Chronological Bible Part 5

#5-A PARALLEL CHRONOLOGICAL 4 GOSPEL BIBLE WITH INDIVIDUAL VERSES AND PARTS OF VERSES BROKEN DOWN SIDE BY SIDE.

The Chronological 4 Gospels are the accounts of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John, with a few verses from Acts and 1 st Corinthians, combined in a chronological form. This enables a person to read and study all four as a unit. One can read Matthew’s account of an event, and then read the same event in the other gospels. There are certain events that are only presented in one or two gospels, but others are presented in all 4. Now a student of the Bible can read and study how and when all the events occurred in relation to each other. Thus, a person’s knowledge and understanding of God’s Word should increase as the Holy Spirit gives the understanding.

Jn 4:4.   AND (this meant that) HE (HAD TO) GO THROUGH SAMARIA.
Jn 4:5.   THEN (CAME) HE TO A CITY OF SAMARIA, WHICH IS CALLED SYCHAR, NEAR TO THE PARCEL OF GROUND (or field) THAT JACOB GAVE TO HIS SON JOSEPH.
Jn 4:6.   NOW JACOB'S WELL WAS THERE. JESUS THEREFORE, BEING (TIRED) (FROM) HIS JOURNEY, SAT (BY) THE WELL: AND IT WAS ABOUT (NOON).
Jn 4:7.   THERE (CAME) A WOMAN OF SAMARIA TO DRAW WATER: JESUS (SAID) (TO) HER, GIVE ME (A) DRINK (of water).
Jn 4:8.   (FOR HIS DISCIPLES WERE GONE AWAY [INTO] THE [TOWN] TO BUY MEAT [or food].)
Jn 4:9.   THEN (SAID) THE WOMAN OF SAMARIA (TO) HIM, HOW IS IT THAT (YOU), BEING A JEW, (ASK) (a) DRINK OF ME, WHICH AM A WOMAN OF SAMARIA? FOR THE JEWS HAVE NO DEALINGS WITH THE SAMARITANS.
Jn 4:10.   JESUS ANSWERED AND SAID (TO) HER, IF (YOU) (KNEW) THE GIFT OF GOD, AND WHO IT IS THAT (SAID) TO (YOU), GIVE ME (A) DRINK (of water); (then) (YOU) (WOULD) HAVE ASKED OF HIM, AND HE WOULD HAVE GIVEN (YOU) LIVING WATER.
Jn 4:11.   THE WOMAN (SAID) (TO) HIM, SIR, (YOU) (HAVE) NOTHING TO DRAW WITH, AND THE WELL IS DEEP: (so) FROM (WHERE) THEN (CAN) (YOU) (get) THAT LIVING WATER?
Jn 4:12.   (ARE) (YOU) GREATER THAN OUR FATHER JACOB, WHICH GAVE US THE WELL, AND DRANK (OF IT) HIMSELF, AND (also) HIS CHILDREN, AND HIS CATTLE?
Jn 4:13.   JESUS ANSWERED AND SAID (TO) HER, (WHOEVER) (DRINKS) OF THIS WATER SHALL (GET THIRSTY) AGAIN:

Jn 4:14.   BUT (WHOEVER) (DRINKS) OF THE WATER THAT I SHALL GIVE HIM SHALL NEVER THIRST (again); BUT (on the contrary) THE WATER THAT I SHALL GIVE HIM SHALL BE IN (side) HIM A WELL (or fountain) OF WATER SPRINGING UP (TO) EVERLASTING LIFE.
Jn 4:15.   THE WOMAN (SAID) (TO) HIM, SIR, GIVE ME THIS WATER, (so) THAT I THIRST NOT, NEITHER (have to) COME (all the way here-NASB) TO DRAW (water).
Jn 4:16.   JESUS (SAID) (TO) HER, GO, CALL (YOUR) HUSBAND, AND COME (BACK).
Jn 4:17.   THE WOMAN ANSWERED AND SAID, I HAVE NO HUSBAND. JESUS SAID (TO) HER, (YOU) (HAVE) WELL SAID, I HAVE NO HUSBAND:
Jn 4:18.   FOR (the fact is) (YOU) (HAVE) HAD FIVE HUSBANDS (in the past); AND HE (the one) WHOM (YOU) NOW (HAVE) (or the man your living with now-JNT) IS NOT (YOUR) HUSBAND: IN THAT (YOU’VE SPOKEN THE TRUTH!-JNT).

Jn 4:19.   THE WOMAN (SAID) (TO) HIM, SIR, I PERCEIVE THAT (YOU) (ARE) A PROPHET.
Jn 4:20.   OUR FATHERS WORSHIPED IN THIS MOUNTAIN; (BUT) (YOU) (Jews) SAY, THAT IN JERUSALEM IS THE PLACE WHERE MEN (MUST) WORSHIP.
Jn 4:21.   JESUS (SAID) (TO) HER, WOMAN, BELIEVE ME, THE (TIME) (IS COMING), WHEN (YOU) SHALL NEITHER IN THIS MOUNTAIN, NOR YET AT JERUSALEM, WORSHIP THE FATHER.
Jn 4:22.   (YOU) (Samaritans) WORSHIP (that) (YOU) (DO NOT KNOW): WE KNOW WHAT WE WORSHIP: FOR SALVATION IS OF THE JEWS.
Jn 4:23.   BUT THE (TIME) (IS COMING) AND NOW IS (come), WHEN THE TRUE WORSHIPPERS SHALL WORSHIP THE FATHER IN SPIRIT AND IN TRUTH (or spiritually and truly): FOR THE FATHER (WANTS) (THESE) (kind of people) TO WORSHIP HIM.

GOD IS A SPIRIT
30 YEARS PLUS 8 MONTHS

Jn 4:24.   GOD IS A SPIRIT: AND THEY THAT WORSHIP HIM MUST WORSHIP HIM IN SPIRIT AND IN TRUTH (or spiritually and truly).
Jn 4:25.   THE WOMAN (SAID) (TO) HIM, I KNOW THAT (MESSIAH) (IS COMING), WHICH IS CALLED CHRIST (that is, “the One Who has been anointed”-JNT): WHEN HE IS COME, HE WILL (EXPLAIN TO) US ALL THINGS.
Jn 4:26.   JESUS (SAID) (TO) HER, I THAT SPEAK (TO) (YOU) AM HE.
Jn 4:27.   AND (AT THIS POINT) CAME HIS DISCIPLES, AND (they) (WERE SURPRISED) THAT HE TALKED WITH THE WOMAN: YET NO MAN SAID, WHAT (DO YOU WANT)? OR, WHY (SPEAK) (YOU) WITH HER?
Jn 4:28.   THE WOMAN THEN LEFT HER WATERPOT, AND WENT HER WAY INTO THE (TOWN), AND (SAID) TO THE (PEOPLE),
Jn 4:29.   COME, SEE A MAN, WHICH TOLD ME ALL THINGS THAT EVER I DID: IS NOT THIS THE CHRIST (or Messiah)?

Jn 4:30. THEN THEY WENT OUT OF THE (TOWN), AND CAME (TO) HIM.
Jn 4:31. IN THE MEAN WHILE HIS DISCIPLES (WERE REQUESTING) HIM, SAYING, MASTER (or Rabbi), EAT (something).

Jn 4:32. BUT HE SAID (TO) THEM, I HAVE (FOOD) TO EAT THAT (YOU) KNOW (NOTHING ABOUT).
Jn 4:33. THEREFORE SAID THE DISCIPLES ONE TO ANOTHER, (HAS) ANY MAN BROUGHT HIM (ANYTHING) TO EAT?

Jn 4:34.   JESUS (SAID) (TO) THEM, MY (FOOD) IS TO DO THE WILL OF HIM THAT SENT ME (or to do what the One Who sent Me wants-JNT), AND TO FINISH HIS WORK.
Jn 4:35.   (DO YOU NOT SAY-NIV), THERE ARE (STILL) FOUR MONTHS (more), AND THEN (COMES) (the) HARVEST? BEHOLD, I SAY (TO) YOU, (OPEN) UP YOUR EYES, AND LOOK ON THE FIELDS; FOR THEY ARE WHITE (or ripe) ALREADY TO HARVEST.
Jn 4:36.   AND HE THAT (REAPS) (RECEIVES) WAGES, AND (HARVESTS THE CROP) (FOR) LIFE ETERNAL: (so) THAT BOTH HE THAT (SOWS) AND HE THAT (REAPS) MAY (BE GLAD) TOGETHER.
Jn 4:37.   AND (IN THIS) IS THAT SAYING TRUE, ONE (SOWS), AND ANOTHER (REAPS).
Jn 4:38.   I SENT YOU TO REAP THAT WHEREON (YOU) BESTOWED NO LABOR: (for) OTHER MEN (have) (DONE THE HARD WORK-NIV), AND (YOU) (HAVE BENEFITED FROM) THEIR (LABORS).
Jn 4:39.   AND MANY OF THE SAMARITANS OF THAT (TOWN) BELIEVED (or put their trust) (IN) HIM (BECAUSE) (of) THE (WORD) OF THE WOMAN, WHICH TESTIFIED, HE TOLD ME ALL (the things) THAT (I HAVE DONE).
Jn 4:40.   SO WHEN THE SAMARITANS WERE COME (TO) HIM, THEY (URGED) HIM THAT HE WOULD (STAY) WITH THEM: AND HE (STAYED) THERE TWO (more) DAYS.
Jn 4:41.   AND MANY MORE BELIEVED (or came to trust) BECAUSE OF HIS OWN WORD;
Jn 4:42.   AND (they) SAID (TO) THE WOMAN, NOW WE BELIEVE (or trust), NOT BECAUSE OF (WHAT YOU SAID): FOR WE HAVE HEARD HIM OURSELVES, AND KNOW THAT THIS (Man) IS INDEED THE CHRIST, THE SAVIOR OF THE WORLD.

FROM SAMARIA TO THE GALILEE
30 YEARS PLUS 8 MONTHS

Jn 4:43 (pt 1). NOW AFTER TWO DAYS HE DEPARTED (FROM THERE),

Jn 4:43 (pt 2). AND WENT IN

Jn 4:43 (pt 3). TO (the) GALILEE.

NOBLEMAN’S SON HEALED
30 YEARS PLUS 8 MONTHS

Jn 4:44.   FOR JESUS HIMSELF TESTIFIED, THAT A PROPHET (HAS) NO HONOR (or is not respected) IN HIS OWN COUNTRY.
Jn 4:45.   THEN WHEN HE WAS COME INTO GALILEE, THE GALILAEANS RECEIVED HIM, HAVING SEEN ALL THE THINGS THAT HE DID AT JERUSALEM AT THE FEAST (or festival, or Passover): FOR THEY ALSO (HAD GONE) (TO) THE FEAST (there).
Jn 4:46.   SO JESUS CAME AGAIN INTO CANA OF GALILEE, WHERE HE MADE THE WATER WINE. AND THERE WAS A CERTAIN NOBLEMAN (or officer in the royal service-JNT), WHOSE SON WAS SICK AT CAPERNAUM.
Jn 4:47.   WHEN HE HEARD THAT JESUS WAS COME OUT OF (JUDEA) INTO (the) GALILEE, HE WENT (TO) HIM, AND (BEGGED) HIM THAT HE WOULD COME DOWN, AND HEAL HIS SON: FOR HE WAS AT THE POINT OF DEATH.
Jn 4:48.   THEN SAID JESUS (TO) HIM, EXCEPT (YOU PEOPLE) SEE SIGNS AND WONDERS (or miracles), (YOU) (simply) WILL (NEVER) BELIEVE (or trust).
Jn 4:49.   THE NOBLEMAN (or royal officer) (SAID) (TO) HIM, SIR, COME DOWN (BEFORE) MY CHILD DIE.
Jn 4:50.   JESUS (SAID) (TO) HIM, GO (YOUR) WAY; (YOUR) SON (WILL LIVE). AND THE MAN BELIEVED THE WORD THAT JESUS HAD SPOKEN (TO) HIM, AND HE (DEPARTED).
Jn 4:51.   AND AS HE WAS NOW GOING DOWN (on the way), HIS SERVANTS (or slaves) MET HIM, AND TOLD HIM, SAYING, (YOUR) SON (LIVES).
Jn 4:52.   THEN INQUIRED HE OF THEM THE HOUR WHEN HE BEGAN TO (GET BETTER). AND THEY SAID (TO) HIM, YESTERDAY AT THE SEVENTH HOUR (or one o’clock in the afternoon-JNT) THE FEVER LEFT HIM.
Jn 4:53.   SO THE FATHER KNEW THAT IT WAS AT THE SAME HOUR, IN THE WHICH JESUS SAID (TO) HIM, (YOUR) SON (LIVES): AND (so) (he) HIMSELF BELIEVED (or trusted), AND HIS WHOLE HOUSE (hold).
Jn 4:54.   THIS IS AGAIN THE SECOND MIRACLE (or sign) THAT JESUS DID, WHEN HE WAS COME OUT OF (JUDEA) INTO GALILEE.
