Jesus

The young man said to him, "I have kept all these; where do I still fall short?"

Yeshua said to him, "If you are serious about reaching the goal, go and sell your possessions, give to the poor, and you will have riches in heaven. Then come, follow me!"

Then Yeshua said to his talmidim, "Yes. I tell you that it will be very hard for a rich man to enter the Kingdom of Heaven.

Furthermore, I tell you that it is easier for a camel to pass through a needle's eye than for a rich man to enter the Kingdom of God."

When the talmidim heard this they were utterly amazed. "Then who," they asked, "can be saved?"

Yeshua looked at them and said, "Humanly, this is impossible; but with God everything is possible."

Kefa replied, "Look, we have left everything and followed you. So what will we have?"

Yeshua said to them, "Yes. I tell you that in the regenerated world, when the Son of Man sits on his glorious throne, you who have followed me will also sit on twelve thrones and judge the twelve tribes of Isra'el.

Everyone who has left houses, brothers, sisters, father, mother, children or fields for my sake will receive a hundred times more, and he will obtain eternal life.

As Yeshua was going up to Yerushalayim, he took the twelve talmidim aside by themselves and said to them, as they went on their way,

"We are now going up to Yerushalayim, where the Son of Man will be handed over to the head cohanim and Torah-teachers. They will sentence him to death

and turn him over to the Goyim, who will jeer at him, beat him and execute him on a stake as a criminal. But on the third day, he will be raised."

Then Zavdai's sons came to Yeshua with their mother. She bowed down, begging a favor from him.

He said to her, "What do you want?" She replied, "Promise that when you become king, these two sons of mine may sit, one on your right and the other on your left."

But Yeshua answered, "You people don't know what you are asking. Can you drink the cup that I am about to drink?" They said to him, "We can."

He said to them, "Yes, you will drink my cup. But to sit on my right and on my left is not mine to give, it is for those for whom my Father has prepared it."

But Yeshua called them and said, "You know that among the Goyim, those who are supposed to rule them become tyrants, and their superiors become dictators.

For the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve -- and to give his life as a ransom for many."

As they were leaving Yericho, a large crowd followed Yeshua.

Two blind men sitting by the side of the road heard that he was passing by and shouted, "Son of David! Have pity on us!"

The crowd scolded them and told them to be quiet, but they shouted all the louder, "Lord! Son of David! Have pity on us!"

Yeshua stopped, called them and said, "What do you want me to do for you?"

They said to him, "Lord, open our eyes."

Filled with tenderness, Yeshua touched their eyes; and instantly they received their sight and followed him.

As they were approaching Yerushalayim, they came to Beit-Pagei on the Mount of Olives. Yeshua sent two talmidim
