1. 1 A promise, twice Two annunciations and two songs: an old priest struck silent, a young woman who answers, and Mary's song of a world turned over. Explained
2. 2 Registered, and laid in a trough An emperor's census moves a family to Bethlehem; shepherds are told first, and two old people in the temple recognise the child. Explained
3. 3 Dated by seven rulers The word of God arrives in the desert, not the palace; John answers three groups about money, and a genealogy runs back to Adam. Explained
4. 4 The reading that empties the room Tested in the desert, then home: he reads Isaiah, stops mid-sentence, and names two foreigners God sent prophets to. Explained
5. 5 Leave everything, and follow A night's empty nets fill; a leper is touched, a paralysed man is lowered through a roof, and a tax collector throws a party. Explained
6. 6 Four blessings, four woes Two Sabbath arguments, the choosing of twelve, and a sermon on level ground that blesses the poor and warns the comfortable. Explained
7. 7 Nobody asked for this one A centurion who never appears, a widow's only son stopped on his way to the grave, and a woman who washes his feet at a Pharisee's table. Explained
8. 8 Who paid for the road Named women fund the travelling; then a sower, a storm ordered to stop, and two healings held together by the number twelve. Explained
9. 9 He set his face Five thousand fed, a mountain where his face changes, and the hinge: from here the whole book walks toward Jerusalem. Explained
10. 10 Which of the three became a neighbour Seventy sent out two by two; a lawyer answers his own question, and the story that reverses it puts a Samaritan on the road. Explained
11. 11 Teach us to pray The prayer, a friend who gives in at midnight, and six statements beginning WOE, spoken at a dinner table rather than in public. Explained
12. 12 The barns he never used Five sparrows for two coins and none forgotten; a farmer who says I eleven times and dies that night; ravens, lilies, and a warning about division. Explained
13. 13 Eighteen, three times A massacre he refuses to read as punishment, a fig tree given one more year, and a woman bent for eighteen years straightened on a Sabbath. Explained
14. 14 Invite the ones who cannot repay A whole chapter around a meal: where to sit, whom to ask, a supper nobody comes to, and the hardest sentence in the book. Explained
15. 15 Lost, and found A sheep, a coin and a son: three things lost, three searches, and a father who runs before the speech is finished. Explained
16. 16 The only beggar with a name A manager praised for being shrewd rather than honest, and a rich man who is never accused of anything except having a gate. Explained
17. 17 One came back Ten are cleansed and one returns, and the text keeps for last that he was a Samaritan; then a kingdom that arrives without a date. Explained
18. 18 A widow who would not stop Two prayers, a rich official who cannot let go, a third telling of what waits in Jerusalem that nobody understands, and a blind man who shouts louder. Explained
19. 19 Up a tree, and down again A short, rich, unpopular man repays fourfold; the journey ends on a hill where he weeps over the city instead of entering it in triumph. Explained
20. 20 Every trap answered from a book Authority, a vineyard, Caesar's coin, and a riddle about David: four attempts to catch him, each moved onto ground both sides accept. Explained
21. 21 Everything she had to live on A widow's two coins, then the building they went into described as rubble, and a warning that names armies rather than a sign to decode. Explained
22. 22 Two cups, and a look A supper with a cup before the bread and a cup after; an argument about greatness at that same table; and the Lord turning to look at Peter. Explained
23. 23 Nothing to execute him for Pilate says he finds no fault three times and gives way; one of the two criminals is promised paradise, and the officer calls him righteous. Explained
24. 24 Recognised at the breaking of bread The women are not believed; two walk to Emmaus and know him only when he breaks bread; and the book ends in the temple where it began. Explained
