Luke 11:29–36

Christ’s Only Sign is Jonah

Matt. 12:39–42

^29uAnd while the crowds were thickly gathered together, He began to say, “This is an evil generation. It seeks a ^vsign, and no sign will be given to it except the sign of Jonah ⁸the prophet. ³⁰For as ^wJonah became a sign to the Ninevites, so also the Son of Man will be to this generation. ^31xThe queen of the South will rise up in the judgment with the men of this generation and condemn them, for she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and indeed a ^ygreater than Solomon is here. ³²The men of Nineveh will rise up in the judgment with this generation and condemn it, for ^zthey repented at the preaching of Jonah; and indeed a greater than Jonah is here.

Parable of the Lighted Lamp

^33a“No one, when he has lit a lamp, puts it in a secret place or under a ^bbasket, but on a lampstand, that those who come in may see the light. ^34cThe lamp of the body is the eye. Therefore, when your eye is ⁹good, your whole body also is full of light. But when your eye is ¹bad, your body also is full of darkness. ³⁵Therefore take heed that the light which is in you is not darkness. ³⁶If then your whole body is full of light, having no part dark, the whole body will be full of light, as when the bright shining of a lamp gives you light.”
