"What then?" they inquired; "are you Elijah?" "I am not," he said. "Are you the Prophet?" "No," he answered.

So they pressed the question. "Who are you?" they said--"that we may take an answer to those who sent us. What account do you give of yourself?"

Then Jesus turned round, and seeing them following He asked them, "What is your wish?" "Rabbi," they replied--'Rabbi' means 'Teacher' --"where are you staying?"

So the Jews asked Him, "What proof of your authority do you exhibit to us, seeing that you do these things?"

and did not need any one's testimony concerning a man, for He of Himself knew what was in the man.

In most solemn truth I tell you that we speak what we know, and give testimony of that of which we were eye-witnesses, and yet you all reject our testimony.

But he who does what is honest and right comes to the light, in order that his actions may be plainly shown to have been done in God.

What He has seen and heard, to that He bears witness; but His testimony no one receives.

Just then His disciples came, and were surprised to find Him talking with a woman. Yet not one of them asked Him, "What is your wish?" or "Why are you talking with her?"

So he inquired of them at what hour he had shown improvement. "Yesterday, about seven o'clock," they replied, "the fever left him."

"In most solemn truth I tell you," replied Jesus, "that the Son can do nothing of Himself--He can only do what He sees the Father doing; for whatever He does, that the Son does in like manner.

they who have done what is right to the resurrection of Life, and they whose actions have been evil to the resurrection of judgement.

And the Father who sent me, *He* has given testimony concerning me. None of you have ever either heard His voice or seen what He is like.

He said this to put Philip to the test, for He Himself knew what He was going to do.

"There is a boy here with five barley loaves and a couple of fish: but what is that among so many?"

"What are we to do," they asked, "in order to carry out the things that God requires?"

"What miracle then," they asked, "do you perform for us to see and become believers in you? What do you *do*?

They kept asking, "Is not this man Joseph's son? Is he not Jesus, whose father and mother we know? What does he mean by now saying, 'I have come down out of Heaven'?"

"Does this seem incredible to you? What then if you were to see the Son of Man ascending again where He was before?

What do those words of his mean, 'You will look for me, but will not find me, and where I am you cannot come'?"

"Does our Law," he asked, "judge a man without first hearing what he has to say and ascertaining what his conduct is?"

Now, in the Law, Moses has ordered us to stone such women to death. But what do you say?"

That is why I told you that you will die in your sins; for, unless you believe that I am He, that is what will happen."

And He who sent me is with me. He has not left me alone: for I do always what is pleasing to Him."

"We are descendants of Abraham," they answered, "and have never at any time been in slavery to any one. What do those words of yours mean, 'You shall become free'?"

The words I speak are those I have learnt in the presence of the Father. Therefore you also should do what you have heard from your father."

The father whose sons you are is the Devil; and you desire to do what gives him pleasure. *He* was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand firm in the truth--for there is no truth in him. Whenever he utters his lie, he utters it out of his own store; for he is a liar, and the father of lies.

And there was a division among them. So again they asked the once blind man, "What is your account of him? --for he opened your eyes." "He is a Prophet," he replied.

"What did he do to you?" they asked; "how did he open your eyes?"

Jesus spoke to them in this figurative language, but they did not understand what He meant.

What my Father has given me is more precious than all besides; and no one is able to wrest anything from my Father's hand.

though some of them went off to the Pharisees and told them what He had done.

Therefore the High Priests and the Pharisees held a meeting of the Sanhedrin. "What steps are we taking?" they asked one another; "for this man is performing a great number of miracles.

They therefore looked out for Jesus, and asked one another as they stood in the Temple, "What do you think? --will he come to the Festival at all?"

The reason he said this was not that he cared for the poor, but that he was a thief, and that being in charge of the money-box, he used to steal what was put into it.

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.

In most solemn truth I tell you that unless the grain of wheat falls into the ground and dies, it remains what it was--a single grain; but that if it dies, it yields a rich harvest.

Now is my soul full of trouble; and what shall I say? Father, save me from this hour. But for this purpose I have come to this hour.

The crowd answered Him, "We have heard out of the Law that the Christ remains for ever. In what sense do you say that the Son of Man must be lifted up? Who is that Son of Man?"

Because I have not spoken on my own authority; but the Father who sent me, Himself gave me a command what to say and in what words to speak.

And I know that His command is the Life of the Ages. What therefore I speak, I speak just as the Father has bidden me."

"What I am doing," answered Jesus, "for the present you do not know, but afterwards you shall know."

So after He had washed their feet, put on His garments again, and returned to the table, He said to them, "Do you understand what I have done to you?

For I have set you an example in order that you may do what I have done to you.

Some, however, supposed that because Judas had the money-box Jesus meant, "Buy what we require for the Festival," or that he should give something to the poor.

"Master," said Thomas, "we do not know where you are going. In what sense do we know the way?"

Believe me, all of you, that I am in the Father and that the Father is in me; or at any rate, believe me because of what I do.

"If you continue in me and my sayings continue in you, ask what you will and it shall be done for you.

You are my friends, if you do what I command you.

No longer do I call you servants, because a servant does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, because all that I have heard from the Father I have made known to you.

Bear in mind what I said to you, 'A servant is not superior to his master.' If they have persecuted me, they will also persecute you: if they have obeyed my teaching, they will obey yours also.

But when He has come--the Spirit of Truth--He will guide you into all the truth. For He will not speak as Himself originating what He says, but all that He hears He will speak, and He will make known the future to you.

He will glorify me, because He will take of what is mine and will make it known to you.

Everything that the Father has is mine; that is why I said that the Spirit of Truth takes of what is mine and will make it known to you.

Some of His disciples therefore said to one another, "What does this mean which He is telling us, 'A little while and you do not see me, and again a little while and you shall see me,' and 'Because I am going to the Father'?"

So they asked one another repeatedly, "What can that 'little while' mean which He speaks of? We do not understand His words."

Jesus perceived that they wanted to ask Him, and He said, "Is this what you are questioning one another about--my saying, 'A little while and you do not see me, and again a little while and you shall see me'?

Why do you question me? Question those who heard what it was I said to them: these witnesses here know what I said."

Accordingly Pilate came out to them and inquired, "What accusation have you to bring against this man?"

"Am I a Jew?" exclaimed Pilate; "it is your own nation and the High Priests who have handed you over to me. What have you done?"

"What is truth?" said Pilate. But no sooner had he spoken the words than he went out again to the Jews and told them, "I find no crime in him.

"What is your origin?" he asked. But Jesus gave him no answer.

"What I have written I have written," was Pilate's answer.

So they said to one another, "Do not let us tear it. Let us draw lots for it." This happened that the Scripture might be fulfilled which says, "They shared my garments among them, and drew lots for my clothing." That was just what the soldiers did.

On seeing him, Peter asked Jesus, "And, Master, what about him?"

"If I desire him to remain till I come," replied Jesus, "what concern is that of yours? You, yourself, must follow me."

Hence the report spread among the brethren that that disciple would never die. Yet Jesus did not say, "He is not to die," but, "If I desire him to remain till I come, what concern is that of yours?"
