Jesus Christ » History of » Teaches in jerusalem at the feast of tabernacles
Midway through the feast Jesus went to the temple and taught. The Jews wondered saying: How does this man know letters? He has had no formal education. Jesus replied: My teaching is not my own. It is his who sent me. read more.
If any man does his will he shall know the teachings. He will know if it is from God, or whether I speak from myself. He who speaks from his own authority seeks his own glory. He who seeks glory for the one who sent him is true. Unrighteousness is not found in him. Did Moses give you the law? Yet none of you obey the law! Why do you seek to kill me? The crowd answered: You have a demon! Who seeks to kill you? Jesus responded: I did one work and you all marveled because of it. Moses gave you circumcision. Not that it is of Moses, but of the fathers. And you circumcise a man on the Sabbath. A man receives circumcision on the Sabbath. That way the Law of Moses may not be broken. Are you angry with me, because I made an entire man whole on the Sabbath? Do not judge according to appearance! Judge a righteous judgment. Some in Jerusalem asked: Is this he whom they seek to kill? He spoke openly and they said nothing to him. Can it be that the rulers indeed know that this is the Christ? How is it we know where this man is from but when the Christ comes no one will know where he is from? Jesus shouted in the temple: You know me and from where I came. I did not come on my own. He who sent me is true and you do not know him. I know him because I am from him and he sent me. They looked for a way to capture him. But no man laid his hand on him. This is because his hour had not yet arrived. Many in the crowd believed in him. They asked: When the Christ comes will he do more signs than those this man has done? The Pharisees heard the crowd whispering these things concerning him. The chief priests and the Pharisees sent officers to capture him. Jesus therefore said: I am with you a little while. Then I go to him who sent me. You will seek me and will not find me. You cannot come where I am going. The Jews said among themselves: Where will this man go that we shall not find him? Will he go to the Dispersion among the Greeks, and teach the Greeks? What is this word that he said: 'You will seek me, and will not find me; and you cannot come where I am going?' On the last day, the great day of the feast, Jesus stood and shouted in a loud voice: If any man thirst let him come to me and drink. Rivers of living water will flow from the innermost being of the man who believes in me. This is according to the scriptures. He spoke this by the Spirit. Those who believed in him were to receive the Spirit. The Spirit was not yet given because Jesus was not yet glorified. When they heard these words some of the crowd proclaimed: This truly is the prophet! Others said: This is the Christ. But some asked: Does the Christ come out of Galilee? Do the Scriptures say that the Christ comes from the seed of David and from Bethlehem, the village where David was? So there arose a division in the crowd because of him. Some of them wanted to apprehend him. Yet no man laid hands on him. The chief priests and Pharisees asked the officers: Why did you not bring him? No man has ever spoken the way he speaks, they replied. The Pharisees therefore answered them: Are you also deceived? Have any of the rulers or the Pharisees believed in him? This crowd does not know the law. It is contemptible Nicodemus spoke to them. (He is the Pharisee who earlier went to Jesus.) Does our law convict a man without first hearing from him to find out what he has done? They replied: Are you also from Galilee? Search, and see that no prophet comes out of Galilee. [Then each man went to his own house.] (questionable text)

Knowledge » God the father and jesus Christ knowing each other
Then Jesus prayed: I thank you, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth. You have hidden these things from the wise and understanding, and have revealed them to children. (Acts 2:36) Yes, Father, for it was very pleasing in your sight. All things have been delivered to me from my Father. Only the Father knows the Son, and only the Son knows the Father. The Son tells others about the Father so that they can know him too.
All things have been delivered to me from my Father. No one knows who the Son is except the Father. And no one knows who the Father is except the Son and those to whom the Son is willing to reveal him.
Jesus shouted in the temple: You know me and from where I came. I did not come on my own. He who sent me is true and you do not know him. I know him because I am from him and he sent me.
Are you greater than our father Abraham? He died! The prophets also died. Who do you make yourself out to be? Jesus answered: If I glorify myself, my glory is nothing. My Father glorifies me. He is the one whom you say is your God. You do not know him. I know him. If I say I do not know him I would be like you, a liar! But I know him and obey his word. read more.
Your father Abraham rejoiced to see my day. He saw it and was glad. The Jews replied: You are not yet fifty years old. Have you seen Abraham? Jesus said: I tell you the truth, I existed before Abraham was born! (Ex 3:14, 15)
Your father Abraham rejoiced to see my day. He saw it and was glad. The Jews replied: You are not yet fifty years old. Have you seen Abraham? Jesus said: I tell you the truth, I existed before Abraham was born! (Ex 3:14, 15)
I am the good shepherd. I know my own, and my own know me. Just as the Father knows me I know the Father! I lay down my life for the sheep.
Jesus spoke these things and lifted up his eyes to heaven. He said: Father, the hour has come. Glorify your Son, that the son may glorify you. You have given him authority over all flesh that he may give everlasting life to the ones whom you have given him. This is everlasting life that they should have *deep, intimate knowledge of you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom you have commissioned. *(Greek: ginosko: know, perceive, be sure, understand) read more.
I glorified you on the earth. I accomplished the work you gave me to do. And now, Father, glorify me with you, the glory that I had with you before the world existed. I taught your name to the men whom you gave me out of the world. They were yours and you gave them to me. They have lived by your word. Now they know that all things you gave me are from you. I gave them the words that you gave me. They understood them and knew I came from you. They believed you sent me. I pray for them. I do not pray for the world. I pray only for those you gave me, for they are yours. All things that are mine are yours, and yours are mine and I am glorified in them. I am no more in the world but they are in the world. I come to you Holy Father. Keep them in your name, which you have given to me, that they may be one*, even as we are. *(Greek: heis; united in purpose and love) While I was with them I kept them in your name, which you have given to me. I guarded them, and not one of them perished, except the son of perdition; that the Scripture might be fulfilled. Now I come to you. I spoke these things in the world, that they may have my joy made full in themselves. I gave them your word. The world hated them because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world. I do not pray that you take them out of the world, but that you keep them from the evil one. They are not of the world even as I am not of the world. Sanctify them by your truth. Your word is truth. As you commissioned (sent) me into the world, I commissioned (sent) them into the world. I sanctify myself for them, that they may be sanctified by truth. I pray, not for these alone but for those who will believe in me through their word. May they all be united (in agreement) as one. Just as you, Father, are with me, and I am with you. Help them be united with us! That way the world may believe that you sent me. I have given them the glory that you gave me in order that they may be one even as we are one. I with them, and you with me, that they may accomplish complete unity. That way the world may know that you sent me and that you love them just as you love me. Father, I desire that these whom you gave me may be with me where I am. I want them to see the glory you have given me. For you loved me before the creation of the world. Righteous Father, the world has not known you. I know you and those you sent me know you.

Temple » Herod the great's temple » Jesus teaches in
Jesus answered him: I have spoken openly to the world. I always taught in synagogues, and in the temple where all the Jews gathered. I spoke nothing in secret.
Chief priests and scribes approached him at the Temple in Jerusalem. They said to him: By what authority do you do these things? Or who gave you authority to do these things? Jesus said: I will ask you one question. Give me an answer, and I will say by what authority I do these things. read more.
The baptism of John was it from heaven or from men? Give me an answer. They thought about it among themselves saying: If we say from heaven he will say why did you not have faith in him?

Jesus said to them: I should not say to you by what authority I do these things.

Still teaching in the temple Jesus said: Do the scribes say that the Christ is the son of David? Inspired by Holy Spirit David said: 'Jehovah said to my Lord sit at my right hand, until I make your enemies a footstool for your feet.' (Psalm 110:1) David called him Lord. How is it that he is his son? The people were pleased with what he said. read more.
He said: Beware of the scribes, who desire to walk in long robes, and to have greetings in the marketplaces. They demand the front seats in the synagogues and prominent places at feasts. They devour widows' houses and for pretence make long prayers. These shall receive greater condemnation. He sat down near the collection boxes and observed how the crowd dropped money into the boxes. Many that were rich dropped in much. A poor widow came along and dropped in two mites. He told his disciples: Truly I tell you this poor widow gave more then all the others who gave to the collection box. They all gave out of their surplus. She gave out of her poverty. She gave all that she owned, all her living.

It was wintertime. Jesus was walking in the temple on Solomon's porch (the Colonnade of Solomon). The Jews came to him and asked: How long will you keep us in suspense?

You do not believe because you are not my sheep! My sheep hear my voice. I know them and they follow me. I give them eternal life. They will never perish. No one will snatch them out of my hand.

The Jews picked up stones again to stone him. Jesus replied to them: I have shown you many good works from the Father. For which of those works do you stone me? The Jews answered him: We do not stone you for good work but for blasphemy. You are a man and you make yourself like God.

So if he called them 'god-like ones,' those to whom the word of God came, and the Scriptures may not be annulled, do you say to the one whom the Father sanctified and sent into the world, you blaspheme?
