"Can anything good come out of Nazareth?" asked Nathanael. "Come and see," replied Philip.

Two days after this there was a wedding at Cana in Galilee, and Jesus' mother was there.

This, the first sign of his mission, Jesus gave at Cana in Galilee, and by it revealed his glory; and his disciples believed in him.

"How can a man," asked Nicodemus, "be born when he is old? Can he be born a second time?"

The wind blows where it wills, and you can hear the sound of it, but you do not know whence it comes, or where it goes; it is the same with every one that owes his birth to the Spirit."

"How can that be?" asked Nicodemus.

John's answer was--"A man can gain nothing but what is given him from Heaven.

"Come and see someone who has told me everything that I have done. Can he be the Christ?"

"Can any one have brought him anything to eat?" the disciples said to one another.

So Jesus came again to Cana in Galilee, where he had turned the water into wine. Now there was one of the King's officers whose son was lying ill at Capernaum.

So Jesus made this further reply: "In truth I tell you, the Son can do nothing of himself; he does only what he sees the Father doing; whatever the Father does, the Son does also.

I can do nothing of myself; I judge as I am taught; and the judgment that I give is just, because my aim is not to do my own will, but the will of him who sent me.

How can you believe in me, when you receive honor from one another and do not desire the honor which comes from the only God?

"No one can come to me, unless the Father who sent me draws him to me; and I will raise him up at the Last Day.

On hearing it, many of his disciples said: "This is harsh doctrine! Who can bear to listen to it?"

And he added: "This is why I told you that no one can come to me, unless enabled by the Father."

When a man receives circumcision on a Sabbath to prevent the Law of Moses from being broken, how can you be angry with me for making a man sound and well on a Sabbath?

Which of you can convict me of sin? Why then do not you believe me, if I am speaking truth?

We must do the work of him who sent me, while it is day; night is coming, when no one can work.

So the Pharisees also questioned the man as to how he had gained his sight. "He put clay on my eyes," he answered, "and I washed them, and I can see."

"Is this your son," they asked, "who you say was born blind? If so, how is it that he can see now?"

But how it is that he can see now we do not know; nor do we know who it was that gave him his sight. Ask him--he is old enough- -he will tell you about himself."

"I know nothing about his being a bad man," he replied; "one thing I do know, that although I was blind, now I can see."

And Jesus added: "It was to put men to the test that I came into this world, in order that those that cannot see should see, and that those that can see should become blind."

"If you had been blind," replied Jesus, "you would have had no sin to answer for; but, as it is, you say 'We can see,' and so your sin remains.

Others said: "This is not the teaching of one who is possessed by a demon. Can a demon give sight to the blind?"

What my Father has entrusted to me is more than all else; and no one can snatch anything out of the Father's hands.

"Are not there twelve hours in the day?" answered Jesus. "If a man walks about in the day-time, he does not stumble, because he can see the light of the sun;

Now I am distressed at heart and what can I say? Father, bring me safe through this hour--yet it was for this very reason that I came to this hour--

"We do not know where you are going, Master," said Thomas; "so how can we know the way?"

"Have I been all this time among you," said Jesus, "and yet you, Philip, have not recognized me? He who has seen me has seen the Father, how can you say, then, 'Show us the Father'?

Remain united to me, and I will remain united to you. As a branch cannot bear fruit by itself, unless it remains united to the vine; no more can you, unless you remain united to me.

I am the Vine, you are the branches. He that remains united to me, while I remain united to him--he bears fruit plentifully; for you can do nothing apart from me.

No one can give greater proof of love than by laying down his life for his friends.

"What is Truth?" exclaimed Pilate. After saying this, he went out to the Jews again, and said: "For my part, I find nothing with which he can be charged.

Pilate again came outside, and said to the people: "Look! I am bringing him out to you, so that you may know that I find nothing with which he can be charged."

When the Chief Priests and the police-officers saw him, they shouted: "Crucify him! Crucify him!" "Take him yourselves and crucify him," said Pilate. "For my part, I find nothing with which he can be charged."

It was in this way:--Simon Peter, Thomas, who was called 'The Twin,' Nathanael of Cana in Galilee, Zebediah's sons, and two other disciples of Jesus, were together, when Simon Peter said:

The third time, Jesus said to him: "Simon, son of John, are you my friend?" Peter was hurt at his third question being 'Are you my friend?'; and exclaimed: "Master, you know everything! You can tell that I am your friend." "Feed my sheep," said Jesus.
