Through him all things came into being, and nothing came into being apart from him.

That which came into being in him was Life; and the Life was the Light of Man;

That was the True Light which enlightens every man coming into the world.

He was in the world; and through him the world came into being--yet the world did not know him.

And said to the pigeon-dealers: "Take these things away. Do not turn my Father's House into a market-house."

For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world might be saved through him.

The ground of his condemnation is this, that though the Light has come into the world, men preferred the darkness to the Light, because their actions were wicked.

After this, Jesus went with his disciples into the country parts of Judea; and there he stayed with them, and baptized.

For his disciples had gone into the town to buy food.

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.

"I have no one, Sir," the afflicted man answered, "to put me into the Bath when there is a troubling of the water, and, while I am getting to it, some one else steps down before me."

In truth I tell you that he who listens to my Message and believes him who sent me, has Immortal Life, and does not come under condemnation, but has already passed out of Death into Life.

When the people saw the signs which Jesus gave, they said: "This is certainly 'the Prophet who was to come' into the world."

And, getting into a boat, began to cross to Capernaum. By this time darkness had set in, and Jesus had not yet come back to them;

And after this they were glad to take him into the boat; and the boat at once arrived off the shore, for which they had been making.

The people who remained on the further side of the Sea had seen that only one boat had been there, and that Jesus had not gone into it with his disciples, but that they had left without him.

So, on the next day, when the people saw that Jesus was not there, or his disciples either, they themselves got into the boats, and went to Capernaum to look for him.

His brothers said to him: "Leave this part of the country, and go into Judea, so that your disciples, as well as we, may see the work that you are doing.

About the middle of the Festival week, Jesus went up into the Temple Courts, and began teaching.

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."

In truth I tell you, whoever does not go into the sheepfold through the door, but climbs up at some other place, that man is a thief and a robber;

"Yes Master," she answered; "I have learned to believe that you are the Christ, the Son of God, 'who was to come' into the world."

Jesus had not then come into the village, but was still at the place where Martha had met him.

Jesus burst into tears.

In consequence of this, Jesus did not go about publicly among the Jews any more, but left that neighborhood, and went into the country bordering on the Wilderness, to a town called Ephraim, where he stayed with his disciples.

In truth I tell you, unless a grain of wheat falls into the ground and dies, it remains solitary; but, if it dies, it becomes fruitful.

I have come as a Light into the world, that no one who believes in me should remain in the darkness.

The Devil had already put the thought of betraying Jesus into the mind of Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon;

And at supper, Jesus--although knowing that the Father had put everything into his hands, and that he had come from God, and was to return to God--

He then poured some water into the basin, and began to wash the disciples' feet, and to wipe them with the towel which was tied round him.

If any one does not remain united to me, he is thrown away, as a branch would be, and withers up. Such branches are collected and thrown into the fire, and are burnt.

Yet when he--The Spirit of Truth--comes, he will guide you into all Truth; for he will not speak on his own authority, but he will speak of all that he hears; and he will tell you of the things that are to come.

A woman in labor is in pain because her time has come; but no sooner is the child born, than she forgets her trouble in her joy that a man has been born into the world.

I came out from the Father, and have come into the world; and now I am to leave the world, and go to the Father."

When Jesus had said this, he went out with his disciples and crossed the brook Kedron to a place where there was a garden, into which he and his disciples went.

Meanwhile Simon Peter followed Jesus, and so did another disciple. That disciple, being well-known to the High Priest, went with Jesus into the High Priest's court-yard,

After that, Pilate went into the Government House again, and calling Jesus up, asked him: "Are you the King of the Jews?"

"So you are a King after all!" exclaimed Pilate. "Yes, it is true I am a King," answered Jesus. "I was born for this, I have come into the world for this--to bear testimony to the Truth. Every one who is on the side of Truth listens to my voice."

And, going into the Government House again, he said to Jesus: "Where do you come from?"

When the soldiers had crucified Jesus, they took his clothes and divided them into four shares--a share for each soldier--and they took the coat also. The coat had no seam, being woven in one piece from top to bottom.

Presently Simon Peter came following behind him, and went into the tomb; and he looked at the linen wrappings lying there,

Meanwhile Mary was standing close outside the tomb, weeping. Still weeping, she leant forward into the tomb,

So the rest of the disciples said to him: "We have seen the Master!" "Unless I see the marks of the nails in his hands," he exclaimed, "and put my finger into the marks, and put my hand into his side, I will not believe it."

Then he said to Thomas: "Place your finger here, and look at my hands; and place your hand here, and put it into my side; and do not refuse to believe, but believe."

"I am going fishing." "We will come with you," said the others. They went out and got into the boat, but caught nothing that night.

Upon this the disciple whom Jesus loved said to Peter: "It is the Master!" When Simon Peter heard that it was the Master, he fastened his coat round him (for he had taken it off), and threw himself into the Sea.

So Simon Peter got into the boat and hauled the net ashore full of large fish, a hundred and fifty-three of them; and yet, although there were so many, the net had not been torn.
