:

18 and they that were oppressed with unclean spirits and they were cured. 19 And the whole multitude sought to touch him: because power went forth from him, and healed all.

CH. VIII. And it came to pass in the course of events, that he journeyed throughout city and village, preaching, and knpvorov publishing the glad tidings of the kingdom of God. And the twelve were with him, 2 and certain women, who had been healed of evil spirits and infirmities, Mary called Magdalene, from whom had gone forth seven demons, and Joanna the wife of Chuza Herod's steward, and Susanna, and many others, who ministered unto him from their substance.

Here St. Luke inserts the Discourse which St. Matthew introduces (Sect. iv.) at an earlier period. The portion next given from ch. viii. appears to refer to this second progress through Galilee, since "the twelve were now with him." It suits no period after their return.

SECT. XI.

The Apostles instructed both for their present Mission, and for their future Service, and then sent forth into various parts of Galilee.

MATT. X.

and charged them that they should take nothing for the way, except a staff only; no bag, no bread, no brass in the purse: 9 but to be shod with sandals; and "do not put on two vests."

be not worthy, let your
peace return to you.*
14 And whosoever shall
not receive you, nor hear
your words, when ye go
out of the house, or of that
city, shake off the dust
of your feet.
15 Verily I
say unto you, It will be
more tolerable for the
land of Sodom and
Gomorrha in the day of
judgment, than for that
city.

16" Behold, I send you
forth as sheep amidst
wolves be ye therefore
wise as serpents, and
harmless as doves. 17 But
beware of men for they
will deliver you up to
councils, and will scourge
you in their synagogues;
18 and ye will be brought
before
and
governors
kings for my sake, for a
testimony to them and
to the Gentiles. 19 But
when they deliver you
up,

take no anxious thought how or what ye shall speak; (for it shall be given you in that same hour what ye shall speak); 20 for it is not ye that speak, but the spirit of your Father which speaketh in you.

But he that endureth to the end shall be saved. 23 But when they persecute you in this city, flee ye into another; and if they persecute you out of this, flee ye into another: * for verily I say unto you, ye shall not finish the cities of Israel, until the Son of

man come.

24 "The disciple is not above the teacher; nor the servant above his master. 25 It is enough for the disciple that he be as his teacher, and the servant as his master. If they have surnamed the master of the house Beelzebub, how much more will they so call them of his household.

26 Fear them not therefore: for there is nothing covered, which shall not be revealed; and hidden, which shall not be known. 27 That which I say to you in the darkness, speak ye in the light: and that which ye hear in the ear, proclaim ye upon the housetops. 28 And fear not any thing from them that kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but

Lachman inserts it as Griesbach.

34 "Think not that I have come to send peace on the land; I have come not to send peace but a sword. 35 For I have come to set a man at variance against his father, and a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law: 36 and a man's foes will be those of his own household.

• Lit. an As, aσcapiov.-This was a brass coin of the value of one-tenth of a denarius (or drachma),

i. e. of rather more than three farthings; but it is here well represented by farthing, as our smallest coin. The future of the Greek is well represented here by our aorist. Such, probably, was the force of the word employed in the original Gospel.

The original is €žovσia, commonly rendered authority.
