Then their eyes were opened and they recognized Him; and He vanished from their sight.

They said to one another, “Were not our hearts burning within us while He was speaking to us on the road, while He was explaining the Scriptures to us?”

And they got up that very hour and returned to Jerusalem, and found gathered together the eleven and those who were with them,

They began to relate their experiences on the road and how He was recognized by them in the breaking of the bread.

While they were telling these things, He Himself stood in their midst and *said to them, “Peace be to you.”

But they were startled and frightened and thought that they were seeing a spirit.

While they still could not believe it because of their joy and amazement, He said to them, “Have you anything here to eat?”

They gave Him a piece of a broiled fish;

And they, after worshiping Him, returned to Jerusalem with great joy,

They asked him, “What then? Are you Elijah?” And he *said, “I am not.” “Are you the Prophet?” And he answered, “No.”

Then they said to him, “Who are you, so that we may give an answer to those who sent us? What do you say about yourself?”

Now they had been sent from the Pharisees.

They asked him, and said to him, “Why then are you baptizing, if you are not the Christ, nor Elijah, nor the Prophet?”

The two disciples heard him speak, and they followed Jesus.

And Jesus turned and saw them following, and *said to them, “What do you seek?” They said to Him, “Rabbi (which translated means Teacher), where are You staying?”

He *said to them, “Come, and you will see.” So they came and saw where He was staying; and they stayed with Him that day, for it was about the tenth hour.

When the wine ran out, the mother of Jesus *said to Him, “They have no wine.”

Jesus *said to them, “Fill the waterpots with water.” So they filled them up to the brim.

And He *said to them, “Draw some out now and take it to the headwaiter.” So they took it to him.

After this He went down to Capernaum, He and His mother and His brothers and His disciples; and they stayed there a few days.

So when He was raised from the dead, His disciples remembered that He said this; and they believed the Scripture and the word which Jesus had spoken.

And they came to John and said to him, “Rabbi, He who was with you beyond the Jordan, to whom you have testified, behold, He is baptizing and all are coming to Him.”

At this point His disciples came, and they were amazed that He had been speaking with a woman, yet no one said, “What do You seek?” or, “Why do You speak with her?”

They went out of the city, and were coming to Him.

Do you not say, ‘There are yet four months, and then comes the harvest’? Behold, I say to you, lift up your eyes and look on the fields, that they are white for harvest.

So when the Samaritans came to Jesus, they were asking Him to stay with them; and He stayed there two days.

and they were saying to the woman, “It is no longer because of what you said that we believe, for we have heard for ourselves and know that this One is indeed the Savior of the world.”

So when He came to Galilee, the Galileans received Him, having seen all the things that He did in Jerusalem at the feast; for they themselves also went to the feast.

So he inquired of them the hour when he began to get better. Then they said to him, “Yesterday at the seventh hour the fever left him.”

They asked him, “Who is the man who said to you, ‘Pick up your pallet and walk’?”

so that all will honor the Son even as they honor the Father. He who does not honor the Son does not honor the Father who sent Him.

A large crowd followed Him, because they saw the signs which He was performing on those who were sick.

Jesus then took the loaves, and having given thanks, He distributed to those who were seated; likewise also of the fish as much as they wanted.

When they were filled, He *said to His disciples, “Gather up the leftover fragments so that nothing will be lost.”

So they gathered them up, and filled twelve baskets with fragments from the five barley loaves which were left over by those who had eaten.

Therefore when the people saw the sign which He had performed, they said, “This is truly the Prophet who is to come into the world.”

So Jesus, perceiving that they were intending to come and take Him by force to make Him king, withdrew again to the mountain by Himself alone.

and after getting into a boat, they started to cross the sea to Capernaum. It had already become dark, and Jesus had not yet come to them.

Then, when they had rowed about three or four miles, they *saw Jesus walking on the sea and drawing near to the boat; and they were frightened.

So they were willing to receive Him into the boat, and immediately the boat was at the land to which they were going.

There came other small boats from Tiberias near to the place where they ate the bread after the Lord had given thanks.

So when the crowd saw that Jesus was not there, nor His disciples, they themselves got into the small boats, and came to Capernaum seeking Jesus.

When they found Him on the other side of the sea, they said to Him, “Rabbi, when did You get here?”

Therefore they said to Him, “What shall we do, so that we may work the works of God?”

So they said to Him, “What then do You do for a sign, so that we may see, and believe You? What work do You perform?

Then they said to Him, “Lord, always give us this bread.”

They were saying, “Is not this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? How does He now say, ‘I have come down out of heaven’?”

It is written in the prophets, ‘And they shall all be taught of God.’ Everyone who has heard and learned from the Father, comes to Me.

Your fathers ate the manna in the wilderness, and they died.

Therefore many of His disciples, when they heard this said, “This is a difficult statement; who can listen to it?”

But there are some of you who do not believe.” For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were who did not believe, and who it was that would betray Him.

So some of the people of Jerusalem were saying, “Is this not the man whom they are seeking to kill?

Look, He is speaking publicly, and they are saying nothing to Him. The rulers do not really know that this is the Christ, do they?

So they were seeking to seize Him; and no man laid his hand on Him, because His hour had not yet come.

But many of the crowd believed in Him; and they were saying, “When the Christ comes, He will not perform more signs than those which this man has, will He?”

Some of the people therefore, when they heard these words, were saying, “This certainly is the Prophet.”

The officers then came to the chief priests and Pharisees, and they said to them, “Why did you not bring Him?”

They answered him, “You are not also from Galilee, are you? Search, and see that no prophet arises out of Galilee.”

they *said to Him, “Teacher, this woman has been caught in adultery, in the very act.

They were saying this, testing Him, so that they might have grounds for accusing Him. But Jesus stooped down and with His finger wrote on the ground.

But when they persisted in asking Him, He straightened up, and said to them, “He who is without sin among you, let him be the first to throw a stone at her.”

When they heard it, they began to go out one by one, beginning with the older ones, and He was left alone, and the woman, where she was, in the center of the court.

Straightening up, Jesus said to her, “Woman, where are they? Did no one condemn you?”

So they were saying to Him, “Where is Your Father?” Jesus answered, “You know neither Me nor My Father; if you knew Me, you would know My Father also.”

So they were saying to Him, “Who are You?” Jesus said to them, “What have I been saying to you from the beginning?

They did not realize that He had been speaking to them about the Father.

They answered Him, “We are Abraham’s descendants and have never yet been enslaved to anyone; how is it that You say, ‘You will become free’?”

They answered and said to Him, “Abraham is our father.” Jesus *said to them, “If you are Abraham’s children, do the deeds of Abraham.

You are doing the deeds of your father.” They said to Him, “We were not born of fornication; we have one Father: God.”

Therefore they picked up stones to throw at Him, but Jesus hid Himself and went out of the temple.

So they were saying to him, “How then were your eyes opened?”

They said to him, “Where is He?” He *said, “I do not know.”

They *brought to the Pharisees the man who was formerly blind.

So they *said to the blind man again, “What do you say about Him, since He opened your eyes?” And he said, “He is a prophet.”

The Jews then did not believe it of him, that he had been blind and had received sight, until they called the parents of the very one who had received his sight,

His parents said this because they were afraid of the Jews; for the Jews had already agreed that if anyone confessed Him to be Christ, he was to be put out of the synagogue.

So a second time they called the man who had been blind, and said to him, “Give glory to God; we know that this man is a sinner.”

So they said to him, “What did He do to you? How did He open your eyes?”

They reviled him and said, “You are His disciple, but we are disciples of Moses.

They answered him, “You were born entirely in sins, and are you teaching us?” So they put him out.

Jesus heard that they had put him out, and finding him, He said, “Do you believe in the Son of Man?”

When he puts forth all his own, he goes ahead of them, and the sheep follow him because they know his voice.

A stranger they simply will not follow, but will flee from him, because they do not know the voice of strangers.”

This figure of speech Jesus spoke to them, but they did not understand what those things were which He had been saying to them.

The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I came that they may have life, and have it abundantly.

I have other sheep, which are not of this fold; I must bring them also, and they will hear My voice; and they will become one flock with one shepherd.

My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me;

and I give eternal life to them, and they will never perish; and no one will snatch them out of My hand.

Therefore they were seeking again to seize Him, and He eluded their grasp.

Now Jesus had spoken of his death, but they thought that He was speaking of literal sleep.

Then the Jews who were with her in the house, and consoling her, when they saw that Mary got up quickly and went out, they followed her, supposing that she was going to the tomb to weep there.

and said, “Where have you laid him?” They *said to Him, “Lord, come and see.”

So they removed the stone. Then Jesus raised His eyes, and said, “Father, I thank You that You have heard Me.

I knew that You always hear Me; but because of the people standing around I said it, so that they may believe that You sent Me.”

So from that day on they planned together to kill Him.

So they were seeking for Jesus, and were saying to one another as they stood in the temple, “What do you think; that He will not come to the feast at all?”

Now the chief priests and the Pharisees had given orders that if anyone knew where He was, he was to report it, so that they might seize Him.

So they made Him a supper there, and Martha was serving; but Lazarus was one of those reclining at the table with Him.

The large crowd of the Jews then learned that He was there; and they came, not for Jesus’ sake only, but that they might also see Lazarus, whom He raised from the dead.

On the next day the large crowd who had come to the feast, when they heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem,
