Then was the feast of dedication at Jerusalem, and it was winter. And Jesus was walking in the temple, in Solomon's portico. Then the Jews came about him, and said to him, How long dost thou keep our soul in suspense? If thou art the Messiah, tell us plainly. read more.
Jesus answered them; I told you, and ye believed not: the works which I do in the name of my Father, they bear witness of me. But ye believe not, for ye are not of my sheep, as I told you. My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me: and I give unto them everlasting life and they shall never perish to eternity, and no person shall pluck them out of my hand. My Father, who gave them to me, is greater than all and no one shall pluck them out of my Father's hand. I and my Father are one. Then the Jews again brought stones, in order to stone him. Jesus said unto them, Many good works have I shewed you from my Father; for which work of these are ye going to stone me? The Jews answered him, For a good work we do not stone thee; but for blasphemy; and that thou, being merely a man, makest thyself God.

Temple » Herod the great's temple » Jesus teaches in
Jesus answered him, I spake openly to the world; I always taught in the synagogue, and in the temple, whither the Jews resorted; and in secret have I spoken nothing.
And they come again to Jerusalem: and as he was walking in the temple, the chief priests, and the scribes, and the elders, come to him, and say to him, By what authority doest thou these things? and who gave thee this authority, that thou shouldest do these things? Then Jesus answering said unto them, I also will ask you one question; and answer me; and I will tell you by what authority I do these things. read more.
The baptism of John, was it of heaven, or of men? answer me. And they reasoned among themselves, saying, If we reply, From heaven; he will say, Why then did ye not believe him? but if we say of men??hey feared the people: for all men held John to be in truth a prophet. And they answering said to Jesus, We do not know. And Jesus in reply said to them, Neither do I tell you by what authority I do these things.

And Jesus addressing them said, as he taught in the temple, How say the scribes that the Messiah is the Son of David? for David himself saith by the Spirit, The Lord said to my Lord, Sit thou at my right hand, until I make thy enemies the foot-stool for thy feet. David himself therefore calleth him Lord; and whence then is he his son? And a vast multitude heard him with delight. read more.
And he spake to them in the course of his teaching, Beware of the scribes, who love to go about in trailing robes, and like salutations in the places of concourse, and the principal seats in the synagogues, and the first couch at suppers: who devour widows' houses, and in pretence make long prayers: such shall receive greater damnation. And as Jesus was sitting opposite the treasury, he saw a multitude casting money into the treasury: and many who were rich cast in many [pieces]. And one poor widow coming, cast in two mites, which is a farthing. And having called his disciples, he said unto them, I tell you truly, that this poor widow hath cast in more than all who have cast into the treasury: for all they have cast in of their superfluities; but she from her indigence hath cast in all that she had, even her whole substance.

Daily was I with you in the temple teaching, and ye laid no hold upon me: but [this is done] that the scriptures might be fulfilled.
After these things Jesus findeth him in the temple, and said unto him, Take care; thou art made whole: sin no more, lest something worse befall thee. The man went, and informed the Jews, that it was Jesus who had made him whole. And therefore did the Jews persecute Jesus, and sought to kill him, because he had done these things on the sabbath-day. read more.

But now at the middle of the feast Jesus went up into the temple, and taught. And the Jews marvelled, saying, How knoweth this man the scriptures, not being a scholar? Jesus answered them and said, My doctrine is not mine, but his that sent me. read more.
If any man will do his will, he shall know respecting the doctrine, whether it is of God, or whether I speak from myself. He that speaketh from himself, seeks his own individual honour: but he that seeketh the glory of him that sent him, he is true, and iniquity in him there is none. Hath not Moses given you the law, yet none of you practises the law? Why do ye seek to kill me? The multitude answered and said, Thou hast a devil: who is seeking to kill thee? Jesus answered and said unto them, I have performed one work, and ye all marvel. Because Moses ordered you circumcision; (not that it comes from Moses, but from our ancestors;) so ye circumcise a man on the sabbath-day. If a man receive circumcision on the sabbath-day, that the law of Moses should not be violated; are ye incensed against me, because I have made a man whole on the sabbath-day? Judge not by appearance, but judge righteous judgment. Then said some of the people of Jerusalem, is not this the man whom they are seeking to kill? And, lo! he speaketh openly, and they say not a word to him. Do the rulers certainly know that this man is really the Messiah? But we know this man whence he is: but when the Messiah cometh, no man knoweth whence he is. Then spake Jesus aloud as he was teaching in the temple, and said, Ye both know me, and ye know from whence I am: and I came not of myself, but he that sent me is true, whom ye know not.

Witness » God the father giving witness to jesus Christ
For we have not followed artfully devised fables, when we made known to you the power and advent of our Lord Jesus Christ, but were eye-witnesses of his majesty. For he received from God the Father honour and glory, when such a voice was sent forth to him from the transcendently magnificent glory, This is my beloved son, in whom I am well pleased. And this voice we heard coming out of heaven, when we were with him on the holy mountain.
Then Peter addressing him, said to Jesus, Lord, It is well that we are here; if it please thee, we will make here three tents; one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias. And while he was yet speaking, behold, a luminous cloud overshadowed them; and lo! a voice out of the cloud, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom is my delight; hear him!
Then Peter addressing him, said unto him, Master, it is desirable for us to be here: and let us erect three tents, one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias. For he knew not what he should say: for they were very much affrighted. And there came a cloud overshadowing them: and there came a voice out of the cloud, saying, This is my beloved Son: hear him.
And it came to pass, as they were departing from him, Peter said unto Jesus, it is well that we are here, and we will make three tents, one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias; not knowing what he said. And as he was thus speaking, a cloud came and overshadowed them: and they were afraid as they were entering into the cloud. And a voice came out of the cloud, saying, This is my beloved Son; hear him.
Men of Israel, hear these words; Jesus the Nazarean, a man from God, pointed out to you by miracles and wonders and signs, which God did by him in the midst of you, as yourselves also know:
in order that all may honour the Son, just as they honour the Father. He that honoureth not the Son, doth not honour the Father who sent him. Verily, verily, I say unto you, That he that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into judgment; but is passed from death into life. Verily, verily, I say unto you, The hour is coming, yea, it is now, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God: and they that hear shall live. read more.
For as the Father hath life in himself; so hath he given to the Son also to have life in himself; and hath given him authority also to execute judgment, because he is the Son of man. Marvel not at this: for the hour is coming, in which all who are in the graves shall hear his voice, and they shall come forth; they who have done good actions to the resurrection of life; and they who have been guilty of foul practices, to the resurrection of damnation. I am not able to perform any thing by myself: as I hear, I judge: and my judgment is just; for I seek not my own will, but the will of my Father who sent me. If I bear witness of myself, my witness is not true. There is another who beareth witness of me, and I know that his witness is true which he witnesseth concerning me. Ye sent to John, and he bore testimony to the truth. But I receive not testimony from man: but I speak these things, that ye may believe. He was a lamp glowing and luminous: and ye were pleased for a time to exult in his light. But I have a testimony greater than that of John: for the works which the Father hath given me that I should fulfil them, these very works which I am doing, they bear witness of me, that the Father hath sent me. And the Father who sent me, himself hath borne witness concerning me. Ye have neither at any time heard his voice, nor seen his form. And ye have not his word abiding in you: for whom he hath sent, him ye believe not.
For as the Father hath life in himself; so hath he given to the Son also to have life in himself; and hath given him authority also to execute judgment, because he is the Son of man.

The Pharisees said to him, Thou bearest witness of thyself; thy witness is not true. Jesus answered and said to them, Though I do bear witness of myself, my witness is true: for I know whence I came, and whither I am going; but ye know not whence I come, nor whither I am going. Ye judge after the flesh; I judge no man. read more.
But though I should judge, my judgment is true: for I am not alone, but I and the Father who sent me. Now even in your law it is written, that the testimony of two men is true. I am a witness for myself, and the Father who sent me beareth witness of me.

Then Jesus answered them, saying, The hour is come, that the Son of man should be glorified. Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except a grain of wheat falling on the earth undergo a deathlike change, it abideth single: but if it [thus] die, it beareth abundant produce. He that loveth his life shall lose it; and he that hateth his life in this world, shall preserve it to life eternal. read more.
If a man will be my servant, let him follow me; and where I am, there also shall my servant be: and if any man serve me, him will my Father honour. Now is my soul troubled; and what shall I say? Father, save me from this hour: but for this cause came I unto this hour. Father, glorify thy name! Then came a voice from heaven, I have both glorified it, and will glorify it again. The multitude that stood by, and heard it, said that it was thunder: others said, An angel hath spoken to him. Jesus answered and said, This voice came not for my sake, but for your's.

Who is he that overcometh the world, except he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God? This is he who came by water and blood, Jesus the Messiah; not by the water only, but by the water and the blood: and the Spirit is the witnessing person, because the Spirit is the truth. For they are three who bear witness in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Spirit, and these, even the three, are one. read more.
And there are three which bear witness upon earth, the spirit, and the water, and the blood, and the three are for the same one object. If we receive the testimony of man, the testimony of God is stronger: for this is the testimony of God which he testified concerning his Son.
