Jesus said to His Disciples: ‘”You have heard that it was said, You shall not commit adultery. But I say to you, everyone who looks at a woman with lust has already committed adultery with her in his heart. … whoever divorces his wife (unless the marriage is unlawful) causes her to commit adultery, and whoever marries a divorced woman commits adultery.'”
“… ‘You have heard that it was said to your ancestors, You shall not kill; and whoever kills will be liable to judgment. But I say to you, whoever is angry with his brother will be liable to judgment …'”
Jesus said … ‘… I have come not to abolish but to fulfill. … whoever obeys and teaches these Commandments will be called greatest in the Kingdom of Heaven.'”
“Jesus said to His Disciples: ‘You are the salt of the earth. … You are the light of the world. A city set on a mountain cannot be hidden. Nor do they light a lamp and then put it under a bushel basket; it is set on a lampstand, where it gives light to all in the house. …'”
“… ‘Blessed are the poor in spirit,
for theirs is the Kingdom of heaven.
Blessed are they who mourn,
for they will be comforted.
Blessed are the meek,
for they will inherit the land.
Blessed are they who hunger and thirst for righteousness,
for they will be satisfied.
Blessed are the merciful,
for they will be shown mercy.
Blessed are the clean of heart,
for they will see God.
Blessed are the peacemakers,
for they will be called children of God.
Blessed are they who are persecuted for the sake of righteousness,
for theirs is the Kingdom of heaven.
Blessed are you when they insult you and persecute you
and utter every kind of evil against you falsely because of me.
Rejoice and be glad,
for your reward will be great in heaven.
Thus they persecuted the prophets who were before you.’…”
“‘Who are My mother and my brothers?’ … ‘whoever does the Will of God is My brother and sister and mother.'”
“… they returned to Jerusalem to look for Him. After three days they found Him in the temple, sitting in the midst of the teachers …. He went down with them and came to Nazareth, and was obedient to them; and His Mother kept all these things in her heart.”
“… the soldiers came and broke the legs of the first and then of the other one who was crucified with Jesus. … when they came to Jesus and saw that He was already dead, they did not break His Legs, but one soldier thrust his lance into His Side, and immediately blood and water flowed out. …”
“… One of the scribes came to Jesus and asked … ‘Which is the first of all the Commandments?’ Jesus replied, ‘The first is this: Hear, O Israel! The Lord our God is Lord alone! You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength. The second is this: You shall love your neighbor as yourself. There is no other Commandment greater than these.’ …”
“… Jesus said … ‘When they rise from the dead, they neither marry nor are given in marriage, but they are like the Angels in Heaven. As for the dead being raised, have you not read in the Book of Moses, in the passage about the bush, how God told him, I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob? He is not God of the dead but of the living. …'”
