And when they had crossed over, they came 34 to the land, unto Gennesaret. And when the 35 men of that place knew him, they sent into all that region round about, and brought unto him all that were sick; and they besought him 36 that they might only touch the border of his garment and as many as touched were made whole. 2 4 Then there come to Jesus from Jerusalem15 Pharisees and scribes, saying, Why do thy disciples transgress the tradition of the elders? for they wash not their hands when they eat bread. And he answered and said unto them, Why do ye also transgress the commandment of God because of your tradition? For God said, Honour thy father and thy mother: and, He that speaketh evil of father or mother, let 'Or, surely die him 'die the death..

And he said, Are ye also even yet without understanding? 17 Perceive ye not, that whatsoever goeth into the mouth passeth into the belly, and is 18 cast out into the draught? But the things which proceed out of the mouth come forth out 19 of the heart; and they defile the man.

And behold, a Canaanitish woman came out from those borders, and cried, saying, Have mercy on me, O Lord, thou son of David; my daugh23 ter is grievously vexed with a 'devil. But he Gr. demon. answered her not a word. And his disciples came and besought him, saying, Send her 24 away; for she crieth after us.

But she 1 Or, loaf came and worshipped him, saying, Lord, help And Jesus departed thence, and came nigh 29 unto the sea of Galilee; and he went up into the mountain, and sat there. And there came 30 unto him great multitudes, having with them the lame, blind, dumb, maimed, and many others, and they cast them down at his feet; and he healed them: insomuch that the multi- 31 tude wondered, when they saw the dumb speaking, the maimed whole, and the lame walking, and the blind seeing: and they glorified the God of Israel. And Jesus called unto him his disciples, 32 and said, I have compassion on the multitude, because they continue with me now three days and have nothing to eat: and I would not send them away fasting, lest haply they faint in the way. And the disciples say unto him, Whence 33 should we have so many loaves in a desert place, as to fill so great a multitude? And 3+ Jesus saith unto them, How many loaves have ye? And they said, Seven, and a few small fishes. And he commanded the multitude to 35 sit down on the ground; and he took the 36 seven loaves and the fishes; and he gave thanks and brake, and gave to the disciples, and the disciples to the multitudes. And they 37 did all eat, and were filled: and they took up that which remained over of the broken pieces, seven baskets full. And they that did eat 38 were four thousand men, beside women and 39 children. And he sent away the multitudes, and entered into the boat, and came into the borders of Magadan. 16 And the Pharisees and Sadducees came, and by some of the tempting him asked him to shew them a sign 2 from heaven.

Luke ix. 18. "Many ancient authorities read that I man am. See 1 Gr. Petros. 2 Gr. petra. 3 Some ancient authorities read Jesus Christ.
