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 thou art a Samaritan and hast the devil?"

The people answered and said, "Thou hast the devil. Who goeth about to kill thee?"

and many of them said, "He hath the devil, and is mad: why hear ye him?"

But as for me, I am a worm and no man: a very scorn of men and the outcast of the people.

Let the lying lips be put to silence, which cruelly, disdainfully, and despitefully speak against the righteous.

Our soul is filled with the scornful reproof of the wealthy, and with the despitefulness of the proud.

Consider therefore how that he endured such speaking against him of sinners, lest ye should be wearied and faint in your minds.

Let us go forth therefore out of the tents, and suffer rebuke with him.

Ye shall seek me, and shall not find me: And where I am, thither can ye not come."
