The call of Levi (Matthew)
See them side by side
Mark 2:13-17
13And he went out again beside the sea; and all the crowd was coming to him, and he was teaching them. 14And as he passed by, he saw Levi the son of Alphaeus sitting at the tax booth, and he says to him, “Follow me.” And he got up and followed him. 15And it happens that he is reclining at table in his house, and many tax collectors and sinners were reclining with Jesus and his disciples; for there were many, and they were following him. 16And the scribes of the Pharisees, seeing that he was eating with the sinners and tax collectors, were saying to his disciples, “Why does he eat with the tax collectors and sinners?” 17And hearing it, Jesus says to them, “Those who are well have no need of a doctor, but those who are sick. I did not come to call the righteous, but sinners.”
9And passing on from there, Jesus saw a man named Matthew sitting at the tax booth; and he says to him, “Follow me.” And he got up and followed him. 10And it happened, as he was reclining at table in the house, that look, many tax collectors and sinners came and were reclining with Jesus and his disciples. 11And seeing this, the Pharisees were saying to his disciples, “Why does your teacher eat with the tax collectors and sinners?” 12But he, hearing it, said, “The healthy have no need of a doctor, but those who are ill. 13So go and learn what this means: ‘I desire mercy, and not sacrifice.’ For I did not come to call the righteous, but sinners.”
27And after this he went out and saw a tax collector named Levi sitting at the tax booth, and he said to him, “Follow me.” 28And leaving behind everything, he got up and began following him. 29And Levi gave a great banquet for him in his house; and there was a large crowd of tax collectors and others who were reclining at table with them. 30And the Pharisees and their scribes were grumbling to his disciples, saying, “Why do you eat and drink with the tax collectors and sinners?” 31And Jesus answered and said to them, “Those who are well have no need of a doctor, but those who are sick. 32I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners to a change of mind.”
