Nathaniel said to Him, "How do you know me?" Jesus answered him, "While you were still under the fig tree, before Philip called you, I saw you."

Nicodemus said to Him, "How can a man be born when he is old? He cannot again enter his mother's womb and be born, can he?"

Then Nicodemus answered by asking, "How can this be?"

If you do not believe the earthly things I tell you, how can you believe the heavenly things, if I tell you about them?

So the Samaritan woman said to Him, "How is it that a Jew like you asks a Samaritan woman like me for a drink?" For Jews have nothing to do with Samaritans.

How can you believe, you who are always accepting honor from one another, but never seek the honor that comes from the one God?

But if you do not believe what he wrote, how will you ever believe what I say?"

And they said, "Is He not Jesus, Joseph's son, whose father and mother we know? So how can He say, 'I have come down out of heaven'?"

But the Jews kept on wrangling with one another and saying, "How can He give us His flesh to eat?"

The Jews were dumbfounded and said, "How can this uneducated man know the Scriptures?"

They answered Him, "We are Abraham's descendants and we never have been anybody's slaves. How can you say to us, 'You will be set free'?"

So they kept on asking him, "How in the world did you come to see?"

So the Pharisees again asked him how he had come to see. He answered them: "He put some clay on my eyes, and I washed them, and so now I can see."

Then some of the Pharisees said, "This man does not come from God, for He does not keep the Sabbath." Others said, "How can a sinful man perform such wonder- works?" So there was a difference of opinion among them.

and asked them, "Is this your son, and do you affirm that he was born blind? If so, how is it then that he now can see?"

But we do not know how it is that he now can see, or who it was that made his eyes to see. Ask him; he is of age; he can speak for himself."

Again they said to him, "What did He do to you? How did He make your eyes to see again?"

So the Jews surrounded Him and kept asking Him, "How much longer are you going to keep us in suspense? If you are really the Christ, tell us so plainly."

So the Jews said, "See how tenderly He loved him!"

The crowd answered Him, "We have learned from the law that the Christ is to remain here forever, and so how can you say that the Son of Man must be lifted up? Who is this Son of Man?"

Thomas said to Him, "Lord, we do not know where you are going, and so how can we know the way?"

Jesus said to him, "Have I been with you disciples so long, and yet you, Philip, have not recognized me? Whoever has seen me has seen the Father. How can you say, 'Let us see the Father'?
