John 7:7-20

71The world cannot hate you, but it hates Me because I testify of it, that 2its deeds are evil. 8Go up to the feast yourselves; I do not go up to this feast because 3My time has not yet fully come.” 9Having said these things to them, He stayed in Galilee.

10But when His 4brothers had gone up to the feast, then He Himself also went up, not publicly, but as if, in secret. 115So the Jews 6were seeking Him at the feast and were saying, “Where is He?” 12There was much grumbling among the crowds concerning Him; 7some were saying, “He is a good man”; others were saying, “No, on the contrary, He leads the people astray.” 13Yet no one was speaking openly of Him for 8fear of the Jews.

14But when it was now the midst of the feast Jesus went up into the temple, and began to 9teach. 1510The Jews then were astonished, saying, “How has this man 11become learned, having never been educated?” 16So Jesus answered them and said, “12My teaching is not Mine, but His who sent Me. 1713If anyone is willing to do His will, he will know of the teaching, whether it is of God or whether I speak from Myself. 18He who speaks from himself 14seeks his own glory; but He who is seeking the glory of the One who sent Him, He is true, and there is no unrighteousness in Him.

19“15Did not Moses give you the Law, and yet none of you carries out the Law? Why do you 16seek to kill Me?” 20The crowd answered, “17You have a demon! Who seeks to kill You?”
