It was by him that life came into existence, and that life was the light of mankind.

The light is still shining in the darkness, for the darkness has never put it out.

He came to give testimony, to testify to the light, so that everyone might come to believe in it through him.

He was not the light; he came to testify to the light.

The real light, which sheds light upon everyone, was just coming into the world.

And the basis of the judgment is this, that the light has come into the world, and yet, because their actions were wicked, men have loved the darkness more than the light.

For everyone who does wrong hates the light and will not come to it, for fear his actions will be exposed.

But everyone who is living the truth will come to the light, to show that his actions have been performed in dependence upon God.

For the Father loves the Son and lets him see everything that he himself is doing, and he will let him see greater deeds than these, to make you wonder.

He was the lamp that burned and shone, and you were ready to be gladdened for a while by his light.

This led the Jews to dispute with one another. They said, "How can he give us his flesh to eat?"

So his brothers said to him, "You ought to leave here and go to Judea, to let your disciples also see the things you are doing.

For no one acts in secret when he desires to be publicly known. If you are going to do these things, let the world see you."

Then they tried to arrest him, and yet no one laid hands on him, because he was not yet ready.

Now on the last day, the great day of the festival, Jesus stood up and cried out, "If anyone is thirsty, let him come to me and drink.

and some of them wanted to arrest him, yet no one laid hands on him.

Then Jesus spoke to them again and said, "I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will not have to walk in darkness but will have the light of life."

Jesus answered, "It was neither for his own sin nor for that of his parents, but to let what God can do be illustrated in his case.

As long as I am in the world, I am a light for the world."

But we do not know how it is that he can see now, or who has made him able to see. You must ask him. He is grown up. Let him tell you about himself."

A thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come to let them have life, and to let them have it in abundance.

I have other sheep too that do not belong to this fold. I must lead them too, and they will obey my voice, and they will all become one flock, with one shepherd.

Jesus answered, "I have let you see many good things from the Father; which of them do you mean to stone me for?"

and then afterward said to his disciples, "Let us go back to Judea."

Jesus answered, "Is not the day twelve hours long? If a man travels by day he will not stumble, for he can see the light of this world;

but if he travels at night he will stumble because he has no light."

"Lazarus is dead, and for your sake I am glad that I was not there, so that you may learn to believe in me. But let us go to him."

So Thomas the Twin said to his fellow-disciples, "Let us go also, and die with him."

he said, "Where have you laid him?" They answered, "Come and see, Master."

Again repressing a groan, Jesus went to the tomb. It was a cave with a stone laid against the mouth of it.

After saying this he called out in a loud voice, "Lazarus, come out!"

The dead man came out, bound hand and foot with wrappings, and with his face muffled with a handkerchief. Jesus said to them, "Unbind him and let him move."

If we let him go on, everybody will believe in him, and then the Romans will come and put an end to our holy place and our people."

For the high priests and the Pharisees had given orders that anyone who found out where he was should let them know, so that they might arrest him.

Jesus said, "Let her alone; let her keep it for the day of my funeral,

Jesus said to them, "You will have the light only a little while longer. Go on while you still have the light, so that darkness may not overtake you, for those who go about in the dark do not know where they are going.

While you have the light believe in the light, that you may become sons of light." With these words Jesus went away, and disappeared from them.

I have come into the world as a light, so that no one who believes in me may have to remain in darkness.

Peter said to him, "I will never let you wash my feet!" Jesus answered, "You will have no share with me unless I wash you."

I do not mean all of you; I know whom I have chosen; but let the Scripture be fulfilled: " 'He who is eating my bread Has raised his heel against me.'

Philip said to him, "Master, let us see the Father, and it will satisfy us."

Jesus said to him, "Have I been with you 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'?

but he is coming that the world may know that I love the Father and am doing what he has commanded me to do. Come, let us go away.

Let them all be one. Just as you, Father, are in union with me and I am with you, let them be in union with us, so that the world may believe that you sent me.

Jesus answered, "I have told you that I am he, so if you are looking for me, let these men go."

This made Pilate try to find a way to let him go, but the Jews shouted, "If you let him go, you are no friend of the emperor's! Anyone who calls himself a king utters treason against the emperor!"

So they said to one another, "Let us not tear it, but let us draw for it, to see who gets it." This was to fulfil what the Scripture says: "They divided my garments among them, And for my clothing they cast lots." This was what the soldiers did.

The man who saw it testifies to it??is testimony is true; he knows that he is telling the truth??o lead you also to believe.

After this, Joseph, of Arimathea, who was a disciple of Jesus, but a secret one, because of his fear of the Jews, asked Pilate to let him remove Jesus' body, and Pilate gave him permission. So Joseph went and took the body down.

There was a garden at the place where Jesus had been crucified, and in the garden was a new tomb in which no one had yet been laid.
