14 Now about the midst of the feast Jesus went up into the temple, and taught. |
15 And the Jews marvelled, saying, How knoweth this man letters, having never learned? |
16 Jesus answered them, and said, My doctrine is not mine, but his that sent me. |
17 If any man will do his will, he shall know of the doctrine, whether it be of God, or whether I speak of myself. |
18 He that speaketh of himself seeketh his own glory: but he that seeketh his glory 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 keepeth the law? Why go ye about to kill me? |
20 The people answered and said, Thou hast a devil: who goeth about to kill thee? |
21 Jesus answered and said unto them, I have done one work, and ye all marvel. |
22 Moses therefore gave unto you circumcision; (not because it is of Moses, but of the fathers;) and ye on the sabbath day circumcise a man. |
23 If a man on the sabbath day receive circumcision, that the law of Moses should not be broken; are ye angry at me, because I have made a man every whit whole on the sabbath day? |
24 Judge not according to the appearance, but judge righteous judgment. |
25 Then said some of them of Jerusalem, Is not this he, whom they seek to kill? |
26 But, lo, he speaketh boldly, and they say nothing unto him. Do the rulers know indeed that this is the very Christ? |
27 Howbeit we know this man whence he is: but when Christ cometh, no man knoweth whence he is. |
28 Then cried Jesus in the temple as he taught, saying, Ye both know me, and ye know whence I am: and I am not come of myself, but he that sent me is true, whom ye know not. |
29 But I know him: for I am from him, and he hath sent me. |
30 Then they sought to take him: but no man laid hands on him, because his hour was not yet come. |
