[The]
beginning
of the
good-news
of
Jesus Christ:
2
According as [kaqwj]
it is written in the
Isaiah, the
prophet:
['who wrote'] Look! I am sending forth my
angel/messenger
[Gabriel,
literal in Isaiah, comparative here]
before [pro]
your
face
[Michael's face in heaven, and on earth?? metaphorical in
Isaiah? comparative
here], who will prepare your
way;
3
A Voice
of [one] crying-out in the desolate [place],
'Prepare the
way
of [the]
Lord
[FDS1 was the way], make his
roads
[tribouj]
straight
[the other
true churches],'
4
John, the [one] baptizing
came to be in the desolate [place], preaching
baptism
of (repentance
into
forgiveness
of
sins).
5
Consequently all the
Judean [ones] [Ioudaia]
[could be the noun Judea or the adjective
Judean. We take it as the adjective]
Country
and all the
Jerusalemites
were going out to him, and they were baptized by him in the
Jordan River,
openly confessing their
sins.
6
Now
John
was clothed
hairs
of
camel
and with a leather
girdle
around his
loin, and was eating
locusts
and wild
honey.
7
And he would preach, saying: After me someone stronger than I am is coming; I am
not fit to stoop and untie the
lace
of his
sandals.
8
I baptized you in
water, but he will baptize you
in holy spirit
[Jesus did not baptise in the holy spirit, he seals in
spirit, washing people in the blood of the angel Michael, the blood of the ARC,
which is a baptism into the name of a holy spirit, or in a holy spirit (him).]

It occurred in those
days
[that]
Jesus
came from
Nazareth
of
Galilee
and was baptized
into the
Jordan
by [upo]
John.
10
And immediately on going up out of [ek]
the
water
[reclining on the bank presumably] he saw the
heavens
being parted [because
angel Michael is leaving them and they remain parted until Immanuel has entered
them],
and, the spirit
[of
Michael] coming down,
as [not
'like' a dove but 'in the body of a' dove]
[wj]

into him;

And immediately
[Not necessarily a temporal connect]
the
spirit
impelled him to go into the desolate [place].
13
And he was in the desolate [place]

Now after

was arrested
Jesus
went into
Galilee, preaching the
good-news
of
God
15
and saying: The

has been fulfilled, and the
kingdom
of
God
has
drawn near. Be repentant and have-faith in the

And passing by (paragwn)
alongside [para] the sea of
Galilee he saw Simon and Andrew, the
brother of Simon casting
(amfiballontaj)
[the net] around in the sea, for they were fishers.
17
So Jesus said to them: Come after me, and I shall make you become
fishers/salters of men.
18
And at once leaving the nets, they followed him.
19
And having gone on (probaj)
a little he saw James, the [one] of the
Zebedee and
John, his
brother,
and them (i.e. they were) in the boat mending the
nets.
20
And at once, he called them. And leaving their father, Zebedee in the

And they went their way into
Capernaum.
And
immediately to the
Sabbaths
[i.e. on the
first available Sabbath]
having entered into the
synagogue
he was teaching.
22
And they were astounded at his
teaching, for there he was teaching them
as [wj]
[one] having
authority, and not as
[wj]
the
scribes.
23
Also, instantly there was in their
synagogue
a
man
with [en]
an unclean
spirit, and he shouted,
24
saying: What have we to do with you
Jesus, Nazarene? Did you come to destroy
us? I know exactly who you are, the Holy [one] of
God.
25
But
Jesus
rebuked it, saying: Be silent, and come on out of him!
26
And having convulsed him, and having yelled with a loud
voice,
the
spirit,
the unclean [one],
came forth out of him.
27
Well, all [ones] were astonished so that they were discussing [matters], saying: What is this? A new
teaching?
With (kata)
authority,
he gives-orders even to the
spirits, the unclean [ones]
and they obey him.
28
So the
message

everywhere into the entire surrounding-country [pericwron]

And immediately [this
could join the Jesus Nazarene demon account above to this curing Peter's mother
in law account, except that the word 'immediately' is in the wrong place for
that. If it read: And they immediately went into the home of Simon, it would
join the two accounts. But immediately leaving the synagogue has no joining
effect. Likewise the word 'immediately' in Mark 1:21 has no effect - as if a

they went out of [ek]
the
synagogue
and went into the
home
of
Simon
and of Andrew
[counts
as home of Simon and home of Andrew] with [meta]
James
and
John.
30
Now the
mother-in-law
of
Simon
was lying down, burning-with-fever, and they at once
told him about her.
31
And going to her he raised her up, having taken hold [krathsaj]

And of
evening
[oyiaj]
the genitive feminine of

adjective meaning late. The feminine is used as a noun meaning evening. But it
is nonetheless an adjective according to Mounce and Strong's.
Thucydides even used
dei,lhj ovyi,aj
meaning
late of evening.

occurring, when the sun
had set, they
were bringing to him
all the [ones] holding [themselves] badly [i.e.
the sick] and
the [ones] being demonized.
33
And the whole
city
was gathered to the
door.
34
So he cured many holding badly in various
sicknesses, and he expelled many

was praying there.

However,

and those with him hunted him down

But he said to them: Let us go somewhere else, into the

CHAPTER 2
1
And having entered into
Capernaum
again, in
days
it was heard he was in his
house.
2
Consequently many gathered, so that [wste]
no longer could one move, not even at the
door, and he
was speaking the
word
to them.
3
And they came bringing him a paralyzed [one] carried by 4 [men].
4
But not being able to bring [him] near to him due to the
crowd, they
uncovered the
roof
where he was, and having dug out [room] they lowered the stretcher
[krabatton]
on which the paralyzed [one] was lying.
5
And when
Jesus
saw their
faith
he said to the paralyzed [one]:
Child, your
sins
are
forgiven.
6
Now some [tinej]
of the scribes
were sitting there, and reasoning in their hearts:
7
Why is this [one] speaking like this? He blasphemes. Who can forgive
sins
except one, the
God?
8
But
Jesus, having discerned immediately by his
spirit
that they were reasoning
like that in themselves, said to them: Why are you reasoning these [things] in your
hearts?
9
Which is easier, to say to the paralyzed [one], 'Your
sins
are forgiven,' or to say,
'Get up and pick up your
stretcher
and walk'?
10
But in order for you men to know that the
Son
of
man
has
authority
to forgive
sins
upon the
earth
- he said to the
paralyzed [one]:
11
I say to you, Get up, pick up your
stretcher, and go
into your
house.

And he got up, and immediately, having picked up the
stretcher,
he went out in front

The Sinaiticus has no autwn. Tregelles cannot decide. But Tischendorf goes with the VaticanB this time. The autwn does not affect the count in Luke. But it adds credibility to the VaticanB rendering of Mark 2:!6,
"And the scribes of the Pharisees, even, seeing him eating" or "And the scribes even of the Pharisees, seeing him eating" would be the correct translation of the Sinaiticus. This would still have Pharisees as a possessive description of the Scribes and so not counting. The count does not work if verse 16 reads:
The scribes and [ones] of the Pharisees [partitive genitive]
13
And he went out again beside the
sea; and all the
crowd
kept coming to him, and he
began to teach them.
14
And passing by he saw
Levi, the
[son] of Alphaeus
sitting at the
tax-office, and he said to him: Be
following me. And rising up he
followed him.
15
And when he was reclining in his
house, and many
tax-collectors
and sinful [ones] were reclining with
Jesus
and his
disciples, for there
were many of them and they were following him.
16
The
Scribes
of the
Pharisees,
having seen that was eating with the sinful [ones]
and
tax-collectors, began saying to his
disciples: Does he eat with the
tax-collectors
and sinful [ones]?
17
Upon hearing this
Jesus
said to them: The [ones] being strong have no
need
of a
healer,
rather the [ones] having [fared] badly. I came to call, not righteous [ones], but
sinful [ones].
18
And were the
disciples
of
John
and the
Pharisees [nominative]
fasting. And they came and said
to him: Why is it the
disciples
of
John
and the
disciples
of the
Pharisees
practice fasting, but your
disciples
do not practice fasting?
19
And
Jesus
said to them: The
sons
of the
bridal-chamber
are not able to fast whilst the
bridegroom
is with them [are they]? For whatever
time
[cronoj]
they have the
bridegroom
with them
they cannot fast.
20
But
days
will come when the
bridegroom
will be taken away from them
[literally
after veil lifting day when the groom must make the bride rejoice for a year], and then
they will fast in that
day
[this
shows that the bible uses 'day' to stand for several days. But it also shows
that there is more than one absence of the groom, i.e. more than one gap between
the first and 2nd presences, i.e a gap in at least one of the two presences]

Now he happened to be proceeding through the sown [areas] [sporimoj]
among the Sabbaths,
and his
disciples
started to make their
way
plucking the
heads-of-grain
[stacuaj].
24
So the
Pharisees
went saying to him: Look! Why are they doing
what is not lawful to the Sabbaths?
25
But he said to them: Have you never once read what
David
did when he had
need
and became hungry, he and the [ones] with him?
26
How [pwj]
he entered into the
house
of the God,
upon [epi]
of Abiathar,
chief-priest,
[in the time of Abiathar
who later became the chief priest, because in 1
Samuel 21/22, he became the chief priest after Doeg killed 85 priests including
Ahimelech his father, who was the chief priest who met David in the temple]
and ate the loaves of
presentation
[after
the 5 loaves given had been replaced with 12 new loaves, having been given
them by the chief priest Ahimelech in the temple 1 Samuel 21:6], which it is not lawful for anybody
to eat except the priests, and he gave some also to the
[ones] being together with him?
27
So he went on to say to them: The
Sabbath came into existence due to
the
man, and not
the
man
due to the
Sabbath.
28
Hence
Lord
is the
Son
of the
man and/even of the
Sabbath.

Mark 2:23-28 and Matthew 12:1-8 and Luke 6:1-5 are parallel. Totals in Matthew.
David entered the temple and met the chief priest Ahimelech who was Abiathar's dad. After this Doeg, the Edomite, killed Ahimelech at the order of Saul with 84 other priests, but Abiathar escaped, becoming the next chief priest. Now had Jesus said: 'Upon Ahimelech, the chief priest', then Ahimelech would be in the genitive due to the preposition 'epi' and so Ahimelech,.the chief priest would be a double designation. The translation would be: At the time of Ahimelech, the chief priest, with 'epi' meaning 'at the time'. But since Abiathar was not the chief priest at the time that David was given the showbread by his father, Jesus must have been referring not to the time of Abiathar, the chief priest, but to the bible account of Abiathar, the chief priest. So the implied noun 'account' makes Abiathar into a possessive genitive. It if for this reason that Jesus used Abiathar rather than Ahimelech was actually was the chief priest when David was given the bread and so would be the more natural choice. Thanks to the Watchtower NWT for getting this one right.
Jesus
is the son of the man (Adam), being non adamic, as Adam was when he was
'the man'. Jesus is not the 'Son of man' as bibles translate this, for then he
would be adamic!!!

1
And again he entered into a
synagogue, and a
man
[anqrwpoj]
was there having a dried-up
hand
[so there were two men with dried up hands in synagogues,
the one in Mark and Luke and the other in Matthew].
2
So they were watching him closely [to see] if he would cure him on the
Sabbaths, in order that they might accuse
him of [something].
3
And he said to the
man,
the [one] having the withered hand: Get up [and come]
into the midst.
4
Next he said to them: Is it lawful on the
Sabbaths
to do good or to do bad, to save or to kill a
soul?
[this
is an implicit comaprison]
But
the [ones] kept silent.
5
And after looking around upon them with [meta]
anger, being thoroughly grieved at
the hardening
[pwrwsij]
of their
heart, he said to the
man: Stretch out your
hand.
And he stretched [it] out, and his
hand
was restored.
6 And having gone out, the Pharisees immediately began holding-council with the Herodians? [Mounce and Groves Wheeler have this as a noun] against him, in order to destroy him [this being a new scene but joined to the previous scene by euquj - immediately].

Matthew refers to the disciples eating grain on several Sabbaths and entering into the synagogue to cure the man with the withered hand on one of these Sabbaths, and Luke refers to them entering into a synagogue on a different Sabbath to their eating grain. These two are therefore saying the same thing.
Hrwdianwn is used substantively. And we now agree with Mounce and Groves Wheeler, that it is a noun. All our noun identifications now agree with Mounce (except Cananean an adjective like Judaean and Galilean, and kuklw a dative noun not an adverb). Strong's is wrong (compared to Mounce) misclassifying nouns as adjectives or vice versa about once in every 6 chapters of the Gospels we are finding. (Koinwnoj) being one example.

The Parallel account Principle of the code tells us that there are 3 further groups of 12 apostles, which are separate pieces of a whole picture. These are the ELC/2EC apostles of Paul, the 2NC/4EC apostles of Gordon and the 4EC/2NC apostles actually of Roger Knight or perhaps whoever he was acting for. Jesus is not mentioned any of the 3 accounts. So we all get to chose our own apostles. Russell never made any apostles since he was a1NC and the 12 tribes of the 1NC had already established during the first presence. All 3 accounts call Judas Iscariot, a betrayer. So all 3 groups of 12 apostles have one betrayer amongst them. The betrayal of Gordon was by Roger Knight, who made himself an apostle of the LWs by stealing the baptism and starting a church within the Watchtower without reference to Gordon. The Betrayer of Roger Knight an Laodicea is AOL/Caleb, the Laodicean 2NC spy of Joshua2. An apostle must have betrayed Paul perhaps founding the second part of FDS2, run by the HLCs but with the 2EC baptism. These betrayals are not all unrighteous. AOL/Caleb does the right thing for example.
The Holy Spirit is always very amusing in its omissions. They have a very dry sense of humour. Yes he does bank with us, is the worst bank reference you can get. Luke falls into that category. He appoints 12 apostles, period. That is Laodicea. Whereas in Mark, he appoints 12 apostles and gives them powers to expel demons, that is the LWs. And in Matthew he appoints 12 apostles and gives them power to expel demons and cure every sickness and infirmity, that was TCC2 (because Paul had those powers). John and James must be Frank and Mike, both ex JWs, sons of Russell, who is Zebedee - meaning my gift yDib.z, or gift of Jehovah hy"D.b.z.

And he went into a house.
20
And again the
crowd
gathered, so that they were not able even to eat
bread.
21
But when the [ones] beside him
[i.e. his relatives, linked to the below, verse 31]
heard about it, they went out to lay hold of him, for
they were saying: He has gone out [of his mind]
[actually Immanuel had gone out].
22
Also, the
scribes,
the [ones] having come down from
Jerusalem, were saying: He has
Beelzebub,
and he expels the demons by
the ruler
[arcon]
of the demons.
23
So, after calling them to him, he began to say to them in
parables: How
can
Satan expel
Satan
[Satan is a
metonym for Members of
the house of Satan]?
24
Why, if a
kingdom
becomes divided against itself, that
kingdom
cannot stand;
25
and if a
house
becomes divided against itself, that
house
will not be able to
stand.
26
Also, if
Satan
[Metonym
for members
of the house of Satan, this cannot be Satan himself unless he is schizophrenic] has risen up against himself and become divided, he cannot stand,
but is coming to an
end
[verse 26 is literal, not comparative].
27
In fact, no one having entered into the
house
of the strong [one] is able to plunder
his
goods
unless first he binds the strong [one], and then he will plunder
his
house
[all parables
as Mark says]
28
Truly I say to you that all [things] will be forgiven the
sons
of the men,
as many
sins
and
blasphemies
as they might blasphemously commit.
29
But, whosoever blasphemes against
the
spirit, the holy,
has no
forgiveness
into the
age
[until time
indefinite],
but is guilty of age-long
sin
[this presumably means no early parole from Gehenna. It's
a 1,000 year sentence].
30
For they were saying: He has an unclean
spirit.
[20,7]
31
Now his
mother
and his
brothers
[linked
to the above, verse 21] came, and, standing outside,
they sent in to him to call him.
32
Now a
crowd
was sitting around him, so they said to him: Look! Your
mother
and your
brothers
outside are seeking you.
33
But having answered he said to them: Who are my
mother
and my
brothers?
34
And having looked about upon those sitting in-a-circle?
[kuklw]
[this is the
dative of
kukloj
a noun meaning a ring or circle. But it is used adverbially according to Liddell and Groves
Wheeler and Mounce. A noun acting as an adverb does not count]
about him, he said: See!

[the congregation of the 1EC, the producer of

brothers
[true angelic brothers]!
35
Whoever does the

MARK
CHAPTER 4
1
And again he started teaching beside the
sea. And a
most-great
crowd
gathered
near him, so that he went aboard a
boat
to sit in the
sea,
and all the
crowd
were [facing] toward the sea
on the earth/seashore
[ghj].
2
And he began to teach them in
parables
many [things]
[so this
account covers several parables actually to verse 34]
and to say to them in
his
instruction
[didach]:
3
Listen! Look! The [one] sowing went out to sow.
4
And this happened in the sowing, some [part of the seed] indeed fell beside the
way, and the
birds
came
and ate it up.
5
And another [part of the seed] fell upon the rocky [place] and [the place] where it did not have
much
earth/soil, and it immediately sprang up
due to it not having depth of
earth/soil.
6
And when the
sun
rose, it was scorched, and due to it not having
root
it withered.
7
And another [part of the seed] fell into the
thorns, and the
thorns
came up and choked it,
and it yielded no
fruit.
8
But other [parts of the seed] fell into the earth/soil,
the fine
[not a double designation. It is equivalent to
the fine soil, c.f. the dragon, the great, the serpent, the original] and, coming up and increasing, they began to
yield
fruit, and they were bearing
into 30, and in 60 and in 100.
9
So he was saying: Whoever has
ears
to listen, let him listen
[ears might be literal or might be the

So the literal counts should be for the entire account and parallel accounts, whereas the symbolic counts are for each individual parable and parallel parables.
10
Now when they got to be alone, the [ones] around him, together with the 12, began questioning him
[on] the
parables.
11
And he proceeded to say to them: To you the
sacred-secret
of the
kingdom
of
God
has been given, but to those outside all [things] occur in
parables,
12
in order that, though looking, they may look and yet not see, and, though
hearing, they may hear and yet not comprehend, nor at any time should they turn back and
it be forgiven them. [3]
13
Further, he said to them: You do not know this
parable, and so how will you
understand all the [other]
parables?
14
The [one] sowing sows the
word.
15
These, then, are the [ones] beside the
way
where the
word
is sown; but whenever they might hear [it]
Satan
immediately comes and takes away the
word,
the [one] having been sown into them.
16
And likewise these are the [ones] sown upon the rocky [places], who whenever they
hear the
word, they
immediately accept it with
joy.
17
Yet they have no
root
in themselves, but are temporary; [at the time]
[implied epi]
of the next [eita]
tribulation
or
persecution
having occurred due to the
word, they are
immediately stumbled.
18
And others are the [ones] sown into the
thorns; these are the ones that
have heard the
word,
19
but the
anxieties
of this
system
and the
deceit
of
riches
and
the
desires
about the remaining [things] impinge and choke the
word, and it
becomes unfruitful.
20
Now the [ones] sown on the
earth/soil,
the fine
[not a double designation. It is equivalent to
the fine soil, c.f. the dragon, the great, the serpent, the original]
are those who listen to the
word
and accept it and bear-fruit in 30 and in 60 and in 100. [17]

And he was saying to them
[the crowds]
that: The
lamp
is not brought in order to be put under a
measuring-basket
or under a
bed, is it?
Is it not in order to be put on a lampstand?
22
For no [thing] is hidden except in order that it be manifested, neither [did
anything] become carefully concealed except in order to be exposed.
23
If anyone has
ears
to listen, let him listen.
24
And he was saying to them: Look at what you are hearing. In what
measure?
that you are measuring out, you will have it measured out to
you
[this is
literal], and [more] will
be added to you.
25
For whoever is having
[spiritual vision]
it will be given to him
[more understandings], and whoever is not
having
[spiritual
vision], even
what he has will be taken away from him
[his present understandings will be shown to be wrong].
26
And he was saying: In-this-way the
kingdom
of
God
is just as [wj]
when a
man
casts
the
seed
upon the
earth,
27
and he sleeps and rises
night
and
day, and the seed sprouts and grows,
just-how [wj]
he does not know.
28
Automatically the
earth
bears-fruit, first the
blade,
next
the
stalk-head,
next the full
cereal [sitoj]
in the
stalk-head.
29
But whenever the
fruit
is available, he immediately thrusts in the
sickle, because the
harvest
has arrived.
[18]
30
And he was saying: To what might we liken the
kingdom
of
God, or in what
parable
shall we set it out?
31
Like [wj]
a
grain [kokkoj]
of
mustard, which
when sown upon the
earth
is smaller than/of
all
the
seeds,
the [ones] upon the earth
[comparative
for superlative - all].
32
But once sown, it comes up and becomes greater [implied
ek]
of all the
vegetables
[comparative for superlative - all]
and produces great
branches, so that the
birds
of the
heaven
are able
to lodge under its
shadow.
33
So with many such-like
parables
he would speak the
word
to them, just as [kaqaj]
they were able to listen.
34
Indeed, without an
parable
he would not speak to them, but privately to his own
disciples
he would explain all [things].

Gadara and Gerasa were cities of Decapolis in land taken from the Girgashites, East of the Jordan and South of the Yarmuk River and North of the Jabbok river. So the land of the Gadarenes was the land of the Gerasenes which was the land of Decapolis essentially. But Matthew 8:18-27 and Mark 4:35-41 are not parallel because the herd of swine in Matthew is said to be far off whereas in Mark it is there on the mountain. Also the account in Mark is set later in the ministry than the account in Matthew.
But Mark 5:1-21 and Luke 8:26-39 are Parallel. Both being set in the land of the Gerasenes and both relating to the expulsion of Legion.
MARK
CHAPTER 5
1
And they came into the other-side [peran]
of the
sea,
into the
country
of the
Gerasenes.
2
And when he got out [ek]
of the
boat
he immediately [euquj]
met a
man
[anqrwpoj],
unclean in spirit,
out of the
memorial-tombs
[mnhmeion].
3
Who had his
abode
in the
tombs
[mnhma]; and
not even by
chain
was anyone yet able to
bind him,
4
because he had many-times [pollakij]
[adverb] been bound by
manacles
and
chains, but the
chains
were snapped apart by him and the
manacles
were smashed; and nobody
was able to subdue him.
5
And all through [the]
night
and [the]
day, he was crying out in the
tombs
and in the
mountains
and slashing himself by
stones.
6
But having seen the
Jesus
from afar [makroqen]
he ran and did obeisance to him,
7
and, having cried out in a loud
voice, he said: What have I to do with
you,
Jesus,
Son
of the
God, the most high?
[there is a
reader question!]
I put you under-oath
towards
God
not to torment
me.
8
For he was telling it: Come out you, the
spirit, the unclean,
out [ek]
of the man
[anqrwpou].
9
But was asking him: What is your
name? And he said to him:
Legion
is my
name, because
we are many.
10
And he entreated him many [times] not to send [aposteilh]
them
outside
[exw]
[adverb
used substantively?]
of the
country.
11
But there, towards the
mountain
was a great
herd
of
swine,
grazing.
12
So they entreated him, saying: Send us into the
swine, that we may enter into
them.
13
And he permitted them. So having come out,
the
spirits, the unclean
entered into
the
swine; and the
herd
rushed over the
precipice
into the
sea,
[wj]
like/about 2,000 [of them], and they were drowning in the
sea.
14
And the [ones] feeding them fled and reported back into the
city
and into the
fields;
and they came to see what it was that had happened.
15
So they came to
Jesus, and they beheld the
[one] being demonized sitting clothed
and sound minded, [even] the [one] having had the
Legion; and they grew-fearful.
16
Also, the [ones] having seen [it] related to them how this had happened to the
[one] being demonized and about the
swine.
17
And they started to entreat him to depart from their
districts.
18
Now as he was boarding the
boat, the
demon-possessed [one] was
entreating him so that he might continue with him.
19
However, he did not let him, but said to him: Go into your
house,
towards the [relatives] of yours, and
report to them as many [things] as the
Lord
has done for you, and
[that] he had-mercy on you.
20
And he went away and started to proclaim in the
Decapolis
as many [things] as
Jesus
did for him, and all were wondering.
21 And [upon] of the Jesus,
having
crossed over again in the boat
in to the other-side a great crowd gathered
together to him; and he was beside the sea.

22
Now one [eij]
of the
synagogue-rulers
[arcisunagwgwn]
[partitive genitive],
Jairus
by
name,
comes and having seen him, he falls at his
feet [new
scene, new focus like Anna the prophetess]
23
and entreats him many [times], saying that: My
little-daughter
[qugatrion]
is having [sickness] terminally. [Please come] in order that having come you can
put the
hands
to her in order that she
might be saved and might live.
24
And he went off with him. And a great
crowd
was following him and they were pressing him.
25
Now a
woman
had had a
flow
of
blood
12
years,
26
and she had suffered many [things] under many
physicians
and had spent all she had and had not been benefited but, rather, had got worse.
27
Having heard the [things] about
Jesus,
having come in the
crowd,
from behind she touched of his
outer-garment
[genitive direct object];
28
for she was saying that: If ever I might touch just of his
outer-garments
[genitive
direct object]
I shall be saved.
29
And immediately the
stream
of her
blood
dried up, and she sensed in her
body
that
she had been healed from the
scourge.
30
And immediately
Jesus
having recognized in himself the
power
having gone out of him, turned in the
crowd
and was saying: Who touched of my
outer-garments
[genitive direct object]?
31
But his
disciples
were saying to him: You are seeing the
crowd
pressing you,
and you say, 'Who touched of me?'
32
However, he was looking around to see the [one] having done this.
33
Then [de]
the
woman, frightened and trembling, knowing what had happened to her, came
and fell down before him and told him the whole
truth.
34
He said to her:
Daughter
[qugathr], your
faith
has saved you. Go into
peace, and be
sound-in-health from your
scourge.
35
[Upon - implied epi] of him still speaking, [ones] were coming from the
synagogue-ruler
[from his household]
saying that your
daughter
has died. Why bother the
teacher
any
longer?
36
But
Jesus,
having overheard the
word/message
being spoken, said to the
synagogue-ruler:
Do not fear, only have-faith.
37
Now he did not let anyone follow along with him except
Peter
and
James
and
John,
the brother of James.
38
So they came to the
house
of the
synagogue-ruler, and he
beheld
uproar
and many [ones] weeping and [ones] wailing,
39
and, having stepped in, he said to them: Why are you causing-uproar and weeping? The
little-child
has not died, but is sleeping.
40
And they began to laugh at him. But, having evicted all [of them], he
took along the
father
of the
little-child
and
mother
and the [ones] with him, and he went
in where the
little-child
was.
41
And, taking the
hand
of the
little-child, he said to her:
Talitha
[not
Greek noun]
cumi, which is translated: Maiden
[korasion], I say to you, Get up!
42
And immediately the
maiden
rose and began walking, for she was of
years
12
[quantitative genitive]. And immediately they stood out of [themselves] with great
ecstasy.
43
But he ordered them many [times] in order that no one should know this, and he said
[something] should be given her to eat.

CHAPTER 6
1
And he departed from there and came into his father-town
[patrida]
[which was Nazareth], and his
disciples
followed him.
2
[at the time -

having arrived he started teaching in the
synagogue; and the
many listening were astounded saying: Where did this [one] get these [things]

and are such

[counts as

And
are his

not here with us? So
they began to stumble at him.
4
But
Jesus
said to them: No
prophet
is dishonoured except in his
father-town
and among his related
[ones] and in his
house.
5
So he was not able to produce even one
power [dunamij]
there except to cure a few sick [ones] having put the
hands
upon [them].

Indeed, he wondered at their
faithlessness.

Now he summoned the 12, and he initiated sending them out 2 [by] 2, and he was
giving them
authority of
the spirits, the unclean
[possessive genitive, the same authority to begin
and end demonic possession as the unclean spirits have].
8
Also, he instructed them to carry nothing for the

except a

alone, no
bread, no
food-pouch, no
copper

Now
the
King, Herod, heard [about
Jesus] for
his name became
manifest, and they were saying that John,
the [one] baptizing has been raised
out of [the] dead [ones], and due to this the powerful-works are operating in him.
15
But others were saying that it is
Elijah. Still others were
saying that [it is] a prophet
like [wj]
one of the
prophets
[partitive genitive].
16
But
Herod,
having heard said:
John,
whom I beheaded, this [one] has
been raised up.
17
For
Herod
himself had sent out and arrested
John
and bound him in
prison
due to
Herodias, the wife of
Philip, his brother, because he had married her.
18
For
John
was saying to
Herod
that it is not lawful for you to be having the
wife
of your
brother.
19
So
Herodias
was nursing-a-grudge against him and was wanting to kill him, but
could not [18].
20
For
Herod
was fearing
John, knowing him to be a
male
[andrej] righteous
and holy; and
he was keeping-safe him. And after hearing many [things] of him he was at-a-loss, yet he continued to hear him gladly.
21
Now [at the time -
epi]
of a convenient
day
arriving, when
Herod
spread an
evening-meal
for his
birthday-festivities
for his
top-ranking-men
and for the
chiliarchs
and for the foremost [ones] of
Galilee.
[28]
22
And [at the time -
epi]
of his
daughter
of
Herodias
having entered and having
danced, she pleased
Herod
and the [ones] reclining with him.
So the
king
said to the maiden
[korasin]: Ask me for whatever you
want, and I will give it to you.
23
Yes, he swore to her: Whatever you ask me for, I will give it to you, up to half
[hmisouj]
of my
kingdom
[partitive
genitive].
24
And she went out and said to her
mother: What should I ask for? She said: The
head
of
John, the
[one] baptizing.
25
And immediately having entered she requested to the king
with
haste, saying: I
want you to give me right away on a plate, the
head of
John, the
Baptist.
26
Although the
king
became deeply grieved, due to the
oaths
the [ones] reclining he did not want to disregard her.
27
So the
king
dispatched a
body-guardsman
and commanded him to bring
his
head
immediately. And he went off and beheaded him in the
prison
[the
Greek reads: having sent off the guard he commanded him - not easy to do!]
28
and brought his
head
on a
plate, and he gave it to the
maiden, and the
maiden
gave it to her
mother.
29
And having heard, his
disciples
came and took up his
corpse
and laid it in a
memorial-tomb

The combination without Matthew counts OK,
but then Matthew does not count OK. Each account individually does not count OK
and all together they count OK. So combination counts must work entirely for a
combination to be valid.
Luke 3 and Luke 9 are not parallel to each other. One is the account of Herod
beheading John. The other is him thinking that Jesus was the resurrected John.
Matthew and Mark are parallel to Luke 9 but include the story of Luke3. So both
Luke 3 and Luke 9 are parallel to Matthew 14 and Mark 6. This makes all 4
parallel.

And the
apostles
gathered together before
Jesus
and reported to him all [things]
as many as they had done and as many as they had taught.
31
And he said to them: Come, you yourselves, privately into a desolate/lonely
place
and
rest up a little. For the [ones] coming and the [ones] going were many, and they
did not have-an-opportunity to eat.
32
So they went off in the
boat
[from Capernaum]
into a lonely
place
for themselves.
33
But many saw them going and got to know it, and they
ran there together on-foot from all the
cities
and got ahead of them.
34
Well, on getting out, he saw a great
crowd, but he
felt-tender-affection for them,
because they were as [wj]
sheep
without a
shepherd. And he started to teach them many
[things].
35
And [upon] of the
hour
already having come to be much, his
disciples
came up to him and said: The
place
is lonely, and the
hour
is already much.
36
Send them away, in order that they may go off into the
fields
and
villages
in a
circle [kuklw]
and buy themselves what they might eat.
37
Answering he said to them: You give to them to eat. At this they said to
him: Having gone off shall we buy
loaves
[implied ek] [out]
of 200
denarii
and give to them to eat?
38
He said to them: How many
loaves
have you? Go see! After ascertaining it, they
said: 5, and 2
fishes
[icquaj].
39
And he instructed them all to recline symposiums
[by] symposiums
on the green
grass.
40
And they laid themselves down
leek-beds
[by]

[4 true religions]
according to 100 and according to 50.
41
And having taken the 5
loaves
and the 2
fishes,
having looked up into heaven,
he blessed and broke the loaves
and began giving them to the
disciples,
in order that they might place them before them; and he divided up the 2 fishes for
all.
42
So they all ate and were satisfied;
43
and they took up

was in the midst of the

thought that it was an

For all saw him and were troubled. But he immediately spoke with them, and said to them: Take-courage,
I am [the one you are seeing]; fear not.
51
And he stepped up towards them into the
boat, and the
wind
abated. At this they were
very much amazed within themselves,
52
for they had not perceived [the
greater meaning of the loaves]
upon [epi]

MARK
CHAPTER 7
1
Now the
Pharisees
and some of the
Scribes
[partitive genitive],
having
come from
Jerusalem
were gathering towards
him.
2
And having seen that some of his
disciples
eat the
breads/
loaves
[artouj]
with defiled
hands, that
is, with unwashed [ones]
3
(for the
Pharisees
and all the
Judaean [ones] [ioudaioi]
[Liddell
says noun, Groves Wheeler says adjective, Mounce says adjective]
do not eat unless they wash the
hands
in
fist
[i.e. up to the forearm], holding fast the
tradition
of the ancient [ones]),
4
and, [having come] from the
market, they do not eat unless they
shower [themselves], and they have received many other [things] to hold
fast,
baptisms
of
cups
and
{baptisms}
of
pitchers
and
{baptisms}
of
copper-vessels,
5
so the
Pharisees
and the
Scribes
asked him: Why are your
disciples
not walking about according to the
tradition
of the ancient [ones], but
are eating
loaf/bread
[arton]
with defiled
hands?
6
He said to them:
Isaiah
aptly prophesied about you
hypocrites,
[saying]
just as [wj]
it has been written that, 'This
people
honor me with their
lips, but
their
heart
is far removed from me
[he said this
- see Matthew 15:7],
.
7
Fruitlessly they keep worshiping me, [ones] teaching [for]
doctrines,
commands
[entalma] of
men.'
8
Letting go the
commandment
[entolhn]
of
God, you hold fast the
tradition of
men.
9
Further, he went on to say to them: Deftly you set aside the
commandment
of
God
in order to observe your
tradition.
10
For Moses
said, 'Honor your
father
and your
mother,' and,
'The [one] reviling
father
or
mother,
let him stop by
death.'
11
But you teach, 'If a
man
says to his
father
or his
mother:
[this thing] by which you might-get-benefit out of me is Corban
[A Hebrew word],
that is an offering
12
then he no longer has to do anything [with that thing] for his
father
or his
mother,
13
invalidating the
word
of
God by your
tradition
which you handed down
[tautologous],
And many such similar [things] you do.
14
And having called over the
crowd
again, he said to them: Listen to me,
all of you, and understand.
15
Nothing which is from outside [exwqen]
of the man
[outside
is not substantive it is an improper preposition]
passing into him is able to defile him;
but the [things] coming forth out of the man are the
[things] defiling the man

17
Now when he had entered into a
house
[away] from the
crowd, his
disciples
began to
question him about the
parable
[a parable comparing vomit to bad words].
18
So he said to them: Are you also [ones] unenlightened thus? Are you not aware
that nothing from outside [exwqen]
that passes [physically]
into a
man
can defile him,
19
since it passes, not into the
heart, but into

out into the

[thereby] declaring-clean all the

20
Further, he said that: The [thing] going out of the
man defiles
the
man
[spiritually];
21
for from inside, out of the

From there he rose up and went off into the
regions
of
Tyre
and
{regions}
of
Sidon. And
having entered into a
house
he wanted no-one to know,
yet he was not able to escape-notice;
25
but immediately, having heard about him, a
woman
whose
little-daughter
[qugatrion]
had an unclean

came and prostrated herself at his

26
But the
woman
was
a
Greekess,
[Ellhnij

a

But said to her: Permit first the

not right to take the

28
But she answered and said to him: Yes

yet the

And he said to her: Due to this

31
And again [palin]
having gone out of the

Tyre
he came through
Sidon
into the
sea
of
Galilee
up the midst of the

of
Decapolis.
32
Here they brought him a [one] deaf and speech-impaired, and they
entreated him in order that he might lay his

33

35
Well, his

were opened, and the

of his
tongue
was
loosed, and he began speaking normally.
36
With that he charged them not to tell anyone; but the more he would charge them,
that much more they would proclaim it.

Indeed, they were astounded most abundantly saying: He
has done all things excellently. Even the deaf [ones] the makes hear and the speechless

MARK
CHAPTER 8
1
In those
days,
[at the time] again of big
crowd
existing and of not having
what they might eat, he
summoned the
disciples
and said to them:
2
I feel pity upon the
crowd, because
they have remained with me 3
days
already and they have nothing to eat;
3
and if I should send them off fasting into their
house, they will give out
in the
way/road. Indeed, some of them are from far away.
4
But his
disciples
answered him that: From where will anybody be able to satisfy of
loaves
[genitive indirect object] these [ones] here in a
desolate-place
[erhmiaj]?
5
But he asked them: How many
loaves
have you? They said: 7
[].
6
And he ordered the
crowd
to recline on the
earth/ground, and he took the 7
loaves,
gave thanks, broke them, and began to give them to his
disciples
in order that they might
serve [them], and
they served them to the
crowd.
7
They also had a few
little-fishes
[icqudion]
and, having blessed
these, he told them also
to serve these.
8
Accordingly they ate and were satisfied, and they took up
surpluses
[perisseuma

fragments, 7

Yet there were about/as [wj]

10 And immediately he stepped into the boat with his disciples and came into the parts [meroj] of Dalmanutha.

And the

came out and started disputing with him, seeking from him a
sign
from the sky/heaven

And having left them, having stepped in again [to the boat]
[as he did in verse 10], he went off to the
other side [peran].
14
And they forgot to take
loaves
[of the feeding of the 4,000], and except
one?
loaf
they had
nothing with them in the
boat.
15
And he began to order them and say: Keep looking, watch out from

Pharisees
and the
leaven

Herod.
16
So they went arguing with one another that they had not
loaves.
17
Knowing [this], he said to them: Why are you arguing over your having not
loaves? Do
you not yet perceive and do you not understand? Do you have your
heart
dulled?
18
Having
eyes, do you not see; and
having
ears, do you not
hear?
[The

And do you not remember,

when I broke the 5
loaves for the 5,000 [men], how many

[kofinoj]

Now they came into

And they brought him a blind [one], and they

Next he again laid his

But the [one], having turned and having seen his

And they began to question him, saying: Why are the
scribes
saying that
Elijah
must come first?
12
But the [one] said to them:
Elijah
indeed comes first and restores all [things]; but how is it
that it is written about the
Son
of the
man
[written concerning the son of Man that: He
(comparative) should suffer]
that he should suffer many [things] and be treated contemptuously?
13
But I say to you that
Elijah,
has already come, and they did to him as many [things]
as they wanted, just as [kaqwj]
it is has been written about him.

14
Now, coming toward the [other]
disciples, they
saw a great
crowd
around them and
scribes
disputing with them.
15
But all the
crowd
having seen him were stunned immediately, and, running
up to him, they began to greet him.
16
And he asked them: What are you disputing with them?
17
And one out [ek]
of the
crowd
answered him:
Teacher, I brought my
son
to you having a speechless
spirit;
18
and wherever it seizes him it convulses him, and he foams and grinds/grates [trizw
not brugmoj]
[literally
sqeaks not gnashes]
the
teeth
and dries-up/withers. And I spoke to your
disciples
in order that they might expel it, but
they were not capable.
19
But the [one] said to them in-response: Oh faithless
generation, how long must I continue
with you? How long must I put up with you?
[the account
will answer this question]
Bring him to me.
20
So they brought him to him. But having seen him the
spirit
immediately caused him to convulse, and having fallen upon the
earth
he kept rolling
about, foaming.
21
And he asked his
father:
For how much time
is it [that fits] as [wj] this
have been happening to him? And the [one] said: out of from-early-childhood [i.e.
from early childhood onwards]
22
and many-times [pollakij]
it would throw him both into
fire
and into
waters
in order to
destroy him. But if you can do anything, pity us and help us.
23
But
Jesus
said to him: The [expression], 'If you can'! [Why], all [things] [are] possible
for the faithful [one].
24
Immediately crying out, the
father
of the
little-boy
[paidion]
was saying: I have-faith!
Help me with
faithlessness
[apistia]
[so
faithlessness is not absolute. So it is not a precise negative of faith. So
interpreting 'Faith' does not give us 'Faithlessness']!
25
But
Jesus,
having seen that a
crowd
was running together upon [them], rebuked
the
spirit,
the unclean [one]
[certainly does make sense singly due to
the next phrase. So this is a
double designation and CNC and INC are divisible by 3], saying to it:
The
speechless
and deaf
spirit, I order you, get
out of him and enter into him no more.
26
And having cried out and having convulsed repeatedly it came out; and he
became as if [wsei]
dead, so that the many of them were saying that he had died.
27
But
Jesus
having grasped [kratew]
of his hand
[genitive direct object]
raised him up, and he rose.
28
And [epi
- at the time] of his entering into a
house,
his
disciples asked him
privately
[different

Why could we not expel it?
29
And he said to them: This

cannot come out by anything except by
prayer.

And having departed from there they were going through

Whereas Luke is set after the expulsion when people are marvelling and before he entered into the house and explained how to expel the demon. Luke was the warm up: I am going to be delivered into the hands of men. Matthew and Mark are the big deal: They will kill me and I will rise on/after the 3rd day.

33
And they came into
Capernaum.
Now
having come to be in the
house
he asked them: What were you arguing over
in the
way/road?
34
But they kept silent, for they had argued among themselves who [was] greater in the
way/road.
35
So having sat down he called the 12 and said to them: If anyone wants to be first,
he must be last of all and
servant/minister
of all.
36
And he took a
little-child, stood it in
[the] midst of them and having-taken-into-his-arms it, he said to them:
37
Whoever receives one of the little-children
like-this [toioutwn]
[partitive
genitive, spiritual children, coming with Jesus' authority - 'such like']
upon my
name
[a child who comes on the basis of Jesus name, a child who
comes with Jesus' authority], receives
me; and whoever receives me, receives, not me, but the [one] having sent me
forth.
38
John
said to him:
Teacher
[didaskaloj], we
[not I
but we, so it could have happened twice once here and once in Luke 9:49]
saw a certain [one] expelling demons
in
your name and we
were preventing him, because he was not following us.
39
But
Jesus
said: Do not prevent him, for [there] is no one that will do a
powerful-work
upon my
name
and will quickly be able to revile me;
40
for he who is not against us is for us.
41
For whoever gives you a
cup
of
water
to drink because you are [there] in the
name
of
Christ, I truly
I saying to you, he will certainly not lose his reward.
42
But whoever stumbles one of these little [ones], the [ones] believing, it would be finer
for him if a
millstone
of-an-ass were put around his
neck
and
he were thrown into the
sea
[symbolic speech for being permanently
thrown out of the true church with the condemnatory stone tablet of the Ass, the
law of the church hung around his neck in shame - for at least he can be sealed
into the FRC or the OMC]
43
And if ever your
hand
stumbles you, cut it off. It is finer for you to
enter into
life
maimed than having the 2
hands
to go off into
Gehenna, into
the fire,
the inextinguishable
[asbestoj]
[really this is into the inextinguishable fire - so not a double designation

44 [[[[

[[[[

Answering he said to them: What did

command you?
4
They said:
Moses
conceded to write a

But
Jesus
said to them: [Due] to your

he wrote you this
commandment.

But, from [the]

of
creation
'He made them male [arsen]

rebuked them.

You know the

[ones], and you
will have

follow me.
22
But having grown-sad upon the
word
he went off grieving, for he was holding many
possessions.
23
And having looked around
Jesus
said to his
disciples: How difficultly
the [ones] having
riches
will enter into the
kingdom
of
God!
24
But the
disciples
were astonished upon his
words.
But
Jesus
having answered again
said to them:
Children?, how difficult
[a thing] it is to enter into the
kingdom
of
God!
[23]
25
It is easier [for] a
camel
to go through the
aperture/hole/eye
of a
needle
[rafij]

enter into the

said: With

[it is] impossible, but not [so] with

They said to him: Grant us to sit down, one out of your right [places] and one
out of your left [places], in your

tied, upon which no-one of

And if anyone says to you, 'Why are you doing this?' say, 'The

4
Well, they went away and found the
colt
tied at the
door, outside

But some of the [ones] standing there began to say to them: What are you doing
loosing the
colt?

Jesus had said; and they let them go.

to

he started to

nations'? [Isaiah

of
robbers [not quoting Jeremiah 7:11. Just

And whenever it became late, they would go out [exeporeuonto]

[to the]
outside

of the city.
20
And passing by early-in-the-morning [by

fig-tree
having withered from the
roots.
21
Well
Peter,
having remembered, said to him:
Rabbi [Hebrew

See! the
fig-tree
which you cursed
has withered
[it withered
instantly as mentioned in Matthew 21, but the disciples did not see it until the
next day. Ain't that the way!]
22
And in-reply
Jesus
said to them: Have
faith

God
[pistin

then the 1AC would be meaningless. The genitive is therefore not possessive].
23
Truly I am saying to you that whoever tells this
mountain, 'Be lifted up and thrown
into the
sea,' and does not doubt in his
heart
but has-faith that what he says
is occurring, it will be for him.
24
Due to this I tell you, All [things] as many as you are praying [for] and asking
[for], have-faith that you
have received [them], and it will be for you.
25
And whenever stand praying, forgive whatever you have against anyone [in your heart, so you
will not enforce redress, but you will continue to point out the error until
repentance, which you accept]; in order that
the Father of you, the [one] in the heavens,
may also
forgive you your trespasses.

The Vatican B appears to be confirmed as canonical here (they were the fallen FDS1 after all). The account would not count correctly with verse 26 included. This assumes that 'God' is not used possessively and so 'God' counts. Which has got to be some kind of joke from the Holy Spirit. Like which codex is 'of God'? (i.e. from God) and can God count? and does God count? etc etc. Actually verse 26 is nonsense, God does forgive those who do not forgive, by virtue of their faith. Also you forgive others whilst praying, i.e. in your heart, but you still point out their sin and ask them to repent.

MARK
CHAPTER 12
1
And, he started to speak to them in
parables: A
man
planted a
vineyard,
and put a
fence
around it, and dug a
winepress-vat
and erected a
tower,
and let it out to
cultivators, and traveled abroad.
2
And he sent off toward the
cultivators
at the
appointed time
a
slave, that he might get
[something] from the
fruits
of the
vineyard
from/beside the
cultivators.
3
But they took him, beat him up and sent him away empty.
4
And again [palin]
he sent forth another
slave
to them; and that [one] they struck-on-the-head and dishonored.
5
And he sent forth another, and that one they killed; and many others, some of
whom they beat up and some of whom they killed.
6
One more he had, a beloved
son. He sent him forth last to them, saying, 'They
will respect my
son.'
7
But those
cultivators
said among themselves, 'This is the
heir. Come, let us
kill him, and the
inheritance
will be ours.'
8
And having taken [him] they killed him, and threw him out [exebalon]
outside [exw] [adverb]
of the
vineyard.
9
[So] what will the
lord
of the
vineyard
do? He will come and destroy the
cultivators, and will give the
vineyard
to others.

Shall we pay, or shall we not pay? But he knowing their

said to them:
Why are testing me? Bring me a denarius

image
and

is this? They
said to him: [The image] of

And
the
Sadducees
came to him, who say there is no
resurrection, and they
were asking him saying:
19
Teacher,
Moses
wrote to us that [oti]
if someone's
brother
dies and leaves a
woman
behind
but does not leave a
child
[teknon],
then. [ean ...
ina]
[if...then]
his
brother
should take the
woman
and raise up
seed
from her for his
brother.
20
There were 7
brothers; and the first
[one] took a
woman, but
dying he left no
seed.
21
And the second [one] took her, and died without leaving
seed; and the 3rd
[one] as-thus [wsautwj].
22
And the 7 did not leave a
seed. Last of all
[them] the woman also died.
23
In the
resurrection, a woman
of which of them will she be? For the 7 had her [that]
woman
[gunaika
accusative
agreeing with 'her'].
24
Jesus
said to them: Is not this why you are mistaken, your knowing neither
the
Scriptures
nor the
power
of
God?
25
For when they rise from the dead [ones], neither do [males] marry nor are [females] given-in-marriage, but
they are as [wj]
angels
in the
heavens.
26
But about the dead [ones], that they are raised up, did you not read in the
book
of
Moses,
upon/about the
thornbush
how
God
said to him, 'I am the
God
of
Abraham
and
God
of
Isaac
and
God
of
Jacob'?
27
He is a
God, not of the
dead [ones], but of the living [ones]. You are much mistaken.

If brothers live together, and one of them dies, and has no son, the wife of the
dead shall not go outside to a strange man; her brother-in-law shall go in to
her, and take her to himself for a wife, and shall perform the duty of the
levirate; (Deuteronomy 25 GLT)
5 And if brethren should live together, and one of them
should die, and should not have seed, the wife of the deceased shall not marry
out [of the family] to a man not related: her husband's brother shall go in to
her, and shall take her to himself for a wife, and shall dwell with her.
(Deuteronomy 25 LXXb)
28
And one of the
scribes
[partitive genitive]
having come up, having heard their disputing
[i.e. in the same audience, so this scene related to the scene above], knowing that
he had answered them well, asked him: Which
commandment
is first of
all?
29
Jesus
answered that the first [one] is: Hear, Oh
Israel,
[the] Lord our
God is one
Lord,
30
and you must love [the]
Lord,
God
[does not substitute at verse 36]
of
you out of your whole
heart
and out of your whole
soul
and out of your whole
mind
and out of your whole
strength.'
31
[The] second [one] is this, 'You must love your neighbouring [one] as yourself.' There is no other
commandment
greater than these.
32
The
scribe
said to him:
Teacher, you
spoke well upon
truth, 'He is One,
and there is no other than He';
33
and this loving him out of whole
heart
and out of whole
understanding
and out of whole
strength
and this loving the neighbouring [one] as oneself is more-valuable/important [perissoteron] of/than all the
whole-burnt-offerings
and
sacrifices
[perissoj
takes the genitive when meaning 'beyond' or 'more important than'].
34
And
Jesus,
having seen that he had answered intelligently, said to him: You are
not far from the
kingdom
of
God. But
nobody had the courage anymore to question
him
[thereby
ending the questioning and the account].

And having answered,
[not in response to the questioning of

Jesus
was saying, [as he was] teaching in the
temple: How
are the

saying/can the scribes be
saying/ that the
Christ
is
[a] son

said to my
Lord: Sit

himself calls him 'Lord,'
so how is he his
son? And the

And as he was sitting on the Mount of Olives with the temple in view, Peter and
James and John and Andrew began to ask him privately:
4
Tell us, When will these things be, and what will be the sign when all these
things are destined to come to a conclusion?
5
So Jesus started to say to them: Look out that nobody misleads you.
6
Many will come on the basis of my name, saying, 'I am he,' and will mislead
many.
7
Moreover, when you hear of wars and reports of wars, do not be terrified; [these
things] must take place, but the end is not yet.
8
For nation will rise against nation and kingdom against kingdom, there will be
earthquakes in one place after another, there will be food shortages. These are
a beginning of pangs of distress.
9
As for you, look out for yourselves; people will deliver you up to local courts,
and you will be beaten in synagogues and be put on the stand before governors
and kings for my sake, for a witness to them.
10
Also, in all the nations the good news has to be preached first.
11
But when they are leading you along to deliver you up, do not be anxious
beforehand about what to speak; but whatever is given you in that hour, speak
this, for you are not the ones speaking, but the holy spirit is.
12
Furthermore, brother will deliver brother over to death, and a father a child,
and children will rise up against parents and have them put to death;
13
and you will be objects of hatred by all people on account of my name. But he
that has endured to the end is the one that will be saved.
14
However, when you catch sight of the disgusting thing that causes desolation
standing where it ought not let the reader use discernment, then let those in
Judea begin fleeing to the mountains.
15
Let the man on the housetop not come down, nor go inside to take anything out of
his house;
16
and let the man in the field not return to the things behind to pick up his
outer garment.
17
Woe to the pregnant women and those suckling a baby in those days!
18
Keep praying that it may not occur of winter
19
for those days will be [days of] a tribulation such as has not occurred from
[the] beginning of the creation which God created until that time, and will not
occur again.
20
In fact, unless Jehovah had cut short the days, not all [chosen] flesh would be saved. But on
account of the chosen ones whom he has chosen he has cut short the days.
21
Then, too, if anyone says to you, 'See! Here is the Christ,' 'See! There he is,'
do not believe [it].
22
For false Christs and false prophets will arise and will give signs and wonders
to lead astray, if possible, the chosen ones.
23
you, then, watch out; I have told you all things beforehand.
24
But in those days, after that tribulation, the sun will be darkened, and the
moon will not give its light,
25
and the stars will be falling out of heaven, and the powers that are in the
heavens will be shaken.
26
And then they will see the Son of man coming in clouds with great power and
glory.
27
And then he will send forth the angels and will gather his chosen ones together
from the 4 winds, from earth's extremity to heaven's extremity.
28
Now from the fig tree learn the illustration: Just as soon as its young branch
grows tender and puts forth its leaves, you know that summer is near.
29
Likewise also you, when you see these things happening, know that he is near, at
the doors.
30
Truly I say to you that this generation will by no means pass away/come
beside/arrive until all
these things happen.
31
Heaven and earth will pass away/come beside/arrive, but my words will not
pass away/come beside/arrive.
32
Concerning that day or the hour nobody has seen, neither the angels in heaven
nor the Son, but the Father.
33
Keep looking, keep awake, for you do not know when the appointed time is.
34
It is like a man travelling abroad that left his house and gave the authority to
his slaves, to each one his work, and commanded the doorkeeper to keep on the
watch.
35
Therefore keep on the watch, for you do not know when the master of the house is
coming, whether late in the day or at midnight or at cockcrowing or early in the
morning;
36
in order that when he arrives suddenly, he does not find you sleeping.
37
But what I say to you I say to all, Keep on the watch.

Matthew 26:3-16 and Mark 14:1-11 and Luke 22:1-6 are parallel. John 11:55-57 is not being set at least 4 days earlier (in Mark 14:2 the chief priests repeatedly said not at the festival). .
So the story from verse 1 to verse 11 is that the Chief priests were seeking how to seize him and kill him and while Jesus was in Simon's house in Bethany a woman put oil on his head which upset the disciples and Judas was one of the ones indignant about the use of the oil. So he went off from that meal to the Chief priests in order to betray him. That is all one story because Judas went off not on a new tack but to help the chief priests in their search which is a part of the original story. This joins together seemingly separate accounts in Matthew etc.

12
Now on the first day of unfermented cakes, when they customarily sacrificed the Passover
[victim], his disciples said to him: Where do you want us to go and
prepare for you to eat the Passover?
13
With that he sent forth 2 of his disciples and said to them: Go into the city,
and a man carrying an earthenware vessel of water will encounter you. Follow
him,
14
and wherever he goes inside say to the householder, 'The Teacher says: Where is
the guest room for me where I may eat the Passover with my disciples?'
15
And he will show you a large upper room, furnished in preparation; and there
prepare for us.
16
So the disciples went out, and they entered the city and found it just as he
said to them; and they prepared for the Passover.
17
After evening had fallen he came with the 12.
18
And as they were reclining at the table and eating, Jesus said: Truly I say to
you, One of you, who is eating with me, will betray me.
19
They started to be grieved and to say to him one by one: It is not I, is it?
20
He said to them: It is one of the 12, who is dipping with me into the common
bowl.
21
True, the Son of man is going away, just as it is written concerning him, but
woe to that man through whom the Son of man is betrayed! It would have been
finer for that man if he had not been born.
22
And as they continued eating, he took a loaf, said a blessing, broke it and gave
it to them, and said: Take it, this means my body.
23
And taking a cup, he offered thanks and gave it to them, and they all drank out
of it.
24
And he said to them: This means my 'blood of the covenant,' which is to be
poured out in behalf of many.
25
Truly I say to you, I shall by no means drink anymore of the product of the vine
until that day when I drink it new in the kingdom of God.
26
Finally, after singing praises, they went out to the Mount of Olives.
27
And Jesus said to them: You will all be stumbled, because it is written, 'I will
strike the shepherd, and the sheep will be scattered about.'
28
But after I have been raised up I will go ahead of you into Galilee.
29
But Peter said to him: Even if all the others are stumbled, yet I will not be.
30
At that Jesus said to him: Truly I say to you, You today, yes, this night,
before a cock crows twice, even you will disown me 3 times.
31
But he began to say profusely: If I have to die with you, I will by no means
disown you. Also, all the others began saying the same thing.
32
So they came to a spot named Gethsemane, and he said to his disciples: Sit down
here while I pray.
33
And he took Peter and James and John along with him, and he started to be
stunned and to be sorely troubled.
34
And he said to them: My soul is deeply grieved, even to death. Stay here and
keep on the watch.
35
And going a little way forward he proceeded to fall on the ground and began
praying that, if it were possible, the hour might pass away from him.
36
And he went on to say: Abba, Father, all things are possible to you; remove this
cup from me. Yet not what I want, but what you want.
37
And he came and found them sleeping, and he said to Peter: Simon, are you
sleeping? Did you not have strength to keep on the watch one hour?
38
Men, keep on the watch and praying, in order that you do not come into
temptation. The spirit, of course, is eager, but the flesh is weak.
39
And he went away again and prayed, saying the same word.
40
And again he came and found them sleeping, for their eyes were weighed down, and
so they did not know what to answer him.
41
And he came the 3rd time and said to them: At such a time as this you are
sleeping and taking your rest! It is enough! The hour has come! Look! The Son of
man is betrayed into the hands of sinners.
42
Get up, let us go. Look! My betrayer has drawn near.
43
And immediately, while he was yet speaking, Judas, one of the 12, arrived and
with him a crowd with swords and clubs from the chief priests and the scribes
and the older men.
44
Now his betrayer had given them an agreed sign, saying: Whoever it is I kiss,
this is he; take him into custody and lead him away safely.
45
And he came straight up and approached him and said: Rabbi! and kissed him very
tenderly.
46
So they laid their hands upon him and took him into custody.
47
However, a certain one of those standing by drew his sword and struck the slave
of the high priest and took his ear off.
48
But in response Jesus said to them: Did you come out with swords and clubs as
against a robber to arrest me?
49
Day after day I was with you in the temple teaching, and yet you did not take me
into custody. Nevertheless, it is in order that the Scriptures may be fulfilled.
50
And they all abandoned him and fled.
51
But a certain young man wearing a fine linen garment over his naked body began
to follow him nearby; and they tried to seize him,
52
but he left his linen garment behind and got away naked.
__________________________________________________________________________________________
53
They now led
Jesus
away to the
high/chief-priest, and all the
chief-priests
and the
older [ones] and the
scribes
assembled.
54
But
Peter, from afar, followed him
until the
courtyard
of the
chief-priest; and he was sitting together with the
subordinates
and warming
himself before the
light
[of the fire]. [8]
55 But the chief-priests and the whole Sanhedrin were looking for
testimony against Jesus to put
him to death, but they were not finding any.
56 Many, indeed, were testifying falsely
against him, but their testimonies were not in agreement.
57 Also, certain ones were rising and
testifying falsely against him, saying:
58 We heard him say, 'I will throw down this
temple that was hand-made and in 3 days I will build another not
hand-made.' [Jesus never said that.
Comparative but false scripture! He said break it down and I will rebuild it.
Jesus did not knock down the temple of Judaism. Caiaphas did that]
59 But neither on these [ grounds] was their
testimony agreeing.
60 Finally the chief/high-priest rose in their
midst and questioned Jesus, saying: Are you
answering nothing? What is it
these are testifying against you?
61 But he kept silent and answered nothing. Again the chief/high-priest began to question him and said to him: Are you the
Christ,
the Son of the Blessed One?
62 Then Jesus said: I am; and you will see the
Son of the
man sitting out of the right-hand [parts] of power
[power does not have any hands] and coming with [meta]
the clouds?? of heaven
[on a metaphorical cloud in
Matthew, with a literal cloud in Mark].
63 At this the chief/high-priest [Caiaphas] ripped his
inner-garments and said: What further
need do we have of witnesses?
64 You heard the blasphemy. What is evident to you? They all
condemned him to be liable to death.
65 And some started to spit on him and to
cover his face and clobber him and say to him: Prophesy! And, the
subordinates took him
in slaps (Mark 14).[24]

66
Now while
Peter
was below in the
courtyard, one of the
servant-girls
[partitive

of the
chief-priest
came,
67
and, seeing
Peter
warming himself, she looked straight at him and said: You,
too, were with the
Nazarene
[Nazarhnou
a noun according to Groves Wheeler, Mounce and Thayer], this
Jesus.
68
But he denied it, saying: Neither do I know him nor do I understand what you are
saying, and he went out [exhlqen]
outside [exw]
into [eij]
the
forecourt.

69
And the
servant-girl,
having seen him, started again to say to those
standing by: This is one of them.
70
Again he was denying it. And again after a little [while] those standing by
began saying to
Peter: Certainly you are one of them, for, in fact, you are a
Galilean [one].
71
But he commenced to curse and swear: I do not know this
man
of whom you speak.
72
And immediately a
cock
crowed a second [time]; and
Peter
recalled the
saying
as/that [wj]
said to him the Jesus: Before a

3-times. And
he broke down and was weeping. [13]

And
Pilate
asked him: Are you the
king
of the Jewish [ones] [Ioudaiwn]?
Answering him he said: You yourself say [it].
3
But the
chief-priests
proceeded to accuse him of many
[things].
4
Now
Pilate
began questioning him again, saying: Are you answering nothing? See
how many [things] they are bringing against you.
5
But
Jesus
still answered nothing, so that
Pilate
began to marvel.
6
According to
festival he used to release to them one
prisoner, whom
they petitioned for.
7
Now there was one called
Barabbas
having been bound with the
seditionists,
who had done
murder
in the
sedition.
8
So the
crowd
came on up and started to petition according to what he used
to do for them.
9
Pilate
responded to them, saying: Do you want me to release to you the
king
of
the Jewish [ones]?
10
For he was aware that due to
envy
the
chief-priests had handed him over.
11
But the
chief-priests
stirred up the
crowd
to have him release
Barabbas
to them,
instead.
12
But
Pilate,
answering again, was saying to them: What, then, shall I do with [one] whom
you call the
king
of the Jewish [ones] [Ioudaiwn]?
13
Once more they cried out: Impale him!
14
But
Pilate
went on to say to them: Why, what bad [thing] did he do? Still they
cried out all the more: Impale him!
15
And
Pilate, wishing to
do the satisfactory [thing] for the
crowd, released
Barabbas
to them, and having whipped
[him], he handed over
Jesus
to be impaled.

So they brought him to the

Here they tried to give him

It was but the 3rd

26
And the

Likewise [omoiwj]

after 3 days I am being raised up - Matthew 27:63] they came to the

the

had risen.
3
And they were saying one to another: Who will roll the

But when they looked up, they beheld that the
stone
had been rolled away,

[neaniskon]sitting on the
right clothed in a white

you are looking for,

____________________________________________________________________________________________________
Long Conclusion - Alexandrinus, Rescriptus, Bezae and some Latin versions have this - it is inspired. Mark and John will not count without it!!

Having risen early on the first [day] of the
Sabbath
[Partitive,
Sabbath means 7 here. 33Nisan16 he rose out of Hades as an angel to appear before
Jehovah and give him an angelic firstfruit wave offering]
he appeared first to
Mary, the Magdalene
[on the first
of the Sabbaths - plural - 33Nisan17], from whom he had expelled 7
demons.
10
She went and reported to those who had been with him, as they were mourning and
weeping.
11
But they, when they heard that he lived and had been viewed by her, did
not believe.
CNC = 4
INC Sabbath, Mary, Magdalene, Demons.
Mark 16:9-11 and John 20:11-18 are parallel. Totals in John.
So Jesus rose first to see his father, Jehovah and to offer his angelic body on 33Nisan16, then he was resurrected as a human and went to see his girlfriend, Mary on 33Nisan17. That is the right way round. Adam did it back to front!

Moreover, after these [things] he appeared in another
form
to 2 of them walking
along, as they were going into the
field [the
country, Emmaus actually];
13
and they came back and reported to the remaining [ones]. Neither did they believe these.

But later [usteroj]
he appeared to the 11 themselves as they were reclining, and he reproached their
faithlessness
and
hardheartedness, because they did not
believe those who had beheld him now raised up from the dead [ones].
15
And he said to them: Having gone into all the
world
preach the
good-news
to all
creation.
16
He that believes and is baptized will be saved, but he
[who has heard]
that does not believe
will be condemned.
17
These
signs
will follow those having
believed
[from the start]: By the use of my
name
they will expel
demons, they will speak
in/with
tongues [the
tongue is a metonym for a language],
18
and with their
hands they will
lift up/take away/remove [airw]
serpents
[of the offspring of vipers variety -
expelled through the laying on of the hands?], and if they drink anything
deadly it will not hurt them at all. They will lay their
hands
upon sick [ones], and these will become well.
CNC = 11
INC Faithlessness, Hardheartedness, World, Good-news, Creation, Signs, Name,
Demons, Tongues, Hands = 10
19 Therefore indeed, the Lord Jesus ['Jesus' is in the Alexandrinus but nothing else. Bezae, Scrivener Tischendorf and the Majority text have 'Lord' alone - They are all wrong!], after having spoken to them, was taken up to heaven and sat down out of right [parts] of God [as head of the 2nd Holy Spirit].
20 But these [ones], went out and preached everywhere, [upon] working with the Lord and [upon] following up the word through the accompanying signs.
Mark CNC = 11+6 = 17
Mark INC Faithlessness, Hardheartedness, World, Good-news, Creation, Signs, Name,
Demons, Tongues, Hands = 10, Lord, Jesus, Heaven, Word = 14
Matthew 28:16-20 and Mark 16:14-20 are parallel. Totals in Matthew.
So the Long conclusion of Mark only as recorded in the Alexandrinus is CANONICAL John 20 and Luke 24 and Matthew 28 ALL need it to count correctly and it provides a wonderful insight into how demons are expelled and into where the HQ of FDS1 ought to have been (Galilee not Jerusalem or Rome).
