Do not suppose that I will be the one to accuse you before the Father. Your accuser is Moses, on whom you have set your hope,

Jesus told them, "Truly, I tell all of you emphatically, it was not Moses who gave you the bread from heaven, but it is my Father who gives you the true bread from heaven.

Moses gave you the Law, didn't he? Yet none of you is keeping the Law. Why are you trying to kill me?"

Moses gave you circumcision not that it is from Moses, but from the Patriarchs and so you circumcise a man on the Sabbath.

At this, they turned on him in fury and said, "You are his disciple, but we are disciples of Moses!

We know that God has spoken to Moses, but we do not know where this fellow comes from."
