Jesus Christ » History of » Teaches in jerusalem at the feast of tabernacles
In the midst of the feast, Jesus went up into the temple, and taught. And the Jews marveled, saying, "How knoweth he the scriptures, seeing that he never learned?" 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 of the doctrine, whether it be of God: or whether I speak of myself. He that speaketh of himself, seeketh his own praise. But he that seeketh his praise that sent him, the same is true, and no unrighteousness is in him. Did not Moses give you a law? And yet none of you keepeth the law? Why go ye about to kill me?" The people answered and said, "Thou hast the devil. Who goeth about to kill thee?" Jesus answered, and said unto them, "I have done one work, and ye all marvel. Moses therefore gave unto you circumcision: not because it is of Moses, but of the fathers. And yet ye on the Sabbath day circumcise a man. If a man on the Sabbath day receive circumcision without breaking of the law of Moses: Disdain ye at me, because I have made a man every whit whole on the Sabbath day? Judge not after the outer appearance: but judge righteous judgment." Then said some of them of Jerusalem, "Is not this he whom they go about to kill? Behold, he speaketh boldly, and they say nothing to him. Do the rulers know, indeed, that this is very Christ? Howbeit, we know this man whence he is, but when Christ cometh, no man shall know whence he is." Then cried Jesus in the temple, as he taught, saying, "And me ye know, and whence I am ye know: and yet I am not come of myself. But he that sent me is true, whom ye know not. I know him: For I am of him, and he hath sent me." Then sought they to take him: but no man laid hands on him, because his time was not yet come. Many of the people believed on him, and said, "When Christ cometh, will he do more miracles than this man hath done?" The Pharisees heard that the people murmured such things about him: Wherefore the Pharisees and high priests sent ministers forth to take him. Then said Jesus unto them, "Yet am I a little while with you, and then go I unto him that sent me. Ye shall seek me, and shall not find me: And where I am, thither can ye not come." Then said the Jews between themselves, "Whither will he go, that we shall not find him? Will he go among the gentiles, which are scattered all abroad, and teach the gentiles? What manner of saying is this that he said, 'Ye shall seek me, and shall not find me: And where I am, thither can ye not come?'" In the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried, saying, "If any man thirst, let him come unto me and drink. He that believeth on me, as sayeth the scripture, 'Out of his belly shall flow rivers of water of life.'" This spake he of the spirit, which they that believed on him should receive. For the holy ghost was not yet there, because that Jesus was not yet glorified. Many of the people, when they heard this saying said, "Of a truth, this is a Prophet." Others said, "This is Christ." Some said, "Shall Christ come out of Galilee? Saith not the scripture that Christ shall come of the seed of David: and out of the town of Bethlehem where David was?" So was there dissension among the people about him. And some of them would have taken him: but no man laid hands on him. Then came the ministers to the high priests and Pharisees. And they said unto them, "Why have ye not brought him?" The servants answered, "Never man spake as this man doeth." Then answered them the Pharisees, "Are ye also deceived? Doth any of the rulers, or of the Pharisees, believe on him? But the common people which know not the law are accursed." Nicodemus said unto them - He that came to Jesus by night and was one of them - "Doth our law judge any man, before it hear him and know what he hath done?" They answered, and said unto him, "Art thou also of Galilee? Search and look, for out of Galilee ariseth no prophet." And every man went unto his own house.

Nicodemus » Becomes a disciple of jesus
There was a man of the Pharisees named Nicodemus, a ruler among the Jews. The same came to Jesus by night, and said unto him, "Rabbi, we know that thou art a teacher which art come from God. For no man could do such miracles as thou doest, except God were with him." Jesus answered, and said unto him, "Verily, verily I say unto thee: except a man be born anew, he cannot see the kingdom of God." read more.
Nicodemus said unto him, "How can a man be born, when he is old? Can he enter into his mother's womb and be born again?" Jesus answered, "Verily, verily I say unto thee: Except that a man be born of water, and of the spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God. That which is born of the flesh, is flesh. And that which is born of the spirit, is spirit. Marvel not that I said to thee, ye must be born anew. The wind bloweth where he listeth, and thou hearest his sound: but canst not tell whence he cometh and whither he goeth. So is every man that is born of the spirit." And Nicodemus answered and said unto him, "How can these things be?" Jesus answered and said unto him, "Art thou a master in Israel, and knowest not these things?

Then Paul, after that the ruler himself had beckoned unto him that he should speak, answered, "I shall with a more quiet mind answer for myself, forasmuch as I understand that thou hast been of many years a judge unto this people, because that thou mayest know that there are yet but twelve days since I went up to Jerusalem for to pray. And that they neither found me in the temple disputing with any man, either raising up the people, neither in the synagogues nor in the city. read more.
Neither can they prove the things whereof they accuse me. But this I confess unto thee, that after that way, which they call heresy, so worship I the God of my fathers, believing all things which are written in the law and the prophets, and have hope towards God, that the same resurrection from death, which they themselves look for also, shall be both of just and unjust. And therefore study I to have a clear conscience toward God, and toward man also. "But after many years, I came and brought alms to my people and offerings, in the which they found me purified in the temple, neither with multitude, nor yet with unquietness. Howbeit, there were certain Jews out of Asia, which ought to be here present before thee, and accuse me, if they had ought against me: or else let these same here say, if they have found any evildoing in me, while I stand here in the council, except it be for this one voice, that I cried standing among them of the resurrection from death am I judged of you this day."

Then said Paul unto them, "They have beaten us, openly un-condemned, for all that we are Romans, and have cast us into prison: and now would they send us away privily? Nay not so, but let them come themselves and fetch us out." When the ministers told these words unto the officers, they feared when they heard that they were Romans; and came and besought them, and brought them out, and desired them to depart out of the city.
And as they bound him with thongs, Paul said unto the centurion that stood by, "Is it lawful for you to scourge a man that is a Roman and uncondemned?" When the centurion heard that, he went to the upper-captain, and told him saying, "What intendest thou to do? This man is a citizen of Rome." Then the upper-captain came to him, and said, "Tell me, art thou a Roman?" He said, "Yea." read more.
And the high captain answered, "With a great sum obtained I this freedom." And Paul said, "I was freeborn." Then straightway departed from him they which should have examined him.

On the morrow he loosed him from his bonds, desiring to know the certainty for what cause he was accused of the Jews, and commanded the high priests and all the council to come together, and brought Paul, and set him before them.
