D. After the Feast of Tabernacles . . . 8:1-10:21
Joh 8:1
Jesus went unto the mount of Olives.Joh 8:2
And early in the morning he came again into the temple, and all the people came unto him; and he sat down, and taught them.Joh 8:3
And the scribes and Pharisees brought unto him a woman taken in adultery; and when they had set her in the midst,Joh 8:4
They say unto him, Master, this woman was taken in adultery, in the very act.Joh 8:5
Now Moses in the law commanded us, that such should be stoned: but what sayest thou?Joh 8:6
This they said, tempting him, that they might have to accuse him. But Jesus stooped down, and with his finger wrote on the ground, as though he heard them not.Joh 8:7
So when they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and said unto them, He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a stone at her.Joh 8:8
And again he stooped down, and wrote on the ground.Joh 8:9
And they which heard it, being convicted by their own conscience, went out one by one, beginning at the eldest, even unto the last: and Jesus was left alone, and the woman standing in the midst.Joh 8:10
When Jesus had lifted up himself, and saw none but the woman, he said unto her, Woman, where are those thine accusers? hath no man condemned thee?Joh 8:11
She said, No man, Lord. And Jesus said unto her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more.Joh 8:12
Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.Joh 8:13
The Pharisees therefore said unto him, Thou bearest record of thyself; thy record is not true.Joh 8:14
Jesus answered and said unto them, Though I bear record of myself, yet my record is true: for I know whence I came, and whither I go; but ye cannot tell whence I come, and whither I go.Joh 8:15
Ye judge after the flesh; I judge no man.Joh 8:16
And yet if I judge, my judgment is true: for I am not alone, but I and the Father that sent me.Joh 8:17
It is also written in your law, that the testimony of two men is true.Joh 8:18
I am one that bear witness of myself, and the Father that sent me beareth witness of me.Joh 8:19
Then said they unto him, Where is thy Father? Jesus answered, Ye neither know me, nor my Father: if ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also.Joh 8:20
These words spake Jesus in the treasury, as he taught in the temple: and no man laid hands on him; for his hour was not yet come.Joh 8:21
Then said Jesus again unto them, I go my way, and ye shall seek me, and shall die in your sins: whither I go, ye cannot come.Joh 8:22
Then said the Jews, Will he kill himself? because he saith, Whither I go, ye cannot come.Joh 8:23
And he said unto them, Ye are from beneath; I am from above: ye are of this world; I am not of this world.Joh 8:24
I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I am he, ye shall die in your sins.Joh 8:25
Then said they unto him, Who art thou? And Jesus saith unto them, Even the same that I said unto you from the beginning.Joh 8:26
I have many things to say and to judge of you: but he that sent me is true; and I speak to the world those things which I have heard of him.Joh 8:27
They understood not that he spake to them of the Father.Joh 8:28
Then said Jesus unto them, When ye have lifted up the Son of man, then shall ye know that I am he, and that I do nothing of myself; but as my Father hath taught me, I speak these things.Joh 8:29
And he that sent me is with me: the Father hath not left me alone; for I do always those things that please him.Joh 8:30
As he spake these words, many believed on him.Joh 8:31
Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed;Joh 8:32
And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.Joh 8:33
They answered him, We be Abraham's seed, and were never in bondage to any man: how sayest thou, Ye shall be made free?Joh 8:34
Jesus answered them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Whosoever committeth sin is the servant of sin.Joh 8:35
And the servant abideth not in the house for ever: but the Son abideth ever.Joh 8:36
If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.Joh 8:37
I know that ye are Abraham's seed; but ye seek to kill me, because my word hath no place in you.Joh 8:38
I speak that which I have seen with my Father: and ye do that which ye have seen with your father.Joh 8:39
They answered and said unto him, Abraham is our father. Jesus saith unto them, If ye were Abraham's children, ye would do the works of Abraham.Joh 8:40
But now ye seek to kill me, a man that hath told you the truth, which I have heard of God: this did not Abraham.Joh 8:41
Ye do the deeds of your father. Then said they to him, We be not born of fornication; we have one Father, even God.Joh 8:42
Jesus said unto them, If God were your Father, ye would love me: for I proceeded forth and came from God; neither came I of myself, but he sent me.Joh 8:43
Why do ye not understand my speech? even because ye cannot hear my word.Joh 8:44
Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.Joh 8:45
And because I tell you the truth, ye believe me not.Joh 8:46
Which of you convinceth me of sin? And if I say the truth, why do ye not believe me?Joh 8:47
He that is of God heareth God's words: ye therefore hear them not, because ye are not of God.Joh 8:48
Then answered the Jews, and said unto him, Say we not well that thou art a Samaritan, and hast a devil?Joh 8:49
Jesus answered, I have not a devil; but I honour my Father, and ye do dishonour me.Joh 8:50
And I seek not mine own glory: there is one that seeketh and judgeth.Joh 8:51
Verily, verily, I say unto you, If a man keep my saying, he shall never see death.Joh 8:52
Then said the Jews unto him, Now we know that thou hast a devil. Abraham is dead, and the prophets; and thou sayest, If a man keep my saying, he shall never taste of death.Joh 8:53
Art thou greater than our father Abraham, which is dead? and the prophets are dead: whom makest thou thyself?Joh 8:54
Jesus answered, If I honour myself, my honour is nothing: it is my Father that honoureth me; of whom ye say, that he is your God:Joh 8:55
Yet ye have not known him; but I know him: and if I should say, I know him not, I shall be a liar like unto you: but I know him, and keep his saying.Joh 8:56
Your father Abraham rejoiced to see my day: and he saw it, and was glad.Joh 8:57
Then said the Jews unto him, Thou art not yet fifty years old, and hast thou seen Abraham?Joh 8:58
Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am.Joh 8:59
Then took they up stones to cast at him: but Jesus hid himself, and went out of the temple, going through the midst of them, and so passed by.Joh 9:1
And as Jesus passed by, he saw a man which was blind from his birth.Joh 9:2
And his disciples asked him, saying, Master, who did sin, this man, or his parents, that he was born blind?Joh 9:3
Jesus answered, Neither hath this man sinned, nor his parents: but that the works of God should be made manifest in him.Joh 9:4
I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work.Joh 9:5
As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world.Joh 9:6
When he had thus spoken, he spat on the ground, and made clay of the spittle, and he anointed the eyes of the blind man with the clay,Joh 9:7
And said unto him, Go, wash in the pool of Siloam, (which is by interpretation, Sent.) He went his way therefore, and washed, and came seeing.Joh 9:8
The neighbours therefore, and they which before had seen him that he was blind, said, Is not this he that sat and begged?Joh 9:9
Some said, This is he: others said, He is like him: but he said, I am he.Joh 9:10
Therefore said they unto him, How were thine eyes opened?Joh 9:11
He answered and said, A man that is called Jesus made clay, and anointed mine eyes, and said unto me, Go to the pool of Siloam, and wash: and I went and washed, and I received sight.Joh 9:12
Then said they unto him, Where is he? He said, I know not.Joh 9:13
They brought to the Pharisees him that aforetime was blind.Joh 9:14
And it was the sabbath day when Jesus made the clay, and opened his eyes.Joh 9:15
Then again the Pharisees also asked him how he had received his sight. He said unto them, He put clay upon mine eyes, and I washed, and do see.Joh 9:16
Therefore said some of the Pharisees, This man is not of God, because he keepeth not the sabbath day. Others said, How can a man that is a sinner do such miracles? And there was a division among them.Joh 9:17
They say unto the blind man again, What sayest thou of him, that he hath opened thine eyes? He said, He is a prophet.Joh 9:18
But the Jews did not believe concerning him, that he had been blind, and received his sight, until they called the parents of him that had received his sight.Joh 9:19
And they asked them, saying, Is this your son, who ye say was born blind? how then doth he now see?Joh 9:20
His parents answered them and said, We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind:Joh 9:21
But by what means he now seeth, we know not; or who hath opened his eyes, we know not: he is of age; ask him: he shall speak for himself.Joh 9:22
These words spake his parents, because they feared the Jews: for the Jews had agreed already, that if any man did confess that he was Christ, he should be put out of the synagogue.Joh 9:23
Therefore said his parents, He is of age; ask him.Joh 9:24
Then again called they the man that was blind, and said unto him, Give God the praise: we know that this man is a sinner.Joh 9:25
He answered and said, Whether he be a sinner or no, I know not: one thing I know, that, whereas I was blind, now I see.Joh 9:26
Then said they to him again, What did he to thee? how opened he thine eyes?Joh 9:27
He answered them, I have told you already, and ye did not hear: wherefore would ye hear it again? will ye also be his disciples?Joh 9:28
Then they reviled him, and said, Thou art his disciple; but we are Moses' disciples.Joh 9:29
We know that God spake unto Moses: as for this fellow, we know not from whence he is.Joh 9:30
The man answered and said unto them, Why herein is a marvellous thing, that ye know not from whence he is, and yet he hath opened mine eyes.Joh 9:31
Now we know that God heareth not sinners: but if any man be a worshipper of God, and doeth his will, him he heareth.Joh 9:32
Since the world began was it not heard that any man opened the eyes of one that was born blind.Joh 9:33
If this man were not of God, he could do nothing.Joh 9:34
They answered and said unto him, Thou wast altogether born in sins, and dost thou teach us? And they cast him out.Joh 9:35
Jesus heard that they had cast him out; and when he had found him, he said unto him, Dost thou believe on the Son of God?Joh 9:36
He answered and said, Who is he, Lord, that I might believe on him?Joh 9:37
And Jesus said unto him, Thou hast both seen him, and it is he that talketh with thee.Joh 9:38
And he said, Lord, I believe. And he worshipped him.Joh 9:39
And Jesus said, For judgment I am come into this world, that they which see not might see; and that they which see might be made blind.Joh 9:40
And some of the Pharisees which were with him heard these words, and said unto him, Are we blind also?Joh 9:41
Jesus said unto them, If ye were blind, ye should have no sin: but now ye say, We see; therefore your sin remaineth.Joh 10:1
Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that entereth not by the door into the sheepfold, but climbeth up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber.Joh 10:2
But he that entereth in by the door is the shepherd of the sheep.Joh 10:3
To him the porter openeth; and the sheep hear his voice: and he calleth his own sheep by name, and leadeth them out.Joh 10:4
And when he putteth forth his own sheep, he goeth before them, and the sheep follow him: for they know his voice.Joh 10:5
And a stranger will they not follow, but will flee from him: for they know not the voice of strangers.Joh 10:6
This parable spake Jesus unto them: but they understood not what things they were which he spake unto them.Joh 10:7
Then said Jesus unto them again, Verily, verily, I say unto you, I am the door of the sheep.Joh 10:8
All that ever came before me are thieves and robbers: but the sheep did not hear them.Joh 10:9
I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture.Joh 10:10
The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.Joh 10:11
I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep.Joh 10:12
But he that is an hireling, and not the shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, seeth the wolf coming, and leaveth the sheep, and fleeth: and the wolf catcheth them, and scattereth the sheep.Joh 10:13
The hireling fleeth, because he is an hireling, and careth not for the sheep.Joh 10:14
I am the good shepherd, and know my sheep, and am known of mine.Joh 10:15
As the Father knoweth me, even so know I the Father: and I lay down my life for the sheep.Joh 10:16
And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold: them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one fold, and one shepherd.Joh 10:17
Therefore doth my Father love me, because I lay down my life, that I might take it again.Joh 10:18
No man taketh it from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This commandment have I received of my Father.Joh 10:19
There was a division therefore again among the Jews for these sayings.Joh 10:20
And many of them said, He hath a devil, and is mad; why hear ye him?Joh 10:21
Others said, These are not the words of him that hath a devil. Can a devil open the eyes of the blind?
