1 Christ fasteth forty days, and is tempted of the devil. 14 He beginneth to preach: 16 the people of Nazareth wonder at his gracious words, but being offended go about to kill him: he escapeth by miracle. 33 He casteth out a devil: 38 healeth Simon's mother in law, 40 and many other diseased persons: 41 the devils acknowledging him are silenced: 42 he preacheth through the cities of Galilee.
