Then He told them, “You are from below; I am from above. You are of this world; I am not of this world.

Then He told them, “You are from below; I am from above. You are of this world; I am not of this world.

At this, they picked up stones to throw at Him. But Jesus was hidden and went out of the temple area.

…and His disciples asked Him, “Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he was born blind?”

Jesus answered, “Neither this man nor his parents sinned, but this happened so that the works of God would be displayed in him.

Jesus answered, “Neither this man nor his parents sinned, but this happened so that the works of God would be displayed in him.

When Jesus had said this, He spit on the ground, made some mud, and applied it to the man’s eyes.

At this, his neighbors and those who had formerly seen him begging began to ask, “Isn’t this the man who used to sit and beg?”

At this, his neighbors and those who had formerly seen him begging began to ask, “Isn’t this the man who used to sit and beg?”

Because of this, some of the Pharisees said, “This man is not from God, for He does not keep the Sabbath.” But others said, “How can a sinful man perform such signs?” And there was division among them.

Because of this, some of the Pharisees said, “This man is not from God, for He does not keep the Sabbath.” But others said, “How can a sinful man perform such signs?” And there was division among them.

…and asked, “Is this your son, the one you say was born blind? So how is it that he can now see?”

His parents said this because they were afraid of the Jews. For the Jews had already determined that anyone who confessed Jesus as the Christ would be put out of the synagogue.

So a second time they called for the man who had been blind and said, “Give glory to God! We know that this man is a sinner.”

We know that God spoke to Moses, but we do not know where this man is from.”

If this man were not from God, He could do no such thing.”

Then Jesus declared, “For judgment I have come into this world, so that the blind may see and those who see may become blind.”

Some of the Pharisees who were with Him heard this, and they asked Him, “Are we blind too?”

Jesus spoke to them using this illustration, but they did not understand what He was telling them.

I have other sheep that are not of this fold. I must bring them in as well, and they will listen to My voice. Then there will be one flock and one shepherd.

No one takes it from Me, but I lay it down of My own accord. I have authority to lay it down and authority to take it up again. This charge I have received from My Father.”

At this, the Jews again picked up stones to stone Him.

At this, they tried again to seize Him, but He escaped their grasp.

Many came to Him and said, “Although John never performed a sign, everything he said about this man was true.”

At this time a man named Lazarus was sick. He lived in Bethany, the village of Mary and her sister Martha.

When Jesus heard this, He said, “This sickness will not end in death. No, it is for the glory of God, so that the Son of God may be glorified through it.”

When Jesus heard this, He said, “This sickness will not end in death. No, it is for the glory of God, so that the Son of God may be glorified through it.”

Jesus answered, “Are there not twelve hours of daylight? If anyone walks in the daytime, he will not stumble, because he sees by the light of this world.

After He had said this, He told them, “Our friend Lazarus has fallen asleep, but I am going there to wake him up.”

And everyone who lives and believes in Me will never die. Do you believe this?”

After Martha had said this, she went back and called her sister Mary aside to tell her, “The Teacher is here and is asking for you.”

And when Mary heard this, she got up quickly and went to Him.

But some of them asked, “Could not this man who opened the eyes of the blind also have kept Lazarus from dying?”

I knew that You always hear Me, but I say this for the benefit of the people standing here, so they may believe that You sent Me.”

After Jesus had said this, He called out in a loud voice, “Lazarus, come out!”

Then the chief priests and Pharisees convened the Sanhedrin and said, “What are we to do? This man is performing many signs.

If we let Him go on like this, everyone will believe in Him, and then the Romans will come and take away both our place and our nation.”

Caiaphas did not say this on his own. Instead, as high priest that year, he was prophesying that Jesus would die for the nation,

“Why wasn’t this perfume sold for three hundred denarii and the money given to the poor?”

Judas did not say this because he cared about the poor, but because he was a thief. As keeper of the money bag, he used to take from what was put into it.

“Leave her alone,” Jesus replied. “She has kept this perfume in preparation for the day of My burial.

That is also why the crowd went out to meet Him, because they heard that He had performed this sign.

Then the Pharisees said to one another, “You can see that this is doing you no good. Look how the whole world has gone after Him!”

Philip relayed this appeal to Andrew, and both of them went and told Jesus.

Whoever loves his life will lose it, but whoever hates his life in this world will keep it for eternal life.

Now My soul is troubled, and what shall I say? ‘Father, save Me from this hour’? No, it is for this purpose that I have come to this hour.

Now My soul is troubled, and what shall I say? ‘Father, save Me from this hour’? No, it is for this purpose that I have come to this hour.

Now My soul is troubled, and what shall I say? ‘Father, save Me from this hour’? No, it is for this purpose that I have come to this hour.

In response, Jesus said, “This voice was not for My benefit, but yours.

Now judgment is upon this world; now the prince of this world will be cast out.

Now judgment is upon this world; now the prince of this world will be cast out.

He said this to indicate the kind of death He was going to die.

The crowd replied, “We have heard from the Law that the Christ will remain forever. So how can You say that the Son of Man must be lifted up? Who is this Son of Man?”

This was to fulfill the word of Isaiah the prophet: “Lord, who has believed our message? And to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed?”

For this reason they were unable to believe. For again, Isaiah says:

It was now just before the Passover Feast, and Jesus knew that His hour had come to leave this world and return to the Father. Having loved His own who were in the world, He loved them to the very end.

I am not speaking about all of you; I know whom I have chosen. But this is to fulfill the Scripture: ‘The one who shares My bread has lifted up his heel against Me.’

After Jesus had said this, He became troubled in spirit and testified, “Truly, truly, I tell you, one of you will betray Me.”

Jesus answered, “It is the one to whom I give this morsel after I have dipped it.” Then He dipped the morsel and gave it to Judas son of Simon Iscariot.

But no one at the table knew why Jesus had said this to him.

By this everyone will know that you are My disciples, if you love one another.”

Jesus replied, “Philip, I have been with you all this time, and still you do not know Me? Anyone who has seen Me has seen the Father. How can you say, ‘Show us the Father’?

All this I have spoken to you while I am still with you.

I will not speak with you much longer, for the prince of this world is coming, and he has no claim on Me.

This is to My Father’s glory, that you bear much fruit, proving yourselves to be My disciples.

This is My commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you.

Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends.

This is My command to you: Love one another.

But they will treat you like this because of My name, since they do not know the One who sent Me.

But this is to fulfill what is written in their Law: ‘They hated Me without reason.’

…and in regard to judgment, because the prince of this world has been condemned.

I have spoken these things to you in figures of speech. An hour is coming when I will no longer speak to you this way, but will tell you plainly about the Father.

Now we understand that You know all things and that You have no need for anyone to question You. Because of this, we believe that You came from God.”

Now this is eternal life, that they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom You have sent.

This was to fulfill the word He had spoken: “I have not lost one of those You have given Me.”

At this, the servant girl watching the door said to Peter, “Aren’t you also one of this man’s disciples?” “I am not,” he answered.

At this, the servant girl watching the door said to Peter, “Aren’t you also one of this man’s disciples?” “I am not,” he answered.

When Jesus had said this, one of the officers standing nearby slapped Him in the face and said, “Is this how You answer the high priest?”

When Jesus had said this, one of the officers standing nearby slapped Him in the face and said, “Is this how You answer the high priest?”

So Pilate went out to them and asked, “What accusation are you bringing against this man?”

This was to fulfill the word that Jesus had spoken to indicate the kind of death He was going to die.

“Are you saying this on your own,” Jesus asked, “or did others tell you about Me?”

Jesus answered, “My kingdom is not of this world; if it were, My servants would fight to prevent My arrest by the Jews. But now My kingdom is not of this realm.”

Jesus answered, “My kingdom is not of this world; if it were, My servants would fight to prevent My arrest by the Jews. But now My kingdom is not of this realm.”

“Then You are a king!” Pilate said. “You say that I am a king,” Jesus answered. “For this reason I was born and have come into the world, to testify to the truth. Everyone who belongs to the truth listens to My voice.”

“What is truth?” Pilate asked. And having said this, he went out again to the Jews and told them, “I find no basis for a charge against Him.

“Not this man,” they shouted, “but Barabbas!” (Now Barabbas was an insurrectionist.)

When Pilate heard this statement, he was even more afraid,

From then on, Pilate tried to release Him, but the Jews kept shouting, “If you release this man, you are no friend of Caesar. Anyone who declares himself a king is defying Caesar.”

At this, they shouted, “Away with Him! Away with Him! Crucify Him!” “Shall I crucify your King?” Pilate asked. “We have no king but Caesar,” replied the chief priests.

Many of the Jews read this sign, because the place where Jesus was crucified was near the city, and it was written in Hebrew, Latin, and Greek.

So they said to one another, “Let us not tear it. Instead, let us cast lots to see who will get it.” This was to fulfill the Scripture: “They divided My garments among them, and cast lots for My clothing.” So that is what the soldiers did.

Then He said to the disciple, “Here is your mother.” So from that hour, this disciple took her into his home.

After this, knowing that everything had now been accomplished, and to fulfill the Scripture, Jesus said, “I am thirsty.”

The one who saw it has testified to this, and his testimony is true. He knows that he is telling the truth, so that you also may believe.

When she had said this, she turned around and saw Jesus standing there. But she did not recognize that it was Jesus.

After He had said this, He showed them His hands and His side. The disciples rejoiced when they saw the Lord.

When He had said this, He breathed on them and said, “Receive the Holy Spirit.

Jesus performed many other signs in the presence of His disciples, which are not written in this book.

Later, by the Sea of Tiberias, Jesus again revealed Himself to the disciples. He made Himself known in this way:
