"If a child receives circumcision on the Sabbath, in order that the Law of Moses may not be broken, how can you be angry with me because I made a man sound and well on the Sabbath? "Do not judge according to appearance. Judge justly." Then some of the men of Jerusalem were saying. "Is not this the man they are seeking to kill? "And look! he is speaking boldly and they are saying nothing to him. Can it possibly be that the rulers have really discovered that he is the Christ? "But we know this man and where he is from; but when the Christ comes no one will know where he comes from." So Jesus cried aloud as he was teaching in the Temple, and said: "You both know me and you know where I am from; and I am not come on my own authority, but he who sent me is trustworthy, and him you do not know.

Jesus said to them. "I have shown you many good deeds from my Father. For which of these are you going to stone me?" "We are not going to stone you for a good deed," answered the Jews, "but for blasphemy, because you, a mere man, are making yourself God." "Is it written in your law," replied Jesus, "I said, You are gods? "If those to whom the word of God came are called gods (and the Scripture cannot be annulled), do you mean to tell me, whom the Father has sanctified and sent into the world, 'You are blaspheming,' because I said, 'I am the Son of God'?
