Luke 9:32-56

32Now Peter and those with him were overcome with sleep. But when they awakened, they saw Yeshua’s glory and the two men standing with Him.

33And as they were leaving Yeshua, Peter said to Him, “Master, it’s good for us to be here. Let’s make three sukkot: one for You, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah”—not knowing what he was saying.

34While he was yet saying these things, a cloud came and overshadowed them; and they were afraid as they entered the cloud.

35Then a voice came out of the cloud, saying, “This is My Son, the One I have chosen. Listen to Him!”

36And after the voice happened, Yeshua was found alone. They kept quiet and told no one in those days any of the things they had seen.

37On the next day as they came down from the mountain, a large crowd met Yeshua.

38Suddenly a man from the crowd shouted out loudly, saying, “Teacher, I’m begging You to look at my son, for he’s my only child!

39You see, a spirit takes hold of him, and he immediately screams. It throws him into convulsions with frothing. It hardly ever leaves him—it’s crushing him!

40I begged Your disciples to drive it out, but they couldn’t.”

41Then answering, Yeshua said, “O faithless and twisted generation, how long shall I be with you and put up with you? Bring your son here.”

42And while the boy was still approaching Yeshua, the demon knocked him down to the ground and threw him into convulsions. But Yeshua rebuked the unclean spirit, healed the boy, and restored him to his father.

43And all were amazed at the mighty power of God. But as everyone was marveling at all He was doing, He said to His disciples,

44“Put these words into your ears: the Son of Man is about to be delivered into the hands of men.”

45But they did not understand this statement; it was yet concealed from them so they could not grasp it. And they were afraid to ask Him about this statement.

46Now a dispute began between the disciples as to who might be the greatest among them.

47But Yeshua, knowing the reasoning of their heart, took a child and set him by His side.

48He said to them, “Whoever welcomes this child in My name, welcomes Me. And whoever welcomes Me, welcomes the One who sent Me. The one who is the least among all of you is the one who is great.”

49John replied, “Master, we saw someone driving out demons in Your name, and we tried to stop him because he doesn’t follow along with us.”

50Yeshua said to him, “Do not stop him, for he who is not against you is for you.”

51When the days were approaching for Him to be taken up, Yeshua was determined to go up to Jerusalem.

52He sent messengers before Him, and they went and entered a Samaritan village to make His arrangements.

53But they did not receive Him, because He was focused on going up to Jerusalem.

54When His disciples Jacob and John saw this, they said, “Master, do You want us to command fire to come down from heaven and consume them?”

55But Yeshua turned and rebuked them.

56Then they moved on to another village.
