These men had been sent from the Pharisees;

These things were done in Bethabara beyond Jordan, where John was baptising.

Nathanael said to Jesus, “How do You know [these things about] me?” Jesus answered, “Before Philip called you, when you were still under the fig tree, I saw you.”

Jesus answered and said unto him, Because I said to thee, I saw thee under the fig-tree, dost thou believe? thou shalt see greater things than these.

Jesus answered and said to him: Do you believe, be cause I said to you, I saw you under the fig-tree? You shall see greater things than these. And he said to him: Verily, verily I say to you, From this time you shall see heaven opened, and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of man.

Jesus saith to them, Fill these jars with water. And they filled them to the brim.

There in the Temple [area] He found people selling oxen, sheep and pigeons. [i.e., for use as sacrifices]. Also cashiers were sitting there. [Note: These people exchanged foreign coins so visitors to Jerusalem could make purchases and pay taxes].

and said to those who sold doves, Take these hence; make not my Father's house a house of merchandise.

Then the Jews answered and said to him, What sign do you show us, that you do these things?

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.

But Jesus would not trust Himself to them [i.e., to the care of these Jewish leaders] because He knew all men,

this man came to Jesus in the night, and said to him, Rabbi, we know that thou art a teacher come from God: for no man can do these miracles which thou dost, unless God be with him.

Nicodemus answered and said unto him, How can these things be?

Jesus answered and said to him, Art thou a teacher of Israel, and knowest not these things?

After these things Jesus and his disciples went into the land of Judea; and there he abode with them, and baptised.

John [the Immerser] was also immersing people in Aenon, near Salem [Note: These locations are thought to have been in northeastern Judea, near the Jordan River], because there was a lot of water there; so people were coming to be immersed.

These disciples went to John and said to him, "Rabbi, look, that man who was with you on the east side of the Jordan River [i.e., Jesus], whom you testified about, is immersing people and everyone is going to him." [Note: Actually, it was Jesus' disciples who did the immersing. See 4:2].

But the time is coming, and is even now here, when the true worshippers will give worship to the Father in the true way of the spirit, for these are the worshippers desired by the Father.

Do you not say, 'It wants four months yet to the harvest'? But look round, I tell you, and observe these plains-- they are already ripe for the sickle.

And, when these Samaritans had come to Jesus, they begged him to stay with them, and he stayed there two days.

After these two days Jesus went away from there into Galilee.

AFTER these things there was a feast of the Jews, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.

In these lay a multitude of sick, blind, lame, withered.

After these things Jesus findeth him in the temple, and said unto him, Take care; thou art made whole: sin no more, lest something worse befall thee.

and on this account the Jews persecuted Jesus, because he had done these things on the sabbath.

Then Jesus answered and said to them, I tell you most truly, the Son can do nothing of himself, but what he sees the Father do; for whatever he does, these things also does the Son in like manner.

For the Father loves the Son, and shows him all things which he does; and greater works than these will he show him, that you may wonder.

but I receive not testimony from a man; but I say these things that you may be saved.

But I have greater testimony than John's; for the works which the Father has given me to finish, these works which I do, testify of me that the Father has sent me;

Search the scriptures; for ye suppose in them ye have eternal life: and these are they which testify of me.

AFTER these things Jesus went across the lake of Galilee, the Tiberias.

Then Jesus lining up his eyes, and seeing many people come to him, said to Philip, Whence shall we buy bread that these may eat?

Philip responded to Him, The loaves of two hundred denaria are not sufficient for these, that each one may receive a little.

There is a boy here who has five barley loaves and two fishes; but what are these for so many?

Jesus answered, "Have these people recline [on the ground]." Now there was a lot of grass in that place. So, the men, numbering about five thousand, reclined [on the grass].

When the crowd saw that neither Jesus nor his disciples were there, they got into these boats and went to Capernaum to look for Jesus.

Jesus answered them, "Truly, truly I tell you, it is not because you saw Signs that you are in quest of me, but because you ate these loaves and had your fill.

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

Then many of his disciples, when they heard these things, said, "This is a difficult saying! Who can understand it?"

From this, many of his disciples went back at these things, and walked no more with him.

And after these things Jesus walked in Galilee: for he would not walk in Judaea, because the Jews sought to kill him.

So His brothers said to Him, "Leave these parts and go into Judaea, that not only we but your disciples also may witness the miracles which you perform.

For no man doeth anything in secret, and himself seeketh to be known openly. If thou doest these things, manifest thyself to the world.

And having said these things unto them, he abode'still in Galilee.

The Jews meanwhile kept looking for him at feast, and saying, "Where is he?" "I am no longer in the world, but these are in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father, keep through thine own Name these whom thou hast given me, that they may be one as we are one.

No one, however, was speaking openly about him, for fear of the Jews. "But now I am coming to thee, and I am speaking these things while I am in the world, so that they may have my joy in all its fulness in themselves.

And many of the multitude believed on him, and said: When the Christ comes, will he do more signs than these which this man has done?

The Pharisees heard the multitude murmuring these things concerning him; and the chief priests and the Pharisees sent officers to take him.

Some of the multitude therefore, when they heard these words, said, This is of a truth the prophet.

But these people who have no knowledge of the law are cursed.

Then Jesus raising himself up, and seeing no person but the woman, said unto her, Woman, where are these thine accusers? hath no man condemned thee?

"Even if I am giving testimony about myself," replied Jesus, "my testimony is true; for I know where I came from and where I am going, but you know neither of these two things.

These words spake he in the treasury, as he taught in the temple: and no man took him; because his hour was not yet come.

I have many things to speak and to judge concerning you: howbeit he that sent me is true; and the things which I heard from him, these speak I unto the world.

Jesus therefore said, When ye have lifted up the Son of man, then shall ye know that I am he , and that I do nothing of myself, but as the Father taught me, I speak these things.

As he spake these things, many believed on him.

Saying these things he spit on the ground, and made a paste of the spittle, and put the paste on his eyes,

Certain from among the Pharisees, therefore, were saying - This man is not, from God, because, the Sabbath, he keepeth not. Others, howeverwere saying - How can a sinful man, such signs as these, be doing? And there was, a division, among them.

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

These things said his parents, because they feared the Jews: for the Jews had agreed already, that if any man should confess him to be Christ, he should be put out of the synagogue.

Those of the Pharisees who were with him heard these things, and said unto him, Are we also blind?

and other sheep I have that are not of this fold, these also it behoveth me to bring, and my voice they will hear, and there shall become one flock -- one shepherd.

No one takes it away from me; I give it up of myself. I have power to give it up, and I have power to take it again. These orders I have from my Father.

Therefore, again, there came a division among the Jews, because of these words,

others said, 'These sayings are not those of a demoniac; is a demon able blind men's eyes to open?'

Jesus answered them, 'I told you, and ye do not believe; the works that I do in the name of my Father, these testify concerning me;

Jesus answered them, Many good works have I shown you from the Father; for which of these works do you stone me?

"Are there not," replied Jesus, "these words in your Law--'I said "Ye are gods"'?

But if he walks at night he [might] stumble, because there is no light [to see by]. [Note: These words have a figurative meaning as Jesus is speaking about His mission in life].

These things he said, and after this he saith to them, 'Lazarus our friend hath fallen asleep, but I go on that I may awake him;'

And Jesus spake of his death: but these supposed that he speaks of the repose of sleep.

"Yes, Lord," she said, "I do believe you are the Christ, the Son of God, who was to come into the world" ??28 and with these words she went off to call her sister Mary, telling her secretly, "The Teacher is here, and he is calling for you."

And these things having said, she went away, and called Mary her sister privately, saying, 'The Teacher is present, and doth call thee;'

When Jesus saw her and her Jewish friends, who had come with her, crying, He felt distressed in His spirit and [visibly] troubled [Note: This last word means to shake with emotion, and seems to have been caused by His deep sympathy for these grieving people],

I was certain that your ears are at all times open to me, but I said it because of these who are here, so that they may see that you sent me.

And these things saying, with a loud voice he cried out, 'Lazarus, come forth;'

At first, his disciples didn't understand these things. However, when Jesus had been glorified, they remembered that these things had been written about him and that people had done these things to him.

Now there were certain Greeks among those going up to Jerusalem to worship [God] at the [Passover] Festival [Note: These people were God-fearing Gentiles like Cornelius. See Acts 10].

these then came near to Philip, who is from Bethsaida of Galilee, and were asking him, saying, 'Sir, we wish to see Jesus;'

By these words he indicated what death he was destined to die.

while ye have the light, believe in the light, that sons of light ye may become.' These things spake Jesus, and having gone away, he was hid from them,

And, although such signs, as these, he had done before them, they were not believing on him: -

This was so that these words, which Isaiah the prophet had spoken, would be fulfilled [Isa. 53:1], "Lord, who has believed our message? And who has the Lord's power been shown to?"

The reason why they were unable to believe is given by Isaiah elsewhere, in these words--

these things said Isaiah, when he saw his glory, and spake of him.

are relocated after vs 50] With these words Jesus went away and hid from them.

Jesus answered and said to him, 'That which I do thou hast not known now, but thou shalt know after these things;'

If you understand these things, how blessed you are if you put them into practice!

These things having said, Jesus was troubled in the spirit, and did testify, and said, 'Verily, verily, I say to you, that one of you will deliver me up;'

Dost thou not believe that I am in the Father, and that the Father is in me? the words which I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father, who dwelleth in me, he performeth these works.

Believe Me that I am in the Father and the Father is in Me; otherwise believe [Me] because of the [very] works themselves [which you have witnessed].

Truly, I tell all of you emphatically, the one who believes in me will also do what I'm doing. He will do even greater things than these, because I'm going to the Father.

'These things I have spoken to you, remaining with you,

these things I have spoken to you, that my joy in you may remain, and your joy may be full.

I am giving you these commandments so that you may love one another."

They will do all these things to you on account of my name, because they do not know the one who sent me.

If I had not done among them the works (attesting miracles) which no one else [ever] did, they would not have [the guilt of their] sin; but now [the fact is that] they have both seen [these works] and have hated Me [and continue to hate Me] and My Father as well.

'These things I have spoken to you, that ye may not be stumbled,

and these things they will do to you, because they did not know the Father, nor me.

But these things I have spoken to you, that when the hour may come, ye may remember them, that I said them to you, and these things to you from the beginning I did not say, because I was with you;
