Judea

유대

The region named in Matthew 2:1 and 2:22. Mark 1:5 has all the country of Judea go out to John and be baptized by him in the Jordan river, and 3:7–8 has a great multitude come to Jesus from Judea as well. Mark 10:1 says Jesus came into the borders of Judea and beyond the Jordan, and multitudes came together to him again. Mark 13:14 says that when they see the abomination of desolation standing where it ought not, those who are in Judea are to flee to the mountains. Luke 1:5 names the days of Herod, the king of Judea, as the time when Zacharias was a priest; at 1:39–40 Mary goes into the hill country, into a city of Judah (the Korean Revised Version says a town of Judea, 유대 한 동네), and enters into the house of Zacharias; at 1:65, after Zacharias’ mouth is opened, all these sayings are talked about throughout all the hill country of Judea; and at 2:4 Joseph goes up from Galilee into Judea, to David’s city, which is called Bethlehem. Luke 3:1 calls Pontius Pilate governor of Judea, and at 5:17 Pharisees and teachers of the law who have come out of every village of Galilee, Judea, and Jerusalem are sitting by as Jesus teaches. Luke 6:17 has a great number of the people come from all Judea and Jerusalem and the sea coast of Tyre and Sidon to hear Jesus and to be healed of their diseases, and 7:17 says that after the widow’s son was raised, the report concerning Jesus went out in the whole of Judea and in all the surrounding region. Luke 21:20–21 says that when Jerusalem is seen surrounded by armies, those who are in Judea are to flee to the mountains, and at 23:5 Jesus is accused of stirring up the people, teaching throughout all Judea, beginning from Galilee even to this place. John 3:22 says that after these things Jesus came with his disciples into the land of Judea, and stayed there with them and baptized. John 4:3 has Jesus leave Judea and depart into Galilee; at 4:47 a nobleman hears that Jesus has come out of Judea into Galilee, and 4:54 says, “This is again the second sign that Jesus did, having come out of Judea into Galilee.” John 7:1 says Jesus would not walk in Judea, because the Jews sought to kill him, and at 7:2–3, when the Feast of Booths is at hand, his brothers say to him, “Depart from here and go into Judea, that your disciples also may see your works which you do.” John 11:7–8 has Jesus say to the disciples, “Let’s go into Judea again,” and the disciples ask him, “Rabbi, the Jews were just trying to stone you. Are you going there again?” At Acts 1:6–8, when those who have come together ask Jesus, “Lord, are you now restoring the kingdom to Israel?”, he says to them, “It isn’t for you to know times or seasons which the Father has set within his own authority. But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you. You will be witnesses to me in Jerusalem, in all Judea and Samaria, and to the uttermost parts of the earth.” At 2:6–11, when the sound is heard, the multitude that comes together says, “Parthians, Medes, Elamites, and people from Mesopotamia, Judea, Cappadocia, Pontus, Asia, Phrygia, Pamphylia, Egypt, the parts of Libya around Cyrene, visitors from Rome, both Jews and proselytes, Cretans and Arabians—we hear them speaking in our languages the mighty works of God!” Acts 8:1 says that a great persecution arose against the assembly which was in Jerusalem, and they were all scattered abroad throughout the regions of Judea and Samaria, except for the apostles, and 9:31 says that the assemblies throughout all Judea, Galilee, and Samaria had peace and were built up. Acts 11:1 says that the apostles and the brothers who were in Judea heard that the Gentiles had also received the word of God; at 11:29 the disciples, as any of them had plenty, each determine to send relief to the brothers who live in Judea; and at 12:19 Herod goes down from Judea to Caesarea. Acts 15:1 says that some men came down from Judea and taught the brothers, “Unless you are circumcised after the custom of Moses, you can’t be saved.” Acts 21:10 says that a certain prophet named Agabus came down from Judea. At Acts 26:20 Paul tells King Agrippa that he “declared first to them of Damascus, at Jerusalem, and throughout all the country of Judea, and also to the Gentiles, that they should repent and turn to God”; at 28:21 the leaders of the Jews say to Paul, “We neither received letters from Judea concerning you, nor did any of the brothers come here and report or speak any evil of you.”

  • 1TH 2:13–16, engwebp

    13For this cause we also thank God without ceasing that when you received from us the word of the message of God, you accepted it not as the word of men, but as it is in truth, God’s word, which also works in you who believe.

    14For you, brothers, became imitators of the assemblies of God which are in Judea in Christ Jesus; for you also suffered the same things from your own countrymen, even as they did from the Jews

    15who killed both the Lord Jesus and their own prophets, and drove us out, and don’t please God, and are contrary to all men,

    16forbidding us to speak to the Gentiles that they may be saved, to fill up their sins always. But wrath has come on them to the uttermost.

  • 2CO 1:15–22, engwebp

    15In this confidence, I was determined to come first to you, that you might have a second benefit,

    16and by you to pass into Macedonia, and again from Macedonia to come to you, and to be sent forward by you on my journey to Judea.

    17When I therefore planned this, did I show fickleness? Or the things that I plan, do I plan according to the flesh, that with me there should be the “Yes, yes” and the “No, no?”

    18But as God is faithful, our word toward you was not “Yes and no.”

    19For the Son of God, Jesus Christ, who was preached among you by us—by me, Silvanus, and Timothy—was not “Yes and no,” but in him is “Yes.”

    20For however many are the promises of God, in him is the “Yes.” Therefore also through him is the “Amen”, to the glory of God through us.

    21Now he who establishes us with you in Christ and anointed us is God,

    22who also sealed us and gave us the down payment of the Spirit in our hearts.

  • ACT 1:4–11, engwebp

    4Being assembled together with them, he commanded them, “Don’t depart from Jerusalem, but wait for the promise of the Father, which you heard from me.

    5For John indeed baptized in water, but you will be baptized in the Holy Spirit not many days from now.”

    6Therefore, when they had come together, they asked him, “Lord, are you now restoring the kingdom to Israel?”

    7He said to them, “It isn’t for you to know times or seasons which the Father has set within his own authority.

    8But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you. You will be witnesses to me in Jerusalem, in all Judea and Samaria, and to the uttermost parts of the earth.”

    9When he had said these things, as they were looking, he was taken up, and a cloud received him out of their sight.

    10While they were looking steadfastly into the sky as he went, behold, two men stood by them in white clothing,

    11who also said, “You men of Galilee, why do you stand looking into the sky? This Jesus, who was received up from you into the sky, will come back in the same way as you saw him going into the sky.”

  • ACT 2:1–13, engwebp

    1Now when the day of Pentecost had come, they were all with one accord in one place.

    2Suddenly there came from the sky a sound like the rushing of a mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting.

    3Tongues like fire appeared and were distributed to them, and one sat on each of them.

    4They were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak with other languages, as the Spirit gave them the ability to speak.

    5Now there were dwelling in Jerusalem Jews, devout men, from every nation under the sky.

    6When this sound was heard, the multitude came together and were bewildered, because everyone heard them speaking in his own language.

    7They were all amazed and marveled, saying to one another, “Behold, aren’t all these who speak Galileans?

    8How do we hear, everyone in our own native language?

    9Parthians, Medes, Elamites, and people from Mesopotamia, Judea, Cappadocia, Pontus, Asia,

    10Phrygia, Pamphylia, Egypt, the parts of Libya around Cyrene, visitors from Rome, both Jews and proselytes,

    11Cretans and Arabians—we hear them speaking in our languages the mighty works of God!”

    12They were all amazed and were perplexed, saying to one another, “What does this mean?”

    13Others, mocking, said, “They are filled with new wine.”

  • ACT 8:1–3, engwebp

    1Saul was consenting to his death. A great persecution arose against the assembly which was in Jerusalem in that day. They were all scattered abroad throughout the regions of Judea and Samaria, except for the apostles.

    2Devout men buried Stephen and lamented greatly over him.

    3But Saul ravaged the assembly, entering into every house and dragged both men and women off to prison.

  • ACT 9:31, engwebp

    31So the assemblies throughout all Judea, Galilee, and Samaria had peace and were built up. They were multiplied, walking in the fear of the Lord and in the comfort of the Holy Spirit.

  • ACT 10:34–43, engwebp

    34Peter opened his mouth and said, “Truly I perceive that God doesn’t show favoritism;

    35but in every nation he who fears him and works righteousness is acceptable to him.

    36The word which he sent to the children of Israel, preaching good news of peace by Jesus Christ—he is Lord of all—

    37you yourselves know what happened, which was proclaimed throughout all Judea, beginning from Galilee, after the baptism which John preached;

    38how God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and with power, who went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil, for God was with him.

    39We are witnesses of everything he did both in the country of the Jews and in Jerusalem; whom they also killed, hanging him on a tree.

    40God raised him up the third day and gave him to be revealed,

    41not to all the people, but to witnesses who were chosen before by God, to us, who ate and drank with him after he rose from the dead.

    42He commanded us to preach to the people and to testify that this is he who is appointed by God as the Judge of the living and the dead.

    43All the prophets testify about him, that through his name everyone who believes in him will receive remission of sins.”

  • ACT 11:1–18, engwebp

    1Now the apostles and the brothers who were in Judea heard that the Gentiles had also received the word of God.

    2When Peter had come up to Jerusalem, those who were of the circumcision contended with him,

    3saying, “You went in to uncircumcised men and ate with them!”

    4But Peter began, and explained to them in order, saying,

    5“I was in the city of Joppa praying, and in a trance I saw a vision: a certain container descending, like it was a great sheet let down from heaven by four corners. It came as far as me.

    6When I had looked intently at it, I considered, and saw the four-footed animals of the earth, wild animals, creeping things, and birds of the sky.

    7I also heard a voice saying to me, ‘Rise, Peter, kill and eat!’

    8But I said, ‘Not so, Lord, for nothing unholy or unclean has ever entered into my mouth.’

    9But a voice answered me the second time out of heaven, ‘What God has cleansed, don’t you call unclean.’

    10This was done three times, and all were drawn up again into heaven.

    11Behold, immediately three men stood before the house where I was, having been sent from Caesarea to me.

    12The Spirit told me to go with them without discriminating. These six brothers also accompanied me, and we entered into the man’s house.

    13He told us how he had seen the angel standing in his house and saying to him, ‘Send to Joppa and get Simon, who is called Peter,

    14who will speak to you words by which you will be saved, you and all your house.’

    15As I began to speak, the Holy Spirit fell on them, even as on us at the beginning.

    16I remembered the word of the Lord, how he said, ‘John indeed baptized in water, but you will be baptized in the Holy Spirit.’

    17If then God gave to them the same gift as us when we believed in the Lord Jesus Christ, who was I, that I could withstand God?”

    18When they heard these things, they held their peace and glorified God, saying, “Then God has also granted to the Gentiles repentance to life!”

  • ACT 11:27–30, engwebp

    27Now in these days, prophets came down from Jerusalem to Antioch.

    28One of them named Agabus stood up and indicated by the Spirit that there should be a great famine all over the world, which also happened in the days of Claudius.

    29As any of the disciples had plenty, each determined to send relief to the brothers who lived in Judea;

    30which they also did, sending it to the elders by the hands of Barnabas and Saul.

  • ACT 12:18–23, engwebp

    18Now as soon as it was day, there was no small stir among the soldiers about what had become of Peter.

    19When Herod had sought for him and didn’t find him, he examined the guards, then commanded that they should be put to death. He went down from Judea to Caesarea, and stayed there.

    20Now Herod was very angry with the people of Tyre and Sidon. They came with one accord to him and, having made Blastus, the king’s personal aide, their friend, they asked for peace, because their country depended on the king’s country for food.

    21On an appointed day, Herod dressed himself in royal clothing, sat on the throne, and gave a speech to them.

    22The people shouted, “The voice of a god, and not of a man!”

    23Immediately an angel of the Lord struck him, because he didn’t give God the glory. Then he was eaten by worms and died.

  • ACT 15:1–5, engwebp

    1Some men came down from Judea and taught the brothers, “Unless you are circumcised after the custom of Moses, you can’t be saved.”

    2Therefore when Paul and Barnabas had no small discord and discussion with them, they appointed Paul, Barnabas, and some others of them to go up to Jerusalem to the apostles and elders about this question.

    3They, being sent on their way by the assembly, passed through both Phoenicia and Samaria, declaring the conversion of the Gentiles. They caused great joy to all the brothers.

    4When they had come to Jerusalem, they were received by the assembly and the apostles and the elders, and they reported everything that God had done with them.

    5But some of the sect of the Pharisees who believed rose up, saying, “It is necessary to circumcise them, and to command them to keep the law of Moses.”

  • ACT 21:8–16, engwebp

    8On the next day, we who were Paul’s companions departed and came to Caesarea. We entered into the house of Philip the evangelist, who was one of the seven, and stayed with him.

    9Now this man had four virgin daughters who prophesied.

    10As we stayed there some days, a certain prophet named Agabus came down from Judea.

    11Coming to us and taking Paul’s belt, he bound his own feet and hands, and said, “The Holy Spirit says: ‘So the Jews at Jerusalem will bind the man who owns this belt, and will deliver him into the hands of the Gentiles.’”

    12When we heard these things, both we and the people of that place begged him not to go up to Jerusalem.

    13Then Paul answered, “What are you doing, weeping and breaking my heart? For I am ready not only to be bound, but also to die at Jerusalem for the name of the Lord Jesus.”

    14When he would not be persuaded, we ceased, saying, “The Lord’s will be done.”

    15After these days we took up our baggage and went up to Jerusalem.

    16Some of the disciples from Caesarea also went with us, bringing one Mnason of Cyprus, an early disciple, with whom we would stay.

  • ACT 26:1–8, engwebp

    1Agrippa said to Paul, “You may speak for yourself.” Then Paul stretched out his hand, and made his defense.

    2“I think myself happy, King Agrippa, that I am to make my defense before you today concerning all the things the Jews accuse me of,

    3especially because you are expert in all customs and questions which are among the Jews. Therefore I beg you to hear me patiently.

    4“Indeed, all the Jews know my way of life from my youth up, which was from the beginning among my own nation and at Jerusalem;

    5having known me from the first, if they are willing to testify, that after the strictest sect of our religion I lived a Pharisee.

    6Now I stand here to be judged for the hope of the promise made by God to our fathers,

    7which our twelve tribes, earnestly serving night and day, hope to attain. Concerning this hope I am accused by the Jews, King Agrippa!

    8Why is it judged incredible with you if God does raise the dead?

  • ACT 26:9–23, engwebp

    9“I myself most certainly thought that I ought to do many things contrary to the name of Jesus of Nazareth.

    10I also did this in Jerusalem. I both shut up many of the saints in prisons, having received authority from the chief priests; and when they were put to death I gave my vote against them.

    11Punishing them often in all the synagogues, I tried to make them blaspheme. Being exceedingly enraged against them, I persecuted them even to foreign cities.

    12“Whereupon as I traveled to Damascus with the authority and commission from the chief priests,

    13at noon, O king, I saw on the way a light from the sky, brighter than the sun, shining around me and those who traveled with me.

    14When we had all fallen to the earth, I heard a voice saying to me in the Hebrew language, ‘Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting me? It is hard for you to kick against the goads.’

    15“I said, ‘Who are you, Lord?’ “He said, ‘I am Jesus, whom you are persecuting.

    16But arise, and stand on your feet, for I have appeared to you for this purpose: to appoint you a servant and a witness both of the things which you have seen and of the things which I will reveal to you;

    17delivering you from the people and from the Gentiles, to whom I send you,

    18to open their eyes, that they may turn from darkness to light and from the power of Satan to God, that they may receive remission of sins and an inheritance among those who are sanctified by faith in me.’

    19“Therefore, King Agrippa, I was not disobedient to the heavenly vision,

    20but declared first to them of Damascus, at Jerusalem, and throughout all the country of Judea, and also to the Gentiles, that they should repent and turn to God, doing works worthy of repentance.

    21For this reason the Jews seized me in the temple and tried to kill me.

    22Having therefore obtained the help that is from God, I stand to this day testifying both to small and great, saying nothing but what the prophets and Moses said would happen,

    23how the Christ must suffer, and how, by the resurrection of the dead, he would be first to proclaim light both to these people and to the Gentiles.”

  • ACT 28:17–22, engwebp

    17After three days Paul called together those who were the leaders of the Jews. When they had come together, he said to them, “I, brothers, though I had done nothing against the people or the customs of our fathers, still was delivered prisoner from Jerusalem into the hands of the Romans,

    18who, when they had examined me, desired to set me free, because there was no cause of death in me.

    19But when the Jews spoke against it, I was constrained to appeal to Caesar, not that I had anything about which to accuse my nation.

    20For this cause therefore I asked to see you and to speak with you. For because of the hope of Israel I am bound with this chain.”

    21They said to him, “We neither received letters from Judea concerning you, nor did any of the brothers come here and report or speak any evil of you.

    22But we desire to hear from you what you think. For, as concerning this sect, it is known to us that everywhere it is spoken against.”

  • GAL 1:18–24, engwebp

    18Then after three years I went up to Jerusalem to visit Peter, and stayed with him fifteen days.

    19But of the other apostles I saw no one except James, the Lord’s brother.

    20Now about the things which I write to you, behold, before God, I’m not lying.

    21Then I came to the regions of Syria and Cilicia.

    22I was still unknown by face to the assemblies of Judea which were in Christ,

    23but they only heard, “He who once persecuted us now preaches the faith that he once tried to destroy.”

    24So they glorified God in me.

  • JHN 3:22–24, engwebp

    22After these things, Jesus came with his disciples into the land of Judea. He stayed there with them and baptized.

    23John also was baptizing in Enon near Salim, because there was much water there. They came and were baptized;

    24for John was not yet thrown into prison.

  • JHN 4:1–26, engwebp

    1Therefore when the Lord knew that the Pharisees had heard that Jesus was making and baptizing more disciples than John

    2(although Jesus himself didn’t baptize, but his disciples),

    3he left Judea and departed into Galilee.

    4He needed to pass through Samaria.

    5So he came to a city of Samaria called Sychar, near the parcel of ground that Jacob gave to his son Joseph.

    6Jacob’s well was there. Jesus therefore, being tired from his journey, sat down by the well. It was about the sixth hour.

    7A woman of Samaria came to draw water. Jesus said to her, “Give me a drink.”

    8For his disciples had gone away into the city to buy food.

    9The Samaritan woman therefore said to him, “How is it that you, being a Jew, ask for a drink from me, a Samaritan woman?” (For Jews have no dealings with Samaritans.)

    10Jesus answered her, “If you knew the gift of God, and who it is who says to you, ‘Give me a drink,’ you would have asked him, and he would have given you living water.”

    11The woman said to him, “Sir, you have nothing to draw with, and the well is deep. So where do you get that living water?

    12Are you greater than our father Jacob, who gave us the well and drank from it himself, as did his children and his livestock?”

    13Jesus answered her, “Everyone who drinks of this water will thirst again,

    14but whoever drinks of the water that I will give him will never thirst again; but the water that I will give him will become in him a well of water springing up to eternal life.”

    15The woman said to him, “Sir, give me this water, so that I don’t get thirsty, neither come all the way here to draw.”

    16Jesus said to her, “Go, call your husband, and come here.”

    17The woman answered, “I have no husband.” Jesus said to her, “You said well, ‘I have no husband,’

    18for you have had five husbands; and he whom you now have is not your husband. This you have said truly.”

    19The woman said to him, “Sir, I perceive that you are a prophet.

    20Our fathers worshiped in this mountain, and you Jews say that in Jerusalem is the place where people ought to worship.”

    21Jesus said to her, “Woman, believe me, the hour is coming when neither in this mountain nor in Jerusalem will you worship the Father.

    22You worship that which you don’t know. We worship that which we know; for salvation is from the Jews.

    23But the hour comes, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for the Father seeks such to be his worshipers.

    24God is spirit, and those who worship him must worship in spirit and truth.”

    25The woman said to him, “I know that Messiah is coming, he who is called Christ. When he has come, he will declare to us all things.”

    26Jesus said to her, “I am he, the one who speaks to you.”

  • JHN 4:43–54, engwebp

    43After the two days he went out from there and went into Galilee.

    44For Jesus himself testified that a prophet has no honor in his own country.

    45So when he came into Galilee, the Galileans received him, having seen all the things that he did in Jerusalem at the feast, for they also went to the feast.

    46Jesus came therefore again to Cana of Galilee, where he made the water into wine. There was a certain nobleman whose son was sick at Capernaum.

    47When he heard that Jesus had come out of Judea into Galilee, he went to him and begged him that he would come down and heal his son, for he was at the point of death.

    48Jesus therefore said to him, “Unless you people see signs and wonders, you will in no way believe.”

    49The nobleman said to him, “Sir, come down before my child dies.”

    50Jesus said to him, “Go your way. Your son lives.” The man believed the word that Jesus spoke to him, and he went his way.

    51As he was going down, his servants met him and reported, saying “Your child lives!”

    52So he inquired of them the hour when he began to get better. They said therefore to him, “Yesterday at the seventh hour, the fever left him.”

    53So the father knew that it was at that hour in which Jesus said to him, “Your son lives.” He believed, as did his whole house.

    54This is again the second sign that Jesus did, having come out of Judea into Galilee.

  • JHN 7:1–9, engwebp

    1After these things, Jesus was walking in Galilee, for he wouldn’t walk in Judea, because the Jews sought to kill him.

    2Now the feast of the Jews, the Feast of Booths, was at hand.

    3His brothers therefore said to him, “Depart from here and go into Judea, that your disciples also may see your works which you do.

    4For no one does anything in secret while he seeks to be known openly. If you do these things, reveal yourself to the world.”

    5For even his brothers didn’t believe in him.

    6Jesus therefore said to them, “My time has not yet come, but your time is always ready.

    7The world can’t hate you, but it hates me, because I testify about it, that its works are evil.

    8You go up to the feast. I am not yet going up to this feast, because my time is not yet fulfilled.”

    9Having said these things to them, he stayed in Galilee.

  • JHN 11:1–16, engwebp

    1Now a certain man was sick, Lazarus from Bethany, of the village of Mary and her sister, Martha.

    2It was that Mary who had anointed the Lord with ointment and wiped his feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was sick.

    3The sisters therefore sent to him, saying, “Lord, behold, he for whom you have great affection is sick.”

    4But when Jesus heard it, he said, “This sickness is not to death, but for the glory of God, that God’s Son may be glorified by it.”

    5Now Jesus loved Martha, and her sister, and Lazarus.

    6When therefore he heard that he was sick, he stayed two days in the place where he was.

    7Then after this he said to the disciples, “Let’s go into Judea again.”

    8The disciples asked him, “Rabbi, the Jews were just trying to stone you. Are you going there again?”

    9Jesus answered, “Aren’t there twelve hours of daylight? If a man walks in the day, he doesn’t stumble, because he sees the light of this world.

    10But if a man walks in the night, he stumbles, because the light isn’t in him.”

    11He said these things, and after that, he said to them, “Our friend Lazarus has fallen asleep, but I am going so that I may awake him out of sleep.”

    12The disciples therefore said, “Lord, if he has fallen asleep, he will recover.”

    13Now Jesus had spoken of his death, but they thought that he spoke of taking rest in sleep.

    14So Jesus said to them plainly then, “Lazarus is dead.

    15I am glad for your sakes that I was not there, so that you may believe. Nevertheless, let’s go to him.”

    16Thomas therefore, who is called Didymus, said to his fellow disciples, “Let’s also go, that we may die with him.”

  • LUK 1:5–25, engwebp

    5There was in the days of Herod, the king of Judea, a certain priest named Zacharias, of the priestly division of Abijah. He had a wife of the daughters of Aaron, and her name was Elizabeth.

    6They were both righteous before God, walking blamelessly in all the commandments and ordinances of the Lord.

    7But they had no child, because Elizabeth was barren, and they both were well advanced in years.

    8Now while he executed the priest’s office before God in the order of his division

    9according to the custom of the priest’s office, his lot was to enter into the temple of the Lord and burn incense.

    10The whole multitude of the people were praying outside at the hour of incense.

    11An angel of the Lord appeared to him, standing on the right side of the altar of incense.

    12Zacharias was troubled when he saw him, and fear fell upon him.

    13But the angel said to him, “Don’t be afraid, Zacharias, because your request has been heard. Your wife, Elizabeth, will bear you a son, and you shall call his name John.

    14You will have joy and gladness, and many will rejoice at his birth.

    15For he will be great in the sight of the Lord, and he will drink no wine nor strong drink. He will be filled with the Holy Spirit, even from his mother’s womb.

    16He will turn many of the children of Israel to the Lord their God.

    17He will go before him in the spirit and power of Elijah, ‘to turn the hearts of the fathers to the children,’ and the disobedient to the wisdom of the just; to prepare a people prepared for the Lord.”

    18Zacharias said to the angel, “How can I be sure of this? For I am an old man, and my wife is well advanced in years.”

    19The angel answered him, “I am Gabriel, who stands in the presence of God. I was sent to speak to you and to bring you this good news.

    20Behold, you will be silent and not able to speak until the day that these things will happen, because you didn’t believe my words, which will be fulfilled in their proper time.”

    21The people were waiting for Zacharias, and they marveled that he delayed in the temple.

    22When he came out, he could not speak to them. They perceived that he had seen a vision in the temple. He continued making signs to them, and remained mute.

    23When the days of his service were fulfilled, he departed to his house.

    24After these days Elizabeth his wife conceived, and she hid herself five months, saying,

    25“Thus has the Lord done to me in the days in which he looked at me, to take away my reproach among men.”

  • LUK 1:39–56, engwebp

    39Mary arose in those days and went into the hill country with haste, into a city of Judah,

    40and entered into the house of Zacharias and greeted Elizabeth.

    41When Elizabeth heard Mary’s greeting, the baby leaped in her womb; and Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit.

    42She called out with a loud voice and said, “Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb!

    43Why am I so favored, that the mother of my Lord should come to me?

    44For behold, when the voice of your greeting came into my ears, the baby leaped in my womb for joy!

    45Blessed is she who believed, for there will be a fulfillment of the things which have been spoken to her from the Lord!”

    46Mary said, “My soul magnifies the Lord.

    47My spirit has rejoiced in God my Savior,

    48for he has looked at the humble state of his servant. For behold, from now on, all generations will call me blessed.

    49For he who is mighty has done great things for me. Holy is his name.

    50His mercy is for generations and generations on those who fear him.

    51He has shown strength with his arm. He has scattered the proud in the imagination of their hearts.

    52He has put down princes from their thrones, and has exalted the lowly.

    53He has filled the hungry with good things. He has sent the rich away empty.

    54He has given help to Israel, his servant, that he might remember mercy,

    55as he spoke to our fathers, to Abraham and his offspring forever.”

    56Mary stayed with her about three months, and then returned to her house.

  • LUK 1:57–80, engwebp

    57Now the time that Elizabeth should give birth was fulfilled, and she gave birth to a son.

    58Her neighbors and her relatives heard that the Lord had magnified his mercy toward her, and they rejoiced with her.

    59On the eighth day, they came to circumcise the child; and they would have called him Zacharias, after the name of his father.

    60His mother answered, “Not so; but he will be called John.”

    61They said to her, “There is no one among your relatives who is called by this name.”

    62They made signs to his father, what he would have him called.

    63He asked for a writing tablet, and wrote, “His name is John.” They all marveled.

    64His mouth was opened immediately and his tongue freed, and he spoke, blessing God.

    65Fear came on all who lived around them, and all these sayings were talked about throughout all the hill country of Judea.

    66All who heard them laid them up in their heart, saying, “What then will this child be?” The hand of the Lord was with him.

    67His father Zacharias was filled with the Holy Spirit, and prophesied, saying,

    68“Blessed be the Lord, the God of Israel, for he has visited and redeemed his people;

    69and has raised up a horn of salvation for us in the house of his servant David

    70(as he spoke by the mouth of his holy prophets who have been from of old),

    71salvation from our enemies and from the hand of all who hate us;

    72to show mercy toward our fathers, to remember his holy covenant,

    73the oath which he swore to Abraham our father,

    74to grant to us that we, being delivered out of the hand of our enemies, should serve him without fear,

    75in holiness and righteousness before him all the days of our life.

    76And you, child, will be called a prophet of the Most High; for you will go before the face of the Lord to prepare his ways,

    77to give knowledge of salvation to his people by the remission of their sins,

    78because of the tender mercy of our God, by which the dawn from on high will visit us,

    79to shine on those who sit in darkness and the shadow of death; to guide our feet into the way of peace.”

    80The child was growing and becoming strong in spirit, and was in the desert until the day of his public appearance to Israel.

    1Now in those days, a decree went out from Caesar Augustus that all the world should be enrolled.

    2This was the first enrollment made when Quirinius was governor of Syria.

    3All went to enroll themselves, everyone to his own city.

    4Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judea, to David’s city, which is called Bethlehem, because he was of the house and family of David,

    5to enroll himself with Mary, who was pledged to be married to him as wife, being pregnant.

    6While they were there, the day had come for her to give birth.

    7She gave birth to her firstborn son. She wrapped him in bands of cloth and laid him in a feeding trough, because there was no room for them in the inn.

    1Now in the fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius Caesar, Pontius Pilate being governor of Judea, and Herod being tetrarch of Galilee, and his brother Philip tetrarch of the region of Ituraea and Trachonitis, and Lysanias tetrarch of Abilene,

    2during the high priesthood of Annas and Caiaphas, the word of God came to John, the son of Zacharias, in the wilderness.

    3He came into all the region around the Jordan, preaching the baptism of repentance for remission of sins.

    4As it is written in the book of the words of Isaiah the prophet, “The voice of one crying in the wilderness, ‘Make ready the way of the Lord. Make his paths straight.

    17On one of those days, he was teaching; and there were Pharisees and teachers of the law sitting by who had come out of every village of Galilee, Judea, and Jerusalem. The power of the Lord was with him to heal them.

    18Behold, men brought a paralyzed man on a cot, and they sought to bring him in to lay before Jesus.

    19Not finding a way to bring him in because of the multitude, they went up to the housetop and let him down through the tiles with his cot into the middle before Jesus.

    20Seeing their faith, he said to him, “Man, your sins are forgiven you.”

    21The scribes and the Pharisees began to reason, saying, “Who is this who speaks blasphemies? Who can forgive sins, but God alone?”

    22But Jesus, perceiving their thoughts, answered them, “Why are you reasoning so in your hearts?

    23Which is easier to say, ‘Your sins are forgiven you,’ or to say, ‘Arise and walk’?

    24But that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins,” he said to the paralyzed man, “I tell you, arise, take up your cot, and go to your house.”

    25Immediately he rose up before them, and took up that which he was laying on, and departed to his house, glorifying God.

    26Amazement took hold on all, and they glorified God. They were filled with fear, saying, “We have seen strange things today.”

    11Soon afterwards, he went to a city called Nain. Many of his disciples, along with a great multitude, went with him.

    12Now when he came near to the gate of the city, behold, one who was dead was carried out, the only born son of his mother, and she was a widow. Many people of the city were with her.

    13When the Lord saw her, he had compassion on her and said to her, “Don’t cry.”

    14He came near and touched the coffin, and the bearers stood still. He said, “Young man, I tell you, arise!”

    15He who was dead sat up and began to speak. Then he gave him to his mother.

    16Fear took hold of all, and they glorified God, saying, “A great prophet has arisen among us!” and, “God has visited his people!”

    3Pilate asked him, “Are you the King of the Jews?” He answered him, “So you say.”

    4Pilate said to the chief priests and the multitudes, “I find no basis for a charge against this man.”

    1Now when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea in the days of King Herod, behold, wise men from the east came to Jerusalem, saying,

    2“Where is he who is born King of the Jews? For we saw his star in the east, and have come to worship him.”

    3When King Herod heard it, he was troubled, and all Jerusalem with him.

    4Gathering together all the chief priests and scribes of the people, he asked them where the Christ would be born.

    5They said to him, “In Bethlehem of Judea, for this is written through the prophet,

    6‘You Bethlehem, land of Judah, are in no way least among the princes of Judah; for out of you shall come a governor who shall shepherd my people, Israel.’”

    7Then Herod secretly called the wise men, and learned from them exactly what time the star appeared.

    8He sent them to Bethlehem, and said, “Go and search diligently for the young child. When you have found him, bring me word, so that I also may come and worship him.”

    9They, having heard the king, went their way; and behold, the star, which they saw in the east, went before them until it came and stood over where the young child was.

    10When they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceedingly great joy.

    11They came into the house and saw the young child with Mary, his mother, and they fell down and worshiped him. Opening their treasures, they offered to him gifts: gold, frankincense, and myrrh.

    12Being warned in a dream not to return to Herod, they went back to their own country another way.

    21He arose and took the young child and his mother, and came into the land of Israel.

    22But when he heard that Archelaus was reigning over Judea in the place of his father, Herod, he was afraid to go there. Being warned in a dream, he withdrew into the region of Galilee,

    23and came and lived in a city called Nazareth; that it might be fulfilled which was spoken through the prophets that he will be called a Nazarene.

    4Now John himself wore clothing made of camel’s hair with a leather belt around his waist. His food was locusts and wild honey.

    5Then people from Jerusalem, all of Judea, and all the region around the Jordan went out to him.

    6They were baptized by him in the Jordan, confessing their sins.

    7But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees coming for his baptism, he said to them, “You offspring of vipers, who warned you to flee from the wrath to come?

    8Therefore produce fruit worthy of repentance!

    9Don’t think to yourselves, ‘We have Abraham for our father,’ for I tell you that God is able to raise up children to Abraham from these stones.

    5and said, ‘For this cause a man shall leave his father and mother, and shall be joined to his wife; and the two shall become one flesh’?

    6So that they are no more two, but one flesh. What therefore God has joined together, don’t let man tear apart.”

    7They asked him, “Why then did Moses command us to give her a certificate of divorce and divorce her?”

    8He said to them, “Moses, because of the hardness of your hearts, allowed you to divorce your wives, but from the beginning it has not been so.

    9I tell you that whoever divorces his wife, except for sexual immorality, and marries another, commits adultery; and he who marries her when she is divorced commits adultery.”

    10His disciples said to him, “If this is the case of the man with his wife, it is not expedient to marry.”

    11But he said to them, “Not all men can receive this saying, but those to whom it is given.

    12For there are eunuchs who were born that way from their mother’s womb, and there are eunuchs who were made eunuchs by men; and there are eunuchs who made themselves eunuchs for the Kingdom of Heaven’s sake. He who is able to receive it, let him receive it.”

    9He spoke to his disciples that a little boat should stay near him because of the crowd, so that they wouldn’t press on him.

    26For it has been the good pleasure of Macedonia and Achaia to make a certain contribution for the poor among the saints who are at Jerusalem.

    27Yes, it has been their good pleasure, and they are their debtors. For if the Gentiles have been made partakers of their spiritual things, they owe it to them also to serve them in material things.

Luke 1:5 names the days of Herod, the king of Judea, as the time when Zacharias was a priest; at 1:39–40 Mary goes into the hill country, into a city of Judah (the Korean Revised Version says a town of Judea, 유대 한 동네), and enters into the house of Zacharias; at 1:65, after Zacharias’ mouth is opened, all these sayings are talked about throughout all the hill country of Judea; and at 2:4 Joseph goes up from Galilee into Judea, to David’s city, which is called Bethlehem. Luke 3:1 calls Pontius Pilate governor of Judea, and at 5:17 Pharisees and teachers of the law who have come out of every village of Galilee, Judea, and Jerusalem are sitting by as Jesus teaches. Luke 6:17 has a great number of the people come from all Judea and Jerusalem and the sea coast of Tyre and Sidon to hear Jesus and to be healed of their diseases, and 7:17 says that after the widow’s son was raised, the report concerning Jesus went out in the whole of Judea and in all the surrounding region. Luke 21:20–21 says that when Jerusalem is seen surrounded by armies, those who are in Judea are to flee to the mountains, and at 23:5 Jesus is accused of stirring up the people, teaching throughout all Judea, beginning from Galilee even to this place.

John 4:3 has Jesus leave Judea and depart into Galilee; at 4:47 a nobleman hears that Jesus has come out of Judea into Galilee, and 4:54 says, “This is again the second sign that Jesus did, having come out of Judea into Galilee.” John 7:1 says Jesus would not walk in Judea, because the Jews sought to kill him, and at 7:2–3, when the Feast of Booths is at hand, his brothers say to him, “Depart from here and go into Judea, that your disciples also may see your works which you do.” John 11:7–8 has Jesus say to the disciples, “Let’s go into Judea again,” and the disciples ask him, “Rabbi, the Jews were just trying to stone you. Are you going there again?” At Acts 1:6–8, when those who have come together ask Jesus, “Lord, are you now restoring the kingdom to Israel?”, he says to them, “It isn’t for you to know times or seasons which the Father has set within his own authority. But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you. You will be witnesses to me in Jerusalem, in all Judea and Samaria, and to the uttermost parts of the earth.” At 2:6–11, when the sound is heard, the multitude that comes together says, “Parthians, Medes, Elamites, and people from Mesopotamia, Judea, Cappadocia, Pontus, Asia, Phrygia, Pamphylia, Egypt, the parts of Libya around Cyrene, visitors from Rome, both Jews and proselytes, Cretans and Arabians—we hear them speaking in our languages the mighty works of God!” Acts 8:1 says that a great persecution arose against the assembly which was in Jerusalem, and they were all scattered abroad throughout the regions of Judea and Samaria, except for the apostles, and 9:31 says that the assemblies throughout all Judea, Galilee, and Samaria had peace and were built up.
