In my former book, Theophilus, I wrote about all that Jesus began to do and to teach

Theophilus, I wrote about Jesus in my earlier book. I wrote about all he did and taught

In my first book I told you, Theophilus, about everything Jesus began to do and teach

I wrote the first narrative, Theophilus, about all that Jesus began to do and teach

The first account I composed, Theophilus, about all that Jesus began to do and teach,

The former account I made, O Theophilus, of all that Jesus began both to do and teach,

The former treatise I made, O Theophilus, concerning all that Jesus began both to do and to teach,

I wrote the first narrative, Theophilus, about all that Jesus began to do and teach

The former treatise have I made, O Theophilus, of all that Jesus began both to do and teach,

I wrote the former account, Theophilus, about all that Jesus began to do and teach

The first book I wrote, Theophilus, concerned all that Jesus began both to do and to teach,

it seemed good to me also, having followed all things closely for some time past, to write an orderly account for you, most excellent Theophilus,

And he said to them,“ What things?” And they said to him,“ Concerning Jesus of Nazareth, a man who was a prophet mighty in deed and word before God and all the people,

And he went throughout all Galilee, teaching in their synagogues and proclaiming the gospel of the kingdom and healing every disease and every affliction among the people.So his fame spread throughout all Syria, and they brought him all the sick, those afflicted with various diseases and pains, those oppressed by demons, those having seizures, and paralytics, and he healed them.

The high priest then questioned Jesus about his disciples and his teaching.Jesus answered him,“ I have spoken openly to the world. I have always taught in synagogues and in the temple, where all Jews come together. I have said nothing in secret.Why do you ask me? Ask those who have heard me what I said to them; they know what I said.”

In that hour he healed many people of diseases and plagues and evil spirits, and on many who were blind he bestowed sight.And he answered them,“ Go and tell John what you have seen and heard: the blind receive their sight, the lame walk, lepers are cleansed, and the deaf hear, the dead are raised up, the poor have good news preached to them.And blessed is the one who is not offended by me.”

For to this you have been called, because Christ also suffered for you, leaving you an example, so that you might follow in his steps.He committed no sin, neither was deceit found in his mouth.When he was reviled, he did not revile in return; when he suffered, he did not threaten, but continued entrusting himself to him who judges justly.

Jesus, when he began his ministry, was about thirty years of age, being the son( as was supposed) of Joseph, the son of Heli,

the blind receive their sight and the lame walk, lepers are cleansed and the deaf hear, and the dead are raised up, and the poor have good news preached to them.

“ Men of Israel, hear these words: Jesus of Nazareth, a man attested to you by God with mighty works and wonders and signs that God did through him in your midst, as you yourselves know—

Jesus answered them,“ I have shown you many good works from the Father; for which of them are you going to stone me?”The Jews answered him,“ It is not for a good work that we are going to stone you but for blasphemy, because you, being a man, make yourself God.”Jesus answered them,“ Is it not written in your Law,‘ I said, you are gods’?If he called them gods to whom the word of God came— and Scripture cannot be broken—do you say of him whom the Father consecrated and sent into the world,‘ You are blaspheming,’ because I said,‘ I am the Son of God’?If I am not doing the works of my Father, then do not believe me;but if I do them, even though you do not believe me, believe the works, that you may know and understand that the Father is in me and I am in the Father.”

After these days his wife Elizabeth conceived, and for five months she kept herself hidden, saying,
