1:2 As it has been written in the prophets, 'Behold, I send my messenger before your face, who will be preparing your way. ' {Mal 3:1}

1:3 The voice of one crying in the wilderness, prepare* the way of the Lord; make** his paths straight. ' {Isa 40:3}

1:4 John came*, immersing* in the wilderness and preaching the immersion* of repentance into the forgiveness of sins.

1:5 And all the region of Judea and all those from Jerusalem were traveling out to him, and all were being immersed* by him in the river Jordan, confessing their sins.

1:6 Now John was eating locusts and wild honey, having clothed himself with camel's hair, and a leather belt around his loin.


1:7 And he preached, saying, There is one coming after me, the mightier one than I. I am not sufficient when I stoop down to loose the strap of his shoes.

1:8 I indeed immersed* you* in water, but he will immerse* you* in the Holy Spirit. {Mar 1:9-11 & Mat 3:13-17 Luk 3:21-22 Jordan east of Jericho, Spring 27 AD.}

1:9 And it happened in those days, that Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was immersed* by John into the Jordan.

1:10 And immediately coming-up from the water, he saw the heavens being split-apart, and the Spirit like a dove descending upon him.

1:11 And a voice came* out of the heavens, You are my beloved Son, in whom I am delighted.

{Mar 1:12-13 & Mat 4:1-11 & Luk 4:1-13.}

1:12 And immediately the Spirit cast him out into the wilderness.

1:13 And he was there in the wilderness for forty days, being tempted by the Adversary, and he was with the beasts, and the messengers were serving him.

{Joh 1:19-34 Bethany beyond Jordan, Feb. 27 AD.} {Joh 1:35-51 Bethany beyond Jordan, Spring 27 AD.} {Joh 2:1-11 Cana in Galilee.} {Joh 2:12 Capernaum.} {Joh 2:13-25 Jerusalem April 9, 27 AD.} {Joh 3:1-21.} {Joh 3:22-36 Judea and Aenon.} {Mar 1:14a & Mat 4:12 & Luk 3:19-20 & Joh 4:1-4 Judea to Galilee.}

{Joh 4:5-43 Jacob's Well and at Sychar.} {Luk 4:14a & Joh 4:44-45 Arrival in Galilee.}

1:14 Now after John was given up,

{Mar 1:14b-15 & Mat 4:17 & Luk 4:14b-15.} Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the good-news of the kingdom of God,

1:15 and saying, The time has been fulfilled and the kingdom of God has drawn near. Repent* and believe* in the good-news. {Joh 4:46-54 Cana.} {Luk 4:16-31.} {Mat 4:13-16 Capernaum.} {Mar 1:16-20 & Mat 4:18-22 & Luk 5:1-11 Sea of Galilee near Capernaum.}

1:16 Now walking beside the sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and Andrew his brother, who are Simon's sons, casting a net in the sea; for* they were fishermen.

1:17 And Jesus said to them, Come-here* after me and I will make* you* to become fishermen of men.

1:18 And immediately they left their nets and followed him.

1:19 And having advanced a few feet from there, he saw James and John his brother, the son s of Zebedee, and they were in the ship mending the nets.

1:20 And immediately he called them. And they left their father Zebedee with the hired-servants in the ship and went after him.

{Mar 1:21-28 & Luk 4:31-37 Capernaum.}

1:21 And they travel into Capernaum, and immediately on the Sabbath he entered into the synagogue and was teaching.

1:22 And they were being astounded at his teaching; for* he was teaching them like one having authority and not like the scribes.


1:23 And a man was in their synagogue in him was an unclean spirit, and he cried out,

1:24 saying, Ah! What is it to us and to you, Jesus the Nazarene? Did you come to destroy us? I know you, I know who you are, the Holy One of God.

1:25 And Jesus rebuked it, saying, Hush and come out of him.


1:26 And the unclean spirit came out of him, having convulsed him and having cried out with a loud voice.

1:27 And they were all amazed, so-that they began to debate together with themselves, saying, What is this thing? What new teaching is this that he commands even the unclean spirits with authority, and they are obeying* him?

1:28 Now the report of him went out immediately, into the whole region around Galilee.

{Mar 1:29-34 & Mat 8:14-17 & Luk 4:38-41 Capernaum.}

1:29 And immediately, he came out of the synagogue, and they came into the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John.

1:30 Now Simon's mother-in-law was laying, fevered, and immediately they speak to him concerning her.

1:31 And he came near and took-hold of her by the hand and lifted her up, and immediately the fever left her and she was serving them.


1:32 Now after it became evening, when the sun set, they were bringing to him all who were ill and those who were demon-possessed.

1:33 And the whole city was gathered together next to the door.

1:34 And he healed many who were ill with various diseases, and cast out many demons, and he was not allowing the demons to speak, because they knew him. {Mar 1:35-39 & Mat 4:23-25 & Luk 4:42-44 Preaching through Galilee.}

1:35 And exceedingly early, having risen* up in the morning, while yet at night, he came out and went away into a desolate place, and he was praying there.

1:36 And Simon, and those who were with him, pursued him;

1:37 and having found him, they say to him, All are seeking you.


1:38 And he says to them, We should be proceeding into the next towns, in order that I might also preach there; for* I have come *for this purpose.

1:39 And he was preaching and casting out demons in their synagogues in the whole of Galilee. {Mar 1:40-45 & Mat 8:2-4 & Luk 5:12-16.}

1:40 And a leper comes to him, pleading to him, and kneeling down to him and saying to him, If you are willing, you are able to cleanse me.


1:41 Now Jesus, having compassion on him, stretched out his hand, touched him and says to him, I am willing. Be cleansed.

1:42 And having said that, the leprosy immediately went away from him and he was cleansed.

1:43 And he scolded him and immediately sent him out,

1:44 and says to him, See that you say nothing to anyone, but go; show yourself to the priest, and offer the things which Moses commanded concerning your cleansing *for a testimony to them. {Lev 13:49, 14:2-4}

1:45 But he went out and began to preach it much, and to broadcast the word, so-that he {i.e. Jesus} was no longer able to openly enter into the city, but was outside in desolate places, and they were coming to him from everywhere.
{Mar 2:1-12 & Mat 9:2-8 & Luk 5:17-26.}
