Matthew 17
17
1After six days Yeshua [God is Salvation] took Kefa [pebble], Ya’akov [He who grabs onto the heal of] and Yochanan [Yah is gracious] his brother and brought them to a high mountain where he might pray.
2While he was praying he was changed before them and the skin of his face shone like the sun and his garments became white like snow.
3Then Moshe [drawn out] and Eliyahu [my God is Yah], while speaking with him, were revealed to them and they told Yeshua [God is Salvation] all which would happen to him in Yerushalayim [abode of peace]. Kefa [pebble] and his companions were asleep. Asleep but not asleep; awake but not awake. They saw his body and the two men with him.
4When they went away, then Kefa [pebble] said to Yeshua [God is Salvation]: ‘It is good to be here. Let us make here three tabernacles, one for you, one for Moshe [drawn out], and one for Eliyahu [my God is Yah]’, because he did not know what he was saying.
5While he was still speaking, behold a cloud covered them and they were greatly alarmed. While they were under the cloud they heard from the midst of the cloud a voice speaking and saying: “Behold, this is My Son My beloved, My delight is in him, you shall obey him”
6The disciples heard, fell on their faces to the ground, and feared exceedingly.
7When the Voice ceased, Yeshua [God is Salvation] said to them: “Arise, do not fear”
8They lifted up their eyes and saw no one except Yeshua [God is Salvation] alone.
9Yeshua [God is Salvation] came down from the mountain and commanded them saying: “Tell no man the vision you have seen until the Son of Man has risen from death”.
10His disciples asked him saying: “Why do the Torah-teachers (Scribes) say that Eliyahu [my God is Yah] will come first?
11He answered them and said: “Indeed Eliyahu [my God is Yah] will come and will restore to repentance all the world”.
12“I say to you, he has already come, they did not know him, and they did to him according to their desire. So they will do to the Son of Man”.
13Then the disciples understood that regarding Yochanan [Yah is gracious] the Baptizer he was saying this.
14It came to pass when he approached the crowds, a man came to him, bowing on his knees.
15He said: ‘Have mercy on me my Adon [Lord - Kurios of the earth], and pity my son because he is terrified of an evil Spirit [Ruach] and is very sick. He grinds his teeth, foams at his mouth, falls from his place to the ground, and falls sometimes into fire and sometimes into water’.
16I brought him to your disciples, but they were unable to heal him.
17Yeshua [God is Salvation] answered and said: “Evil generation, woe to you who deny me; how long will I be with you, how long will I bear your trouble? Bring him to me”.
18And Yeshua [God is Salvation] rebuked the demon, and it came out of him, and the boy was cured at once.
19The disciples drew near to Yeshua [God is Salvation] secretly and said to him: “Why were we not able to cast it out”
20He said to them: “Because of the limitation of your faith. Truly I say to you, if there be any faith in you, as a grain of mustard, if you believe, you will say to this mountain depart and it will depart; nothing will be withheld from you.”
21“But this kind of demon does not come out except by prayer and fasting.
22They were in Galil [circuit] and Yeshua [God is Salvation] said: “The Son of Man will be delivered into the hand of men”
23“They will kill him and on the third day he will arise”.
24The came to K’far-Nachum [town of comfort] -Marta [she was rebellious] and the tax collectors drew near to Kefa [pebble] and said to him: “Your teacher does not follow the custom to pay tax”
25Thus they spoke. He went into the house and Yeshua [God is Salvation] anticipated him saying to Kefa [pebble] “What is your judgment Kefa [pebble], the kings of the earth, from whom do they take tribute, from their sons or from foreigners?”
26He answered him: “From foreigners”. Yeshua [God is Salvation] said to him: “If so, then, the sons are free”. Then he said: “Do not be dismayed because of this”.
27He said to Kefa [pebble] “Go to the sea and cast a fishing hook and fish with it, because, in the mouth of the one you will catch first, you will find a silver coin. That you will give for us”

Matthew 17
17
1And after six days Jesus taketh with him Peter, and James, and John his brother, and bringeth them up into a high mountain apart: 2and he was transfigured before them; and his face did shine as the sun, and his garments became white as the light. 3And behold, there appeared unto them Moses and Elijah talking with him. 4And Peter answered, and said unto Jesus, Lord, it is good for us to be here: if thou wilt, I will make here three tabernacles; one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elijah. 5While he was yet speaking, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them: and behold, a voice out of the cloud, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased; hear ye him. 6And when the disciples heard it, they fell on their face, and were sore afraid. 7And Jesus came and touched them and said, Arise, and be not afraid. 8And lifting up their eyes, they saw no one, save Jesus only.
9And as they were coming down from the mountain, Jesus commanded them, saying, Tell the vision to no man, until the Son of man be risen from the dead. 10And his disciples asked him, saying, Why then say the scribes that Elijah must first come? 11And he answered and said, Elijah indeed cometh, and shall restore all things: 12but I say unto you, that Elijah is come already, and they knew him not, but did unto him whatsoever they would. Even so shall the Son of man also suffer of them. 13Then understood the disciples that he spake unto them of John the Baptist.
14And when they were come to the multitude, there came to him a man, kneeling to him, and saying, 15Lord, have mercy on my son: for he is epileptic, and suffereth grievously; for oft-times he falleth into the fire, and oft-times into the water. 16And I brought him to thy disciples, and they could not cure him. 17And Jesus answered and said, O faithless and perverse generation, how long shall I be with you? how long shall I bear with you? bring him hither to me. 18And Jesus rebuked him; and the demon went out of him: and the boy was cured from that hour.
19Then came the disciples to Jesus apart, and said, Why could not we cast it out? 20And he saith unto them, Because of your little faith: for verily I say unto you, If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, Remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you. 21#17:21 Many authorities, some ancient, insert v. 21. But this kind goeth not out save by prayer and fasting. See Mrk 9:29.
22And while they abode in Galilee, Jesus said unto them, The Son of man shall be delivered up into the hands of men; 23and they shall kill him, and the third day he shall be raised up. And they were exceeding sorry.
24And when they were come to Capernaum, they that received the half-shekel came to Peter, and said, Doth not your teacher pay the half-shekel? 25He saith, Yea. And when he came into the house, Jesus spake first to him, saying, What thinkest thou, Simon? the kings of the earth, from whom do they receive toll or tribute? from their sons, or from strangers? 26And when he said, From strangers, Jesus said unto him, Therefore the sons are free. 27But, lest we cause them to stumble, go thou to the sea, and cast a hook, and take up the fish that first cometh up; and when thou hast opened his mouth, thou shalt find a shekel: that take, and give unto them for me and thee.
