Then they said to Him, Where is your father? Jesus said to them, You neither know Me nor My Father. If you had known Me, you would have known My Father also.

Jesus spoke these words in the treasury, as He taught in the temple. And no man laid hands upon Him, for His hour had not yet come.

Then they took up stones to throw at Him. But Jesus hid Himself and went forth out of the temple, going through the midst of them, and passed on by.

And when He had spoken these things, He spat on the ground and made clay from the spittle. And He anointed the eyes of the blind man with the clay.

Then the neighbors and those who had seen him before, that he was blind, said, Is this not he who was sitting and begging?

Then again the Pharisees also asked him how he had received his sight. He said to them, He put clay upon my eyes, and I washed, and I see.

But the Jews did not believe concerning him, that he had been blind and had received his sight, until they called the parents of him having received sight.

His parents spoke these things because they feared the Jews, for the Jews had already agreed that if anyone confessed that He was Christ, he should be put out of the synagogue.

Jesus heard that they had cast him out; and finding him, He said to him, Do you believe on the Son of God?

And he who had died came out, bound hand and foot with sheets, and his face was bound with a cloth. Jesus said to them, Untie him and let him go!

Then many of the Jews who came to Mary, and had seen the things which Jesus did, believed on Him.

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

And all the chief priests and the Pharisees had given commands, that if anyone knew where He was, he should make it known so that they might seize Him.

Then, six days before the Passover, Jesus came to Bethany, where Lazarus was (who had died, whom He raised from the dead).

On the next day, when they heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem, a great crowd who had come to the Feast

But His disciples did not know these things at the first. But when Jesus was glorified, then they remembered that these things were written of Him, and that they had done these things to Him.

Because of this the crowd also met Him, because they heard that He had done this miracle.

But though He had done so many miracles before them, yet they did not believe on Him,

So after He had washed their feet and had taken His garments and had reclined again, He said to them, Do you know what I have done to you?

When Jesus had said this, He was troubled in spirit, and testified and said, Truly, truly, I say to you that one of you shall betray Me.

For some thought, because Judas had the moneybag, that Jesus had said to him, Buy what we have need of for the feast; or that he should give something to the poor.

And now Father, glorify Me with Yourself with the glory which I had with You before the world was.
