Peter,q answering, said, The Christ of God. 21 And he straitly charged them, and commanded them to tell no man that thing; 22 Saying, the Son r of man must suffer many things, and be rejected of the elders and chief priests and Ps.78.19,20. scribes, and be slain, and be raised the third day, Jno.6.5, &c.

And they said, We have no more but five loaves and 17.22. Mat.10.38.

Master, wes saw one casting out devils in thy name; and we forbad him, because he followeth not with us. 50 And Jesus said unto him, Forbid him not: for t he that is not against us, is for us. 51 T And it came to pass, when the time was come that he should be received u up, he steadfastly set his face to go to Jerusalem, 52 And sent messengers before his face and they went, and entered into a village of the Samaritans, v to make ready for him. 53 And they did not receive him. because his face was as though he would go to Jerusalem. 54 And when his disciples James and John saw this, they said, Lord, wilt thou that we command fire to come down from heaven, and consume them, even as Elias to did? 55 But he turned and rebuked them, and said, Ye know not what manner of spirit ye are of. 56 For the Son of man is not come to destroy men's lives, but to save them. And they went to another village. 57 ¶ Andy it came to pass, that, as they went in the way, a certain man said unto him, Lord, I will follow thee whithersoever thou goest. 58 And Jesus said unto him, Foxes have holes, and birds of the air have nests; but the Son of man hath not where to lay his head. 59 And he said unto another, Follow me. But he said, Lord, suffer z me first to go and bury my father. 60 Jesus said unto him, Let the dead bury their dead; but go thou and preach the kingdom of God. 61 And another also said, Lord, 1 will follow thee; but let me first go bid them farewell which are at home at my house. 62 And Jesus said unto him. No man, having put his hand to the plough, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God. The seventy sent forth his face into every city and place, whither he himself would come. 2 Therefore said he unto them, bb The harvest truly is great, but the c labourers are few: pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he would send forth labourers into his harvest. 3 Go your ways: behold, I send you forth as lambs among wolves. 4 Carry d neither purse, nor scrip, nor shoes and e salute no man by the way. 5 And into whatsoever house ye enter, first say, Peace be to this house. e LUKE, X.
