For the Torah was given through Moshe; grace and truth came through Yeshua the Messiah.
-
The next day, Yochanan saw Yeshua coming toward him and said, “Look! God’s lamb! The one who is taking away the sin of the world!
-
On seeing Yeshua walking by, he said, “Look! God’s lamb!”
-
His two talmidim heard him speaking, and they followed Yeshua.
-
Yeshua turned and saw them following him, and he asked them, “What are you looking for?” They said to him, “Rabbi!” (which means “Teacher!”) “Where are you staying?”
-
One of the two who had heard Yochanan and had followed Yeshua was Andrew the brother of Shim‘on Kefa.
-
He took him to Yeshua. Looking at him, Yeshua said, “You are Shim‘on Bar-Yochanan; you will be known as Kefa.” (The name means “rock.”)
-
The next day, having decided to leave for the Galil, Yeshua found Philip and said, “Follow me!”
-
Philip found Natan’el and told him, “We’ve found the one that Moshe wrote about in the Torah, also the Prophets — it’s Yeshua Ben-Yosef from Natzeret!”
-
Yeshua saw Natan’el coming toward him and remarked about him, “Here’s a true son of Isra’el — nothing false in him!”
-
Natan’el said to him, “How do you know me?” Yeshua answered him, “Before Philip called you, when you were under the fig tree, I saw you.”
-
Yeshua answered him, “you believe all this just because I told you I saw you under the fig tree? You will see greater things than that!”
-
On Tuesday there was a wedding at Kanah in the Galil; and the mother of Yeshua was there.
-
Yeshua too was invited to the wedding, along with his talmidim.
-
The wine ran out, and Yeshua’s mother said to him, “They have no more wine.”
-
Yeshua replied, “Mother, why should that concern me? — or you? My time hasn’t come yet.”
-
Yeshua told them, “Fill the jars with water,” and they filled them to the brim.
-
This, the first of Yeshua’s miraculous signs, he did at Kanah in the Galil; he manifested his glory, and his talmidim came to trust in him.
-
It was almost time for the festival of Pesach in Y’hudah, so Yeshua went up to Yerushalayim.
-
Yeshua answered them, “Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up again.”
-
Therefore, when he was raised from the dead, his talmidim remembered that he had said this, and they trusted in the Tanakh and in what Yeshua had said.
-
Now while Yeshua was in Yerushalayim at the Pesach festival, there were many people who “believed in his name” when they saw the miracles he performed.
-
This man came to Yeshua by night and said to him, “Rabbi, we know it is from God that you have come as a teacher; for no one can do these miracles you perform unless God is with him.”
-
“Yes, indeed,” Yeshua answered him, “I tell you that unless a person is born again from above, he cannot see the Kingdom of God.”
-
Yeshua answered, “Yes, indeed, I tell you that unless a person is born from water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the Kingdom of God.
