Mattityahu 16:1-10 Orthodox Jewish Bible (OJB)

1. And the Perushim and Tzedukim approached, to test Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach, asking him to present them with an ot (sign) from Shomayim.

2. But in reply, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach said to them, When it is erev, you say, It will be fair weather, for the sky is fiery red.

3. And in the boker (morning) you say, There will be stormy weather today, for the sky is overcast fiery red and threatening. You have daas to distinguish the signs of the appearance of the sky, but you can't discern the signs of the times? [T.N. See Ro 1:18]

4. A dor rah umnaef (an evil and adulterous generation) demands an ot (sign), and no ot will be given it except the ot of Yonah HaNavi. And having left them, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach went away.

5. When the Moshiach's talmidim arrived at the other side, they had forgotten to take lechem.

6. But Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach said to them, Take special precaution against the chametz (swelling leaven) of the Perushim and Tzedukim.

7. But they began reasoning among themselves, saying, We took no lechem.

8. But Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach, aware of their machshavot (thoughts), said, You men of little emunah, why do you reason among yourselves that you have no lechem?

9. Do you not yet have binah or remember the five loaves of the chamesh elafim (five thousand), and how many baskets full you took up?

10. Or the shevah loaves of the arbaat elafim (four thousand), and how many large baskets full you took up?
