John - ch 7 v 21 - 40
- 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?
- Don't judge according to appearance, but judge righteous judgment."
- Therefore some of them of Jerusalem said, "Isn't this 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."
- Jesus therefore cried out in the temple, teaching and saying, "You both know me, and know where I am from. I have not come of myself, but he who sent me is true, whom you don't know.
- I know him, because I am from him, and he sent me."
- They sought therefore to take him; but no one laid a hand on him, because his hour had not yet come.
- But of the multitude, many believed in him. They said, "When the Christ comes, he won't do more signs than those which this man has done, will he?"
- The Pharisees heard the multitude murmuring these things concerning him, and the chief priests and the Pharisees sent officers to arrest him.
- Then Jesus said, "I will be with you a little while longer, then I go to him who sent me.
- You will seek me, and won't find me; and where I am, you can't come."
- The Jews therefore said among themselves, "Where will this man go that we won't find him? Will he go to the Dispersion among the Greeks, and teach the Greeks?
- What is this word that he said, 'You will seek me, and won't find me; and where I am, you can't come'?"
- Now on the last and greatest day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried out, "If anyone is thirsty, let him come to me and drink!
- He who believes in me, as the Scripture has said, from within him will flow rivers of living water."
- 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 wasn't yet glorified.
- Many of the multitude therefore, when they heard these words, said, "This is truly the prophet."
