RF LUK 6:1 In the Corn Fields.
It once happened on a Sabbath that He was going through the corn-fields; and His disciples plucked the ears of corn, rubbing them in their hands, and ate them.
RF LUK 6:2 But some of the Pharisees said to them, "Why do you what is not allowable on Sabbaths?"
RF LUK 6:3 Jesus answered, "Have you never read this, what David did when he and those who were with him were hungry?
RF LUK 6:4 how he entered the house of God, and took the shew-bread, and ate it, giving also to his companions; although it is allowed to be eaten by none but the priests?
RF LUK 6:5 The Son of Man," He further said, "is Master even of the Sabbath."
RF LUK 6:6 A Withered Hand Restored.
On another Sabbath, He entered the synagogue and taught; and a man was there whose right hand was withered.
RF LUK 6:7 The professors and Pharisees accordingly watched Him, to see if He would cure on the Sabbath; in Order that they might lay an information against Him.
RF LUK 6:8 Divining their reasoning's, however, He said to the man who had the withered hand, "Get up, and stand out among us." So he arose and stood.
RF LUK 6:9 Jesus then said to them, "I ask you plainly, Is it allowable on the Sabbath to benefit or to injure? to save a life or to destroy it?"
RF LUK 6:10 Then looking round upon them all, He said to the man, "Extend your hand!" He did so; and his hand was restored like the other.
RF LUK 6:11 But they became mad with annoyance; and discussed among themselves what they could do to Jesus.
RF LUK 6:12 The Twelve Chosen.
About this time He went out, going into the mountain to pray; and He passed the whole night in prayer to God.
RF LUK 6:13 And when it was day, He called His disciples, and from among them He chose twelve, whom he named Apostles:
RF LUK 6:14 Simon, whom He also named Peter; and Andrew his brother; James and John; Philip and Bartholomew;
RF LUK 6:15 Matthew and Thomas; James the son of Alpheus; Simon, who was called the Zealot;
RF LUK 6:16 Judah the son of James; and Judas of Iscariot, who, however, became His betrayer.
RF LUK 6:17 And descending with them, He stopped upon a level place, with a large number of his disciples, and a great crowd of people from all parts of Judea and Jerusalem, and the neighborhood of Tyre and Sidon; who came to listen to Him, and to be cured of their mental sufferings.
RF LUK 6:18 Those also He cured who were tormented by foul spirits.
RF LUK 6:19 And all the crowd tried to touch Him; because power issued from Him, and cured them all.
RF LUK 6:20 The Happy and the Miserable.
Then gazing upon His disciples, He so said:
"Blessed are you poor; for yours is the Kingdom of God.
RF LUK 6:21 "Blessed are you who hunger now; for you shall be satisfied.
"Blessed are you who weep now; for you shall laugh.
RF LUK 6:22 "Blessed are you when men shall hate you, and when they shall expel and curse you, and bandy your name about as vile, for the sake of the Son of Man.
RF LUK 6:23 Rejoice in that day, and dance! for your reward is abundant in heaven; for their forefathers did the same to the prophets.
RF LUK 6:24 "But alas for you who are rich! because you have taken your comfort.
RF LUK 6:25 "Alas for you who are filled! because you shall be hungry. Alas for you who now rejoice! because you shall mourn.
RF LUK 6:26 "Alas, when men speak well of you! for this was what their forefathers did of the false prophets.
RF LUK 6:27 The Law of Love.
"But I say to you, my hearers: Love your enemies; act nobly to those who hate you;
RF LUK 6:28 bless those who curse you; pray for those who assault you.
RF LUK 6:29 If a man strike you on one cheek, offer him the other; and if a man steal your coat, do not prevent him having your vest as well.
RF LUK 6:30 "Give to all who beg from you; and from the plunderer of your property, plunder not again.
RF LUK 6:31 "And as you wish men to do to you, do the same to them.
RF LUK 6:32 For if you only love those who love you, what credit is it to you? for even the wicked love those who love them.
RF LUK 6:33 And if you only benefit those who benefit you, what credit is it to you? why, even the wicked do the same thing!
RF LUK 6:34 "And if you merely lend to those from whom you hope to receive back, what credit is that to you? even the wicked lend to the wicked, in order that they may receive an equivalent.
RF LUK 6:35 "But instead, love your enemies.
"Be beneficent, and lend, expecting nothing in return.
"And your reward will be abundant, and you will be the sons of the Highest.
For He is benevolent both to the ungrateful and the wicked.
RF LUK 6:36 "Become, therefore, kind-hearted, just as your Father is kind-hearted.
RF LUK 6:37 "Judge not, and you will not be judged.
"Condemn not and you will not be condemned.
"Acquit, and you shall be acquitted.
RF LUK 6:38 "Give, and it will be given to you. Fair measure, pressed down, well-shaken, and overflowing, they will put into your bag. For with the same measure with which you measure, it will be measured back to you."
RF LUK 6:39 Sincerity.
He then told them a parable:
"Can a blind man guide the blind? Would not both fall into a ditch?
RF LUK 6:40 "The pupil is not above his teacher; but every one who is perfected shall be like his teacher.
RF LUK 6:41 "And why do you look at the dust in your brother's; eye, when you do not notice the chip in your own eye?
RF LUK 6:42 Or how can you say to your brother, 'Brother, allow me to pick the dust from your eye,' while you do not perceive the chip that is in your own eye? You play-actor! first clear away the chip from your own eye, and then you will see perfectly to remove the dust from the eye of your brother.
RF LUK 6:43 "That is not a good tree which produces bad fruit; nor does a worthless tree produce good fruit.
RF LUK 6:44 "For every tree is distinguished by its own produce. For figs are not to be picked from thorns; nor yet grapes from thistles.
RF LUK 6:45 "The benevolent man produces goodness from the treasured beneficence of his heart; while the depraved man produces wickedness from the treasured depravity of his heart: for out of the overflow of the heart his mouth speaks.
RF LUK 6:46 True and False Foundations.
"Then why do you address Me, 'Master, Master,' and yet do not practice what I say?
RF LUK 6:47 Whoever comes to Me, and listens to My message, and complies with it, I will show you what he is like.
RF LUK 6:48 He is like a man building a house, who digged, and kept deepening, and laid a foundation upon the rock; and when an inundation came, and the river rushed towards that house, it could not shake it, because of its good foundation.
RF LUK 6:49 "But, on the other hand, the listener who does not practice, is like a man building a house without a foundation upon the land: against which the river rushed, and at once it fell in a heap; and the wreck of that house was great."
