the law indeed was delivered by Moses, but grace and truth was the dispensation of Jesus Christ.

The next day John saw Jesus coming to him, and said, "behold the lamb of God, who taketh away the sin of the world."

and seeing Jesus as he walked, he said, "behold the lamb of God."

the two disciples hearing this, followed Jesus.

then Jesus turned about, and seeing them following, said, what do you seek? they answered him, rabbi, that is to say master, where do you dwell?

Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, was one of the two disciples, who had followed Jesus, after they had heard what John had said.

and he brought him to Jesus. and when Jesus beheld him, he said, "thou art Simon the son of Jona: thou shalt be called Cephas," which is by interpretation, a stone.

The day following Jesus having a mind to go into Galilee, met with Philip, and said to him, follow me.

Philip meeting with Nathanael, said to him, we have found him of whom Moses in the law, and the prophets did write, Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph.

Jesus seeing Nathanael coming, said of him, there's a true Israelite, in whom is no guile. how do you know me?

said Nathanael to him. before Philip called you, replied Jesus, I saw you under the fig-tree.

Jesus answered him, because thou believest what I said, that I saw thee under the fig-tree, thou shalt see greater things than these.

Three days after, there was a wedding at Cana in Galilee; where the mother of Jesus was present.

as likewise Jesus and his disciples, who were all invited to the feast.

now when the wine was out, the mother of Jesus said to him, they have no wine.

Jesus answer'd her, woman, leave that affair to me, is not that my concern?

these Jesus order'd the waiters to fill with water. so they filled them up to the brim.

thus was the first miracle of Jesus wrought at Cana in Galilee, by which he displayed his power; and his disciples believed on him.

for the Jews passover being nigh, Jesus went up to Jerusalem,

Jesus answered them, saying, destroy this temple, and within three days I will raise it up.

and when he was risen from the dead, his disciples remembred that expression of his: and they believed the scripture, and what Jesus had said.

but Jesus did not trust his person with them, because he knew them all.

who came to Jesus by night, and said to him, rabbi, we know that thou art a teacher sent from God: for no man can perform the miracles that you do, except God be with him.

Jesus answered him, I declare unto thee, except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.

Jesus answered, I tell thee, except a man be renewed by the spiritual baptism, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.

Jesus answered him, are you a doctor in Israel, and not know these things?

After this Jesus went with his disciples into Judea, where he stay'd with them for some time,

Jesus therefore knowing the Pharisees had heard that he made more disciples, and baptized more than John,

(though Jesus himself did not baptize, but only his disciples) he left Judea,

now Jacob's well was there. Jesus therefore being wearied with his journey, sat him down by the well: it being about the sixth hour.

where a woman of Samaria being come to draw water, Jesus said to her, give me to drink.

Jesus answered her, if you knew the dispensation of God, and who it is that says to you, give me to drink; you would have asked of him, and he would have given you living water.

Jesus answered her, they that drink of this water, will be thirsty again:

go, call your husband, said Jesus, and come again.

the woman answered, I have no husband. Jesus replied, you were in the right to say you have no husband:

Jesus said to her, woman, believe me, the time is coming when it shall be neither on this mountain, nor yet at Jerusalem that ye shall worship the father.

Jesus said to her, I that am talking with you am he.

Jesus said to them, my meat is to do the will of him that sent me, and to finish his work.

(tho' Jesus himself had declared, that a prophet is not honoured in his own country.)

Jesus went therefore a second time to Cana in Galilee, where he had changed the water into wine. now a certain nobleman was there, whose son was sick at Capernaum.

who having heard that Jesus was come out of Judea into Galilee, he went there to desire him to come down, and heal his son: for he was at the point of death.

but Jesus said to him, except you see signs and miracles, you will not believe.

go thy way, said Jesus: thy son is well. and the man believed what Jesus had said to him, and went his way.

so the father knew that it was at the very same hour, at which Jesus said to him, thy son is well. and he himself believed, and all his family.

Jesus did this second miracle when he return'd from Judea to Galilee.

Some time after this the feast of the Jews being come, Jesus went up to Jerusalem.

Jesus seeing him lie there, and knowing that he had been sick a long time, said to him, will you be cured?

rise, said Jesus to him, take up thy bed, and go your way.

and he that was healed, did not know who it was: for Jesus had slip'd away, by favour of the crowd that was there.

sometime after Jesus met him in the temple, and said to him, you see you were cured: sin no more, lest you suffer something worse.

then the man departed to acquaint the Jews, that it was Jesus who had cured him.

upon which occasion the Jews persecuted Jesus, and sought to slay him, because he did such things on the sabbath-day.

But Jesus answered them, my father works without intermission, and so do I.

upon which Jesus said to them, verily, verily I say unto you, the son can do nothing of himself, except he sees the father do it: for whatever he doth, that the son does likewise.

At length Jesus passed over the sea of Galilee, which is the sea of Tiberias;

Jesus therefore went up a mountain, where he sat down with his disciples.

Jesus then lifting up his eyes, and seeing a great company coming to him, said to Philip, where can we buy bread to feed this people?

but Jesus said, make the men sit down. and as there was much grass in the place, they sat down to the number of about five thousand.

then Jesus took the loaves, and when he had given thanks, he distributed to them that were sate down; and likewise of the fishes, as much as they would.

The people, when they had seen the miracle that Jesus did, cry'd out, this is of a truth that prophet who was to come into the world.

but Jesus perceiving they designed to come and take him by force to make him a king, retired again upon a mountain all alone.

they cross'd the sea to Capernaum: now when it was dark, Jesus was not come to them:

so when they had rowed about five and twenty, or thirty furlongs, seeing Jesus walking on the sea, and drawing nigh to the ship, they were frightned.

The day following, the people who stay'd on the other side of the sea, perceiving that there had been only that single vessel in which his disciples were embark'd, that Jesus did not embark with his disciples, but that his disciples were gone away alone: (however,

the people likewise seeing that Jesus was not in those barks, nor his disciples, went on board them, and cross'd to Capernaum in quest of Jesus.

Jesus answered them, I declare unto you, you seek me, not because ye saw the miracles, but because ye had loaves to eat, and were filled.

Jesus answered them, the work which God requires is to believe on him whom he hath sent.

Jesus answer'd, I assure you, Moses did not give you the celestial bread; but my father gives you the true celestial bread.

Jesus answer'd, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me, shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me, shall never thirst.

is not this, said they, Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? how comes he then to say, I came down from heaven?

Jesus therefore replied, murmur not among your selves.

but Jesus answer'd, I assure you, except ye eat the flesh of the son of man, and drink his blood, ye will have no life in you.

These things said Jesus in the synagogue, as he taught in Capernaum.

Jesus perceiving in himself, that his disciples murmured at it, said to them, doth this offend you?

but there are some of you who do not believe. (for Jesus knew from the beginning, who they were that did not believe, and who should betray him.)

upon which Jesus said to the twelve, will not ye likewise go away?

Jesus answered them, have I not chosen you all twelve, and yet one of you is an avowed enemy?

After this Jesus resided in Galilee: for he would not be in Judea, because the Jews sought to kill him. now the

but Jesus said to them, my time is not yet come: but any time is equally proper for you.

but about the middle of the feast, Jesus went publickly into the temple, and taught.

Jesus answered them, the doctrine I deliver is not my own, but his that sent me.

Jesus answered them, I perform'd one single miracle on the sabbath, and does that alarm you?

Jesus then pursuing his discourse in the temple, rais'd his voice, and said, you know both who I am, and whence I am: however, I am not come of my self, but he that sent me is worthy of belief, him you are unacquainted with.

then said Jesus, I shall be with you but for a little time, and then I shall go to him that sent me.

In the last day, the most solemn day of the feast, Jesus being there, raised his voice, and said, if any man thirst, let him come to me, and drink.

(but this he meant of the spirit, which they that believed on him, should receive: for the spirit was not yet given, because Jesus was not yet glorified.)

thereupon Nicodemus, he that came to Jesus by night, and was then present,

Then Jesus went to the mount of olives.

they said this only to ensnare him, that they might have some accusation against him. but Jesus stooped down, and with his finger wrote on the ground.

but they who heard that, being convicted by their own conscience, they all went old and young one after another, so that Jesus was left alone with the woman, who still kept her place.

then Jesus raising himself, and seeing none but the woman there, he said to her, woman, where are your accusers? hath no man condemned thee?

Lord, said she, no man. and Jesus said to her, neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more.

Jesus then having reassumed his discourse, said to them, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me, shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.

Jesus answered them, though I give testimony of my self, yet my testimony is valid: for I know whence I came, and whither I go; but you do not know whence I came, nor whither I go.

then said they to him, where is thy father: Jesus answered, ye neither know me, nor my father: if ye knew me, ye would have known my father also.

Jesus delivered this discourse in the treasury, when he taught in the temple: and no man laid hands on him, for his hour was not yet come.

Jesus therefore repeated what he had said, "I go my way, and ye shall seek me, and shall die in your incredulity, so that whither I go, ye cannot come."

then said they to him, what art thou? and Jesus answered them, I am what I just now told you.

Jesus said therefore to them, when ye have lift up the son of man, then shall ye know what I am, and that I do nothing of my self, but speak as my father hath instructed me.

Jesus said therefore to those Jews who believed on him, if you adhere to my doctrine, then will you be my disciples indeed; and ye shall know the truth,
