But the Jerusalem above is free, and she is our mother.

Rejoice greatly, Daughter Zion! Shout in triumph, Daughter Jerusalem! Look, your King is coming to you; He is righteous and victorious, humble and riding on a donkey, on a colt, the foal of a donkey.

At that very moment, she came up and began to thank God and to speak about Him to all who were looking forward to the redemption of Jerusalem.

so that you may nurse and be satisfied from her comforting breast and drink deeply and delight yourselves from her glorious breasts.For this is what the Lord says: I will make peace flow to her like a river, and the wealth of nations like a flood; you will nurse and be carried on her hip and bounced on her lap.

Therefore, the Lord Himself will give you a sign: The virgin will conceive, have a son, and name him Immanuel.

I will shake all the nations so that the treasures of all the nations will come, and I will fill this house with glory,” says the Lord of Hosts.

For a child will be born for us, a son will be given to us, and the government will be on His shoulders. He will be named Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Eternal Father, Prince of Peace.

Listen, daughter, pay attention and consider: forget your people and your father’s house,and the king will desire your beauty. Bow down to him, for he is your lord.

for the Lord will rebuild Zion; He will appear in His glory.He will pay attention to the prayer of the destitute and will not despise their prayer.

“ See, I am going to send My messenger, and he will clear the way before Me. Then the Lord you seek will suddenly come to His temple, the Messenger of the covenant you desire— see, He is coming,” says the Lord of Hosts.

The sons of your oppressors will come and bow down to you; all who reviled you will fall facedown at your feet. They will call you the City of the Lord, Zion of the Holy One of Israel.

The Word became flesh and took up residence among us. We observed His glory, the glory as the One and Only Son from the Father, full of grace and truth.

Then turning to His disciples He said privately,“ The eyes that see the things you see are blessed!For I tell you that many prophets and kings wanted to see the things you see yet didn’t see them; to hear the things you hear yet didn’t hear them.”

Otherwise, He would have had to suffer many times since the foundation of the world. But now He has appeared one time, at the end of the ages, for the removal of sin by the sacrifice of Himself.And just as it is appointed for people to die once— and after this, judgment—so also the Messiah, having been offered once to bear the sins of many, will appear a second time, not to bear sin, but to bring salvation to those who are waiting for Him.

God has chosen what is insignificant and despised in the world— what is viewed as nothing— to bring to nothing what is viewed as something,

He answered,“ Whether or not He’s a sinner, I don’t know. One thing I do know: I was blind, and now I can see!”Then they asked him,“ What did He do to you? How did He open your eyes?”“ I already told you,” he said,“ and you didn’t listen. Why do you want to hear it again? You don’t want to become His disciples too, do you?”They ridiculed him:“ You’re that man’s disciple, but we’re Moses’ disciples.We know that God has spoken to Moses. But this man— we don’t know where He’s from!”“ This is an amazing thing,” the man told them.“ You don’t know where He is from, yet He opened my eyes!We know that God doesn’t listen to sinners, but if anyone is God-fearing and does His will, He listens to him.Throughout history no one has ever heard of someone opening the eyes of a person born blind.If this man were not from God, He wouldn’t be able to do anything.”“ You were born entirely in sin,” they replied,“ and are you trying to teach us?” Then they threw him out.When Jesus heard that they had thrown the man out, He found him and asked,“ Do you believe in the Son of Man?”“ Who is He, Sir, that I may believe in Him?” he asked.Jesus answered,“ You have seen Him; in fact, He is the One speaking with you.”“ I believe, Lord!” he said, and he worshiped Him.

Jesus knew that the Father had given everything into His hands, that He had come from God, and that He was going back to God.

The sacrifice pleasing to God is a broken spirit. God, You will not despise a broken and humbled heart.

The police answered,“ No man ever spoke like this!”Then the Pharisees responded to them:“ Are you fooled too?Have any of the rulers or Pharisees believed in Him?But this crowd, which doesn’t know the law, is accursed!”Nicodemus— the one who came to Him previously, being one of them— said to them,“ Our law doesn’t judge a man before it hears from him and knows what he’s doing, does it?”“ You aren’t from Galilee too, are you?” they replied.“ Investigate and you will see that no prophet arises from Galilee.”

“ And I say to you, anyone who acknowledges Me before men, the Son of Man will also acknowledge him before the angels of God,

No one has ascended into heaven except the One who descended from heaven— the Son of Man.

He also told this parable to some who trusted in themselves that they were righteous and looked down on everyone else:

Then Jesus said,“ Leave her alone. Why are you bothering her? She has done a noble thing for Me.You always have the poor with you, and you can do what is good for them whenever you want, but you do not always have Me.She has done what she could; she has anointed My body in advance for burial.I assure you: Wherever the gospel is proclaimed in the whole world, what this woman has done will also be told in memory of her.”

But we do see Jesus— made lower than the angels for a short time so that by God’s grace He might taste death for everyone— crowned with glory and honor because of His suffering in death.For in bringing many sons to glory, it was entirely appropriate that God— all things exist for Him and through Him— should make the source of their salvation perfect through sufferings.For the One who sanctifies and those who are sanctified all have one Father. That is why Jesus is not ashamed to call them brothers,saying: I will proclaim Your name to My brothers; I will sing hymns to You in the congregation.Again, I will trust in Him. And again, Here I am with the children God gave Me.Now since the children have flesh and blood in common, Jesus also shared in these, so that through His death He might destroy the one holding the power of death— that is, the Devil—

Pay homage to the Son or He will be angry and you will perish in your rebellion, for His anger may ignite at any moment. All those who take refuge in Him are happy.

For we are the circumcision, the ones who serve by the Spirit of God, boast in Christ Jesus, and do not put confidence in the flesh—

And most certainly, the mystery of godliness is great: He was manifested in the flesh, vindicated in the Spirit, seen by angels, preached among the nations, believed on in the world, taken up in glory.

You gave Me no kiss, but she hasn’t stopped kissing My feet since I came in.You didn’t anoint My head with olive oil, but she has anointed My feet with fragrant oil.Therefore I tell you, her many sins have been forgiven; that’s why she loved much. But the one who is forgiven little, loves little.”Then He said to her,“ Your sins are forgiven.”

Oh, that he would kiss me with the kisses of his mouth! For your love is more delightful than wine.

For whoever is ashamed of Me and My words, the Son of Man will be ashamed of him when He comes in His glory and that of the Father and the holy angels.

But everything that was a gain to me, I have considered to be a loss because of Christ.More than that, I also consider everything to be a loss in view of the surpassing value of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord. Because of Him I have suffered the loss of all things and consider them filth, so that I may gain Christ

But as for me, I will never boast about anything except the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ. The world has been crucified to me through the cross, and I to the world.

I came from the Father and have come into the world. Again, I am leaving the world and going to the Father.”

Jesus said to them,“ If God were your Father, you would love Me, because I came from God and I am here. For I didn’t come on My own, but He sent Me.

“ But your eyes are blessed because they do see, and your ears because they do hear!For I assure you: Many prophets and righteous people longed to see the things you see yet didn’t see them; to hear the things you hear yet didn’t hear them.

Whoever listens to you listens to Me. Whoever rejects you rejects Me. And whoever rejects Me rejects the One who sent Me.”

And a poor widow came and dropped in two tiny coins worth very little.Summoning His disciples, He said to them,“ I assure you: This poor widow has put in more than all those giving to the temple treasury.For they all gave out of their surplus, but she out of her poverty has put in everything she possessed— all she had to live on.”

It had been revealed to him by the Holy Spirit that he would not see death before he saw the Lord’s Messiah.Guided by the Spirit, he entered the temple complex. When the parents brought in the child Jesus to perform for Him what was customary under the law,Simeon took Him up in his arms, praised God, and said:Now, Master, You can dismiss Your slave in peace, as You promised.For my eyes have seen Your salvation.You have prepared it in the presence of all peoples—a light for revelation to the Gentiles and glory to Your people Israel.
