John came baptizing 4 in the wilderness and preaching the baptism of repentance for forgiveness of sins. Act 19:3-4Mat 3:6Act 13:24-25Jhn 3:23Act 22:16Luk 1:77Luk 3:2-3Mat 3:1-2 All the country of Judea and all those of Jerusalem went out to him. They were baptized by him in the Jordan river, confessing their sins. Act 19:18Lev 26:40-42Act 2:38Mat 3:5-61Jn 1:8-10Jhn 1:28Jhn 3:23Jos 7:19 John was clothed with camel’s hair and a leather belt around his waist. He ate locusts and wild honey. 2Ki 1:8Lev 11:22Mat 3:4Zec 13:4 He preached, saying, “After me comes he who is mightier than I, the strap of whose sandals I am not worthy to stoop down and loosen. Act 13:25Luk 3:16Jhn 1:27Mat 3:11Jhn 3:28-31Luk 7:6-7Mat 3:14 I baptized you in 5 water, but he will baptize you in the Holy Spirit.” Act 1:51Co 12:13Act 19:4-6Act 10:45Act 11:15-16Act 2:4Jol 2:28Ezk 36:25-27
In those days, Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was baptized by John in the Jordan. Mat 2:23Mat 3:13-17Luk 3:21-22 Immediately coming up from the water, he saw the heavens parting and the Spirit descending on him like a dove. Jhn 1:31-34Luk 3:22Isa 42:1Isa 64:1Mat 3:16 A voice came out of the sky, “You are my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.” Isa 42:1Mrk 9:7Mat 3:17Psa 2:7Col 1:132Pe 1:17-18Jhn 12:28-30Jhn 3:16
Immediately the Spirit drove him out into the wilderness. Mat 4:1-11Luk 4:1-13 He was there in the wilderness forty days, tempted by Satan. He was with the wild animals; and the angels were serving him. Heb 2:17-18Heb 4:15Exo 34:28Mat 26:531Ki 19:5-8Deu 9:11Deu 9:18Deu 9:25
Now after John was taken into custody, Jesus came into Galilee, preaching the Good News of God’s Kingdom, Mat 4:23Mat 4:12Luk 8:1Mat 9:35Eph 2:17Isa 61:1-3Act 28:23Luk 4:17-19 and saying, “The time is fulfilled, and God’s Kingdom is at hand! Repent, and believe in the Good News.” Mat 3:2Mat 4:17Act 2:36-38Act 20:21Eph 1:10Gal 4:4Mat 10:7Dan 2:44
Passing along by the sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and Andrew, the brother of Simon, casting a net into the sea, for they were fishermen. Mat 4:18-22Jhn 1:40-42Jhn 6:8Luk 6:14Act 1:13Jhn 12:22Luk 5:1-11Mat 10:2 Jesus said to them, “Come after me, and I will make you into fishers for men.” Luk 5:10Mat 4:19-20Act 2:38-41Ezk 47:10
Immediately they left their nets, and followed him. Luk 14:33Luk 18:28-30Luk 5:11Mat 19:27-30Mrk 10:28-31Php 3:8
Going on a little further from there, he saw James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother, who were also in the boat mending the nets. Act 1:13Act 12:2Mat 4:21Mrk 10:35Mrk 14:33Mrk 3:17Mrk 5:37Mrk 9:2 Immediately he called them, and they left their father, Zebedee, in the boat with the hired servants, and went after him. Luk 14:26Mat 10:37Mrk 10:291Ki 19:202Co 5:16Mat 4:21-22Mat 8:21-22Deu 33:9
They went into Capernaum, and immediately on the Sabbath day he entered into the synagogue and taught. Mrk 6:2Mrk 1:39Mat 4:23Act 13:14-52Act 17:2Act 18:4Mat 4:13Luk 10:15 They were astonished at his teaching, for he taught them as having authority, and not as the scribes. Mat 7:28-29Mat 13:54Luk 4:32Act 6:10Jer 23:29Jhn 7:46Luk 21:152Co 4:2 Immediately there was in their synagogue a man with an unclean spirit, and he cried out, Mrk 9:25Luk 4:33-37Mat 12:43Mrk 1:34Mrk 5:2Mrk 7:25 saying, “Ha! What do we have to do with you, Jesus, you Nazarene? Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are: the Holy One of God!” Jas 2:19Mat 8:29Act 3:14Luk 4:34Rev 3:7Act 2:27Luk 8:28Mrk 5:7
Jesus rebuked him, saying, “Be quiet, and come out of him!” Mrk 1:34Act 16:17Luk 4:41Mrk 3:11-12Mrk 9:25Luk 4:35Psa 50:16
The unclean spirit, convulsing him and crying with a loud voice, came out of him. Mrk 9:26Mrk 9:20Luk 11:22Luk 9:39Luk 9:42 They were all amazed, so that they questioned among themselves, saying, “What is this? What can this new doctrine be? For with authority he commands even the unclean spirits, and they obey him!” Luk 9:1Mat 15:31Mrk 7:37Luk 4:36Mat 9:33Mat 12:22-23Mrk 10:24Mrk 10:32 The report of him went out immediately into all the region of Galilee and its surrounding area. Luk 4:37Mat 9:31Luk 4:17Mat 4:24Mic 5:4Mrk 1:45
Immediately, when they had come out of the synagogue, they came into the house of Simon and Andrew, with James and John. Mat 8:14-15Luk 4:38-39Mrk 1:21Luk 9:58Mrk 1:23 Now Simon’s wife’s mother lay sick with a fever, and immediately they told him about her. 1Co 9:5Jas 5:14-15Jhn 11:3Mrk 5:23 He came and took her by the hand and raised her up. The fever left her immediately, 6 and she served them. Act 9:41Luk 8:2-3Mrk 5:41Psa 103:1-3Psa 116:12Mrk 15:41Mat 27:55
At evening, when the sun had set, they brought to him all who were sick and those who were possessed by demons. Mat 8:16Luk 4:40Mat 4:24Mrk 3:2Mrk 1:21 All the city was gathered together at the door. Act 13:44Mrk 1:5 He healed many who were sick with various diseases and cast out many demons. He didn’t allow the demons to speak, because they knew him. Luk 4:41Mrk 3:12Act 16:16-18Mat 4:23Mrk 1:25
Early in the morning, while it was still dark, he rose up and went out, and departed into a deserted place, and prayed there. Luk 6:12Luk 5:16Luk 22:39-46Eph 6:18Psa 5:3Jhn 6:15Heb 5:7Mat 14:23 Simon and those who were with him searched for him. They found him and told him, “Everyone is looking for you.” Jhn 12:19Jhn 11:48Jhn 3:26Mrk 1:5Zec 11:11
He said to them, “Let’s go elsewhere into the next towns, that I may preach there also, because I came out for this reason.” Luk 4:43Isa 61:1-3Jhn 17:8Jhn 16:28Jhn 17:4Luk 2:49Luk 4:18-21Jhn 9:4 He went into their synagogues throughout all Galilee, preaching and casting out demons. Mat 4:23Mrk 1:21Luk 4:41Luk 4:43-44Mrk 7:30
A leper came to him, begging him, kneeling down to him, and saying to him, “If you want to, you can make me clean.” Luk 5:12-14Mat 8:2-4Lev 13:1-142Sa 3:29Mat 17:14Mrk 9:22-23Deu 24:8-9Mrk 10:17
Being moved with compassion, he stretched out his hand, and touched him, and said to him, “I want to. Be made clean.” Mat 9:36Heb 2:17Heb 4:15Luk 7:12-13Mrk 5:41Mrk 6:34Gen 1:3Heb 1:3 When he had said this, immediately the leprosy departed from him and he was made clean. Jhn 15:3Jhn 4:50-53Mat 15:28Mrk 1:31Mrk 5:29Psa 33:9 He strictly warned him and immediately sent him out, Mat 9:30Luk 8:56Mrk 3:12Mrk 5:43Mrk 7:36 and said to him, “See that you say nothing to anybody, but go show yourself to the priest and offer for your cleansing the things which Moses commanded, for a testimony to them.” Lev 14:1-32Luk 17:14Mat 8:41Co 10:11Luk 5:14Rom 15:4Mat 23:2-3
But he went out, and began to proclaim it much, and to spread about the matter, so that Jesus could no more openly enter into a city, but was outside in desert places. People came to him from everywhere. Mat 9:31Mrk 2:13Jhn 6:2Luk 5:15-17Psa 77:11Mat 28:15Mrk 2:1-2Mrk 3:7
