And it came to pass, that, as Y'shuw`a sat at meat in his house, many publicans and sinners sat also together with Y'shuw`a and his talmidim: for there were many, and they followed him.
And he came down with them, and stood in the plain, and the company of his talmidim, and a great multitude of people out of all Yhudah and Yerushalayim, and from the sea coast of TZor and TZidon, which came to hear him, and to be healed of their diseases;
And when the scribes and Prushim saw him eat with publicans and sinners, they said unto his talmidim, How is it that he eateth and drinketh with publicans and sinners?
