Jesus

and whoever ensnares one of these little ones who trust me, it would be better for him to have a millstone hung around his neck and be drowned in the open sea!

See that you never despise one of these little ones, for I tell you that their angels in heaven are continually seeing the face of my Father in heaven.

For the Son of Man came to save the lost.

And if he happens to find it? Yes! I tell you he is happier over it than over the ninety-nine that never strayed!

Yes! I tell you people that whatever you prohibit on earth will be prohibited in heaven, and whatever you permit on earth will be permitted in heaven.

To repeat, I tell you that if two of you here on earth agree about anything people ask, it will be for them from my Father in heaven.

For wherever two or three are assembled in my name, I am there with them."

Then Kefa came up and said to him, "Rabbi, how often can my brother sin against me and I have to forgive him? As many as seven times?"

"No, not seven times," answered Yeshua, "but seventy times seven!

But the servant fell down before him. `Be patient with me,' he begged, `and I will pay back everything.'

This is how my heavenly Father will treat you, unless you each forgive your brother from your hearts."

When Yeshua had finished talking about these things, he left the Galil and traveled down the east side of the Yarden River until he passed the border of Y'hudah.

Great crowds followed him, and he healed them there.

Some P'rushim came and tried to trap him by asking, "Is it permitted for a man to divorce his wife on any ground whatever?"

He replied, "Haven't you read that at the beginning the Creator made them male and female,

They said to him, "Then why did Moshe give the commandment that a man should hand his wife a get and divorce her?"

Now what I say to you is that whoever divorces his wife, except on the ground of sexual immorality, and marries another woman commits adultery!"

The talmidim said to him, "If that is how things are between husband and wife, it would be better not to marry!"

He said to them, "Not everyone grasps this teaching, only those for whom it is meant.

Then children were brought to him so that he might lay his hands on them and pray for them, but the talmidim rebuked the people bringing them.

However, Yeshua said, "Let the children come to me, don't stop them, for the Kingdom of Heaven belongs to such as these."

Then, after laying his hands on them, he went on his way.

A man approached Yeshua and said, "Rabbi, what good thing should I do in order to have eternal life?" He said to him,

"Why are you asking me about good? There is One who is good! But if you want to obtain eternal life, observe the mitzvot."

The man asked him, "Which ones?" and Yeshua said, "Don't murder, don't commit adultery, don't steal, don't give false testimony
