But when it was already the middle of the feast, Jesus went up to the Temple and began to teach. "I have given them thy word; and the world has hated them because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.

The crowd answered. "You have a demon! Who is trying kill you?"

"And look! he is speaking boldly and they are saying nothing to him. Can it possibly be that the rulers have really discovered that he is the Christ?

and they asked them, "Why have you not brought him?"

"Surely you have not been led astray, have you? answered the Pharisees.

Once more Jesus addressed them. "I am the light of the world," he said; "He who follows me shall not walk in the darkness, but he shall have the Light of life."

In reply Jesus said to them. "Even if I do bear testimony to concerning myself, my testimony is true, because I know where I have come from and where I am going. But you do not know where I have come from, or where I am going.

"Where is your Father?" they asked him. "You have neither known me nor my Father," answered Jesus. "If you had known me, you would have known my father also."

"I have many things to say and to judge concerning you. But he who sent me is true, and I speak to the world only those things which I have heard from him."

"We are descendants of Abraham," they replied, "and have never been in slavery to any man. What do you mean by saying, 'You shall become free'?"

"I am declaring what I have seen with the Father, and you are acting as you have learned from your father."

"You are doing the deeds of your father." "We were not born of adultery," they said; "we have one Father, God."

In reply the Jews said to him, "Are we not right in saying that you are a Samaritan, and you also have a demon?"

"I do not have a demon," said Jesus, "but I am honoring my Father, and you are dishonoring me.

"Now we know that you have a demon," exclaimed the Jews. Abraham died, and so did the prophets; and yet you say, 'If any man obeys my teaching he shall never taste death.'

"You are not yet fifty years old," said the Jews to him, "and you have seen Abraham?"

So there was a difference of opinion among them. Accordingly they said to the blind man, "What have you to say about him, now that he has opened your eyes?" "He is a prophet," he answered.

He answered. "I have told you already, and you did not listen. Why do you wish to hear it again? Can it be that you, too, wish to become his disciples?"

"If this man had not come of God he could have done nothing."

"You have already seen him," Jesus answered, "and it is he who now speaks to you."

"If you were blind," Jesus answered them, "you would have no sin. But now you are declaring, 'We see'; so your sin remains.

"The thief never comes except to steal and kill and destroy. I am come that they may have life, and may have it in abundance.

"I have other sheep also, which do not belong to this fold. I must bring them too, and they will listen to my voice, and they will become one flock, one shepherd.

"No man is taking it away from me. I am laying it down on my own accord. I have authority to lay it down, and I have authority to take it again. I received this commandment from my Father."

Jesus answered them. "I have told you, and you do not believe. The works which I am doing in my Father's name, these bear witness concerning me.

"I have shown you many good deeds from my Father. For which of these are you going to stone me?"

Then Martha said to Jesus. "Master, had you been here my brother would not have died;

"Yes, Master," she answered, "I have come to believe that you are the Christ, the Son of God, who was to come into the world."

When Mary came to the place where Jesus was, and saw him, she fell at his feet, saying, "Master had you been here, my brother would not have died."

"Where have you laid him?" he said: "Master, come and see," they answered.

"Could not this man, who has opened the eyes of the blind man, have prevented this man also from dying?"

for the poor you have with you always, but me you have not always."

Father, glorify thy name!" Whereupon there came a voice from heaven, saying, "I have both glorified it, and will glorify it again."

Then the people answered. "We have heard out of the Law that the Christ abides forever. What do you mean by 'The Son of man must be lifted up'? Who is this Son of man?"

"The Light is among you a little longer," answered Jesus. "Walk while you have the Light, lest darkness overtake you. He who walks in the darkness does not know where he is going.

While you have the Light, believe in the Light, so that you may become Sons of Light."

He who rejects me, and does not receive my words, has indeed a judge. The message which I have spoken, that shall judge him in the Last Day,

because I have never spoken on my own authority, but the Father himself who sent me gave me commandment what to say and what words to speak.

Peter answered, "No, never shall you wash my feet." "If I do not wash you," said Jesus, "you have no part in me."

Jesus said: "He who has bathed needs only to have his feet washed, and he is altogether clean; and you are clean, but not all of you."

"Do you understand what I have been doing to you? You call me 'Teacher' and 'Master', and you say well, for such I am.

If then I have washed your feet, I the 'Master' and the 'Teacher', you also ought to wash one another's feet,

for I have given you an example, that you also should do what I have done to you.

I do not speak concerning all of you. I know whom I have chosen, but it is that the Scripture may be fulfilled, which says. "He who eats my bread has lifted up his heel against me.

By this shall all men know that you are my disciples, if you have love one for another."

"Your life you will lay down for me? In solemn truth I tell you, the cock shall not crow before you have three times disowned me."

In my Father's house there are many rooms If it were not so, would I have told you that I went to prepare a place for you?

If you had known me, you would have known my Father too; from now on you know him and have seen him."

"Have I been so long among you, and yet you, Philip, have you not recognized me? He who has seen me has seen the Father. How can you say, 'Cause us to see the Father'?

"But the Comforter, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you everything, and bring to your remembrance everything that I have told you.

"You heard me tell you, 'I am going away, and yet I am coming to you.' If you loved me you would have been glad because I said 'I am going to the Father,' for my Father is greater than I.

"Now you are clean through the word which I have spoken to you.

"As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you; abide in my love.

"If you obey my commands you will abide in my love, just as I have obeyed my Father's commands and abide in his love.

"I have told you these things that my joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be full.

"This is my command, Love one another as I have loved you.

"I no longer call you slaves, because a slave does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, because I have made known to you everything that I have learned from my Father.

"If you belonged to the world, the world would love its own; but because you do not belong to the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, for that reason the world hates you.

"Remember what I told you, 'A slave is not better than his master.' If they persecuted me, they will persecute you. If they have obeyed my word, they will obey yours also.

"If I had not come and spoken to them, they would have no sin; but now they have no excuse for their sin.

"If I had not done among them such works as none ever did, they would have had no sin; but now they have both seen and hated both me and my Father.

"and you to shall bear witness because you have been with me from the first.

"I have told you all this so that you may not stumble.

"And they will do these things because they have not known my Father, nor me.

"But I have told you these things, that when the time comes you may remember that I told you about them, myself. I did not, however, speak of these things at first, because I was with you.

"but sorrow has filled your hearts because I have told you these things.

"I have yet many things to say to you, but you cannot bear them just now.

So you also have sorrow now, but I will see you again and your heart will rejoice, and your joy shall no man snatch away from you.

Hitherto you have asked nothing in my name; ask, and you shall receive, that your joy may be full.

"I have told you these things in figures; but the time is coming when I shall no longer speak in figures, but will tell you about the Father in plain words.

for the Father himself loves you, because you have loved me and believed that I came forth from the God.

Now we are sure that you know all things, and have no need for any one to question you; by this we believe that you came forth from God."

I have said all this to you that in me you might have peace. In the world you will have tribulation, but be courageous; I have overcome the world."

I have glorified thee on the earth; I have finished the work which thou gavest me to do.

"I have made known thy name to the men whom thou gavest me out of the world. Thine they were, and thou gavest them to me, and they have kept thy word.

for I have given them the words which thou gavest me; and they have received them, and they have believed that thou didst send me.

"But now I am coming to thee, and I am speaking these things while I am in the world, so that they may have my joy in all its fulness in themselves.

I have given them thy word; and the world has hated them because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.

As thou hast sent me into the world, even so I also have sent them into the world.

And the glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that they may be one even as we are one,

O righteous Father, though the world knew thee not, I have known thee, and these have known that though didst send me.

And I have declared??nd will declare??hy name unto them, that the love with which thou hast loved me may be in them, and that I may be in them."

"I have already told you that I am he," said Jesus. "If, then, you are looking for me, let these go their way."

(In order that the word which he had spoken might be fulfilled, "Of those whom thou hast given me I have not lost one.")

Jesus answered him. "I have spoken to all the world openly. I always taught in a synagogue and in the temple, places where all the Jews are wont to assemble, and in secret I have spoken nothing.

"Why do you question me? Ask those who heard what I have said to them; these witnesses here know what I said."

Jesus replied "If I have said anything wrong, give evidence concerning the wrong; but if I said what was true, why do you strike me?"

In reply they said, "If he had not been a criminal, we should not have handed him over you."

"I am not a Jew, am I?" replied Pilate; "It is your own nation and the high priests who have handed you over to me. What have you done?"

Jesus answered him. "My kingdom is not of this world. If my kingdom were of this world, then would my servants have fought hard that I should not be handed the Jews; but in reality my kingdom is not of such origins."

The Jews answered him, "We have a law, and by that law he ought to die, because he made himself out to be God's Son,"

Jesus made no answer. So Pilate said to him. "Do you not speak to me? Do you not know that I have power to release you, or power to crucify you?"

"You would have no power over me," answered Jesus, "unless it had been given you from above. For this reason he who has betrayed me to you has the greater sin."

Then they shouted. "Away with him! Away with him! Crucify him!" "Crucify your King?" said Pilate. The chief priests answered, "We have no king but Caesar!"

Pilate answered, "What I have written, I have written!"

It was Preparation Day, so in order to prevent the bodies' hanging on the cross during the Sabbath (for the Sabbath was a great day) the Jews begged Pilate to have the legs broken, and the bodies taken away.

And again another Scripture says, They shall look on him whom they have pierced.

So she came running to Simon Peter and that other disciple whom Jesus loved, saying, "They have taken the Master out of the tomb, and we do not know where they have laid him!"

They said to her, "Woman, why are you weeping?" She answered, "Because they have taken away my Master, and I do not know where they have laid him."

Jesus said to her. "Woman, why are you weeping? Whom are you seeking?" She, supposing that he was the gardener, said to him, "Sir, if you have borne him away, tell me where you have put him, and I will take him away, myself."
