Bible: Matthew 2:1,23; 3:1,5,13

The Visit of the Wise Men

2:1 After Jesus was born in Bethlehem 1  in Judea, in the time 2  of King Herod, 3  wise men 4  from the East came to Jerusalem 5  2:23 He came to a town called Nazareth 6  and lived there. Then what had been spoken by the prophets was fulfilled, that Jesus 7  would be called a Nazarene. 8 

The Temptation and the Fall

3:1 Now 1  the serpent 2  was more shrewd 3 

than any of the wild animals 4  that the Lord God had made. He said to the woman, “Is it really true that 5  God 6  said, ‘You must not eat from any tree of the orchard? 7  3:5 for God knows that when you eat from it your eyes will open 8  and you will be like divine beings who know 9  good and evil.” 10 

3:13 So the Lord God said to the woman, “What is this 11  you have done?” And the woman replied, “The serpent 12  tricked 13  me, and I ate.”
