MATTHEW 11 1-10

  🍃🕊️02/02 - GospeL Verses 🍃🕊️

1 - When Jesus had instructed his twelve disciples (and sent them out) he went on from there to teach and preach in the cities.

     2 Now when John (the Baptist) heard in prison about the deeds of the Christ, he sent word by his disciples 3 to ask him, “Are you the one who is to come? Or shall we look for another?” 4 And Jesus answered, “Go and tell John what you hear and see, 5 the blind receive their sight, the lame walk, lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, and the poor have the good news preached to them. 6 And blessed is the one who does not fall away from me.”

     7 And as they were going away, Jesus began to speak to the crowds about John, “What did you go out into the wilderness to see? A reed shaken by the wind? 8 No? What then did you go out to see? A man dressed in soft clothing? You can find those who wear soft clothing in kings' houses. 9 What then did you go out to see? A prophet? Yes, I tell you, and more than a prophet. 10 This is he of which it is written (said by Father to Son) ‘Behold, I send my messenger before your face, who will prepare your way before you.’”
