The Preaching of John the Baptist
(Matthew 3.1-12; Luke 3.1-9,15-17; John 1.19-28)
1The beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ, the Son of God.
2 #
Mal 3.1. As it is written in the prophets,
Behold, I send my messenger before thy face,
which shall prepare thy way before thee.
3 #
Isa 40.3. The voice of one crying in the wilderness,
Prepare ye the way of the Lord,
make his paths straight.
4John did baptize in the wilderness, and preach the baptism of repentance for the remission of sins. 5And there went out unto him all the land of Judea, and they of Jerusalem, and were all baptized of him in the river of Jordan, confessing their sins. 6#2 Kgs 1.8. And John was clothed with camel's hair, and with a girdle of a skin about his loins; and he did eat locusts and wild honey; 7and preached, saying, There cometh one mightier than I after me, the latchet of whose shoes I am not worthy to stoop down and unloose. 8I indeed have baptized you with water: but he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost.
The Baptism of Jesus
(Matthew 3.13-17; Luke 3.21,22)
9And it came to pass in those days, that Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was baptized of John in Jordan. 10And straightway coming up out of the water, he saw the heavens opened, and the Spirit like a dove descending upon him: 11#Isa 42.1; Matt 12.18; 17.5; Mark 9.7; Luke 9.35. and there came a voice from heaven, saying, Thou art my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.
The Temptation of Jesus
(Matthew 4.1-11; Luke 4.1-13)
12And immediately the Spirit driveth him into the wilderness. 13And he was there in the wilderness forty days tempted of Satan; and was with the wild beasts; and the angels ministered unto him.
Jesus Begins His Ministry
(Matthew 4.12-17; Luke 4.14,15)
14Now after that John was put in prison, Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the gospel of the kingdom of God, 15#Dan 2.44; Matt 3.2. and saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel.
Jesus Calls Four Fishermen
(Matthew 4.18-22; Luke 5.1-11)
16Now as he walked by the sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and Andrew his brother casting a net into the sea: for they were fishers. 17And Jesus said unto them, Come ye after me, and I will make you to become fishers of men. 18And straightway they forsook their nets, and followed him. 19And when he had gone a little further thence, he saw James the son of Zeb´edee, and John his brother, who also were in the ship mending their nets. 20And straightway he called them: and they left their father Zeb´edee in the ship with the hired servants, and went after him.
A Man with an Unclean Spirit
(Luke 4.31-37)
21And they went into Caper´na-um; and straightway on the sabbath day he entered into the synagogue, and taught. 22#Matt 7.28,29. And they were astonished at his doctrine: for he taught them as one that had authority, and not as the scribes. 23And there was in their synagogue a man with an unclean spirit; and he cried out, 24saying, 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. 25And Jesus rebuked him, saying, Hold thy peace, and come out of him. 26And when the unclean spirit had torn him, and cried with a loud voice, he came out of him. 27And they were all amazed, insomuch that they questioned among themselves, saying, What thing is this? what new doctrine is this? for with authority commandeth he even the unclean spirits, and they do obey him. 28And immediately his fame spread abroad throughout all the region round about Galilee.
Jesus Heals Simon's Mother-in-Law
(Matthew 8.14,15; Luke 4.38,39)
29And forthwith, when they were come out of the synagogue, they entered into the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John. 30But Simon's wife's mother lay sick of a fever; and anon they tell him of her. 31And he came and took her by the hand, and lifted her up; and immediately the fever left her, and she ministered unto them.
Jesus Heals Many at Evening
(Matthew 8.16,17; Luke 4.40,41)
32And at even, when the sun did set, they brought unto him all that were diseased, and them that were possessed with devils. 33And all the city was gathered together at the door. 34And he healed many that were sick of divers diseases, and cast out many devils; and suffered not the devils to speak, because they knew him.
Jesus Departs on a Preaching Tour
(Luke 4.42-44)
35And in the morning, rising up a great while before day, he went out, and departed into a solitary place, and there prayed. 36And Simon and they that were with him followed after him. 37And when they had found him, they said unto him, All men seek for thee. 38And he said unto them, Let us go into the next towns, that I may preach there also: for therefore came I forth. 39#Matt 4.23; 9.35. And he preached in their synagogues throughout all Galilee, and cast out devils.
Jesus Cleanses a Leper
(Matthew 8.1-4; Luke 5.12-16)
40And there came a leper to him, beseeching him, and kneeling down to him, and saying unto him, If thou wilt, thou canst make me clean. 41And Jesus, moved with compassion, put forth his hand, and touched him, and saith unto him, I will; be thou clean. 42And as soon as he had spoken, immediately the leprosy departed from him, and he was cleansed. 43And he straitly charged him, and forthwith sent him away; 44#Lev 14.1-32. and saith unto him, See thou say nothing to any man: but go thy way, show thyself to the priest, and offer for thy cleansing those things which Moses commanded, for a testimony unto them. 45But he went out, and began to publish it much, and to blaze abroad the matter, insomuch that Jesus could no more openly enter into the city, but was without in desert places: and they came to him from every quarter.

Markos 1
1
1The Beginning of the Besuras HaGeulah (the Good News of Redemption) of Yehoshua, Rebbe Melech HaMoshiach [the] Ben HaElohim.
2Just as it has been written in Yeshayah HaNavi, HINNENI SHOLEIACH MALACHI (Behold, I send my messenger) before your face, UPINNAH DERECH LEFANAI (and he will prepare the way before me),#1:2 Ex 23:20; Mal 3:1 he will prepare your way.
3KOL KOREY BAMIDBAR#1:3 TARGUM HASHIVIM Isa 40:3 (A voice of one shouting in the wilderness): Prepare the Derech Hashem (the way of the L-rd). Make his paths yashar (straight)!
4Yochanan came with a mikveh mayim in the midbar, preaching a tevilah of teshuva for the selichat avon.
5And all Yehudah and all Yerushalayim were going out to him, and they were submitted to a tevilah using the Yarden River as a mikveh mayim, making vidduy#1:5 to Hashem of their averos (sins).
6And Yochanan had camel hair clothing and a leather belt around his waist, and his food was arbe and devash.#1:6 2Kgs 1:8; Lv 11:22
7And he was preaching, [crying out as a maggid],#1:7 for the Moshiach saying, Hu Habah (He who Comes)#1:7 i.e. Moshiach after me has more chozek (strength) than me. I am not worthy to stoop down and remove his sandals.
8I give you a tevilah in a mikveh mayim, but he#1:8 Moshiach will give you a tevilah in the Ruach Hakodesh.
9And it was during that period that Yehoshua from Natzeret of the Galil came and submitted to Yochananʼs tevilah in the mikveh mayim of the Yarden.
10And ofen ort Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach came up out of the mikveh mayim, and he saw Shomayim being torn open, the Ruach Hakodesh of Hashem descending like a yonah on him.
11And there was a bat kol out of Shomayim, ATAH BNI AHUVI ASHER BCHA CHAFATSTI (You are my Son, the beloved, with whom I am well pleased).
12Then the Ruach Hakodesh ofen ort thrusts him out into the midbar.
13And Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach was in the midbar arba'im yom varbaim lailah, undergoing nisyonos by HaSatan; and he was with the chayyat hassadeh#1:13 Job 5:23 (wild beasts), and the malachim were the meshartei Hashem ministering to Moshiach.
14Now after Yochanan was arrested, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach came to the Galil, darshenen (preaching) the Besuras HaGeulah of Hashem,
15And saying, The appointed time has been fulfilled and the Malchut Hashem has come near. Make teshuva, and have emunah in the Besuras HaGeulah.
16And passing along beside Sea of Galilee, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach saw Shim'on and Andrew, the brother of Shim'on, casting a reshet into the sea, for they were daiyagim (fishermen).
17And he said to them, Come, follow me,#1:17 as my talmidim and I will make you to become daiyagei adam.
18And ofen ort, leaving their nets, they followed Moshiach.
19And going on a little, he saw Ya'akov Ben Zavdai and Yochanan his brother, who were also in the sirah (boat) repairing the nets.
20And ofen ort he summoned them; and, leaving Zavdai their father in the sirah with the sachirim (hired workers), they went away to follow Moshiach.
21And they enter into K'far-Nachum, and ofen ort on Shabbos, entering into the shul, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach exercised the ministry of moreh (teacher).
22And they were astounded at Moshiachʼs torah (teaching), for he was teaching them as one having samchut, and not as the Sofrim.
23And, ofen ort, there was in their shul a man with a ruach hatameh, and he shouted,
24Saying, Yehoshua of Natzeret, mah lanu vlach? (What to us and to you?) Have you come to bring us churban (destruction)? I have daas#1:24 of the raz, secret, mystery of who you are, HaKadosh of Hashem (the Holy One of G-d).
25But he rebuked the shed, saying, Shekit! Gey zich! And come out of him.
26And, the ruach hatumah, throwing him into convulsions, let out a shrai and came out of him.
27And all were astounded so that they began to discuss with each other, saying, What is this? Torah Chadasha with samchut? He gives orders to the shedim and they obey him?
28And the besuroh (news) of Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach ofen ort (immediately) went forth everywhere into the surrounding region of the Galil.
29And ofen ort (immediately), coming out of shul, they went into the bais (house) of Shim'on and Andrew with Ya'akov and Yochanan.
30And the chamot (shviger, mother-in-law) of Shim'on was bedridden and fever-stricken, and ofen ort (immediately) they tell Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach about her.
31And approaching, holding her hand, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach lifted her up, and the kaddachat#1:31 Dt 28:22 (fever) left her, and she then began functioning as their mesharetet (servant, keli kodesh, lady minister), waiting on them.
32When erev (evening) came, with the setting of the shemesh (sun), they brought to Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach all the cholim (sick persons) and all those possessed by shedim (demons).
33And the whole shtetl gathered together at the delet (door).
34And Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach administered refuah (healing) to many cholim (sick persons) suffering from various machlot (illnessess), and he cast out many shedim (demons). And he did not permit the shedim to give utterance, for the shedim knew the raz (mystery, secret) of his identity, that he was the Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach.
35And very early, while it was still dark, having got up, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach went out and away to a desolate place, and was davening shacharis there.
36And Shim'on and those with him searched for Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach.
37And they found Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach and they say to him, Everyone is seeking you.#1:37 Song 1:4; Hag 2:7
38And Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach says to them, Let us go elsewhere into the neighboring shtetlach, so that also there I may preach. For it was for this [purpose, tachlis] I came.#1:38 Isa 61:1
39And he came preaching in their shuls (synagogues) and casting out shedim in [the] whole [region of] the Galil.
40And an ish metzorah (leper) comes to Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach begging him and kneeling down and saying, If you are willing, you are able to make me tahor (clean).
41And being filled with rachmei Shomayim [and] stretching out his hand, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach touched [the man] and says to him, I am willing. Be made tahor.
42And ofen ort (immediately) the ish metzorah (leper) went away from Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach and he was made tahor.
43And having sternly warned him, ofen ort (immediately) Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach sent him away.
44And Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach says to him, See [that] you say nothing to anyone, but rather go show yourself to the kohen and offer [the korban] for the tohorah (purification) of you which Moshe (Rabbeinu) gave mitzvah, for an edut (testimony) to them.#1:44 Lv 13:49; 14:1-32
45But the one having gone out began to preach many things and to spread the dvar, so that no longer was Rebbe Melech HaMoshiach able to openly enter into [the] shtetl, but he was outside in desolate places. And they were coming to Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach from every direction.
