John 8:22

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

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

Then answered the Jews, and said unto him, Say we not well that you are a Samaritan, and have a demon?

The people answered and said, You have a demon: who goes about to kill you?

And many of them said, He has a demon, and is mad; why hear you him?

But I am a worm, and no man; a reproach of men, and despised of the people.

Let the lying lips be put to silence; who speak grievous things proudly and contemptuously against the righteous.

Our soul is exceedingly filled with the scorn of those that are at ease, and with the contempt of the proud.

For consider him that endured such hostility of sinners against himself, lest you be wearied and faint in your minds.

Let us go forth therefore unto him outside the camp, bearing his reproach.

You shall seek me, and shall not find me: and where I am, there you cannot come.
