42 Mark

Jesus' Baptism

13 Isaiah 42:1-4
42 1Look, my servant, whom I uphold, my elect in whom my soul delights; I have put my spirit on him; he will bring forth justice to the Gentiles.
2He will not cry, nor make a sound, nor cause his voice to be heard in the street.
3A bruised reed he will not break, and a flickering lamp he will not extinguish; he will truly bring forth judgment.
4He will not fail nor be discouraged until he has set justice in the land; and the islands will wait for his law.

42 Mark 1:9-11
9And it came to pass in those days, Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was baptized in the Jordan by John.
10And immediately, as he went up out of the water, he saw the skies were clear open, and the spirit, as a dove, came down on him.
11And a voice came from the skies, You are my beloved son, I am pleased with you.

Parable of the Sower

13 Isaiah 42:5
5Yahvah God, he who created the skies and stretched them out, he who spread forth the land and all that is in it, he who gives breath to the people on it, and spirit to those who walk in it says:

42 Mark 4:1-3
1Again, he began to teach by the sea side; and many people gathered to him, so that he went up and sat in a boat in the sea; and all the people stood on the land by the sea.
2And he taught them much by parables, and in his teaching he said,
3Listen. Look, a sower went out to sow.

Eyes Blinded

13 Isaiah 42:6-9
6I, Yahvah, have called you in righteousness and have held your hand and have strengthened you and have given you for a contract to the people and for a light to the Gentiles;
7that you may open the eyes of the blind, to release prisoners from bondage, and bring out of the prison house those who sit in darkness.
8I am Yahvah; that is my name; and I will not give my glory to another, nor my praise to graven images.
9Look, the former things have come to pass, and new things I declare; before they spring forth I tell you of them.

42 Mark 4:10-13
10When they were alone by themselves, those who were with him, together with the 12, asked him about that parable.
11And Jesus said to them, To you, is given to know the mystery of the kingdom of god, but to the outsiders, everything has to be explained by parables.
12For seeing they see, yet do not perceive; and hearing they hear, but do not understand; if they return, their sins would be forgiven.
13And he said to them, Do you not know this parable? How, then, will you understand all the other parables?

Crossing the Lake

13 Isaiah 42:10-12
10Sing to Yahvah a new song, and his praise from the ends of the land, you who go down to the sea and all that is in it; the islands and those who live in them.
11Let the wilderness and its towns rejoice; let Kedar be meadows; let the inhabitants of the steep rocks sing, let them shout from the top of the mountains.
12Let them give glory to Yahvah and declare his praise in the islands.

42 Mark 4:35-5:0
35On that day, at evening, he said to them, Let us cross over to the landing place.
36And they left the people, and took him away, while he was in the boat. And there were other boats with them.
37And there arose a heavy storm and wind, and the waves kept falling into the boat, so that the boat was nearly filled up.
38But Jesus was sleeping on a blanket in the stern of the boat; and they came and roused him and said to him, Teacher, do you not care that we are perishing?
39So he got up, and rebuked the wind, and said to the sea, Peace, be still. And the wind quieted down, and there was a great calm.
40And he said to them, Why are you so fearful? Why do you have no faith? And they were exceedingly afraid, and said to each other, Who is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?

Legion Defeated

13 Isaiah 42:13
13Yahvah will go forth as a mighty man, he will stir up zealousness like a man of war; he will shout and become valiant; he will slay his enemies.

42 Mark 5:1-13
1And they reached the port on the other side of the sea in the country of the Gerasenes.
2And, as he went out of the boat, he was met by a man from the cemetery, who had an unclean spirit.
3He lived in the cemetery, and no man could bind him in chains,
4because whenever he was bound with shackles and chains, he broke the chains and cut the shackles, and no man could control him.
5And always, night and day, he was in the cemetery and in the mountains, crying aloud and cutting himself with stones.
6When he saw Jesus from far away, he ran and worshiped him,
7and he cried with a loud voice saying, What have we in common, Jesus, son of the most high god? I adjure you by god, not to torment me.
8For he said to him, Get out of the man, unclean spirit.
9And Jesus asked him, What is your name? And he said to him, Our name is Legion, because we are many.
10And he begged him eagerly that he would not send him out of the country.
11Now there was near the mountain a large herd of swine feeding.
12And the lunatics begged him saying, Send us to the swine, that we may attack them.
13And he permitted them. And the lunatics went out and attacked the swine; and the herd ran to the steep rocks, and fell into the sea; they were about 2,000, and they were drowned in the water.

Suffering Woman

13 Isaiah 42:14-15
14I have for a long time held my peace; I have kept silent, I have been patient like a woman in travail; I have remained speechless and completely confounded.
15I will lay waste mountains and hills, and dry up all their herbs; and I will make the rivers islands, and I will dry up the pools.

42 Mark 5:27-33
27When she heard about Jesus, she came through the dense crowd from behind him, and touched his cloak;
28for she said, If I can only touch his cloak, I will live.
29And immediately, the hemorrhage was dried up; and she felt in her body that she was healed of her disease.
30Jesus instantly knew that some power had gone out of him; so he turned around to the people and said, Who touched my garments?
31His disciples said to him, You see the people pressing against you, yet you say, Who touched me?
32And he was looking around to see who had done this.
33But the woman, frightened and trembling, because she knew what had happened to her, came and fell before him and told him the whole truth.

Eyes Opened

13 Isaiah 42:16
16And I will lead the blind by a way that they do not know; and in the paths that they have not known I will make them walk; I will make darkness light before them, and crooked places straight. These things I have done to them and have not forsaken them.

42 Mark 8:23-25
23And he took the blind man by the hand and brought him outside the town; and he spat on his eyes and put his hands on him and asked him what he saw.
24And he looked and said, I see men walking, like trees.
25Again, he put his hands over his eyes and he was restored and saw everything clearly.

?

13 Isaiah 42:17
17They will be turned back, they will be greatly ashamed, who trust in graven images, who say to molten images, You are our gods.

Peter Rebuked

13 Isaiah 42:18-22
18Hear, deaf. And understand and see, blind.
19Who is blind but my servant? Who is deaf as the messenger that I send? Who is blind as the ruler? Who is blind like Yahvah's servant?
20I gave you counsel, but you did not observe it; I opened your ears, but you did not hear.
21Yahvah is well pleased for his righteousness' sake; he will magnify the law and make it honorable.
22But this is a people robbed and oppressed; all the young men are snared, and they are hidden in prison houses; they have become prey, and there is no one to deliver; and trampled on, and there is no one to restore.

42 Mark 8:31-33
31Then he began to teach them that the son of man would have to suffer a great deal and be rejected by the elders and the high priests and the scribes, and be killed, and rise again on the 3rd day.
32And he spoke that word openly. So Peter took him aside and began to rebuke him.
33But he turned around and looked on his disciples, and he rebuked Simon saying, Get behind me, accuser; for you are not thinking of the things of god, but of men.

Follow Me

13 Isaiah 42:23-43:0
23Who among you will give ear to this? Who will listen to the other counsel?
24Who gave Jacob to be trod under foot and Israel as spoil? Was it not Yahvah, because we have sinned against him? For we would not walk in his ways, nor were we obedient to his law.
25Therefore he has poured on them the fury of his anger and the fierceness of battle; and it has set them on fire all around, yet they did not know it; and it burned them, yet they did not lay it to heart.

42 Mark 8:34-9:0
34And Jesus called the people together with his disciples, and said to them, He who wishes to come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me.
35For whoever wishes to save his life will lose it; and whoever loses his life for my sake, and the sake of my thinking, will save it.
36For how could a man be benefited if he should gain the whole world and lose his life?
37Or, what could a man give in exchange for his life?
38Therefore whoever is ashamed of me and of my words in this sinful and adulterous generation, the son of man will also be ashamed of him when he comes in the glory of his father with his holy angels.
