OMITTED TEXT. And there was one man there for thirty-eight years in his infirmity. When Jesus saw him lying there, and knew that he had been there a long time, he said to him, "Do you want to get well?" "Sir," answered the sick man, "I have no man to put me into the pool whenever the water is troubled; and while I am trying to come, some one else steps down before me." "Rise," said Jesus, "take up your bed and go walking away." Instantly the man became well, and he took up his bed and started to walk. Now it was Sabbath on that day; so the Jews kept saying to the man who had been cured. "It is the Sabbath Day; it is not lawful for you to carry your bed." He replied, "The man who healed me told me to take up my bed and walk." "Who is it," they asked, "that said to you, 'take up your bed and go walking away'?" But he who had been healed did not know who it was, for Jesus had moved away, as there was a crowd in that place. Afterward Jesus found him in the Temple, and said to him. "Look! You have become well. Do not go on sinning, lest a worse thing befall you." The man went to and told the Jews that it was Jesus who made him well; and because of this the Jews began to persecute Jesus, because he had done it on the Sabbath. But he answered them, "My Father has continued working until now, and I am working too." For this reason the Jews continued to seek the more eagerly to put him to death, because not only was he breaking the Sabbath, but he was actually speaking of God as his own Father, thus making himself of God's equal.
"I myself am the bread of life," answered Jesus; "he who comes to me shall never hunger, and he that believes on me shall never thirst again.

"For I am come down from heaven, not to do my own will, but the will of him who sent me.

"For this is my Fathers will, that every one who beholds the Son and believes on him, shall have eternal life. and I will raise him up at the last day." Then the Jews began to find fault with Jesus, because he said, "I am the bread which comes down out of heaven," and they kept asking. "Is not this Jesus, the son of Joseph? Do we not know his father and mother? How is it that he now says, 'I have come down from heaven'?"
After these things Jesus continued to travel about in Galilee, for he did not wish to go about in Judea, because the Jews kept trying to kill him.
In reply the Jews said to him, "Are we not right in saying that you are a Samaritan, and you also have a demon?"

"In solemn truth I tell you that if any one obeys my teaching he shall never behold death." "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 greater than our father Abraham, are you? And he died, and the prophets died. Who are you making yourself out to be?" "If I glorify myself." said Jesus, "my glory is nothing. It is my Father that glorifies me, and you say, 'He is our God.' "You are not acquainted with him; I know him. Were I to say, 'I do not know him,' I should be like you, a liar. But I do know him, and I obey his teaching. "Your father Abraham rejoiced that he should see my day; and he saw it and was glad." "You are not yet fifty years old," said the Jews to him, "and you have seen Abraham?" "In solemn truth I tell you," answered Jesus, "that before Abraham came into existence, I am." Then they picked up stones to throw at him, but Jesus hid himself and went out of the Temple.
Now as he was passing along he saw a man, blind from birth. "Rabbi," his disciples asked him, "who sinned, this man or his parents, that he was born blind?" "Neither he nor his parents sinned." replied Jesus; "it happened that the works of God might be made manifest in him.read more.
"I must work the works of him that sent me while it is day; night is coming, when no man can work. "While I am in the world, I am the Light of the world." When he had thus spoken he spat on the ground, and made clay with the spittle, and smeared the clay on the man's eyes. Then he said to him, "Go, wash in the pool of Siloam" (a word which means "sent"). So the man went and washed his eyes, and came back seeing. Upon this the neighbors and those who used to know him by sight as a beggar, began asking, "Is not this the man who used to sit and beg?" Some said, "It is he." Others said, "No, but he looks like him." "I am the man," he said. So they asked him, "How then were your eyes opened?" He answered. "The man who is called Jesus made clay and anointed my eyes, and said to me, 'Go to Siloam and wash'; so I went and washed and received my sight." "Where is he?" they asked. "I do not know," answered the man. Then they brought the man who had been blind to the Pharisees. Now it was on the Sabbath that Jesus had made clay and opened his eyes; so the Pharisees again began to ask him questions about how he had regained his sight; and he said to them, "He put clay on my eyes, and I washed them, and now I see." Then some of the Pharisees began to say, "This man in not from God, because he does not keep the Sabbath." But others said, "How can a man who is a sinner perform such signs?" 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. The Jews, however, did not believe about him that he was blind and had received his sight, until they called the parents of the man whose sight had been restored, and questioned them. "Is this your son," they said, "who you say was born blind? How then does he now see?" Then in reply his parents said: "We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind; "but how he now sees we do not know, nor do we know who has opened his eyes. Ask him, himself. He is of age. He will speak for himself." This his parents said because they were afraid of the Jews, for the Jews had already agreed that if any one should confess that he was the Christ, he should be expelled from the synagogue. It was because this that his parents said: "He is of age. Ask him, himself." So the Jews a second time summoned the man who had been blind, and said to him. "Give glory to God! we know that this man is a sinner." Upon this the blind man answered. "I do not know if he is a sinner. One thing I do know, that once I was blind, and know I can see." "What was it he did to you?" they asked him; "How did he open your eyes?" 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?" Then they stormed at him. "You are his disciple. We are Moses' disciples. "We know that God spoke to Moses. But this fellow! We do not know where he comes from." "This is truly astonishing," said the man in reply, "that you do not know where he is from, and yet he has opened my eyes. "We know that God does not listen to sinners, but if any one is God-fearing and does his will, to such he listens. "Since the beginning of the world such a thing as opening the eyes of one who was born blind was never heard of. "If this man had not come of God he could have done nothing." They answered, "You were wholly born in sins, and do you teach us?" Then they cast him out.
Then came the feast of the Dedication at Jerusalem. It was winter, and Jesus used to walk in the Temple, in Solomon's Portico. Then all the Jews encircled him and kept asking him. "How long are you going to keep us in suspense? If you are the Christ, tell us plainly."read more.
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. "But you do not believe, because you are not of my sheep. "My sheep listen to my voice, and I know them and they follow me. "I am giving them eternal life, and they shall never perish, nor shall any one snatch them out of my hand. "My Father who has given them to me is stronger than all, and no one can snatch them out of my Father's hand. "I and my Father are one." The Jews again took stones with which to stone him. Jesus said to them. "I have shown you many good deeds from my Father. For which of these are you going to stone me?" "We are not going to stone you for a good deed," answered the Jews, "but for blasphemy, because you, a mere man, are making yourself God."
So the troops and their commandant and the Jewish police took Jesus, and bound him, and led him to Annas first. (For Annas was the Father-in-law of Caiaphas, who was the high priest that year??14 the Caiaphas who had advised the Jews that it was for their advantage that one man should die for the people.)
After these things Joseph of Arimathea, who was a disciple of Jesus, but in secret because of fear of the Jews, asked Pilate for permission to take the body of Jesus, and Pilate gave him leave. So he came and took the body.
On the evening of that same day, the first day of the week, although the doors of the room where the disciples gathered had been locked for fear of the Jews, Jesus came, and there he stood among them, saying. "Peace to you!"
They also placed above his head his accusation written, This is Jesus The King of the Jews

And Pilate moreover wrote an inscription and placed it above the cross. What he wrote was, "JESUS, THE NAZARENE, KING OF THE JEWS" This inscription was read by many of the Jews, because the place where they crucified Jesus was near the city, and the inscription was written in Hebrew, Latin, and Greek. So the high priests of the Jews said to Pilate, "Do not write 'King of the Jews,' but 'He said, I am King of the Jews.'"
After the birth of Jesus, which took place at Bethlehem in Judea, during the reign of King Herod, lo! certain Magi arrived in Jerusalem, saying. "Where is the new-born King of the Jews? For we have seen his star in the East, and are come to worship him."
Now Jesus stood before the Governor, and the Governor questioned him. "Are you the King of the Jews?" he asked.
Pilate questioned him, "Are you the King of the Jews?" In reply Jesus said, "It is as you say."
So Pilate went into the Praetorium again, and summoned Jesus. "Are you the King of the Jews?" he said.
Then the soldiers of the Governor took Jesus into the Praetorium, and gathered all the battalion together. They stripped him and put on him a scarlet robe. And they twisted a thorny crown for him, and put it on his head, and placed a reed in his right hand. Then they knelt before him, in mockery, crying, "Hail, King of the Jews!"read more.
And they spit upon him, and took the reed and struck him on the head, again and again. At last, when they had finished their mocking, they took the robe off, and put his own garments on him, and led him away to crucify him.
The soldiers then led him away into the courtyard (Praetorium), and called together the whole battalion. They clothed Jesus in purple, and plaited a crown of thorns, and placed it on his head. Then they began to salute him. "Hail, King of the Jews," they said.read more.
They kept striking him on the head with a rod, and spitting upon him; and on bended knee they did him homage. And after their sport with him, they stripped off the purple robe, and put on his own clothes, and led him out to crucify him.
After that Pilate took Jesus and had him scourged; and the soldiers plaited a crown of thorns, placed it on his head, and threw a purple cloak about him, and kept marching up to him, saying, "Hail! King of the Jews!" They also gave him blow after blow with their hands.read more.
Pilate again came forth and said to the people, "See, I am going to bring his out to you, that you may clearly know that I find no crime in him," Then as Jesus came out, wearing the crown of thorns and the purple robe, Pilate said to them, "BEHOLD, THE MAN!" So when the chief priests and the police saw him, they shouted. "Crucify him! Crucify him!" "Take him yourselves and crucify him," said Pilate, "for I find no crime in him."
Now at the time of the feast it was customary to release to them a prisoner, whatever one they asked for. A man named Barabbas was there in prison, with some rioters who had committed murder during an uprising. So when the crowd went up and began asking Pilate to follow his usual custom,read more.
he asked them, "Do you wish me to release the King of the Jews?" For he recognized that it was through spite that the high priests had handed him over. But the chief priests incited the crowds to have Barabbas released to them, instead. So Pilate spoke to them once more, "What them shall I do to him you call 'King of the Jews'?" Then they shouted again, "Crucify him!" "Why, what wrong has he done?" Pilate kept saying. But they shouted furiously, "Crucify him!"
Pilate said to him, "What is truth?" As he said this, he went outside again to the Jews and said to them. "I find no crime in this man. Now it is a custom of yours that I release one prisoner to you at the time of the Passover feast. Do you wish me to release to you the King of the Jews?" Then they all shouted again. "No, not him! Barabbas!" Now Barabbas was a robber.
Then those who had been scattered by the trouble that arose over Stephen, traveled as far as Phoenicia and Cyprus and Antioch; but they preached the word to none except Jews.
