²⁹ But Abraham said, ‘They have ^(A)Moses and the Prophets; ^(B)let them hear them.’

²¹ For from ancient generations Moses has had in every city those who proclaim him, ^(A)for he is read every Sabbath in the synagogues.”

²⁷ And ^(A)beginning with ^(B)Moses and ^(C)all the Prophets, he interpreted to them in all the Scriptures the things concerning himself.

¹⁹ And ^(A)we have the prophetic word more fully confirmed, to which you will do well to pay attention ^(B)as to a lamp shining in a dark place, until ^(C)the day ^(D)dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts, ²⁰ knowing this first of all, that no prophecy of Scripture comes from someone's own interpretation. ²¹ For ^(E)no prophecy was ever produced by the will of man, but men spoke from God ^(F)as they were carried along by the Holy Spirit.

¹⁵ and how ^(A)from childhood you have been acquainted with ^(B)the sacred writings, ^(C)which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus. ^16 (D)All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, ¹⁷ that ^(E)the man of God^[a] may be complete, ^(F)equipped ^(G)for every good work.

¹¹ Now these Jews were more noble than those in Thessalonica; they received the word with all eagerness, ^(A)examining the Scriptures daily to see if these things were so. ^12 (B)Many of them therefore believed, with not a few Greek ^(C)women of high standing as well as men.

^39 (A)You search the Scriptures because you think that in them you have eternal life; and ^(B)it is they that bear witness about me, ⁴⁰ yet ^(C)you refuse to come to me that you may have life. ^41 (D)I do not receive glory from people. ⁴² But ^(E)I know that you do not have ^(F)the love of God within you. ⁴³ I have come ^(G)in my Father's name, and ^(H)you do not receive me. ^(I)If another comes in his own name, you will receive him. ⁴⁴ How can you believe, when you receive glory from one another and ^(J)do not seek the glory that comes from ^(K)the only God? ⁴⁵ Do not think that I will accuse you to the Father. There is one who accuses you: Moses, ^(L)on whom you have set your hope. ⁴⁶ For if you believed Moses, you would believe me; for ^(M)he wrote of me. ⁴⁷ But ^(N)if you do not believe his writings, how will you believe my words?”

^16 (A)“The Law and the Prophets were until John; since then ^(B)the good news of the kingdom of God is preached, and ^(C)everyone forces his way into it.^[a]

² But for you ^(A)who fear my name, ^(B)the sun ^(C)of righteousness shall rise ^(D)with healing in its wings. You shall go out ^(E)leaping like calves from the stall. ³ And you shall tread down the wicked, for they will be ashes under the soles of your feet, ^(F)on the day when I act, says the Lord of hosts.

^4 (G)“Remember ^(H)the law of my servant Moses, the statutes and rules^[a] that I commanded him at Horeb for all Israel.
