¹⁰ And they kept the saying, questioning among themselves what the coming back from the dead might be.

¹¹ And his brothers were full of envy; but his father kept his words in mind.

²⁹ His disciples said, Now you are talking clearly and not in veiled language.

³⁰ Now we are certain that you have knowledge of all things and have no need for anyone to put questions to you: through this we have faith that you came from God.

¹⁷ So some of the disciples said one to another, What is this he is saying, After a little time, you will see me no longer; and then again, after a little time, you will see me? and, I am going to the Father?

¹⁸ So they said again and again, What is this he is saying, A little time? His words are not clear to us.

¹⁹ Jesus saw that they had a desire to put the question to him, so he said to them, Is this what you are questioning one with another, why I said, After a little time, you will see me no longer; and then again, after a little time, you will see me?

³³ (This he said, pointing to the sort of death he would have.)

³⁴ Then the people in answer said to him, The law says that the Christ will have life without end: how say you then that it is necessary for the Son of man to be lifted up? Who is this Son of man?

¹⁶ (These things were not clear to his disciples at first: but when Jesus had been lifted up into his glory, then it came to their minds that these things in the Writings were about him and that they had been done to him.)

¹⁹ And Jesus said to them, Send destruction on this Temple and I will put it up again in three days.

²⁰ The Jews said, The building of this Temple took forty-six years; and you will put it up in three days!

²¹ But his words were about that holy building which was his body.

²² So when he had come back again from the dead, the memory of these words came back to the disciples, and they had faith in the holy Writings and in the word which Jesus had said.

²⁵ And he said, O foolish men! how slow you are to give belief to what the prophets have said.

²⁶ Was it not necessary for the Christ to go through these things, and to come into his glory?

²⁷ And he made clear to them all the things in the Writings, from Moses and from all the prophets, which had to do with himself.

⁷ The Son of man will be given up into the hands of evil-doers, and be put to death on the cross, and on the third day he will come back to life.

⁸ And his words came back into their minds,

³³ And he will be given cruel blows and put to death, and on the third day he will come back to life.

³⁴ But they did not take in the sense of any of these words, and what he said was not clear to them, and their minds were not able to see it.

⁵⁰ And his words seemed strange to them.

⁵¹ And he went down with them and came to Nazareth; and did as he was ordered: and his mother kept all these words in her heart.

³² But the saying was not clear to them, and they were in fear of questioning him about it.

²² And Peter, protesting, said to him, Be it far from you, Lord; it is impossible that this will come about.

¹⁸ And some of those who were supporters of the theories of the Epicureans and the Stoics, had a meeting with him. And some said, What is this talker of foolish words saying? And others, He seems to be a preacher of strange gods: because he was preaching of Jesus and his coming back from the dead.
