12 At once the Spirit {Pneuma} drove Jesus into the wilderness (solitary place), 13 and He was there for forty days, being tempted by Satan (the adversary). He was with the wild animals, and the angels (messengers) ministered to Him. 14 After the arrest of John (YHWH is gracious), Jesus (YHWH saves) went into Galilee (circuit) and proclaimed the gospel (good news) of God [the gospel of the kingdom of God]. 15 “The time is fulfilled, He said, “and the kingdom of God {Theou} is near. Repent and believe in the gospel (good news)! 16 As Jesus was walking beside the Sea of Galilee (circuit), He saw Simon (hearing) and his brother Andrew (manly). They were casting a net into the sea, for they were fishermen. 17 “Come, follow Me, Jesus (YHWH saves) said, “and I will make you⁺ fishers of men. 18 And at once they left their nets and followed Him. 19 Going on a little farther, He saw James (supplanter / follower) son of Zebedee (YHWH has given) and his brother John (YHWH is gracious). They were in a boat, mending their nets. 20 Immediately Jesus called them, and they left their father {patera} Zebedee (YHWH has given) in the boat with the hired men and followed Him. 21 Then Jesus and His companions went to Capernaum (village of comfort), and right away Jesus entered the synagogue on the Sabbath and began to teach. 22 The people were astonished at His teaching {didachē}, because He taught {didaskōn} as one who had authority, and not as the scribes. 23 Suddenly a man with an unclean (impure) spirit {pneumati} cried out in the synagogue: 24 “What do You want with us, Jesus (YHWH saves) of Nazareth (branch)? Have You come to destroy us? I know who You are—the Holy One of God {Theou}! 25 But Jesus (YHWH saves) rebuked the spirit. “Be silent! He said. “Come out of him! 26 At this, the unclean (impure) spirit {pneuma} threw the man into convulsions and came out with a loud shriek. 27 All the people were amazed and began to ask one another, “What is this? A new teaching {didachē} with authority! He commands even the unclean (impure) spirits {pneumasi}, and they obey Him! 28 And the news about Jesus spread quickly through the whole region of Galilee (circuit). 29 As soon as Jesus and His companions had left the synagogue, they went with James (supplanter / follower) and John (YHWH is gracious) to the home of Simon (hearing) and Andrew (manly). 30 Simon’s mother-in-law was sick in bed with a fever, and they promptly told Jesus about her. 31 So He went to her, took her by the hand, and helped her up. The fever left her, and she began to serve them. 32 That evening, after sunset, people brought to Jesus all the sick and demon-possessed, 33 and the whole town gathered at the door. 34 And He healed many who were ill with various diseases and drove out many demons. But He would not allow the demons to speak, because they knew who He was. 35 Early in the morning, while it was still dark, Jesus got up and went out to a solitary (wilderness) place to pray. 36 Simon (hearing) and his companions went to look for Him, 37 and when they found Him, they said, “Everyone is looking for You! 38 But Jesus answered, “Let us go on to the neighboring towns so I can preach there as well, for that is why I have come. 39 So He went throughout Galilee (circuit), preaching in their synagogues and driving out demons. 40 Then a leper 41 Moved with compassion [Moved with indignation], Jesus reached out His hand and touched the man. “I am willing, He said. “Be clean! 42 And immediately the leprosy left him, and the man was cleansed. 43 Jesus promptly sent him away with a stern warning: 44 “See that you don’t tell anyone. But go, show yourself to the priest and present the offering Moses (drawn out) prescribed for your cleansing, as a testimony to them 45 But the man went out and openly began to proclaim and spread the news. Consequently, Jesus (YHWH saves) could no longer enter a town in plain view, but He stayed out in solitary (wilderness) places. Yet people came to Him from every quarter.
