Jesus therefore answered them, My Teaching is not mine, but "his-who-sent-me". If anyone desires to do his will, he will know about the Teaching, whether it is from God, or if I AM speaking from myself. He who speaks from himself seeks his own glory, but he who seeks the glory of him who sent him is true, and no unrighteousness is in him. Did not Moses give you the law, And yet none of you "keeps" the law"?

Jesus answered them, I did one work and you all marvel because of it. Moses has given you circumcision (not that it is of Moses but of the fathers), and on the Sabbath you circumcise a boy. If a boy receives circumcision on the Sabbath that the law of Moses may not be broken, are you angry with me because I made a man completely healthy on the "Sabbath"? Do not judge according to appearance, but judge "righteous" judgment.

Therefore some of them of Jerusalem said, Is this not he whom they seek to kill"? Behold, he speaks openly and they say nothing to him. Can it be that the rulers indeed know that this is truly the Christ"? However, we "know" where this man comes from, but when the Christ comes, "no-one" will know where he comes from. (The Christ is the Anointed of God.)

The Pharisees heard the multitude murmuring these things concerning him, and the chief priests and the Pharisees sent officers to arrest him.

But he said this about the Spirit, which those believing in him were to receive. For the Holy Spirit was not yet given, because Jesus was not yet glorified. Many of the multitude therefore, when they heard these words, said, This is truly the Prophet. Others said This is the Christ. But some said, What? does the Christ come out of Galilee"? Has the Scripture not said that the Christ comes of the offspring of David, and from Bethlehem the village where David was”?

Now very early in the morning, he came again into the Temple, and all the people came to him. He sat down and Taught them. The scribes and the Pharisees brought a woman taken in adultery. Having set her in the middle, they told him, Teacher, we found this woman in adultery, in the very act. Now in our law, Moses commanded us to stone such women. What then do you say about her?

They said this testing him, that they might have something to accuse him of. But Jesus stooped down and drew on the ground with his finger. But when they continued asking him, he looked up and said to them, He who is without sin among you, let him throw the first stone "at-her".

Therefore Jesus said to them, If God were your father, you would love me, for I came out and have come from God. For I have not come of myself, but he sent me. Why do you not understand my speech? Because you cannot hear my word. You are of your father, the devil, and you want to do the desires of your father. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks on his own; for he is a liar, and the father of lies. But because I tell the truth, you do not believe me. Which of you convicts me of sin? If I tell the truth, why do you not believe me? He who is of God hears the words of God. For this cause you do not hear, because you are not of God.
