They said therefore to him, "Who are you? Give us an answer to take back to those who sent us. What do you say about yourself?"

Then He said to them, "Come, and you will see." So, they went and saw where He was staying and they stayed with Him that day. It was about ten o'clock in the morning. [Note: Hour designations in this book are being calculated by Roman time, but this would have been

And they did so. When the master of the feast tasted the water which had now turned into wine, without knowing where it had come from??hough the servants who had drawn the water knew??10 he called the bridegroom and said to him, "Everyone else serves his good wine first, and his poorer wine after people have drunk deeply, but you have kept back your good wine till now!"

and said to him, “Everyone else serves his best wine first, and when people have drunk freely, then he serves that which is not so good; but you have kept back the good wine until now.”

So when he had come back again from the dead, the memory of these words came back to the disciples, and they had faith in the holy Writings and in the word which Jesus had said.

Nicodemus asked him, "How can a person be born when he is old? He can't go back into his mother's womb a second time and be born, can he?"

So when the Lord learned that the Pharisees had been told that he was gaining and baptizing more disciples than John??2 though it was not Jesus himself who baptized them, but his disciples??3 he left Judea and went back again to Galilee.

he left Judea and went back to Galilee.

At this, Jesus said, “Go, call your husband and come back.”

At that point the disciples came back, and they were surprised to see him talking to a woman; but not one of them said to him, What is your purpose? or, Why are you talking to her?

Then the woman left her water jar and went back to town. She told people,

So he came back to Cana in Galilee, where he had made the water into wine. There was at Capernaum one of the king's officials whose son was sick.

Having heard that Jesus had come back from Judea to Galilee, he went to meet Him and began asking Him to come down and heal his son; for he was at the point of death.

"You may return home," replied Jesus; "your son has recovered." He believed the words of Jesus, and started back home;

This second sign Jesus showed after coming back from Judea to Galilee.

Jesus said to him, “Get up; pick up your pallet and walk.”

So the Jews kept saying to the man who had been healed, “It is the Sabbath, and you are not permitted to pick up your pallet [because it is unlawful].”

He answered them, “The Man who healed me and gave me back my strength was the One who said to me, ‘Pick up your pallet and walk.’”

They asked him, “Who is the Man who told you, ‘Pick up your pallet and walk’?”

The man went back and told the Jews that it was Jesus who had cured him.

When they were satisfied, he said to his disciples, "Pick up the pieces that are left, so that nothing may be wasted."

and they got into a boat and started to cross the sea to Capernaum. It was already dark, and Jesus had still not come [back] to them.

It is written in the prophets, ‘And they will all be taught of God.’ Everyone who has listened to and learned from the Father, comes to Me.

Suppose you were to see the Son of Man going back where He was before?

From that time many of his disciples went back, and walked no more with him.

So Jesus said to the Twelve, "You too do not want to go back, do you?"

Therefore Jesus said, “For a little while longer I am [still] with you, and then I go to Him who sent Me.

Then the guards went [back] to the chief priests and Pharisees, who asked them, “Why did you not bring Him [here with you]?”

They answered him, "Are you from Galilee, too? Search [the Scriptures], and you will see that no prophet will come from Galilee." [Note: They were probably referring to "the prophet" predicted to come by Moses. Deut. 18:15]. {{Most ancient manuscripts do not contain the section from 7:53 through 8:11, or else place it elsewhere in the book.

[And everyone went to his own house.

Early in the morning He came back into the temple [court], and all the people were coming to Him. He sat down and began teaching them.

and when they continued asking him, having bent himself back, he said unto them, 'The sinless of you -- let him first cast the stone at her;'

And Jesus having bent himself back, and having seen no one but the woman, said to her, 'Woman, where are those -- thine accusers? did no one pass sentence upon thee?'

And He said to him, “Go, wash in the pool of Siloam” (which is translated, Sent). So he went away and washed, and came back seeing.

So the neighbors, and those who used to know him as a beggar, said, “Is not this the man who used to sit and beg?”

But these Jews [i.e., Pharisees] did not believe that the man had been blind and had received his sight back until they called his parents

For this reason the Father loves Me, because I lay down My [own] life so that I may take it back.

No one takes it away from Me, but I lay it down voluntarily. I am authorized and have power to lay it down and to give it up, and I am authorized and have power to take it back. This command I have received from My Father.”

During the winter, when the Festival of Dedication was being held in Jerusalem [Note: This was the Jewish festival commemorating the rededication of the Temple in BC after its pagan desecration by Greeks. It is still observed today by Jews as "Hanukkah."],

He went back again across the Jordan to the place where John was first baptizing, and He was staying there.

Then He said to His disciples, “Let us go back to Judea.”

The disciples said to Him, “Rabbi (Teacher), the Jews were only recently going to stone You, and You are [thinking of] going back there again?”

Jesus replied, "Your brother will come back to life again."

Martha said to him, I am certain that he will come to life again when all come back from the dead at the last day.

After she had said this, she left and called her sister Mary, privately whispering [to her], “The Teacher is here and is asking for you.”

But some of them went back to the Pharisees and told them what Jesus had done.

Then, six days before the Passover, Jesus came to Bethany where Lazarus was, whom Jesus had made to come back from the dead.

This he said, not that he cared for the poor; but because he was a thief, and had the bag, and bare what was put therein.

Now it became widely known among the Jews that Jesus was there; but they came not only on His account, but also in order to see Lazarus whom He had brought back to life.

Next day the big crowd who had come up for the Passover heard that Jesus was coming into Jerusalem,

The large number of people, however, who had been present when He called Lazarus out of the tomb and brought him back to life, related what they had witnessed.

'He hath blinded their eyes, and hardened their heart, that they might not see with the eyes, and understand with the heart, and turn back, and I might heal them;'

So at supper??he devil having by this time put the thought of betraying Jesus into the mind of Judas Iscariot, Simon's son??3 Jesus, fully aware that the Father had put everything into his hands, and that he had come from God and was going back to God,

Jesus knew that the Father had given everything into His hands, that He had come from God, and that He was going back to God.

So when he had washed their feet, put his outer garment back on, and sat down again, he said to them, "Do you know what I have done to you?

He leaning back, as he was, on Jesus breast saith unto him, Lord, who is it?

For some of them thought, because Judas had the bag, that Jesus had said unto him, Buy those things that we have need of against the feast; or, that he should give something to the poor.

And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back again and I will take you to Myself, so that where I am you may be also.

And I will beg the Father, and he will give you another Comforter, that he may be with you for ever,

“I will not leave you as orphans [comfortless, bereaved, and helpless]; I will come [back] to you.

Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I to you. Let not your heart be agitated, nor shrink back through fear.

You heard Me tell you, ‘I am going away, and I am coming back to you.’ If you [really] loved Me, you would have rejoiced, because I am going [back] to the Father, for the Father is greater than I.

He cuts off every branch that does not produce fruit in me, and he cuts back every branch that does produce fruit, so that it might produce more fruit.

[It will be shown] what is right because I am going [back] to the Father and you will not see me anymore.

Then some of Jesus' disciples said to one another, "What is this He is telling us: 'After a little while [longer] you will not see me. Then, a little while [later] you will see me again,' and 'Because I am going [back] to the Father'?" [See verse 10].

I left the Father and came into the world. Now I'm leaving the world and going back to the Father."

When Jesus said, “I am He,” they drew back and fell to the ground.

So Jesus said to Peter, “Put the sword [back] in its sheath! Shall I not drink the cup which My Father has given Me?”

So Pilate went into the Praetorium again, and called Jesus and asked Him, “Are You the King of the Jews?”

Pilate asked, "What is truth?" When he had said this he went back outside to the Jewish leaders and announced, "I find no basis for an accusation against him.

Then they all shouted back again, “Not this Man, but Barabbas!” Now Barabbas was a robber.

He went back into the headquarters and asked Jesus, “Where are You from?” But Jesus did not give him an answer.

A bowl of sour wine was standing there. So they put a sponge soaked in the wine on a pike and held it to his lips.

Then the disciples went back again to their own homes.

And when she had thus said, she turned herself back, and saw Jesus standing, and knew not that it was Jesus.

Any to whom you give forgiveness, will be made free from their sins; and any from whom you keep back forgiveness, will still be in their sins.

And many other signs truly did Jesus in the presence of his disciples, which are not written in this book:

But when day was now breaking, Jesus stood on the beach: yet the disciples knew not that it was Jesus.

And He said to them, “Cast the net on the right-hand side of the boat (starboard) and you will find some.” So they cast [the net], and then they were not able to haul it in because of the great catch of fish.

That disciple whom Jesus kept loving told Peter, "It's the Lord!" When Simon Peter heard that it was the Lord, he put his clothes back on, because he was practically naked, and jumped into the sea.

So when they got out on the beach, they saw a charcoal fire set up and fish on it cooking, and bread.

So Peter went to the boat and came back pulling the net to land, full of great fish, a hundred and fifty-three; and though there was such a number the net was not broken.

Now this was the third time that Jesus let himself be seen by the disciples after he had come back from the dead.

Peter, turning about, seeth the disciple whom Jesus loved following; who also leaned back on his breast at the supper, and said, Lord, who is he that betrayeth thee?

Jesus said to him, If it is my desire for him to be here till I come back, what is that to you? come yourself after me.

So this saying went about among the brothers that this disciple would not undergo death: Jesus, however, did not say that he would not undergo death, but, If it is my desire for him to be here till I come back, what is that to you?
