Matthew 11:20-24
Woe to Unrepentant Cities
20 aThen he began to denounce the cities where most of his mighty works had been done, because they did not repent. 21 b“Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! For if the mighty works done in you had been done in cTyre and Sidon, they would have repented long ago in sackcloth and ashes. 22 dBut I tell you, it will be more bearable on ethe day of judgment for fTyre and Sidon than for you. 23And you, gCapernaum, will you be exalted to heaven? You will be brought down to hHades. For if the mighty works done in you had been done in Sodom, it would have remained until this day. 24 iBut I tell you that jit will be more tolerable on kthe day of judgment for the land of Sodom than for you.”Luke 10:11-16
11 l‘Even the dust of your town that clings to our feet we wipe off against you. Nevertheless know this, that mthe kingdom of God has come near.’ 12I tell you, nit will be more bearable on othat day for Sodom than for that town.Woe to Unrepentant Cities
13 p“Woe to you, Chorazin! Woe to you, Bethsaida! For if the mighty works done in you had been done in qTyre and Sidon, they would have repented long ago, sitting in sackcloth and ashes. 14 rBut it will be more bearable in the judgment for sTyre and Sidon than for you. 15And you, Capernaum, twill you be exalted to heaven? You shall be brought down to uHades.16 v“The one who hears you hears me, and wthe one who rejects you rejects me, and xthe one who rejects me rejects him who sent me.”
Luke 12:47

4 adIn him was life, ▼▼Or was not any thing made. That which has been made was life in him
and afthe life was the light of men. John 1:9-11
9 agThe true light, which gives light to everyone, was coming into the world. 10He was in the world, and the world was made through him, yet ahthe world did not know him. 11He came to aihis own, ▼▼Greek to his own things; that is, to his own domain, or to his own people
and akhis own people ▼▼People is implied in Greek
amdid not receive him. John 8:12
I Am the Light of the World
12 anAgain Jesus spoke to them, saying, ao“I am the light of the world. Whoever apfollows me will not aqwalk in darkness, but will have the light of life.”John 9:39-41
39Jesus said, ar“For judgment I came into this world, asthat those who do not see may see, and atthose who see may become blind.” 40Some of the Pharisees near him heard these things, and said to him, au“Are we also blind?” 41Jesus said to them, “If you were blind, avyou would have no guilt; ▼▼Greek you would not have sin
but now that you say, ‘We see,’ your guilt remains. John 15:22-25
22If I had not come and spoken to them, axthey would not have been guilty of sin, ▼▼Greek they would not have sin; also verse 24
but now they have no excuse for their sin. 23 azWhoever hates me hates my Father also. 24 baIf I had not done among them the works that no one else did, bbthey would not be guilty of sin, but now they have bcseen and hated both me and my Father. 25But bdthe word that is written in their Law must be fulfilled: be‘They hated me without a cause.’
