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
The Yeast of the Pharisees and the Sadducees
1The Pharisees and Sadducees approached, # Mt 12:38-39; Mk 8:11-21; Lk 12:54-56 and as a test, asked Him to show them a sign from heaven. # Lk 11:16; 1Co 1:22
2He answered them: “When evening comes you say, ‘It will be good weather because the sky is red.’ 3And in the morning, ‘Today will be stormy because the sky is red and threatening.’ You # Other mss read Hypocrites! You know how to read the appearance of the sky, but you can’t read the signs of the times. # Other mss omit When (v. 2) through end of v. 3 4An evil and adulterous generation demands a sign, but no sign will be given to it except the sign of # Other mss add the prophet Jonah.” # Mt 4:13; 21:17; Lk 11:29 Then He left them and went away.
5The disciples reached the other shore, # Lit disciples went to the other side and they had forgotten to take bread.
6Then Jesus told them, “Watch out and beware of the yeast # Or leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees.” # Mt 3:7; 8:15; Lk 12:1; 1Co 5:6-8; Gl 5:9
7And they discussed among themselves, “We didn’t bring any bread.”
8Aware of this, Jesus said, “You of little faith! # Mt 6:30; 8:26; 14:31; Lk 12:28 Why are you discussing among yourselves that you do not have bread? 9Don’t you understand yet? Don’t you remember the five loaves for the 5,000 and how many baskets you collected? 10Or the seven loaves for the 4,000 and how many large baskets you collected? # Mt 14:17-21; 15:34-38 11Why is it you don’t understand that when I told you, ‘Beware of the yeast of the Pharisees and Sadducees,’ it wasn’t about bread? ” # Mt 3:7; 16:6; Mk 8:15; Lk 12:1 12Then they understood that He did not tell them to beware of the yeast in bread, but of the teaching of the Pharisees and Sadducees. # Mt 5:20; 17:13; 23:3
Peter’s Confession of the Messiah
13When Jesus came to the region of Caesarea Philippi, # A town north of Galilee at the base of Mount Hermon # Mk 8:27-29; Lk 9:18-20 He asked His disciples, “Who do people say that the Son of Man is? ” # Other mss read that I, the Son of Man, am
14And they said, “Some say John the Baptist; others, Elijah; still others, Jeremiah or one of the prophets.” # Mt 14:2; 17:10; Mk 6:15; Lk 9:8; Jn 1:21
15“But you,” He asked them, “who do you say that I am? ”
16Simon Peter answered, “You are the Messiah, the Son of the living God! ” # Mt 1:16; Jn 11:27
17And Jesus responded, “Simon son of Jonah, # Or son of John # Jn 1:42; 21:15-17 you are blessed because flesh and blood did not reveal this to you, but My Father in heaven. # 1Co 15:50; Gl 1:16; Eph 6:12; Heb 2:14 18And I also say to you that you are Peter, # Peter (Gk Petros) = a specific stone or rock and on this rock # Rock (Gk petra) = a rocky crag or bedrock I will build My church, # Mt 18:17; Ac 5:11; 7:38; 8:1,3; 9:31; 11:22,26 and the forces # Lit gates of Hades will not overpower it. 19I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven, # Is 22:22; Mt 18:18; Jn 20:23; Rv 1:18; 3:7 and whatever you bind on earth is already bound # Or earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth is already loosed # Or earth will be loosed in heaven.”
20And He gave the disciples orders to tell no one that He was # Other mss add Jesus the Messiah. # Mk 8:30; Lk 9:21
His Death and Resurrection Predicted
21From # Mk 8:31–9:1; Lk 9:22-27 then on Jesus began to point out to His disciples that He must go to Jerusalem and suffer many things from the elders, chief priests, and scribes, be killed, and be raised the third day. # Mt 17:9; 20:18; 27:63; Lk 24:7; Jn 2:19 22Then Peter took Him aside and began to rebuke Him, “Oh no, # Lit Mercy to You = May God have mercy on You Lord! This will never happen to You! ”
23But He turned and told Peter, “Get behind Me, Satan! You are an offense to Me because you’re not thinking about God’s concerns, # Lit about the things of God but man’s.” # 2Sm 19:22; Rm 8:5,7; Php 2:5; 3:19; Col 3:2
Take Up Your Cross
24Then Jesus said to His disciples, “If anyone wants to come with Me, he must deny himself, take up his cross, and follow Me. # Mt 10:38; Lk 14:27 25For whoever wants to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life because of Me will find it. # Mt 10:39; Jn 12:25 26What will it benefit a man if he gains the whole world yet loses his life? Or what will a man give in exchange for his life? # Ps 49:7-8; Lk 12:20 27For the Son of Man is going to come with His angels in the glory of His Father, # Mt 26:64; Mk 8:38; Ac 1:11; 1Th 1:10; 4:16; Rv 1:7 and then He will reward each according to what he has done. 28I assure you: There are some standing here who will not taste death until they see the Son of Man coming in His kingdom.” # Mt 4:23; 10:23; Ac 20:25
