John 8:22

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

Then said the Jews, Will he kill himself? because he saith, Whither I go, ye cannot come.

The Jews said to him in answer, Are we not right in saying that you are of Samaria and have an evil spirit?

The people said in answer, You have an evil spirit: who has any desire to put you to death?

And a number of them said, He has an evil spirit and is out of his mind; why do you give ear to him?

But I am a worm and not a man; cursed by men, and looked down on by the people.

Let the false lips be shut, which say evil against the upright, looking down on him in their pride.

Give thought to him who has undergone so much of the hate of sinners against himself, so that you may not be tired and feeble of purpose.

Let us then go out to him outside the circle of the tents, taking his shame on ourselves.

You will be looking for me, and you will not see me: and where I am you may not come.
