Christ » Defamed » Accused of being possessed with devils
And many of them said, He is a demoniac, and is mad; why do ye hear Him?
The people answered and said, Thou art possessed by a demon: who seeketh to kill thee?
Demons » Jesus falsely accused of being possessed of
And many of them said, He is a demoniac, and is mad; why do ye hear Him?
The people answered and said, Thou art possessed by a demon: who seeketh to kill thee?
And the scribes that came down from Jerusalem said, He is in league with Beelzebub, and casts out demons by the help of the prince of demons. So He called them to Him, and said unto them in parables, How can Satan cast out Satan? If a kingdom be divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand: read more.
and if a family be divided against itself, that family cannot stand: and if Satan oppose himself and be divided, he cannot stand, but his kingdom is at an end. No one can enter into the house of a strong man, and plunder his goods; unless he first bind the strong man, and then he may pillage his house. Verily I tell you, that all sins shall be forgiven to the sons of men, and blasphemies wherewith they may blaspheme: but whosoever blasphemeth against the holy Ghost never hath forgiveness, but is liable to eternal damnation: for they said, He hath an impure spirit.

The Jews therefore answered and said unto Him. Do we not rightly say, that thou art a Samaritan, and art possessed by a demon?
Jesus Christ » History of » Teaches in jerusalem at the feast of tabernacles
But when it was now about the middle of the feast, Jesus went up into the temple and taught. And the Jews marvelled, saying, How knoweth this man letters, who never learnt? Jesus answered them and said, The doctrine that I teach is not mine, but his that sent me. read more.
If any man desire to do his will, he shall know concerning the doctrine, whether it be of God, or whether I speak of myself. He, that speaketh from himself, seeketh his own glory: but he that seeketh the glory of Him that sent him is true, and there is no imposture in him. Did not Moses give you the law, and yet none of you observeth the law? wherefore else do ye seek to kill me? The people answered and said, Thou art possessed by a demon: who seeketh to kill thee? Jesus answered and said unto them, I performed one miracle on the sabbath, and ye are all amazed at it. Now Moses gave you the law of circumcision, (not that it is originally from Moses, but from the patriarchs,) and ye circumcise even on the sabbath: if then a man receive circumcision on the sabbath-day, that the law of Moses may not be broken; are ye angry with me, because I made a man perfectly well on the sabbath-day? Judge not according to appearance, but judge righteous judgement. Therefore some of those of Jerusalem said, Is not this He whom they seek to put to death? and here He talketh openly, and they say nothing to Him: Do the rulers indeed know, that this is in truth the Messiah? But we know whence this man is; whereas when Christ cometh, no one knoweth whence He is. Jesus therefore cried out in the temple, teaching and saying, Ye both know me, ye say, and ye know whence I am: now I am not come of myself, but He that sent me is true, whom ye know not. But I know Him, for I am from Him, and He hath sent me. They sought therefore to seize Him, but no one laid hand on Him, because his hour was not yet come. And many of the people believed on Him, and said, When the Messiah cometh, will He do more miracles than this man hath done? Now the pharisees heard the people murmuring these things concerning Him: and they, with the chief priests, sent officers to seize Him. Therefore Jesus said unto them, Yet a little while I am to be among you, and then I shall go to Him that sent me. Ye shall seek me, and shall not find me: and where I am to be, ye cannot come. Then said the Jews among themselves, Whither will He go, that we shall not find Him? will He go to them that are dispersed among the Gentiles, and teach the Gentiles? What is the meaning of this speech, that He said, "Ye shall seek me, and shall not find me: and where I am to be, ye cannot come?" And on the last day, the great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried out, saying, If any one thirst, let him come unto me and drink. He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, rivers of living water shall flow from within him. (This He spake of the Spirit, which they that believe on Him should receive; for the holy Spirit was not yet given, because Jesus was not yet glorified.) Many of the people therefore, when they heard this discourse, said, This is in truth a prophet. Others said, This is the Messiah. But some said, Shall the Messiah come out of Galilee? Hath not the Scripture said, that Christ cometh of the seed of David, and from Bethlehem, the town whence David was. So there was a division among the people about Him. And some among them would have seized Him: but no one laid hands on Him. Then came the officers to the chief priests and pharisees, and they said, Why have ye not brought Him? and the officers answered, Never man spake like this man. The pharisees therefore answered them, Are ye also deceived? have any of the rulers believed on Him, or of the pharisees? but these people, who know not the law, are cursed. Upon this Nicodemus, (who came to Him by night) being one of them, saith to them, Doth our law judge any man, before it hear him, and know what he hath done? They replied, Art thou also of Galilee? Search and see: for out of Galilee ariseth no prophet. And every man went to his own house.

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 are continually resorting: and in secret have said nothing. Why dost thou ask me?
And they come again to Jerusalem, and as He was walking in the temple, the chief priests, and scribes, and elders come to Him, and ask Him, By what authority dost thou these things, and who gave thee this authority, to do thus? But Jesus said to them, I also will ask you one question; answer me, and I will tell you by what authority I do these things. read more.
The baptism of John, was it from heaven, or from men? answer me. And they reasoned among themselves, saying, If we say, from heaven; He will say, why then did ye not believe him? but if we should say, from men --- they feared the people: (for they they all thought that John was a prophet indeed:) and they answered and said unto Jesus, We cannot tell. And Jesus replied and said unto them, Neither do I tell you by what authority I do these things.

And Jesus spake and said, as He was teaching in the temple, How do the scribes say, that the Christ is the son of David? for David himself said by the holy Spirit, The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou at my right hand till I make thine enemies thy footstool. So that David himself calleth Him Lord: how then is He his son? And many of the people heard Him with pleasure. read more.
And He said unto them as He was teaching them, Beware of the scribes, who love to walk in long robes, and salutations in public-places, and the chief seats in the synagogues, and uppermost places at feasts; who devour widows houses, and for a shew of religion make long prayers: these shall receive the heavier judgement. And as Jesus was sitting over against the treasury, He saw how the people threw money into the treasury, and many of the rich put in much; and there came a poor widow and put in two mites, that is, a farthing. And He called his disciples to Him, and saith unto them, Verily I tell you, that this poor widow has given more than all those who have cast into the treasury. For they all have contributed out of their abundance: but she out of her penury hath given all that she had, even her whole living.

I was daily with you in the temple teaching, and ye did not seize me: but this is done that the scriptures may be fulfilled.
Afterwards Jesus findeth him in the temple, and said to him, Behold, thou art healed; sin no more, least something worse befal thee. And the man went away, and told the Jews, that it was Jesus who had healed him. And for this did the Jews persecute Jesus, and endeavoured to put Him to death; because He had done these things on the sabbath-day. read more.

And Jesus was walking about the temple, in Solomon's portico. Then the Jews came round Him, and said unto Him, How long dost thou hold us in suspense? If thou be the Messiah, tell us plainly. Jesus answered them, I have told you, and ye do not believe me: though the works that I do in the name of my Father, testify of me. read more.
But ye believe not; because ye are not of my sheep: for as I said unto you, my sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me. And I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; nor shall any one force them out of my hand. My Father who gave them to me, is greater than all: and therefore none is able to force them out of my Father's hand. I and the Father are one. Then the Jews again took up stones to stone Him. But Jesus said unto them, Many good works have I shewn you from my Father; for which of those works do ye stone me? The Jews answered Him, saying, We do not go about to stone thee for a good work, but for blasphemy; and because thou being a man makest thyself God. Jesus replied, Is it not written in your law, "I have said, ye are gods?" And if it stiled them gods, to whom the word of God came, (and the scripture cannot be made void,) do ye say of Him, whom the Father hath sanctified, and sent into the world, thou blasphemest, because I said, I am the Son of God? If I do not the works of my Father, believe me not. But if I do, though ye believe not me, believe the works: that ye may know and believe, that the Father is in me, and I in Him.
