now he did not say this of his own accord; but as high priest that year he prophesied that Jesus was about to die in behalf of the nation,

and not in behalf of the nation alone, but in order that he might gather into one the widely scattered children of God.

So they kept looking for Jesus and saying to one another, as they stood in the Temple, "What do you think??hat he will not come to the feast at all?"

"Why was not this perfume sold for fifty dollars, and the proceeds given to the poor?"

This he said not because he cared for the poor, but because he was a thief, and, carrying the purse,

for the poor you have with you always, but me you have not always."

When the great mass of the Jews learned that Jesus was there, they came not alone because of Jesus, but to see Lazarus also, whom he had raised from the dead.

Fear not, daughter of Zion, Behold thy King cometh seated upon an ass's colt.

His disciples did not understand these things at first; but when Jesus had been glorified, then they remembered that these things had been written concerning him, and what they had done to him.

He who loves his life loses it; and he who regards not his life in this world shall keep it for eternal life.

"It is not for my sake," answered Jesus, "that the voice came, but for your sakes.

"The Light is among you a little longer," answered Jesus. "Walk while you have the Light, lest darkness overtake you. He who walks in the darkness does not know where he is going.

With these words Jesus went away and hid himself from them. But although he had wrought such signs in their presence, still they did not believe in him.

This was why they could not believe, because Isaiah said again.

Nevertheless, even among the rulers many believed on him, but did not confess in on account of the Pharisees, for fear lest they be put out of the Synagogue.

"He who believes in me believes not in me, but in Him who sent me; and he who sees me sees him who sent me.

And if any one hears my words and does not keep them, it is not I who judge him; for I am not come to judge the world, but to save the world.

He who rejects me, and does not receive my words, has indeed a judge. The message which I have spoken, that shall judge him in the Last Day,

Jesus answered him, "What I am doing you do not understand now, but you will understand it later."

Peter answered, "No, never shall you wash my feet." "If I do not wash you," said Jesus, "you have no part in me."

"Lord," said Simon Peter, "not my feet only, but also my hands and my head."

Jesus said: "He who has bathed needs only to have his feet washed, and he is altogether clean; and you are clean, but not all of you."

(For he knew who should betray him, for that reason he said that they were not every one of them clean.)

In solemn truth I tell you that a slave is not greater than his master, neither is a messenger greater than the one who sends him.

I do not speak concerning all of you. I know whom I have chosen, but it is that the Scripture may be fulfilled, which says. "He who eats my bread has lifted up his heel against me.

for some were thinking, as Judas kept the purse, that Jesus meant to tell him, "Buy the things that we need for the feast," or that he should give something to the poor.

When he had taken the piece of bread, Judas went out immediately; and it was night.

"Your life you will lay down for me? In solemn truth I tell you, the cock shall not crow before you have three times disowned me."

"Let not your hearts be troubled. You trust in God, trust in me also.

In my Father's house there are many rooms If it were not so, would I have told you that I went to prepare a place for you?

"We do not know where you are going Lord," said Thomas, "so how can we know the way?"

"Have I been so long among you, and yet you, Philip, have you not recognized me? He who has seen me has seen the Father. How can you say, 'Cause us to see the Father'?

"Do you not believe that I am in the Father and the Father in me? The words that I speak to you I speak not of myself; but the Father, who ever dwells in me, is doing his own work.

"The world cannot receive him because it does not see him nor know him, but you know him, for he is ever with you and within you.

"I will not leave you comfortless; I will come to you.

"How is it, Lord," said Judas (not Iscariot) "that you will manifest yourself to us and not to the world?"

"He that loves me not does not obey words, and yet the words to which you are listening are not mine, but the Father's who sent me.

"Peace I leave with you. My own peace I give to you. It is not the world's 'Peace' I give you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.

"I shall not talk with you much more, for the Prince of this world is coming.

"If any one does not abide in me he is thrown away like a branch and withers. Such branches are gathered up and thrown into the fire and burned.

"I no longer call you slaves, because a slave does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, because I have made known to you everything that I have learned from my Father.

"You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you, that you should go and bear fruit, and that your fruit should remain; so that whatever you ask the Father in my name, he may give it to you.

"do not forget that it hated me first.

"If you belonged to the world, the world would love its own; but because you do not belong to the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, for that reason the world hates you.

"Remember what I told you, 'A slave is not better than his master.' If they persecuted me, they will persecute you. If they have obeyed my word, they will obey yours also.

"But they will do all these things to you for my name's sake, because they know not Him who sent me.

"If I had not come and spoken to them, they would have no sin; but now they have no excuse for their sin.

"If I had not done among them such works as none ever did, they would have had no sin; but now they have both seen and hated both me and my Father.

"I have told you all this so that you may not stumble.

"And they will do these things because they have not known my Father, nor me.

"But I have told you these things, that when the time comes you may remember that I told you about them, myself. I did not, however, speak of these things at first, because I was with you.

"Yet?? am telling you the truth??y going is for your good. For unless I go away the Comforter will not come to you; but if I depart I will send him unto you.

of sin, because they do not believe in me;

But when he is come, that Spirit of Truth, he will guide you into the whole truth. For he will not speak on his own authority, but all that he hears he will speak, and will make known to you that which is to come.

So they kept asking. "What does that 'little while' mean of which he speaks? We do not know what he is talking about."

In that day you shall pray in my name; and I do not tell you that I will ask the Father on your behalf;

"Ah," said the disciples, "now you are speaking plain language, and not using figures.

Now we are sure that you know all things, and have no need for any one to question you; by this we believe that you came forth from God."

"behold the hour approaches and is already come when you will be scattered, each man to his home, and will leave me alone; and yet I am not alone, because the Father is with me.

"I am praying for them; I am not praying for the world, but for those whom thou hast given me; for they are thine,

I have given them thy word; and the world has hated them because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.

I am not asking that thou wilt take them out of the world, but that thou wilt protect them from the Evil One.

They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.

O righteous Father, though the world knew thee not, I have known thee, and these have known that though didst send me.

And I have declared??nd will declare??hy name unto them, that the love with which thou hast loved me may be in them, and that I may be in them."

(In order that the word which he had spoken might be fulfilled, "Of those whom thou hast given me I have not lost one.")

(The slave's name was Malchus.) Then Jesus said to Peter. "Put up your sword in its sheath. the cup which my Father has given me, shall I not drink it?"

The doorkeeper (a maid servant) then said to Peter, "Are not you also one of this man's disciples?" "No I am not," he answered.

Now Simon Peter was standing and warming himself. They said therefore to him, "You are not also one of his disciples, are you not?" He denied it, saying "I am not."

One of the slaves of the high priest, a relative of the man whose ear Peter had cut off, said, "Did not I myself see you with him in the garden."

From the house of Caiaphas they took Jesus to the Praetorium, and it was dawn. They themselves would not enter the Praetorium, in order that they might not be ceremonially defiled, but might be able to eat the Passover.

In reply they said, "If he had not been a criminal, we should not have handed him over you."

The Jews answered him, "We are not allowed to put anyone to death" (that the word of Jesus might be fulfilled in which he predicted the kind of death he was to die).

"I am not a Jew, am I?" replied Pilate; "It is your own nation and the high priests who have handed you over to me. What have you done?"

Jesus answered him. "My kingdom is not of this world. If my kingdom were of this world, then would my servants have fought hard that I should not be handed the Jews; but in reality my kingdom is not of such origins."

Then they all shouted again. "No, not him! Barabbas!" Now Barabbas was a robber.

Jesus made no answer. So Pilate said to him. "Do you not speak to me? Do you not know that I have power to release you, or power to crucify you?"

So the high priests of the Jews said to Pilate, "Do not write 'King of the Jews,' but 'He said, I am King of the Jews.'"

so the soldiers said one to another. "Let us not tear it. Let us draw lots, to see whose it shall be"??hat the Scripture might be fulfilled. They divided my garments among them, For my raiment did they cast lots. This was what the soldiers did.

But upon coming to Jesus they saw that he was already dead, and did not break his legs.

For this happened that the Scripture might be fulfilled, Not one of his bones shall be broken.

Nicodemus also (the one who visited Jesus by night, at first) came bringing a mixture of myrrh and aloes, weighing nearly a hundred pounds.

So she came running to Simon Peter and that other disciple whom Jesus loved, saying, "They have taken the Master out of the tomb, and we do not know where they have laid him!"

Stooping down he glanced in and saw the linen wrapping lying on the ground; but he did not go in.

and the napkin which had been about his head not lying with the wrappings, but rolled up in it's own place.

For not yet had they understood the Scripture, that he must rise again from the dead.

They said to her, "Woman, why are you weeping?" She answered, "Because they have taken away my Master, and I do not know where they have laid him."

When she had said this she turned around and saw Jesus standing there, but did not know that it was Jesus.

"Do not cling to me," said Jesus, "for I am not yet ascended to the Father. But go to my brothers and say to them, "'I am ascending to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.'"

But Thomas, one of the Twelve, who was called "The Twin." was not with them when Jesus came.

Accordingly the other disciples kept telling him, "We have seen the Lord." But he told them, "Unless I see in his hands the print of the nails, and thrust my finger into the print of the nails, and thrust my hand into his side, I will not believe it."

Then to Thomas he said: "Place your finger here, and see my hands; and place your hand here, and thrust it into my side, and become not unbelieving, but believing."

There were then many other signs which Jesus performed in the presence of his disciples, which have not been written in this book;

Simon Peter said to them, "I am going fishing." They answered him, "And we are going with you." So they went out and got into the boat, and throughout the night they caught nothing.

But when day was dawning Jesus stood on the beach. The disciples, however, did not recognize that it was Jesus.

And he said to them, "Cast your net on the right side of the boat, and you will find." So they cast it, and now they could not haul it in for the multitude of fishes.

The rest of the disciples came in the boat, for they were not far from shore??nly about a hundred yards??ragging in the net full of fish.

So Simon Peter went and dragged the net to shore, full of large fish, a hundred and fifty-three of them; but for all this number the net was not torn.

"Come and have breakfast," said Jesus to them. Not one of the disciples dared ask him, "Who are you?" Knowing that it was the Lord.

"Feed my sheep," said Jesus. "In solemn truth I tell you that when you were young, you used to put on your own girdle, and walk wherever you wished; but when you grow old you will stretch out your hands for some one to gird you, and carry you where you do not wish to go."
