1:9]In those days came Jesus from Nazareth of Galilee, and was
baptized in the Jordan by John; [1:10]and going up immediately out of
the water, he saw the heavens opened, and the Spirit descend like a
dove upon him; [1:11]and there was a voice from heaven, You are my
beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased. [1:12]And the Spirit
immediately drove him into the wilderness, [1:13]and he was in the
wilderness forty days, tempted by Satan, and was with the beasts; and
the angels waited on him.

5 [1:14]And after John was delivered up Jesus came into Galilee
preaching the good news of God, [1:15]saying, The time is completed,
and the kingdom of God is at hand; change your minds and believe in the
good news. [1:16]And passing along by the lake of Galilee, he saw
Simon, and Andrew, Simon's brother, casting [a net] into the lake, for

[1:27]And all were astonished, so that they inquired among themselves,
saying, What is this? a new teaching with authority, and does he

house of Simon and Andrew with James and John; [1:30]and Simon's
mother-in-law was lying with a fever; and immediately they told him of
