Concept

Jesus Said

Intro

This is a complete catalog of every Bible passage in which Jesus Christ speaks, organized by book and chapter. Every entry links to that passage's page in the codex, so you can read the verse text in four translations side by side and see what Jesus said in context. The catalog covers Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, the post-resurrection appearances in Acts, and Christ's direct speech in Revelation. It's the search-anchor for any "did Jesus say X?" or "where did Jesus say Y?" question.

In full

The Christian tradition treats Christ's recorded sayings as the climactic word of God to humanity. Hebrews 1:1-2 frames the canonical case: God spoke through the prophets in many ways, but "in these last days He has spoken to us in His Son." John 1:1 and John 1:14 identify the Son as the Logos, the Word of God in person, who "became flesh and dwelt among us." On this view, what Jesus said is not just teaching; it is divine speech. Red-letter Bibles (Louis Klopsch's 1899 innovation in the Red Letter New Testament) print Christ's quoted words in red ink to mark this theological weight. This catalog lists every passage in the codex where Jesus speaks directly, following the standard red-letter conventions (Scofield, Thompson Chain, and others).

How to use this catalog

• Click any verse reference to open that passage's page in the codex, where you'll see the verse text in four public-domain translations (ASV, WEB, KJV, YLT) plus key-word and cross-reference annotations.
• Italicised notes identify major discourses (Sermon on the Mount, Olivet Discourse, Bread of Life Discourse, Upper Room Discourse, the seven I AM sayings, the Great Commission, and so on).
• Christ-speech is rendered in red on each passage page so the actual quoted words stand out from surrounding narration.
