Yeshua begins his ministry

Mat 4:12–17

4:12 Yeshua begins his ministry

(Mark 1:14-15; Luke 4:14-15)

12 When Yeshua (Jesus; Grk. Yesus) heard that Yohan (John; Grk. Yoannes) had been arrested,[ref] he withdrew up to Galil. 13 Then he moved from Nazaret (Nazareth) across to Kafarnaoum (Capernaum) beside the lake,[ref] in the regions that had been given to the tribes of Zevulun and Naftali (Naphtali), 14 so that what had been written by the prophet Yeshayah (Isaiah) would come true,

15 ‘Land of Zevulun and land of Naftali,

the way of the sea beyond the Yarden (Jordan) river;

Galil of the non-Jews.

16 The people sitting in darkness

saw a powerful light,

and those sitting in a land under the shadow of death

had a light rise over them.’[ref]

17 From then onwards, Yeshua (Jesus; Grk. Yesus) started preaching and telling people to turn from their sins because the heavenly kingdom is close.[ref]

14 in_order_that the message may_be_fulfilled having_been_spoken by Aʸsaias/(Yəshaˊyāh) the prophet saying,
15 Land of_Zaboulōn and land of_Nefthaleim, way of_the_sea, beyond the Yordanaʸs/(Yardēn), Galilaia of_the pagans.

Mark 1:14–15

1:14 The selection of the first followers/apprentices

(Mat. 4:12-22; Luke 4:14-15; 5:1-11)

14 After Yohan (John; Grk. Yoannes) had been arrested, Yeshua (Jesus; Grk. Yesus) went back up north to Galil, announcing the good news from God 15 saying, “The promised time is here, and God’s kingdom is now near. Turn from your sins and believe this good news.”[ref]
