RF MAR 9:1 "I tell you indeed," He went on to declare, "that there are some of those standing here who shall not taste of death, until they see the Kingdom of God appearing with power."
RF MAR 9:2 The Glorification on the Mount.
And six days later, Jesus took Peter, James, and John, and went with them privately by themselves into a high mountain. And He was transformed in their presence;
RF MAR 9:3 when His garments became sparkling bright, exceedingly white as snow, such as no bleacher on earth could whiten them.
RF MAR 9:4 Elijah and Moses then appeared to them: and they conversed with Jesus.
RF MAR 9:5 Then Peter said to Jesus, "How delightful it is to be here! Let us make three tents; one for You, one for Moses, and one for Elijah."
RF MAR 9:6 For he knew not what he should say, being, as they were, exceedingly terrified.
RF MAR 9:7 A cloud also came, overshadowing them; and a voice came out of the cloud: "This is My Son, My Beloved: listen to Him!"
RF MAR 9:8 And suddenly looking round, they saw no one, except Jesus, alone with themselves.
RF MAR 9:9 And while they were coming down from the mountain, He specially instructed them that they should disclose to no one what they had seen, until the Son of Man had risen from the dead.
RF MAR 9:10 They, however, retained the event in their memory, puzzling themselves about this rising from the dead.
RF MAR 9:11 They also asked Him, "Why do the professors say that Elijah must come first?"
RF MAR 9:12 "Elijah certainly coming first, will restore all," He replied. "And how is it written about the Son of Man? That He must suffer much, and be treated with contempt?
RF MAR 9:13 I tell you, however, that Elijah has indeed come; and they have done to him whatever they liked, as it was written about him."
RF MAR 9:14 The Speechless Spirit.
Coming then to His disciples, He observed a great mob around them, and the professors engaged in discussion with them.
RF MAR 9:15 But as soon as they saw Him, all the crowd were much astonished; and, rushing forward, they saluted Him.
RF MAR 9:16 He then inquired of the professors, "What are you arguing against them?"
RF MAR 9:17 "Teacher," one of them answered, "I brought to You my son, who has a speechless spirit in possession of him;
RF MAR 9:18 and whenever it seizes him, it throws him down, when he foams and grinds his teeth, and he wastes away. I accordingly asked Your disciples to expel it; but they have not the power."
RF MAR 9:19 "What a skeptical race!" He exclaimed, in reply. "Until when must I remain with you? Until when must I be burdened with you? Bring him to Me."
RF MAR 9:20 They accordingly brought him to Him; and, on seeing Him, the spirit at once convulsed him painfully; and, falling upon the ground, he wallowed, foaming. He then asked his father,
RF MAR 9:21 "What length of time is it since this came to him?"
"From childhood," he replied.
RF MAR 9:22 "And it often throws him into the fire, and into the water, so that it may put an end to him. If, however, anything is possible, have pity upon us, and help us."
RF MAR 9:23 "That depends upon yourself," said Jesus to him; "if you only believe, all is possible to the believer."
RF MAR 9:24 "I do believe," exclaimed the father at once; "succour me in my unbelief!"
RF MAR 9:25 Seeing, however, that the crowd rushed together, Jesus rebuked the foul spirit, saying to him, "You speechless and deaf spirit, I command you to go out of him, and never enter him again."
RF MAR 9:26 Then shrieking, and convulsing him, it took its departure; and he became as if dead, so that many said, "He is dead."
RF MAR 9:27 But Jesus took his hand, lifting him, and he stood up.
RF MAR 9:28 And having entered a house, His disciples asked Him privately, "Why were we powerless to cast him out?"
RF MAR 9:29 "This sort can only be expelled by means of prayer and fasting," He told them in reply.
RF MAR 9:30 The Betrayal Foretold.
Then going away from there, they travelled through Galilee; and He did not wish any one to know it:
RF MAR 9:31 because He was teaching His disciples, and repeating to them that "The Son of Man will be betrayed into the hands of men, and they will murder Him; but having been murdered, He will rise again after three days."
RF MAR 9:32 They did not, however, comprehend this statement, and they were afraid to ask Him.
RF MAR 9:33 Nobility Illustrated.
When they had come to Capernaum, and had entered the house, He asked them, "What were you discussing among yourselves on the road?"
RF MAR 9:34 But they kept silent; because upon the journey they had been arguing as to who was the greatest.
RF MAR 9:35 Then sitting down, He called the twelve, and said to them, "If any one wishes to be first, let him be the last, and the attendant upon all."
RF MAR 9:36 And taking a little child, He placed it in the midst of them; and caressing it, He said to them,
RF MAR 9:37 "If any one shall accept one child such as this for My Name's sake, he accepts Me; and if any one accepts Me, he accepts not Myself only, but My Sender."
RF MAR 9:38 John said to Him, "Teacher, we saw a man casting out demons by means of Your Name; and we forbade him, because he was not one of our followers."
RF MAR 9:39 Jesus, however, said, "Do not forbid him; for no one who works a miracle in My Name, can easily speak ill of Me:
RF MAR 9:40 because he who is not against us is upon our side.
RF MAR 9:41 And whoever gives you a cup of water to drink because you bear the name of the Messiah, I tell you indeed, that he shall by no means go unrewarded.
RF MAR 9:42 And, on the other hand, whoever causes one of the weakest believers in Me to fall, it would be much better for him to have a large millstone hung round his neck, and be flung into the sea.
RF MAR 9:43 If even your hand should cause you to fall, cut it off! It will be better for you to enter into life maimed, than possessing both hands to go into Gehenna, into the inextinguishable fire;
RF MAR 9:44 where their worm never ends, and the fire is not quenched.
RF MAR 9:45 And if your foot leads you astray, cut it off! It will be better for you to enter into life lame, than having two feet to be flung into Gehenna, into the inextinguishable fire;
RF MAR 9:46 where their worm never ends, and the fire is not quenched.
RF MAR 9:47 And if your eye makes you fall, throw it away! It will be better for you to enter into the Kingdom of God with but one eye, than possessing both eyes, to be thrown into the fire of Gehenna;
RF MAR 9:48 where their worm never ends, and the fire is not quenched.
RF MAR 9:49 For every one shall be salted by fire, as EVERY SACRIFICE IS SALTED WITH SALT.1
RF MAR 9:50 Salt is useful; but if the salt-rock should become saltless, how can itself be seasoned? Have salt in yourselves, and live at peace together."
