Jesus heilt am Sabbat

Als Jesus ein anderes Mal in die Synagoge ging, war dort ein Mann mit einer verkrüppelten Hand. Die, die einen Vorwand suchten, um Jesus anklagen zu können, beobachteten aufmerksam, ob er ihn am Sabbat heilen würde. »Steh auf und komm nach vorn[a]!«, sagte Jesus zu dem Mann mit der verkrüppelten Hand. Und den anderen stellte er die Frage: »Was ist richtig[b] – am Sabbat Gutes zu tun oder Böses? Einem Menschen das Leben zu retten oder ihn zu töten[c]?« Sie schwiegen. Er sah sie der Reihe nach an, voll Zorn und zugleich tief betrübt über ihr verstocktes Herz. Dann befahl er dem Mann: »Streck die Hand aus!« Der Mann streckte die Hand aus, und sie war geheilt.

Die Pharisäer jedoch fassten, sobald sie die Synagoge verlassen hatten,[d] zusammen mit den Anhängern des Herodes den Plan, Jesus zu beseitigen.

Jesus heilt viele Menschen

Jesus zog sich mit seinen Jüngern an den See zurück. Eine große Zahl von Menschen aus Galiläa folgte ihm. Auch aus Judäa, Jerusalem und Idumäa, aus dem Gebiet jenseits des Jordans und aus der Gegend von Tyrus und Sidon kamen sie in Scharen zu ihm, weil sie von all dem gehört hatten, was er tat. Die Menge war so groß, dass sie ihn fast erdrückte. Deshalb befahl er seinen Jüngern, ihm ein Boot bereitzuhalten. 10 Weil er nämlich so viele heilte, drängten sich alle, die ein Leiden hatten, an ihn heran, um ihn zu berühren. 11 Und wenn die von bösen Geistern Besessenen[e] ihn sahen, fielen sie vor ihm nieder und riefen: »Du bist der Sohn Gottes!« 12 Doch mit aller Entschiedenheit verbot ihnen Jesus, bekannt zu machen, wer er war.

Die zwölf Apostel

13 Jesus stieg auf einen Berg[f] und rief die zu sich, die er bei sich haben wollte. Sie traten zu ihm, 14 und er bestimmte zwölf, die er Apostel nannte[g]. Sie sollten ständig bei ihm sein, und er wollte sie aussenden, damit sie seine Botschaft verkündeten 15 und in seiner Vollmacht die Dämonen austrieben[h].

16 Die Zwölf, die er bestimmte, waren[i]:

Simon, dem er den Namen Petrus gab,
17 Jakobus, der Sohn des Zebedäus,
Johannes, der Bruder des Jakobus – diese beiden nannte er Boanerges (das bedeutet »Donnersöhne«) –,
18 Andreas,
Philippus,
Bartholomäus,
Matthäus,
Thomas,
Jakobus, der Sohn des Alphäus,
Thaddäus,
Simon, der Zelot[j],
19 und Judas Iskariot, der Jesus verriet.

Jesus und seine Angehörigen

20 Jesus ging nach Hause, und wieder versammelte sich eine Menschenmenge bei ihm, sodass er und seine Jünger nicht einmal Zeit zum Essen fanden. 21 Als seine Angehörigen das erfuhren, machten sie sich auf, um ihn mit Gewalt zurückzuholen. Sie waren überzeugt[k], dass er den Verstand verloren hatte.

Jesus und Beelzebul. Die Sünde gegen den Heiligen Geist

22 Die Schriftgelehrten, die von Jerusalem herabgekommen waren, behaupteten: »Er steht im Bund mit Beelzebul[l]; er treibt die Dämonen mit Hilfe des Obersten der Dämonen aus.« 23 Jesus rief sie zu sich, um ihnen eine Antwort zu geben; er gebrauchte dazu eine Reihe von Vergleichen. »Wie kann der Satan den Satan austreiben?«, fragte er sie. 24 »Wenn ein Reich mit sich selbst im Streit liegt, kann dieses Reich nicht bestehen. 25 Und wenn eine Familie mit sich selbst im Streit liegt, kann diese Familie nicht bestehen. 26 Wenn nun der Satan sich gegen sich selbst erhebt und mit sich selbst in Streit gerät, kann sein Reich[m] keinen Bestand haben; es ist aus mit ihm.

27 Andererseits kann aber auch niemand in das Haus eines Starken eindringen und ihm seinen Besitz rauben, wenn er den Starken nicht vorher fesselt. Dann allerdings kann er sein Haus ausrauben.

28 Ich sage euch: Alles kann den Menschen vergeben werden, jede Sünde, die sie begehen, und jede Gotteslästerung, die sie aussprechen. 29 Wer aber den Heiligen Geist lästert, dem wird in Ewigkeit nicht vergeben werden. Er hat mit dieser Sünde eine ewige Schuld auf sich geladen.[n]« 30 Das sagte er zu ihnen, weil sie behaupteten, er habe einen bösen[o] Geist.

Die wahren Verwandten Jesu

31 Inzwischen waren Jesu Mutter und seine Geschwister gekommen. Sie blieben vor dem Haus stehen und schickten jemand zu ihm, um ihn zu rufen. 32 Die Menschen saßen dicht gedrängt um Jesus herum, als man ihm ausrichtete: »Deine Mutter und deine Brüder und Schwestern[p] sind draußen und wollen dich sprechen[q].« – 33 »Wer ist meine Mutter, und wer sind meine Geschwister?«, erwiderte Jesus[r]. 34 Er sah die an, die rings um ihn herum saßen, und fuhr fort: »Seht, das sind meine Mutter und meine Geschwister! 35 Denn wer den Willen Gottes tut, der ist mein Bruder, meine Schwester und meine Mutter.«

Healing on the Sabbath(A)

And (B)He entered the synagogue again, and a man was there who had a withered hand. So they (C)watched Him closely, whether He would (D)heal him on the Sabbath, so that they might [a]accuse Him. And He said to the man who had the withered hand, [b]“Step forward.” Then He said to them, “Is it lawful on the Sabbath to do good or to do evil, to save life or to kill?” But they kept silent. And when He had looked around at them with anger, being grieved by the (E)hardness of their hearts, He said to the man, “Stretch out your hand.” And he stretched it out, and his hand was restored [c]as whole as the other. (F)Then the Pharisees went out and immediately plotted with (G)the Herodians against Him, how they might destroy Him.

A Great Multitude Follows Jesus(H)

But Jesus withdrew with His disciples to the sea. And a great multitude from Galilee followed Him, (I)and from Judea and Jerusalem and Idumea and beyond the Jordan; and those from Tyre and Sidon, a great multitude, when they heard how (J)many things He was doing, came to Him. So He told His disciples that a small boat should be kept ready for Him because of the multitude, lest they should crush Him. 10 For He healed (K)many, so that as many as had afflictions pressed about Him to (L)touch Him. 11 (M)And the unclean spirits, whenever they saw Him, fell down before Him and cried out, saying, (N)“You are the Son of God.” 12 But (O)He sternly warned them that they should not make Him known.

The Twelve Apostles(P)

13 (Q)And He went up on the mountain and called to Him those He Himself wanted. And they came to Him. 14 Then He appointed twelve, [d]that they might be with Him and that He might send them out to preach, 15 and to have [e]power [f]to heal sicknesses and to cast out demons: 16 [g]Simon, (R)to whom He gave the name Peter; 17 James the son of Zebedee and John the brother of James, to whom He gave the name Boanerges, that is, “Sons of Thunder”; 18 Andrew, Philip, Bartholomew, Matthew, Thomas, James the son of Alphaeus, Thaddaeus, Simon the Cananite; 19 and Judas Iscariot, who also betrayed Him. And they went into a house.

A House Divided Cannot Stand(S)

20 Then the multitude came together again, (T)so that they could not so much as eat bread. 21 But when His (U)own people heard about this, they went out to lay hold of Him, (V)for they said, “He is out of His mind.”

22 And the scribes who came down from Jerusalem said, (W)“He has Beelzebub,” and, “By the (X)ruler of the demons He casts out demons.”

23 (Y)So He called them to Himself and said to them in parables: “How can Satan cast out Satan? 24 If a kingdom is divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand. 25 And if a house is divided against itself, that house cannot stand. 26 And if Satan has risen up against himself, and is divided, he cannot stand, but has an end. 27 (Z)No one can enter a strong man’s house and plunder his goods, unless he first binds the strong man. And then he will plunder his house.

The Unpardonable Sin(AA)

28 (AB)“Assuredly, I say to you, all sins will be forgiven the sons of men, and whatever blasphemies they may utter; 29 but he who blasphemes against the Holy Spirit never has forgiveness, but is subject to eternal condemnation” 30 because they (AC)said, “He has an unclean spirit.”

Jesus’ Mother and Brothers Send for Him(AD)

31 (AE)Then His brothers and His mother came, and standing outside they sent to Him, calling Him. 32 And a multitude was sitting around Him; and they said to Him, “Look, Your mother and Your brothers [h]are outside seeking You.”

33 But He answered them, saying, “Who is My mother, or My brothers?” 34 And He looked around in a circle at those who sat about Him, and said, “Here are My mother and My brothers! 35 For whoever does the (AF)will of God is My brother and My sister and mother.”

Jesus Heals on the Sabbath

Another time Jesus went into the synagogue,(A) and a man with a shriveled hand was there. Some of them were looking for a reason to accuse Jesus, so they watched him closely(B) to see if he would heal him on the Sabbath.(C) Jesus said to the man with the shriveled hand, “Stand up in front of everyone.”

Then Jesus asked them, “Which is lawful on the Sabbath: to do good or to do evil, to save life or to kill?” But they remained silent.

He looked around at them in anger and, deeply distressed at their stubborn hearts, said to the man, “Stretch out your hand.” He stretched it out, and his hand was completely restored. Then the Pharisees went out and began to plot with the Herodians(D) how they might kill Jesus.(E)

Crowds Follow Jesus(F)

Jesus withdrew with his disciples to the lake, and a large crowd from Galilee followed.(G) When they heard about all he was doing, many people came to him from Judea, Jerusalem, Idumea, and the regions across the Jordan and around Tyre and Sidon.(H) Because of the crowd he told his disciples to have a small boat ready for him, to keep the people from crowding him. 10 For he had healed many,(I) so that those with diseases were pushing forward to touch him.(J) 11 Whenever the impure spirits saw him, they fell down before him and cried out, “You are the Son of God.”(K) 12 But he gave them strict orders not to tell others about him.(L)

Jesus Appoints the Twelve(M)

13 Jesus went up on a mountainside and called to him those he wanted, and they came to him.(N) 14 He appointed twelve[a](O) that they might be with him and that he might send them out to preach 15 and to have authority to drive out demons.(P) 16 These are the twelve he appointed: Simon (to whom he gave the name Peter),(Q) 17 James son of Zebedee and his brother John (to them he gave the name Boanerges, which means “sons of thunder”), 18 Andrew, Philip, Bartholomew, Matthew, Thomas, James son of Alphaeus, Thaddaeus, Simon the Zealot 19 and Judas Iscariot, who betrayed him.

Jesus Accused by His Family and by Teachers of the Law(R)(S)

20 Then Jesus entered a house, and again a crowd gathered,(T) so that he and his disciples were not even able to eat.(U) 21 When his family[b] heard about this, they went to take charge of him, for they said, “He is out of his mind.”(V)

22 And the teachers of the law who came down from Jerusalem(W) said, “He is possessed by Beelzebul!(X) By the prince of demons he is driving out demons.”(Y)

23 So Jesus called them over to him and began to speak to them in parables:(Z) “How can Satan(AA) drive out Satan? 24 If a kingdom is divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand. 25 If a house is divided against itself, that house cannot stand. 26 And if Satan opposes himself and is divided, he cannot stand; his end has come. 27 In fact, no one can enter a strong man’s house without first tying him up. Then he can plunder the strong man’s house.(AB) 28 Truly I tell you, people can be forgiven all their sins and every slander they utter, 29 but whoever blasphemes against the Holy Spirit will never be forgiven; they are guilty of an eternal sin.”(AC)

30 He said this because they were saying, “He has an impure spirit.”

31 Then Jesus’ mother and brothers arrived.(AD) Standing outside, they sent someone in to call him. 32 A crowd was sitting around him, and they told him, “Your mother and brothers are outside looking for you.”

33 “Who are my mother and my brothers?” he asked.

34 Then he looked at those seated in a circle around him and said, “Here are my mother and my brothers! 35 Whoever does God’s will is my brother and sister and mother.”

A Man with a Withered Hand

(A)Again (B)he entered the synagogue, and a man was there with a withered hand. And (C)they watched Jesus,[a] to see whether he would heal him on the Sabbath, so that they might accuse him. And he said to the man with the withered hand, “Come here.” And he said to them, (D)“Is it lawful on the Sabbath to do good or to do harm, to save life or to kill?” But they were silent. And he (E)looked around at them with anger, grieved at (F)their hardness of heart, and said to the man, “Stretch out your hand.” (G)He stretched it out, and his hand was restored. (H)The Pharisees went out and immediately (I)held counsel with (J)the Herodians against him, how to destroy him.

A Great Crowd Follows Jesus

(K)Jesus withdrew with his disciples to the sea, and (L)a great crowd followed, from Galilee and Judea and Jerusalem and (M)Idumea and from beyond the Jordan and from around (N)Tyre and Sidon. When the great crowd heard all that he was doing, they came to him. And he told his disciples to (O)have a boat ready for him because of the crowd, lest they (P)crush him, 10 for (Q)he had healed many, so that all who had (R)diseases pressed around him (S)to touch him. 11 (T)And whenever the unclean spirits saw him, they (U)fell down before him and cried out, “You are (V)the Son of God.” 12 And (W)he strictly ordered them not to make him known.

The Twelve Apostles

13 (X)And he went up on the mountain and called to him those (Y)whom he desired, and they came to him. 14 (Z)And he appointed twelve (whom he also named apostles) so that they might be with him and he might send them out to preach 15 (AA)and have authority to cast out demons. 16 He appointed the twelve: (AB)Simon (to whom (AC)he gave the name Peter); 17 (AD)James the son of Zebedee and John the brother of James (to whom he gave the name Boanerges, that is, Sons of Thunder); 18 Andrew, and Philip, and Bartholomew, and (AE)Matthew, and Thomas, and James the son of Alphaeus, and Thaddaeus, and Simon the Zealot,[b] 19 and Judas Iscariot, who betrayed him.

20 Then he went (AF)home, and the crowd gathered again, (AG)so that they could not even eat. 21 (AH)And when (AI)his family heard it, they went out to seize him, for they were saying, “He (AJ)is out of his mind.”

Blasphemy Against the Holy Spirit

22 And (AK)the scribes who came down from Jerusalem were saying, (AL)“He is possessed by Beelzebul,” and “by the prince of demons he casts out the demons.” 23 (AM)And he called them to him and said to them in parables, “How can Satan cast out Satan? 24 If a kingdom is divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand. 25 And if a house is divided against itself, that house will not be able to stand. 26 And if Satan has risen up against himself and is divided, he cannot stand, but is coming to an end. 27 But (AN)no one can enter a strong man's house and plunder his goods, unless he first binds the strong man. (AO)Then indeed he may plunder his house.

28 (AP)“Truly, I say to you, all sins will be forgiven the children of man, and whatever blasphemies they utter, 29 but whoever (AQ)blasphemes against the Holy Spirit never has forgiveness, but is guilty of an eternal sin” 30 for they were saying, “He has an unclean spirit.”

Jesus' Mother and Brothers

31 (AR)And his mother and his (AS)brothers came, and standing outside they sent to him and called him. 32 And a crowd was sitting around him, and they said to him, “Your mother and your brothers[c] are outside, seeking you.” 33 And he answered them, “Who are my mother and my brothers?” 34 And (AT)looking about at those who sat around him, he said, “Here are my mother and my brothers! 35 (AU)For whoever (AV)does the will of God, he is my brother and sister and mother.”
