'Again' in the Bible

Again the next day John was standing with two of his disciples,

Jesus answered them, “Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.”

Jesus answered him, “I assure you and most solemnly say to you, unless a person is born again [reborn from above—spiritually transformed, renewed, sanctified], he cannot [ever] see and experience the kingdom of God.”

Nicodemus said to Him, “How can a man be born when he is old? He cannot enter his mother’s womb a second time and be born, can he?”

Jesus answered her, “Everyone who drinks this water will be thirsty again.

So Jesus came again to Cana of Galilee, where He had turned the water into wine. And there was a certain royal official whose son was sick in Capernaum.

Then Jesus, knowing that they were going to come and take Him by force to make Him king, withdrew again to the mountainside by Himself.

Then He said again to them, “I am going away, and you will look for Me, and you will die [unforgiven and condemned] in your sin. Where I am going, you cannot come.”

So the Pharisees asked him again how he received his sight. And he said to them, “He smeared mud on my eyes, and I washed, and now I see.”

Accordingly they said to the blind man again, “What do you say about Him, since He opened your eyes?” And he said, “[It must be that] He is a prophet!”

He answered, “I already told you and you did not listen. Why do you want to hear it again and again? Do you want to become His disciples, too?”

So Jesus said again, “I assure you and most solemnly say to you, I am the Door for the sheep [leading to life].

For this reason the Father loves Me, because I lay down My [own] life so that I may take it back.

No one takes it away from Me, but I lay it down voluntarily. I am authorized and have power to lay it down and to give it up, and I am authorized and have power to take it back. This command I have received from My Father.”

Again the Jews picked up stones to stone Him.

So they tried again to seize Him, but He eluded their grasp.

He went back again across the Jordan to the place where John was first baptizing, and He was staying there.

Then He said to His disciples, “Let us go back to Judea.”

The disciples said to Him, “Rabbi (Teacher), the Jews were only recently going to stone You, and You are [thinking of] going back there again?”

Jesus told her, “Your brother will rise [from the dead].”

Martha replied, “I know that he will rise [from the dead] in the resurrection on the last day.”

So Jesus, again deeply moved within [to the point of anger], approached the tomb. It was a cave, and a boulder was lying against it [to cover the entrance].

[Rather, I will say,] ‘Father, glorify (honor, extol) Your name!’” Then a voice came from heaven saying, “I have both glorified it, and will glorify it again.”

So when He had washed their feet and put on His [outer] robe and reclined at the table again, He said to them, “Do you understand what I have done for you?

And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back again and I will take you to Myself, so that where I am you may be also.

“A little while, and you will no longer see Me; and again a little while, and you will see Me.”

Some of His disciples said to one another, “What does He mean when He tells us, ‘A little while, and you will not see Me; and again a little while, and you will see Me’; and, ‘because I am going to My Father’?”

Jesus knew that they wanted to ask Him, so He said to them, “Are you wondering among yourselves about what I meant when I said, ‘A little while, and you will not see Me, and again a little while, and you will see Me’?

So for now you are in grief; but I will see you again, and [then] your hearts will rejoice, and no one will take away from you your [great] joy.

I came from the Father and have come into the world; again, I am leaving the world and going to the Father.”

Again He asked them, “Whom do you want?” And they said, “Jesus the Nazarene.”

So Peter denied it again, and immediately a rooster crowed.

So Pilate went into the Praetorium again, and called Jesus and asked Him, “Are You the King of the Jews?”

Pilate said to Him [scornfully], “What is truth?”And when he had said this, he went out to the Jews again and told them, “I find no guilt in Him [no crime, no cause for an accusation].

Then they all shouted back again, “Not this Man, but Barabbas!” Now Barabbas was a robber.

Then Pilate came out again and said to them, “Look, I am bringing Him out to you so that you may know that I find no guilt in Him [no crime, no cause for an accusation].”

He went into the Praetorium again and said to Jesus, “Where are You from?” But Jesus did not answer him.

And again another Scripture says, “They shall look at Him whom they have pierced.”

For as yet they did not understand the Scripture, that He must rise from the dead.

Then the disciples went back again to their own homes.

Then Jesus said to them again, “Peace to you; as the Father has sent Me, I also send you [as My representatives].”

Eight days later His disciples were again inside the house, and Thomas was with them. Jesus came, though the doors had been barred, and stood among them and said, “Peace to you.”

After this Jesus revealed Himself again to the disciples at the Sea of Tiberias (Galilee). And He did it in this way:

Again He said to him a second time, “Simon, son of John, do you love Me [with total commitment and devotion]?” He said to Him, “Yes, Lord; You know that I love You [with a deep, personal affection, as for a close friend].” Jesus said to him, “Shepherd My sheep.”
