1 I AM is Our Salvation (Yeshua), being full of the Holy Spirit, returned from The Descender (Jordan), and was led by the Spirit into the wilderness,
2 To be tempted by the devil. He was there
40 days, and in those days, He ate nothing. When they were ended, He was hungry.
3 Then the devil said to Him, “If you are
the Son of God, command this stone to become bread.”
4 But I AM is Our Salvation (Yeshua)
answered him, saying, “It is written, that man will not live by bread alone,
but by every word of God.”
5 Then the devil took Him up to a high
mountain, and showed Him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time.
6 And the devil said to Him, “All this power
I will give to You, and the glory of them have been delivered to me; and to
whoever I will, I can give it.
7 Therefore, if You will worship me, it will
all be Yours.”
8 But I AM is Our Salvation (Yeshua)
answered him, “Get behind Me, Satan: for it is written, 'You will worship the
Lord your God, and Him only will you serve.”
9 Then he brought Him to Rain of Peace
(Jerusalem), and set Him on a pinnacle of the temple, and said to Him, If You are
the Son of God, cast yourself down from here:
10 For it is written, He will give His angels
charge over You, to keep You:
11 And in their hands they will bear You up,
lest at any time You dash your foot against a stone.”
12 I AM is Our Salvation (Yeshua) countered
him, “It is said, you will not tempt the Lord your God.”
13 When the devil had ended all the
temptation, he departed from Him for a season.
14 So I AM is Our Salvation (Yeshua) returned
in the power of the Spirit to Circuit-District (Galilee): and there His fame went
out through all the region round about
15 As He taught in their synagogues, being
glorified by all.
16 Then He came to Branch (Nazareth), where He
had been brought up. As was His custom, He went into the synagogue on the Sabbath
day and stood up to read.
17 The book of the prophet I AM’s Help
(Isaiah) was delivered to Him. When He had opened the book, He found the place
where it was written,
18 “The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because
he has anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he has sent me to heal the
brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight
to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised,
19 To preach the acceptable year of the Lord.”
20 And he closed the book, and he gave it
again to the minister, and sat down. And the eyes of all those who were in the
synagogue were fastened on Him.
21 He said to them, “This day is this
scripture fulfilled in your ears.”
22 All spoke well of Him and wondered at the
gracious words which proceeded out of His mouth. They said, “Is not this I AM
Will Add's (Joseph’s) son?”
23 But He said to them, “You will surely say to
Me this proverb, 'Physician, heal Yourself: all that we have heard You did in Village
of Comfort (Capernaum), do also here in Your country.”
24 And He said, “Truly I say to you, no
prophet is accepted in his own country.
25 But I tell you a truth, many widows were
in God Prevails (Israel) in the days of My God is I Am (Elijah), when the
heaven was shut up three years and six months, when great famine was throughout
all the land.
26 My God is I Am (Elijah) was sent to none
of them, but to Smelting (Sarepta), a city of Hunter/Fisher (Sidon), to a woman
who was a widow.
27 And many lepers were in God Prevails
(Israel) in the time of God is Salvation (Elisha) the prophet; and none of them
was cleansed, save Pleasantness (Naaman) the Exalted (Syrian).
28 Everyone in the synagogue, when they heard
these things, was filled with wrath.
29 They rose up, thrust Him out of the city,
and led Him to the brow of the hill whereon their city was built, that they
might cast Him down headlong.
30 But He passed through the midst of them,
went His way,
31 And came down to Village of Comfort
(Capernaum), a city of Circuit-District (Galilee), and taught them on the Sabbath
days.
32 They were astonished at His doctrine: for His
word was with power.
33 In the synagogue, there was a man who had
a spirit of an unclean devil, and cried out with a loud voice,
34 Saying, “Let us alone; what have we to do
with You, You, I AM is Our Salvation (Yeshua) of Branch (Nazareth)? Have You
come to destroy us? I know who You are; the Holy One of God.”
35 But I AM is Our Salvation (Yeshua) rebuked
him, saying, “Hold your peace, and come out of him.” And when the devil had
thrown him in the midst, he came out of him and did not hurt him.
36 They were all amazed, and spoke among
themselves, saying, “What a word is this! With authority and power, he commands
the unclean spirits, and they come out!”
37 And His fame went out into every place of
the surrounding country.
38 Then He arose out of the synagogue and
entered Heard's (Simon's) house. Heard’s (Simon's) wife's mother was taken with
a great fever, and they sought Him for her.
39 He went and stood over her and rebuked the
fever; and it left her: and immediately she arose and ministered to them.
40 Now when the sun was setting, all those
who had any sick with every kind of disease brought them to Him; and He laid
his hands on every one of them and healed them.
41 And devils also came out of many, crying
out, “You are Anointed (Messiah, Christ) the Son of God!” He rebuked them and
would not permit them to speak, for they knew that He was Anointed (Messiah,
Christ).
42 When it was day, He departed and went into
a desert place: and the people sought Him, came to Him, and detained Him, that He
should not depart from them.
43 But He said to them, “I must preach the Kingdom
of God to other cities also: for this is why I was sent.”
44 So He went and preached in the synagogues
of Circuit-District (Galilee).
