| The men who were injured and some killed by Pilate were protesting the use of [[Corban]] funds for public works in Jerusalem and at the Tower of Siloam..

| Verse 28 is similar to verse 11 in [[Matthew 8]]:11 where the children of what Matthew calls the [[Kingdom of Heaven]] are cast out.
|-
| Both these verses should be equated with the verse in ''[[Matthew 21]]'':43 "Therefore say I unto you, The [[kingdom of God]] shall be taken from you, and given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof." In both cases ''cast'' and ''thrust'' are from the same Greek word  ''ekballo''.<Ref>{{1544}}</Ref>
|-
| The fulfillment of this prophecy is seen in numerous verses from the events of casting out the [[money changers]] to [[John 19]]:15  "But they cried out, Away with him, away with him, crucify him. Pilate saith unto them, Shall I crucify your King? The chief priests answered, We have no king but [[Caesar]]."

|Everyone has the choice to live by force through the wages of unrighteousness or seek to live by righteousness through [[faith]] [[hope]] and [[charity]] like '''[[Abraham]]'''. [[Hebrews 11]]:8 "By faith [[Abraham]], when he was [[called out|called to go out]] into a place which he should after receive for an inheritance, obeyed; and he went out, not knowing whither he went. By [[faith]] he sojourned in the land of promise, as in a strange country, dwelling in tabernacles with Isaac and Jacob, the heirs with him of the same promise:"

== Except ye repent ==

[1] There were present at that season some that told him of the Galilaeans, whose blood Pilate had mingled with their sacrifices.

[2] And Jesus answering said unto them, Suppose ye that these Galilaeans were sinners above all the Galilaeans, because they suffered such things?

[3] I tell you, Nay: but, except ye [[repent]]<Ref name="repentn">{{repentn}}</Ref>, ye shall all likewise perish.

[4] Or those eighteen, upon whom the tower in Siloam fell, and slew them, think ye that they were sinners above all men that dwelt in Jerusalem?

[5] I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent<Ref name="repentn">{{repentn}}</Ref>, ye shall all likewise perish.

== Fruitless fig tree ==

[6] He spake also this parable; A certain man had a fig tree planted in his vineyard; and he came and sought fruit thereon, and found none.

[7] Then said he unto the dresser of his vineyard, Behold, these three years I come seeking fruit on this fig tree, and find none: cut it down; why cumbereth it the ground?

[8] And he answering said unto him, Lord, let it alone this year also, till I shall dig about it, and dung it:

[9] And if it bear fruit, well: and if not, then after that thou shalt cut it down.

== Teaching in synagogues ==

[10] And he was teaching in one of the [[synagogue|synagogues]] on the [[Sabbath|sabbath]].

=== Woman made straight ===

[11] And, behold, there was a woman which had a spirit of infirmity eighteen years, and was bowed together, and could in no wise lift up herself.

[12] And when Jesus saw her, he called her to him, and said unto her, Woman, thou art loosed from thine infirmity.

[13] And he laid his hands on her: and immediately she was made straight, and glorified God.

== ruler of the synagogue ==

[14] And the ruler of the synagogue answered with indignation, because that Jesus had healed on the sabbath day, and said unto the people, There are six days in which men ought to work: in them therefore come and be healed, and not on the sabbath day.

[15] The Lord then answered him, and said, <span style="color:red">'''Thou [[hypocrite]], doth not each one of you on the sabbath loose his ox or his ass from the stall, and lead him away to watering?

[16] <span style="color:red">'''And ought not this woman, being a daughter of Abraham, whom Satan hath bound, lo, these eighteen years, be loosed from this bond on the sabbath day?

[17] And when he had said these things, all his adversaries were ashamed<Ref name="shamed">{{shamed}}</Ref>: and all the people rejoiced for all the glorious things that were done by him.

=== The Mustard Seed and Heaven ===

[18] Then said he, <span style="color:red">'''Unto what is the [[kingdom of God]] like? and whereunto shall I resemble it?

[19] It is like a grain of mustard seed<Ref name="kingdomlike">{{kingdomlike}}</Ref>, which a man took, and cast into his garden; and it grew, and waxed a great tree; and the fowls of the air lodged in the branches of it.

=== The good Leaven ===

[20] And again he said, <span style="color:red">'''Whereunto shall I liken the [[kingdom of God]]?'''</span>'''</span>

[21] It is like leaven<Ref name="kingdomlike">{{kingdomlike}}</Ref>, which a woman took and hid in three measures of meal, till the whole was '''[[leaven]]'''ed.'''</span>

[22] And he went through the cities and villages, teaching, and journeying toward Jerusalem.

== Few saved ==

[23] Then said one unto him, Lord, are there few that be [[saved]]? And he said unto them,

[24] <span style="color:red">'''Strive<Ref name="seekstrive">{{seekstrive}}</Ref> to enter in at the strait gate: for many, I say unto you, will seek to enter in, and shall not be able.

[25] <span style="color:red">'''When once the master of the house is risen up, and hath shut to the door, and ye begin to stand without, and to knock at the door<Ref name="doorw">{{doorw}}</Ref>, saying, Lord, Lord, open unto us; and he shall answer and say unto you, I know you not whence ye are<Ref name="doethv">{{doethv}}</Ref><Ref name="lord2">{{lord2}}</Ref>:

[26] <span style="color:red">'''Then shall ye begin to say, We have eaten and drunk in thy presence, and thou hast taught in our streets.'''</span>

[27] <span style="color:red">'''But he shall say, I tell you, I know you not whence ye are; depart from me<Ref name="fromme">{{fromme}}</Ref>, all ye workers of [[iniquity]].'''</span>

[28] <span style="color:red">'''There shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth<Ref name="gnash">{{gnash}}</Ref>, when ye shall see Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, and all the prophets, in the kingdom of God,<Ref name="kingdomlike">{{kingdomlike}}</Ref> and you yourselves thrust out.

[29] And they shall come from the east, and from the west, and from the north, and from the south, and shall sit down in the kingdom of God.<Ref name="kingdomlike">{{kingdomlike}}</Ref>

[30] And, behold, there are last which shall be first, and there are first which shall be last.<Ref name="firstlast">{{firstlast}}</Ref> 


[31] The same day there came certain of the Pharisees, saying unto him, Get thee out, and depart hence: for Herod will kill thee.

[32] And he said unto them, Go ye, and tell that fox, Behold, I cast out devils, and I do cures to day and to morrow, and the third day I shall be perfected.

[33] Nevertheless I must walk to day, and to morrow, and the day following: for it cannot be that a prophet perish out of Jerusalem.

[34] O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, which killest the prophets, and stonest them that are sent unto thee; how often would I have gathered thy children together, as a hen doth gather her brood under her wings, and ye would not!

[35] Behold, your house is left unto you desolate: and verily I say unto you, Ye shall not see me, until the time come when ye shall say, Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord.
