Bible Stories - John 21:1 - 14:Jesus and the Miraculous Catch of Fish 
 
Afterwards Jesus appeared again to his disciples, by the Sea of Galilee. It happened this way: Simon Peter, Thomas (also known as Didymus), Nathanael from Cana in Galilee, the sons of Zebedee, and two other disciples were together. ‘I’m going out to fish,’ Simon Peter told them, and they said, ‘We’ll go with you.’ So they went out and got into the boat, but that night they caught nothing. 
 
Early in the morning, Jesus stood on the shore, but the disciples did not realise that it was Jesus. 
 
He called out to them, ‘Friends, haven’t you any fish?’ 
 
‘No,’ they answered. 
 
He said, ‘Throw your net on the right side of the boat and you will find some.’ When they did, they were unable to haul the net in because of the large number of fish. 
 
Then the disciple whom Jesus loved said to Peter, ‘It is the Lord!’ As soon as Simon Peter heard him say, ‘It is the Lord,’ he wrapped his outer garment round him (for he had taken it off) and jumped into the water. The other disciples followed in the boat, towing the net full of fish, for they were not far from shore, about a hundred metres. When they landed, they saw a fire of burning coals there with fish on it, and some bread. 
 
Jesus said to them, ‘Bring some of the fish you have just caught.’ So Simon Peter climbed back into the boat and dragged the net ashore. It was full of large fish, 153, but even with so many the net was not torn. Jesus said to them, ‘Come and have breakfast.’ None of the disciples dared ask him, ‘Who are you?’ They knew it was the Lord. Jesus came, took the bread and gave it to them, and did the same with the fish. This was now the third time Jesus appeared to his disciples after he was raised from the dead.

Bible Stories - John 19:1 - 16: Jesus Sentenced To Be Crucified 
 
Then Pilate took Jesus and had him flogged. The soldiers twisted together a crown of thorns and put it on his head. They clothed him in a purple robe and went up to him again and again, saying, ‘Hail, king of the Jews!’ And they slapped him in the face. 
 
Once more Pilate came out and said to the Jews gathered there, ‘Look, I am bringing him out to you to let you know that I find no basis for a charge against him.’ When Jesus came out wearing the crown of thorns and the purple robe, Pilate said to them, ‘Here is the man!’ 
 
As soon as the chief priests and their officials saw him, they shouted, ‘Crucify! Crucify!’ 
 
But Pilate answered, ‘You take him and crucify him. As for me, I find no basis for a charge against him.’ 
 
The Jewish leaders insisted, ‘We have a law, and according to that law he must die, because he claimed to be the Son of God.’ 
 
When Pilate heard this, he was even more afraid, and he went back inside the palace. ‘Where do you come from?’ he asked Jesus, but Jesus gave him no answer. ‘Do you refuse to speak to me?’ Pilate said. ‘Don’t you realise I have power either to free you or to crucify you?’ 
 
Jesus answered, ‘You would have no power over me if it were not given to you from above. Therefore the one who handed me over to you is guilty of a greater sin.’ 
 
From then on, Pilate tried to set Jesus free, but the Jewish leaders kept shouting, ‘If you let this man go, you are no friend of Caesar. Anyone who claims to be a king opposes Caesar.’ 
 
When Pilate heard this, he brought Jesus out and sat down on the judge’s seat at a place known as the Stone Pavement (which in Aramaic is Gabbatha). It was the day of Preparation of the Passover; it was about noon. 
 
‘Here is your king,’ Pilate said to the Jews. 
 
But they shouted, ‘Take him away! Take him away! Crucify him!’ 
 
‘Shall I crucify your king?’ Pilate asked. 
 
‘We have no king but Caesar,’ the chief priests answered. 
 
Finally Pilate handed him over to them to be crucified.

Bible Stories - John 18:15 - 27: Peter's Denials 
 
Simon Peter and another disciple were following Jesus. Because this disciple was known to the high priest, he went with Jesus into the high priest’s courtyard, but Peter had to wait outside at the door. The other disciple, who was known to the high priest, came back, spoke to the servant-girl on duty there and brought Peter in. 
 
‘You aren’t one of this man’s disciples too, are you?’ she asked Peter. 
 
He replied, ‘I am not.’ 
 
It was cold, and the servants and officials stood round a fire they had made to keep warm. Peter also was standing with them, warming himself. 
 
The high priest questions Jesus 
Meanwhile, the high priest questioned Jesus about his disciples and his teaching. 
 
‘I have spoken openly to the world,’ Jesus replied. ‘I always taught in synagogues or at the temple, where all the Jews come together. I said nothing in secret. Why question me? Ask those who heard me. Surely they know what I said.’ 
 
When Jesus said this, one of the officials near by slapped him in the face. ‘Is this the way you answer the high priest?’ he demanded. 
 
‘If I said something wrong,’ Jesus replied, ‘testify as to what is wrong. But if I spoke the truth, why did you strike me?’ Then Annas sent him bound to Caiaphas the high priest. 
 
Peter’s second and third denials 
Meanwhile, Simon Peter was still standing there warming himself. So they asked him, ‘You aren’t one of his disciples too, are you?’ 
 
He denied it, saying, ‘I am not.’ 
 
One of the high priest’s servants, a relative of the man whose ear Peter had cut off, challenged him, ‘Didn’t I see you with him in the garden?’ Again Peter denied it, and at that moment a cock began to crow.

Then the Jewish leaders took Jesus from Caiaphas to the palace of the Roman governor. By now it was early morning, and to avoid ceremonial uncleanness they did not enter the palace, because they wanted to be able to eat the Passover. So Pilate came out to them and asked, ‘What charges are you bringing against this man?’ 
 
‘If he were not a criminal,’ they replied, ‘we would not have handed him over to you.’ 
 
Pilate said, ‘Take him yourselves and judge him by your own law.’ 
 
‘But we have no right to execute anyone,’ they objected. This took place to fulfil what Jesus had said about the kind of death he was going to die. 
 
Pilate then went back inside the palace, summoned Jesus and asked him, ‘Are you the king of the Jews?’ 
 
‘Is that your own idea,’ Jesus asked, ‘or did others talk to you about me?’ 
 
‘Am I a Jew?’ Pilate replied. ‘Your own people and chief priests handed you over to me. What is it you have done?’ 
 
Jesus said, ‘My kingdom is not of this world. If it were, my servants would fight to prevent my arrest by the Jewish leaders. But now my kingdom is from another place.’ 
 
‘You are a king, then!’ said Pilate. 
 
Jesus answered, ‘You say that I am a king. In fact, the reason I was born and came into the world is to testify to the truth. Everyone on the side of truth listens to me.’ 
 
‘What is truth?’ retorted Pilate. With this he went out again to the Jews gathered there and said, ‘I find no basis for a charge against him. But it is your custom for me to release to you one prisoner at the time of the Passover. Do you want me to release “the king of the Jews”?’ 
 
They shouted back, ‘No, not him! Give us Barabbas!’ Now Barabbas had taken part in an uprising.

Bible Stories - John 18:1 - 14: Jesus Arrested and Taken To Annas 
 
When he had finished praying, Jesus left with his disciples and crossed the Kidron Valley. On the other side there was a garden, and he and his disciples went into it. 
 
Now Judas, who betrayed him, knew the place, because Jesus had often met there with his disciples. So Judas came to the garden, guiding a detachment of soldiers and some officials from the chief priests and the Pharisees. They were carrying torches, lanterns and weapons. 
 
Jesus, knowing all that was going to happen to him, went out and asked them, ‘Who is it you want?’ 
 
‘Jesus of Nazareth,’ they replied. 
 
‘I am he,’ Jesus said. (And Judas the traitor was standing there with them.) When Jesus said, ‘I am he,’ they drew back and fell to the ground. 
 
Again he asked them, ‘Who is it you want?’ 
 
‘Jesus of Nazareth,’ they said. 
 
Jesus answered, ‘I told you that I am he. If you are looking for me, then let these men go.’ This happened so that the words he had spoken would be fulfilled: ‘I have not lost one of those you gave me.’ 
 
Then Simon Peter, who had a sword, drew it and struck the high priest’s servant, cutting off his right ear. (The servant’s name was Malchus.) 
 
Jesus commanded Peter, ‘Put your sword away! Shall I not drink the cup the Father has given me?’ 
 
Then the detachment of soldiers with its commander and the Jewish officials arrested Jesus. They bound him and brought him first to Annas, who was the father-in-law of Caiaphas, the high priest that year. Caiaphas was the one who had advised the Jewish leaders that it would be good if one man died for the people.

Bible Stories - John 13:18 - 38: Jesus Predicts His Betrayal 
 
‘I am not referring to all of you; I know those I have chosen. But this is to fulfil this passage of Scripture: “He who shared my bread has turned against me.” 
 
‘I am telling you now before it happens, so that when it does happen you will believe that I am who I am. Very truly I tell you, whoever accepts anyone I send accepts me; and whoever accepts me accepts the one who sent me.’ 
 
After he had said this, Jesus was troubled in spirit and testified, ‘Very truly I tell you, one of you is going to betray me.’ 
 
His disciples stared at one another, at a loss to know which of them he meant. One of them, the disciple whom Jesus loved, was reclining next to him. Simon Peter motioned to this disciple and said, ‘Ask him which one he means.’ 
 
Leaning back against Jesus, he asked him, ‘Lord, who is it?’ 
 
Jesus answered, ‘It is the one to whom I will give this piece of bread when I have dipped it in the dish.’ Then, dipping the piece of bread, he gave it to Judas, the son of Simon Iscariot. As soon as Judas took the bread, Satan entered into him. 
 
So Jesus told him, ‘What you are about to do, do quickly.’ But no one at the meal understood why Jesus said this to him. Since Judas had charge of the money, some thought Jesus was telling him to buy what was needed for the festival, or to give something to the poor. As soon as Judas had taken the bread, he went out. And it was night. 
 
Jesus predicts Peter’s denial 
When he was gone, Jesus said, ‘Now the Son of Man is glorified and God is glorified in him. If God is glorified in him, God will glorify the Son in himself, and will glorify him at once. 
 
‘My children, I will be with you only a little longer. You will look for me, and just as I told the Jews, so I tell you now: where I am going, you cannot come. 
 
‘A new command I give you: love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.’ 
 
Simon Peter asked him, ‘Lord, where are you going?’ 
 
Jesus replied, ‘Where I am going, you cannot follow now, but you will follow later.’ 
 
Peter asked, ‘Lord, why can’t I follow you now? I will lay down my life for you.’ 
 
Then Jesus answered, ‘Will you really lay down your life for me? Very truly I tell you, before the cock crows, you will disown me three times!

Bible Stories - John 13:1 - 17: Jesus Washes His Disciples' Feet 
 
It was just before the Passover Festival. Jesus knew that the hour had come for him to leave this world and go to the Father. Having loved his own who were in the world, he loved them to the end. 
 
The evening meal was in progress, and the devil had already prompted Judas, the son of Simon Iscariot, to betray Jesus. Jesus knew that the Father had put all things under his power, and that he had come from God and was returning to God; so he got up from the meal, took off his outer clothing, and wrapped a towel round his waist. After that, he poured water into a basin and began to wash his disciples’ feet, drying them with the towel that was wrapped round him. 
 
He came to Simon Peter, who said to him, ‘Lord, are you going to wash my feet?’ 
 
Jesus replied, ‘You do not realise now what I am doing, but later you will understand.’ 
 
‘No,’ said Peter, ‘you shall never wash my feet.’ 
 
Jesus answered, ‘Unless I wash you, you have no part with me.’ 
 
‘Then, Lord,’ Simon Peter replied, ‘not just my feet but my hands and my head as well!’ 
 
Jesus answered, ‘Those who have had a bath need only to wash their feet; their whole body is clean. And you are clean, though not every one of you.’ For he knew who was going to betray him, and that was why he said not every one was clean. 
 
When he had finished washing their feet, he put on his clothes and returned to his place. ‘Do you understand what I have done for you?’ he asked them. ‘You call me “Teacher” and “Lord”, and rightly so, for that is what I am. Now that I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also should wash one another’s feet. I have set you an example that you should do as I have done for you. Very truly I tell you, no servant is greater than his master, nor is a messenger greater than the one who sent him. Now that you know these things, you will be blessed if you do them.

Bible Stories - Joshua 10:28 - 11:23: Southern Cities Conquered And Northern Kings Defeated 
 
That day Joshua took Makkedah. He put the city and its king to the sword and totally destroyed everyone in it. He left no survivors. And he did to the king of Makkedah as he had done to the king of Jericho. 
 
Then Joshua and all Israel with him moved on from Makkedah to Libnah and attacked it. The Lord also gave that city and its king into Israel’s hand. The city and everyone in it Joshua put to the sword. He left no survivors there. And he did to its king as he had done to the king of Jericho. 
 
Then Joshua and all Israel with him moved on from Libnah to Lachish; he took up positions against it and attacked it. The Lord gave Lachish into Israel’s hands, and Joshua took it on the second day. The city and everyone in it he put to the sword, just as he had done to Libnah. Meanwhile, Horam king of Gezer had come up to help Lachish, but Joshua defeated him and his army – until no survivors were left. 
 
Then Joshua and all Israel with him moved on from Lachish to Eglon; they took up positions against it and attacked it. They captured it that same day and put it to the sword and totally destroyed everyone in it, just as they had done to Lachish. 
 
Then Joshua and all Israel with him went up from Eglon to Hebron and attacked it. They took the city and put it to the sword, together with its king, its villages and everyone in it. They left no survivors. Just as at Eglon, they totally destroyed it and everyone in it. 
 
Then Joshua and all Israel with him turned round and attacked Debir. They took the city, its king and its villages, and put them to the sword. Everyone in it they totally destroyed. They left no survivors. They did to Debir and its king as they had done to Libnah and its king and to Hebron. 
 
So Joshua subdued the whole region, including the hill country, the Negev, the western foothills and the mountain slopes, together with all their kings. He left no survivors. He totally destroyed all who breathed, just as the Lord, the God of Israel, had commanded. Joshua subdued them from Kadesh Barnea to Gaza and from the whole region of Goshen to Gibeon. All these kings and their lands Joshua conquered in one campaign, because the Lord, the God of Israel, fought for Israel. 
 
Then Joshua returned with all Israel to the camp at Gilgal. 
 
When Jabin king of Hazor heard of this, he sent word to Jobab king of Madon, to the kings of Shimron and Akshaph, and to the northern kings who were in the mountains, in the Arabah south of Kinnereth, in the western foothills and in Naphoth Dor on the west; to the Canaanites in the east and west; to the Amorites, Hittites, Perizzites and Jebusites in the hill country; and to the Hivites below Hermon in the region of Mizpah. They came out with all their troops and a large number of horses and chariots – a huge army, as numerous as the sand on the seashore. All these kings joined forces and made camp together at the Waters of Merom to fight against Israel. 
 
The Lord said to Joshua, ‘Do not be afraid of them, because by this time tomorrow I will hand all of them, slain, over to Israel. You are to hamstring their horses and burn their chariots.’ 
 
So Joshua and his whole army came against them suddenly at the Waters of Merom and attacked them, and the Lord gave them into the hand of Israel. They defeated them and pursued them all the way to Greater Sidon, to Misrephoth Maim, and to the Valley of Mizpah on the east, until no survivors were left. Joshua did to them as the Lord had directed: he hamstrung their horses and burned their chariots. 
 
At that time Joshua turned back and captured Hazor and put its king to the sword. (Hazor had been the head of all these kingdoms.) Everyone in it they put to the sword. They totally destroyed them, not sparing anyone that breathed, and he burned Hazor itself. 
 
Joshua took all these royal cities and their kings and put them to the sword. He totally destroyed them, as Moses the servant of the Lord had commanded. Yet Israel did not burn any of the cities built on their mounds – except Hazor, which Joshua burned. The Israelites carried off for themselves all the plunder and livestock of these cities, but all the people they put to the sword until they completely destroyed them, not sparing anyone that breathed. As the Lord commanded his servant Moses, so Moses commanded Joshua, and Joshua did it; he left nothing undone of all that the Lord commanded Moses.

Bible Stories - Joshua 10:1 - 27: The Sun Stands Still And The Five Amorite Kings Killed 
 
Now Adoni-Zedek king of Jerusalem heard that Joshua had taken Ai and totally destroyed it, doing to Ai and its king as he had done to Jericho and its king, and that the people of Gibeon had made a treaty of peace with Israel and had become their allies. He and his people were very much alarmed at this, because Gibeon was an important city, like one of the royal cities; it was larger than Ai, and all its men were good fighters. So Adoni-Zedek king of Jerusalem appealed to Hoham king of Hebron, Piram king of Jarmuth, Japhia king of Lachish and Debir king of Eglon. ‘Come up and help me attack Gibeon,’ he said, ‘because it has made peace with Joshua and the Israelites.’ 
 
Then the five kings of the Amorites – the kings of Jerusalem, Hebron, Jarmuth, Lachish and Eglon – joined forces. They moved up with all their troops and took up positions against Gibeon and attacked it. 
 
The Gibeonites then sent word to Joshua in the camp at Gilgal: ‘Do not abandon your servants. Come up to us quickly and save us! Help us, because all the Amorite kings from the hill country have joined forces against us.’ 
 
So Joshua marched up from Gilgal with his entire army, including all the best fighting men. The Lord said to Joshua, ‘Do not be afraid of them; I have given them into your hand. Not one of them will be able to withstand you.’ 
 
After an all-night march from Gilgal, Joshua took them by surprise. The Lord threw them into confusion before Israel, so Joshua and the Israelites defeated them completely at Gibeon. Israel pursued them along the road going up to Beth Horon and cut them down all the way to Azekah and Makkedah. As they fled before Israel on the road down from Beth Horon to Azekah, the Lord hurled large hailstones down on them, and more of them died from the hail than were killed by the swords of the Israelites. 
 
On the day the Lord gave the Amorites over to Israel, Joshua said to the Lord in the presence of Israel: 
 
‘Sun, stand still over Gibeon, 
 and you, moon, over the Valley of Aijalon.’ 
So the sun stood still, 
 and the moon stopped, 
 till the nation avenged itself on its enemies, 
 
as it is written in the Book of Jashar. 
 
The sun stopped in the middle of the sky and delayed going down about a full day. There has never been a day like it before or since, a day when the Lord listened to a human being. Surely the Lord was fighting for Israel! 
 
Then Joshua returned with all Israel to the camp at Gilgal. 
 
Five Amorite kings killed 
Now the five kings had fled and hidden in the cave at Makkedah. When Joshua was told that the five kings had been found hiding in the cave at Makkedah, he said, ‘Roll large rocks up to the mouth of the cave, and post some men there to guard it. But don’t stop; pursue your enemies! Attack them from the rear and don’t let them reach their cities, for the Lord your God has given them into your hand.’ 
 
So Joshua and the Israelites defeated them completely, but a few survivors managed to reach their fortified cities. The whole army then returned safely to Joshua in the camp at Makkedah, and no one uttered a word against the Israelites. 
 
Joshua said, ‘Open the mouth of the cave and bring those five kings out to me.’ So they brought the five kings out of the cave – the kings of Jerusalem, Hebron, Jarmuth, Lachish and Eglon. When they had brought these kings to Joshua, he summoned all the men of Israel and said to the army commanders who had come with him, ‘Come here and put your feet on the necks of these kings.’ So they came forward and placed their feet on their necks. 
 
Joshua said to them, ‘Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged. Be strong and courageous. This is what the Lord will do to all the enemies you are going to fight.’ Then Joshua put the kings to death and exposed their bodies on five poles, and they were left hanging on the poles until evening. 
 
At sunset Joshua gave the order and they took them down from the poles and threw them into the cave where they had been hiding. At the mouth of the cave they placed large rocks, which are there to this day.

Bible Stories - Joshua 10:1 - 27: The Sun Stands Still And The Five Amorite Kings Killed

Now Adoni-Zedek king of Jerusalem heard that Joshua had taken Ai and totally destroyed it, doing to Ai and its king as he had done to Jericho and its king, and that the people of Gibeon had made a treaty of peace with Israel and had become their allies. He and his people were very much alarmed at this, because Gibeon was an important city, like one of the royal cities; it was larger than Ai, and all its men were good fighters. So Adoni-Zedek king of Jerusalem appealed to Hoham king of Hebron, Piram king of Jarmuth, Japhia king of Lachish and Debir king of Eglon. ‘Come up and help me attack Gibeon,’ he said, ‘because it has made peace with Joshua and the Israelites.’

Then the five kings of the Amorites – the kings of Jerusalem, Hebron, Jarmuth, Lachish and Eglon – joined forces. They moved up with all their troops and took up positions against Gibeon and attacked it.

The Gibeonites then sent word

Bible Stories - Luke 2:21 - 40: Jesus Presented At The Temple 
 
On the eighth day, when it was time to circumcise the child, he was named Jesus, the name the angel had given him before he was conceived. 
 
Jesus presented in the temple 
When the time came for the purification rites required by the Law of Moses, Joseph and Mary took him to Jerusalem to present him to the Lord (as it is written in the Law of the Lord, ‘Every firstborn male is to be consecrated to the Lord’), and to offer a sacrifice in keeping with what is said in the Law of the Lord: ‘a pair of doves or two young pigeons’. 
 
Now there was a man in Jerusalem called Simeon, who was righteous and devout. He was waiting for the consolation of Israel, and the Holy Spirit was on him. It had been revealed to him by the Holy Spirit that he would not die before he had seen the Lord’s Messiah. Moved by the Spirit, he went into the temple courts. When the parents brought in the child Jesus to do for him what the custom of the Law required, Simeon took him in his arms and praised God, saying: 
 
‘Sovereign Lord, as you have promised, 
 you may now dismiss your servant in peace. 
For my eyes have seen your salvation, 
 which you have prepared in the sight of all nations: 
a light for revelation to the Gentiles, 
 and the glory of your people Israel.’ 
 
The child’s father and mother marvelled at what was said about him. Then Simeon blessed them and said to Mary, his mother: ‘This child is destined to cause the falling and rising of many in Israel, and to be a sign that will be spoken against, so that the thoughts of many hearts will be revealed. And a sword will pierce your own soul too.’ 
 
There was also a prophet, Anna, the daughter of Penuel, of the tribe of Asher. She was very old; she had lived with her husband seven years after her marriage, and then was a widow until she was eighty-four. She never left the temple but worshipped night and day, fasting and praying. Coming up to them at that very moment, she gave thanks to God and spoke about the child to all who were looking forward to the redemption of Jerusalem. 
 
When Joseph and Mary had done everything required by the Law of the Lord, they returned to Galilee to their own town of Nazareth. And the child grew and became strong; he was filled with wisdom, and the grace of God was on him. 
 
The boy Jesus at the temple 
Every year Jesus’ parents went to Jerusalem for the Festival of the Passover. When he was twelve years old, they went up to the festival, according to the custom. After the festival was over, while his parents were returning home, the boy Jesus stayed behind in Jerusalem, but they were unaware of it. Thinking he was in their company, they travelled on for a day. Then they began looking for him among their relatives and friends. When they did not find him, they went back to Jerusalem to look for him. After three days they found him in the temple courts, sitting among the teachers, listening to them and asking them questions. Everyone who heard him was amazed at his understanding and his answers. When his parents saw him, they were astonished. His mother said to him, ‘Son, why have you treated us like this? Your father and I have been anxiously searching for you.’ 
 
‘Why were you searching for me?’ he asked. ‘Didn’t you know I had to be in my Father’s house?’ But they did not understand what he was saying to them. 
 
Then he went down to Nazareth with them and was obedient to them. But his mother treasured all these things in her heart. And Jesus grew in wisdom and stature, and in favour with God and man.

Bible Stories - Luke 2:1 - 20: Shepherds And Angels At The Birth Of Jesus 
 
In those days Caesar Augustus issued a decree that a census should be taken of the entire Roman world. (This was the first census that took place while Quirinius was governor of Syria.) And everyone went to their own town to register. 
 
So Joseph also went up from the town of Nazareth in Galilee to Judea, to Bethlehem the town of David, because he belonged to the house and line of David. He went there to register with Mary, who was pledged to be married to him and was expecting a child. While they were there, the time came for the baby to be born, and she gave birth to her firstborn, a son. She wrapped him in cloths and placed him in a manger, because there was no guest room available for them. 
 
And there were shepherds living out in the fields near by, keeping watch over their flocks at night. An angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified. But the angel said to them, ‘Do not be afraid. I bring you good news that will cause great joy for all the people. Today in the town of David a Saviour has been born to you; he is the Messiah, the Lord. This will be a sign to you: you will find a baby wrapped in cloths and lying in a manger.’ 
 
Suddenly a great company of the heavenly host appeared with the angel, praising God and saying, 
 
‘Glory to God in the highest heaven, 
 and on earth peace to those on whom his favour rests.’ 
 
When the angels had left them and gone into heaven, the shepherds said to one another, ‘Let’s go to Bethlehem and see this thing that has happened, which the Lord has told us about.’ 
 
So they hurried off and found Mary and Joseph, and the baby, who was lying in the manger. When they had seen him, they spread the word concerning what had been told them about this child, and all who heard it were amazed at what the shepherds said to them. But Mary treasured up all these things and pondered them in her heart. The shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things they had heard and seen, which were just as they had been told.

Bible Stories - Matthew 2:1 - 12: The Visit Of The Magi 
 
After Jesus was born in Bethlehem in Judea, during the time of King Herod, Magi from the east came to Jerusalem and asked, ‘Where is the one who has been born king of the Jews? We saw his star when it rose and have come to worship him.’ 
 
When King Herod heard this he was disturbed, and all Jerusalem with him. When he had called together all the people’s chief priests and teachers of the law, he asked them where the Messiah was to be born. ‘In Bethlehem in Judea,’ they replied, ‘for this is what the prophet has written: 
 
‘“But you, Bethlehem, in the land of Judah, 
 are by no means least among the rulers of Judah; 
for out of you will come a ruler 
 who will shepherd my people Israel.”’ 
 
Then Herod called the Magi secretly and found out from them the exact time the star had appeared. He sent them to Bethlehem and said, ‘Go and search carefully for the child. As soon as you find him, report to me, so that I too may go and worship him.’ 
 
After they had heard the king, they went on their way, and the star they had seen when it rose went ahead of them until it stopped over the place where the child was. When they saw the star, they were overjoyed. On coming to the house, they saw the child with his mother Mary, and they bowed down and worshipped him. Then they opened their treasures and presented him with gifts of gold, frankincense and myrrh. And having been warned in a dream not to go back to Herod, they returned to their country by another route.

This is how the birth of Jesus the Messiah came about: his mother Mary was pledged to be married to Joseph, but before they came together, she was found to be pregnant through the Holy Spirit. Because Joseph her husband was faithful to the law, and yet did not want to expose her to public disgrace, he had in mind to divorce her quietly. 
 
But after he had considered this, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream and said, ‘Joseph son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary home as your wife, because what is conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit. She will give birth to a son, and you are to give him the name Jesus, because he will save his people from their sins.’ 
 
All this took place to fulfil what the Lord had said through the prophet: ‘The virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and they will call him Immanuel’ (which means ‘God with us’). 
 
When Joseph woke up, he did what the angel of the Lord had commanded him and took Mary home as his wife. But he did not consummate their marriage until she gave birth to a son. And he gave him the name Jesus.

Bible Stories - Luke 1:39 - 56: Mary's Song 
 
At that time Mary got ready and hurried to a town in the hill country of Judea, where she entered Zechariah’s home and greeted Elizabeth. When Elizabeth heard Mary’s greeting, the baby leaped in her womb, and Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit. In a loud voice she exclaimed: ‘Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the child you will bear! But why am I so favoured, that the mother of my Lord should come to me? As soon as the sound of your greeting reached my ears, the baby in my womb leaped for joy. Blessed is she who has believed that the Lord would fulfil his promises to her!’ 
 
Mary’s song 
And Mary said: 
 
‘My soul glorifies the Lord 
 and my spirit rejoices in God my Saviour, 
for he has been mindful 
 of the humble state of his servant. 
From now on all generations will call me blessed, 
 for the Mighty One has done great things for me – 
 holy is his name. 
His mercy extends to those who fear him, 
 from generation to generation. 
He has performed mighty deeds with his arm; 
 he has scattered those who are proud in their inmost thoughts. 
He has brought down rulers from their thrones 
 but has lifted up the humble. 
He has filled the hungry with good things 
 but has sent the rich away empty. 
He has helped his servant Israel, 
 remembering to be merciful 
to Abraham and his descendants for ever, 
 just as he promised our ancestors.’ 
 
Mary stayed with Elizabeth for about three months and then returned home. 
 
The birth of John the Baptist 
When it was time for Elizabeth to have her baby, she gave birth to a son. Her neighbours and relatives heard that the Lord had shown her great mercy, and they shared her joy. 
 
On the eighth day they came to circumcise the child, and they were going to name him after his father Zechariah, but his mother spoke up and said, ‘No! He is to be called John.’ 
 
They said to her, ‘There is no one among your relatives who has that name.’ 
 
Then they made signs to his father, to find out what he would like to name the child. He asked for a writing tablet, and to everyone’s astonishment he wrote, ‘His name is John.’ Immediately his mouth was opened and his tongue set free, and he began to speak, praising God. All the neighbours were filled with awe, and throughout the hill country of Judea people were talking about all these things. Everyone who heard this wondered about it, asking, ‘What then is this child going to be?’ For the Lord’s hand was with him. 
 
Zechariah’s song 
His father Zechariah was filled with the Holy Spirit and prophesied: 
 
‘Praise be to the Lord, the God of Israel, 
 because he has come to his people and redeemed them. 
He has raised up a horn of salvation for us 
 in the house of his servant David 
(as he said through his holy prophets of long ago), 
salvation from our enemies 
 and from the hand of all who hate us – 
to show mercy to our ancestors 
 and to remember his holy covenant, 
 the oath he swore to our father Abraham: 
to rescue us from the hand of our enemies, 
 and to enable us to serve him without fear 
 in holiness and righteousness before him all our days. 
 
And you, my child, will be called a prophet of the Most High; 
 for you will go on before the Lord to prepare the way for him, 
to give his people the knowledge of salvation 
 through the forgiveness of their sins, 
because of the tender mercy of our God, 
 by which the rising sun will come to us from heaven 
to shine on those living in darkness 
 and in the shadow of death, 
to guide our feet into the path of peace.’ 
 
And the child grew and became strong in spirit; and he lived in the wilderness until he appeared publicly to Israel.

Bible Stories - Deuteronomy 32: 48 - 34:12: Moses Blesses The Tribes 
 
On that same day the Lord told Moses, ‘Go up into the Abarim Range to Mount Nebo in Moab, opposite Jericho, and view Canaan, the land I am giving the Israelites as their own possession. There on the mountain that you have climbed you will die and be gathered to your people, just as your brother Aaron died on Mount Hor and was gathered to his people. This is because both of you broke faith with me in the presence of the Israelites at the waters of Meribah Kadesh in the Desert of Zin and because you did not uphold my holiness among the Israelites. Therefore, you will see the land only from a distance; you will not enter the land I am giving to the people of Israel.’ 
 
This is the blessing that Moses the man of God pronounced on the Israelites before his death. He said: 
 
‘The Lord came from Sinai 
 and dawned over them from Seir; 
 he shone forth from Mount Paran. 
He came with myriads of holy ones 
 from the south, from his mountain slopes. 
Surely it is you who love the people; 
 all the holy ones are in your hand. 
At your feet they all bow down, 
 and from you receive instruction, 
the law that Moses gave us, 
 the possession of the assembly of Jacob. 
He was king over Jeshurun 
 when the leaders of the people assembled, 
 along with the tribes of Israel. 
 
‘Let Reuben live and not die, 
 nor his people be few.’ 
 
And this he said about Judah: 
 
‘Hear, Lord, the cry of Judah; 
 bring him to his people. 
With his own hands he defends his cause. 
 Oh, be his help against his foes!’ 
 
About Levi he said: 
 
‘Your Thummim and Urim belong 
 to your faithful servant. 
You tested him at Massah; 
 you contended with him at the waters of Meribah. 
He said of his father and mother, 
 “I have no regard for them.” 
He did not recognise his brothers 
 or acknowledge his own children, 
but he watched over your word 
 and guarded your covenant. 
He teaches your precepts to Jacob 
 and your law to Israel. 
He offers incense before you 
 and whole burnt offerings on your altar. 
Bless all his skills, Lord, 
 and be pleased with the work of his hands. 
Strike down those who rise against him, 
 his foes till they rise no more.’ 
 
About Benjamin he said: 
 
‘Let the beloved of the Lord rest secure in him, 
 for he shields him all day long, 
 and the one the Lord loves rests between his shoulders.’ 
 
About Joseph he said: 
 
‘May the Lord bless his land 
 with the precious dew from heaven above 
 and with the deep waters that lie below; 
with the best the sun brings forth 
 and the finest the moon can yield; 
with the choicest gifts of the ancient mountains 
 and the fruitfulness of the everlasting hills; 
with the best gifts of the earth and its fullness 
 and the favour of him who dwelt in the burning bush. 
Let all these rest on the head of Joseph, 
 on the brow of the prince among his brothers. 
In majesty he is like a firstborn bull; 
 his horns are the horns of a wild ox. 
With them he will gore the nations, 
 even those at the ends of the earth. 
Such are the ten thousands of Ephraim; 
 such are the thousands of Manasseh.’ 
 
About Zebulun he said: 
 
‘Rejoice, Zebulun, in your going out, 
 and you, Issachar, in your tents. 
They will summon peoples to the mountain 
 and there offer the sacrifices of the righteous; 
they will feast on the abundance of the seas, 
 on the treasures hidden in the sand.’ 
 
About Gad he said: 
 
‘Blessed is he who enlarges Gad’s domain! 
 Gad lives there like a lion, 
 tearing at arm or head. 
He chose the best land for himself; 
 the leader’s portion was kept for him. 
When the heads of the people assembled, 
 he carried out the Lord’s righteous will, 
 and his judgments concerning Israel.’ 
 
About Dan he said: 
 
‘Dan is a lion’s cub, 
 springing out of Bashan.’ 
 
About Naphtali he said: 
 
‘Naphtali is abounding with the favour of the Lord 
 and is full of his blessing; 
 he will inherit southward to the lake.’ 
 
About Asher he said: 
 
‘Most blessed of sons is Asher; 
 let him be favoured by his brothers, 
 and let him bathe his feet in oil. 
The bolts of your gates will be iron and bronze, 
 and your strength will equal your days. 
 
‘There is no one like the God of Jeshurun, 
 who rides across the heavens to help you 
 and on the clouds in his majesty.

Bible Stories - Deuteronomy 31:30 - 32:47: The Song Of Moses 
 
And Moses recited the words of this song from beginning to end in the hearing of the whole assembly of Israel: 
 
Listen, you heavens, and I will speak; 
 hear, you earth, the words of my mouth. 
Let my teaching fall like rain 
 and my words descend like dew, 
like showers on new grass, 
 like abundant rain on tender plants. 
 
I will proclaim the name of the Lord. 
 Oh, praise the greatness of our God! 
He is the Rock, his works are perfect, 
 and all his ways are just. 
A faithful God who does no wrong, 
 upright and just is he. 
 
They are corrupt and not his children; 
 to their shame they are a warped and crooked generation. 
Is this the way you repay the Lord, 
 you foolish and unwise people? 
Is he not your Father, your Creator, 
 who made you and formed you? 
 
Remember the days of old; 
 consider the generations long past. 
Ask your father and he will tell you, 
 your elders, and they will explain to you. 
When the Most High gave the nations their inheritance, 
 when he divided all mankind, 
he set up boundaries for the peoples 
 according to the number of the sons of Israel. 
For the Lord’s portion is his people, 
 Jacob his allotted inheritance. 
 
In a desert land he found him, 
 in a barren and howling waste. 
He shielded him and cared for him; 
 he guarded him as the apple of his eye, 
like an eagle that stirs up its nest 
 and hovers over its young, 
that spreads its wings to catch them 
 and carries them on its pinions. 
The Lord alone led him; 
 no foreign god was with him. 
 
He made him ride on the heights of the land 
 and fed him with the fruit of the fields. 
He nourished him with honey from the rock, 
 and with oil from the flinty crag, 
with curds and milk from herd and flock 
 and with fattened lambs and goats, 
with choice rams of Bashan 
 and the finest grains of wheat. 
You drank the foaming blood of the grape. 
 
Jeshurun grew fat and kicked; 
 filled with food, they became heavy and sleek. 
They abandoned the God who made them 
 and rejected the Rock their Saviour. 
They made him jealous with their foreign gods 
 and angered him with their detestable idols. 
They sacrificed to false gods, which are not God – 
 gods they had not known, 
 gods that recently appeared, 
 gods your ancestors did not fear. 
You deserted the Rock, who fathered you; 
 you forgot the God who gave you birth. 
 
The Lord saw this and rejected them 
 because he was angered by his sons and daughters. 
‘I will hide my face from them,’ he said, 
 ‘and see what their end will be; 
for they are a perverse generation, 
 children who are unfaithful. 
They made me jealous by what is no god 
 and angered me with their worthless idols. 
I will make them envious by those who are not a people; 
 I will make them angry by a nation that has no understanding. 
For a fire will be kindled by my wrath, 
 one that burns down to the realm of the dead below. 
It will devour the earth and its harvests 
 and set on fire the foundations of the mountains. 
 
‘I will heap calamities on them 
 and expend my arrows against them. 
I will send wasting famine against them, 
 consuming pestilence and deadly plague; 
I will send against them the fangs of wild beasts, 
 the venom of vipers that glide in the dust. 
In the street the sword will make them childless; 
 in their homes terror will reign. 
The young men and young women will perish, 
 the infants and those with grey hair. 
I said I would scatter them 
 and erase their name from human memory, 
but I dreaded the taunt of the enemy, 
 lest the adversary misunderstand 
and say, “Our hand has triumphed; 
 the Lord has not done all this.”’ 
 
They are a nation without sense, 
 there is no discernment in them. 
If only they were wise and would understand this 
 and discern what their end will be! 
How could one man chase a thousand, 
 or two put ten thousand to flight, 
unless their Rock had sold them, 
 unless the Lord had given them up? 
For their rock is not like our Rock, 
 as even our enemies concede. 
Their vine comes from the vine of Sodom 
 and from the fields of Gomorrah. 
Their grapes are filled with poison, 
 and their clusters with bitterness. 
Their wine is the venom of serpents, 
 the deadly poison of cobras. 
 
‘Have I not kept this in reserve 
 and sealed it in my vaults? 
It is mine to avenge; I will repay. 
 In due time their foot will slip; 
their day of disaster is near 
 and their doom rushes upon them.’

Deuteronomy 31:30 - 32:47: The Song Of Moses | Bible Stories

Bible Stories - Deuteronomy 31:1 - 29: Joshua To Succeed Moses 
 
Then Moses went out and spoke these words to all Israel: ‘I am now a hundred and twenty years old and I am no longer able to lead you. The Lord has said to me, “You shall not cross the Jordan.” The Lord your God himself will cross over ahead of you. He will destroy these nations before you, and you will take possession of their land. Joshua also will cross over ahead of you, as the Lord said. And the Lord will do to them what he did to Sihon and Og, the kings of the Amorites, whom he destroyed along with their land. The Lord will deliver them to you, and you must do to them all that I have commanded you. Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the Lord your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you.’ 
 
Then Moses summoned Joshua and said to him in the presence of all Israel, ‘Be strong and courageous, for you must go with this people into the land that the Lord swore to their ancestors to give them, and you must divide it among them as their inheritance. The Lord himself goes before you and will be with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged.’ 
 
The reading of the law 
So Moses wrote down this law and gave it to the Levitical priests, who carried the ark of the covenant of the Lord, and to all the elders of Israel. Then Moses commanded them: ‘At the end of every seven years, in the year for cancelling debts, during the Festival of Tabernacles, when all Israel comes to appear before the Lord your God at the place he will choose, you shall read this law before them in their hearing. Assemble the people – men, women and children, and the foreigners residing in your towns – so that they can listen and learn to fear the Lord your God and follow carefully all the words of this law. Their children, who do not know this law, must hear it and learn to fear the Lord your God as long as you live in the land you are crossing the Jordan to possess.’ 
 
Israel’s rebellion predicted 
The Lord said to Moses, ‘Now the day of your death is near. Call Joshua and present yourselves at the tent of meeting, where I will commission him.’ So Moses and Joshua came and presented themselves at the tent of meeting. 
 
Then the Lord appeared at the tent in a pillar of cloud, and the cloud stood over the entrance to the tent. And the Lord said to Moses: ‘You are going to rest with your ancestors, and these people will soon prostitute themselves to the foreign gods of the land they are entering. They will forsake me and break the covenant I made with them. And in that day I will become angry with them and forsake them; I will hide my face from them, and they will be destroyed. Many disasters and calamities will come on them, and in that day they will ask, “Have not these disasters come on us because our God is not with us?” And I will certainly hide my face in that day because of all their wickedness in turning to other gods. 
 
‘Now write down this song and teach it to the Israelites and make them sing it, so that it may be a witness for me against them. When I have brought them into the land flowing with milk and honey, the land I promised on oath to their ancestors, and when they eat their fill and thrive, they will turn to other gods and worship them, rejecting me and breaking my covenant. And when many disasters and calamities come on them, this song will testify against them, because it will not be forgotten by their descendants. I know what they are disposed to do, even before I bring them into the land I promised them on oath.’ So Moses wrote down this song that day and taught it to the Israelites. 
 
The Lord gave this command to Joshua son of Nun: ‘Be strong and courageous, for you will bring the Israelites into the land I promised them on oath, and I myself will be with you.’ 
 
After Moses finished writing in a book the words of this law from beginning to end, he gave this command to the Levites who carried the ark of the covenant of the Lord: ‘Take this Book of the Law and place it beside the ark of the covenant of the Lord your God. There it will remain as a witness against you. For I know how rebellious and stiff-necked you are. If you have been rebellious against the Lord while I am still alive and with you, how much more will you rebel after I die! Assemble before me all the elders of your tribes and all your officials, so that I can speak these words in their hearing and call the heavens and the earth to testify against them.

Bible Stories - Deuteronomy 21:11 - 22:30: Various Laws and Violations 
 
When you go to war against your enemies and the Lord your God delivers them into your hands and you take captives, if you notice among the captives a beautiful woman and are attracted to her, you may take her as your wife. Bring her into your home and make her shave her head, trim her nails and put aside the clothes she was wearing when captured. After she has lived in your house and mourned her father and mother for a full month, then you may go to her and be her husband and she shall be your wife. If you are not pleased with her, let her go wherever she wishes. You must not sell her or treat her as a slave, since you have dishonoured her. 
 
The right of the firstborn 
If a man has two wives, and he loves one but not the other, and both bear him sons but the firstborn is the son of the wife he does not love, when he wills his property to his sons, he must not give the rights of the firstborn to the son of the wife he loves in preference to his actual firstborn, the son of the wife he does not love. He must acknowledge the son of his unloved wife as the firstborn by giving him a double share of all he has. That son is the first sign of his father’s strength. The right of the firstborn belongs to him. 
 
A rebellious son 
If someone has a stubborn and rebellious son who does not obey his father and mother and will not listen to them when they discipline him, his father and mother shall take hold of him and bring him to the elders at the gate of his town. They shall say to the elders, ‘This son of ours is stubborn and rebellious. He will not obey us. He is a glutton and a drunkard.’ Then all the men of his town are to stone him to death. You must purge the evil from among you. All Israel will hear of it and be afraid. 
 
Various laws 
If someone guilty of a capital offence is put to death and their body is exposed on a pole, you must not leave the body hanging on the pole overnight. Be sure to bury it that same day, because anyone who is hung on a pole is under God’s curse. You must not desecrate the land the Lord your God is giving you as an inheritance. 
 
If you see your fellow Israelite’s ox or sheep straying, do not ignore it but be sure to take it back to its owner. If they do not live near you or if you do not know who owns it, take it home with you and keep it until they come looking for it. Then give it back. Do the same if you find their donkey or cloak or anything else they have lost. Do not ignore it. 
 
If you see your fellow Israelite’s donkey or ox fallen on the road, do not ignore it. Help the owner to get it to its feet. 
 
A woman must not wear men’s clothing, nor a man wear women’s clothing, for the Lord your God detests anyone who does this. 
 
If you come across a bird’s nest beside the road, either in a tree or on the ground, and the mother is sitting on the young or on the eggs, do not take the mother with the young. You may take the young, but be sure to let the mother go, so that it may go well with you and you may have a long life. 
 
When you build a new house, make a parapet around your roof so that you may not bring the guilt of bloodshed on your house if someone falls from the roof. 
 
Do not plant two kinds of seed in your vineyard; if you do, not only the crops you plant but also the fruit of the vineyard will be defiled. 
 
Do not plough with an ox and a donkey yoked together. 
 
Do not wear clothes of wool and linen woven together. 
 
Make tassels on the four corners of the cloak you wear. 
 
Marriage violations 
If a man takes a wife and, after sleeping with her, dislikes her and slanders her and gives her a bad name, saying, ‘I married this woman, but when I approached her, I did not find proof of her virginity,’ then the young woman’s father and mother shall bring to the town elders at the gate proof that she was a virgin. Her father will say to the elders, ‘I gave my daughter in marriage to this man, but he dislikes her. Now he has slandered her and said, “I did not find your daughter to be a virgin.” But here is the proof of my daughter’s virginity.’ Then her parents shall display the cloth before the elders of the town, and the elders shall take the man and punish him. They shall fine him a hundred shekels of silver and give them to the young woman’s father, because this man has given an Israelite virgin a bad name. She shall continue to be his wife; he must not divorce her as long as he lives.

Bible Stories - Deuteronomy 21:1 - 20: Atonements, Marriage, and Rights 
 
If someone is found slain, lying in a field in the land the Lord your God is giving you to possess, and it is not known who the killer was, your elders and judges shall go out and measure the distance from the body to the neighbouring towns. Then the elders of the town nearest the body shall take a heifer that has never been worked and has never worn a yoke and lead it down to a valley that has not been ploughed or planted and where there is a flowing stream. There in the valley they are to break the heifer’s neck. The Levitical priests shall step forward, for the Lord your God has chosen them to minister and to pronounce blessings in the name of the Lord and to decide all cases of dispute and assault. Then all the elders of the town nearest the body shall wash their hands over the heifer whose neck was broken in the valley, and they shall declare: ‘Our hands did not shed this blood, nor did our eyes see it done. Accept this atonement for your people Israel, whom you have redeemed, Lord, and do not hold your people guilty of the blood of an innocent person.’ Then the bloodshed will be atoned for, and you will have purged from yourselves the guilt of shedding innocent blood, since you have done what is right in the eyes of the Lord. 
 
Marrying a captive woman 
When you go to war against your enemies and the Lord your God delivers them into your hands and you take captives, if you notice among the captives a beautiful woman and are attracted to her, you may take her as your wife. Bring her into your home and make her shave her head, trim her nails and put aside the clothes she was wearing when captured.
