The Gospel of Luke, conceived 91

In those days a certain man came up to Jesus, tempting Him and saying, "Good Teacher! What must I do to inherit eternal life? Jesus said to him, "Why do you call me good? no one is good but God alone; Thou knowest the commandments: Thou shalt not commit adultery, thou shalt not kill, thou shalt not steal, thou shalt not bear false witness, but thou shalt honour thy father and thy mother. And he said, All these things I have kept from my youth. When Jesus heard this, he said to him, "There is one more thing that you lack: all that you have, sell and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven, and come and follow me." And when he heard this, he was grieved, because he was very rich. Jesus, seeing that he was grieved, said, "How difficult it is for those who have riches to enter into the kingdom of God! for it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the Kingdom of God. Those who heard this said, "Who then can be saved?" But He said, "What is impossible for men is possible with God."

Week 30.

The Gospel of Luke, conceived 92

In those days, having called away His twelve disciples, He said to them, Behold, we are going up to Jerusalem, and all that is written through the prophets concerning the Son of Man will be fulfilled: for they will deliver Him up to the Gentiles, and mock Him, and insult Him, and spit on Him, and smite Him, and kill Him: and on the third day He will rise again. But they did not understand any of this; These words were hidden to them, and they did not understand what was said.

The Gospel of Luke, conceived 93

In those days, when Jesus was approaching Jericho, a blind man was sitting by the roadside, begging for alms, and hearing that the people were passing by him, he asked, "What is this?" He was told that Jesus of Nazareth was coming. Then he cried out, "Jesus, Son of David! have mercy on me. Those who walked ahead silenced him; but he cried out even louder: Son of David! have mercy on me. Jesus stopped, and commanded him to be brought to him: and when he came to him, he asked him, "What do you want from me?" He said: Lord! so that I can see. Jesus said to him, "See! Your faith has saved you. And immediately he received his sight and followed Him, glorifying God; and all the people, seeing this, gave praise to God.
