THE PARABLE OF THE VINEYARD
And he begins to word to them in parables: A human plants a vineyard and sets a hedge around it and digs a winevat and builds a tower and leases it to cultivators and goes abroad: 2 and at the season he apostolizes a servant to the cultivators to take from the cultivators of the fruit of the vineyard: 3 and they take him and flog him and apostolize him away empty. 4 And again he apostolizes another servant to them: and they cast stones at him and strike him in the head; and apostolize him away dishonorably handled. 5 And again he apostolizes another: and they slaughter him - and many others; indeed flogging some and slaughtering some. 6 So still having one son - his wellbeloved, he finally also apostolizes him to them, wording, They respect my son. 7 But those cultivators say among themselves, This is the heir! Come! Slaughter him! And the inheritance becomes ours. 8 - and they take him and slaughter him and cast him from the vineyard. 9 So what does the adoni of the vineyard? He comes and destroys the cultivators and gives the vineyard to others. 10 And read you not this scripture; The stone the builders disapproved becomes the head of the corner: 11 this becomes of Yah Vah, and it is marvellous in our eyes? Psalm 118:22, 23 12
ATTEMPTS TO OVERPOWER YAH SHUA
And they seek to overpower him but awe the multitude: for they know he says the parable against them: and they forsake him, and go their way: 13 and they apostolize some of the Pharisees and of the Herodians to him, to catch him in his words. 14 And they come and word to him, Doctor, we know you are true, and concerned about no one: for you observe not the face of humanity, but doctrinate the way of Elohim in truth: Is it allowed to give tribute to the Kaisar? Or not? 15 For us to give? Or for us not to give? And knowing their hypocrisy, he says to them, Why test you me? Bring me a denarion, to see. 16 And they bring it - and he words to them, Whose is this icon and epigraph? And they say to him, Of the kaisar. 17 And Yah Shua answers them, saying, Give that of the Kaisar to the Kaisar, and that of Elohim to Elohim. - and they marvel at him. 18
YAH SHUA ASKED CONCERNING THE RESURRECTION
And the Sadoqiym come to him - who word there is no resurrection and they ask him, wording, 19 Doctor, Mosheh scribed to us, Whenever a brother dies, and leaves his woman, and leaves no children, his brother takes his woman and raises sperma to his brother: 20 there are seven brothers: and the first takes a woman, and dies leaving no sperma: 21 and the second takes her, and dies, and leaves no sperma: and the third likewise: 22 and the seven take her, and leave no sperma: finally the woman also dies: 23 so when they rise in the resurrection, whose woman is she of them? for the seven had her to woman. 24 And Yah Shua answers them, saying, So wander you not? Neither knowing the scriptures nor the dynamis of Elohim? 25 For when they rise from the dead, they neither marry nor are married off; but are as the angels in the heavens. 26 And concerning the dead, that they rise: read you not in the scroll of Mosheh, how, in the brier, Elohim said to him, wording, I am the Elohim of Abraham and the Elohim of Yischaq and the Elohim of Yaaqov? 27 He is not the Elohim of the dead, but the Elohim of the living: so you vastly wander. 28
THE GREATEST MISVAH
And one of the scribes comes and hears them disputing together; and perceiving that he answers them well, asks him, Which is the first misvah of all? 29 And Yah Shua answers him, The first of all the misvoth is, Hear, O Yisra El; Yah Veh our Elohim is one Yah Veh: 30 and, Love Yah Veh your Elohim with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength: this is the first misvah. 31 And the second is like, Love your neighbor as yourself. No other misvah is greater than these. Deuteronomy 6:4, 5, Leviticus 19:8 32 And the scribe says to him, Well, Doctor! You say the truth! For there is one Elohim; and there is no other but he. 33 and to love him with all the heart and with all the comprehension and with all the soul and with all the strength and to love his neighbor as himself is much more than all whole holocausts and sacrifices. 34 And Yah Shua sees that he answers mindfully, and says to him, You are not far from the sovereigndom of Elohim. - and after that no one dares ask him any question. 35
YAH SHUA ASKS THE PHARISEES
And doctrinating in the priestal precinct, Yah Shua answers, wording, How word the scribes that the Messiah is the son of David? 36 For David himself says in the Holy Spirit, An oracle of Yah Veh to my Adonay, Sit at my right until I establish your enemies the stool of your feet. 37 So David himself words him, Adonay; and whence is he so his son? - and the vast multitude hear him gladly. Psalm 110:1 38 And he words to them in his doctrine, Observe the scribes who will to walk in stoles and salutations in the markets 39 and the preeminent cathedras in the synagogues and the preeminent reposings at suppers 40 - who devour houses of widows and for a pretext make far out prayers: these take superabundant judgment. 41
THE OFFERING OF THE WIDOW
And Yah Shua sits in front of the treasury and observes how the multitude casts copper into the treasury - and many rich cast in much: 42 and a poor widow comes and puts in two leptons - being a quarter. 43 And he calls his disciples to him, and words to them, Amen! I word to you, That this poor widow casts in much more than they all cast into the treasury: 44 for they all cast in from their surplus; but she from her lack casts in all - as much as she has - even all her subsistence.
