JUBILEES 6

1. But if they do NEGLECT and do NOT observe them according to His commandment, then they will disturb all their seasons and the years will be dislodged from this (order), [and they will disturb the seasons and the years will be dislodged] and they will neglect their ordinances.
2. And all the children of Israel will forget and will not find the path of the years, and will forget the new moons, and seasons, and sabbaths and they will go wrong as to all the order of the years.
3. For I know and from henceforth will I declare it unto thee, and it is not of my own devising; for the book written before me, and on the heavenly tablets the division of days is ordained, lest they forget the feasts of the covenant and walk according to the feasts of the Gentiles after their error and after their ignorance.
4. For there will be those who will assuredly make observations of the moon -how (it) disturbs the seasons and comes in from year to year ten days too soon.
5. For this reason the years will come upon them when they will disturb (the order), and make an abominable (day) the day of testimony, and an unclean day a feast day, and they will confound all the days, the holy with the unclean, and the unclean day with the holy; for they will go wrong as to the months and sabbaths and feasts and jubilees.
6. For this reason I command and testify to thee that thou mayst testify to them; for after thy death thy children will disturb (them), so that they will not make the year three hundred and sixty-four (364) days only, and for this reason they will go wrong as to the new moons and seasons and sabbaths and festivals, and they will eat all kinds of blood with all kinds of flesh.

Exodus 18:

13 And it came to pass on the morrow, that Moses sat to judge the people: and the people stood by Moses from the morning unto the evening.

14 And when Moses' father in law saw all that he did to the people, he said, What is this thing that thou doest to the people? why sittest thou thyself alone, and all the people stand by thee from morning unto even?

15 And Moses said unto his father in law, Because the people come unto me to enquire of God:

16 When they have a matter, they come unto me; and I judge between one and another, and I do make them know the statutes of God, and his laws.

17 And Moses' father in law said unto him, The thing that thou doest is not good.

18 Thou wilt surely wear away, both thou, and this people that is with thee: for this thing is too heavy for thee; thou art not able to perform it thyself alone.

19 Hearken now unto my voice, I will give thee counsel, and God shall be with thee: Be thou for the people to God-ward, that thou mayest bring the causes unto God:

20 And thou shalt teach them ordinances and laws, and shalt shew them the way wherein they must walk, and the work that they must do.

21 Moreover thou shalt provide out of all the people able men, such as fear God, men of truth, hating covetousness; and place such over them, to be rulers of thousands, and rulers of hundreds, rulers of fifties, and rulers of tens:

22 And let them judge the people at all seasons: and it shall be, that every great matter they shall bring unto thee, (Moses) but every small matter they shall judge: so shall it be easier for thyself, and they shall bear the burden with thee.

23 If thou shalt do this thing, and God command thee so, then thou shalt be able to endure, and all this people shall also go to their place in peace.

24 So Moses hearkened to the voice of his father in law, and did all that he had said.

25 And Moses chose able men out of all Israel, and made them heads over the people, rulers of thousands, rulers of hundreds, rulers of fifties, and rulers of tens.

25 Whereof I am made a minister, according to the dispensation of God which is given to me for you, to fulfil the word of God;

22 And let them judge the people at all seasons: and it shall be, that every great matter they shall bring unto thee, (Moses) but every small matter they shall judge: so shall it be easier for thyself, and they shall bear the burden with thee.

23 If thou shalt do this thing, and God command thee so, then thou shalt be able to endure, and all this people shall also go to their place in peace.

24 So Moses hearkened to the voice of his father in law, and did all that he had said.

25 And Moses chose able men out of all Israel, and made them heads over the people, rulers of thousands, rulers of hundreds, rulers of fifties, and rulers of tens.

26 And they judged the people at all seasons: the hard causes they brought unto Moses, but every small matter they judged themselves.

27 And Moses let his father in law depart; and he went his way into his own land.

 

 

Deuteronomy 4:

1 Now therefore hearken, O Israel, unto the statutes and unto the judgments, which I teach you, for to do them, that ye may live, and go in and possess the land which the Lord God of your fathers giveth you.

2 Ye shall not add unto the word which I command you, neither shall ye diminish ought from it, that ye may keep the commandments of the Lord your God which I command you.

3 Your eyes have seen what the Lord did because of Baalpeor: for all the men that followed Baalpeor, the Lord thy God hath destroyed them from among you.

4 But ye that did cleave unto the Lord your God are alive every one of you this day.

5 Behold, I have taught you statutes and judgments, even as the Lord my God commanded me, that ye should do so in the land whither ye go to possess it.

6 Keep therefore and do them; for this is your wisdom and your understanding in the sight of the nations, which shall hear all these statutes, and say, Surely this great nation is a wise and understanding people.

7 For what nation is there so great, who hath God so nigh unto them, as the Lord our God is in all things that we call upon him for?

8 And what nation is there so great, that hath statutes and judgments so righteous as all this law, which I set before you this day?

9 Only take heed to thyself, and keep thy soul diligently, lest thou forget the things which thine eyes have seen, and lest they depart from thy heart all the days of thy life: but teach them thy sons, and thy sons' sons;

10 Specially the day that thou stoodest before the Lord thy God in Horeb, when the Lord said unto me, Gather me the people together, and I will make them hear my words, that they may learn to fear me all the days that they shall live upon the earth, and that they may teach their children.

11 And ye came near and stood under the mountain; and the mountain burned with fire unto the midst of heaven, with darkness, clouds, and thick darkness.

12 And the Lord spake unto you out of the midst of the fire: ye heard the voice of the words, but saw no similitude; only ye heard a voice.

13 And he declared unto you his covenant, which he commanded you to perform, even ten commandments; and he wrote them upon two tables of stone.

14 And the Lord commanded me at that time to teach you statutes and judgments, that ye might do them in the land whither ye go over to possess it.

15 Take ye therefore good heed unto yourselves; for ye saw no manner of similitude on the day that the Lord spake unto you in Horeb out of the midst of the fire:

16 Lest ye corrupt yourselves, and make you a graven image, the similitude of any figure, the likeness of male or female,

17 The likeness of any beast that is on the earth, the likeness of any winged fowl that flieth in the air,

18 The likeness of any thing that creepeth on the ground, the likeness of any fish that is in the waters beneath the earth:

19 And lest thou lift up thine eyes unto heaven, and when thou seest the sun, and the moon, and the stars, even all the host of heaven, shouldest be driven to worship them, and serve them, which the Lord thy God hath divided unto all nations under the whole heaven.

20 But the Lord hath taken you, and brought you forth out of the iron furnace, even out of Egypt, to be unto him a people of inheritance, as ye are this day.

21 Furthermore the Lord was angry with me for your sakes, and sware that I should not go over Jordan, and that I should not go in unto that good land, which the Lord thy God giveth thee for an inheritance:

22 But I must die in this land, I must not go over Jordan: but ye shall go over, and possess that good land.

23 Take heed unto yourselves, lest ye forget the covenant of the Lord your God, which he made with you, and make you a graven image, or the likeness of any thing, which the Lord thy God hath forbidden thee.

24 For the Lord thy God is a consuming fire, even a jealous God.

25 When thou shalt beget children, and children's children, and ye shall have remained long in the land, and shall corrupt yourselves, and make a graven image, or the likeness of any thing, and shall do evil in the sight of the Lord thy God, to provoke him to anger:

26 I call heaven and earth to witness against you this day, that ye shall soon utterly perish from off the land whereunto ye go over Jordan to possess it; ye shall not prolong your days upon it, but shall utterly be destroyed.

27 And the Lord shall scatter you among the nations, and ye shall be left few in number among the heathen, whither the Lord shall lead you.

28 And there ye shall serve gods, the work of men's hands, wood and stone, which neither see, nor hear, nor eat, nor smell.

29 But if from thence thou shalt seek the Lord thy God, thou shalt find him, if thou seek him with all thy heart and with all thy soul.

30 When thou art in tribulation, and all these things are come upon thee, even in the latter days, if thou turn to the Lord thy God, and shalt be obedient unto his voice;

31 (For the Lord thy God is a merciful God;) he will not forsake thee, neither destroy thee, nor forget the covenant of thy fathers which he sware unto them.

32 For ask now of the days that are past, which were before thee, since the day that God created man upon the earth, and ask from the one side of heaven unto the other, whether there hath been any such thing as this great thing is, or hath been heard like it?

33 Did ever people hear the voice of God speaking out of the midst of the fire, as thou hast heard, and live?

34 Or hath God assayed to go and take him a nation from the midst of another nation, by temptations, by signs, and by wonders, and by war, and by a mighty hand, and by a stretched out arm, and by great terrors, according to all that the Lord your God did for you in Egypt before your eyes?

35 Unto thee it was shewed, that thou mightest know that the Lord he is God; there is none else beside him.

36 Out of heaven he made thee to hear his voice, that he might instruct thee: and upon earth he shewed thee his great fire; and thou heardest his words out of the midst of the fire.

37 And because he loved thy fathers, therefore he chose their seed after them, and brought thee out in his sight with his mighty power out of Egypt;

38 To drive out nations from before thee greater and mightier than thou art, to bring thee in, to give thee their land for an inheritance, as it is this day.

39 Know therefore this day, and consider it in thine heart, that the Lord he is God in heaven above, and upon the earth beneath: there is none else.

40 Thou shalt keep therefore his statutes, and his commandments, which I command thee this day, that it may go well with thee, and with thy children after thee, and that thou mayest prolong thy days upon the earth, which the Lord thy God giveth thee, for ever.

41 Then Moses severed three cities on this side Jordan toward the sunrising;

42 That the slayer might flee thither, which should kill his neighbour unawares, and hated him not in times past; and that fleeing unto one of these cities he might live:

43 Namely, Bezer in the wilderness, in the plain country, of the Reubenites; and Ramoth in Gilead, of the Gadites; and Golan in Bashan, of the Manassites.

44 And this is the law which Moses set before the children of Israel:

45 These are the testimonies, and the statutes, and the judgments, which Moses spake unto the children of Israel, after they came forth out of Egypt.

46 On this side Jordan, in the valley over against Bethpeor, in the land of Sihon king of the Amorites, who dwelt at Heshbon, whom Moses and the children of Israel smote, after they were come forth out of Egypt:

47 And they possessed his land, and the land of Og king of Bashan, two kings of the Amorites, which were on this side Jordan toward the sunrising;

48 From Aroer, which is by the bank of the river Arnon, even unto mount Sion, which is Hermon,

49 And all the plain on this side Jordan eastward, even unto the sea of the plain, under the springs of Pisgah.

JUBILEES 6

Sacrifice of Noah, 1-3 (cf. Gen. vii.20-2). God's convenant with Noah, eating of blood forbidden, 4-10 (cf. Gen. ix. 1-17). Moses bidden to renew this law against the eating of blood, 11-14. Bow set in the clouds for a sign, 15-16. Feast of weeks instituted, history of its observances, 17-22. Feast of the new moons, 23-8. Division of the year into 364 days, 29-38.

[Chapter 6]

1. And on the new moon of the third month he went forth from the ark, and built an altar on that mountain.
2. And he made atonement for the earth, and took a kid and made atonement by its blood for all the guilt of the earth; for everything that had been on it had been destroyed, save those that were in the ark with Noah.
3. And he placed the fat thereof on the altar, and he took an ox, and a goat, and a sheep and kids, and salt, and a turtle-dove, and the young of a dove, and placed a burnt sacrifice on the altar, and poured thereon an offering mingled with oil, and sprinkled wine and strewed frankincense over everything, and caused a goodly savour to arise, acceptable before the Lord.
4. And the Lord smelt the goodly savour, and He made a covenant with him that there should not be any more a flood to destroy the earth; that all the days of the earth seed-time and harvest should never cease; cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night should not change their order, nor cease for ever.
5. 'And you, increase ye and multiply upon the earth, and become many upon it, and be a blessing upon it. The fear of you and the dread of you I will inspire in everything that is on earth and in the sea.
6. And behold I have given unto you all beasts, and all winged things, and everything that moves on the earth, and the fish in the waters, and all things for food; as the green herbs, I have given you all things to eat.
7. But flesh, with the life thereof, with the blood, ye shall not eat; for the life of all flesh is in the blood, lest your blood of your lives be required. At the hand of every man, at the hand of every (beast) will I require the blood of man.
8. Whoso sheddeth man's blood by man shall his blood be shed, for in the image of God made He man.
9. And you, increase ye, and multiply on the earth.'
10. And Noah and his sons swore that they would not eat any blood that was in any flesh, and he made a covenant before the Lord God for ever throughout all the generations of the earth in this month.
11. On this account He spake to thee that thou shouldst make a covenant with the children of Israel in this month upon the mountain with an oath, and that thou shouldst sprinkle blood upon them because of all the words of the covenant, which the Lord made with them for ever.
12. And this testimony is written concerning you that you should observe it continually, so that you should not eat on any day any blood of beasts or birds or cattle during all the days of the earth, and the man who eats the blood of beast or of cattle or of birds during all the days of the earth, he and his seed shall be rooted out of the land.
13. And do thou command the children of Israel to eat no blood, so that their names and their seed may be before the Lord our God continually.
14. And for this law there is no limit of days, for it is for ever. They shall observe it throughout their generations, so that they may continue supplicating on your behalf with blood before the altar; every day and at the time of morning and evening they shall seek forgiveness on your behalf perpetually before the Lord that they may keep it and not be rooted out.
15. And He gave to Noah and his sons a sign that there should not again be a flood on the earth.
16. He set His bow in the cloud for a sign of the eternal covenant that there should not again be a flood on the earth to destroy it all the days of the earth.
17. For this reason it is ordained and written on the heavenly tablets, that they should celebrate the feast of weeks in this month once a year, to renew the covenant every year.
18. And this whole festival was celebrated in heaven from the day of creation till the days of Noah -twenty-six jubilees and five weeks of years [1309-1659 A.M.]: and Noah and his sons observed it for seven jubilees and one week of years, till the day of Noah's death, and from the day of Noah's death his sons did away with (it) until the days of Abraham, and they eat blood.
19. But Abraham observed it, and Isaac and Jacob and his children observed it up to thy days, and in thy days the children of Israel forgot it until ye celebrated it anew on this mountain.
20. And do thou command the children of Israel to observe this festival in all their generations for a commandment unto them: one day in the year in this month they shall celebrate the festival.
21. For it is the feast of weeks and the feast of first fruits: this feast is twofold and of a double nature: according to what is written and engraven concerning it, celebrate it.
22. For I have written in the book of the first law, in that which I have written for thee, that thou shouldst celebrate it in its season, one day in the year, and I explained to thee its sacrifices that the children of Israel should remember and should celebrate it throughout their generations in this month, one day in every year.
23. And on the new moon of the first month, and on the new moon of the fourth month, and on the new moon of the seventh month, and on the new moon of the tenth month are the days of remembrance, and the days of the seasons in the four divisions of the year. These are written and ordained as a testimony for ever.
24. And Noah ordained them for himself as feasts for the generations for ever, so that they have become thereby a memorial unto him.
25. And on the new moon of the first month he was bidden to make for himself an ark, and on that (day) the earth became dry and he opened (the ark) and saw the earth.
26. And on the new moon of the fourth month the mouths of the depths of the abyss beneath were closed. And on the new moon of the seventh month all the mouths of the abysses of the earth were opened, and the waters began to descend into them.
27. And on the new moon of the tenth month the tops of the mountains were seen, and Noah was glad.
28. And on this account he ordained them for himself as feasts for a memorial for ever, and thus are they ordained.
29. And they placed them on the heavenly tablets, each had thirteen weeks; from one to another (passed) their memorial, from the first to the second, and from the second to the third, and from the third to the fourth.
30. And all the days of the commandment will be two and fifty weeks of days (52 weeks), and (these will make) the entire year complete. Thus it is engraven and ordained on the heavenly tablets.
31. And there is no neglecting (this commandment) for a single year or from year to year.
32. And command thou the children of Israel that they observe the years according to this reckoning- three hundred and sixty-four days (364 days), and (these) will constitute a complete year, and they will not disturb its time from its days and from its feasts; for everything will fall out in them according to their testimony, and they will not leave out any day nor disturb any feasts.
33. But if they do neglect and do not observe them according to His commandment, then they will disturb all their seasons and the years will be dislodged from this (order), [and they will disturb the seasons and the years will be dislodged] and they will neglect their ordinances.
34. And all the children of Israel will forget and will not find the path of the years, and will forget the new moons, and seasons, and sabbaths and they will go wrong as to all the order of the years.
35. For I know and from henceforth will I declare it unto thee, and it is not of my own devising; for the book written before me, and on the heavenly tablets the division of days is ordained, lest they forget the feasts of the covenant and walk according to the feasts of the Gentiles after their error and after their ignorance.
36. For there will be those who will assuredly make observations of the moon -how (it) disturbs the seasons and comes in from year to year ten days too soon.
37. For this reason the years will come upon them when they will disturb (the order), and make an abominable (day) the day of testimony, and an unclean day a feast day, and they will confound all the days, the holy with the unclean, and the unclean day with the holy; for they will go wrong as to the months and sabbaths and feasts and jubilees.
38. For this reason I command and testify to thee that thou mayst testify to them; for after thy death thy children will disturb (them), so that they will not make the year three hundred and sixty-four (364) days only, and for this reason they will go wrong as to the new moons and seasons and sabbaths and festivals, and they will eat all kinds of blood with all kinds of flesh.

Mattthew 26:

1  And it came to pass, when Jesus had finished all these sayings, he said unto his disciples,

2 Ye know that after two days is the feast of the passover, and the Son of man is betrayed to be crucified.

3 Then assembled together the chief priests, and the scribes, and the elders of the people, unto the palace of the high priest, who was called Caiaphas,

4 And consulted that they might take Jesus by subtilty, and kill him.

5 But they said, Not on the feast day, lest there be an uproar among the people.

6 Now when Jesus was in Bethany, in the house of Simon the leper,

7 There came unto him a woman having an alabaster box of very precious ointment, and poured it on his head, as he sat at meat.

8 But when his disciples saw it, they had indignation, saying, To what purpose is this waste?

9 For this ointment might have been sold for much, and given to the poor.

10 When Jesus understood it, he said unto them, Why trouble ye the woman? for she hath wrought a good work upon me.

11 For ye have the poor always with you; but me ye have not always.

12 For in that she hath poured this ointment on my body, she did it for my burial.

13 Verily I say unto you, Wheresoever this gospel shall be preached in the whole world, there shall also this, that this woman hath done, be told for a memorial of her.

14 Then one of the twelve, called Judas Iscariot, went unto the chief priests,

15 And said unto them, What will ye give me, and I will deliver him unto you? And they covenanted with him for thirty pieces of silver.

16 And from that time he sought opportunity to betray him.

17 Now the first day of the feast of unleavened bread (????? Passover comes before the feast of unleavened bread) the disciples came to Jesus, saying unto him, Where wilt thou that we prepare for thee to eat the passover?

18 And he said, Go into the city to such a man, and say unto him, The Master saith, My time is at hand; I will keep the passover at thy house with my disciples.

19 And the disciples did as Jesus had appointed them; and they made ready the passover.

20 Now when the even was come,(Passover) he sat down with the twelve.

21 And as they did eat, he said, Verily I say unto you, that one of you shall betray me.

22 And they were exceeding sorrowful, and began every one of them to say unto him, Lord, is it I?

23 And he answered and said, He that dippeth his hand with me in the dish, the same shall betray me.

24 The Son of man goeth as it is written of him: but woe unto that man by whom the Son of man is betrayed! it had been good for that man if he had not been born.

25 Then Judas, which betrayed him, answered and said, Master, is it I? He said unto him, Thou hast said.

26 And as they were eating, Jesus took bread, and blessed it, and brake it, and gave it to the disciples, and said, Take, eat; this is my body.

27 And he took the cup, and gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying, Drink ye all of it;

28 For this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins.

29 But I say unto you, I will not drink henceforth of this fruit of the vine, until that day when I drink it new with you in my Father's kingdom.

30 And when they had sung an hymn, they went out into the mount of Olives.

31 Then saith Jesus unto them, All ye shall be offended because of me this night: for it is written, I will smite the shepherd, and the sheep of the flock shall be scattered abroad.

32 But after I am risen again, I will go before you into Galilee.

33 Peter answered and said unto him, Though all men shall be offended because of thee, yet will I never be offended.

34 Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, That this night, before the cock crow, thou shalt deny me thrice.

35 Peter said unto him, Though I should die with thee, yet will I not deny thee. Likewise also said all the disciples.

36 Then cometh Jesus with them unto a place called Gethsemane, and saith unto the disciples, Sit ye here, while I go and pray yonder.

37 And he took with him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, and began to be sorrowful and very heavy.

38 Then saith he unto them, My soul is exceeding sorrowful, even unto death: tarry ye here, and watch with me.

39 And he went a little farther, and fell on his face, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me: nevertheless not as I will, but as thou wilt.

40 And he cometh unto the disciples, and findeth them asleep, and saith unto Peter, What, could ye not watch with me one hour?

41 Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.

42 He went away again the second time, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if this cup may not pass away from me, except I drink it, thy will be done.

43 And he came and found them asleep again: for their eyes were heavy.

44 And he left them, and went away again, and prayed the third time, saying the same words.

45 Then cometh he to his disciples, and saith unto them, Sleep on now, and take your rest: behold, the hour is at hand, and the Son of man is betrayed into the hands of sinners.

46 Rise, let us be going: behold, he is at hand that doth betray me.

47 And while he yet spake, lo, Judas, one of the twelve, came, and with him a great multitude with swords and staves, from the chief priests and elders of the people.

48 Now he that betrayed him gave them a sign, saying, Whomsoever I shall kiss, that same is he: hold him fast.

49 And forthwith he came to Jesus, and said, Hail, master; and kissed him.

50 And Jesus said unto him, Friend, wherefore art thou come? Then came they, and laid hands on Jesus and took him.

51 And, behold, one of them which were with Jesus stretched out his hand, and drew his sword, and struck a servant of the high priest's, and smote off his ear.

52 Then said Jesus unto him, Put up again thy sword into his place: for all they that take the sword shall perish with the sword.

53 Thinkest thou that I cannot now pray to my Father, and he shall presently give me more than twelve legions of angels?

54 But how then shall the scriptures be fulfilled, that thus it must be?

55 In that same hour said Jesus to the multitudes, Are ye come out as against a thief with swords and staves for to take me? I sat daily with you teaching in the temple, and ye laid no hold on me.

56 But all this was done, that the scriptures of the prophets might be fulfilled. Then all the disciples forsook him, and fled.

57 And they that had laid hold on Jesus led him away to Caiaphas the high priest, where the scribes and the elders were assembled.

58 But Peter followed him afar off unto the high priest's palace, and went in, and sat with the servants, to see the end.

59 Now the chief priests, and elders, and all the council, sought false witness against Jesus, to put him to death;

60 But found none: yea, though many false witnesses came, yet found they none. At the last came two false witnesses,

61 And said, This fellow said, I am able to destroy the temple of God, and to build it in three days.

62 And the high priest arose, and said unto him, Answerest thou nothing? what is it which these witness against thee?

63 But Jesus held his peace, And the high priest answered and said unto him, I adjure thee by the living God, that thou tell us whether thou be the Christ, the Son of God.

64 Jesus saith unto him, Thou hast said: nevertheless I say unto you, Hereafter shall ye see the Son of man sitting on the right hand of power, and coming in the clouds of heaven.

65 Then the high priest rent his clothes, saying, He hath spoken blasphemy; what further need have we of witnesses? behold, now ye have heard his blasphemy.

66 What think ye? They answered and said, He is guilty of death.

67 Then did they spit in his face, and buffeted him; and others smote him with the palms of their hands,

68 Saying, Prophesy unto us, thou Christ, Who is he that smote thee?

69 Now Peter sat without in the palace: and a damsel came unto him, saying, Thou also wast with Jesus of Galilee.

70 But he denied before them all, saying, I know not what thou sayest.

71 And when he was gone out into the porch, another maid saw him, and said unto them that were there, This fellow was also with Jesus of Nazareth.

72 And again he denied with an oath, I do not know the man.

73 And after a while came unto him they that stood by, and said to Peter, Surely thou also art one of them; for thy speech bewrayeth thee.

74 Then began he to curse and to swear, saying, I know not the man. And immediately the cock crew.

75 And Peter remembered the word of Jesus, which said unto him, Before the cock crow, thou shalt deny me thrice. And he went out, and wept bitterly.

 

 

 

 

Matthew 27:

1 When the morning was come (Feast of unleavened bread), all the chief priests and elders of the people took counsel against Jesus to put him to death:

2 And when they had bound him, they led him away, and delivered him to Pontius Pilate the governor.

3 Then Judas, which had betrayed him, when he saw that he was condemned, repented himself, and brought again the thirty pieces of silver to the chief priests and elders,

4 Saying, I have sinned in that I have betrayed the innocent blood. And they said, What is that to us? see thou to that.

5 And he cast down the pieces of silver in the temple, and departed, and went and hanged himself.

6 And the chief priests took the silver pieces, and said, It is not lawful for to put them into the treasury, because it is the price of blood.

7 And they took counsel, and bought with them the potter's field, to bury strangers in.

8 Wherefore that field was called, The field of blood, unto this day.

9 Then was fulfilled that which was spoken by Jeremy the prophet, saying, And they took the thirty pieces of silver, the price of him that was valued, whom they of the children of Israel did value;

10 And gave them for the potter's field, as the Lord appointed me.

11 And Jesus stood before the governor: and the governor asked him, saying, Art thou the King of the Jews? And Jesus said unto him, Thou sayest.

12 And when he was accused of the chief priests and elders, he answered nothing.

13 Then said Pilate unto him, Hearest thou not how many things they witness against thee?

14 And he answered him to never a word; insomuch that the governor marvelled greatly.

15 Now at that feast the governor was wont to release unto the people a prisoner, whom they would.

16 And they had then a notable prisoner, called Barabbas.

17 Therefore when they were gathered together, Pilate said unto them, Whom will ye that I release unto you? Barabbas, or Jesus which is called Christ?

18 For he knew that for envy they had delivered him.

19 When he was set down on the judgment seat, his wife sent unto him, saying, Have thou nothing to do with that just man: for I have suffered many things this day in a dream because of him.

20 But the chief priests and elders persuaded the multitude that they should ask Barabbas, and destroy Jesus.

21 The governor answered and said unto them, Whether of the twain will ye that I release unto you? They said, Barabbas.

22 Pilate saith unto them, What shall I do then with Jesus which is called Christ? They all say unto him, Let him be crucified.

23 And the governor said, Why, what evil hath he done? But they cried out the more, saying, Let him be crucified.

24 When Pilate saw that he could prevail nothing, but that rather a tumult was made, he took water, and washed his hands before the multitude, saying, I am innocent of the blood of this just person: see ye to it.

25 Then answered all the people, and said, His blood be on us, and on our children.

26 Then released he Barabbas unto them: and when he had scourged Jesus, he delivered him to be crucified.

27 Then the soldiers of the governor took Jesus into the common hall, and gathered unto him the whole band of soldiers.

28 And they stripped him, and put on him a scarlet robe.

29 And when they had platted a crown of thorns, they put it upon his head, and a reed in his right hand: and they bowed the knee before him, and mocked him, saying, Hail, King of the Jews!

30 And they spit upon him, and took the reed, and smote him on the head.

31 And after that they had mocked him, they took the robe off from him, and put his own raiment on him, and led him away to crucify him.

32 And as they came out, they found a man of Cyrene, Simon by name: him they compelled to bear his cross.

33 And when they were come unto a place called Golgotha, that is to say, a place of a skull,

34 They gave him vinegar to drink mingled with gall: and when he had tasted thereof, he would not drink.

35 And they crucified him, and parted his garments, casting lots: that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, They parted my garments among them, and upon my vesture did they cast lots.

36 And sitting down they watched him there;

37 And set up over his head his accusation written, This Is Jesus The King Of The Jews.

38 Then were there two thieves crucified with him, one on the right hand, and another on the left.

39 And they that passed by reviled him, wagging their heads,

40 And saying, Thou that destroyest the temple, and buildest it in three days, save thyself. If thou be the Son of God, come down from the cross.

41 Likewise also the chief priests mocking him, with the scribes and elders, said,

42 He saved others; himself he cannot save. If he be the King of Israel, let him now come down from the cross, and we will believe him.

43 He trusted in God; let him deliver him now, if he will have him: for he said, I am the Son of God.

44 The thieves also, which were crucified with him, cast the same in his teeth.

45 Now from the sixth hour there was darkness over all the land unto the ninth hour.

46 And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is to say, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?

47 Some of them that stood there, when they heard that, said, This man calleth for Elias.

48 And straightway one of them ran, and took a spunge, and filled it with vinegar, and put it on a reed, and gave him to drink.

49 The rest said, Let be, let us see whether Elias will come to save him.

50 Jesus, when he had cried again with a loud voice, yielded up the ghost.

51 And, behold, the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom; and the earth did quake, and the rocks rent;

52 And the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints which slept arose,

53 And came out of the graves after his resurrection, and went into the holy city, and appeared unto many.

54 Now when the centurion, and they that were with him, watching Jesus, saw the earthquake, and those things that were done, they feared greatly, saying, Truly this was the Son of God.

55 And many women were there beholding afar off, which followed Jesus from Galilee, ministering unto him:

56 Among which was Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James and Joses, and the mother of Zebedees children.

57 When the even was come, there came a rich man of Arimathaea, named Joseph, who also himself was Jesus' disciple:

58 He went to Pilate, and begged the body of Jesus. Then Pilate commanded the body to be delivered.

59 And when Joseph had taken the body, he wrapped it in a clean linen cloth,

60 And laid it in his own new tomb, which he had hewn out in the rock: and he rolled a great stone to the door of the sepulchre, and departed.

61 And there was Mary Magdalene, and the other Mary, sitting over against the sepulchre.

62 Now the next day, that followed the day of the preparation (Friday) the chief priests and Pharisees came together unto Pilate,

63 Saying, Sir, we remember that that deceiver said, while he was yet alive, After three days I will rise again.

64 Command therefore that the sepulchre be made sure until the third day, lest his disciples come by night, and steal him away, and say unto the people, He is risen from the dead: so the last error shall be worse than the first.

65 Pilate said unto them, Ye have a watch: go your way, make it as sure as ye can.

66 So they went, and made the sepulchre sure, sealing the stone, and setting a watch.

 

 

Mark 14:

1 After two days was the feast of the passover, and of unleavened bread: and the chief priests and the scribes sought how they might take him by craft, and put him to death.

2 But they said, Not on the feast day, lest there be an uproar of the people.

3 And being in Bethany in the house of Simon the leper, as he sat at meat, there came a woman having an alabaster box of ointment of spikenard very precious; and she brake the box, and poured it on his head.

4 And there were some that had indignation within themselves, and said, Why was this waste of the ointment made?

5 For it might have been sold for more than three hundred pence, and have been given to the poor. And they murmured against her.

6 And Jesus said, Let her alone; why trouble ye her? she hath wrought a good work on me.

7 For ye have the poor with you always, and whensoever ye will ye may do them good: but me ye have not always.

8 She hath done what she could: she is come aforehand to anoint my body to the burying.

9 Verily I say unto you, Wheresoever this gospel shall be preached throughout the whole world, this also that she hath done shall be spoken of for a memorial of her.

10 And Judas Iscariot, one of the twelve, went unto the chief priests, to betray him unto them.

11 And when they heard it, they were glad, and promised to give him money. And he sought how he might conveniently betray him.

12 And the first day of unleavened bread, when they killed the passover, his disciples said unto him, Where wilt thou that we go and prepare that thou mayest eat the passover?

13 And he sendeth forth two of his disciples, and saith unto them, Go ye into the city, and there shall meet you a man bearing a pitcher of water: follow him.

14 And wheresoever he shall go in, say ye to the goodman of the house, The Master saith, Where is the guestchamber, where I shall eat the passover with my disciples?

15 And he will shew you a large upper room furnished and prepared: there make ready for us.

16 And his disciples went forth, and came into the city, and found as he had said unto them: and they made ready the passover.

17 And in the evening he cometh with the twelve.

18 And as they sat and did eat, Jesus said, Verily I say unto you, One of you which eateth with me shall betray me.

19 And they began to be sorrowful, and to say unto him one by one, Is it I? and another said, Is it I?

20 And he answered and said unto them, It is one of the twelve, that dippeth with me in the dish.

21 The Son of man indeed goeth, as it is written of him: but woe to that man by whom the Son of man is betrayed! good were it for that man if he had never been born.

22 And as they did eat, Jesus took bread, and blessed, and brake it, and gave to them, and said, Take, eat: this is my body.

23 And he took the cup, and when he had given thanks, he gave it to them: and they all drank of it.

24 And he said unto them, This is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many.

25 Verily I say unto you, I will drink no more of the fruit of the vine, until that day that I drink it new in the kingdom of God.

26 And when they had sung an hymn, they went out into the mount of Olives.

27 And Jesus saith unto them, All ye shall be offended because of me this night: for it is written, I will smite the shepherd, and the sheep shall be scattered.

28 But after that I am risen, I will go before you into Galilee.

29 But Peter said unto him, Although all shall be offended, yet will not I.

30 And Jesus saith unto him, Verily I say unto thee, That this day, even in this night, before the cock crow twice, thou shalt deny me thrice.

31 But he spake the more vehemently, If I should die with thee, I will not deny thee in any wise. Likewise also said they all.

32 And they came to a place which was named Gethsemane: and he saith to his disciples, Sit ye here, while I shall pray.

33 And he taketh with him Peter and James and John, and began to be sore amazed, and to be very heavy;

34 And saith unto them, My soul is exceeding sorrowful unto death: tarry ye here, and watch.

35 And he went forward a little, and fell on the ground, and prayed that, if it were possible, the hour might pass from him.

36 And he said, Abba, Father, all things are possible unto thee; take away this cup from me: nevertheless not what I will, but what thou wilt.

37 And he cometh, and findeth them sleeping, and saith unto Peter, Simon, sleepest thou? couldest not thou watch one hour?

38 Watch ye and pray, lest ye enter into temptation. The spirit truly is ready, but the flesh is weak.

39 And again he went away, and prayed, and spake the same words.

40 And when he returned, he found them asleep again, (for their eyes were heavy,) neither wist they what to answer him.

41 And he cometh the third time, and saith unto them, Sleep on now, and take your rest: it is enough, the hour is come; behold, the Son of man is betrayed into the hands of sinners.

42 Rise up, let us go; lo, he that betrayeth me is at hand.

43 And immediately, while he yet spake, cometh Judas, one of the twelve, and with him a great multitude with swords and staves, from the chief priests and the scribes and the elders.

44 And he that betrayed him had given them a token, saying, Whomsoever I shall kiss, that same is he; take him, and lead him away safely.

45 And as soon as he was come, he goeth straightway to him, and saith, Master, master; and kissed him.

46 And they laid their hands on him, and took him.

47 And one of them that stood by drew a sword, and smote a servant of the high priest, and cut off his ear.

48 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Are ye come out, as against a thief, with swords and with staves to take me?

49 I was daily with you in the temple teaching, and ye took me not: but the scriptures must be fulfilled.

50 And they all forsook him, and fled.

51 And there followed him a certain young man, having a linen cloth cast about his naked body; and the young men laid hold on him:

52 And he left the linen cloth, and fled from them naked.

53 And they led Jesus away to the high priest: and with him were assembled all the chief priests and the elders and the scribes.

54 And Peter followed him afar off, even into the palace of the high priest: and he sat with the servants, and warmed himself at the fire.

55 And the chief priests and all the council sought for witness against Jesus to put him to death; and found none.

56 For many bare false witness against him, but their witness agreed not together.

57 And there arose certain, and bare false witness against him, saying,

58 We heard him say, I will destroy this temple that is made with hands, and within three days I will build another made without hands.

59 But neither so did their witness agree together.

60 And the high priest stood up in the midst, and asked Jesus, saying, Answerest thou nothing? what is it which these witness against thee?

61 But he held his peace, and answered nothing. Again the high priest asked him, and said unto him, Art thou the Christ, the Son of the Blessed?

62 And Jesus said, I am: and ye shall see the Son of man sitting on the right hand of power, and coming in the clouds of heaven.

63 Then the high priest rent his clothes, and saith, What need we any further witnesses?

64 Ye have heard the blasphemy: what think ye? And they all condemned him to be guilty of death.

65 And some began to spit on him, and to cover his face, and to buffet him, and to say unto him, Prophesy: and the servants did strike him with the palms of their hands.

66 And as Peter was beneath in the palace, there cometh one of the maids of the high priest:

67 And when she saw Peter warming himself, she looked upon him, and said, And thou also wast with Jesus of Nazareth.

68 But he denied, saying, I know not, neither understand I what thou sayest. And he went out into the porch; and the cock crew.

69 And a maid saw him again, and began to say to them that stood by, This is one of them.

70 And he denied it again. And a little after, they that stood by said again to Peter, Surely thou art one of them: for thou art a Galilaean, and thy speech agreeth thereto.

71 But he began to curse and to swear, saying, I know not this man of whom ye speak.

72 And the second time the cock crew. And Peter called to mind the word that Jesus said unto him, Before the cock crow twice, thou shalt deny me thrice. And when he thought thereon, he wept.

 

 

 

Mark 15:

1 And straightway in the morning the chief priests held a consultation with the elders and scribes and the whole council, and bound Jesus, and carried him away, and delivered him to Pilate.

2 And Pilate asked him, Art thou the King of the Jews? And he answering said unto them, Thou sayest it.

3 And the chief priests accused him of many things: but he answered nothing.

4 And Pilate asked him again, saying, Answerest thou nothing? behold how many things they witness against thee.

5 But Jesus yet answered nothing; so that Pilate marvelled.

6 Now at that feast he released unto them one prisoner, whomsoever they desired.

7 And there was one named Barabbas, which lay bound with them that had made insurrection with him, who had committed murder in the insurrection.

8 And the multitude crying aloud began to desire him to do as he had ever done unto them.

9 But Pilate answered them, saying, Will ye that I release unto you the King of the Jews?

10 For he knew that the chief priests had delivered him for envy.

11 But the chief priests moved the people, that he should rather release Barabbas unto them.

12 And Pilate answered and said again unto them, What will ye then that I shall do unto him whom ye call the King of the Jews?

13 And they cried out again, Crucify him.

14 Then Pilate said unto them, Why, what evil hath he done? And they cried out the more exceedingly, Crucify him.

15 And so Pilate, willing to content the people, released Barabbas unto them, and delivered Jesus, when he had scourged him, to be crucified.

16 And the soldiers led him away into the hall, called Praetorium; and they call together the whole band.

17 And they clothed him with purple, and platted a crown of thorns, and put it about his head,

18 And began to salute him, Hail, King of the Jews!

19 And they smote him on the head with a reed, and did spit upon him, and bowing their knees worshipped him.

20 And when they had mocked him, they took off the purple from him, and put his own clothes on him, and led him out to crucify him.

21 And they compel one Simon a Cyrenian, who passed by, coming out of the country, the father of Alexander and Rufus, to bear his cross.

22 And they bring him unto the place Golgotha, which is, being interpreted, The place of a skull.

23 And they gave him to drink wine mingled with myrrh: but he received it not.

24 And when they had crucified him, they parted his garments, casting lots upon them, what every man should take.

25 And it was the third hour, and they crucified him.

26 And the superscription of his accusation was written over, The King Of The Jews.

27 And with him they crucify two thieves; the one on his right hand, and the other on his left.

28 And the scripture was fulfilled, which saith, And he was numbered with the transgressors.

29 And they that passed by railed on him, wagging their heads, and saying, Ah, thou that destroyest the temple, and buildest it in three days,

30 Save thyself, and come down from the cross.

31 Likewise also the chief priests mocking said among themselves with the scribes, He saved others; himself he cannot save.

32 Let Christ the King of Israel descend now from the cross, that we may see and believe. And they that were crucified with him reviled him.

33 And when the sixth hour was come, there was darkness over the whole land until the ninth hour.

34 And at the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani? which is, being interpreted, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?

35 And some of them that stood by, when they heard it, said, Behold, he calleth Elias.

36 And one ran and filled a spunge full of vinegar, and put it on a reed, and gave him to drink, saying, Let alone; let us see whether Elias will come to take him down.

37 And Jesus cried with a loud voice, and gave up the ghost.

38 And the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom.

39 And when the centurion, which stood over against him, saw that he so cried out, and gave up the ghost, he said, Truly this man was the Son of God.

40 There were also women looking on afar off: among whom was Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James the less and of Joses, and Salome;

41 (Who also, when he was in Galilee, followed him, and ministered unto him;) and many other women which came up with him unto Jerusalem.

42 And now when the even was come, because it was the preparation, that is, the day before the sabbath,

43 Joseph of Arimathaea, an honourable counsellor, which also waited for the kingdom of God, came, and went in boldly unto Pilate, and craved the body of Jesus.

44 And Pilate marvelled if he were already dead: and calling unto him the centurion, he asked him whether he had been any while dead.

45 And when he knew it of the centurion, he gave the body to Joseph.

46 And he bought fine linen, and took him down, and wrapped him in the linen, and laid him in a sepulchre which was hewn out of a rock, and rolled a stone unto the door of the sepulchre.

47 And Mary Magdalene and Mary the mother of Joses beheld where he was laid.

 

 

 

Mark 16:

1 And when the sabbath was past, Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James, and Salome, had bought sweet spices, that they might come and anoint him.

2 And very early in the morning the first day of the week, they came unto the sepulchre at the rising of the sun.

3 And they said among themselves, Who shall roll us away the stone from the door of the sepulchre?

4 And when they looked, they saw that the stone was rolled away: for it was very great.

5 And entering into the sepulchre, they saw a young man sitting on the right side, clothed in a long white garment; and they were affrighted.

6 And he saith unto them, Be not affrighted: Ye seek Jesus of Nazareth, which was crucified: he is risen; he is not here: behold the place where they laid him.

7 But go your way, tell his disciples and Peter that he goeth before you into Galilee: there shall ye see him, as he said unto you.

8 And they went out quickly, and fled from the sepulchre; for they trembled and were amazed: neither said they any thing to any man; for they were afraid.

9 Now when Jesus was risen early the first day of the week, he appeared first to Mary Magdalene, out of whom he had cast seven devils.

10 And she went and told them that had been with him, as they mourned and wept.

11 And they, when they had heard that he was alive, and had been seen of her, believed not.

12 After that he appeared in another form unto two of them, as they walked, and went into the country.

13 And they went and told it unto the residue: neither believed they them.

14 Afterward he appeared unto the eleven as they sat at meat, and upbraided them with their unbelief and hardness of heart, because they believed not them which had seen him after he was risen.

15 And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.

16 He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.

17 And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;

18 They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.

19 So then after the Lord had spoken unto them, he was received up into heaven, and sat on the right hand of God.

20 And they went forth, and preached every where, the Lord working with them, and confirming the word with signs following. Amen.

 

 

Luke 22:

1 Now the feast of unleavened bread drew nigh, which is called the Passover.

2 And the chief priests and scribes sought how they might kill him; for they feared the people.

3 Then entered Satan into Judas surnamed Iscariot, being of the number of the twelve.

4 And he went his way, and communed with the chief priests and captains, how he might betray him unto them.

5 And they were glad, and covenanted to give him money.

6 And he promised, and sought opportunity to betray him unto them in the absence of the multitude.

7 Then came the day of unleavened bread, when the passover must be killed.

8 And he sent Peter and John, saying, Go and prepare us the passover, that we may eat.

9 And they said unto him, Where wilt thou that we prepare?

10 And he said unto them, Behold, when ye are entered into the city, there shall a man meet you, bearing a pitcher of water; follow him into the house where he entereth in.

11 And ye shall say unto the goodman of the house, The Master saith unto thee, Where is the guestchamber, where I shall eat the passover with my disciples?

12 And he shall shew you a large upper room furnished: there make ready.

13 And they went, and found as he had said unto them: and they made ready the passover.

14 And when the hour was come, he sat down, and the twelve apostles with him.

15 And he said unto them, With desire I have desired to eat this passover with you before I suffer:

16 For I say unto you, I will not any more eat thereof, until it be fulfilled in the kingdom of God.

17 And he took the cup, and gave thanks, and said, Take this, and divide it among yourselves:

18 For I say unto you, I will not drink of the fruit of the vine, until the kingdom of God shall come.

19 And he took bread, and gave thanks, and brake it, and gave unto them, saying, This is my body which is given for you: this do in remembrance of me.

20 Likewise also the cup after supper, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood, which is shed for you.

21 But, behold, the hand of him that betrayeth me is with me on the table.

22 And truly the Son of man goeth, as it was determined: but woe unto that man by whom he is betrayed!

23 And they began to enquire among themselves, which of them it was that should do this thing.

24 And there was also a strife among them, which of them should be accounted the greatest.

25 And he said unto them, The kings of the Gentiles exercise lordship over them; and they that exercise authority upon them are called benefactors.

26 But ye shall not be so: but he that is greatest among you, let him be as the younger; and he that is chief, as he that doth serve.

27 For whether is greater, he that sitteth at meat, or he that serveth? is not he that sitteth at meat? but I am among you as he that serveth.

28 Ye are they which have continued with me in my temptations.

29 And I appoint unto you a kingdom, as my Father hath appointed unto me;

30 That ye may eat and drink at my table in my kingdom, and sit on thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel.

31 And the Lord said, Simon, Simon, behold, Satan hath desired to have you, that he may sift you as wheat:

32 But I have prayed for thee, that thy faith fail not: and when thou art converted, strengthen thy brethren.

33 And he said unto him, Lord, I am ready to go with thee, both into prison, and to death.

34 And he said, I tell thee, Peter, the cock shall not crow this day, before that thou shalt thrice deny that thou knowest me.

35 And he said unto them, When I sent you without purse, and scrip, and shoes, lacked ye any thing? And they said, Nothing.

36 Then said he unto them, But now, he that hath a purse, let him take it, and likewise his scrip: and he that hath no sword, let him sell his garment, and buy one.

37 For I say unto you, that this that is written must yet be accomplished in me, And he was reckoned among the transgressors: for the things concerning me have an end.

38 And they said, Lord, behold, here are two swords. And he said unto them, It is enough.

39 And he came out, and went, as he was wont, to the mount of Olives; and his disciples also followed him.

40 And when he was at the place, he said unto them, Pray that ye enter not into temptation.

41 And he was withdrawn from them about a stone's cast, and kneeled down, and prayed,

42 Saying, Father, if thou be willing, remove this cup from me: nevertheless not my will, but thine, be done.

43 And there appeared an angel unto him from heaven, strengthening him.

44 And being in an agony he prayed more earnestly: and his sweat was as it were great drops of blood falling down to the ground.

45 And when he rose up from prayer, and was come to his disciples, he found them sleeping for sorrow,

46 And said unto them, Why sleep ye? rise and pray, lest ye enter into temptation.

47 And while he yet spake, behold a multitude, and he that was called Judas, one of the twelve, went before them, and drew near unto Jesus to kiss him.

48 But Jesus said unto him, Judas, betrayest thou the Son of man with a kiss?

49 When they which were about him saw what would follow, they said unto him, Lord, shall we smite with the sword?

50 And one of them smote the servant of the high priest, and cut off his right ear.

51 And Jesus answered and said, Suffer ye thus far. And he touched his ear, and healed him.

52 Then Jesus said unto the chief priests, and captains of the temple, and the elders, which were come to him, Be ye come out, as against a thief, with swords and staves?

53 When I was daily with you in the temple, ye stretched forth no hands against me: but this is your hour, and the power of darkness.

54 Then took they him, and led him, and brought him into the high priest's house. And Peter followed afar off.

55 And when they had kindled a fire in the midst of the hall, and were set down together, Peter sat down among them.

56 But a certain maid beheld him as he sat by the fire, and earnestly looked upon him, and said, This man was also with him.

57 And he denied him, saying, Woman, I know him not.

58 And after a little while another saw him, and said, Thou art also of them. And Peter said, Man, I am not.

59 And about the space of one hour after another confidently affirmed, saying, Of a truth this fellow also was with him: for he is a Galilaean.

60 And Peter said, Man, I know not what thou sayest. And immediately, while he yet spake, the cock crew.

61 And the Lord turned, and looked upon Peter. And Peter remembered the word of the Lord, how he had said unto him, Before the cock crow, thou shalt deny me thrice.

62 And Peter went out, and wept bitterly.

63 And the men that held Jesus mocked him, and smote him.

64 And when they had blindfolded him, they struck him on the face, and asked him, saying, Prophesy, who is it that smote thee?

65 And many other things blasphemously spake they against him.

66 And as soon as it was day, the elders of the people and the chief priests and the scribes came together, and led him into their council, saying,

67 Art thou the Christ? tell us. And he said unto them, If I tell you, ye will not believe:

68 And if I also ask you, ye will not answer me, nor let me go.

69 Hereafter shall the Son of man sit on the right hand of the power of God.

70 Then said they all, Art thou then the Son of God? And he said unto them, Ye say that I am.

71 And they said, What need we any further witness? for we ourselves have heard of his own mouth.

 

 

John 18:

1 When Jesus had spoken these words, he went forth with his disciples over the brook Cedron, where was a garden, into the which he entered, and his disciples.

2 And Judas also, which betrayed him, knew the place: for Jesus ofttimes resorted thither with his disciples.

3 Judas then, having received a band of men and officers from the chief priests and Pharisees, cometh thither with lanterns and torches and weapons.

4 Jesus therefore, knowing all things that should come upon him, went forth, and said unto them, Whom seek ye?

5 They answered him, Jesus of Nazareth. Jesus saith unto them, I am he. And Judas also, which betrayed him, stood with them.

6 As soon then as he had said unto them, I am he, they went backward, and fell to the ground.

7 Then asked he them again, Whom seek ye? And they said, Jesus of Nazareth.

8 Jesus answered, I have told you that I am he: if therefore ye seek me, let these go their way:

9 That the saying might be fulfilled, which he spake, Of them which thou gavest me have I lost none.

10 Then Simon Peter having a sword drew it, and smote the high priest's servant, and cut off his right ear. The servant's name was Malchus.

11 Then said Jesus unto Peter, Put up thy sword into the sheath: the cup which my Father hath given me, shall I not drink it?

12 Then the band and the captain and officers of the Jews took Jesus, and bound him,

13 And led him away to Annas first; for he was father in law to Caiaphas, which was the high priest that same year.

14 Now Caiaphas was he, which gave counsel to the Jews, that it was expedient that one man should die for the people.

15 And Simon Peter followed Jesus, and so did another disciple: that disciple was known unto the high priest, and went in with Jesus into the palace of the high priest.

16 But Peter stood at the door without. Then went out that other disciple, which was known unto the high priest, and spake unto her that kept the door, and brought in Peter.

17 Then saith the damsel that kept the door unto Peter, Art not thou also one of this man's disciples? He saith, I am not.

18 And the servants and officers stood there, who had made a fire of coals; for it was cold: and they warmed themselves: and Peter stood with them, and warmed himself.

19 The high priest then asked Jesus of his disciples, and of his doctrine.

20 Jesus answered him, I spake openly to the world; I ever taught in the synagogue, and in the temple, whither the Jews always resort; and in secret have I said nothing.

21 Why askest thou me? ask them which heard me, what I have said unto them: behold, they know what I said.

22 And when he had thus spoken, one of the officers which stood by struck Jesus with the palm of his hand, saying, Answerest thou the high priest so?

23 Jesus answered him, If I have spoken evil, bear witness of the evil: but if well, why smitest thou me?

24 Now Annas had sent him bound unto Caiaphas the high priest.

25 And Simon Peter stood and warmed himself. They said therefore unto him, Art not thou also one of his disciples? He denied it, and said, I am not.

26 One of the servants of the high priest, being his kinsman whose ear Peter cut off, saith, Did not I see thee in the garden with him?

27 Peter then denied again: and immediately the cock crew.

28 Then led they Jesus from Caiaphas unto the hall of judgment: and it was early; and they themselves went not into the judgment hall, lest they should be defiled; but that they might eat the passover.

29 Pilate then went out unto them, and said, What accusation bring ye against this man?

30 They answered and said unto him, If he were not a malefactor, we would not have delivered him up unto thee.

31 Then said Pilate unto them, Take ye him, and judge him according to your law. The Jews therefore said unto him, It is not lawful for us to put any man to death:

32 That the saying of Jesus might be fulfilled, which he spake, signifying what death he should die.

33 Then Pilate entered into the judgment hall again, and called Jesus, and said unto him, Art thou the King of the Jews?

34 Jesus answered him, Sayest thou this thing of thyself, or did others tell it thee of me?

35 Pilate answered, Am I a Jew? Thine own nation and the chief priests have delivered thee unto me: what hast thou done?

36 Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of this world: if my kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight, that I should not be delivered to the Jews: but now is my kingdom not from hence.

37 Pilate therefore said unto him, Art thou a king then? Jesus answered, Thou sayest that I am a king. To this end was I born, and for this cause came I into the world, that I should bear witness unto the truth. Every one that is of the truth heareth my voice.

38 Pilate saith unto him, What is truth? And when he had said this, he went out again unto the Jews, and saith unto them, I find in him no fault at all.

39 But ye have a custom, that I should release unto you one at the passover: will ye therefore that I release unto you the King of the Jews?

40 Then cried they all again, saying, Not this man, but Barabbas. Now Barabbas was a robber.

 

 

John 19:

1 Then Pilate therefore took Jesus, and scourged him.

2 And the soldiers platted a crown of thorns, and put it on his head, and they put on him a purple robe,

3 And said, Hail, King of the Jews! and they smote him with their hands.

4 Pilate therefore went forth again, and saith unto them, Behold, I bring him forth to you, that ye may know that I find no fault in him.

5 Then came Jesus forth, wearing the crown of thorns, and the purple robe. And Pilate saith unto them, Behold the man!

6 When the chief priests therefore and officers saw him, they cried out, saying, Crucify him, crucify him. Pilate saith unto them, Take ye him, and crucify him: for I find no fault in him.

7 The Jews answered him, We have a law, and by our law he ought to die, because he made himself the Son of God.

8 When Pilate therefore heard that saying, he was the more afraid;

9 And went again into the judgment hall, and saith unto Jesus, Whence art thou? But Jesus gave him no answer.

10 Then saith Pilate unto him, Speakest thou not unto me? knowest thou not that I have power to crucify thee, and have power to release thee?

11 Jesus answered, Thou couldest have no power at all against me, except it were given thee from above: therefore he that delivered me unto thee hath the greater sin.

12 And from thenceforth Pilate sought to release him: but the Jews cried out, saying, If thou let this man go, thou art not Caesar's friend: whosoever maketh himself a king speaketh against Caesar.

13 When Pilate therefore heard that saying, he brought Jesus forth, and sat down in the judgment seat in a place that is called the Pavement, but in the Hebrew, Gabbatha.

14 And it was the preparation of the passover, and about the sixth hour: and he saith unto the Jews, Behold your King!

15 But they cried out, Away with him, away with him, crucify him. Pilate saith unto them, Shall I crucify your King? The chief priests answered, We have no king but Caesar.

16 Then delivered he him therefore unto them to be crucified. And they took Jesus, and led him away.

17 And he bearing his cross went forth into a place called the place of a skull, which is called in the Hebrew Golgotha:

18 Where they crucified him, and two other with him, on either side one, and Jesus in the midst.

19 And Pilate wrote a title, and put it on the cross. And the writing was Jesus Of Nazareth The King Of The Jews.

20 This title then read many of the Jews: for the place where Jesus was crucified was nigh to the city: and it was written in Hebrew, and Greek, and Latin.

21 Then said the chief priests of the Jews to Pilate, Write not, The King of the Jews; but that he said, I am King of the Jews.

22 Pilate answered, What I have written I have written.

23 Then the soldiers, when they had crucified Jesus, took his garments, and made four parts, to every soldier a part; and also his coat: now the coat was without seam, woven from the top throughout.

24 They said therefore among themselves, Let us not rend it, but cast lots for it, whose it shall be: that the scripture might be fulfilled, which saith, They parted my raiment among them, and for my vesture they did cast lots. These things therefore the soldiers did.

25 Now there stood by the cross of Jesus his mother, and his mother's sister, Mary the wife of Cleophas, and Mary Magdalene.

26 When Jesus therefore saw his mother, and the disciple standing by, whom he loved, he saith unto his mother, Woman, behold thy son!

27 Then saith he to the disciple, Behold thy mother! And from that hour that disciple took her unto his own home.

28 After this, Jesus knowing that all things were now accomplished, that the scripture might be fulfilled, saith, I thirst.

29 Now there was set a vessel full of vinegar: and they filled a spunge with vinegar, and put it upon hyssop, and put it to his mouth.

30 When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, It is finished: and he bowed his head, and gave up the ghost.

31 The Jews therefore, because it was the preparation, that the bodies should not remain upon the cross on the sabbath day, (for that sabbath day was an high day,) besought Pilate that their legs might be broken, and that they might be taken away.

32 Then came the soldiers, and brake the legs of the first, and of the other which was crucified with him.

33 But when they came to Jesus, and saw that he was dead already, they brake not his legs:

34 But one of the soldiers with a spear pierced his side, and forthwith came there out blood and water.

35 And he that saw it bare record, and his record is true: and he knoweth that he saith true, that ye might believe.

36 For these things were done, that the scripture should be fulfilled, A bone of him shall not be broken.

37 And again another scripture saith, They shall look on him whom they pierced.

38 And after this Joseph of Arimathaea, being a disciple of Jesus, but secretly for fear of the Jews, besought Pilate that he might take away the body of Jesus: and Pilate gave him leave. He came therefore, and took the body of Jesus.

39 And there came also Nicodemus, which at the first came to Jesus by night, and brought a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about an hundred pound weight.

40 Then took they the body of Jesus, and wound it in linen clothes with the spices, as the manner of the Jews is to bury.

41 Now in the place where he was crucified there was a garden; and in the garden a new sepulchre, wherein was never man yet laid.

42 There laid they Jesus therefore because of the Jews' preparation day; for the sepulchre was nigh at hand.

 

John 20:

1 The first day of the week cometh Mary Magdalene early, when it was yet dark, unto the sepulchre, and seeth the stone taken away from the sepulchre.

2 Then she runneth, and cometh to Simon Peter, and to the other disciple, whom Jesus loved, and saith unto them, They have taken away the Lord out of the sepulchre, and we know not where they have laid him.

3 Peter therefore went forth, and that other disciple, and came to the sepulchre.

4 So they ran both together: and the other disciple did outrun Peter, and came first to the sepulchre.

5 And he stooping down, and looking in, saw the linen clothes lying; yet went he not in.

6 Then cometh Simon Peter following him, and went into the sepulchre, and seeth the linen clothes lie,

7 And the napkin, that was about his head, not lying with the linen clothes, but wrapped together in a place by itself.

8 Then went in also that other disciple, which came first to the sepulchre, and he saw, and believed.

9 For as yet they knew not the scripture, that he must rise again from the dead.

10 Then the disciples went away again unto their own home.

11 But Mary stood without at the sepulchre weeping: and as she wept, she stooped down, and looked into the sepulchre,

12 And seeth two angels in white sitting, the one at the head, and the other at the feet, where the body of Jesus had lain.

13 And they say unto her, Woman, why weepest thou? She saith unto them, Because they have taken away my Lord, and I know not where they have laid him.

14 And when she had thus said, she turned herself back, and saw Jesus standing, and knew not that it was Jesus.

15 Jesus saith unto her, Woman, why weepest thou? whom seekest thou? She, supposing him to be the gardener, saith unto him, Sir, if thou have borne him hence, tell me where thou hast laid him, and I will take him away.

16 Jesus saith unto her, Mary. She turned herself, and saith unto him, Rabboni; which is to say, Master.

17 Jesus saith unto her, Touch me not; for I am not yet ascended to my Father: but go to my brethren, and say unto them, I ascend unto my Father, and your Father; and to my God, and your God.

18 Mary Magdalene came and told the disciples that she had seen the Lord, and that he had spoken these things unto her.

19 Then the same day at evening, being the first day of the week, when the doors were shut where the disciples were assembled for fear of the Jews, came Jesus and stood in the midst, and saith unto them, Peace be unto you.

20 And when he had so said, he shewed unto them his hands and his side. Then were the disciples glad, when they saw the Lord.

21 Then said Jesus to them again, Peace be unto you: as my Father hath sent me, even so send I you.

22 And when he had said this, he breathed on them, and saith unto them, Receive ye the Holy Ghost:

23 Whose soever sins ye remit, they are remitted unto them; and whose soever sins ye retain, they are retained.

24 But Thomas, one of the twelve, called Didymus, was not with them when Jesus came.

25 The other disciples therefore said unto him, We have seen the Lord. But he said unto them, Except I shall see in his hands the print of the nails, and put my finger into the print of the nails, and thrust my hand into his side, I will not believe.

26 And after eight days again his disciples were within, and Thomas with them: then came Jesus, the doors being shut, and stood in the midst, and said, Peace be unto you.

27 Then saith he to Thomas, Reach hither thy finger, and behold my hands; and reach hither thy hand, and thrust it into my side: and be not faithless, but believing.

28 And Thomas answered and said unto him, My Lord and my God.

29 Jesus saith unto him, Thomas, because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed.

30 And many other signs truly did Jesus in the presence of his disciples, which are not written in this book:

31 But these are written, that ye might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing ye might have life through his name.

Exodus 31:

Het heiligen van den sabbat

12 Verder sprak de HEERE tot Mozes, zeggende:

13 Gij nu, spreek tot de kinderen Israëls, zeggende: Gij zult evenwel mijn sabbatten onderhouden; want dit is een teken (zegel, verbond) tussen Mij en tussen ulieden, bij uw geslachten; opdat men wete, dat Ik de HEERE (YHWH) ben, Die u heilige.

14 Onderhoudt dan den sabbat, dewijl hij ulieden heilig is! Wie hem ontheiligt, zal zekerlijk gedood worden; want een ieder, die op denzelven enig werk doet, die ziel zal uitgeroeid worden uit het midden harer volken.

15 Zes dagen zal men het werk doen; doch op den zevenden dag is de sabbat der rust, een heiligheid des HEEREN! Wie op den sabbatdag arbeid doet, zal zekerlijk gedood worden.

16 Dat dan de kinderen Israëls den sabbat houden, den sabbat onderhoudende in hun geslachten, tot een eeuwig verbond.

17 Hij zal tussen Mij en tussen de kinderen Israëls een teken (zegel, verbond) in eeuwigheid zijn; dewijl de HEERE, in zes dagen, den hemel en de aarde gemaakt, en op den zevenden dag gerust en zich verkwikt heeft. (Israel = niet Joden oftewel de stam Juda alleen. dwz IEDER mens op aarde die YHWH zijn geboden en instructies opvolgd en zich aan de sabbath houdt)

18 En Hij gaf aan Mozes, als Hij met hem op den berg Sinaï te spreken geëindigd had, de twee tafelen der getuigenis, tafelen van steen, beschreven met den vinger Gods.

Exodus 27: 
21 In de tent der samenkomst, van buiten den voorhang, die voor de getuigenis is, zal ze Aäron en zijn zonen toerichten, van den avond tot den morgen, voor het aangezicht des HEEREN; dit zal een eeuwige inzetting zijn voor hun geslachten, vanwege de kinderen Israëls. 

Je dag begint met rusten en je eindigd met werken bij YHWH.

16 En de heerlijkheid des HEEREN woonde op den berg Sinaï, en de wolk bedekte hem zes dagen, en op den zevenden dag riep Hij Mozes uit het midden der wolk.

5 Op het dak van haar huis had ze voor zichzelf een tent gemaakt. Ze ging als weduwe gekleed en droeg een rouwkleed om haar middel. 
6 Sinds de dood van haar man vastte ze iedere dag, behalve op sabbat en de dag daarvoor, daags vóór en op nieuwe maan en tijdens de feest- en hoogtijdagen die door het volk van Israël werden gevierd.

Lukas 18: (Statenvertaling)
12 Ik vast tweemaal per week; ik geef tienden van alles, wat ik bezit.
(Latijn) Ieiuno bis in sabbato decimas do omnium quae possideo
Ik vast tweemaal op zaterdag en geef tienden van alles wat ik bezit.
Op zaterdag vast ik tweemaal en ik geef tienden van alles wat ik bezit.

decimas do omnium quae possideo - Ik geef tienden van alles wat ik bezit

ieiuno bis - ik vast tweemaal

in sabato - op zaterdag

 

1 Korinthiërs 11:

1 Weest mijn navolgers, gelijkerwijs ook ik (Paulus) van Christus.

2 En ik prijs u, broeders, dat gij in alles mijner gedachtig zijt, en de inzettingen behoudt, gelijk ik die u overgegeven heb.

 

Jesaja 62:

5 Want gelijk een jongeling een jonkvrouw trouwt, alzo zullen uw kinderen u trouwen (Sabbath, 10 geboden); en gelijk de bruidegom vrolijk is over de bruid, alzo zal uw God over u vrolijk zijn.

YHWH is zeer zeer serieus met zijn 10 geboden en die gelden voor alle mensen(rassen) en vreemdelingen/nephelims/aliëns/gevallen engelen/demonen/duivels.
Als je bij YHVH's volk wilt horen dan moet jij je aan deze geboden voldoen en Hij noemt ze dan zijn volk 'Israël'.

 

Ik weet niet of je deze al wist maar wij (Alle volken en naties) hebben verschillende soorten sabbatten te onderhouden van onze YHWH. 

Waaronder de Nieuwe maansabbat en de 7e dag sabbat (zaterdag zonsopgang tot zonrdag zonsopgang sabbat). Ook zijn er bepaalde feestdagen die als extra sabbat gelden.

 

Matthéüs 5:

De roeping der discipelen

13 Gij zijt het zout der aarde; indien nu het zout smakeloos wordt, waarmede zal het gezouten worden? Het deugt nergens meer toe, dan om buiten geworpen, en van de mensen vertreden te worden.

14 Gij zijt het licht der wereld; een stad boven op een berg liggende, kan niet verborgen zijn.

15 Noch steekt men een kaars aan, en zet die onder een koornmaat, maar op een kandelaar, en zij schijnt allen, die in het huis zijn;

16 Laat uw licht alzo schijnen voor de mensen, dat zij uw goede werken mogen zien, en uw Vader, Die in de hemelen is, verheerlijken.

 

Exodus 23:

10 Gij zult ook zes jaar uw land bezaaien, en deszelfs inkomst verzamelen;

11 Maar in het zevende zult gij het rusten en stil liggen laten, dat de armen uws volks mogen eten, en het overige daarvan de beesten des velds eten mogen; alzo zult gij ook doen met uw wijngaard, en met uw olijfbomen.

12 Zes dagen zult gij uw werken doen; maar op den zevenden dag zult gij rusten; opdat uw os en uw ezel ruste, en dat de zoon uwer dienstmaagd en de vreemdeling adem scheppe.

Op Sjabbat en Joodse Feestdagen mag je o.a.: (Dit zijn joodse/Judah gebruiken)
-niet werken 
-niet reizen (Het moet niet vermoeiend zijn)
-niet schrijven?
-geen vuur maken (Niet koken/werken wel verwarming)
-geen elektriciteit gebruiken (dat staat er niet in de Thora)
-een ander niet voor je laten werken. 
- Geen last dragen
De Joodse dag begint de avond tevoren bij het invallen van die avond. In de zomer is dit meestal geen probleem. In de winter kan het echter gebeuren dat op b.v. vrijdagmiddag de Sjabbat al om kwart over vier begint. 
Het Joodse jaar richt zich op de maan, terwijl het maatschappelijke jaar zich op de zon richt. Hierdoor zijn de Joodse maanden korter en bestaan er schrikkelmaanden. De Joodse feestdagen vallen altijd op dezelfde data in het Joodse jaar, maar dat loopt dus niet synchroon met het maatschappelijke jaar.

zaterdag: 7e dag van de week, genoemd naar de Romeinse god Saturnus.
Zaterdag is een van de zeven dagen van de week volgens de gregoriaanse kalender. Het is de dag die op de vrijdag volgt, de dag na zaterdag is zondag. De naam is een verbastering van het Latijnse: dies Saturni, naar de (af)god Saturnus, god van de landbouw. 
De Franse naam samedi is afgeleid van vulgair Latijn sabbati dies (dag van de sabbat).

Numeri 16:

46 En Mozes zeide tot Aäron: Neem het wierookvat, en doe vuur daarin van het altaar, en leg reukwerk daarop, haastelijk gaande tot de vergadering, doe over hen verzoening; want een grote toorn is van voor het aangezicht des HEEREN uitgegaan, de plaag heeft aangevangen.

Leviticus 1:

7 En de zonen van Aäron, den priester, zullen vuur maken op het altaar, en zullen het hout op het vuur schikken.
    8 Ook zullen de zonen van Aäron, de priesters, de stukken, het hoofd en het smeer, schikken op het hout, dat op het vuur is, hetwelk op het altaar is.

 

Exodus 20:

24 Maakt Mij een altaar van aarde, en offert daarop uw brandofferen, en uw dankofferen, uw schapen, en uw runderen; aan alle plaats, waar Ik Mijns Naams gedachtenis stichten zal, zal Ik tot u komen, en zal u zegenen.

Lamp, auto, gasfornuis.
Bij een haard, leg al je blokken hout de dag voor de sabbat klaar, zodat je op de sabbath niets hoeft te dragen/werken.

Reizen/Traveling: (Sabbatsreize/Sabbath day's journey)

Het gezegde 'een sabbatsreis' komt uit de mondelinge leer van de Farizeeen, later bekend als de Talmoed.
Het reizen op zich mag niet vermoeiend zijn, maar je mag wel ergens naar toe gaan.

Matthéüs 24:

20 Doch bidt, dat uw vlucht niet geschiede des winters, noch op een sabbat.

Exodus 16:

22 En het geschiedde op den zesden dag, dat zij dubbel brood verzamelden, twee gomers voor een; en al de oversten der vergadering kwamen en verkondigden het aan Mozes.

23 Hij dan zeide tot hen: Dit is het, dat de HEERE gesproken heeft: Morgen is de rust, de heilige sabbat des HEEREN! wat gij bakken zoudt, bakt dat, en ziedt, wat gij zieden zoudt; en al wat over blijft, legt het op voor u in bewaring tot den morgen.

    24 En zij legden het op tot den morgen, gelijk als Mozes geboden had; en het stonk niet, en er was geen worm in.

25 Toen zeide Mozes: Eet dat heden, want het is heden de sabbat des HEEREN YHWH; gij zult het heden op het veld niet vinden.

26 Zes dagen zult gij het verzamelen; doch op den zevenden dag is het sabbat, op denzelven zal het niet zijn.

27 En het geschiedde aan den zevenden dag, dat sommigen van het volk uitgingen, om te verzamelen; doch zij vonden niet.

28 Toen zeide de HEERE tot Mozes: Hoe lang weigert gijlieden te houden Mijn geboden en Mijn wetten?

29 Ziet, omdat de HEERE ulieden den sabbat gegeven heeft, daarom geeft Hij u aan den zesden dag voor twee dagen brood; een ieder blijve in zijn plaats! dat niemand uit zijn plaats ga op den zevenden dag!
    30 Alzo rustte het volk op den zevenden dag.

29 See, for that the LORD hath given you the sabbath, therefore he giveth you on the sixth day the bread of two days; abide ye every man in his place, let no man go out of his place on the seventh day. (KJV)


Dus moeten we niet zo ver reizen dat we er moe van worden, en ons zelf belasten met reizen.

Handelingen 1:

12 Toen keerden zij wederom naar Jeruzalem, van den berg, die genaamd wordt de Olijfberg, welke is nabij Jeruzalem, liggende van daar een sabbatsreize.

In dit gedeelte wordt echter slechts een in die dagen gangbare aanduiding van afstand gebruikt. 
Het betekent niet dat de discipelen zich aan een Farizeese traditie hielden.
Nergens vinden we een dergelijke specifieke instructie in de Wet. Ook vinden we nergens dat de discipelen zich aan zo'n instructie houden die niet zijn basis heeft in het Woord van God. De farizeeen wilden bepalen hoever iemand zich kon verplaatsen op Sabbat, zonder Exodus 16:29 te breken. Dus kwamen ze met de Sabbatsreis wat ongeveer anderhalve kilometer was. Maar de wet van God is niet zo specifiek, het idee dat Jahweh wil overbrengen is dat we niet moeten werken.
Dus moeten we niet zo ver reizen dat we er moe van worden, en ons zelf belasten met reizen. Dus, iedere reis op Sabbat moet als licht ervaren worden, en niet als belastend. De Sabbat draait om rust. Ex 16:29 wil zeggen dat we op die dag in onze omgeving moeten blijven. Dit betekent dat we ons kunnen verplaatsen tenzij de reis ongebruikelijk of vermoeiend is.
Een ander voorbeeld van hoe de orale wet ons begrip vertroebelt is hoe Yeshua de Sabbat 'overtreedt'in de ogen van de Farizeeën. Johannes 5:16 Maar wat deed hij volgens hen dat een overtreding zou zijn? De context is het verhaal van de verlamde die door Yeshua wordt genezen, en die de opdracht krijgt om op te staan en zijn matras te dragen. In de ogen van de Fariezeeën overtreedt Hij hiermee de Sabbat op twee manieren: 
- Genezen op de Sabbat
- Iemand opgragen zijn matras te dragen.
Beide zijn een overtreding van de aanvullende geboden van de Farizeeën.
Maar let AUB op, het waren de AANVULLENDE geboden van de Farizeeën die werden ovetreden en niet de Wet van God.
Deze extra geboden werden in het begin toegevoegd met de beste bedoelingen.
Ze moesten Gods volk helpen om niet eens in de buurt te komen van een overtreding van Gods Wet.  Als een soort hek. Maar deze extra geboden werden door de leiders uiteindelijk tot dezelfde status verheven als Gods Wet. Daarom zei God in Deuteronomium 4:2 Ten aanzien van het onderwerp 'genezen op de Sabbat' zette Yeshua een aantal zaken op hun plaats. Zelfs de farizeeën. Lucas 13:10 Mensen hebben veel veronderstellingen met betrekking tot de Sabbat, en alle andere geboden van God. Het probleem hiermee is dat veel veronderstellingen zijn gebaseerd op menselijke regels die door de eeuwen heen zijn overgedragen, en niet op Gods Woord. Wij vragen u daarom om bewustwording ten aanzien van wat u gelooft. Wees er zeker van dat het gebaseerd is op de Schrift en niet op traditie. Als er een menigsverschil is over welk vers dan ook, dan is dat niet erg, want we kunnen allemaal leren en groeien met dat vers als vertrekpunt. We baseren ons dan tenminste op de schrift en niet op iets uit overleveringen van de 'kerkvaders'. We zouden ernaar moeten streven te groeien in het Woord van God en niet in het woord van mensen.

Numeri 35:

5 En gij zult meten van buiten de stad, aan den hoek tegen het oosten, twee duizend ellen (cubits), (minder dan 804 meter/half a mile) en aan den hoek van het zuiden, twee duizend ellen, en aan den hoek van het westen, twee duizend ellen, en aan den hoek van het noorden, twee duizend ellen; dat de stad in het midden zij. Dit zullen zij hebben tot voorsteden van de steden.

Jozua 3:

4 Dat er nochtans ruimte zij tussen ulieden en tussen dezelve, bij de twee  duizend ellen in de maat; en nadert tot dezelve niet; opdat gij dien weg wetet, dien gij gaan zult; want gijlieden zijt door dien weg niet gegaan gisteren en eergisteren.

Werken/work:

Exodus 20:
  8 Gedenk den sabbatdag, dat gij dien heiligt.
  9 Zes dagen zult gij arbeiden en al uw werk doen;
10 Maar de zevende dag is de sabbat des HEEREN uws Gods; dan zult gij geen werk doen, gij, noch uw zoon, noch uw dochter, noch uw dienstknecht, noch uw dienstmaagd, noch uw vee, noch uw vreemdeling, die in uw poorten is;
11 Want in zes dagen heeft de HEERE den hemel en de aarde gemaakt, de zee en al wat daarin is, en Hij rustte ten zevenden dage; daarom zegende de HEERE den sabbatdag, en heiligde denzelven.

Exodus 20: (KJV)
11 For in six days the LORD made the heavens and the earth and the sea and all that is in them, and he rested on the seventh day; therefore the LORD blessed the Sabbath day and set it apart as holy.

 

Exodus 35:
21 Zes dagen zult gij arbeiden, maar op den zevenden dag zult gij rusten; in den ploegtijd en in den oogst zult gij rusten.

Leviticus 23:
3 Zes dagen zal men het werk doen, maar op den zevenden dag is de sabbat der rust, een heilige samenroeping; geen werk zult gij doen; het is des HEEREN sabbat, in al uw woningen.

Geen last dragen:

Jeremía 17:

21 Zo zegt de HEERE: Wacht u op uw zielen, en draagt geen last op den sabbatdag, noch brengt in door de poorten van Jeruzalem.

22 Ook zult gijlieden geen last uitvoeren uit uw huizen op den sabbatdag, noch enig werk doen; maar gij zult den sabbatdag heiligen, gelijk als Ik uw vaderen geboden heb.

21 Thus saith the LORD; Take heed to yourselves, and bear no burden on the sabbath day, nor bring it in by the gates of Jerusalem;
22 Neither carry forth a burden out of your houses on the sabbath day, neither do ye any work, but hallow ye the sabbath day, as I commanded your fathers. (KJV)

Nehemía 10:

31 Ook als de volken des lands waren en alle koren op den sabbatdag ten verkoop brengen, dat wij op den sabbat, op een anderen heiligen dag van hen niet zouden nemen; en dat wij het zevende jaar zouden vrij laten, mitsgaders allerhande bezwaarnis.

 

DAY BEFORE THE SABBATH

DAY BEFORE THE SABBATH - ("preparation"): 

Considered as a day of preparation, in accordance with Ex 16:23, both before the regular Sabbath and before a feast Sabbath (Mt 27:62; Mk 15:42; Lk 23:54; Jn 19:14,31,42). 
At 3 p.m., the Hebrews began to prepare their food for the next day, and to perform all labors which were forbidden to be done on the Sabbath and yet must be done. 
They bathed and purified themselves, dressed in festive apparel, set their tables, and lighted their lamps.
On the day before Easter, the Hebrews of the later period made it their chief business to remove all leaven from the house (1 Cor 5:7).
This custom of converting at least a portion of the day before the Sabbath into a holy day was recognized by the Romans to such an extent that, according to a rescript of Augustus, Jews need not appear in court after 3 p.m. on such days. Criminal cases were not brought before court on this day, and journeys exceeding 12 Roman miles were prohibited. The signal for the preparations was given by the priests by means of trumpets blown six times at intervals.

1 Korinthe 5:

7 Zuivert dan den ouden zuurdesem uit, opdat gij een nieuw deeg zijn moogt, gelijk gij ongezuurd zijt. Want ook ons Pascha is voor ons geslacht, namelijk Christus.

Exodus 16:

23 Hij dan zeide tot hen: Dit is het, dat de HEERE gesproken heeft: Morgen is de rust, de heilige sabbat des HEEREN! wat gij bakken zoudt, bakt dat, en ziedt, wat gij zieden zoudt; en al wat over blijft, legt het op voor u in bewaring tot den morgen.

Matthéüs 27:

62 Des anderen daags nu, welke is na de voorbereiding, vergaderden de overpriesters en de farizeeën tot Pilatus,

 

Markus 15:

42 En als het nu avond was geworden, dewijl het de voorbereiding was, welke is de voorsabbat;

 

Mark 16:

1 And when the sabbath was past, Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James, and Salome, had bought sweet spices, that they might come and anoint him.

2 And very early in the morning the first day of the week, they came unto the sepulchre at the rising of the sun.

Lukas 23:

54  En het was de dag der voorbereiding (vrijdag), en de sabbat kwam aan. 

55 En ook de vrouwen, die met Hem gekomen waren uit Galiléa, volgden na en aanschouwden het graf, en hoe Zijn lichaam gelegd werd.

56 En wedergekeerd zijnde, bereidden zij specerijen en zalven; en op den sabbat rustten zij naar het gebod.

Johannes 19:

14 En het was de voorbereiding van het pascha, en omtrent de zesde ure; en hij zeide tot de Joden: Ziet, uw Koning!
31 De Joden dan, opdat de lichamen niet aan het kruis zouden blijven op den sabbat, dewijl dewijl het de voorbereiding was (want die dag des llsabbats was groot), baden Pilatus, dat hun benen zouden gebroken, en zij weggenomen worden.

42 Aldaar dan legden zij Jezus, om de voorbereiding der Joden, overmits het graf nabij was.

Roman mile:
The Romans, when marching their armies through Europe, were the first to use the unit of long distance mille passuum (literally "a thousand paces" in Latin, where each pace or stride was two steps). When marching through uncharted territory, they would often push a carved stick in the ground after each 1000 paces. Well fed and harshly driven Roman battalions in good weather thus created longer miles. After attempts to standardize, it denoted a distance of 1,000 average paces or 5,000 Roman feet, and is estimated to be about 1,479 metres (4,851 feet or 1,617 yards). This unit, now known as the Roman mile,[29] spread throughout the Roman Empire, often with modifications to fit local systems of measurements.

Psalm 95:

1 O come, let us sing unto the Lord: let us make a joyful noise to the rock of our salvation.
2 Let us come before his presence with thanksgiving, and make a joyful noise unto him with psalms.
3 For the Lord is a great God, and a great King above all gods.
4 In his hand are the deep places of the earth: the strength of the hills is his also.
5 The sea is his, and he made it: and his hands formed the dry land.
6 O come, let us worship and bow down: let us kneel before the Lord our maker.
7 For he is our God; and we are the people of his pasture, and the sheep of his hand. To day if ye will hear his voice,
8 Harden not your heart, as in the provocation, and as in the day of temptation in the wilderness:
9 When your fathers tempted me, proved me, and saw my work.
10 Forty years long was I grieved with this generation, and said, It is a people that do err in their heart, and they have not known my ways:
11 Unto whom I sware in my wrath that they should not enter into my rest.

 

Hebrews 4:

1 Let us therefore fear, lest, a promise being left us of entering into his rest, any of you should seem to come short of it.
2 For unto us was the gospel preached, as well as unto them: but the word preached did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in them that heard it.
3 For we which have believed do enter into rest, as he said, As I have sworn in my wrath, if they shall enter into my rest: although the works were finished from the foundation of the world.
4 For he spake in a certain place of the seventh day on this wise, And God did rest the seventh day from all his works.
5 And in this place again, If they shall enter into my rest.
6 Seeing therefore it remaineth that some must enter therein, and they to whom it was first preached entered not in because of unbelief:
7 Again, he limiteth a certain day, saying in David, To day, after so long a time; as it is said, To day if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts.
8 For if Jesus had given them rest, then would he not afterward have spoken of another day.
9 There remaineth therefore a rest to the people of God.
10 For he that is entered into his rest, he also hath ceased from his own works, as God did from his.
11 Let us labour therefore to enter into that rest, lest any man fall after the same example of unbelief.
12 For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.
13 Neither is there any creature that is not manifest in his sight: but all things are naked and opened unto the eyes of him with whom we have to do.
14 Seeing then that we have a great high priest, that is passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our profession.
15 For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin.
16 Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.

 

Matthew 11:
25 At that time Jesus answered and said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because thou hast hid these things from the wise and prudent, and hast revealed them unto babes.
26 Even so, Father: for so it seemed good in thy sight.
27 All things are delivered unto me of my Father: and no man knoweth the Son, but the Father; neither knoweth any man the Father, save the Son, and he to whomsoever the Son will reveal him.
28 Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.
30 For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.

 

Acts 2:

 

Matthew 10:
6 But go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.

 

Matthew 15:
24 But he answered and said, I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel.

 

Acts 2:
1 And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place.
2 And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting.
3 And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them.
4 And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.
5 And there were dwelling at Jerusalem Jews, devout men, out of every nation under heaven.
6 Now when this was noised abroad, the multitude came together, and were confounded, because that every man heard them speak in his own language.
7 And they were all amazed and marvelled, saying one to another, Behold, are not all these which speak Galilaeans?
8 And how hear we every man in our own tongue, wherein we were born?
9 Parthians, and Medes, and Elamites, and the dwellers in Mesopotamia, and in Judaea, and Cappadocia, in Pontus, and Asia,
10 Phrygia, and Pamphylia, in Egypt, and in the parts of Libya about Cyrene, and strangers of Rome, Jews and proselytes,
11 Cretes and Arabians, we do hear them speak in our tongues the wonderful works of God.
12 And they were all amazed, and were in doubt, saying one to another, What meaneth this?
13 Others mocking said, These men are full of new wine.
14 But Peter, standing up with the eleven, lifted up his voice, and said unto them, Ye men of Judaea, and all ye that dwell at Jerusalem, be this known unto you, and hearken to my words:
15 For these are not drunken, as ye suppose, seeing it is but the third hour of the day.
16 But this is that which was spoken by the prophet Joel;
17 And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams:
18 And on my servants and on my handmaidens I will pour out in those days of my Spirit; and they shall prophesy:
19 And I will shew wonders in heaven above, and signs in the earth beneath; blood, and fire, and vapour of smoke:
20 The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and notable day of the Lord come:
21 And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord (Yahushua) shall be saved.
22 Ye men of Israel, hear these words; Jesus of Nazareth, a man approved of God among you by miracles and wonders and signs, which God did by him in the midst of you, as ye yourselves also know:
23 Him, being delivered by the determinate counsel and foreknowledge of God, ye have taken, and by wicked hands have crucified and slain:
24 Whom God hath raised up, having loosed the pains of death: because it was not possible that he should be holden of it.
25 For David speaketh concerning him, I foresaw the Lord always before my face, for he is on my right hand, that I should not be moved:
26 Therefore did my heart rejoice, and my tongue was glad; moreover also my flesh shall rest in hope:
27 Because thou wilt not leave my soul in hell, neither wilt thou suffer thine Holy One to see corruption.
28 Thou hast made known to me the ways of life; thou shalt make me full of joy with thy countenance.
29 Men and brethren, let me freely speak unto you of the patriarch David, that he is both dead and buried, and his sepulchre is with us unto this day.
30 Therefore being a prophet, and knowing that God had sworn with an oath to him, that of the fruit of his loins, according to the flesh, he would raise up Christ to sit on his throne;
31 He seeing this before spake of the resurrection of Christ, that his soul was not left in hell, neither his flesh did see corruption.
32 This Jesus hath God raised up, whereof we all are witnesses.
33 Therefore being by the right hand of God exalted, and having received of the Father the promise of the Holy Ghost, he hath shed forth this, which ye now see and hear.
34 For David is not ascended into the heavens: but he saith himself, The Lord said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand,
35 Until I make thy foes (enemies) thy footstool (of disciples listening to their teacher's instruction are said to be at his feet).

36 Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly, that God hath made the same Jesus, whom ye have crucified, both Lord and Christ. (Anointed)

 

 

Jeremiah 31:
31 Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, that I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel, and with the house of Judah:
32 Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day that I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt; which my covenant they brake, although I was an husband unto them, saith the Lord:
33 But this shall be the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel; After those days, saith the Lord, I will put my law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts; and will be their God, and they shall be my people.
34 And they shall teach no more every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the Lord: for they shall all know me, from the least of them unto the greatest of them, saith the Lord: for I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more. (Talmudic tradition)

1 In the first year of Darius the son of Ahasuerus, of the seed of the Medes, which was made king over the realm of the Chaldeans;
2 In the first year of his reign I Daniel understood by books the number of the years, whereof the word of the Lord came to Jeremiah the prophet, that he would accomplish seventy years in the desolations of Jerusalem.
3 And I set my face unto the Lord God, to seek by prayer and supplications, with fasting, and sackcloth, and ashes:
4 And I prayed unto the Lord my God, and made my confession, and said, O Lord, the great and dreadful God, keeping the covenant and mercy to them that love him, and to them that keep his commandments;
5 We have sinned, and have committed iniquity, and have done wickedly, and have rebelled, even by departing from thy precepts and from thy judgments:
6 Neither have we hearkened unto thy servants the prophets, which spake in thy name to our kings, our princes, and our fathers, and to all the people of the land.
7 O Lord, righteousness belongeth unto thee, but unto us confusion of faces, as at this day; to the men of Judah, and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem, and unto all Israel, that are near, and that are far off, through all the countries whither thou hast driven them, because of their trespass that they have trespassed against thee.
8 O Lord, to us belongeth confusion of face, to our kings, to our princes, and to our fathers, because we have sinned against thee.
9 To the Lord our God belong mercies and forgivenesses, though we have rebelled against him;
10 Neither have we obeyed the voice of the Lord our God, to walk in his laws, which he set before us by his servants the prophets.
11 Yea, all Israel have transgressed thy law, even by departing, that they might not obey thy voice; therefore the curse is poured upon us, and the oath that is written in the law of Moses the servant of God, because we have sinned against him.
12 And he hath confirmed his words, which he spake against us, and against our judges that judged us, by bringing upon us a great evil: for under the whole heaven hath not been done as hath been done upon Jerusalem.
13 As it is written in the law of Moses, all this evil is come upon us: yet made we not our prayer before the Lord our God, that we might turn from our iniquities, and understand thy truth.
14 Therefore hath the Lord watched upon the evil, and brought it upon us: for the Lord our God is righteous in all his works which he doeth: for we obeyed not his voice.
15 And now, O Lord our God, that hast brought thy people forth out of the land of Egypt with a mighty hand, and hast gotten thee renown, as at this day; we have sinned, we have done wickedly.
16 O Lord, according to all thy righteousness, I beseech thee, let thine anger and thy fury be turned away from thy city Jerusalem, thy holy mountain: because for our sins, and for the iniquities of our fathers, Jerusalem and thy people are become a reproach to all that are about us.
17 Now therefore, O our God, hear the prayer of thy servant, and his supplications, and cause thy face to shine upon thy sanctuary that is desolate, for the Lord's sake.
18 O my God, incline thine ear, and hear; open thine eyes, and behold our desolations, and the city which is called by thy name: for we do not present our supplications before thee for our righteousnesses, but for thy great mercies.
19 O Lord, hear; O Lord, forgive; O Lord, hearken and do; defer not, for thine own sake, O my God: for thy city and thy people are called by thy name.
20 And whiles I was speaking, and praying, and confessing my sin and the sin of my people Israel, and presenting my supplication before the Lord my God for the holy mountain of my God;
21 Yea, whiles I was speaking in prayer, even the man Gabriel, whom I had seen in the vision at the beginning, being caused to fly swiftly, touched me about the time of the evening oblation.
22 And he informed me, and talked with me, and said, O Daniel, I am now come forth to give thee skill and understanding.
23 At the beginning of thy supplications the commandment came forth, and I am come to shew thee; for thou art greatly beloved: therefore understand the matter, and consider the vision.
24 Seventy weeks are determined upon thy people and upon thy holy city, to finish the transgression, and to make an end of sins, and to make reconciliation for iniquity, and to bring in everlasting righteousness, and to seal up the vision and prophecy, and to anoint the most Holy.
25 Know therefore and understand, that from the going forth of the commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem unto the Messiah the Prince shall be seven weeks, and threescore and two weeks: the street shall be built again, and the wall, even in troublous times.
26 And after threescore and two weeks shall Messiah be cut off, but not for himself: and the people of the prince that shall come shall destroy the city and the sanctuary; and the end thereof shall be with a flood, and unto the end of the war desolations are determined.
27 And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate.

 

Hebrews 7:
1 For this Melchisedec, king of Salem, priest of the most high God, who met Abraham returning from the slaughter of the kings, and blessed him;
2 To whom also Abraham gave a tenth part of all; first being by interpretation King of righteousness, and after that also King of Salem, which is, King of peace;
3 Without father, without mother, without descent, having neither beginning of days, nor end of life; but made like unto the Son of God; abideth a priest continually.
4 Now consider how great this man was, unto whom even the patriarch Abraham gave the tenth of the spoils.
5 And verily they that are of the sons of Levi, who receive the office of the priesthood, have a commandment to take tithes of the people according to the law, that is, of their brethren, though they come out of the loins of Abraham:
6 But he whose descent is not counted from them received tithes of Abraham, and blessed him that had the promises.
7 And without all contradiction the less is blessed of the better.
8 And here men that die receive tithes; but there he receiveth them, of whom it is witnessed that he liveth.
9 And as I may so say, Levi also, who receiveth tithes, payed tithes in Abraham.
10 For he was yet in the loins of his father, when Melchisedec met him.
11 If therefore perfection were by the Levitical priesthood, (for under it the people received the law,) what further need was there that another priest should rise after the order of Melchisedec, and not be called after the order of Aaron?
12 For the priesthood being changed, there is made of necessity a change also of the law.
13 For he of whom these things are spoken pertaineth to another tribe, of which no man gave attendance at the altar.
14 For it is evident that our Lord sprang out of Juda; of which tribe Moses spake nothing concerning priesthood.
15 And it is yet far more evident: for that after the similitude of Melchisedec there ariseth another priest,
16 Who is made, not after the law of a carnal commandment, but after the power of an endless life.
17 For he testifieth, Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec.
18 For there is verily a disannulling of the commandment going before for the weakness and unprofitableness thereof.
19 For the law made nothing perfect, but the bringing in of a better hope did; by the which we draw nigh unto God. (to enter into the rest).
20 And inasmuch as not without an oath he was made priest:
21 (For those priests were made without an oath; but this with an oath by him that said unto him, The Lord sware and will not repent, Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchisedec:)
22 By so much was Jesus made a surety of a better testament.
23 And they truly were many priests, because they were not suffered to continue by reason of death:
24 But this man, because he continueth ever, hath an unchangeable priesthood.
25 Wherefore he is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by him, seeing he ever liveth to make intercession for them.
26 For such an high priest became us, who is holy, harmless, undefiled, separate from sinners, and made higher than the heavens;
27 Who needeth not daily, as those high priests, to offer up sacrifice, first for his own sins, and then for the people's: for this he did once, when he offered up himself.
28 For the law maketh men high priests which have infirmity; but the word of the oath, which was since the law, maketh the Son, who is consecrated for evermore.

Galatians 4:
1 Now I say, That the heir, as long as he is a child, differeth nothing from a servant, though he be lord of all;
2 But is under tutors and governors until the time appointed of the father.
3 Even so we, when we were children, were in bondage under the elements of the world:
4 But when the fulness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the law,
5 To redeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons.
6 And because ye are sons, God hath sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father.
7 Wherefore thou art no more a servant, but a son; and if a son, then an heir of God through Christ.
8 Howbeit then, when ye knew not God, ye did service unto them which by nature are no gods.
9 But now, after that ye have known God, or rather are known of God, how turn ye again to the weak and beggarly elements, whereunto ye desire again to be in bondage?
10 Ye observe days, and months, and times, and years.
11 I am afraid of you, lest I have bestowed upon you labour in vain.
12 Brethren, I beseech you, be as I am; for I am as ye are: ye have not injured me at all.
13 Ye know how through infirmity of the flesh I preached the gospel unto you at the first.
14 And my temptation which was in my flesh ye despised not, nor rejected; but received me as an angel of God, even as Christ Jesus.
15 Where is then the blessedness ye spake of? for I bear you record, that, if it had been possible, ye would have plucked out your own eyes, and have given them to me.
16 Am I therefore become your enemy, because I tell you the truth?
17 They zealously affect you, but not well; yea, they would exclude you, that ye might affect them.
18 But it is good to be zealously affected always in a good thing, and not only when I am present with you.
19 My little children, of whom I travail in birth again until Christ be formed in you,
20 I desire to be present with you now, and to change my voice; for I stand in doubt of you.
21 Tell me, ye that desire to be under the law, do ye not hear the law?
22 For it is written, that Abraham had two sons, the one by a bondmaid, the other by a freewoman.
23 But he who was of the bondwoman was born after the flesh; but he of the freewoman was by promise.
24 Which things are an allegory: for these are the two covenants; the one from the mount Sinai, which gendereth to bondage, which is Agar.
25 For this Agar is mount Sinai in Arabia, and answereth to Jerusalem which now is, and is in bondage with her children.
26 But Jerusalem which is above is free, which is the mother of us all.
27 For it is written, Rejoice, thou barren that bearest not; break forth and cry, thou that travailest not: for the desolate hath many more children than she which hath an husband.
28 Now we, brethren, as Isaac was, are the children of promise.
29 But as then he that was born after the flesh persecuted him that was born after the Spirit, even so it is now.
30 Nevertheless what saith the scripture? Cast out the bondwoman and her son: for the son of the bondwoman shall not be heir with the son of the freewoman.
31 So then, brethren, we are not children of the bondwoman, but of the free.

 

Galatians 5:
1 Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage.
2 Behold, I Paul say unto you, that if ye be circumcised, Christ shall profit you nothing.
3 For I testify again to every man that is circumcised, that he is a debtor to do the whole law.
4 Christ is become of no effect unto you, whosoever of you are justified by the law; ye are fallen from grace.
5 For we through the Spirit wait for the hope of righteousness by faith.
6 For in Jesus Christ neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision; but faith which worketh by love.
7 Ye did run well; who did hinder you that ye should not obey the truth?
8 This persuasion cometh not of him that calleth you.
9 A little leaven leaveneth the whole lump.
10 I have confidence in you through the Lord, that ye will be none otherwise minded: but he that troubleth you shall bear his judgment, whosoever he be.
11 And I, brethren, if I yet preach circumcision, why do I yet suffer persecution? then is the offence of the cross ceased.
12 I would they were even cut off which trouble you.
13 For, brethren, ye have been called unto liberty; only use not liberty for an occasion to the flesh, but by love serve one another.
14 For all the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this; Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
15 But if ye bite and devour one another, take heed that ye be not consumed one of another.
16 This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh.
17 For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the things that ye would.
18 But if ye be led of the Spirit, ye are not under the law.
19 Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are these; Adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lasciviousness,
20 Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, variance, emulations, wrath, strife, seditions, heresies,
21 Envyings, murders, drunkenness, revellings, and such like: of the which I tell you before, as I have also told you in time past, that they which do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.
22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,
23 Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.
24 And they that are Christ's have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts.
25 If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.
26 Let us not be desirous of vain glory, provoking one another, envying one another.

 

Colossians 2:
16 Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holyday, or of the new moon, or of the sabbath days:

17 Which are a shadow of things to come; but the body is of Christ.
18 Let no man beguile you of your reward in a voluntary humility and worshipping of angels, intruding into those things which he hath not seen, vainly puffed up by his fleshly mind,
19 And not holding the Head, from which all the body by joints and bands having nourishment ministered, and knit together, increaseth with the increase of God.
20 Wherefore if ye be dead with Christ from the rudiments of the world, why, as though living in the world, are ye subject to ordinances,
21 (Touch not; taste not; handle not;
22 Which all are to perish with the using;) after the commandments and doctrines of men?
23 Which things have indeed a shew of wisdom in will worship, and humility, and neglecting of the body: not in any honour to the satisfying of the flesh.
22 Which all are to perish with the using;) after the commandments and doctrines of men?
23 Which things have indeed a shew of wisdom in will worship, and humility, and neglecting of the body: not in any honour to the satisfying of the flesh.

 

Romans 7:
1 Know ye not, brethren, (for I speak to them that know the law,) how that the law hath dominion over a man as long as he liveth?
2 For the woman which hath an husband is bound by the law to her husband so long as he liveth; but if the husband be dead, she is loosed from the law of her husband.
3 So then if, while her husband liveth, she be married to another man, she shall be called an adulteress: but if her husband be dead, she is free from that law; so that she is no adulteress, though she be married to another man.
4 Wherefore, my brethren, ye also are become dead to the law by the body of Christ; that ye should be married to another, even to him who is raised from the dead, that we should bring forth fruit unto God.
5 For when we were in the flesh, the motions of sins, which were by the law, did work in our members to bring forth fruit unto death.
6 But now we are delivered from the law, that being dead wherein we were held; that we should serve in newness of spirit, and not in the oldness of the letter.
7 What shall we say then? Is the law sin? God forbid. Nay, I had not known sin, but by the law: for I had not known lust, except the law had said, Thou shalt not covet.
8 But sin, taking occasion by the commandment, wrought in me all manner of concupiscence. For without the law sin was dead.
9 For I was alive without the law once: but when the commandment came, sin revived, and I died.
10 And the commandment, which was ordained to life, I found to be unto death.
11 For sin, taking occasion by the commandment, deceived me, and by it slew me.
12 Wherefore the law is holy, and the commandment holy, and just, and good.
13 Was then that which is good made death unto me? God forbid. But sin, that it might appear sin, working death in me by that which is good; that sin by the commandment might become exceeding sinful.
14 For we know that the law is spiritual: but I am carnal, sold under sin.
15 For that which I do I allow not: for what I would, that do I not; but what I hate, that do I.
16 If then I do that which I would not, I consent unto the law that it is good.
17 Now then it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me.
18 For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh,) dwelleth no good thing: for to will is present with me; but how to perform that which is good I find not.
19 For the good that I would I do not: but the evil which I would not, that I do.
20 Now if I do that I would not, it is no more I that do it, but sin that dwelleth in me.
21 I find then a law, that, when I would do good, evil is present with me.
22 For I delight in the law of God after the inward man:
23 But I see another law in my members, warring against the law of my mind, and bringing me into captivity to the law of sin which is in my members.
24 O wretched man that I am! who shall deliver me from the body of this death?
25 I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord. So then with the mind I myself serve the law of God; but with the flesh the law of sin.

 

4Q174 - Building a Temple of Men
This is an excerpt from one of the Qumran scrolls, written by a member of the community of Jews who chose to seclude themselves in the desert opposite the Dead Sea. The text belongs to the very beginning of the first century CE and speaks of the community’s understanding of God’s true dwelling place. The scroll speaks of God building a “temple of men” (מקדש אדם) that cannot be destroyed or defiled by foreigners. Consider it as parallel to NT idea of temple being made from human beings (1 Cor 3:16, Eph 2:21). The larger passage is a Midrash on 2 Sam 7 and Ps 1 which speaks the fallen tent of David and the promise of the seed, the Messiah himself.

 

1 [will] an enemy [strike him any]more, 2 Sam 7:10 [nor will] a son of iniquity [afflict] him [aga]in as in the past. From the day on which 2 [I appointed judges] over my people, Israel». This (refers to) the house which [he will establish] for [him] in the last days, as is written in the book of 3 [Moses: Exod 15:17–18 «The temple of] YHWH your hands will est[a]blish. YHWH shall reign forever and ever». This (refers to) the house into which shall not enter4 [… for] ever either an Ammonite, or a Moabite, or a bastard, or a foreigner, or a proselyte, never, because his holy ones are there.

 

5 «Y[HW]H [shall reign for] ever». He will appear over it forever; foreigners shall not again lay it waste as they laid waste, in the past, 6 the tem[ple of I]srael on account of their sins. And he commanded to build for himself a temple of man, to offer him in it, 7 before him, the works of thanksgiving. And as for what he said to David: 2 Sam 7:11 «I [shall obtain] for you [rest] from all your enemies»: (it refers to this,) that he will obtain for them rest from a[ll] (4Q174 Martı́nez and Tigchelaar Translation)

 

Text in [] is a reconstruct and is missing from the original scroll.

Jeremiah 31:
35 Thus saith the Lord, which giveth the sun for a light by day, and the ordinances of the moon and of the stars for a light by night, which divideth the sea when the waves thereof roar; The Lord of hosts is his name:
36 If those ordinances depart from before me, saith the Lord, then the seed of Israel also shall cease from being a nation before me for ever.
37 Thus saith the Lord; If heaven above can be measured, and the foundations of the earth searched out beneath, I will also cast off all the seed of Israel for all that they have done, saith the Lord.
38 Behold, the days come, saith the Lord, that the city shall be built to the Lord from the tower of Hananeel unto the gate of the corner.
39 And the measuring line shall yet go forth over against it upon the hill Gareb, and shall compass about to Goath.
40 And the whole valley of the dead bodies, and of the ashes, and all the fields unto the brook of Kidron, unto the corner of the horse gate toward the east, shall be holy unto the Lord; it shall not be plucked up, nor thrown down any more for ever.

15 In dezelfde dagen zag ik in Juda, die persen traden op den sabbat, en die garven inbrachten, die zij op ezels laadden; als ook wijn, druiven en vijgen, en allen last, dien zij te Jeruzalem inbrachten op den sabbatdag; en ik betuigde tegen hen ten dage, als zij eetwaren verkochten.
16 Daar waren ook Tyriërs binnen, die vis aanbrachten, en alle koopwaren, die zij op den sabbat verkochten aan de kinderen van Juda en te Jeruzalem.
17 Zo twistte ik met de edelen van Juda, en zeide tot hen: Wat voor een boos ding is dit, dat gijlieden doet, en ontheiligt den sabbatdag?
18 Deden niet uw vaders alzo, en onze God bracht al dit kwaad over ons en over deze stad? En gijlieden maakt de hittige gramschap nog meer over Israël, ontheiligende den sabbat.
19 Het geschiedde nu, als de poorten van Jeruzalem schaduw gaven, voor den sabbat, dat ik bevel gaf, en de deuren werden gesloten; en ik beval, dat zij ze niet zouden opendoen tot na den sabbat; en ik stelde van mijn jongens aan de poorten, opdat er geen last zou inkomen op den sabbatdag.
20 Toen vernachtten de kramers, en de verkopers van alle koopwaren, buiten voor Jeruzalem, eens of tweemaal.
21 Zo betuigde ik tegen hen, en zeide tot hen: Waarom vernacht gijlieden tegenover den muur? Zo gij het weder doet, zal ik de hand aan u slaan. Van dien tijd af kwamen zij niet op den sabbat.
22 Voorts zeide ik tot de Levieten, dat zij zich zouden reinigen, en de poorten komen wachten, om den sabbatdag te heiligen. Gedenk mijner ook in dezen, mijn God! en verschoon mij naar de veelheid Uwer goedertierenheid.
23 Ook zag ik in die dagen Joden, die Asdodische, Ammonietische en Moabietische vrouwen bij zich hadden doen wonen.
24 En hun kinderen spraken half Asdodisch, en zij konden geen Joods spreken, maar naar de taal eens iegelijken volks.

Lukas 10
Maria en Martha
38 En het geschiedde, als zij reisden, dat Hij kwam in een vlek; en een zekere vrouw, met name Martha, ontving Hem in haar huis.
39 En deze had een zuster, genaamd Maria, welke ook, zittende aan de voeten van Jezus, Zijn woord hoorde.
40 Doch Martha was zeer bezig met veel dienens, en daarbij komende, zeide zij: Heere, trekt Gij U dat niet aan, dat mijn zuster mij alleen laat dienen? Zeg dan haar, dat zij mij helpe.
41 En Jezus, antwoordende, zeide tot haar: Martha, Martha, gij bekommert en ontrust u over vele dingen;
42 Maar één ding is nodig; doch Maria heeft het goede deel uitgekozen, hetwelk van haar niet zal weggenomen worden.

Hebreeën 4
1 Laat ons dan vrezen, dat niet te eniger tijd, de belofte van in Zijn rust in te gaan nagelaten zijnde, iemand van u schijne achtergebleven te zijn.
2 Want ook ons is het Evangelie verkondigd, gelijk als hun; maar het woord der prediking deed hun geen nut, dewijl het met het geloof niet gemengd was in degenen, die het gehoord hebben.
3 Want wij, die geloofd hebben, gaan in de rust, gelijk Hij gezegd heeft: Zo heb Ik dan gezworen in Mijn toorn: Indien zij zullen ingaan in Mijn rust! hoewel Zijn werken van de grondlegging der wereld af al volbracht waren.
4 Want Hij heeft ergens van den zevenden dag aldus gesproken: En God heeft op den zevenden dag van al Zijn werken gerust.
5 En in deze plaats wederom: Indien zij in Mijn rust zullen ingaan!
6 Dewijl dan blijft, dat sommigen in dezelve rust ingaan, en degenen, wien het Evangelie eerst verkondigd was, niet ingegaan zijn vanwege de ongehoorzaamheid,
7 Zo bepaalt Hij wederom een zekeren dag, namelijk heden, door David zeggende, zo langen tijd daarna (gelijkerwijs gezegd is): Heden, indien gij Zijn stem hoort, zo verhardt uw harten niet.
8 Want indien Jozua hen in de rust gebracht heeft, zo had Hij daarna niet gesproken van een anderen dag.
9 Er blijft dan een rust over voor het volk Gods.
10 Want die ingegaan is in zijn rust, heeft zelf ook van zijn werken gerust, gelijk God van de Zijne.
11 Laat ons dan ons benaarstigen, om in die rust in te gaan; opdat niet iemand in hetzelfde voorbeeld der ongelovigheid valle.
12 Want het Woord Gods is levend en krachtig, en scherpsnijdender dan enig tweesnijdend zwaard, en gaat door tot de verdeling der ziel, en des geestes, en der samenvoegselen, en des mergs, en is een oordeler der gedachten en der overleggingen des harten.
13 En er is geen schepsel onzichtbaar voor Hem; maar alle dingen zijn naakt en geopend voor de ogen Desgenen, met Welken wij te doen hebben.
Christus overtreft de hogepriesters van het oude verbond.
14 Dewijl wij dan een groten Hogepriester hebben, Die door de hemelen doorgegaan is, namelijk Jezus, den Zoon van God, zo laat ons deze belijdenis vasthouden.
15 Want wij hebben geen hogepriester, die niet kan medelijden hebben met onze zwakheden, maar Die in alle dingen, gelijk als wij, is verzocht geweest, doch zonder zonde.
16 Laat ons dan met vrijmoedigheid toegaan tot den troon der genade, opdat wij barmhartigheid mogen verkrijgen, en genade vinden, om geholpen te worden ter bekwamer tijd.

 

Gewijde rust op de wekelijkse sabbatdag
In het Oude Testament zien we een sterke nadruk op het begrip 'sabbat' in de betekenis van 'gewijde rustperiode'. Het meest bekend is de wekelijkse sabbatdag, de zevende dag van elke week die bij ons 'zaterdag' heet. Volgens de joodse traditie begint de sabbatdag op vrijdag bij zonsondergang en duurt die tot zaterdag bij zonsondergang. Op de sabbatdag mogen joden geen werk doen. In de tijd van het Oude Testament moesten de priesters op de sabbatdag dag wel de dagelijkse offers brengen, zelfs nog meer dan op doordeweekse dagen (Numeri 28:9-10).

"Houd de sabbat in ere, het is een heilige dag. Zes dagen lang kunt u werken en al uw arbeid verrichten, maar de zevende dag is een rustdag, die gewijd is aan de HEER, uw God; dan mag u niet werken. Dat geldt voor u, voor uw zonen en dochters, voor uw slaven en slavinnen, voor uw vee, en ook voor vreemdelingen die bij u in de stad wonen. Want in zes dagen heeft de HEER (YHWH) de hemel en de aarde gemaakt, en de zee met alles wat er leeft, en op de zevende dag rustte hij. Daarom heeft de HEER (YHWH) de sabbat gezegend en heilig verklaard." (Exodus 20:8-11, NBV2004)
De wekelijkse sabbatdag werd en wordt door de joden niet zozeer onderhouden als een godsdienstige verplichting, maar op een feestelijke manier gevierd als een godsgeschenk. Zij zien het vooral als een heilige dag, waarop de mens zijn zorgen van zich af zet, zich niet bezighoudt met wereldse belangen, maar zichzelf wijdt aan geestelijke zaken en ontmoetingen met volksgenoten. Men viert de sabbatdag daarom pas volledig, wanneer deze dag niet alleen in lichamelijke rust wordt doorgebracht, maar ook met het verrijken van de geest.

Tot op vandaag wordt de joodse sabbatviering beleefd als het hoogtepunt van de week. De sabbatdag wordt ingeleid met een speciale sabbatmaaltijd. De ouders zegenen elkaar en hun kinderen en staan stil bij al het goede dat ze van God hebben ontvangen. Een aardig detail daarbij is dat er tijdens een sabbatmaaltijd alleen over plezierige en positieve onderwerpen gesproken mag worden. God wil ons leren wat dankbaarheid, vrolijkheid en blijheid is. Juist die sabbatvieringen binden de gezinsleden aan elkaar tot een harmonische eenheid; ze worden als een grote zegen ervaren. Christenen kunnen nog heel wat leren van joodse tradities en van de manier waarop zij uiterlijk aandoende tradities weten te onderhouden om het innerlijke leven te versterken.

Het belang van de sabbatdag
De instelling van de sabbatdag was een van de eerste geboden van God aan het volk Israël, zelf nog voor de wetgeving bij de berg Sinaï. Al toen het volk Israël na hun uittocht uit Egypte bij de eerste oase kampeerde gaf God hen al een aantal voorschriften:

"Daar in de woestijn gaf de HEER hun wetten en regels..." (Exodus 15:25, NBV2004)
Dit zinnetje staat heel onopvallend in de geschiedenis van het ondrinkbare water bij Mara. Je leest er gemakkelijk overheen. In Exodus 16 lezen we dat God dagelijks hemelbrood gaf, maar dat de zevende dag een uitzonderingspositie innam. Op die dag zou er geen hemelbrood komen en de dag ervoor moest er dus een dubbele portie worden verzameld. Kortom: niet werken, maar genieten van de sabbatsrust, een dag niet werken, maar vertrouwen op Gods voorzienigheid. Met andere woorden: het sabbatgebod moet toen al bekend zijn geweest bij het volk Israël.

Het sabbatsgebod was zo belangrijk dat overtreders de doodstraf verdienden. In Numeri 15:32-36 wordt beschreven dat iemand gestenigd moest worden omdat hij op sabbatdag brandhout gesprokkeld had. God beschouwde dit ontheiligen van de sabbatdag als een opstandige afwijzing van Hemzelf. Gods sabbatsgebod is werkelijk een zaak van leven of dood. Het ging God natuurlijk niet om die paar houtjes die de man bij elkaar sprokkelde, maar op de onverschilligheid waarmee die persoon moedwillig tegen Gods wil inging. Zo'n onverschillige houding wekt Gods rechtvaardige toorn op.

Ook in Jeremia 17:19-27 lezen we hoe zeer God het volk Israël kwalijk nam als de sabbatdag werd veronachtzaamd. 
De wet van Mozes vermeldt de volgende activiteiten die op de sabbatdag niet mogen worden uitgevoerd:

dagelijks werk doen (Exodus 20:9-10)
vuur aansteken (Exodus 35:3)
voedsel bereiden (Exodus 16:23-27)
hout sprokkelen (Numeri 15:32-36)
oogst binnenhalen (Exodus 34:21)
reizen (Exodus 16:29)
kopen en verkopen (Nehemia 10:31, NBV2004)
Het sabbatgebod is als enige ceremoniële gebod in de Tien Geboden opgenomen. Dat zegt iets over het belang van dit gebod voor het volk Israël en op een nieuwtestamentische manier ook voor de gelovigen onder het Nieuwe Verbond, namelijk dat 'rusten in de Heer' van levensbelang is. Dat is leven vanuit de zekerheid van Gods genade en beloften.

Jezus en de sabbatdag
Toen de farizeeën Jezus bekritiseerden omdat zijn discipelen op de sabbatdag bij een korenveld een paar graankorrels fijnwreven om ze vervolgens op te eten, irriteerde Hij zich enorm aan hun muggenzifterij. 

Jezus zei:
"...De sabbat is er voor de mens, en niet de mens voor de sabbat..." (Marcus 2:27, NBV2004)
Hiermee gaf Jezus aan dat de sabbatdag was bedoeld als geschenk, niet als onderwerp voor pietluttige debatten over wat wel en niet mag. (De farizeeërs en wetgeleerden gingen er zelf geboden erbij verzinnen die ze boven YHWH's geboden zetten en veel belangrijker gingen vinden. Dat was waar Yeshua tegen in ging).

Soms krijg je het idee dat Jezus expres op de sabbatdag mensen genas om wettisch ingestelde mensen aan het denken te zetten. In Matteüs 12:9-14 legt Jezus als voorbeeld uit dat je op de sabbatdag ook wel schapen uit de put haalt als het nodig is. Zelfs het leven van dieren is belangrijker dan een ceremonieel gebod.

Daarbij zei Jezus:
"En is een mens niet veel meer waard dan een schaap? Daaruit volgt dat we op sabbat goed mogen doen." (Matteüs 12:12, NBV2004)
Na deze woorden genas Jezus iemand. Zo komen we terug bij Gods oorspronkelijke bedoeling van de sabbatdag: het welzijn voor de mensen. Jezus hield zich aan de sabbat, maar negeerde de extra regeltjes van de joodse leiders. Gods leefregels zijn functioneel, maar niet pietluttig.

Het niet werken op de sabbatdag is geen doel op zich. Het is een afbeelding van de innerlijke rust die God wil geven aan mensen die God vertrouwen voor al hun behoeften. De traditie van het onderhouden van de sabbatdag is bedoeld als een ondersteuning voor het 'onderhouden' van de innerlijke rust van de gelovige. En juist die innerlijke betekenis is van belang binnen de nieuwtestamentische Gemeente.

Gods doel met de sabbatdag
Kortom, God had aan de Israëlieten de sabbatdag gegeven (Exodus 20:8-11) als een gewijde rustdag met de volgende bedoelingen:

om stil te staan bij God, en zijn diepgaande verbondenheid met het volk en Hem daarvoor te eren,
om te genieten van Gods zegeningen,
om uit te rusten van de dagelijkse werkzaamheden en zodoende nieuwe kracht te putten (recreatie),
om te beseffen en te geloven dat ze hun welzijn en welvaart niet hadden te danken aan eigen inspanning, maar aan God en dat God zegent wie naar zijn wil leeft in verbondenheid met Hem.
Dat was een heel unieke instelling en in vergelijking met de opvattingen van die tijd regelrecht revolutionair. Het volk Israël was dan ook zeer bevoorrecht met Gods leefregels, want ze vormden de sleutel tot het hoogst denkbare welzijn van een volk op aarde!

Andere sabbatten
Daarnaast spreekt de Bijbel over het sabbatjaar: elk zevende jaar waarin het bouwland rust moest hebben en er geen gewassen mochten worden verbouwd. Tenslotte was er het jubeljaar, in het jaar na elk zevende sabbatjaar (dus om de vijftig jaar), waarin ieder die slaaf geworden was zijn vrijheid moest herkrijgen en het land aan zijn oorspronkelijke eigenaren moest worden teruggeven. Je kunt in Leviticus 25 lezen over deze verschillende sabbatten.

De profeet Ezechiël geeft de volgende woorden van God weer:
"Ook gaf ik hun (= het volk Israël) mijn sabbatten als een teken tussen Mij en hen, opdat zij zouden weten, dat Ik, de HERE (YHWH), hen heilig. Mijn sabbatten ontheiligden zij ten zeerste, zodat ik overwoog mijn grimmigheid in de woestijn over hen uit te storten ter vernietiging." (Ezechiël 20:12-13, NBG1951)

De NBG1951 vertaling geeft terecht het meervoud 'sabbatten' weer, terwijl andere vertalingen het als enkelvoud weergeven en waardoor het alleen op de wekelijkse sabbatdag lijkt te slaan. Gods sabbatten waren belangrijk, want daarin wilde God de mensen juist zegenen. Het is duidelijk dat het afwijzen van die geschenken gelijk staat met het beledigen en afwijzen van de Gever. Sabbatten waren immers veel meer dan door God ingestelde plichtplegingen.

Joodse tradities

"Mijn mening: Eigenlijk is er niemand Jood (Rom 2:29) en heiden op het eind, want wij stammen allemaal van Adam af. En nu wij de zijtakken van de olijfbomen zijn dan vallen wij allemaal weer onder hetzelfde volk Israël. Niet alle regels die de Joden gebruiken zijn van YHWH, maar door mensen erbij gemaakt en belangrijker gesteld boven die van YHWH dit was een reden van Yashua tegen hun in te gaan."

Wie is er Jood? Volgens het Joodse geloof is iedere jongen of meisje geboren uit een Joodse moeder een Jood. Het is niet mogelijk dit Joods zijn op te geven. 
"Mijn mening: DIT IS EEN LEUGEN WANT JEZUS STAMT AF VAN EEN MANNELIJKE LIJN (12 generatie) alleen zijn moeder (13e generatie) is vrouwelijk.
En ik vindt dit vreemd Joden erkennen Jezus niet maar wel de vrouwelijke lijn van het Joods zijn?"

De besnijdenis en de bar-mitzwa
Joodse jongens worden besneden als ze 8 dagen oud zijn, ze worden besneden door een moheel (de besnijder). Hij verwijdert met een scherp mesje de voorhuid van de penis. Door deze behandeling word het besneden jongentje opgenomen in het verbond dat God met Abraham maakte. 

Op 13-jarige leeftijd wordt de Joodse jongen volwassen, dit heet bar-mitzwa. Hij moet dan in de synagoge een deel van de Thora (de Joodse bijbel) voorlezen.

De Thora
In de Thora staan alle regels waarna de Joden moeten leven. Er zijn meer dan 613 regels! De bekendste zijn de voedsel- of spijswetten. Een Jood mag geen varkensvlees eten, want het vlees van een varken wordt in de spijswetten als onrein beschouwd. 

In Leviticus 11 staat:`Jullie mogen alle dieren eten die op het land leven, als ze maar volledig gespleten hoeven hebben en ook herkauwen' 

Het varken herkauwt niet dus zullen gelovige Joden dit vlees niet eten. 

Alle dieren die gegeten mogen worden, moeten door een speciale slager worden geslacht.
In Joodse keukens hebben ze ook vaak speciale pannen voor zuivelproducten en speciale pannen voor het vlees. Want in het Deuteronomium staat dat je geen vlees mag koken in de melk van de moeder. (Dit is waar Yeshua het oneens was met de Farizieers).

De sabbat
"6 dagen zullen jullie werken maar op de zevende moet je rusten"

Als jood, mag je niet op de dag van de sabbat werken, jij niet en je gezin niet. Zelfs het vee moet op die dag kunnen genieten van de rust. Want in 6 dagen heeft God hemel en aarde geschapen, de zee en al wat daarin is en Hij ruste uit op de zevende dag. Daarom heeft God de sabbat tot een zegen gemaakt (Exodus 20 : 8-11)

Er zijn 2 redenen waarom de jood sabbat moet viert. Ten eerste om de schepping te herdenken, en ten tweede om de uittocht uit Egypte te herdenken. 

De sabbatrust begint op vrijdagavond, kort voor de zonsondergang. Alle dingen zijn dan gedaan voor zaterdag, zoals de maaltijden en zelfs de telefoon wordt uitgeschakeld. Als het mogelijk is gaan de man en de kinderen naar de synagoge. En thuis maakt de vrouw de sabbatmaaltijd klaar of beter gezegd ze zet het op tafel, en steekt het sabbatlicht aan. Als de man en de kinderen thuis zijn gekomen uit de synagoge worden de kinderen door hun ouders gezegend. Daar zegenen ze ook de wijn en de 2 challes (gevlochten broden). Dan gaat het gezin eten.

Tijdens het eten worden er liturgische liederen gezongen ter ere van God, en de sfeer is die van diepe rust en harmonie.
In de ochtend van de sabbatdag woont het gezin eerst de synagogendienst bij, daarnaast is men ook verplicht die dag 3 keer te bidden.
Bij het ontbijt na de synogogedienst wordt opnieuw de wijn en de challes gezegend. ´s Middags wordt er gewandeld en spelletjes gespeeld of ze gingen op visite. Maar de grootste bedoeling van de sabbat is om veel te leren van het Jodendom.

De sabbat word beschouwd als een wekelijkse verering van God. De enige dag waarop de Joden gaan nadenken over zichzelf, en de tijd nemen voor zichzelf en voor anderen. 

De synagoge
Op vrijdagavond begint de sabbat. Op die dag houden de Joden hun godsdienstoefeningen in de synagoge. Omdat de Joden uit eerbied voor God niet willen dat iemand zonder hoofdbedekking in de synagoge komt, moeten alle mannelijke Joden een keppeltje dragen. Omdat de vrouwen geen deel nemen in de eredienst nemen ze plaats op de galerij. Het orthodoxe Jodendom ziet het werk in het huishouden als de dagelijkse godsdienstoefening van de vrouw. 

Zo`n dienst word geleid door de voorzangers. Eén van de chazans (voorzangers) opent de dienst door een gedeelte uit het Bijbelboek Psalmen te zingen. De rabbijn, de geestelijke leider van de gemeente, neemt een Thorarol uit de Heilige Ark. De Heilige Ark is een kast of een nis aan de oostkant van de synagoge. De rabbijn draagt de Thorarol naar de biema, de tribune vanwaar vanaf de Torarol wordt voor gelezen. De tekst is geschreven in het Hebreeuws en wordt gelezen van rechts naar links. De voorlezer gebruikt daarbij een jat, dit is een aanwijsstokje in de vorm van een hand met daarin een gestrekte vinger. De Thora wordt in één jaar tijd helemaal uit gelezen. Als de voorlezer een deel heeft voorgelezen, houdt de Rabbijn een korte preek. Er staat altijd een rode lamp vlak voor de Heilige Ark te branden. Rechts van de preekstoel staat een zevenarmige kandelaar te branden genaamd: de menora. Links en rechts van de biema hangen twee bordjes met daarop de tien geboden.

Het gebed
Het eerste wat een jood doet als hij wakker wordt, is zijn handen wassen om daarmee rein en onbevlekt tegenover God te staan. 

Een traditionele jood staat altijd vroeg op om na het reinigen het ochtendgebed te kunnen uitspreken. Als het even kan, doen ze het liefst samen met andere mensen. s`Middags bidden ze ook, maar alleen wat korter, ook s`avonds gaan ze bidden alleen dan bidden ze wel veel langer. En er wordt ook voor het slapen gaan gebeden.
Er wordt ook gebeden tijdens speciale feesten of bijeenkomsten. Tevens spreekt men een gebed op voor het eten, na het eten, bij onweer, bij het zien van een regenboog, oceaan, vallende ster, de nieuwe maan, bij het zien van een geleerde of iemand van koningshuis. 
Men moet zich elk moment bewust zijn van zijn goddelijke oorsprong en als een zo goed mogelijk mens leven.
Het Joodse Gebed bevat veel meer dan alleen vragen aan God. Het is eerder een gesprek tussen God en de mensen, daarom kon na de verwoesting van de Tempel 70 jr na Chr. het normale offeren vervangen worden door gebed.

Gebedskleding
Als een Jood gaat bidden draagt hij een witte mantel met hemelsblauwe strepen. De naam van deze mantel is tallith, letterlijk `lok', `kwast', naar de kwasten waarmee de hoeken zijn afgezet. Deze kwasten waarschuwen de gelovige Joden om zich niet te laten verleiden door de aardse verleidingen. Als de Joden dagelijks hun voorgeschreven gebed uitspreken dragen ze ook nog een tefillin, met andere woorden gebedsriem. Op deze gebedsriem zijn kleine kubussen genaaid de zogenaamde `huisjes'. In deze huisjes bevindt zich een woord namelijk `Sjaddia', 'Almachtige'. Alleen tijdens het avondgebed wordt de gebedsriem niet omgedaan.

Joodse feesten
Ondanks de vele regels en verplichtingen is het Joodse geloof geen saai geloof, in tegendeel zelfs, want de joden geloven niet zoals de vele andere godsdiensten dat de mens `slecht en verdorven' is, maar ze geloven dat de mens zelf mag kiezen tussen goed en kwaad. Maar als iemand voor het kwade kiest en daar oprecht berouw van heeft, dan zal God hem ook vergeving schenken. Dus kunnen ook de vrome Joden een lekkere borrel nemen en feest vieren. In de Joodse godsdienst spelen ook feesten een belangrijke rol. Maar ook is elk feest een herdenking van een belangrijke gebeurtenis in het Joodse bestaan. De belangrijkste feesten zijn:

Rosj - ha - sjana: Dit is het Joodse nieuwjaarsfeest dat in september wordt gevierd, toen bij ons 1998 begon, waren de Joden al in 5759. In de synagoge blaast men dan op de sjofar, dit is een ramshoorn. En aan tafel eet men dan appel gedoopt in honing. Daarbij wordt dan de traditionele nieuwjaarswens uit gesproken.

Jom - Kippoer: Met andere woorden de grote verzoendag. Het wordt tien dagen na het nieuwjaars feest gehouden. Op deze dag bidt men om de vergeving van de zonden van het Joodse volk.

Soekkoth: Het loofhuttenfeest valt direct met de grote verzoendag. Op deze dag bouwt ieder gezin een loofhut en woont 8 dagen in deze hut en dan herdenken ze de uittocht uit Egypte.

Chanoeka: De Joden herdenken dan de inwijding van de Tempel 104 jr v. Chr.

Poerim: het feest van de Loten herinnert de Joden aan de gebeurtenissen van tijdens de Babylonische ballingschap. Gelukkig kon toen uitroeiing van het Joodse volk verhindert worden door een Joodse prinses Esther, die toen met de Perzische koning was getrouwd en op haar voorspraak liet de koning de vervolgingen stoppen.

Pesach: Dit is het Joodse paasfeest. De redding van het Joodse volk uit Egypte wordt dan herdacht. (Eerste dag van het nieuwjaar)
