Mattityahu 16
16
1And the Perushim and Tzedukim approached, to test Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach, asking him to present them with an ot (sign) from Shomayim.
2But in reply, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach said to them, When it is erev, you say, It will be fair weather, for the sky is fiery red.
3And in the boker (morning) you say, There will be stormy weather today, for the sky is overcast fiery red and threatening. You have daas to distinguish the signs of the appearance of the sky, but you can't discern the signs of the times?#16:3 T.N. See Ro 1:18
4A dor rah umnaef (an evil and adulterous generation) demands an ot (sign), and no ot will be given it except the ot of Yonah HaNavi. And having left them, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach went away.
5When the Moshiachʼs talmidim arrived at the other side, they had forgotten to take lechem.
6But Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach said to them, Take special precaution against the chametz (swelling leaven) of the Perushim and Tzedukim.
7But they began reasoning among themselves, saying, We took no lechem.
8But Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach, aware of their machshavot (thoughts), said, You men of little emunah, why do you reason among yourselves that you have no lechem?
9Do you not yet have binah or remember the five loaves of the chamesh elafim (five thousand), and how many baskets full you took up?
10Or the shevah loaves of the arbaat elafim (four thousand), and how many large baskets full you took up?
11How is it that you do not chap (grasp mentally) that I did not speak to you concerning lechem? But beware of the chametz (swelling, all-permeating leaven)#16:11 like evil, like gaavah, pride of the Perushim and Tzedukim.
12Then Moshiachʼs talmidim understood that Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach did not say to beware of the chametz of the lechem, but of the chametz of the teaching of the Perushim and the Tzedukim.
13Now, having arrived in the district of Caesarea Philippi, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach began asking his talmidim, saying, Who do men say that [I] the Bar Enosh am?
14And Moshiachʼs talmidim said, Some say Yochanan of the tevilah of teshuva, and others say, Eliyahu HaNavi, but still others say, Yirmeyah or one of the Neviim.
15He says to them, But you, who do you consider me to be?
16And, Shim'on Kefa said in reply, You are the Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach, the Ben Elohim Chayyim!
17And Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach said in reply to him, Ashrey atah (happy are you), Shim'on Bar-Yonah, because basar vadahm (flesh and blood) did not give you this hisgalus (revelation), but Avi shbaShomayim.
18And I also say to you that you are Shim'on Kefa#16:18 Petros and upon this TSUR I will build my Kehillah, my Chavurah (the Community of Moshiach) and the shaarei Sheol (gates of Sheol) shall not overpower it.
19I will give you the maftechot Malchut HaShomayim (keys of the Kingdom of Heaven); and whatever you shall bind as asur (prohibited) on haaretz shall be bound as asur (prohibited) in Shomayim, and whatever you shall loose as mutar (permitted) on haaretz shall be loosed as mutar (permitted) in Shomayim.
20Then Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach gave the directive to his talmidim that they should tell no one that he was the Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach.
21From that point he began to explain to his talmidim that it was necessary that Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach go to Yerushalayim, and suffer many things from the Zekenim (Elders), and the Rashei Hakohanim (the Chief Priests) and the Sofrim (Scribes) and it was necessary for Moshiach to be killed and have his histalkus (passing), that he would undergo the Techiyas HaMoshiach (Resurrection of Moshiach) on Yom HaShlishi.
22And Kefa took him aside and began to rebuke him, saying, Chas vshalom (G-d forbid)! Adoni, this shall never happen to you!
23But Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach turned and said to Kefa, Get behind me, HaSatan! You are a michshol (stumbling block) to me; for you are not setting your mind on the things of Hashem, but the things of Bnei Adam!
24Then Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach said to his talmidim, If anyone wishes to come after me, let him turn in hinnazrut (self-denial), and take up his etz shel mesiros nefesh (tree of self-sacrifice), and follow me.
25For whoever wishes to save his nefesh shall lose it; but whoever loses his nefesh on account of me#16:25 Moshiach shall find it.
26For what will a man be benefited if he acquires the whole world and forfeits his neshamah, or what will a man give in exchange for his neshamah?
27For the Bar Enosh#16:27 Moshiach is about to come in the kavod of his Av with his malachim and will then recompense every man according to his ma'asim.
28Omein, I say to you, there are some of those who are standing here who shall not taste death until they see the Bias of the Bar Enosh#16:28 Moshiach coming in his Malchut.

Matthew 16
16
Pharisees and Sadducees Test Jesus
1The Pharisees and Sadducees came up, and putting Jesus to the test, they asked Him to show them a #16:1 I.e., confirming miraclesign from heaven. 2But He replied to them, “#16:2 Early mss do not contain the rest of v 2 and v 3When it is evening, you say, ‘It will be fair weather, for the sky is red.’ 3And in the morning, ‘There will be a storm today, for the sky is red and threatening.’ You know how to discern the #16:3 Lit faceappearance of the sky, but are you unable to discern the signs of the times? 4An evil and adulterous generation wants a #16:4 I.e., confirming miraclesign; and so a #16:4 I.e., confirming miraclesign will not be given to it, except the sign of Jonah.” And He left them and went away.
5And the disciples came to the other side of the sea, but they had forgotten to bring any bread. 6And Jesus said to them, “Watch out and beware of the #16:6 I.e., fermented doughleaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees.” 7They began to discuss this among themselves, saying, “He said that because we did not bring any bread.” 8But Jesus, aware of this, said, “You men of little faith, why are you discussing among yourselves the fact that you have no bread? 9Do you not yet understand nor remember the five loaves of the five thousand, and how many baskets you picked up? 10Nor the seven loaves of the four thousand, and how many large baskets you picked up? 11How is it that you do not understand that I did not speak to you about bread? But beware of the #16:11 I.e., as a symbol of corruptionleaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees.” 12Then they understood that He did not say to beware of the #16:12 I.e., fermented doughleaven of bread, but of the teaching of the Pharisees and Sadducees.
Peter’s Confession of Christ
13Now when Jesus came into the region of Caesarea Philippi, He was asking His disciples, “Who do people say that the Son of Man is?” 14And they said, “Some say John the Baptist; and others, #16:14 Gr EliasElijah; and still others, #16:14 Gr JeremiasJeremiah, or one of the other prophets.” 15He *said to them, “But who do you yourselves say that I am?” 16Simon Peter answered, “You are the #16:16 I.e., MessiahChrist, the Son of the living God.” 17And Jesus said to him, “Blessed are you, Simon #16:17 I.e., son of JonahBarjona, because flesh and blood did not reveal this to you, but My Father who is in heaven. 18And I also say to you that you are #16:18 Gr Petros, a stonePeter, and upon this #16:18 Gr petra, massive rock formation; bedrockrock I will build My church; and the gates of Hades will not overpower it. 19I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven; and whatever you #16:19 I.e., forbidbind on earth #16:19 Gr fut. pft. pass. tenseshall have been bound in heaven, and whatever you #16:19 I.e., permitloose on earth #16:19 Gr fut. pft. pass. tenseshall have been loosed in heaven.” 20Then He gave the disciples strict orders that they were to tell no one that He was the #16:20 I.e., MessiahChrist.
Jesus Foretells His Death
21From that time #16:21 Two early mss Jesus ChristJesus began to #16:21 Or showpoint out to His disciples that it was necessary for Him to go to Jerusalem and to suffer many things from the elders, chief priests, and scribes, and to be killed, and to be raised up on the third day. 22And yet Peter took Him aside and began to rebuke Him, saying, “#16:22 Lit (God be) merciful to YouGod forbid it, Lord! This shall never #16:22 Lit behappen to You!” 23But He turned and said to Peter, “Get behind Me, Satan! You are a stumbling block to Me; for you are not setting your mind on #16:23 Lit the things of GodGod’s purposes, but men’s.”
Discipleship Is Costly
24Then Jesus said to His disciples, “If anyone wants to come after Me, he must deny himself, take up his cross, and follow Me. 25For whoever wants to save his #16:25 Or soullife will lose it; but whoever loses his #16:25 Or soullife for My sake will find it. 26For what good will it do a person if he gains the whole world, but #16:26 I.e., suffers the loss offorfeits his soul? Or what will a person give in exchange for his soul? 27For the Son of Man is going to come in the glory of His Father with His angels, and will then repay every person according to his #16:27 Lit activitydeeds.
28 “Truly I say to you, there are some of those who are standing here who will not taste death until they see the Son of Man coming in His kingdom.”
