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”
