Context of John 8:24

22Then said the Jews, Will he kill himself? because he saith, Where I go, ye cannot come. 23And he said to them, Ye are from beneath; I am from above: ye are of this world; I am not of this world. I said therefore to you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I am he, ye shall die in your sins. 25Then said they to him, Who art thou? And Jesus saith to them, Even the same that I said to you from the beginning. 26I have many things to say and to judge of you: but he that sent me is true; and I speak to the world those things which I have heard from him.
