RF MAT 14:1 The Murder of John the Baptizer.
About this time Herod the tetrarch heard the report concerning Jesus,
RF MAT 14:2 and said to his companions, "This is John the Baptizer; he must have risen from the dead, and therefore the powers energize him!"
RF MAT 14:3 For Herod had arrested John, put him in chains, and sent him to prison, on account of Herodia, the wife of his own brother Philip;
RF MAT 14:4 because John had told him, "It is not legal for you to have her."
RF MAT 14:5 And although wishing to murder him, he was afraid of the people, because all honored him as a prophet.
RF MAT 14:6 At Herod's birthday feast, however, the daughter of Herodia danced before the guests, and delighted Herod.
RF MAT 14:7 He thereupon promised with an oath to give her whatever she might ask.
RF MAT 14:8 And she, having been previously instigated by her mother, said, "Give me here upon a dish the head of John the Baptizer!"
RF MAT 14:9 The king was horrified; but because of his oaths, and those who reclined with him, he ordered it to be given to her.
RF MAT 14:10 And sending, he beheaded John in the prison.
RF MAT 14:11 And his head was brought upon a dish, and handed to the girl; and she carried it to her mother!
RF MAT 14:12 His disciples then came forward, took the body, and buried it; and went to report it to Jesus.
RF MAT 14:13 The Feeding of Five Thousand.
And Jesus hearing it, went away privately in a boat to a desert place; but the people having become aware of it, they followed Him by land from the towns.
RF MAT 14:14 When Jesus came out, He saw a great crowd, and pitied them; and restored the sick to health.
RF MAT 14:15 But when the evening came, His disciples approached Him, saying, "This place is a desert, and the hour now late; dismiss the crowd, so that, going into the villages, they may buy food for themselves."
RF MAT 14:16 "They have no need to go away," remarked Jesus in reply; "give them victuals yourselves."
RF MAT 14:17 "We have nothing here," they responded, "except five loaves and two fishes."
RF MAT 14:18 "Bring those to Me," He said.
RF MAT 14:19 And He ordered the crowd to recline up upon the grassy places. And taking the five loaves and the two fishes, looking up to heaven, He blessed; and then breaking, He distributed the loaves to His disciples, and the disciples among the crowd.
RF MAT 14:20 And they all partook and were satisfied; and of the broken pieces remaining, they picked up twelve full bags.
RF MAT 14:21 Now those who had eaten numbered about five thousand, besides women and children.
RF MAT 14:22 He then immediately instructed His disciples to embark in the boat, and to precede Him to the other side, until He could dismiss the crowd.
RF MAT 14:23 When He had sent the crowd away, He went up the hill privately, to pray. And during the evening He was there alone;
RF MAT 14:24 while the boat was now in the middle of the sea, tossed by the waves, for the wind was against them.
RF MAT 14:25 But about three o'clock in the morning He came towards them, walking upon the sea.
RF MAT 14:26 And His disciples, seeing Him walking upon the water, were terrified, exclaiming, "It is a phantom!" and called out for fear.
RF MAT 14:27 Jesus, however, at once spoke to them, saying, "Take courage! I live; be not afraid."
RF MAT 14:28 Peter in reply to Him said, "Master, if You live, order me to come to You upon the waters."
RF MAT 14:29 "Come!" said He. Peter accordingly got out of the boat, and walked upon the water towards Jesus.
RF MAT 14:30 But seeing the strength of the wind, he became afraid; and beginning to sink, he exclaimed, "Master, save me!"
RF MAT 14:31 Jesus at once holding out His hand, lifted him up, and said to him, "Faint heart! Why did you hesitate?"
RF MAT 14:32 And when they had entered the vessel, He lulled the wind.
RF MAT 14:33 Then those in the vessel coming to Him, paid homage, saying, "You most assuredly are a Son of God!"
RF MAT 14:34 And having crossed, they arrived in the land of Gennesaret.
RF MAT 14:35 And the people of that place recognizing Him, sent round the whole of the neighborhood, and brought to Him all those who suffered from sickness;
RF MAT 14:36 and begged that they might only be allowed to touch the hem of His cloak. And as many as touched Him were restored to health.
