| 1 And after these things Jesus walked in Galilee: for he would not walk in Judea, because the Jews sought to kill him. |
|
| 2 Now the feast of the Jews, the feast of tabernacles, was at hand. |
|
| 3 His brethren therefore said unto him, Depart hence, and go into Judea, that thy disciples also may behold thy works which thou doest. |
|
| 4 For no man doeth anything in secret, and himself seeketh to be known openly. If thou doest these things, manifest thyself to the world. |
|
| 5 For even his brethren did not believe on him. |
|
| 6 Jesus therefore saith unto them, My time is not yet present; but your time is always ready.
|
|
| 7 The world cannot hate you; but me it hateth, because I testify of it, that its works are evil.
|
|
| 8 Go ye up unto the feast: I go not up unto this feast; because my time is not yet fulfilled.
|
|
| 9 And having said these things unto them, he abode still in Galilee. |
|
| 10 But when his brethren were gone up unto the feast, then went he also up, not publicly, but as it were in secret. |
|
| 11 The Jews therefore sought him at the feast, and said, Where is he? |
|
| 12 And there was much murmuring among the multitudes concerning him: some said, He is a good man; others said, Not so, but he leadeth the multitude astray. |
|
| 13 Yet no man spake openly of him for fear of the Jews. |
|
| 14 But when it was now in the midst of the feast Jesus went up into the temple, and taught. |
|
| 15 The Jews therefore marvelled, saying, How knoweth this man letters, having never learned? |
|
| 16 Jesus therefore answered them, and said, My teaching is not mine, but his that sent me.
|
|
| 17 If any man willeth to do his will, he shall know of the teaching, whether it is of God, or whether I speak from myself.
|
|
| 18 He that speaketh from himself seeketh his own glory: but he that seeketh the glory of him that sent him, the same is true, and no unrighteousness is in him.
|
|
| 19 Did not Moses give you the law, and yet none of you doeth the law? Why seek ye to kill me?
|
|
| 20 The multitude answered, Thou hast a demon: who seeketh to kill thee? |
|
| 21 Jesus answered and said unto them, I did one work, and ye all marvel because thereof.
|
|
| 22 Moses hath given you circumcision (not that it is of Moses, but of the fathers); and on a sabbath ye circumcise a man.
|
|
| 23 If a man receiveth circumcision on a sabbath, that the law of Moses may not be broken; are ye wroth with me because I made a man every whit whole on the sabbath?
|
|
| 24 Judge not according to appearance, but judge righteous judgment.
|
|
| 25 Some therefore of them of Jerusalem said, Is not this he whom they seek to kill? |
|
| 26 And lo, he speaketh openly, and they say nothing unto him. Can it be that the rulers indeed know that this is the Christ? |
|
| 27 Howbeit we know this man whence he is: but when Christ cometh, no one knoweth whence he is. |
|
| 28 Jesus therefore cried in the temple, teaching and saying, Ye both know me, and know whence I am; and I am not come of myself, but he that sent me is true, whom ye know not.
|
|
| 29 I know him; because I am from him, and he sent me.
|
|
| 30 They sought therefore to take him: and no man laid his hand on him, because his hour was not yet come. |
|
| 31 But of the multitude many believed on him; and they said, When the Christ shall come, will he do more signs than those which this man hath done? |
|
| 32 The Pharisees heard the multitude murmuring these things concerning him; and the chief priests and the Pharisees sent attendants to take him. |
|
| 33 Jesus therefore said, Yet a little while am I with you, and I go unto him that sent me.
|
|
| 34 Ye shall seek me, and shall not find me: and where I am, ye cannot come.
|
|
| 35 The Jews therefore said among themselves, Whither will this man go that we shall not find him? will he go unto the Dispersion among the Greeks, and teach the Greeks? |
|
| 36 What is this word that he said, Ye shall seek me, and shall not find me; and where I am, ye cannot come? |
|
| 37 Now on the last day, the great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried, saying, If any man thirst, let him come unto me and drink.
|
|
| 38 He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, from within him shall flow rivers of living water.
|
|
| 39 But this spake he of the spirit, which they that believed on him were to receive: for the spirit was not yet given; because Jesus was not yet glorified. |
|
| 40 Some of the multitude therefore, when they heard these words, said, This is of a truth the prophet. |
|
| 41 Others said, This is the Christ. But some said, What, doth the Christ come out of Galilee? |
|
| 42 Hath not the scripture said that the Christ cometh of the seed of David, and from Bethlehem, the village where David was? |
|
| 43 So there arose a division in the multitude because of him. |
|
| 44 And some of them would have taken him; but no man laid hands on him. |
|
| 45 The attendants therefore came to the chief priests and Pharisees; and they said unto them, Why did ye not bring him? |
|
| 46 The attendants answered, Never man so spake. |
|
| 47 The Pharisees therefore answered them, Are ye also led astray? |
|
| 48 Hath any of the rulers believed on him, or of the Pharisees? |
|
| 49 But this multitude that knoweth not the law are accursed. |
|
| 50 Nicodemus saith unto them (he that came to him before, being one of them), |
|
| 51 Doth our law judge the man except it first hear from himself and know what he doeth? |
|
| 52 They answered and said unto him, Art thou also of Galilee? Search, and see that out of Galilee ariseth no prophet. |
