and shall restore all things: |
|
|
|
|

but I say into you, that Elijah is come already,
and they knew him not, but did unto him whatsoever they would. Even so shall the
Son of man also suffer of them. |

into the water. |

faith: for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed,
ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove;
and nothing shall be impossible unto you. |
| |
|
|
|

|
But this kind goeth not out save by prayer and
fasting. |
|
|
|
|

unto them, The Son of man shall be delivered up into the hands of men; |
|
|
|
|

shall be raised up. And they were exceeding sorry. |

earth, from whom do they receive toll or tribute? from their sons, or from strangers?
|
|
|
|
|
|
Matthew 17:26
|
|
And when he said, From strangers, Jesus said

|
|
|
|
|

But, lest we cause them to stumble, go thou
to the sea, and cast a hook, and take up the fish that first cometh up; and when
thou hast opened his mouth, thou shalt find a shekel: that take, and give unto
them for me and thee. |
