Jesus left that place and went off to the territory near the cities of Tyre and Sidon.

You know about Jesus of Nazareth and how God poured out on him the Holy Spirit and power. He went everywhere, doing good and healing all who were under the power of the Devil, for God was with him.

One day when Jesus was praying alone, the disciples came to him. "Who do the crowds say I am?" he asked them.

"What about you?" he asked them. "Who do you say I am?" Peter answered, "You are God's Messiah."

Jesus answered him, "Foxes have holes, and birds have nests, but the Son of Man has no place to lie down and rest."

I will prove to you, then, that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins." So he said to the paralyzed man, "Get up, pick up your bed, and go home!"

for the Son of Man is Lord of the Sabbath."

Anyone who says something against the Son of Man can be forgiven; but whoever says something against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven---now or ever.

In the same way that Jonah spent three days and nights in the big fish, so will the Son of Man spend three days and nights in the depths of the earth.

Jesus answered, "The man who sowed the good seed is the Son of Man;

the Son of Man will send out his angels to gather up out of his Kingdom all those who cause people to sin and all others who do evil things,

"When the Son of Man comes as King and all the angels with him, he will sit on his royal throne,

During this vision in the night, I saw what looked like a human being. He was approaching me, surrounded by clouds, and he went to the one who had been living forever and was presented to him.

If you are ashamed of me and of my teaching in this godless and wicked day, then the Son of Man will be ashamed of you when he comes in the glory of his Father with the holy angels."

For even the Son of Man did not come to be served; he came to serve and to give his life to redeem many people."

And he said to them, "I am telling you the truth: you will see heaven open and God's angels going up and coming down on the Son of Man."

As Moses lifted up the bronze snake on a pole in the desert, in the same way the Son of Man must be lifted up,

And he has given the Son the right to judge, because he is the Son of Man.

The crowd answered, "Our Law tells us that the Messiah will live forever. How, then, can you say that the Son of Man must be lifted up? Who is this Son of Man?"

"Look!" he said. "I see heaven opened and the Son of Man standing at the right side of God!"

Since the children, as he calls them, are people of flesh and blood, Jesus himself became like them and shared their human nature. He did this so that through his death he might destroy the Devil, who has the power over death,

For it is clear that it is not the angels that he helps. Instead, he helps the descendants of Abraham.

And now he can help those who are tempted, because he himself was tempted and suffered.
