Mark 2:13-15

Disciples’ Literal New Testament

Jesus Calls Levi The Tax Collector And Eats With His Friends: I Came For Sinners

¹³ And He went out again beside the sea. And all the multitude^[a] was coming to Him. And He was teaching them. ¹⁴ And while passing on He saw Levi, the son of Alphaeus, sitting at the tax-office^[b]. And He says to him “Be following Me!” And having stood-up, he followed Him. ¹⁵ And it comes about that He was reclining [to eat] in his^[c] house. And many tax-collectors and sinners were reclining-back-with Jesus and His disciples. For there were many, and they were following Him.
