1 Augustus taxeth all the Roman empire: Joseph goeth with Mary to be taxed at Bethlehem. 6 The birth of Christ: 8 an angel bringeth news thereof to the shepherds: the heavenly host praise God. 15 The shepherds, finding it to be as the angel had said, glorify God. 21 The circumcision of Christ. 22 The purifying of Mary. 25 Simeon's prophecy, 36 and Anna's, concerning Christ. 39 Jesus groweth, and increaseth in wisdom. 41 At twelve years of age he goeth with his parents to Jerusalem, and questioneth with the doctors in the temple: 51 he is obedient to his parents.
1 The preaching and baptism of John: 15 his testimony of Christ: 19 Herod imprisoneth John for his free reproof. 21 Christ is baptized, and receiveth testimony from heaven. 23 The age and genealogy of Christ from Joseph upwards.
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.
1 Christ teacheth the people out of Simon's ship. 4 The miraculous draught of fishes: Simon and the two sons of Zebedee follow him. 12 Christ cleanseth a leper; 16 prayeth in the wilderness: 17 answereth the reasonings of the scribes and Pharisees concerning his forgiving sins, and healeth the sick of the palsy: 27 calleth Levi from the receipt of custom: 29 justifieth his eating with publicans and sinners: 33 excuseth his disciples from fasting for the present; 36 and illustrateth the matter by a twofold parable.
1 Christ alleged scripture in defence of his disciples' plucking the ears of corn on the sabbath day: 6 he appealeth to reason, and healeth the withered hand on the sabbath. 12 He spendeth the night in prayer, and chooseth the twelve apostles: 17 he healeth various diseased people: 20 pronounceth blessings and woes: 27 teacheth to return good for evil, and other lessons of moral duty: 46 and admonisheth to be his disciples in practice, and not in profession only.
1 Christ admireth the centurion's singular faith, and healeth his absent servant: 11 he raiseth to life the widow's son at Nain: 18 and sendeth back the messengers of John with an account of the miracles they had seen wrought by him: 24 his testimony of John: 31 he reproveth the perverseness of the people, who were not to be won either by the manners of John or himself: 36 he alloweth his feet to be washed and anointed by a woman who had been a sinner; and in a parable sheweth that even the worst of sinners may be forgiven upon the terms of a sincere repentance.
1 Christ preacheth through the cities, attended by his disciples, and ministered unto by devout women of their substance. 4 The parable of the sower. 9 Why Christ taught in parables. 11 The parable expounded. 16 Light is given to be improved and communicated. 19 Christ sheweth whom he regardeth as his nearest relations: 22 stilleth a tempest on the sea with his word: 26 casteth out the legion of devils, and suffereth them to enter into the herd of swine: is entreated by the Gadarenes to depart, and sendeth back him that was healed to declare God's goodness: 41 is besought by Jairus to go and heal his daughter: 43 by the way he healeth a woman of an inveterate issue of blood: 49 he raiseth Jairus' daughter to life.
1 Christ sendeth his apostles to work miracles and preach the gospel. 7 Herod desireth to see him. 10 The apostles return: 12 Christ feedeth five thousand men with five loaves and two fishes. 18 The different opinions concerning Christ; Peter's confession of him: Christ foretelleth his own death and resurrection: 23 he sheweth his followers the necessity of self-denial, and that they must not be ashamed of owning his gospel: 28 he is transfigured: 37 healeth a demoniac: 43 again foresheweth his sufferings: 46 checketh the ambitious disputes of his disciples: 49 will not have them forbid any one to work miracles in his name: 51 reproveth the fiery zeal of James and John against the Samaritans who would not receive him: 57 and proposeth terms to three persons who offer to follow him.
1 Christ sendeth out the seventy disciples to work miracles and to preach: 13 he pronounceth a woe against Chorazin, Bethsaida, and Capernaum. 17 The seventy return with joy; Christ sheweth them wherein to rejoice: 21 he thanketh his Father for having revealed his gospel to the simple only: 23 he sheweth the blessedness of those that were called into his church: 25 he teacheth a lawyer how to attain eternal life; and by the parable of the good Samaritan sheweth whom we are to consider as our neighbour: 38 he commendeth Mary's attention to his doctrine in preference to Martha's busy care to entertain him.
1 Christ teacheth to pray, assuring that God will give all good things to them that ask him: 14 he casteth out a devil, and reproveth the blasphemy of the Pharisees, who ascribed the miracle to the power of Beelzebub: 27 he sheweth who are the truly blessed; 29 and the inexcusableness of not believing his gospel: 37 he reprehendeth the outward shew of holiness in the Pharisees, and pronounceth woes against them and the scribes and lawyers.
1 Christ teacheth his disciples to avoid hypocrisy, and not to be fearful in publishing his doctrine: 13 he refuseth to be judge in a civil cause, and warneth the people to beware of covetousness by the parable of a rich man, who boasted himself in his multiplied stores: 22 he exhorteth not to be over anxious about the provisions of this life; but to seek the kingdom of God; 33 to lay up treasure in heaven by giving alms; 35 and to be always ready for our Lord's coming. 41 By the parable of a good and a wicked steward he sheweth the duty of his ministers in particular: 49 he foretelleth the divisions on account of the gospel: 54 reproveth the people for not discerning the times: 57 and sheweth the danger of neglecting the means of reconciliation offered them.
1 Christ sheweth that temporal calamities are no sure signs of sinfulness, but that others should take warning by them, and repent. 6 The parable of the fig tree that was ordered to be cut down for being fruitless. 10 Christ healeth a woman that had been long bowed together, and putteth the hypocritical ruler of the synagogue to silence: 18 he likeneth the progress of the gospel to a grain of mustard seed; 20 and to leaven: 23 being asked of the number of the saved, he exhorteth to strive to enter in at the strait gate: 31 he will not be diverted from his course through fear of Herod; and lamenteth over the approaching desolation of Jerusalem.
1 Christ healeth the dropsy on the sabbath, and justifieth his doing so: 7 he recommendeth humility; 12 and hospitality toward the poor. 15 The parable of the marriage supper, and of the guests, who making excuses were excluded, and their rooms filled by others: 25 he adviseth those who are willing to be his disciples to examine beforehand their resolution in case of persecutions. 34 The unprofitableness of salt, when it hath lost its savour.
1 The Pharisees murmur at Christ for receiving sinners. 3 The parable of the lost sheep, 8 and piece of silver; 11 and of the prodigal son.

1 The parable of the unjust judge and the importunate widow. 9 The parable of the Pharisee and publican. 15 Christ's tenderness to the little children that were brought unto him. 18 He teacheth a ruler how to attain eternal life: 24 he sheweth how hard it is for the rich to enter into the kingdom of God: 28 promiseth rewards to those who have foregone ought for the gospel's sake: 31 foretelleth his own death and resurrection: 35 and giveth sight to a blind man.
1 Christ visiteth Zacchaeus the publican. 11 The parable of a nobleman who left money with his servants to trade with in his absence. 28 Christ rideth in triumph into Jerusalem: 41 he weepeth over the city: 45 driveth the buyers and sellers out of the temple: 47 teacheth daily therein: the rulers seek to destroy him.
1 Christ silenceth those who questioned his authority. 9 The parable of the vineyard let out to wicked husbandmen. 19 The chief priests and scribes seek matter against him: his reply to their insidious question concerning paying tribute to Caesar. 27 He proveth the Sadducees completely wrong concerning the resurrection: 41 he offereth an unanswerable proposition concerning a difficulty relating to the character of Christ: 45 he warneth his disciples against the ambition and hypocrisy of the scribes.
1 Christ valueth the poor widow's two mites above all the larger offerings of the rich: 5 foretelleth the destruction of the temple; 7 the signs and calamities that should precede and accompany it; 25 and what should happen at the time of the Son of man's coming: 34 he exhorteth to watchfulness and prayer.
1 The chief priests and scribes conspire against Christ: 3 Judas covenanteth to betray him. 7 The apostles sent to prepare the passover: Christ eateth it with them; 19 and instituteth his last supper: 21 he covertly pointeth out the traitor: 24 checketh the ambitious strife of his disciples, and promiseth them a share in his kingdom: 31 he telleth Peter of Satan's desire to sift him; 35 he adviseth his disciples to provide necessaries and a sword: 39 his agony and prayer in the garden: 47 he is betrayed; 50 healeth a servant of the high priest, whose ear was cut off; 54 is led to the high priest's house; Peter thrice denieth him. 63 Christ is scornfully used; 66 and brought before the council, where confessing himself to be the Son of God, he is pronounced guilty of blasphemy.
1 Jesus is accused before Pilate, who sendeth him to Herod. 8 Herod disappointed in his expectations mocketh him, and sendeth him back. 13 Pilate willing to release Jesus, is prevailed on by the clamours of the people to release Barabbas, and give Jesus to be crucified. 26 Being led to the place of execution, Jesus biddeth the women who lamented him to weep rather for themselves and their children: 32 he is crucified between two malefactors: 34 prayeth for his enemies; 35 is scoffed at; 39 reviled by one of the malefactors, but confessed by the other, to whom he promiseth a place in paradise. 44 The unusual darkness, and rending of the veil of the temple: 46 Christ crieth unto God, and expireth: 47 the centurion's confession of him. 50 Joseph of Arimathaea beggeth his body, and burieth it. 55 The women prepare spices for the end of the sabbath.
1 Christ's resurrection is declared by two angels to the women that came to the sepulchre, who report it to others, but are not believed. 12 Peter visiteth the sepulchre. 13 Christ appeareth to two disciples going to Emmaus; 36 and to the apostles, eating before them, and explaining the scriptures concerning himself: 49 he promiseth them the Holy Ghost, 50 and ascendeth into heaven.
