Mark 3

Mt 12.9-14; Lk 6.6-11. Again he entered the synagogue, and a man was there who had a withered hand. 2#Lk 11.54. And they watched him, to see whether he would heal him on the sabbath, so that they might accuse him. 3And he said to the man who had the withered hand, “Come here.” 4And he said to them, “Is it lawful on the sabbath to do good or to do harm, to save life or to kill?” But they were silent. 5And he looked around at them with anger, grieved at their hardness of heart, and said to the man, “Stretch out your hand.” He stretched it out, and his hand was restored. 6#Mk 12.13. The Pharisees went out, and immediately held counsel with the Herodi-ans against him, how to destroy him.

Mt 4.24-25; 12.15-16; Lk 6.17-19. Jesus withdrew with his disciples to the sea, and a great multitude from Galilee followed; also from Judea 8#Mt 11.21. and Jerusalem and Idumea and from beyond the Jordan and from about Tyre and Sidon a great multitude, hearing all that he did, came to him. 9And he told his disciples to have a boat ready for him because of the crowd, lest they should crush him; 10#Mk 5.29,34; 6.56. for he had healed many, so that all who had diseases pressed upon him to touch him. 11And whenever the unclean spirits beheld him, they fell down before him and cried out, “You are the Son of God.” 12#Mk 1.45. And he strictly ordered them not to make him known.
13 #
Mt 5.1; Lk 6.12. And he went up on the mountain, and called to him those whom he desired; and they came to him. 14#Mt 10.1. And he appointed twelve,#3.14 Other ancient authorities add whom also he named apostles to be with him, and to be sent out to preach 15and have authority to cast out demons: 16#Mt 10.2-4; Lk 6.14-16; Acts 1.13. Simon#3.16 Other authorities read demons. 16 So he appointed the twelve: Simon whom he surnamed Peter; 17James the son of Zebedee and John the brother of James, whom he surnamed Bo-anerges, that is, sons of thunder; 18Andrew, and Philip, and Bartholomew, and Matthew, and Thomas, and James the son of Alphaeus, and Thaddaeus, and Simon the Cananaean, 19#Mk 2.1; 7.17. and Judas Iscariot, who betrayed him.
Then he went home; 20#Mk 6.31. and the crowd came together again, so that they could not even eat. 21#Mk 3.31-35; Jn 10.20. And when his family heard it, they went out to seize him, for people were saying, “He is beside himself.” 22#Mt 12.24-29; Lk 11.15-22. #Mt 9.34; 10.25. And the scribes who came down from Jerusalem said, “He is possessed by Be-elzebul, and by the prince of demons he casts out the demons.” 23And he called them to him, and said to them in parables, “How can Satan cast out Satan? 24If a kingdom is divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand. 25And if a house is divided against itself, that house will not be able to stand. 26And if Satan has risen up against himself and is divided, he cannot stand, but is coming to an end. 27#Is 49.24-25. But no one can enter a strong man's house and plunder his goods, unless he first binds the strong man; then indeed he may plunder his house.
28 #
Mt 12.31-32; Lk 12.10. “Truly, I say to you, all sins will be forgiven the sons of men, and whatever blasphemies they utter; 29but whoever blasphemes against the Holy Spirit never has forgiveness, but is guilty of an eternal sin” — 30for they had said, “He has an unclean spirit.”
31 #
Mt 12.46-50; Lk 8.19-21. And his mother and his brothers came; and standing outside they sent to him and called him. 32And a crowd was sitting about him; and they said to him, “Your mother and your brothers#3.32 Other early authorities add and your sisters are outside, asking for you.” 33And he replied, “Who are my mother and my brothers?” 34And looking around on those who sat about him, he said, “Here are my mother and my brothers! 35Whoever does the will of God is my brother, and sister, and mother.”

Markos 3
3
1And Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach entered again into the shul. And there was there a man having a withered hand.
2And they were watching Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach [to see] if on Shabbos he will heal him, in order that they might accuse him.
3And he says to the man, the one with the withered hand, Stand up here in the center.
4And Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach says to them, Is it mutar (permissible) on Shabbos to do tov or rah, to restore nefesh or to destroy [it]? But they were silent.
5And having looked [at] them with ka'as and having agmat nefesh (grief) at the stubborn hardness of their levavot, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach says to the man, Stretch out your hand. And the man stretched it out, and his hand was restored.
6And ofen ort (immediately) the Perushim went out and held consultation with the party of Herod against him, as to how they might destroy him.
7And Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach with his talmidim went away to the lake, and a great multitude from the Galil and also from Yehudah followed Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach.
8And from Yerushalayim and from Idumea and from the other side of the Yarden and from around Tzor-Tzidon area, a great multitude [followed], hearing everything that he was doing, and they came to Rebbe Melech HaMoshiach.
9And he said to his talmidim that a sirah (boat) should stand ready for him, lest the multitude might crush him.
10For he had brought refuah to many, with the result that as many as had afflictions pressed in on him in order to touch him.
11And the ruchot hatemeiot (unclean spirits), whenever they saw Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach, were falling before him and were crying out, saying, You are the Ben HaElohim!
12And he sternly rebuked them, lest they should make him known.
13And Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach goes up to the mountain and summons those whom he wanted, and they came to him.
14And Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach appointed and gave smichah to Shneym Asar (Twelve), whom also he designated Shlichim, that they might be with him,#3:14 be mishtatef in Moshiachʼs chavurah and that he might send them out as his Shlichim to preach,
15and to have samchut (authority) to cast out shedim.
16And Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach appointed the Shneym Asar: Shim'on, to whom he gave the name Kefa,
17And Ya'akov Ben Zavdai and Yochanan, Ya'akovʼs brother. He gave to them the name Bnei Regesh, (Sons of Thunder).
18And Andrew and Philippos and Bar-Talmai, and Mattityahu, and T'oma, and Ya'akov Ben-Chalfai, and Taddai, and Shim'on the Zealot,
19And Yehudah from K'riot, the one who betrayed Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach.
20And Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach goes to his home shtetl; and again the multitude assembles, with the result that they were not able to have okhel (food).
21And when his own mishpochah heard of this, they went out to constrain him. For they were saying, He is meshuga.
22And the Sofrim (Scribes), the ones coming down from Yerushalayim, were saying, He is possessed by Baal-zibbul and by the Sar HaShedim he casts out shedim.
23But having called them, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach was speaking to them in meshalim: How can HaSatan cast out HaSatan?
24And if a malchut is divided against itself, it is not possible for that malchut to stand.
25And if a bais is divided against itself, it will not be possible for that bais to stand.
26And if HaSatan has risen up against himself and is divided, it is not possible for him to stand, but his end has arrived.
27But no one is able, having entered into the house of the Gibbor to plunder his possessions, unless first, he binds HaGibbor, and then he will plunder the Bayit HaGibbor.
28Omein, I say to you that for everything — for the averos (sins) and the Chillul Hashem (Desecration of the Name), whatever blasphemies they may utter — the Bnei Adam will be granted selicha.
29But whoever commits Chillul Hashem gidduf against the Ruach Hakodesh, can never have selicha, but is guilty of a Chet Olam.
30For they were saying, He has a ruach hatumah (an unclean spirit).
31And the Em (Mother) of Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach and his achim come and stand outside and they sent word to him.
32And a multitude was sitting around him, and they are saying to him, Hinei! Your Em (Mother)! And your achim (brothers)! And your achayot (sisters) are outside looking for you.
33And in reply to them, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach says, Who is immi? And my achim (brothers)?
34And having looked around at the ones sitting around him, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach says, Hinei! Immi and my achim!
35For whoever does the ratzon Hashem, this one is my brother and my sister and mother.
