John:7:14-24
Seeker Overlay ON
*
But when it was now the midst of the feast ,
Jesus went up into the temple and taught .
*
The Jews therefore marveled ,
saying , "
How does this man know letters ,
having never been educated ?"
*
Jesus therefore answered them , "
My teaching is not mine ,
but his who sent me .
*
If anyone desires to do his will ,
he will know about the teaching ,
whether it is from God ,
or if I am speaking from myself .
*
He who speaks from himself seeks his own glory ,
but he who seeks the glory of him who sent him is true ,
and no unrighteousness is in him .
*
Didn '
t Moses give you the law ,
and yet none of you keeps the law ?
Why do you seek to kill me ?"
*
The multitude answered , "
You have a demon !
Who seeks to kill you ?"
*
Jesus answered them , "
I did one work ,
and you all marvel because of it .
*
Moses has given you circumcision (
not that it is of Moses ,
but of the fathers ),
and on the Sabbath you circumcise a boy .
*
If a boy receives circumcision on the Sabbath ,
that the law of Moses may not be broken ,
are you angry with me ,
because I made a man completely healthy on the Sabbath ?
*
Don '
t judge according to appearance ,
but judge righteous judgment ."
