John 7:15-24

15Then the Jews were amazed and said, “How is this man so learned, since he hasn’t been trained?”

16Jesus answered them, “My teaching isn’t mine but is from the one who sent me.

17If anyone wants to do his will, he will know whether the teaching is from God or whether I am speaking on my own.

18The one who speaks on his own seeks his own glory; but he who seeks the glory of the one who sent him is true, and there is no unrighteousness in him.

19Didn’t Moses give you the law? Yet none of you keeps the law. Why are you trying to kill me?”

20“You have a demon!” the crowd responded. “Who is trying to kill you?”

21“I performed one work, and you are all amazed,” Jesus answered.

22“This is why Moses has given you circumcision — not that it comes from Moses but from the fathers — and you circumcise a man on the Sabbath.

23If a man receives circumcision on the Sabbath so that the law of Moses won’t be broken, are you angry at me because I made a man entirely well on the Sabbath?

24Stop judging according to outward appearances; rather judge according to righteous judgment.”
