\v 5 Then the devil was leading Jesus up to a high place and he showed him all the kingdoms of the world in an instant of time.
\v 6 The devil said to him, "I will give to you all this authority and all their splendor, for they have been given to me, and I can give it to anyone I want.
\v 9 Then the devil led Jesus to Jerusalem and put him on the very highest point of the temple building, and said to him, "If you are the Son of God, throw yourself down from here.
\v 10 For it is written,
\q1 'He will give orders to his angels regarding you, to protect you,'
\v 16 He came into Nazareth, the town where he had been raised, and as was his custom, he entered the synagogue on the Sabbath day, as was the custom, and he stood up to read aloud.
\v 22 Everyone there witnessed what he said and all of them were amazed at the gracious words which were coming out of his mouth. They were saying, "This is Joseph's son, is it not?"
\v 23 He said to them, "Surely you will say this proverb to me, 'Doctor, heal yourself. Whatever we heard that you did in Capernaum, do the same in your hometown.'"
\v 24 But he said, "Truly I say to you, no prophet is welcomed in his own hometown.
\v 25 But in truth I tell you that there were many widows in Israel during the time of Elijah, when the sky was shut up for three years and six months, and a great famine came upon all the land.
\v 26 But Elijah was sent to none of them, but only to Zarephath in Sidon, to a widow living there.
\v 27 And there were many lepers in Israel during the time of Elisha the prophet, but none of them were healed except Naaman the Syrian."
\v 29 They got up, forced him out of the town, and led him to the cliff of the hill on which their town was built, so they might throw him off the cliff.
\v 35 Jesus rebuked the demon, saying, "Do not speak and come out of him!" When the demon had thrown the man down in the middle of them, he came out of him, and did not harm him in any way.
\v 36 All the people were very amazed, and they kept talking about it with one another. They said, "What kind of words are these? He commands the unclean spirits with authority and power and they come out."
\v 38 Then Jesus left the synagogue and entered into the house of Simon. Now Simon's mother-in-law was suffering with a high fever, and they pleaded with him on her behalf.
\v 40 When the sun was setting, people brought to Jesus everyone who was sick with various kinds of diseases. He laid his hands on every one of them and healed them.
\v 41 Demons also came out from many of them, crying out and saying, "You are the Son of God!" Jesus rebuked the demons and would not let them speak, because they knew that he was the Christ.
\v 42 When daybreak came, he went out into a solitary place. Crowds of people were looking for him and came to the place where he was. They tried to keep him from going away from them.
\v 43 But he said to them, "I must also preach the good news about the kingdom of God to many other cities, because this is the reason I was sent here."
