2 and He answering said to them, “Evening having come, you say, Fair weather, for the sky is red, He answered them, “When it is evening, you say, ‘It will be fair weather, for the sky is red.’ He replied, “When evening comes, you say, ‘It will be fair weather, for the sky is red,’
3 and at morning, Foul weather today, for the sky is red—gloomy; hypocrites, you indeed know to discern the face of the sky, but the signs of the times you are not able! And in the morning, ‘It will be stormy today, for the sky is red and threatening.’ You know how to interpret the appearance of the sky, but you cannot interpret the signs of the times. and in the morning, ‘Today it will be stormy, for the sky is red and overcast.’ You know how to interpret the appearance of the sky, but you cannot interpret the signs of the times.
4 An evil and adulterous generation seeks a sign, and a sign will not be given to it, except the sign of Jonah the prophet”; and having left them He went away.

7 and they were reasoning in themselves, saying, “Because we took no loaves.” And they began discussing it among themselves, saying, “We brought no bread.” They discussed this among themselves and said, “It is because we didn’t bring any bread.”
8 And Jesus having known, said to them, “Why reason you in yourselves, you of little faith, because you took no loaves?

Aware of their discussion, Jesus asked, “You of little faith, why are you talking among yourselves about having no bread?
9 Do you not yet understand, nor remember the five loaves of the five thousand, and how many hand-baskets you took up? Do you not yet perceive?

Don’t you remember the five loaves for the five thousand, and how many basketfuls you gathered?
10 Nor the seven loaves of the four thousand, and how many baskets you took up? Or the seven loaves for the four thousand, and how many baskets you gathered? Or the seven loaves for the four thousand, and how many basketfuls you gathered?
11 How do you not understand that I did not speak to you of bread—to take heed of the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees?” How is it that you fail to understand that I did not speak about bread?

You are a stumbling block to me; you do not have in mind the concerns of God, but merely human concerns.”
24 Then Jesus said to His disciples, “If anyone wills to come after Me, let him disown himself, and take up his cross, and follow Me, Then Jesus told his disciples, “If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me.

What good will it be for someone to gain the whole world, yet forfeit their soul? Or what can anyone give in exchange for their soul?
