The Gospel According to

JOHNJ UST as a coin has two sides, both valid, so Jesus Christ has two natures,both valid. Luke presents Christ in His humanity as the Son of Man; Johnportrays Him in His deity as the Son of God. Johns purpose is crystal clear: toset forth Christ in His deity in order to spark believing faith in his readers.Johns gospel is topical as well as chronological, and it revolves around sevenmiracles and seven I am statements of Christ.

Following an extended eyewitness description of the Upper Room mealand discourse, John records events leading up to the Resurrection, the finalclimactic proof that Jesus is who He claims to bethe Son of God.

The title of the Fourth Gospel follows the same format as the titles of thesynoptic Gospels: Kata Ioannen, According to John. As with the others, theword Gospel was added later. Ioannes is derived from the Hebrew name Johanan, Yahweh Has Been Gracious.

I N the beginning was the Word,and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. v. 14; Gen. 1:1

2 He was in the beginning withGod. v. 18; 10:30

3 All things were made throughHim, and without Him nothing was

made that was made. Col. 1:16

4 In Him was life, and the lifewas the light of men. 1 John 5:11

5 And the light shines in thedarkness, and the darkness did notcomprehend a it. 3:19; Gen. 1:35

6 There was a man sent fromGod, whose name was John. v. 15

7 This man came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all through him might believe. v. 29

8 He was not that Light, but wassent to bear witness of that Light.

9 That was the true Light whichgives light to every man coming into the world. a Is. 49:6

10 He was in the world, and theworld was made through Him, and the world did not know Him. v. 3

11 He came to His own, a and Hisown b did not receive Him. 19:516

12 But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to becomechildren of God, to those who be-lieve in His name: 1 John 3:1

13 who were born, not of blood,nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God. 3:18

14 And the Word became fleshand dwelt among us, and we beheldHis glory, the glory as of the only

begotten of the Father, full of graceand truth. v. 1; 3:16; 14:6; 18:37

15 John bore witness of Him andcried out, saying, This was He of whom I said, He who comes afterme is preferred before me, for Hewas before me. vv. 68; 3:2230

16 Anda

of His fullness we haveall received, and grace for grace.17 For the law was given through

Moses, but grace and truth came through Jesus Christ. Ex. 20:1

18 No one has seen God at any time. The only begotten Son, a whois in the bosom of the Father, He hasdeclared Him. 14:9; Ex. 33:20

19 Now this is the testimony of

John, when the Jews sent priestsand Levites from Jerusalem to askhim, Who are you? 5:33

20 He confessed, and did notdeny, but confessed, I am not theChrist. Luke 3:15, 16

21 And they asked him, What then? Are you Elijah? He said, Iam not. Are you the Prophet?And he answered, No. Matt. 17:1013

22 Then they said to him, Whoare you, that we may give ananswer to those who sent us? What do yousay about yourself?

23 He said: I am

1:5 aOr overcome 1:9 aOr That was the true Lightwhich, coming into the world, gives light to everyman. 1:11 aThat is, His own things or domain bThatis, His own people 1:16 aNU-Text reads For.1:18 aNU-Text reads only begotten God.

1221 J OHN 1:50

The voice of one crying in the wilderness: Is. 40:3

Make straight the way of the LORD , a

as the prophet Isaiah said.24 Now those who were sent were

from the Pharisees.25 And they asked him, saying,

Why then do you baptize if you arenot the Christ, nor Elijah, nor theProphet?

26 John answered them, saying,I baptize with water, but therestands One among you whom youdo not know. Luke 3:16

27 It is He who, coming after me,is preferred before me, whose san-dal strap I am not worthy to loose.

28 These things were done inBethabara a beyond the Jordan,where John was baptizing. 4:1

29 The next day John saw Jesuscoming toward him, and said, Be-hold! The Lamb of God who takes

away the sin of the world! 1 Pet. 1:1930 This is He of whom I said, Af- ter me comes a Man who is pre-ferred before me, for He was beforeme. v. 1

31 I did not know Him; but thatHe should be revealed to Israel, therefore I came baptizing with water. Mal. 3:1; Matt. 3:6

32 And John bore witness, saying,

I saw the Spirit descending fromheaven like a dove, and He re-mained upon Him. Matt. 3:16

33 I did not know Him, but Hewho sent me to baptize with watersaid to me, Upon whom you see theSpirit descending, and remainingon Him, this is He who baptizeswith the Holy Spirit. Matt. 3:11

34 And I have seen and testified that this is the Son of God. 11:27

35 Again, the next day, John stoodwith two of his disciples.

36 And looking at Jesus as Hewalked, he said, Behold the Lambof God! v. 29; 19:36; Ex. 12:46

37 The two disciples heard himspeak, and they followed Jesus.

38 Then Jesus turned, and seeing them following, said to them,What do you seek? They said to

Him, Rabbi (which is to say, when translated, Teacher), where areYou staying?

39 He said to them, Come andsee. They came and saw where Hewas staying, and remained withHim that day (now it was about the tenth hour).

40 One of the two who heard Johnspeak, and followed Him, was An-drew, Simon Peters brother.

41 He first found his own brotherSimon, and said to him, We havefound the Messiah (which is trans-lated, the Christ). 4:25; Matt. 4:18, 19

42 And he brought him to Jesus.Now when Jesus looked at him, Hesaid, You are Simon the son of Jo-nah. a You shall be called Cephas(which is translated, A Stone).

43 The following day Jesuswanted to go to Galilee, and Hefound Philip and said to him, Fol-low Me. 6:5, 7; 12:21, 22; 14:8

44 Now Philip was from Bethsa-ida, the city of Andrew and Peter.

45 Philip found Nathanael andsaid to him, We have found Him of whom Moses in the law, and also the prophets, wroteJesus of Naza-reth, the son of Joseph.

46 And Nathanael said to him,Can anything good come out of Nazareth? Philip said to him,Come and see. Matt. 2:23

47 Jesus saw Nathanael coming toward Him, and said of him, Be-hold, an Israelite indeed, in whomis no deceit! 1 Pet. 2:1, 22

48 Nathanael said to Him, Howdo You know me? Jesus answeredand said to him, Before Philipcalled you, when you were under the fig tree, I saw you.

49 Nathanael answered and said to Him, Rabbi, You are the Son of God! You are the King of Israel!

50 Jesus answered and said tohim, Because I said to you, I sawyou under the fig tree, do you be-lieve? You will see greater things than these. 14:12

1222J OHN 1:51

51 And He said to him, Most as-suredly, I say to you, hereafter a youshall see heaven open, and the an-gels of God ascending and descend-ing upon the Son of Man. Gen. 28:12

2 On the third day there was awedding in Cana of Galilee, and the mother of Jesus was there.

2 Now both Jesus and His disci-ples were invited to the wedding.

3 And when they ran out of wine, the mother of Jesus said to Him,They have no wine.

4 Jesus said to her, Woman,what does your concern have to dowith Me? My hour has not yetcome. 7:30; 8:20; 12:27; 13:1

5 His mother said to the servants, Whatever He says to you, doit.

6 Now there were set there sixwaterpots of stone, according to themanner of purification of the Jews,containing twenty or thirty gallonsapiece. Mark 7:3

7 Jesus said to them, Fill thewaterpots with water. And theyfilled them up to the brim.

8 And He said to them, Drawsome out now, and take it to themaster of the feast. And they tookit.

9 When the master of the feasthad tasted the water that was madewine, and did not know where it

came from (but the servants whohad drawn the water knew), themaster of the feast called the bride-groom. 4:46

10 And he said to him, Everyman at the beginning sets out thegood wine, and when the guestshave well drunk, then the inferior.You have kept the good wine untilnow!

11 This beginning of signs Jesusdid in Cana of Galilee, and mani-fested His glory; and His disciplesbelieved in Him. 1:14; 4:54

12 After this He went down to Ca-pernaum, He, His mother, Hisbrothers, and His disciples; and they did not stay there many days.

13 Now the Passover of the Jewswas at hand, and Jesus went up toJerusalem. Deut. 16:16

14 And He found in the temple those who sold oxen and sheep anddoves, and the money changers do-ing business. Matt. 21:12, 13

15 When He had made a whip of cords, He drove them all out of the temple, with the sheep and theoxen, and poured out the changersmoney and overturned the tables.

16 And He said to those who solddoves, Take these things away!Do not make My Fathers house ahouse of merchandise! Luke 2:49

17 Then His disciples remem-bered that it was written, Zeal for Your house has eaten a Me up. b

18 So the Jews answered and said to Him, What sign do You show tous, since You do these things?

19 Jesus answered and said to them, Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.

20 Then the Jews said, It has taken forty-six years to build this temple, and will You raise it up in three days? Matt. 26:61

21 But He was speaking of the temple of His body. 20:12, 20

22 Therefore, when He had risenfrom the dead, His disciples remem-bered that He had said this to them; aand they believed the Scripture and the word which Jesus had said.

23 Now when He was in Jerusa-

lem at the Passover, during thefeast, many believed in His namewhen they saw the signs which Hedid. 3:2

24 But Jesus did not commit Him-self to them, because He knew allmen, 21:17; Matt. 9:4

25 and had no need that anyoneshould testify of man, for He knewwhat was in man. 6:64; 16:30

3 There was a man of the Phari-sees named Nicodemus, a rulerof the Jews. 8:50, 51; 19:39422 This man came to Jesus by

night and said to Him, Rabbi, weknow that You are a teacher comefrom God; for no one can do these

signs that You do unless God is withhim. 2:23; 9:16, 33

3 Jesus answered and said tohim, Most assuredly, I say to you,unless one is born again, he cannotsee the kingdom of God. 1:12, 13

4 Nicodemus said to Him, Howcan a man be born when he is old?Can he enter a second time into hismothers womb and be born?

5 Jesus answered, Most as-suredly, I say to you, unless one isborn of water and the Spirit, he can-not enter the kingdom of God. 7:38

6 That which is born of the fleshis flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. 6:63

7 Do not marvel that I said toyou, You must be born again. v. 3

8 The wind blows where itwishes, and you hear the sound of it, but cannot tell where it comesfrom and where it goes. So is every-one who is born of the Spirit. v. 6

9 Nicodemus answered and said

to Him, How can these things be?10 Jesus answered and said tohim, Are you the teacher of Israel,and do not know these things?

11 Most assuredly, I say to you,We speak what We know and testifywhat We have seen, and you do notreceive Our witness. Matt. 11:27

12 If I have told you earthly things and you do not believe, how

will you believe if I tell you heavenly things?13 No one has ascended to

heaven but He who came downfrom heaven, that is, the Son of Man who is in heaven. a Eph. 4:9

14 And as Moses lifted up theserpent in the wilderness, even somust the Son of Man be lifted up,

15 that whoever believes in Himshould not perish but a have eternallife. v. 36; 6:47

16 For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Himshould not perish but have everlast-ing life. 1 John 4:9

17 For God did not send His Soninto the world to condemn theworld, but that the world throughHim might be saved. Luke 9:56

18 He who believes in Him is notcondemned; but he who does notbelieve is condemned already, be-cause he has not believed in thename of the only begotten Son of God. 5:24; 1 John 5:11, 12

19 And this is the condemnation, that the light has come into theworld, and men loved darknessrather than light, because theirdeeds were evil. 1:4, 911; 8:44

20 For everyone practicing evilhates the light and does not come to the light, lest his deeds should beexposed. Eph. 5:11, 13

21 But he who does the truthcomes to the light, that his deedsmay be clearly seen, that they havebeen done in God. 1 Cor. 15:10

22 After these things Jesus andHis disciples came into the land of Judea, and there He remained with them and baptized. 4:1

23 Now John also was baptizingin Aenon near Salim, because there

was much water there. And theycame and were baptized. Matt. 3:5, 624 For John had not yet been

thrown into prison. Luke 3:19, 2025 Then there arose a dispute be-

tween some of Johns disciples and the Jews about purification.

26 And they came to John andsaid to him, Rabbi, He who waswith you beyond the Jordan, to

whom you have testifiedbehold,He is baptizing, and all are coming to Him! v. 22; 4:1

27 John answered and said, Aman can receive nothing unless ithas been given to him from heaven.

28 You yourselves bear me wit-ness, that I said, I am not theChrist, but, I have been sent beforeHim. 1:20

29 He who has the bride is thebridegroom; but the friend of thebridegroom, who stands and hearshim, rejoices greatly because of thebridegrooms voice. Therefore this joy of mine is fulfilled. Rev. 21:9

30 He must increase, but I mustdecrease.

3:13 aNU-Text omits who is in heaven. 3:15 aNU-Textomits not perish but.

1224J OHN 3:31

31 He who comes from above isabove all; he who is of the earth isearthly and speaks of the earth. Hewho comes from heaven is aboveall. v. 13; Matt. 28:18

32 And what He has seen andheard, that He testifies; and no onereceives His testimony.

33 He who has received His testi-mony has certified that God is true.

34 For He whom God has sentspeaks the words of God, for Goddoes not give the Spirit by measure.

35 The Father loves the Son, andhas given all things into His hand.

36 He who believes in the Sonhas everlasting life; and he whodoes not believe the Son shall notsee life, but the wrath of God abideson him. vv. 1618; 1 John 5:10

4 Therefore, when the Lord knew that the Pharisees had heard that Jesus made and baptized moredisciples than John 3:22, 26

2 (though Jesus Himself did not

baptize, but His disciples), 1 Cor. 1:143 He left Judea and departedagain to Galilee.

4 But He needed to go throughSamaria.

5 So He came to a city of Sa-maria which is called Sychar, near the plot of ground that Jacob gave to his son Joseph. Gen. 33:19; 48:22

6 Now Jacobs well was there.

Jesus therefore, being wearied fromHis journey, sat thus by the well. Itwas about the sixth hour.

7 A woman of Samaria came todraw water. Jesus said to her, GiveMe a drink.

8 For His disciples had goneaway into the city to buy food. v. 32

9 Then the woman of Samariasaid to Him, How is it that You,being a Jew, ask a drink from me, aSamaritan woman? For Jews haveno dealings with Samaritans.

10 Jesus answered and said to her,If you knew the gift of God, andwho it is who says to you, Give Mea drink, youwould have asked Him,and He would have given you livingwater. 7:38; Is. 12:3; 44:3

11 The woman said to Him, Sir,You have nothing to draw with, and

the well is deep. Where then do Youget that living water?

12 Are You greater than our father Jacob, who gave us the well,and drank from it himself, as wellas his sons and his livestock?

13 Jesusanswered and said to her,Whoever drinks of this water will thirst again,

14 but whoever drinks of the water that I shall give him will never thirst. But the water that I shall givehim will become in him a fountainof water springing up into everlast-ing life. 7:37, 38

15 The woman said to Him, Sir,give me this water, that I may not thirst, nor come here to draw. 6:34

16 Jesus said to her, Go, call yourhusband, and come here.

17 The woman answered andsaid, I have no husband. Jesussaid to her, You have well said, Ihave no husband,

18 for you have had five hus-

bands, and the one whom you nowhave is not your husband; in thatyou spoke truly.

19 The woman said to Him, Sir, Iperceive that You are a prophet.

20 Our fathers worshiped on thismountain, and you Jews say that inJerusalem is the place where oneought to worship. Deut. 12:5, 11

21 Jesus said to her, Woman, be-

lieve Me, the hour is coming whenyou will neither on this mountain,nor in Jerusalem, worship the Fa- ther.

22 You worship what you do notknow; we know what we worship,for salvation is of the Jews. Rom. 9:5

23 But the hour is coming, andnow is, when the true worshiperswill worship the Father in spirit and truth; for the Father is seeking such to worship Him.

24 God is Spirit, and those whoworship Him must worship in spiritand truth. 2 Cor. 3:17

25 The woman said to Him, Iknow that Messiah is coming (whois called Christ). When He comes,He will tell us all things. 1:41

26 Jesus said to her, I who speak to you am He. Matt. 26:63, 64

1225 J OHN 5:2

27 And at this point His disciplescame, and they marveled that He talked with a woman; yet no onesaid, What do You seek? or, Whyare You talking with her?

28 Thewoman then left her water-pot, went her way into the city, andsaid to the men,

29 Come, see a Man who told meall things that I ever did. Could thisbe the Christ? v. 25

30 Then they went out of the cityand came to Him.

31 In the meantime His disciplesurged Him, saying, Rabbi, eat.

32 But He said to them, I havefood to eat of which you do notknow. v. 8

33 Therefore the disciples said toone another, Has anyone broughtHim anything to eat?

34 Jesus said to them, My food is to do the will of Him who sent Me,and to finish His work. 6:38

35 Do you not say, There are still

four months and then comes theharvest? Behold, I say to you, liftup your eyes and look at the fields,for they are already white for har- vest! Matt. 9:37, 38

36 And he who reaps receiveswages, and gathers fruit for eternallife, that both he who sows and hewho reaps may rejoice together.

37 For in this the saying is true:

One sows and another reaps.38 I sent you to reap that forwhich you have not labored; othershave labored, and you have enteredinto their labors.

39 And many of the Samaritansof that city believed in Him becauseof the word of the woman who testi-fied, He told me all that I ever did.

40 So when the Samaritans hadcome to Him, they urged Him tostay with them; and He stayed there two days.

41 And many more believed be-cause of His own word. Luke 4:32

42 Then they said to the woman,Now we believe, not because of what you said, for we ourselveshave heard Him and we know that this is indeed the Christ, a the Saviorof the world. 1 John 4:14

43 Now after the two days He de-parted from there and went to Gal-ilee.

44 For Jesus Himself testified thata prophet has no honor in his owncountry. Matt. 13:57

45 So when He came to Galilee, the Galileans received Him, havingseen all the things He did in Jerusa-lem at the feast; for they also hadgone to the feast. 2:13, 23; 3:2

46 So Jesus came again to Canaof Galilee where He had made thewater wine. And there was a certainnobleman whose son was sick atCapernaum. 2:111

47 When he heard that Jesus hadcome out of Judea into Galilee, hewent to Him and implored Him tocome down and heal his son, for hewas at the point of death.

48 Then Jesus said to him, Un-less you people see signs and won-ders, you will by no means believe.

49 The nobleman said to Him,

Sir, come down before my childdies!50 Jesus said to him, Go your

way; your son lives. So the manbelieved the word that Jesus spoke to him, and he went his way.

51 And as he was now goingdown, his servants met him and toldhim, saying, Your son lives!

52 Then he inquired of them the

hour when he got better. And theysaid to him, Yesterday at the sev-enth hour the fever left him.

53 So the father knew that it wasat the same hour inwhichJesus said to him, Your son lives. And hehimself believed, and his wholehousehold. Matt. 9:513

54 This again is the second signJesus did when He had come out of Judea into Galilee. 2:11

5 After this there was a feast of the Jews, and Jesus went up toJerusalem. 2:13; Deut. 16:16

2 Now there is in Jerusalem by the Sheep Gate a pool, which iscalled in Hebrew, Bethesda, a havingfive porches. Neh. 3:1, 32; 12:39

4:42 aNU-Text omits the Christ. 5:2 aNU-Text readsBethzatha.

1226J OHN 5:3

3 In these lay a great multitude of sick people, blind, lame, paralyzed,waiting for the moving of the water.

4 For an angel went down at acertain time into the pool andstirred up the water; then whoeverstepped in first, after the stirring of the water, was made well of what-ever disease he had. a v. 7

5 Now a certain man was therewho had an infirmity thirty-eightyears.

6 When Jesus saw him lying there, and knew that he already hadbeen in that condition a long time,He said to him, Do you want to bemade well?

7 The sick man answered Him,Sir, I have no man to put me into the pool when the water is stirredup; but while I am coming, anothersteps down before me. vv. 3, 4

8 Jesus said to him, Rise, takeup your bed and walk. Matt. 9:6

9 And immediately the man wasmade well, took up his bed, andwalked. And that day was the Sab-bath. 9:14

10 The Jews therefore said to himwho was cured, It is the Sabbath;it is not lawful for you to carry yourbed. 9:16; Matt. 12:10

11 He answered them, He whomade me well said to me, Take upyour bed and walk.

12 Then they asked him, Who is the Man who said to you, Take upyour bed and walk ?

13 But the one who was healeddid not know who it was, for Jesushad withdrawn, a multitude beingin that place. Luke 13:14; 22:51

14 Afterward Jesus found him in the temple, and said to him, See,you have been made well. Sin nomore, lest a worse thing come uponyou. 8:11

15 The man departed and told theJews that it was Jesus who hadmade him well.

16 For this reason the Jews perse-cuted Jesus, and sought to kill Him, abecause He had done these thingson the Sabbath. 8:37; 10:39

17 But Jesus answered them, My

Father has been working until now,and I have been working. 9:4

18 Therefore the Jews sought all the more to kill Him, because Henot only broke the Sabbath, but alsosaid that God was His Father, mak-ing Himself equal with God. 10:30

19 Then Jesus answered and said to them, Most assuredly, I say toyou, the Son can do nothing of Him-self, but what He sees the Father do;for whatever He does, the Son alsodoes in like manner. v. 30; 6:38

20 For the Father loves the Son,and shows Him all things that HeHimself does; and He will showHim greater works than these, thatyou may marvel. Matt. 3:17; 11:27

21 For as the Father raises thedead and gives life to them, even so the Son gives life to whom He will.

22 For the Father judges no one,but has committed all judgment to the Son, Acts 17:31; 2 Tim. 4:1

23 that all should honor the Son just as they honor the Father. Hewho does not honor the Son doesnot honor the Father who sent Him.

24 Most assuredly, I say to you,he who hears My word and believesin Him who sent Me has everlastinglife, and shall not come into judg-ment, but has passed from deathinto life. 3:1618; Rom. 8:1

25 Most assuredly, I say to you, the hour is coming, and now is,when the dead will hear the voiceof the Son of God; and those whohear will live. Eph. 2:1, 5; Col. 2:13

26 For as the Father has life inHimself, so He has granted the Son to have life in Himself, 1 Cor. 15:45

27 and has given Him authority to execute judgment also, because

He is the Son of Man. Dan. 7:13, 1428 Do not marvel at this; for thehour is coming in which all who arein the graves will hear His voice

29 and come forththose whohave done good, to the resurrectionof life, and those who have done

evil, to the resurrection of condem-nation. Dan. 12:2; Rev. 20:1115

30 I can of Myself do nothing. AsI hear, I judge; and My judgment isrighteous, because I do not seek Myown will but the will of the Fatherwho sent Me. v. 19; Matt. 26:39

31 If I bear witness of Myself, Mywitness is not true. 8:14

32 There is another who bearswitness of Me, and I know that thewitness which He witnesses of Meis true. 1 John 5:6

33 You have sent to John, and hehas borne witness to the truth.

34 Yet I do not receive testimonyfrom man, but I say these things thatyou may be saved.

35 He was the burning and shin-ing lamp, and you were willing for a time to rejoice in his light. Matt. 5:14

36 But I have a greater witness than Johns; for the works which theFather has given Me to finishthe very works that I dobear witness

of Me, that the Father has sent Me.37 And the Father Himself, whosent Me, has testified of Me. Youhave neither heard His voice at any time, nor seen His form. 1 John 4:12

38 But you do not have His wordabiding in you, because whom Hesent, Him you do not believe.

39 You search the Scriptures, forin them you think you have eternal

life; and these are they which testifyof Me. Is. 8:20; 34:16; Luke 24:2740 But you are not willing to

come to Me that you may have life.41 I do not receive honor from

men. 1 Thess. 2:642 But I know you, that you do

not have the love of God in you.43 I have come in My Fathers

name, and you do not receive Me; if another comes in his own name,him you will receive. 1:12

44 How can you believe, who re-ceive honor from one another, anddo not seek the honor that comesfrom the only God? 12:43

45 Do not think that I shall ac-cuse you to the Father; there is onewho accuses youMoses, in whomyou trust. Rom. 2:12

46 For if you believed Moses, you

would believe Me; for he wroteabout Me. Deut. 18:15, 18

47 But if you do not believe hiswritings, how will you believe Mywords? Luke 16:29, 31

6 After these things Jesus wentover the Sea of Galilee, which isthe Sea of Tiberias. v. 23; 21:1

2 Then a great multitude fol-lowed Him, because they saw Hissigns which He performed on thosewho were diseased. Matt. 4:23; 8:16

3 And Jesus went up on themountain, and there He sat with Hisdisciples.

4 Now the Passover, a feast of theJews, was near. Lev. 23:5

5 Then Jesus lifted up His eyes,and seeing a great multitude com-ing toward Him, He said to Philip,Where shall we buy bread, that these may eat? Matt. 14:1421

6 But this He said to test him, forHe Himself knew what He woulddo.

7 Philip answered Him, Twohundred denarii worth of bread isnot sufficient for them, that everyone of them may have a little.

8 One of His disciples, Andrew,Simon Peters brother, said to Him,

9 There is a lad here who hasfive barley loaves and two smallfish, but what are they among somany? 2 Kin. 4:43

10 Then Jesus said, Make thepeople sit down. Now there wasmuch grass in the place. So the mensat down, in number about five thousand.

11 And Jesus took the loaves, andwhen He had given thanks He dis- tributed them to the disciples, and the disciples a to those sitting down;and likewise of the fish, as much as they wanted. Luke 22:19

12 So when they were filled, Hesaid to His disciples, Gather up thefragments that remain, so that noth-ing is lost.

13 Therefore they gathered themup, and filled twelve baskets with the fragments of the five barley

41 The Jews then complainedabout Him, because He said, I am the bread which came down fromheaven. vv. 33, 35

42 And they said, Is not thisJesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? How isit then that He says, I have comedown from heaven ? Matt. 13:55

43 Jesus therefore answered andsaid to them, Do not murmuramong yourselves.

44 No one cancome toMeunless the Father who sent Me draws him;and I will raise him up at the lastday. Phil. 1:29; 1 Thess. 2:13, 14

45 It is written in the prophets,And they shall all be taught by God. a Therefore everyone who hasheard and learned b from the Fathercomes to Me. Is. 54:13

46 Not that anyone has seen theFather, except He who is from God;He has seen the Father. 1:8

47 Most assuredly, I say to you,he who believes in Me a has everlast-ing life. 3:16, 18

48 I am the bread of life. v. 3549 Your fathers ate the manna in

the wilderness, and are dead.50 This is the bread which comes

down from heaven, that one mayeat of it and not die. vv. 51, 58

51 I am the living bread whichcame down from heaven. If anyoneeats of this bread, he will live for-ever; and the bread that I shall giveis My flesh, which I shall give for the life of the world. vv. 35, 48

52 The Jews therefore quarreledamong themselves, saying, Howcan this Man give us His flesh toeat? 7:43; 9:16; 10:19

53 Then Jesus said to them, Mostassuredly, I say to you, unless youeat the flesh of the Son of Man anddrink His blood, you have no life inyou. Matt. 26:26

54 Whoever eats My flesh anddrinks My blood has eternal life,and I will raise him up at the lastday. vv. 27, 40; 4:14

55 For My flesh is food indeed, aand My blood is drink indeed.

56 He who eats My flesh and

drinks My blood abides in Me, andI in him. 1 John 3:24; 4:15, 16

57 As the living Father sent Me,and I live because of the Father, sohe who feeds on Me will live be-cause of Me.

58 This is the bread which camedown from heavennot as your fathers ate the manna, and are dead.He who eats this bread will live for-ever. vv. 4951; Ex. 16:3135

59 These things He said in thesynagogue as He taught in Caper-naum.

60 Therefore many of His disci-ples, when they heard this, said,

This is a hard saying; who can un-derstand it? v. 66

61 When Jesus knew in Himself that His disciples complained about this, He said to them, Does this of-fend you?

62 What then if you should see the Son of Man ascend where He

was before? Acts 1:9; 2:32, 3363 It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh profits nothing. The words that I speak toyouare spirit, and theyare life. v. 68; 14:24; 2 Cor. 3:6

64 But there are some of youwho do not believe. For Jesus knewfrom the beginning who they werewho did not believe, and who wouldbetray Him. v. 36; 2:24, 25; 13:11

65 And He said, Therefore I havesaid to you that no one can come toMe unless it has been granted tohim by My Father. vv. 37, 44, 45

66 From that time many of Hisdisciples went back and walkedwith Him no more.

67 Then Jesus said to the twelve,Do you also want to go away?

68 But Simon Peter answered

Him, Lord, to whom shall we go?You have the words of eternal life.69 Also we have come to believe

and know that You are the Christ, the Son of the living God. a Matt. 16:16

70 Jesus answered them, Did I

not choose you, the twelve, and oneof you is a devil? 13:27; 17:12

71 He spoke of Judas Iscariot, theson of Simon, for it was he whowould betray Him, being one of the twelve. 18:2, 3

7 After these things Jesus walkedin Galilee; for He did not want towalk in Judea, because the Jews asought to kill Him. vv. 19, 25; 5:18

2 Now the Jews Feast of Taber-nacles was at hand. Lev. 23:34

3 His brothers therefore said toHim, Depart from here and go intoJudea, that Your disciples also maysee the works that You are doing.

4 For no one does anything insecret while he himself seeks to beknown openly. If You do these things, show Yourself to the world.

5 For even His brothers did notbelieve in Him. Ps. 69:8

6 Then Jesus said to them, My time has not yet come, but your timeis always ready.

7 The world cannot hate you,but it hates Me because I testify of it that its works are evil. 15:19

8 You go up to this feast. I amnot yet a going up to this feast, forMy time has not yet fully come.

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

10 But when His brothers hadgone up, then He also went up to

the feast, not openly, but as it werein secret.11 Then the Jews sought Him at

the feast, and said, Where is He?12 And there was muchcomplain-

ing among the people concerningHim. Some said, He is good;others said, No, on the contrary,He deceives the people. 9:16; 10:19

13 However, no one spoke openlyof Him for fear of the Jews. 9:22

14 Now about the middle of thefeast Jesus went up into the templeand taught. Mark 6:34

15 And the Jews marveled, say-ing, How does this Man know let- ters, having never studied?

16 Jesus a answered them andsaid, My doctrine is not Mine, butHis who sent Me. 3:11

17 If anyone wills to do His will,

he shall know concerning the doctrine, whether it is from God orwhether I speak on My own au-thority.

18 He who speaks from himself seeks his own glory; but He whoseeks the glory of the One who sentHim is true, and no unrighteousnessis in Him. v. 50; 2 Cor. 5:21

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

20 The people answered and said,You have a demon. Who is seeking to kill You? 8:48, 52

21 Jesus answered and said to them, I did one work, and you allmarvel.

22 Moses therefore gave you cir-cumcision (not that it is from Moses,but from the fathers), and you cir-cumcise a man on the Sabbath.

23 If a man receives circumci-sion on the Sabbath, so that the lawof Moses should not be broken, areyou angry with Me because I madea man completely well on the Sab-bath? 5:8, 9, 16; Lev. 12:2, 3

24 Do not judge according to ap-pearance, but judge with righteous judgment. Prov. 24:23

25 Now some of them from Jeru-salem said, Is this not He whom they seek to kill?

26 But look! He speaks boldly,and they say nothing to Him. Do therulersknow indeed that this is truly a the Christ? v. 48

27 However, we know where thisMan is from; but when the Christcomes, no one knows where He isfrom. Matt. 2:46, 23

28 Then Jesus cried out, as He taught in the temple, saying, Youboth know Me, and you knowwhere I am from; and I have notcome of Myself, but He who sentMe is true, whom you do not know.

29 But a I know Him, for I amfrom Him, and He sent Me. 6:33

Him; but no one laid a hand on Him,because His hour had not yet come.

31 And many of the people be-lieved in Him, and said, When theChrist comes, will He do more signs than these which this Man hasdone? Matt. 12:22, 23

32 The Pharisees heard the crowdmurmuring these thingsconcerningHim, and the Pharisees and thechief priests sent officers to takeHim.

33 Then Jesus said to them, a Ishall be with you a little whilelonger, and then I go to Him whosent Me. 13:33; Luke 24:51

34 You will seek Me and not find Me, and where I am you cannotcome. Hos. 5:6

35 Then the Jews said among themselves, Where does He intend to go that we shall not find Him?Does He intend to go to the Disper-sion among the Greeks and teach the Greeks?

36 What is this thing that Hesaid, You will seek Me and not findMe, and where I am you cannotcome ?

37 On the last day, that great dayof the feast, Jesus stood and criedout, saying, If anyone thirsts, lethim come to Me and drink. Is. 55:1

38 He who believes in Me, as theScripture has said, out of his heart

will flow rivers of living water.39 But this He spoke concerning the Spirit, whom those believing a inHim would receive; for the Holy bSpirit was not yet given, becauseJesus was not yet glorified. 3:5

40 Therefore many a from thecrowd, when they heard this saying,said, Truly this is the Prophet. 1:21

41 Others said, This is theChrist. But some said, Will theChrist come out of Galilee? 4:42

42 Has not the Scripture said that the Christ comes from the seedof David and from the town of Beth-lehem, where David was? Mic. 5:2

43 So there was a division among the people because of Him. v. 12

44 Now some of them wanted to take Him, but no one laid hands onHim. v. 30

45 Then the officers came to thechief priests and Pharisees, whosaid to them, Why have you notbrought Him? v. 32

46 The officers answered, Noman ever spoke like this Man!47 Then the Pharisees answered

them, Are you also deceived?48 Have any of the rulers or the

Pharisees believed in Him?49 But this crowd that does not

know the law is accursed.50 Nicodemus (he who came to

Jesus by night, a being one of them)

said to them, 3:1, 2; 19:3951 Does our law judge a man be-fore it hears him and knows whathe is doing? Deut. 1:16, 17; 19:15

52 They answered and said tohim, Are you also from Galilee?Search and look, for no prophet hasarisen a out of Galilee. 2 Kin. 14:25

53 And everyone went to his ownhouse. a

8 But Jesus went to the Mount of Olives.2 Now early a in the morning He

came again into the temple, and all the people came to Him; and He satdown and taught them.

3 Then the scribes and Phariseesbrought to Him a woman caught inadultery. And when they had set her

in the midst,4 they said to Him, Teacher, thiswoman was caught a in adultery, in the very act. Ex. 20:14

5 Now Moses, in the law, com-manded a us that such should bestoned. b But what do You say? c

6 This they said, testing Him, that they might have something of which to accuse Him. But Jesus

1233 J OHN 9:3

How can You say, You will be madefree ? Matt. 3:9

34 Jesus answered them, Mostassuredly, I say to you, whoever com-mits sin is a slave of sin. Rom. 6:6

35 And a slave does not abide in the house forever, but a son abidesforever. Gal. 4:30

36 Therefore if the Son makesyou free, you shall be free indeed.

37 I know that you are Abra-hams descendants, but you seek tokill Me, because My word has noplace in you. 7:19

38 I speak what I have seen withMy Father, and you do what youhave seen with a your father. 5:19

39 They answered and said toHim, Abraham is our father. Jesussaid to them, If you were Abra-hams children, you would do theworks of Abraham. Matt. 3:9

40 But now you seek to kill Me,a Man who has told you the truthwhich I heard from God. Abraham

did not do this. vv. 26, 3741 You do the deeds of your father. Then they said to Him, Wewere not born of fornication; wehave one FatherGod. Is. 63:16

42 Jesus said to them, If Godwere your Father, you would loveMe, for I proceeded forth and camefrom God; nor have I come of My-self, but He sent Me. 1 John 5:1

43 Why do you not understandMy speech? Because you are notable to listen to My word. 7:17

44 You are of your father thedevil, and the desires of your fatheryou want to do. He was a murdererfrom the beginning, and does notstand in the truth, because there isno truth in him. When he speaks alie, he speaks from his own re-sources, for he is a liar and the father of it. 1 John 2:16, 17; 3:810, 15

45 But because I tell the truth,you do not believe Me.

46 Which of you convicts Me of sin? And if I tell the truth, why doyou not believe Me?

47 He who is of God hears Godswords; therefore you do not hear,because you are not of God. 10:26

48 Then the Jews answered and

said to Him, Do we not say rightly that You are a Samaritan and havea demon? 7:20; 10:20

49 Jesus answered, I do not havea demon; but I honor My Father, andyou dishonor Me. 5:44

50 And I do not seek My ownglory; there is One who seeks and judges. 5:41; 7:18

51 Most assuredly, I say to you,if anyone keeps My word he shallnever see death. 5:24; 11:25, 26

52 Then the Jews said to Him,Now we know that You have a de-mon! Abraham is dead, and theprophets; and You say, If anyonekeeps My word he shall never tastedeath. Heb. 11:13

53 Are You greater than our father Abraham, who is dead? And the prophets are dead. Who do Youmake Yourself out to be? 19:7

54 Jesus answered, If I honorMyself, My honor is nothing. It isMy Father who honors Me, of whom you say that He is your

a

God.55 Yet you have not known Him,but I know Him. And if I say, I donot know Him, I shall be a liar likeyou; but I do know Him and keepHis word. 7:28, 29; 15:10

56 Your father Abraham rejoiced to see My day, and he saw it andwas glad. Luke 10:24; Heb. 11:13

57 Then the Jews said to Him,

You are not yet fifty years old, andhave You seen Abraham?58 Jesus said to them, Most as-

suredly, I say to you, before Abra-ham was, I AM. Ex. 3:14

59 Then they took up stones to throw at Him; but Jesus hid Himself and went out of the temple, a going through the midst of them, and sopassed by. 10:31; 11:8; Luke 4:30

9 Now as Jesus passed by, He sawa man who was blind from birth.2 And His disciples asked Him,saying, Rabbi, who sinned, thisman or his parents, that he wasborn blind? Luke 13:2; Acts 28:4

3 Jesus answered, Neither this

man nor his parents sinned, but that the works of God should be revealed in him. 11:4

4 Ia must work the works of Him who sent Me while it is day;the night is coming when no onecan work.

5 As long as I am in the world,I am the light of the world. 8:12

6 When He had said these things, He spat on the ground andmade clay with the saliva; and Heanointed the eyes of the blind manwith the clay. Mark 7:33; 8:23

7 And He said to him, Go, washin the pool of Siloam (which is translated, Sent). So he went andwashed, and came back seeing.

8 Therefore the neighbors and those who previously had seen thathe was blind a said, Is not this hewho sat and begged?

9 Some said, This is he. Otherssaid, He is like him. a He said, Iam he.

10 Therefore they said to him,How were your eyes opened?11 He answered and said, A Man

called Jesus made clay andanointed my eyes and said to me,Go to the pool of a Siloam andwash. So I went and washed, and Ireceived sight. vv. 6, 7

12 Then they said to him, Whereis He? He said, I do not know.

13 They brought him who for-merly was blind to the Pharisees.14 Now it was a Sabbath when

Jesus made the clay and opened hiseyes. 5:9, 10, 16

15 Then the Pharisees also askedhim again how he had received hissight. He said to them, He put clayon my eyes, and I washed, and Isee. vv. 6, 7

16 Therefore some of the Phari-sees said, This Man is not fromGod, because He does not keep theSabbath. Others said, How can aman who is a sinner do such signs?And there was a division among them. v. 33; 3:2; 7:12, 43; 10:19

17 They said to the blind managain, What do you say about Himbecause He opened your eyes? Hesaid, He is a prophet. 4:19; 6:14

18 But the Jews did not believeconcerning him, that he had beenblind and received his sight, until they called the parents of him whohad received his sight.

19 And they asked them, saying,Is this your son, who you say wasborn blind? How then does he nowsee?

20 His parents answered themand said, We know that this is ourson, and that he was born blind;

21 but by what means he nowsees we do not know, or whoopened his eyes we do not know. Heis of age; ask him. He will speak forhimself.

22 His parents said these thingsbecause they feared the Jews, for the Jews had agreed already that if anyone confessed that He wasChrist, he would be put out of thesynagogue. v. 34; 7:13; 16:2

23 Therefore his parents said, Heis of age; ask him.

24 So they again called the manwho was blind, and said to him,Give God the glory! We know that this Man is a sinner. v. 16; Josh. 7:19

25 He answered and said,Whether He is a sinner or not I donot know. One thing I know: that though I was blind, now I see.

26 Then they said to him again,What did He do to you? How did

He open your eyes?27 He answered them, I told youalready, and you did not listen. Whydo you want to hear it again? Doyou also want to become His disci-ples? v. 11

28 Then they reviled him and said,You are His disciple, but we areMoses disciples.

29 We know that God spoke to

Moses; as for this fellow, we do notknow where He is from. 7:2730 The man answered and said to

them, Why, this is a marvelous thing, that you do not know whereHe is from; yet He has opened myeyes! 3:10

1235 J OHN 10:19

31 Now we know that God doesnot hear sinners; but if anyone is aworshiper of God and does His will,He hears him. Zech. 7:13

32 Since the world began it hasbeen unheard of that anyoneopened the eyes of one who wasborn blind.

33 If this Man were not fromGod, He could do nothing. v. 16; 3:2

34 They answered and said tohim, You were completely born insins, and are you teaching us? And they cast him out. v. 2; Ps. 51:5

35 Jesus heard that they had casthim out; and when He had foundhim, He said to him, Do you be-lieve in the Son of God? a 1:7; 10:36

36 He answered and said, Whois He, Lord, that I may believe inHim?

37 And Jesus said to him, Youhave both seen Him and it isHe whois talking with you. 4:26

38 Then he said, Lord, I believe!

And he worshiped Him. Matt. 8:239 And Jesus said, For judgmentI have come into this world, that those who do not see may see, and that those who see may be madeblind. 12:39, 40; Mark 8:18

40 Then some of the Phariseeswho were with Him heard thesewords, and said to Him, Are weblind also? Rom. 2:19

41 Jesus said to them, If youwere blind, you would have no sin;but now you say, We see. Thereforeyour sin remains. 15:22, 24; 19:11

10 Most assuredly, I say to you,he who does not enter thesheepfold by the door, but climbs upsome other way, the same is a thief and a robber.

2 But he who enters by the dooris the shepherd of the sheep. v. 11

3 To him the doorkeeper opens,and the sheep hear his voice; andhe calls his own sheep by name andleads them out. v. 16; 20:16

4 And when he brings out hisown sheep, he goes before them;and the sheep follow him, for theyknow his voice.

5 Yet they will by no means fol-low a stranger, but will flee from

him, for they do not know the voiceof strangers. 2 Cor. 11:1315

6 Jesus used this illustration, but they did not understand the thingswhich He spoke to them.

7 Then Jesus said to them again,Most assuredly, I say to you, I am the door of the sheep. v. 1

8 All who ever came before Me aare thieves and robbers, but thesheep did not hear them.

9 I am the door. If anyone entersby Me, he will be saved, and will goin and out and find pasture. 14:6

10 The thief does not come ex-cept to steal, and to kill, and to de-stroy. I have come that they mayhave life, and that they may have itmore abundantly. 1:4; Col. 3:13

11 I am the good shepherd. Thegood shepherd gives His life for thesheep. vv. 2, 14; 3:16; Is. 40:11

12 But a hireling, he who is not the shepherd, one who does notown the sheep, sees the wolf coming

and leaves the sheep and flees; and the wolf catches the sheep and scat- ters them. Zech. 11:16, 17

13 The hireling flees because heis a hireling and does not care about the sheep.

14 I am the good shepherd; andI know My sheep, and am knownby My own. vv. 2, 11; 2 Tim. 2:19

15 As the Father knows Me, even

so I know the Father; and I lay downMy life for the sheep. 15:1316 And other sheep I have which

are not of this fold; them also I mustbring, and they will hear My voice;and there will be one flock and oneshepherd. Is. 42:6; Eph. 2:1318

17 Therefore My Father lovesMe, because I lay down My life thatI may take it again. 5:20; Heb. 2:9

18 No one takes it from Me, butI lay it down of Myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This command I havereceived from My Father. 2:19

22 Now itwas the Feast of Dedica- tion in Jerusalem, and it was winter.

23 And Jesus walked in the tem-ple, in Solomons porch. Acts 3:11

24 Then the Jews surroundedHim and said to Him, How long doYou keep us in doubt? If You are theChrist, tell us plainly.

25 Jesus answered them, I toldyou, and you do not believe. Theworks that I do in My Fathers name, they bear witness of Me. v. 38

26 But you do not believe, be-cause you are not of My sheep, as Isaid to you. a vv. 1416

27 My sheep hear My voice, andI know them, and they follow Me.

28 And I give them eternal life,

and they shall never perish; neithershall anyone snatch them out of Myhand. 3:15, 16; 1 John 2:25

29 My Father, who has giventhem to Me, is greater than all; andno one is able to snatch them out of My Fathers hand. 17:2, 6, 12

30 I and My Father are one. 14:931 Then the Jews took up stones

again to stone Him. 8:59

32 Jesus answered them, Manygood works I have shown you fromMy Father. For which of thoseworks do you stone Me?

33 The Jews answered Him, say-ing, For a good work we do notstone You, but for blasphemy, andbecause You, being a Man, makeYourself God. 5:18; Matt. 9:3

34 Jesus answered them, Is it notwritten in your law, I said, You are gods ?a Ps. 82:6

35 If He called them gods, towhom the word of God came (and the Scripture cannot be broken),

36 do you say of Him whom theFather sanctified and sent into theworld, You are blaspheming, be-cause I said, I am the Son of God?

37 If I do not do the works of MyFather, do not believe Me; v. 25

38 but if I do, though you do notbelieve Me, believe the works, thatyou may know and believe a that theFather is in Me, and I in Him.

39 Therefore they sought again toseize Him, but He escaped out of their hand. 7:30, 44; Luke 4:2830

40 And He went away again be-yond the Jordan to the place whereJohn was baptizing at first, and there He stayed. 1:28

41 Then many came to Him andsaid, John performed no sign, butall the things that John spoke about this Man were true. 1:29, 36

42 And many believed in Him there. 2:2325; 8:30; 11:45

11 Now a certain man was sick,Lazarus of Bethany, the townof Mary and her sister Martha. 12:1

2 It was that Mary who anointed the Lord with fragrant oil andwipedHis feet with her hair, whosebrother Lazarus was sick. 12:3

3 Therefore the sisters sent to

Him, saying, Lord, behold, hewhom You love is sick.4 When Jesus heard that, He

said, This sickness is not untodeath, but for the glory of God, that the Son of God may be glorified through it. vv. 11, 14

5 Now Jesus loved Martha andher sister and Lazarus.

6 So, when He heard that he was

sick, He stayed two more days in the place where He was. 10:407 Then after this He said to the

disciples, Let us go to Judeaagain.

8 The disciples said to Him,Rabbi, lately the Jews sought tostone You, and are You going thereagain? 8:59

9 Jesus answered, Are there not

twelve hours in the day? If anyonewalks in the day, he does not stum-ble, because he sees the light of thisworld. 9:4; 12:35; Is. 9:2

10 But if one walks in the night,he stumbles, because the light is notin him. 12:35; Eph. 5:13, 14

11 These things He said, and after

that He said to them, Our friendLazarus sleeps, but I go that I maywake him up. Matt. 9:24; Acts 7:60

12 Then His disciples said, Lord,if he sleeps he will get well.

13 However, Jesus spoke of hisdeath, but they thought that He wasspeaking about taking rest in sleep.

14 Then Jesus said to themplainly, Lazarus is dead. vv. 4, 11

15 And I am glad for your sakes that I was not there, that you maybelieve. Nevertheless let us go tohim.

16 Then Thomas, who is called the Twin, said to his fellowdisciples,Let us also go, that we may diewith Him. 14:5; 20:2429

17 So when Jesus came, He found that he had already been in the tomb four days.

18 Now Bethany was near Jerusa-lem, about two miles a away.

19 And many of the Jews had joined the women around Martha

and Mary, to comfort them concern-ing their brother.20 Then Martha, as soon as she

heard that Jesus was coming, wentand met Him, but Mary was sittingin the house.

21 Now Martha said to Jesus,Lord, if You had been here, mybrother would not have died.

22 But even now I know that

whatever You ask of God, God willgive You. v. 44; 9:3123 Jesus said to her, Your brother

will rise again.24 Martha said to Him, I know

that he will rise again in the resur-rection at the last day. 5:29; Dan. 12:2

25 Jesus said to her, I am the res-urrection and the life. He who be-lieves in Me, though he may die, heshall live. 5:21; 6:39, 40, 44

26 And whoever lives and be-lieves in Me shall never die. Do youbelieve this? 3:1416; 5:24

27 She said to Him, Yes, Lord, Ibelieve that You are the Christ, theSon of God, who is to come into theworld. 1:41, 49; 4:25, 26; 6:69

28 And when she had said these things, she went her way and se-cretly called Maryher sister, saying,

The Teacher has come and is call-ing for you.

29 As soon as she heard that, shearose quickly and came to Him.

30 Now Jesus had not yet comeinto the town, but was a in the placewhere Martha met Him.

31 Then the Jews who were withher in the house, and comfortingher, when they saw that Mary roseup quickly and went out, followedher, saying, She is going to the tomb to weep there. a vv. 19, 33

32 Then, when Mary came where

Jesus was, and saw Him, she felldown at His feet, saying to Him,Lord, if You had been here, mybrother would not have died. v. 21

33 Therefore, when Jesus saw herweeping, and the Jews who camewith her weeping, He groaned in thespirit and was troubled. Matt. 26:38

34 And He said, Where have youlaid him? They said to Him, Lord,

come and see.35 Jesus wept. Luke 19:4136 Then the Jews said, See how

He loved him! v. 537 And some of themsaid, Could

not this Man, who opened the eyesof the blind, also have kept this manfrom dying? 9:6, 7

38 Then Jesus, again groaning inHimself, came to the tomb. It was a

cave, and a stone lay against it. v. 3339 Jesus said, Take away thestone. Martha, the sister of himwho was dead, said to Him, Lord,by this time there is a stench, for hehas been dead four days.

40 Jesus said to her, Did I not say to you that if you would believe youwould see the glory of God? v. 26

41 Then they took away the stone

from the place where the dead manwas lying. a And Jesus lifted up Hiseyes and said, Father, I thank You that You have heard Me. Matt. 11:25

42 And I know that You alwayshear Me, but because of the people

who are standing by I said this, that they may believe that You sent Me.

43 Now when He had said these things, He cried with a loud voice,Lazarus, come forth! 5:28, 29

44 And he who had died came outbound hand and foot with grave-clothes, and his face was wrappedwith a cloth. Jesus said to them,Loose him, and let him go. 19:40

45 Then many of the Jews whohad come to Mary, and had seen the things Jesus did, believed in Him.

46 But some of them went away to the Pharisees and told them the things Jesus did. 5:15

47 Then the chief priests and thePharisees gathered a council andsaid, What shall we do? For thisMan works many signs. 3:2; Ps. 2:2

48 If we let Him alone like this,everyone will believe in Him, and the Romans will come and takeaway both our place and nation.

49 And one of them,Caiaphas,be-ing high priest that year, said to them, You know nothing at all,

50 nor do you consider that it isexpedient for us a that one manshould die for the people, and not that the whole nation should per-ish. 18:14

51 Now this he did not say on hisown authority; but being high priest that year he prophesied that Jesuswould die for the nation, Matt. 1:21

52 and not for that nation only,but also that He would gather to-gether in one the children of Godwho were scattered abroad. 10:16

53 Then, from that day on, theyplotted to put Him to death. Matt. 26:4

54 Therefore Jesus no longerwalked openly among the Jews, butwent from there into the countrynear the wilderness, to a city calledEphraim, and there remained withHis disciples. 4:1, 3; 7:1

55 And the Passover of the Jewswas near, and many went from thecountry up to Jerusalem before thePassover, to purify themselves.

56 Then they sought Jesus, andspoke among themselves as theystood in the temple, What do you

thinkthat He will not come to thefeast? 7:11

57 Now both the chief priests and the Pharisees had given a com-mand, that if anyone knew whereHe was, he should report it, that they might seize Him. Matt. 26:1416

12 Then, six days before thePassover, Jesus came to Beth-any, where Lazarus was who hadbeen dead, a whom He had raisedfrom the dead. 11:1, 43, 44

2 There they madeHim a supper;and Martha served, but Lazaruswasone of those whosat at the tablewith Him. Mark 14:3; Luke 10:3841

3 Then Mary took a pound of very costly oil of spikenard,anointed the feet of Jesus, andwiped His feet with her hair. And the house was filled with the fra-grance of the oil. 11:2; Matt. 26:7

4 But one of His disciples, JudasIscariot, Simons son, who wouldbetray Him, said, 13:26

5 Why was this fragrant oil notsold for three hundred denarii a andgiven to the poor?

6 This he said, not that he caredfor the poor, but because he was a thief, and had the money box; andhe used to take what was put in it.

7 But Jesus said, Let her alone;she has kept a this for the day of Myburial. 19:39, 40

8 For the poor you have withyou always, but Me you do not havealways. Mark 14:7

9 Now a great many of the Jewsknew that He was there; and theycame, not for Jesus sake only, but that they might also see Lazarus,whom He had raised from the dead.

10 But the chief priests plotted toput Lazarus to death also, Luke 16:31

11 because on account of himmany of the Jews went away andbelieved in Jesus. v. 18; 11:45

12 The next day a great multitude that had come to the feast, when they heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem, Matt. 21:49

11:50 aNU-Text reads you. 12:1 aNU-Text omits whohad been dead. 12:5 aAbout one years wages for aworker 12:7 aNU-Text reads that she may keep.

13 took branches of palm treesand went out to meet Him, and criedout: Ps. 118:26

Hosanna!Blessed is He who comes in

the name of the L ORD ! aThe King of Israel!

14 Then Jesus, when He hadfound a young donkey, sat on it; asit is written: Zech. 9:9

15 Fear not, daughter of Zion; Behold, your King is coming,Sitting on a donkeys colt. a

16 His disciples did not under-stand these things at first; but whenJesus was glorified, then they re-membered that these things werewritten about Him and that theyhad done these things to Him. 14:26

17 Therefore the people, whowere with Him when He called Laz-

arus out of his tomb and raised himfrom the dead, bore witness.18 For this reason the people also

met Him, because they heard thatHe had done this sign. v. 11

19 The Pharisees therefore saidamong themselves, You see thatyou are accomplishing nothing.Look, the world has gone afterHim! 11:53, 57

20 Now there were certainGreeksamong those who came up to wor-ship at the feast.

21 Then they came to Philip, whowas from Bethsaida of Galilee, andasked him, saying, Sir, we wish tosee Jesus. 1:43; 14:8

22 Philip came and told Andrew,and in turn Andrew and Philip toldJesus. 1:4042

23 But Jesus answered them, say-ing, The hour has come that theSon of Man should be glorified. 8:20

24 Most assuredly, I say to you,unless a grain of wheat falls into theground and dies, it remains alone;but if it dies, it produces muchgrain.

25 He who loves his life will loseit, and he who hates his life in thisworld will keep it for eternal life.

26 If anyone serves Me, let him

follow Me; and where I am, thereMy servant will be also. If anyoneserves Me, him My Father willhonor. Matt. 16:24

27 Now My soul is troubled, andwhat shall I say? Father, save Mefrom this hour? But for thispurposeI came to this hour. 11:33

28 Father, glorify Your name.Then a voice came from heaven,saying, I have both glorified it andwill glorify it again. Matt. 3:17

29 Therefore the people whostood by and heard it said that ithad thundered. Others said, An an-gel has spoken to Him.

30 Jesus answered and said, This voice did not come because of Me,but for your sake. 11:42

31 Now is the judgment of thisworld; now the ruler of this worldwill be cast out. 2 Cor. 4:4

32 And I, if I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all peoples toMyself. 3:14; 8:28; Rom. 5:18

33 This He said, signifying bywhat death He would die. 18:32

34 The people answered Him,We have heard from the law that the Christ remains forever; and howcan You say, The Son of Man mustbe lifted up ? Who is this Son of Man? v. 32; 3:14; 8:28

35 Then Jesus said to them, A little while longer the light is with you.Walk while you have the light, lestdarkness overtake you; he whowalks in darkness does not knowwhere he is going. 1 John 2:911

36 While you have the light, be-lieve in the light, that you may be-come sons of light. These thingsJesus spoke, and departed, and washidden from them. 8:59; Luke 16:8

37 But although He had done somany signs before them, they didnot believe in Him, 11:47

38 that the word of Isaiah theprophet might be fulfilled, which hespoke: Is. 53:1

1240J OHN 12:39

And to whom has the arm of the L ORD been revealed? a

39 Therefore they could not be-lieve, because Isaiah said again:

40 He has blinded their eyes and hardened their hearts,

Lest they should see with their eyes, Is. 6:10

Lest they should understand with their hearts and turn,

So that I should heal them. a

41 These things Isaiah said when a

he saw His glory and spoke of Him.42 Nevertheless even among the

rulersmany believed inHim,but be-cause of the Pharisees they did notconfess Him, lest they should be putout of the synagogue; 7:13; 9:22

43 for they loved thepraiseofmenmore than the praise of God. 5:41

44 Then Jesus cried out and said,He who believes in Me, believesnot in Me but in Him who sent Me.

45 And he who sees Me sees Himwho sent Me. 14:9

46 I have come as a light into theworld, that whoever believes in Meshould not abide in darkness. 8:12

47 And if anyone hears Mywords and does not believe, a I donot judge him; for I did not come to judge the world but to save theworld. 3:17

48 He who rejects Me, and doesnot receive My words, has thatwhich judges himthe word that Ihave spoken will judge him in thelast day. Luke 10:16

49 For I have not spoken on Myown authority; but the Father whosent Me gave Me a command, whatI should say and what I shouldspeak. 8:38; Deut. 18:18

50 And I know that His com-mand is everlasting life. Therefore,whatever I speak, just as the Fatherhas told Me, so I speak. 5:19; 8:28

13 Now before the Feast of thePassover, when Jesus knew that His hour had come that Heshould depart from thisworld to theFather, having loved His own who

were in the world, He loved them to the end. v. 23; 15:9; 17:1

2 And supper being ended, a thedevil having already put it into theheart of Judas Iscariot, Simons son, to betray Him, Luke 22:3

3 Jesus, knowing that the Fatherhad given all things into His hands,and that Hehad come fromGod andwas going to God, 5:2023; 17:2

4 rose fromsupper and laid asideHis garments, took a towel andgirded Himself. Luke 22:27

5 After that, He poured waterinto a basin and began to wash thedisciples feet, and to wipe themwith the towel with which He wasgirded.

6 Then He came to Simon Peter.And Peter said to Him, Lord, areYou washing my feet? Matt. 3:14

7 Jesus answered and said tohim, What I am doing you do notunderstand now, but you will knowafter this. v. 19; 12:16; 16:12

8 Peter said to Him, You shallnever wash my feet! Jesus an-swered him, If I do not wash you,you have no part with Me. 1 Cor. 6:11

9 Simon Peter said to Him,Lord, not my feet only, but also myhands and my head!

10 Jesus said to him, He who isbathed needs only to wash his feet,but is completely clean; and you are

clean, but not all of you. 15:311 For He knew who would betrayHim; therefore He said, You arenot all clean. vv. 2, 30

12 So when He had washed theirfeet, taken His garments, and satdown again, He said to them, Doyou know what I have done to you?

13 You call Me Teacher andLord, and you say well, for so I am.

14 If I then, your Lord andTeacher, have washed your feet, youalso ought to wash one anothersfeet.

7 If you had known Me, youwould have known My Father also;and from now on you know Himand have seen Him. 8:19

8 Philipsaid to Him, Lord, showus the Father, and it is sufficient forus.

9 Jesus said to him, Have I beenwith you so long, and yet you havenot known Me, Philip? He who hasseen Me has seen the Father; so howcan you say, Show us the Father?

10 Do you not believe that I amin the Father, and the Father in Me?The words that I speak to you I donot speak on My own authority; but the Father who dwells in Me does the works. vv. 11, 20; 5:19; 10:38

21 He who has My command-ments and keeps them, it is he who

loves Me. And he who loves Me willbe loved by My Father, and I willlove him and manifest Myself tohim. 1 John 2:5

22 Judas (not Iscariot) said toHim, Lord, how is it that You willmanifest Yourself to us, and not to the world?

23 Jesus answered and said tohim, If anyone loves Me, he willkeep My word; and My Father willlove him, and We will come to himand make Our home with him. v. 15

24 He who does not love Me doesnot keep My words; and the wordwhich you hear is not Mine but theFathers who sent Me. 5:19

25 These things I have spoken toyou while being present with you.

26 But the Helper, the HolySpirit, whom the Father will sendin My name, He will teach you all things, and bring to your remem-brance all things that I said to you.

5 I am the vine, you are thebranches. Hewho abides in Me, andI in him, bears much fruit; for with-out Me you can do nothing. v. 1

6 If anyone does not abide inMe, he is cast out as a branch andis withered; and they gather themand throw them into the fire, and they are burned. Matt. 3:10

7 If you abide in Me, and Mywords abide in you, you will a askwhat you desire, and it shallbe donefor you. 14:13; 16:23; 1 John 2:14

8 By this My Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit; so you willbe My disciples. 8:31; Matt. 5:16

9 As the Father loved Me, I also

11 These things I have spoken toyou, that My joy may remain in you,and that your joy may be full.

12 This is My commandment, that you love one another as I have

14 You are My friends if you dowhatever I command you. 14:15

15 No longer do I call you servants, for a servant does not knowwhat his master is doing; but I havecalled you friends, for all things thatI heard from My Father I have madeknown to you. 13:16

16 You did not choose Me, but Ichose you and appointed you thatyou should go and bear fruit, andthat your fruit should remain, thatwhatever you ask the Father in Myname He may give you. 6:70

17 These things I command you, that you love one another. v. 12

18 If the world hates you, you

19 If you were of the world, theworld would love its own. Yet be-cause you are not of the world, butI chose you out of the world, there-fore the world hates you. 17:14

10 of righteousness, because I go to My Father and you see Me nomore; 5:32; Acts 2:32

11 of judgment, because the

ruler of this world is judged. 12:3112 I still have many things to say to you, but you cannot bear themnow. Acts 4:33

13 However, when He, the Spiritof truth, has come, He will guideyou into all truth; for He will notspeak on His own authority, butwhatever He hears He will speak;and He will tell you things to come.

14 He will glorify Me, for He will take of what is Mine and declare it to you. 15:26

15 All things that the Father hasare Mine. Therefore I said that Hewill take of Mine and declare it toyou. a Matt. 11:27

16 A little while, and you will notsee Me; and again a little while, andyou will see Me, because I go to theFather. 7:33; 12:35; 13:3

17 Then some of His disciples saidamong themselves, What is this that He says to us, A little while,and you will not see Me; and againa little while, and you will see Me ;and, because I go to the Father ?

18 They said therefore, What is this that He says, A little while ? Wedo not know what He is saying.

19 Now Jesus knew that they de-

sired to ask Him, and He said to them, Are you inquiring amongyourselves about what I said, A little while, and you will not see Me;and again a little while, and you willsee Me?

20 Most assuredly, I say to you that you will weep and lament, but the world will rejoice; and you willbe sorrowful, but your sorrow willbe turned into joy. Luke 24:32, 41

21 A woman, when she is in la-bor, has sorrow because her hourhas come; but as soon as she hasgiven birth to the child, she nolonger remembers the anguish, for joy that a human being has beenborn into the world. Is. 13:8; 26:17

22 Therefore you now have sor-row; but I will see you again andyour heart will rejoice, and your joyno one will take from you. 1 Pet. 1:8

23 And in that day you will askMe nothing. Most assuredly, I say toyou, whatever you ask the Father inMy name He will give you. Matt. 7:724 Until now you have askednothing in My name. Ask, and youwill receive, that your joy may befull. 14:13, 14; 15:11; 17:13

25 These things I have spoken toyou in figurative language; but the time is coming when I will no longerspeak to you in figurative language,but I will tell you plainly about the

Father. 7:1326 In that day you will ask in Myname, and I do not say to you that Ishall pray the Father for you; 17:9

27 for the Father Himself lovesyou, because you have loved Me,and have believed that I came forthfrom God. 3:13; 14:21, 23

28 I came forth from the Fatherand have come into the world.

Again, I leave the world and go to the Father. vv. 5, 10, 17; 13:1, 329 His disciples said to Him, See,

now You are speaking plainly, andusing no figure of speech! v. 25

30 Now we are sure that Youknow all things, and have no need

that anyone should question You.By this we believe that You cameforth from God. 17:8; 21:17

31 Jesus answered them, Do younow believe?

32 Indeed the hour is coming,yes, has now come, that you will bescattered, each to his own, and willleave Me alone. And yet I am notalone, because the Father is withMe. 8:29; Matt. 26:31, 56

8 For I have given to them thewords which You have given Me;and they have received them, andhave known surely that I came forthfrom You; and they have believed that You sent Me. 8:42; Deut. 18:18

9 I pray for them. I do not prayfor the world but for those whomYou have given Me, for they areYours. 1 John 5:19

10 And all Mine are Yours, and

Yours are Mine, and I am glorifiedin them. 16:15

11 Now I am no longer in theworld, but these are in the world,and I come to You. Holy Father,keep through Your name thosewhom You havegiven Me, a that theymay be one as We are. 10:30; 13:1

12 While I was with them in theworld, a I kept them in Your name.Those whom You gave Me I havekept; b and none of them is lost ex-cept the son of perdition, that theScripture might be fulfilled. 6:70

13 But now I come to You, and these things I speak in the world, that they may have My joy fulfilledin themselves.

14 I have given them Your word;and the world has hated them be-cause they are not of the world, justas I am not of the world. 8:23; 15:19

15 I do not pray that You should take them out of the world, but thatYou should keep them from the evilone. 1 John 5:18

16 They are not of the world, justas I am not of the world. 12:35

17 Sanctify them by Your truth.Your word is truth. Eph. 5:26

18 As You sent Me into the world,I also have sent them into the world.

19 And for their sakes I sanctifyMyself, that they alsomay besancti-fied by the truth. Heb. 10:10

20 I do not pray for these alone,but also for those who will a believein Me through their word;

21 that they all may be one, asYou, Father, are in Me, and I in You; that they also may be one in Us, that the world may believe that You sentMe. 10:38; Gal. 3:28

22 And the glory which You gave

Me I have given them, that they maybe one just as We are one: 1:1423 I in them, and You in Me; that

they may be made perfect in one,and that the world may know that
