Y'shua then, when full of the Ruach haKodesh, returned from the Yordanan. And the Ruach led him into the wilderness,

forty days, to be tempted by the Calumniator. And he ate nothing in those days; and when he completed them, at the end he was hungry.

And the Calumniator said to him: If you are the Son of Elohim, say to this stone that it become bread.

Y'shua answered and said to him: It is written that a human does not live by bread alone, but by every word of Elohim.

And Satana took him up to a high mountain and showed him all the kingdoms of the earth in a short time.

And the Calumniator said to him: To you I will give all this authority and its glory, which is delivered to me, and to whomever I will I give it.

If therefore you will worship before me, all of it will be yours.

Y'shua answered and said to him: It is written, You will worship Master YHWH your Elohim, and him only you will serve.

And he brought him to Urishlim and set him on the wing of the temple and said to him: If you are the Son of Elohim, throw yourself down from here.

for it is written that he will command his messengers concerning you, to keep you,

and on their arms they will lift you up, so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.

But Y'shua answered and said to him: It is said, You will not test Master YHWH your Elohim.

And when the Calumniator finished all his temptations, he departed from him for a time.

And Y'shua returned in the power of the Ruach to Galila, and a good report about him went out in all the region around them.

And he was teaching in their synagogues, and was praised by every person.

And he came to Natsrath, where he had been brought up, and he entered as he was accustomed into the synagogue on the Sabbath day, and stood up to read.

And the book of Eshaya the prophet was given to him. And Y'shua opened the book and found the place where it is written:

The Ruach of Master YHWH is upon me, and because of this he has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor, and has sent me to heal the broken of heart, and to proclaim release to the captives and sight to the blind, and to set free the oppressed with forgiveness of their sins;

and to proclaim the acceptable year of Master YHWH.

And he rolled up the book and gave it to the servitor, and went and sat down. And the eyes of all who were in the synagogue were gazing on him.

And he began to say to them: Today this writing is fulfilled in your ears.

And all were witnessing to him and were marveling at the words of grace that were going out from his mouth, and they were saying: Is this not the son of Yosip?

Y'shua said to them: Perhaps you will say to me this proverb, Physician, heal yourself; and all that we have heard you did in Kfar-Nachum, do also here in your city.

But he said: Amen I say to you, that there is no prophet who is accepted in his city.

For I tell you the truth, that there were many widows in Yisrael in the days of Eliyahu the prophet, when the heavens were closed three years and six months, and there was a great famine in all the land.

Yet to none of them was Eliyahu sent, except to Tsarfat of Tsidon, to a widow woman.

And there were many lepers in the house of Yisrael in the days of Elisha the prophet, and not one of them was cleansed, except Naaman the Aramean.

And when they heard these things, those in the synagogue were all filled with wrath.

And they rose up and thrust him outside the city and brought him to the brow of the mountain on which their city was built, so they might throw him down from the cliff.

But he passed through their midst and went away.

And he went down to Kfar-Nachum, a city of Galila, and was teaching them on the sabbath.

And they were astonished at his teaching, for his word was authoritative.

And there was in the synagogue a man in whom was a spirit of an unclean demon, and he cried out with a loud voice,

and said: Leave me alone! What is there between us and you, Y'shua the Natsraya? Have you come to destroy us? I know you, who you are, the Holy One of Elohim.

And Y'shua rebuked him and said: Shut your mouth, and come out of him. And the demon threw him down in the midst and came out of him, without harming him at all.

And great wonder seized everyone, and they were talking with one another and saying: What is this word? For with authority and with power he commands the unclean spirits, and they come out.

And a report about him went out into all the region around them.

And when Y'shua went out from the synagogue, he entered the house of Shimon. And Shimon's mother-in-law was afflicted with a great fever, and they sought from him on her behalf.

And he stood over her and rebuked her fever, and it left her. And at once she rose and was serving them.

And when the sun was setting, all those who had sick ones afflicted with various diseases brought them to him. And he was laying his hand on each one of them and healing them.

And demons were also going out from many, crying out and saying, You are the Mashiyach, the Son of Elohim. And he was rebuking them and not allowing them to say that they knew he was the Mashiyach.

And at the dawn of the day he went out and went to a deserted place. And the crowds were seeking him and came as far as him and held him so that he would not go away from them.

But Y'shua said to them, I must also announce the kingdom of Elohim to other cities, for on this I was sent.

And he was preaching in the synagogues of Galila.
