He then said to his disciple, “Look, here is your mother!” From that very time ¹  the disciple took her into his own home.

“A disciple is not greater than his teacher, nor a slave ¹  greater than his master.

Whoever does not carry his own cross ¹  and follow ²  me cannot be my disciple.

They ¹  heaped insults ²  on him, saying, ³  “You are his disciple! ⁴  We are disciples of Moses!

Then Peter and the other disciple set out to go to the tomb. ¹ 

Simon Peter and another disciple followed them as they brought Jesus to Annas. ¹  (Now the other disciple ²  was acquainted with the high priest, and he went with Jesus into the high priest’s courtyard.) ³ 

Peter turned around and saw the disciple whom Jesus loved following them. ¹  (This was the disciple ²  who had leaned back against Jesus’ ³  chest at the meal and asked, ⁴  “Lord, who is the one who is going to betray you?”) ⁵ 

A disciple ¹  is not greater than ²  his teacher, but everyone when fully trained will be like his teacher.

So Simon Peter ¹  gestured to this disciple ²  to ask Jesus ³  who it was he was referring to. ⁴ 

Then the disciple whom Jesus loved ¹  leaned back against Jesus’ chest and asked him, “Lord, who is it?”

The two were running together, but the other disciple ran faster than Peter ¹  and reached the tomb first. ² 

Then the other disciple, who had reached the tomb first, came in, and he saw and believed. ¹ 

Now ¹  when it was evening, there came a rich man from Arimathea, named Joseph, who was also a disciple of Jesus. ² 

John answered, ¹  “Master, we saw someone casting out demons in your name, and we tried to stop ²  him because he is not a disciple ³  along with us.”

In the same way therefore not one of you can be my disciple if he does not renounce all his own possessions. ¹ 

So when Jesus saw his mother and the disciple whom he loved standing there, he said to his mother, “Woman, ¹  look, here is your son!”

This is the disciple who testifies about these things and has written these things, and we know that his testimony is true.

Now there was a disciple in Damascus named Ananias. The ¹  Lord ²  said to him in a vision, “Ananias,” and he replied, “Here I am, ³  Lord.”

Now in Joppa ¹  there was a disciple named Tabitha (which in translation means ²  Dorcas). ³  She was continually doing good deeds and acts of charity. ⁴ 

It is enough for the disciple to become like his teacher, and the slave like his master. If they have called the head of the house ‘Beelzebul,’ how much more will they defame the members of his household!
