shall not live by bread alone, but
bv every word OF God.
5 and the devil, taking him up
into an high mountain, showed I'M
to HIM all the Kingdoms OF the
world ir moment of time.

into the synagogue ON the sab
bath day, and stood up for to read.
II And there was delivered un-
to him the book of the prophet
Esaias. And when he had opened
the book, he found the place where
it was written,

on me, becaus he hath anolnted
me to preach the gospel TO the
poor; he hath sent me to heal
the brokenhearted, to preach de-
liverance to the captives, ana
recovering of sight to the blind,
to set at liberty them that are
F'uiSed
10 To preach the acceptable
year of the Lord.
20 And he closed the book, ana
re gave it again to the minister,
and sat down. And the eyes OF
all them that were in the syna-
gogue were fastened on him.
II And he began to say unto
them. This day is this scripture
fulfilled in your ears.
% And all bare him witness,
and wondered at the gracious
words which proceeded out of his
mouth. And they said, Is not this
JOseph's son?

will surely say unto me THIS
proverb, Physician, heal myself

in Capernaum, do also here IN
thy country.

you, No prophet is accepted in his
own country.

six months, when the great famine
was throughout all the land;
&c But unto none of them was
Elias sent, save unto Sarepta, a
city of Sidon. unto a woman that
was a widow.
81 And many lepers were in Is
rael in the time of Eliseus the
prophet; and none of them was
cleansed, saving Naaman the
Syrian.
% And all they in the syna-
gogue, when they heard these
things, were filled with wrath,
20 And rose up, and thrust him
out of the city, and led him unto
the brow of the hill wherein their
city was built, that they might
cast him down headlong.
80 But he passing through the
midst of them went his way,
81 And came down to Caperna-
