren, Matt 4:18 Simon Matt 4:18, Mark 1:16 called Peter, Matt 4:18 and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea: for they were fishers. Matt 4:18, Mark 1:16

 

[And he saith Matt 4:19 / And Jesus said Mark 1:17]

 

unto them, Matt 4:19, Mark 1:17

 

[Follow Matt 4:19 / Come ye after Mark 1:17]

 

me, and I will make you Matt 4:19, Mark 1:17 to become Mark 1:17 fishers of men. Matt 4:19, Mark 1:17

 

[And they straightway Matt 4:20 / And straightway they Mark 1:18]

 

[left Matt 4:20 / forsook Mark 1:18]

 

[their nets, and followed him. Matt 4:20, Mark 1:18]

 

[And going on from thence, Matt 4:21 / And when he had gone a little farther thence, Mark 1:19]

 

he saw Matt 4:21, Mark 1:19 other two brethren, Matt 4:21 James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, Matt 4:21, Mark 1:19 who also were Mark 1:19 in Matt 4:21, Mark 1:19

 

[a Matt 4:21 / the Mark 1:19]

 

ship Matt 4:21, Mark 1:19 with Zebedee their father, Matt 4:21 mending their nets; Matt 4:21, Mark 1:19 and Matt 4:21, Mark 1:20 straightway Mark 1:20 he called them. Matt 4:21, Mark 1:20 And they Matt 4:22, Mark 1:20 immediately Matt 4:22 left Matt 4:22, Mark 1:20 the ship and Matt 4:22 their father Matt 4:22, Mark 1:20 Zebedee in the ship with the hired servants, Mark 1:20 and Matt 4:22, Mark 1:20

 

[followed Matt 4:22 / went after Mark 1:20]

 

him Matt 4:22, Mark 1:20

 

Luke 5:1-11

1 And it came to pass, that, as the people pressed upon him to hear the word of God, he stood by the lake of Gennesaret,

2 And saw two ships standing by the lake: but the fishermen were gone out of them, and were washing their nets.

3 And he entered into one of the ships, which was Simon's, and prayed him that he would thrust out a little from the land. And he sat down, and taught the people out of the ship.

4 Now when he had left speaking, he said unto Simon, Launch out into the deep, and let down your nets for a draught.

5 And Simon answering said unto him, Master, we have toiled all the night, and have taken nothing: nevertheless at thy word I will let down the net.

6 And when they had this done, they inclosed a great multitude of fishes: and their net brake.

7 And they beckoned unto their partners, which were in the other ship, that they should come and help them. And they came, and filled both the ships, so that they began to sink.

8 When Simon Peter saw it, he fell down at Jesus' knees, saying, Depart from me; for I am a sinful man, O Lord.

9 For he was astonished, and all that were with him, at the draught of the fishes which they had taken:

10 And so was also James, and John, the sons of Zebedee, which were partners with Simon. And Jesus said unto Simon, Fear not; from henceforth thou shalt catch men.

11 And when they had brought their ships to land, they forsook all, and followed him.

 

36. Jesus casts out a devil,

 

[And there was in their synagogue a man Mark 1:23 / And in the synagogue there was a man, Luke 4:33]

 

[with an unclean spirit; Mark 1:23 / which had a spirit of an unclean devil, Luke 4:33]

 

and Mark 1:23, Luke 4:33 he Mark 1:23 cried out Mark 1:23, Luke 4:33 with a loud voice, Luke 4:33 Saying, Let us alone; what have we to do with thee, thou Jesus of Nazareth? art thou come to destroy us? I know thee who thou art, the Holy One of God. Mark 1:24, Luke 4:34 And Jesus rebuked him, saying, Hold thy peace, and come out of him. Mark 1:25, Luke 4:35 And when the Mark 1:26, Luke 4:35

 

[unclean spirit had Mark 1:26 / devil had Luke 4:35]

 

[torn Mark 1:26 / thrown Luke 4:35]

 

him Mark 1:26, Luke 4:35 in the midst, Luke 4:35 and cried with a loud voice, Mark 1:26 he came out of him, Mark 1:26, Luke 4:35 and hurt him not. Luke 4:35 And they were all amazed, Mark 1:27, Luke 4:36

 

[insomuch that they questioned Mark 1:27 / and spake Luke 4:36]

 

among themselves, saying, What Mark 1:27, Luke 4:36

 

[thing Mark 1:27 / a word Luke 4:36]

 

[is this? Mark 1:27 / is this! Luke 4:36]

 

what new doctrine is this? Mark 1:27 for with authority Mark 1:27, Luke 4:36 and power he Luke 4:36 commandeth Mark 1:27, Luke 4:36 he even Mark 1:27 the unclean spirits, and they Mark 1:27, Luke 4:36

 

[do obey him. Mark 1:27 / come out. Luke 4:36]

 

And Mark 1:28, Luke 4:37

 

[immediately his fame spread abroad throughout all the region Mark 1:28 / the fame of him went out into every place of the country Luke 4:37]

 

round about Mark 1:28, Luke 4:37 Galilee. Mark 1:28

 

37.    Cure of Simon’s wife mother, and other sick people,

 

And he arose Luke 4:38 And forthwith, when they were come Mark 1:29 out of the synagogue, Mark 1:29, Luke 4:38

 

[they entered into Mark 1:29 / and entered into Luke 4:38]

 

[the house of Simon and Andrew, Mark 1:29 / Simon's house. Luke 4:38]

 

with James and John. Mark 1:29 And when Jesus was come into Peter's house, Matt 8:14

 

[he saw his Matt 8:14 / But Simon's Mark 1:30 / And Simon's Luke 4:38]

 

wife's mother Matt 8:14, Mark 1:30, Luke 4:38

 

[laid, and sick of a fever. Matt 8:14 / lay sick of a fever, Mark 1:30 / was taken with a great fever; Luke 4:38]

 

[and anon they tell him of her. Mark 1:30 / and they besought him for her. Luke 4:38]

 

And he came Mark 1:31 And he stood over her, Luke 4:39

 

[And he touched her hand, Matt 8:15 / and took her by the hand, Mark 1:31]

 

and rebuked the fever; Luke 4:39 and lifted her up; Mark 1:31 and Matt 8:15, Mark 1:31, Luke 4:39 immediately Mark 1:31

 

[the fever Matt 8:15 / the fever Mark 1:31 / it Luke 4:39]

 

left her: and Matt 8:15, Mark 1:31, Luke 4:39 immediately Luke 4:39 she Matt 8:15, Mark 1:31, Luke 4:39 arose, and Matt 8:15, Luke 4:39 ministered unto them. Matt 8:15, Mark 1:31, Luke 4:39

 

[When the even was come, Matt 8:16 / And at even, when the sun did set, Mark 1:32 / Now when the sun was setting, Luke 4:40]

 

[they Matt 8:16 / they Mark 1:32 / all they Luke 4:40]

 

that had any sick with divers diseases Luke 4:40

 

[brought Matt 8:16 / brought Mark 1:32 / brought them Luke 4:40]

 

unto him Matt 8:16, Mark 1:32, Luke 4:40 all that were diseased, Mark 1:32 and he laid his hands on every one of them, Luke 4:40 and Mark 1:32

 

[many Matt 8:16 / them Mark 1:32]

 

that were possessed with devils: Matt 8:16, Mark 1:32 and he cast out the spirits with his word, Matt 8:16 and Matt 8:16, Mark 1:34, Luke 4:40 he Mark 1:34 healed Matt 8:16, Mark 1:34, Luke 4:40

 

[all that were sick: Matt 8:16 / many that were sick of divers diseases, Mark 1:34 / them. Luke 4:40]

 

[and cast out many devils; Mark 1:34 / And devils also came out of many, crying out, and saying, Thou art Christ the Son of God. Luke 4:41]

 

and Mark 1:34, Luke 4:41 he rebuking them Luke 4:41 suffered Mark 1:34, Luke 4:41

 

[not the devils Mark 1:34 / them not Luke 4:41]

 

to speak, Mark 1:34, Luke 4:41

 

[because they knew him. Mark 1:34 / for they knew that he was Christ. Luke 4:41]

 

That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the prophet, saying, Himself took our infirmities, and bare our sicknesses. Matt 8:17 And all the city was gathered together at the door. Mark 1:33

 

38.    Circuit with the disciples through Galilee,

 

And in the morning, rising up a great while before day, he went out, and departed into a solitary place, and there prayed. Mark 1:35

 

Luke 4:42-43

42 And when it was day, he departed and went into a desert place: and the people sought him, and came unto him, and stayed him, that he should not depart from them.

43 And he said unto them, I must preach the kingdom of God to other cities also: for therefore am I sent.

 

Mark 1:36-38

36 And Simon and they that were with him followed after him.

37 And when they had found him, they said unto him, All men seek for thee.

38 And he said unto them, Let us go into the next towns, that I may preach there also: for therefore came I forth.

 

And Jesus went about all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues, Matt 4:23 And he preached in Mark 1:39, Luke 4:44

 

[their synagogues throughout all Galilee, Mark 1:39/ the synagogues of Galilee. Luke 4:44]

 

and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, Matt 4:23

 

Matthew 4:23-24

23 and healing all manner of sickness and all manner of disease among the people.

24 And his fame went throughout all Syria: and they brought unto him all sick people that were taken with divers diseases and torments, and those which were possessed with devils, and those which were lunatick, and those that had the palsy;

 

[and he healed them. Matt 4:24 / and cast out devils. Mark 1:39]

 

And there followed him great multitudes of people from Galilee, and from Decapolis, and from Jerusalem, and from Judaea, and from beyond Jordan. Matt 4:25

 

39.    He heals a leper, and, shunning popularity, retires to the desert,

 

When he was come down from the mountain, great multitudes followed him. Matt 8:1 And it came to pass, when he was in a certain city, Luke 5:12

 

[And, behold, there came a leper Matt 8:2 / And there came a leper to him, Mark 1:40 / behold a man full of leprosy: Luke 5:12]

 

who seeing Jesus Luke 5:12

 

[and worshipped him, Matt 8:2 / beseeching him, and kneeling down to him, Mark 1:40 / fell on his face, Luke 5:12]

 

[saying, Matt 8:2 / and saying unto him, Mark 1:40 / and besought him, saying, Luke 5:12]

 

Lord, Matt 8:2, Luke 5:12 if thou wilt, thou canst make me clean. Matt 8:2, Mark 1:40, Luke 5:12

 

[And Jesus Matt 8:3 / And Jesus, Mark 1:41 / And he Luke 5:13]

 

moved with compassion, Mark 1:41 put forth his hand, and touched him, Matt 8:3, Mark 1:41, Luke 5:13

 

[saying, Matt 8:3 / and saith unto him, Mark 1:41 / saying, Luke 5:13]

 

I will; be thou clean. Matt 8:3, Mark 1:41, Luke 5:13 And Matt 8:3, Mark 1:42, Luke 5:13 as soon as he had spoken, Mark 1:42 immediately Matt 8:3, Mark 1:42, Luke 5:13

 

[his Matt 8:3 / the Mark 1:42 / the Luke 5:13]

 

leprosy Matt 8:3, Mark 1:42, Luke 5:13 departed from him, Mark 1:42, Luke 5:13 and he Mark 1:42 was cleansed. Matt 8:3, Mark 1:42

 

[And Jesus Matt 8:4 / And he Mark 1:43 / And he Luke 5:14]

 

[saith unto him, Matt 8:4 / 43 straitly charged him, and forthwith sent him away; 44 And saith unto him, Mark 1:43-44 / charged him to Luke 5:14]

 

See thou Matt 8:4, Mark 1:44

 

[tell no man; Matt 8:4 / say nothing to any man: Mark 1:44]

 

but go thy way, Matt 8:4, Mark 1:44 and Luke 5:14 shew thyself to the priest, and offer Matt 8:4, Mark 1:44, Luke 5:14 for thy cleansing Mark 1:44, Luke 5:14

 

[the gift that Matt 8:4 / those things which Mark 1:44]

 

Moses commanded, Matt 8:4, Mark 1:44 according as Moses commanded, Luke 5:14 for a testimony unto them. Matt 8:4, Mark 1:44, Luke 5:14 But Mark 1:45, Luke 5:15 he went out, and began to publish it much, and to blaze abroad the matter, Mark 1:45

 

[insomuch Mark 1:45 / so much the more went there a fame abroad of him: Luke 5:15]

 

that Jesus could no more openly enter into the city, but was without in desert places: Mark 1:45

 

[and Mark 1:45, Luke 5:15]

 

[they Mark 1:45 / great multitudes Luke 5:15]

 

came Mark 1:45, Luke 5:15 together Luke 5:15 to him from every quarter. Mark 1:45

 

Luke 5:15-16

15 to hear, and to be healed by him of their infirmities.

16 And he withdrew himself into the wilderness, and prayed.

 

40.    Returning to Capernaum, He heals a palsied man let down through the roof,

 

And again he entered into Capernaum after some days Mark 2:1 And it came to pass on a certain day, as he was teaching, that there were Pharisees and doctors of the law sitting by, which were come out of every town of Galilee, and Judaea, and Jerusalem: and the power of the Lord was present to heal them. Luke 5:17 and it was noised that he was in the house. Mark 2:1 And straightway many were gathered together, insomuch that there was no room to receive them, no, not so much as about the door: and he preached the word unto them. Mark 2:2 And they come unto him, Mark 2:3

 

[And, behold, they brought to him a man Matt 9:2 / bringing one Mark 2:3 / And, behold, men brought…a man Luke 5:18]

 

[sick of the palsy, Matt 9:2 / sick of the palsy, Mark 2:3 / which was taken with a palsy: Luke 5:18]

 

[lying on a bed: Matt 9:2 / in a bed Luke 5:18]

 

which was borne of four. Mark 2:3 and they sought means to bring him in, and to lay him before him. Luke 5:18 And when they could not Mark 2:4, Luke 5:19

 

[come nigh unto him Mark 2:4 / find by what way they might bring him in Luke 5:19]

 

[for the press, Mark 2:4 / because of the multitude, Luke 5:19]

 

they went upon the housetop, Luke 5:19 they uncovered the roof where he was: and when they had broken it up, they Mark 2:4

 

[let down Mark 2:4 / and let…down Luke 5:19]

 

[the bed wherein the sick of the palsy lay. Mark 2:4 / him…with his couch Luke 5:19]

 

through the tiling … into the midst before Jesus. Luke 5:19 and Matt 9:2, Luke 5:20 When Mark 2:5, Luke 5:20

 

[Jesus seeing their faith Matt 9:2 / Jesus saw their faith, Mark 2:5 / he saw their faith, Luke 5:20]

 

[said unto the sick of the palsy; Matt 9:2 / he said unto the sick of the palsy, Mark 2:5 / he said unto him, Luke 5:20]

 

[Son, Matt 9:2 / Son, Mark 2:5 / Man, Luke 5:20]

 

be of good cheer; Matt 9:2

 

[thy sins be Matt 9:2 / thy sins be Mark 2:5 / thy sins are Luke 5:20]

 

forgiven thee. Matt 9:2, Mark 2:5, Luke 5:20

 

[And, behold, Matt 9:3 / But there was Mark 2:6 / And Luke 5:21]

 

[certain of the scribes Matt 9:3 / certain of the scribes Mark 2:6 / the scribes Luke 5:21]

 

and the Pharisees Luke 5:21 sitting there, Matt 2:6

 

[said within themselves, Matt 9:3 / and reasoning in their hearts, Mark 2:6 / began to reason, saying, Luke 5:21]

 

This man blasphemeth. Matt 9:3 Why doth this man thus speak blasphemies? Mark 2:7 Who is this which speaketh blasphemies? Luke 5:21 who can forgive sins, but God Mark 2:7, Luke 5:21

 

[only? Mark 2:7 / alone? Luke 5:21]

 

[And Jesus knowing their thoughts Matt 9:4 / And immediately when Jesus perceived in his spirit Mark 2:8 / But when Jesus perceived their thoughts, Luke 5:22]

 

that they so reasoned within themselves, Mark 2:8

 

[said, Matt 9:4 / he said unto them, Mark 2:8 / he answering said unto them, Luke 5:22]

 

[Wherefore think ye evil Matt 9:4 / Why reason ye these things Mark 2:8 / What reason ye Luke 5:22]

 

in your hearts? Matt 9:4, Mark 2:8, Luke 5:22

 

For Matt 9:5 whether is Matt 9:5, Mark 2:9, Luke 5:23 it Mark 2:9 easier, to say, Matt 9:5, Mark 2:9, Luke 5:23 to the sick of the palsy, Mark 2:9 Thy sins be forgiven thee; or to say, Matt 9:5, Mark 2:9, Luke 5:23

 

[Arise, Matt 9:5/ Arise, Mark 2:9 / Rise up Luke 5:23]

 

and take up thy bed, Mark 2:9 and walk? Matt 9:5, Mark 2:9, Luke 5:23 But that ye may know that the Son of man hath power Matt 9:6, Mark 2:10, Luke 5:24

 

[on Matt 9:6/ on Mark 2:10 / upon Luke 5:24]

 

earth to forgive sins, Matt 9:6, Mark 2:10, Luke 5:24

 

[(then saith he to Matt 9:6/ (he saith to Mark 2:10 / (he said unto Luke 5:24]

 

the sick of the palsy,) Matt 9:6, Mark 2:10, Luke 5:24 I say unto thee, Mark 2:11, Luke 5:24 Arise, Matt 9:6, Mark 2:11, Luke 5:24 and Mark 2:11, Luke 5:24 take up thy Matt 9:6, Mark 2:11, Luke 5:24

 

[bed, Matt 9:6 / bed, Mark 2:11 / couch, Luke 5:24]

 

and go Matt 9:6, Mark 2:11, Luke 5:24 thy way Mark 2:11

 

[unto Matt 9:6 / into Mark 2:11 / into Luke 5:24]

 

thine house. Matt 9:6, Mark 2:11, Luke
