John 7:9-23

9

Having saidG2036 this, Jesus remainedG3306 inG1722 GalileeG1056. 10ButG1161 after HisG846 brothersG80 had gone upG305 toG1519 theG3588 feastG1859, HeG846 alsoG2532 wentG305—notG3756 publiclyG5320, butG235 inG1722 secretG2927.

11SoG3767 theG3588 JewsG2453 were looking forG2212 HimG846 atG1722 theG3588 feastG1859 andG2532 askingG2036, “WhereG4226 isG1510 HeG1565?”

12

ManyG4183 inG1722 theG3588 crowdsG3793 wereG1510 whisperingG1112 aboutG4012 HimG846. SomeG3588 saidG2036, “He isG1510 a goodG18 man.”

ButG1161 othersG243 repliedG2036, “NoG3756G235, He deceivesG4105 theG3588 peopleG3793.”

13YetG3305 no oneG3762 would speakG2980 publiclyG3954 aboutG4012 HimG846 forG1223 fearG5401 of theG3588 JewsG2453.

14About halfway throughG1161G2235G3322 theG3588 feastG1859, JesusG2424 went upG305 toG1519 theG3588 templeG2411 courts1 andG2532 began to teachG1321. 15TheG3588 JewsG2453 were amazedG2296 and askedG3004, “HowG4459 did thisG3778 man attainG1492 such learningG1121 withoutG3361 having studiedG3129?”

16“MyG1699 teachingG1322 isG1510 notG3756 My ownG1699,” JesusG2424 repliedG611G846G2532G2036. “It comes from Him whoG3588 sentG3992 MeG1473. 17IfG1437 anyoneG5100 desiresG2309 to doG4160 HisG846 willG2307, he will knowG1097G4012 whetherG4220 My teachingG1322 isG1510 fromG1537 GodG2316 orG2228 whether IG1473 speakG2980 onG575 My ownG1683. 18He whoG3588 speaksG2980 onG575 his ownG1438 authority seeksG2212 his ownG2398 gloryG1391, butG1161 He whoG3588 seeksG2212 theG3588 gloryG1391 of theG3588 One who sentG3992 HimG846 isG1510 a man of truthG227; inG1722 HimG846 there isG1510 noG3756 falsehoodG93. 19Has notG3756 MosesG3475 givenG1325 youG4771 theG3588 lawG3551? YetG2532 not oneG3762 ofG1537 youG4771 keepsG4160 it. WhyG5101 are you tryingG2212 to killG615 MeG1473?”

20“You haveG2192 a demonG1140,” theG3588 crowdG3793 repliedG611. “WhoG5101 is tryingG2212 to killG615 YouG4771?”

21JesusG2424 answeredG611G2532G2036 themG846, “I didG4160 oneG1520 miracleG2041, andG2532 you are all amazedG3956G2296. 22But becauseG1223G3778 MosesG3475 gaveG1325 youG4771 circumcisionG4061, you circumciseG4059 a boyG444 onG1722 the SabbathG4521 (notG3756 thatG3754 it isG1510 fromG1537 MosesG3475, butG235 fromG1537 theG3588 patriarchsG3962.) 23IfG1487 a boyG444 can be circumcisedG2983G4061 onG1722 the SabbathG4521 so thatG2443 theG3588 lawG3551 of MosesG3475 will notG3361 be brokenG3089, why are you angryG5520 with MeG1473 forG3754 makingG4160 the wholeG3650 manG444 wellG5199 onG1722 the SabbathG4521?
