Jesus Christ » History of » Teaches in jerusalem at the feast of tabernacles
And when it was now in the middle of the feast, Jesus went up into the temple and taught. The Jews therefore marveled, saying, How does this man know scholarly material, not having learned? Jesus therefore answered them and said, My doctrine is not mine, but his who sent me. read more.
If any man wants to do his will, he will know about the doctrine, whether it is from God, or I speak from myself. He who speaks from himself seeks his own glory, but he who seeks the glory of him who sent him, this man is true, and unrighteousness is not in him. Did not Moses give you the law, and none of you does the law? Why do ye seek to kill me? The multitude answered and said, Thou have a demon. Who seeks to kill thee? Jesus answered and said to them, I did one work, and ye all marvel because of this. Moses has given you circumcision (not that it is from Moses, but from the fathers), and ye circumcise a man on a Sabbath. If a man receives circumcision on a Sabbath, so that the law of Moses may not be loosed, are ye angry with me because I made a man entirely well on a Sabbath? Judge not according to appearance, but judge righteous judgment. Therefore some of the Jerusalemites said, Is not this he whom they seek to kill? And lo, he speaks in public, and they say nothing to him. Perhaps the rulers really know that this really is the Christ? However we know this man, where he is from, but when the Christ comes, no man knows where he is from. Jesus therefore cried out in the temple, teaching and saying, Ye both know me, and know where I am from? And I have not come of myself, but he who sent me is true, whom ye know not. I know him, because I am from him, and he sent me. They sought therefore to seize him, and yet no man laid a hand on him because his hour had not yet come. But many from the crowd believed in him, and they said, When the Christ comes, will he do more signs than these that this man did? The Pharisees heard the crowd murmuring these things about him, and the Pharisees and the chief priests sent subordinates so that they might take him. Jesus therefore said, Yet a little time I am with you, and then I go to him who sent me. Ye will seek me, and will not find me, and where I am, ye cannot come. The Jews therefore said among themselves, Where is this man going to go that we will not find him? Is he going to go to the Dispersion among the Greeks, and teach the Greeks? What is this word that he said, Ye will seek me, and will not find me, and, Where I am, ye cannot come? Now on the last day, the great day of the feast, Jesus had stood and cried out, saying, If any man thirsts, let him come to me and drink. He who believes in me, as the scripture has said, out of his belly will flow rivers of living water. But he spoke this about the Spirit that those who believe in him were going to receive, for Holy Spirit was not yet, because Jesus was not yet glorified. Many from the multitude therefore, when they heard the saying, said, This is truly the prophet. Others said, This is the Christ. Others said, For does the Christ come out of Galilee? Has not the scripture said that the Christ comes of the seed of David, and from Bethlehem, the village where David was? So there became a division among the multitude because of him. And some of them wanted to taken him, but no man laid hands on him. The subordinates therefore came to the chief priests and Pharisees. And those men said to them, Why did ye not bring him? The subordinates answered, A man never so spoke like this man. The Pharisees therefore answered them, Have ye not also been led astray? Have any of the rulers believed in him, or of the Pharisees? But this multitude that does not know the law are accursed. Nicodemus says to them (he who came to him by night, being one of them), Does our law judge a man, unless it first may hear from himself and know what he does? They answered and said to him, Are thou also from Galilee? Search and see, that out of Galilee arises no prophet. And each man went to his house.

And ought not this woman, being a daughter of Abraham whom Satan has bound, lo, eighteen years, be loosed from this bond on the day of the Sabbath? And as he said these things all those opposing him were shamed, and all the multitude rejoiced for all the glorious things that were done by him.

Temple » Herod the great's temple » Jesus teaches in
Jesus answered him, I spoke in public to the world. I always taught in a synagogue, and in the temple where the Jews always gather together, and I spoke nothing in secret.
And they come again to Jerusalem. And as he was walking in the temple, the chief priests, and the scholars, and the elders come to him. And they say to him, By what authority are thou doing these things? Or who gave thee this authority so that thou may do these things?

And having responded as he taught in the temple, Jesus said, How do the scholars say that the Christ is the son of David?

David himself therefore calls him Lord, and in what way is he his son? And the great multitude heard him gladly. read more.
And in his teaching he said to them, Look away from the scholars, those who desire to go about in long robes, and salutations in the marketplaces, and chief seats in the synagogues, and places of honor at the feasts, those who devour widows' houses, and praying long in pretence. These will receive greater condemnation. And having sat down opposite the treasury, Jesus watched how the multitude cast money into the treasury, and many rich men cast in much. And one poor widow having come, she cast in two mites, which are a quadrans. And having summoned his disciples, he says to them, Truly I say to you, that this poor widow cast in more than all those who are casting into the treasury. For they all cast in from that which is abundant to them, but she from her need cast in all, as many things she had, her whole living.
