John 7:7-20

7The world cannot hate you, but it hates Me because I testify of it that its works are evil.

8You go up to this feast. I am not yet going up to this feast, for My time has not yet fully come.”

9When He had said these things to them, He remained in Galilee.

10But when His brothers had gone up, then He also went up to the feast, not openly, but as it were in secret.

11Then the Jews sought Him at the feast, and said, “Where is He?”

12And there was much complaining among the people concerning Him. Some said, “He is good”; others said, “No, on the contrary, He deceives the people.”

13However, no one spoke openly of Him for fear of the Jews.

14Now about the middle of the feast Jesus went up into the temple and taught.

15And the Jews marveled, saying, “How does this Man know letters, having never studied?”

16Jesus answered them and said, “My doctrine is not Mine, but His who sent Me.

17If anyone wills to do His will, he shall know concerning the doctrine, whether it is from God or whether I speak on My own authority.

18He who speaks from himself seeks his own glory; but He who seeks the glory of the One who sent Him is true, and no unrighteousness is in Him.

19Did not Moses give you the law, yet none of you keeps the law? Why do you seek to kill Me?”

20The people answered and said, “You have a demon. Who is seeking to kill You?”
