He is not here, he has come back to life: have in mind what he said to you when he was still in Galilee, saying,

And then, two of them, on that very day, were going to a little town named Emmaus, which was about seven miles from Jerusalem.

And he said to them, What things? And they said, The things to do with Jesus of Nazareth, who was a prophet, great in his acts and his words, before God and all the people:

And it was not there; then they came saying that they had seen a vision of angels who said that he was living.

And some of those who were with us went to the place, and saw that it was as the women had said, but him they did not see.

Was it not necessary for the Christ to go through these things, and to come into his glory?

And they came near the town to which they were going, and he seemed as if he was going on;

And when he was seated with them at table, he took the bread, and said words of blessing and, making division of it, he gave it to them.

And they said to one another, Were not our hearts burning in us while he was talking to us on the way, making clear to us the holy Writings?

And while they were saying these things, he himself was among them, and said to them, Peace be with you!

And he said to them, These are the words which I said to you when I was still with you, how it was necessary for all the things which are in the writings of Moses and the prophets and in the Psalms about me, to be put into effect.

And while he was doing so, he went from them and was taken up into heaven.

From the first he was the Word, and the Word was in relation with God and was God.

This Word was from the first in relation with God.

All things came into existence through him, and without him nothing was.

What came into existence in him was life, and the life was the light of men.

There was a man sent from God, whose name was John.

He himself was not the light: he was sent to give witness about the light.

The true light, which gives light to every man, was then coming into the world.

He was in the world, the world which came into being through him, but the world had no knowledge of him.

Whose birth was from God and not from blood, or from an impulse of the flesh and man's desire.

John gave witness about him, crying, This is he of whom I said, He who is coming after me is put over me because he was in existence before me.

For the law was given through Moses; grace and the true way of life are ours through Jesus Christ.

And they said to him, What then? Are you Elijah? And he said, I am not. Are you the prophet? And his answer was, I am not.

John's answer was: I give baptism with water; but there is one among you of whom you have no knowledge;

These things took place at Bethany on the other side of the Jordan, where John was giving baptism.

This is he of whom I said, One is coming after me who is put over me because he was in existence before me.

I had no knowledge who he was, but he who sent me to give baptism with water said to me, The one on whom you see the Spirit coming down and resting, it is he who gives baptism with the Holy Spirit.

The day after, John was there again with two of his disciples;

And looking at Jesus while he was walking he said, See, there is the Lamb of God!

He said to them, Come and see. They went with him then and saw where he was living; and they were with him all that day: it was then about the tenth hour of the day.

Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, was one of the two men who, hearing what John said, went after Jesus.

Now Philip's town was Beth-saida, where Andrew and Peter came from.

Nathanael said to him, Where did you get knowledge of me? In answer Jesus said, Before Philip was talking with you, while you were still under the fig-tree, I saw you.

On the third day two people were going to be married at Cana in Galilee. The mother of Jesus was there:

After tasting the water which had now become wine, the master of the feast (having no idea where it came from, though it was clear to the servants who took the water out) sent for the newly-married man,

The time of the Passover of the Jews was near and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.

But his words were about that holy building which was his body.

Now while he was in Jerusalem at the feast of the Passover, a great number of people came to have faith in his name, after seeing the signs which he did.

He had no need for any witness about man; for he himself had knowledge of what was in man.

Now there was among the Pharisees a man named Nicodemus, who was one of the rulers of the Jews.

He came to Jesus by night and said to him, Rabbi, we are certain that you have come from God as a teacher, because no man would be able to do these signs which you do if God was not with him.

As the snake was lifted up by Moses in the waste land, even so it is necessary for the Son of man to be lifted up:

After these things Jesus and his disciples went into the land of Judaea, and there he was with them for some time, giving baptism.

Now John was then giving baptism at Aenon near Salim, because there was much water there; and people came and were given baptism.

And they went to John and said to him, Rabbi, the man who was with you on the other side of the Jordan, the man to whom you gave witness, is now giving baptism, and everyone is going to him.

And this was John's answer: A man is unable to have anything if it is not given to him from heaven.

You yourselves give witness that I said, I am not the Christ. What I said was, I am sent before the Christ.

Now when it was clear to the Lord that word had come to the ears of the Pharisees that Jesus was making more disciples than John and was giving them baptism

(Though, in fact, it was his disciples who gave baptism, not Jesus himself),

And it was necessary for him to go through Samaria.

So he came to a town of Samaria which was named Sychar, near to the bit of land which Jacob gave to his son Joseph:

Now Jacob's fountain was there. Jesus, being tired after his journey, was resting by the fountain. It was about the sixth hour.

You have had five husbands, and the man you have now is not your husband: that was truly said.

While this was taking place, the disciples were saying to Jesus, Master, take some food.

So when the people came to him they made request to him to be among them for a time, and he was there two days.

So he came to Cana in Galilee, where he had made the water wine. And there was a certain man of high position whose son was ill at Capernaum.

When it came to his ears that Jesus had come from Judaea into Galilee, he went to him and made a request that he would come down to his son, who was near to death, and make him well.

And while he was going down, his servants came to him and said, Your boy is living.

It was clear then to the father that this was the very time at which Jesus said to him, Your son is living. And he had faith in Jesus, he and all his family.

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

One man was there who had been ill for thirty-eight years.

When Jesus saw him there on the floor it was clear to him that he had been now a long time in that condition, and so he said to the man, Is it your desire to get well?

And the man became well straight away, and took up his bed and went. Now that day was the Sabbath.

Now he who had been made well had no knowledge who it was, Jesus having gone away because of the number of people who were in that place.

The man went away and said to the Jews that it was Jesus who had made him well.

And for this reason the Jews were turned against Jesus, because he was doing these things on the Sabbath.

But his answer was: My Father is still working even now, and so I am working.

For this cause the Jews had an even greater desire to put Jesus to death, because not only did he not keep the Sabbath but he said God was his Father, so making himself equal with God.

He was a burning and shining light, and for a time you were ready to be happy in his light.

Then Jesus went up the mountain and was seated there with his disciples.

Now the Passover, a feast of the Jews, was near.

Lifting up his eyes, Jesus saw a great number of people coming to where he was, and he said to Philip, Where may we get bread for all these people?

Jesus said, Let the people be seated. Now there was much grass in that place. And those seated on the grass were about five thousand.

And they took a boat and went across the sea in the direction of Capernaum. By then it was dark and still Jesus had not come to them.

The sea was getting rough because of a strong wind which was blowing.

Then they readily took him into the boat: and straight away the boat was at the land to which they were going.

So when the people saw that Jesus was not there, or his disciples, they got into those boats and went over to Capernaum looking for Jesus.

Jesus then said to them, Truly I say to you, What Moses gave you was not the bread from heaven; it is my Father who gives you the true bread from heaven.

And this was the answer of Jesus: I am the bread of life. He who comes to me will never be in need of food, and he who has faith in me will never be in need of drink.

Jesus said these things in the Synagogue while he was teaching at Capernaum.

What then will you say if you see the Son of man going up to where he was before?

But still some of you have no faith. For it was clear to Jesus from the first who they were who had no faith, and who it was who would be false to him.

He was talking of Judas, the son of Simon Iscariot. It was he who was to be false to Jesus--one of the twelve.

But the feast of the Jews, the feast of tents, was near.

And there was much discussion about him among the mass of the people. Some said, He is a good man; but others said, No, he is giving people false ideas.

Now in the middle of the feast Jesus went up to the Temple and was teaching.

This was the answer of Jesus: I have done one work and you are all surprised at it.

Then, when he was teaching in the Temple, Jesus said with a loud voice, You have knowledge of me and you have knowledge of where I come from; and I have not come of myself; but there is One who has sent me; he is true, but you have no knowledge of him.

Then they had a desire to take him: but no man put hands on him because his hour was still to come.

This he said of the Spirit which would be given to those who had faith in him: the Spirit had not been given then, because the glory of Jesus was still to come.

Do not the Writings say that the Christ comes of the seed of David and from Beth-lehem, the little town where David was?

So there was a division among the people because of him.

This was their answer: And do you come from Galilee? Make search and you will see that no prophet comes out of Galilee.

And early in the morning he came again into the Temple and all the people came to him and he was seated teaching them.

And when his words came to their ears, they went out one by one, starting with the oldest even to the last, because they were conscious of what was in their hearts: and Jesus was there by himself with the woman before him.

Jesus said these words in the place where the offerings were stored, while he was teaching in the Temple: but no man took him because his time was still to come.

And this was the answer Jesus gave them: Truly I say to you, Everyone who does evil is the servant of sin.

Jesus said to them, If God was your Father you would have love for me, because it was from God I came and am here. I did not come of myself, but he sent me.

You are the children of your father the Evil One and it is your pleasure to do his desires. From the first he was a taker of life; and he did not go in the true way because there is no true thing in him. When he says what is false, it is natural to him, for he is false and the father of what is false.
