nsb - John:7:14-24

nsb@John:7:14 @ Midway through the feast Jesus went to the temple and taught.

nsb@John:7:15 @ The Jews wondered saying: »How does this man know letters? He has had no formal education.«

nsb@John:7:16 @ Jesus replied: »My teaching is not my own. It is his who sent me.

nsb@John:7:17 @ »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.

nsb@John:7:18 @ »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.

nsb@John:7:19 @ »Did Moses give you the law? / Yet none of you obey the law! Why do you seek to kill me?«

nsb@John:7:20 @ The crowd answered: »You have a demon! Who seeks to kill you?«

nsb@John:7:21 @ Jesus responded: »I did one work and you all marveled because of it.

nsb@John:7:22 @ »Moses gave you circumcision. Not that it is of Moses, but of the fathers. And you circumcise a man on the Sabbath.

nsb@John:7:23 @ »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?

nsb@John:7:24 @ »Do not judge according to appearance! Judge a righteous judgment.«
