18:15 Yeshua blesses small children

(Mark 10:13-16, Mat. 19:13-15)

15The people also brought their babies to Yeshua so that he would touch them and bless them, but his apprentices scolded them when they saw it. 16However, Yeshua called out to them, “Let the little children come to me. Don’t stop them because God’s kingdom consists of those like them. 17I can assure you that anyone who doesn’t accept God’s kingdom like a little child, certainly won’t be able to enter it.

10:13 Yeshua encourages childlike faith

(Mat. 19:13-15, Luke 18:15-17)

13The people were bringing small children for Yeshua to touch, but his apprentices scolded them. 14However, Yeshua noticed it and was upset, “Just let those kids come. Don’t prevent them because God’s kingdom consists of people like them. 15[ref]Actually, you can’t even enter God’s kingdom unless you accept it just like a small child does. 16So he continued hugging the children and commanding a good life for them as he placed his hands on each one.


19:13 Yeshua blesses the children

(Mark 10:13-16, Luke 18:15-17)

13Then some small children were brought to Yeshua hoping that he would place his hands on them and pray for them, but the apprentices scolded them. 14But Yeshua intervened, “Be patient with the children and don’t stop them from coming to me, because it’s ones like these that make up the kingdom of the heavens.

15Then after placing his hands on them, he left that place.
