Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 20:1 - And it came to pass, on one of those days, as he is teaching the people in the temple, and proclaiming good news, the chief priests and the scribes, with the elders, came upon him,
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 20:2 - and spake unto him, saying, 'Tell us by what authority thou dost these things? or who is he that gave to thee this authority?'
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 20:3 - And he answering said unto them, 'I will question you -- I also -- one thing, and tell me:
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 20:4 - the baptism of John, from heaven was it, or from men?'
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 20:5 - And they reasoned with themselves, saying -- 'If we may say, From heaven, he will say, Wherefore, then, did ye not believe him?
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 20:6 - and if we may say, From men, all the people will stone us, for they are having been persuaded John to be a prophet.'
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 20:7 - And they answered, that they knew not whence it was,
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 20:8 - and Jesus said to them, 'Neither do I say to you by what authority I do these things.'

Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 20:14 - and having seen him, the husbandmen reasoned among themselves, saying, This is the heir; come, we may kill him, that the inheritance may become ours;
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 20:15 - and having cast him outside of the vineyard, they killed him; what, then, shall the owner of the vineyard do to them?
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 20:16 - He will come, and destroy these husbandmen, and will give the vineyard to others.' And having heard, they said, 'Let it not be!'
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 20:17 - and he, having looked upon them, said, 'What, then, is this that hath been written: A stone that the builders rejected -- this became head of a corner?

Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 20:23 - And he, having perceived their craftiness, said unto them, 'Why me do ye tempt?

Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 20:30 - and the second took the wife, and he died childless,

Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 20:32 - and last of all died also the woman:

Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 20:35 - but those accounted worthy to obtain that age, and the rising again that is out of the dead, neither marry, nor are they given in marriage;
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 20:36 - for neither are they able to die any more -- for they are like messengers -- and they are sons of God, being sons of the rising again.

Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 20:44 - David, then, doth call him lord, and how is he his son?'

Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 20:46 - 'Take heed of the scribes, who are wishing to walk in long robes, and are loving salutations in the markets, and first seats in the synagogues, and first couches in the suppers,
Unchecked Copy BoxLuk 20:47 - who devour the houses of the widows, and for a pretence make long prayers, these shall receive more abundant judgment.'
