Capernaum

And leaving behind the city of Nazareth, he went and lived in Capernaum, near the sea, at the borders of Zebulun and of Naphtali,

And when he had entered into Capernaum, a centurion approached, petitioning him,

And you, Capernaum, would you be exalted all the way to heaven? You shall descend all the way to Hell. For if the miracles that were done in you had been done in Sodom, perhaps it would have remained, even to this day.

He said, “Yes.” And when he had entered into the house, Jesus went before him, saying: “How does it seem to you, Simon? The kings of the earth, from whom do they receive tribute or the census tax: from their own sons or from foreigners?”

And they entered into Capernaum. And entering into the synagogue promptly on the Sabbaths, he taught them.

And after some days, he again entered into Capernaum.

But they were silent. For indeed, on the way, they had disputed among themselves as to which of them was greater.

And rising up, he went from there into the area of Judea beyond the Jordan. And again, the crowd came together before him. And just as he was accustomed to do, again he taught them.

And he said to them: “Certainly, you will recite to me this saying, ‘Physician, heal yourself.’ The many great things that we have heard were done in Capernaum, do here also in your own country.”

And he descended to Capernaum, a city of Galilee. And there he taught them on the Sabbaths.

And when he had completed all his words in the hearing of the people, he entered Capernaum.

And as for you, Capernaum, who would be exalted even up to Heaven: you shall be submerged into Hell.

After this, he descended to Capernaum, with his mother and his brothers and his disciples, but they did not remain there for many days.

Then he went again into Cana of Galilee, where he made water into wine. And there was a certain ruler, whose son was sick at Capernaum.

Since he had heard that Jesus came to Galilee from Judea, he sent to him and begged him to come down and heal his son. For he was beginning to die.

And when they had climbed into a boat, they went across the sea to Capernaum. And darkness had now arrived, and Jesus had not returned to them.

Therefore, when the crowd had seen that Jesus was not there, nor his disciples, they climbed into the small boats, and they went to Capernaum, seeking Jesus.

This is the bread that descends from heaven. It is not like the manna that your fathers ate, for they died. Whoever eats this bread shall live forever.”
