The true Light was that which illumines every man by its coming into the world.

and said to him, "It is usual to put on the good wine first, and when people have drunk freely, then that which is inferior. But you have kept the good wine till now."

When however He had risen from among the dead, His disciples recollected that He had said this; and they believed the Scripture and the teaching which Jesus had given them.

He came to Jesus by night and said, "Rabbi, we know that you are a teacher from God; for no one can do these miracles which you are doing, unless God is with him.

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.

And this is the test by which men are judged--the Light has come into the world, and men loved the darkness more than they loved the Light, because their deeds were wicked.

"I have food to eat," He replied, "of which you do not know."

I sent you to reap a harvest which is not the result of your own labours. Others have laboured, and you are getting benefit from their labours."

Then the father recollected that that was the time at which Jesus had said to him, "Your son has recovered," and he and his whole household became believers.

There is Another who gives testimony concerning me, and I know that the testimony is true which He offers concerning me.

But the testimony on my behalf which I accept is not from man; though I say all this in order that you may be saved.

"But the testimony which I have is weightier than that of John; for the work the Father has assigned to me for me to bring it to completion--the very work which I am doing--affords testimony concerning me that the Father has sent me.

A vast multitude followed Him, because they witnessed the miracles on the sick which He was constantly performing.

Then they were willing to take Him on board; and in a moment the boat reached the shore at the point to which they were going.

Bestow your pains not on the food which perishes, but on the food that remains unto the Life of the Ages--that food which will be the Son of Man's gift to you; for on Him the Father, God, has set His seal."

For God's bread is that which comes down out of Heaven and gives Life to the world."

Now the Jews began to find fault about Him because of His claiming to be the bread which came down out of Heaven.

I am the living bread come down out of Heaven. If a man eats this bread, he shall live for ever. Moreover the bread which I will give is my flesh given for the life of the world."

This is the bread which came down out of Heaven; it is unlike that which your forefathers ate--for they ate and yet died. He who eats this bread shall live for ever."

It is the spirit which gives Life. The flesh confers no benefit whatever. The words I have spoken to you are spirit and are Life.

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.

He referred to the Spirit which those who believed in Him were to receive; for the Spirit was not bestowed as yet, because Jesus had not yet been glorified.

"Many things I have to speak and to judge concerning you. But He who sent me is true, and the things which I have heard from Him are those which I have come into the world to speak."

But, in fact, you are longing to kill me, a man who has spoken to you the truth which I have heard from God. Abraham did not do that.

Which of *you* convicts me of sin? If I speak the truth, why do you not believe me?

Thereupon they took up stones with which to stone Him, but He hid Himself and went away out of the Temple.

Now the day on which Jesus made the clay and opened the man's eyes was the Sabbath.

I have also other sheep--which do not belong to this fold. Those also I must bring, and they will listen to my voice; and they shall become one flock under one Shepherd.

Again the Jews brought stones with which to stone Him.

Jesus remonstrated with them. "Many good deeds," He said, "have I shown you as coming from the Father; for which of them are you going to stone me?"

So they gave a dinner there in honour of Jesus, at which Martha waited at table, but Lazarus was one of the guests who were with Him.

He who sets me at naught and does not receive my teachings is not left without a judge: the Message which I have spoken will judge him on the last day.

Then He poured water into a basin, and proceeded to wash the feet of the disciples and to wipe them with the towel which He had put round Him.

I am not speaking of all of you. I know whom I have chosen, but things are as they are in order that the Scripture may be fulfilled, which says, 'He who eats my bread has lifted up his heel against me.'

The disciples began looking at one another, at a loss to know to which of them He was referring.

In most solemn truth I tell you that he who trusts in me--the things which I do he shall do also; and greater things than these he shall do, because I am going to the Father.

He who has no love for me does not obey my teaching; and yet the teaching to which you are listening is not mine, but is the teaching of the Father who sent me.

but it is in order that the world may know that I love the Father, and that it is in obedience to the command which the Father gave me that I thus act. Rise, let us be going."

Already you are cleansed--through the teaching which I have given you.

If any one does not continue in me, he is like the unfruitful branch which is at once thrown away and then withers up. Such branches they gather up and throw into the fire and they are burned.

But this has been so, in order that the saying may be fulfilled which stands written in their Law, 'They have hated me without any reason.'

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."

I have glorified Thee on earth, having done perfectly the work which by Thine appointment has been mine to do.

For the truths which Thou didst teach me I have taught them. And they have received them, and have known for certain that I came out from Thy presence, and have believed that Thou didst send me.

I am now no longer in the world, but they are in the world and I am coming to Thee. "Holy Father, keep them true to Thy name--the name which Thou hast given me to bear--that they may be one, even as we are.

And the glory which Thou hast given me I have given them, that they may be one, just as we are one:

I in them and Thou in me; that they may stand perfected in one; that the world may come to understand that Thou didst send me and hast loved them with the same love as that with which Thou hast loved me.

"Father, those whom Thou hast given me--I desire that where I am they also may be with me, that they may see the glory--my glory--my gift from Thee, which Thou hast given me because Thou didst love me before the creation of the world.

And I have made known Thy name to them and will make it known, that the love with which Thou hast loved me may be in them, and that I may be in them."

After offering this prayer Jesus went out with His disciples to a place on the further side of the Ravine of the Cedars, where there was a garden which He entered--Himself and His disciples.

Jesus therefore said to Peter, "Put back your sword. Shall I refuse to drink the cup of sorrow which the Father has given me to drink?"

They said this that the words might be fulfilled in which Jesus predicted the kind of death He was to die.

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.

For all this took place that the Scripture might be fulfilled which declares, "Not one of His bones shall be broken."

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

and the towel, which had been placed over the face of Jesus, not lying with the cloths, but folded up and put by itself.

There were also a great number of other signs which Jesus performed in the presence of the disciples, which are not recorded in this book.

Jesus told them to fetch some of the fish which they had just caught.

This was now the third occasion on which Jesus showed Himself to the disciples after He had risen from among the dead.

This He said to indicate the kind of death by which that disciple would bring glory to God; and after speaking thus He said to him, "Follow me."

But there are also many other things which Jesus did--so vast a number indeed that if they were all described in detail, I suppose that the world itself could not contain the books that would have to be written.
