YAH SHUA, ADONAY OF THE SHABBATH
And so be it, on the second first shabbath, he goes through the spores; and his disciples pluck the kernels and eat rubbing them in their hands. 2 And some of the Pharisees say to them, Why do you what is not allowed to do on the shabbaths? 3 And Yah Shua answers them, saying, Read you not even this - what David and those with him did when he famished? 4 How he entered the house of Elohim and took and ate the prothesis bread; and also gave to them with him - which is not allowed to eat except for the priests alone? 1 Samuel 21:6 5
YAH SHUA RESTORES A WITHERED HAND
And he words to them, The Son of humanity is also Adonay of the shabbath. 6 And so be it, also on another shabbath, he enters the synagogue and doctrinates: and there is a human with a withered right hand: 7 and the scribes and Pharisees observe him whether he cures on the shabbath - to find an accusation against him. 8 But he knows their reasonings, and says to the human with the withered hand, Rise, and stand in the midst. - and he rises and stands. 9 So Yah Shua says to them, I ask you one: Is it allowed on the shabbaths to do good? Or to do evil? To save soul? Or to destroy? 10 And looking all round on them all, he says to the human, Spread your hand. - and he does thus: and his hand restores whole as the other. 11 And they fill full with mindlessness; and talk thoroughly one with another of what to do to Yah Shua. 12
YAH SHUA SELECTS TWELVE APOSTLES
And so be it, in those days, he goes to a mountain to pray, and continues all night in prayer to Elohim. 13 And being day, he calls his disciples to him: and he selects twelve of them whom also he names apostles: 14 Shimon, whom he also named Petros and Andreas his brother, Yaaqovos and Yahn, Phillipos and Bar Talmay, 15 Matthaios and Taom, Yaaqovos of Heleph and Shimon called the Zealot 16 and Yah Hudah of Yaaqovos and Yah Hudah the urbanite - who also becomes traitor. 17 And he descends with them and stands on a level place: and the multitude of his disciples and a vast multitude of people from all Yah Hudah and Yeru Shalem and from the sea coast of Sor and Sidon come to hear him and to be healed of their diseases: 18 and those vexed by impure spirits are cured: 19 and the whole multitude seeks to touch him: for dynamis comes from him and heals them all. 20
THE BEATITUDES
And he lifts his eyes on his disciples, and words, Blessed - the poor: for yours is the sovereigndom of Elohim. 21 Blessed - who now famish: for you fill. Blessed - who now weep: for you laugh. 22 Blessed - you, whenever humanity hates you and whenever they set you apart and reproach you and cast out your name as evil for sake of the Son of humanity. 23 Cheer in that day and leap for joy! For behold, your reward in the heavens is vast: for in the like manner their fathers did to the prophets. 24
THE WOES
But woe to you, the rich: for you received your consolation in full; 25 woe to you the filled: for you famish; woe to you who now laugh: for you mourn and weep; 26 woe to you whenever all humanity says well of you: for in like manner their fathers did to the pseudo prophets. 27
YAH SHUA ON LOVING ENEMIES
But I word to you who hear: Love your enemies; do well to them who hate you; 28 eulogize them who curse you; and pray for them who threaten you; 29 and to whoever strikes you on the cheek, present also the other: and to whoever takes away your garment, forbid not also your tunic; 30 give to everyone who asks of you; and of him who takes away your goods demand not; 31 and exactly as you will that humanity do to you, do you also to them likewise. 32 For if you love them who love you, what charism is yours? - for sinners also love those who love them: 33 and whenever you do good to them who do good to you, what charism is yours? - for even sinners also do the same: 34 and whenever you lend from whom you hope to take, what charism is yours? - for sinners also lend to sinners to take equal. 35 But love your enemies and do good and lend, hoping for naught again; and vast is your reward and you become the sons of Elyon: - for he is kind to the uneucharistic and to the evil. 36 So be compassionate exactly as your Father also is compassionate. 37
YAH SHUA ON JUDGING OTHERS
Judge not; that you never no way be judged: condemn not; that you never no way be condemned: forgive; and be forgiven: 38 give; and be given: good measure, packed and shaken, and overflowing, men give into your bosom: for the measure you measure is remeasured to you. 39 And he says a parable to them, Can the blind guide the blind? Indeed fall they not both into the cistern? 40 The disciple is not above his doctor: but everyone who prepares is as his doctor. 41 And why see you the twig in the eye of your brother but perceive not the beam in your own eye? 42 Or, how can you word to your brother, Brother, allow me to cast out the twig in your eye when you yourself see not the beam in your own eye? Hypocrite! First cast the beam from your own eye; and then you see clearly to cast the twig in the eye of your brother. 43
YAH SHUA ON TREES AND FRUIT
For neither a good tree produces putrefied fruit; nor a putrefied tree produces good fruit: 44 for each tree is known by its own fruit. For men neither gather figs of thorns, nor dry grapes of a brier. 45 A good human from the good treasure of his heart produces good; and an evil human from the evil treasure of his heart produces evil: for his mouth speaks from the super abundance of the heart. 46 And why call you me, Adonay, Adonay, and do not what I word? 47
YAH SHUA ON FOUNDATIONS
Whoever comes to me and hears my words and does them - I exemplify you to whom he is likened: 48 he is likened to a human who builds a house and digs deep and places the foundation on a rock: and a flood becomes and the stream bursts on that house and cannot shake it for it is founded on a rock. 49 And whoever hears, and does not, is likened to a human who builds a house on the earth apart from a foundation - upon which the stream bursts and straightway it falls; and the fragmentation of that house becomes mega.
