+Book 43 John
+
+001:001 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God,
+        and the Word was God.
+
+001:002 He was in the beginning with God.
+
+001:003 All things came into being through Him, and apart from Him
+        nothing that exists came into being.
+
+001:004 In Him was Life, and that Life was the Light of men.
+
+001:005 The Light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has
+        not overpowered it.
+
+001:006 There was a man sent from God, whose name was John.
+
+001:007 He came as a witness, in order that he might give testimony
+        concerning the Light--so that all might believe through him.
+
+001:008 He was not the Light, but he existed that he might give
+        testimony concerning the Light.
+
+001:009 The true Light was that which illumines every man by its coming
+        into the world.
+
+001:010 He was in the world, and the world came into existence through Him,
+        and the world did not recognize Him.
+
+001:011 He came to the things that were His own, and His own people
+        gave Him no welcome.
+
+001:012 But all who have received Him, to them--that is, to those who
+        trust in His name--He has given the privilege of becoming
+        children of God;
+
+001:013 who were begotten as such not by human descent, nor through
+        an impulse of their own nature, nor through the will of a
+        human father, but from God.
+
+001:014 And the Word came in the flesh, and lived for a time in our midst,
+        so that we saw His glory--the glory as of the Father's only Son,
+        sent from His presence.  He was full of grace and truth.
+
+001:015 John gave testimony concerning Him and cried aloud, saying,
+        "This is He of whom I said, `He who is coming after me has
+        been put before me,' for He was before me."
+
+001:016 For He it is from whose fulness we have all received,
+        and grace upon grace.
+
+001:017 For the Law was given through Moses; grace and truth came
+        through Jesus Christ.
+
+001:018 No human eye has ever seen God:  the only Son, who is in
+        the Father's bosom--He has made Him known.
+
+001:019 This also is John's testimony, when the Jews sent to him
+        a deputation of Priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask
+        him who he was.
+
+001:020 He avowed--he did not conceal the truth, but avowed, "I am
+        not the Christ."
+
+001:021 "What then?" they inquired; "are you Elijah?"  "I am not," he said.
+        "Are you the Prophet?"  "No," he answered.
+
+001:022 So they pressed the question.  "Who are you?"
+        they said--"that we may take an answer to those who sent us.
+        What account do you give of yourself?"
+
+001:023 "I am the voice," he replied, "of one crying aloud,
+        `Make straight the Lord's way in the Desert,' fulfilling the words
+        of the Prophet Isaiah."
+
+001:024 They were Pharisees who had been sent.
+
+001:025 Again they questioned him.  "Why then do you baptize," they said,
+        "if you are neither the Christ nor Elijah nor the Prophet?"
+
+001:026 "I baptize in water only," John answered, "but in your midst
+        stands One whom you do not know--
+
+001:027 He who is to come after me, and whose sandal-strap I am not
+        worthy to unfasten."
+
+001:028 This conversation took place at Bethany beyond the Jordan,
+        where John was baptizing.
+
+001:029 The next day John saw Jesus coming towards him and exclaimed,
+        "Look, that is the Lamb of God who is to take away the sin
+        of the world!
+
+001:030 This is He about whom I said, `After me is to come One who has
+        been put before me, because He was before me.'
+
+001:031 I did not yet know Him; but that He may be openly shown to Israel
+        is the reason why I have come baptizing in water."
+
+001:032 John also gave testimony by stating:  "I have seen the Spirit
+        coming down like a dove out of Heaven; and it remained upon Him.
+
+001:033 I did not yet know Him, but He who sent me to baptize in water
+        said to me, "`The One on whom you see the Spirit coming down,
+        and remaining, He it is who baptizes in the Holy Spirit.'
+
+001:034 "This I have seen, and I have become a witness that He is
+        the Son of God."
+
+001:035 Again the next day John was standing with two of his disciples,
+
+001:036 when he saw Jesus passing by, and said, "Look! that is
+        the Lamb of God!"
+
+001:037 The two disciples heard his exclamation, and they followed Jesus.
+
+001:038 Then Jesus turned round, and seeing them following He asked them,
+        "What is your wish?"  "Rabbi," they replied--`Rabbi'
+        means `Teacher'--"where are you staying?"
+
+001:039 "Come and you shall see," He said.  So they went and saw where He
+        was staying, and they remained and spent that day with Him.
+        It was then about ten o'clock in the morning.
+
+001:040 Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, was one of the two who heard
+        John's exclamation and followed Jesus.
+
+001:041 He first found his own brother Simon, and said to him,
+        "We have found the Messiah!"--that is to say, the Anointed One.
+
+001:042 He brought him to Jesus.  Jesus looked at him and said,
+        "You are Simon, son of John:  you shall be called Cephas"--
+        that is to say, Peter (or `Rock').
+
+001:043 The next day, having decided to leave Bethany and go
+        into Galilee, Jesus found Philip, and invited him to follow Him.
+
+001:044 (Now Philip came from Bethsaida, the same town as Andrew and Peter.)
+
+001:045 Then Philip found Nathanael, and said to him, "We have
+        found him about whom Moses in the Law wrote, as well as
+        the Prophets--Jesus, the son of Joseph, a man of Nazareth."
+
+001:046 "Can anything good come out of Nazareth?" replied Nathanael.
+        "Come and see," said Philip.
+
+001:047 Jesus saw Nathanael approaching, and said of him, "Look! here
+        is a true Israelite, in whom there is no deceitfulness!"
+
+001:048 "How do you know me?"  Nathanael asked.  "Before Philip called you,"
+        said Jesus, "when you were under the fig-tree I saw you."
+
+001:049 "Rabbi," cried Nathanael, "you are the Son of God,
+        you are Israel's King!"
+
+001:050 "Because I said to you, `I saw you under the fig-tree,'"
+        replied Jesus, "do you believe?  You shall see greater
+        things than that."
+
+001:051 "I tell you all in most solemn truth," He added, "that you
+        shall see Heaven opened wide, and God's angels going up,
+        and coming down to the Son of Man."
+
+002:001 Two days later there was a wedding at Cana in Galilee,
+        and the mother of Jesus was there,
+
+002:002 and Jesus also was invited and His disciples.
+
+002:003 Now the wine ran short; whereupon the mother of Jesus said
+        to Him, "They have no wine."
+
+002:004 "Leave the matter in my hands," He replied; "the time for me
+        to act has not yet come."
+
+002:005 His mother said to the attendants, "Whatever he tells you
+        to do, do it."
+
+002:006 Now there were six stone jars standing there (in accordance
+        with the Jewish regulations for purification), each large
+        enough to hold twenty gallons or more.
+
+002:007 Jesus said to the attendants, "Fill the jars with water."
+        And they filled them to the brim.
+
+002:008 Then He said, "Now, take some out, and carry it to the President
+        of the feast."
+
+002:009 So they carried some to him.  And no sooner had the President
+        tasted the water now turned into wine, than--not knowing where it
+        came from, though the attendants who had drawn the water knew--
+        he called to the bridegroom
+
+002:010 and said to him, "It is usual to put on the good wine first,
+        and when people have drunk freely, then that which is inferior.
+        But you have kept the good wine till now."
+
+002:011 This, the first of His miracles, Jesus performed at Cana
+        in Galilee, and thus displayed His glorious power; and His
+        disciples believed in Him.
+
+002:012 Afterwards He went down to Capernaum--He, and His mother,
+        and His brothers, and His disciples; and they made a
+        short stay there.
+
+002:013 But the Jewish Passover was approaching, and for this Jesus
+        went up to Jerusalem.
+
+002:014 And He found in the Temple the dealers in cattle and sheep
+        and in pigeons, and the money-changers sitting there.
+
+002:015 So He plaited a whip of rushes, and drove all--both sheep
+        and bullocks--out of the Temple.  The small coin of the brokers
+        He upset on the ground and overturned their tables.
+
+002:016 And to the pigeon-dealers He said, "Take these things away.
+        Do not turn my Father's house into a market."
+
+002:017 This recalled to His disciples the words of Scripture, "My zeal
+        for Thy House will consume me."
+
+002:018 So the Jews asked Him, "What proof of your authority do you
+        exhibit to us, seeing that you do these things?"
+
+002:019 "Demolish this Sanctuary," said Jesus, "and in three days I
+        will rebuild it."
+
+002:020 "It has taken forty-six years," replied the Jews, "to build
+        this Sanctuary, and will you rebuild it in three days?"
+
+002:021 But He was speaking of the Sanctuary of His body.
+
+002:022 When however He had risen from among the dead, His disciples
+        recollected that He had said this; and they believed
+        the Scripture and the teaching which Jesus had given them.
+
+002:023 Now when He was in Jerusalem, at the Festival of the Passover,
+        many became believers in Him through watching the miracles
+        He performed.
+
+002:024 But for His part, Jesus did not trust Himself to them,
+        because He knew them all,
+
+002:025 and did not need any one's testimony concerning a man,
+        for He of Himself knew what was in the man.
+
+003:001 Now there was one of the Pharisees whose name was Nicodemus--
+        a ruler among the Jews.
+
+003:002 He came to Jesus by night and said, "Rabbi, we know that you
+        are a teacher from God; for no one can do these miracles
+        which you are doing, unless God is with him.
+
+003:003 "In most solemn truth I tell you," answered Jesus, "that unless
+        a man is born anew he cannot see the Kingdom of God."
+
+003:004 "How is it possible," Nicodemus asked, "for a man to be born
+        when he is old?  Can he a second time enter his mother's womb
+        and be born?"
+
+003:005 "In most solemn truth I tell you," replied Jesus, "that unless
+        a man is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter
+        the Kingdom of God.
+
+003:006 Whatever has been born of the flesh is flesh, and whatever
+        has been born of the Spirit is spirit.
+
+003:007 Do not be astonished at my telling you, `You must all
+        be born anew.'
+
+003:008 The wind blows where it chooses, and you hear its sound,
+        but you do not know where it comes from or where it is going.
+        So is it with every one who has been born of the Spirit."
+
+003:009 "How is all this possible?" asked Nicodemus.
+
+003:010 "Are you," replied Jesus, "`the Teacher of Israel,' and yet
+        do you not understand these things?
+
+003:011 In most solemn truth I tell you that we speak what we know,
+        and give testimony of that of which we were eye-witnesses,
+        and yet you all reject our testimony.
+
+003:012 If I have told you earthly things and none of you believe me,
+        how will you believe me if I tell you of things in Heaven?
+
+003:013 There is no one who has gone up to Heaven, but there is One
+        who has come down from Heaven, namely the Son of Man whose
+        home is in Heaven.
+
+003:014 And just as Moses lifted high the serpent in the Desert,
+        so must the Son of Man be lifted up,
+
+003:015 in order that every one who trusts in Him may have the Life
+        of the Ages."
+
+003:016 For so greatly did God love the world that He gave His only Son,
+        that every one who trusts in Him may not perish but may have
+        the Life of Ages.
+
+003:017 For God did not send His Son into the world to judge the world,
+        but that the world might be saved through Him.
+
+003:018 He who trusts in Him does not come up for judgement.
+        He who does not trust has already received sentence, because he has
+        not his trust resting on the name of God's only Son.
+
+003:019 And this is the test by which men are judged--the Light has
+        come into the world, and men loved the darkness more than they
+        loved the Light, because their deeds were wicked.
+
+003:020 For every wrongdoer hates the light, and does not come to the light,
+        for fear his actions should be exposed and condemned.
+
+003:021 But he who does what is honest and right comes to the light,
+        in order that his actions may be plainly shown to have been
+        done in God.
+
+003:022 After this Jesus and His disciples went into Judaea;
+        and there He made a stay in company with them and baptized.
+
+003:023 And John too was baptizing at Aenon, near Salim, because there were
+        many pools of water there; and people came and received baptism.
+
+003:024 (For John was not yet in prison.)
+
+003:025 As the result, a discussion having arisen on the part of John's
+        disciples with a Jew about purification,
+
+003:026 they came to John and reported to him, "Rabbi, he who was
+        with you on the other side of the Jordan and to whom you
+        bore testimony is now baptizing, and great numbers of people
+        are resorting to him."
+
+003:027 "A man cannot obtain anything," replied John, "unless it has
+        been granted to him from Heaven.
+
+003:028 You yourselves can bear witness to my having said, `I am not
+        the Christ,' but `I am His appointed forerunner.'
+
+003:029 He who has the bride is the bridegroom; and the bridegroom's
+        friend who stands by his side and listens to him,
+        rejoices heartily on account of the bridegroom's happiness.
+        Therefore this joy of mine is now complete.
+
+003:030 He must grow greater, but I must grow less.
+
+003:031 He who comes from above is above all.  He whose origin
+        is from the earth is not only himself from the earth,
+        his teaching also is from the earth.  He who comes from Heaven
+        is above all.
+
+003:032 What He has seen and heard, to that He bears witness;
+        but His testimony no one receives.
+
+003:033 Any man who has received His testimony has solemnly declared
+        that God is true.
+
+003:034 For He whom God has sent speaks God's words; for God does
+        not give the Spirit with limitations."
+
+003:035 The Father loves the Son and has entrusted everything
+        to His hands.
+
+003:036 He who believes in the Son has the Life of the Ages;
+        he who disobeys the Son will not enter into Life, but God's
+        anger remains upon him.
+
+004:001 Now as soon as the Master was aware that the Pharisees
+        had heard it said, "Jesus is gaining and baptizing more
+        disciples than John"--
+
+004:002 though Jesus Himself did not baptize them, but His disciples did--
+
+004:003 He left Judaea and returned to Galilee.
+
+004:004 His road lay through Samaria,
+
+004:005 and so He came to Sychar, a town in Samaria near the piece
+        of land that Jacob gave to his son Joseph.
+
+004:006 Jacob's Well was there:  and accordingly Jesus,
+        tired out with His journey, sat down by the well to rest.
+        It was about six o'clock in the evening.
+
+004:007 Presently there came a woman of Samaria to draw water.
+        Jesus asked her to give Him some water;
+
+004:008 for His disciples were gone to the town to buy provisions.
+
+004:009 "How is it," replied the woman, "that a Jew like you
+        asks me, who am a woman and a Samaritan, for water?"
+        (For Jews have no dealings with Samaritans.)
+
+004:010 "If you had known God's free gift," replied Jesus, "and who it
+        is that said to you, `Give me some water,' you would have
+        asked Him, and He would have given you living water."
+
+004:011 "Sir," she said, "you have nothing to draw with, and the well
+        is deep; so where can you get the living water from?
+
+004:012 Are you greater than our forefather Jacob, who gave us the well,
+        and himself drank from it, as did also his sons and his cattle?"
+
+004:013 "Every one," replied Jesus, "who drinks any of this water
+        will be thirsty again;
+
+004:014 but whoever drinks any of the water that I shall give him
+        will never, never thirst.  But the water that I shall give
+        him will become a fountain within him of water springing up
+        for the Life of the Ages."
+
+004:015 "Sir," said the woman, "give me that water, that I may never
+        be thirsty, nor continually come all the way here to draw
+        from the well."
+
+004:016 "Go and call your husband," said Jesus; "and come back."
+
+004:017 "I have no husband," she replied.  "You rightly say that you
+        have no husband," said Jesus;
+
+004:018 "for you have had five husbands, and the man you have at
+        present is not your husband.  You have spoken the truth
+        in saying that."
+
+004:019 "Sir," replied the woman, "I see that you are a Prophet.
+
+004:020 Our forefathers worshipped on this mountain, but you Jews say
+        that the place where people must worship is in Jerusalem."
+
+004:021 "Believe me," said Jesus, "the time is coming when you will
+        worship the Father neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem.
+
+004:022 You worship One of whom you know nothing.  We worship One whom
+        we know; for salvation comes from the Jews.
+
+004:023 But a time is coming--nay, has already come--when the true
+        worshippers will worship the Father with true spiritual worship;
+        for indeed the Father desires such worshippers.
+
+004:024 God is Spirit; and those who worship Him must bring Him
+        true spiritual worship."
+
+004:025 "I know," replied the woman, "that Messiah is coming--`the Christ,'
+        as He is called.  When He has come, He will tell us everything."
+
+004:026 "I am He," said Jesus--"I who am now talking to you."
+
+004:027 Just then His disciples came, and were surprised to find Him
+        talking with a woman.  Yet not one of them asked Him, "What is
+        your wish?" or "Why are you talking with her?"
+
+004:028 The woman however, leaving her pitcher, went away to the town,
+        and called the people.
+
+004:029 "Come," she said, "and see a man who has told me everything
+        I have ever done.  Can this be the Christ, do you think?"
+
+004:030 They left the town and set out to go to Him.
+
+004:031 Meanwhile the disciples were urging Jesus.  "Rabbi," they said,
+        "eat something."
+
+004:032 "I have food to eat," He replied, "of which you do not know."
+
+004:033 So the disciples began questioning one another.  "Can it be,"
+        they said, "that some one has brought Him something to eat?"
+
+004:034 "My food," said Jesus, "is to be obedient to Him who sent me,
+        and fully to accomplish His work.
+
+004:035 Do you not say, `It wants four months yet to the harvest'?
+        But look round, I tell you, and observe these plains--
+        they are already ripe for the sickle.
+
+004:036 The reaper gets pay and gathers in a crop in preparation
+        for the Life of the Ages, that so the sower and the reapers
+        may rejoice together.
+
+004:037 For it is in this that you see the real meaning of the saying,
+        `The sower is one person, and the reaper is another.'
+
+004:038 I sent you to reap a harvest which is not the result of your
+        own labours.  Others have laboured, and you are getting
+        benefit from their labours."
+
+004:039 Of the Samaritan population of that town a good many believed
+        in Him because of the woman's statement when she declared,
+        "He has told me all that I have ever done."
+
+004:040 When however the Samaritans came to Him, they asked Him on
+        all sides to stay with them; and He stayed there two days.
+
+004:041 Then a far larger number of people believed because of
+        His own words,
+
+004:042 and they said to the woman, "We no longer believe in Him simply
+        because of your statements; for we have now heard for ourselves,
+        and we know that this man really is the Saviour of the world."
+
+004:043 After the two days He departed, and went into Galilee;
+
+004:044 though Jesus Himself declared that a Prophet has no honour
+        in his own country.
+
+004:045 When however He reached Galilee, the Galilaeans welcomed
+        Him eagerly, having been eye-witnesses of all that He had
+        done in Jerusalem at the Festival; for they also had been
+        to the Festival.
+
+004:046 So He came once more to Cana in Galilee, where He had made
+        the water into wine.  Now there was a certain officer
+        of the King's court whose son was ill at Capernaum.
+
+004:047 Having heard that Jesus had come from Judaea to Galilee,
+        he came to Him and begged Him to go down and cure his son;
+        for he was at the point of death.
+
+004:048 "Unless you and others see miracles and marvels," said Jesus,
+        "nothing will induce you to believe."
+
+004:049 "Sir," pleaded the officer, "come down before my child dies."
+
+004:050 "You may return home," replied Jesus; "your son has recovered."
+        He believed the words of Jesus, and started back home;
+
+004:051 and he was already on his way down when his servants met him
+        and told him that his son was alive and well.
+
+004:052 So he inquired of them at what hour he had shown improvement.
+        "Yesterday, about seven o'clock," they replied,
+        "the fever left him."
+
+004:053 Then the father recollected that that was the time at
+        which Jesus had said to him, "Your son has recovered,"
+        and he and his whole household became believers.
+
+004:054 This is the second miracle that Jesus performed, after coming
+        from Judaea into Galilee.
+
+005:001 After this there was a Festival of the Jews, and Jesus went
+        up to Jerusalem.
+
+005:002 Now there is in Jerusalem near the Sheep Gate a pool,
+        called in Hebrew `Bethesda.' It has five arcades.
+
+005:003 In these there used to lie a great number of sick persons,
+        and of people who were blind or lame or paralyzed.
+
+005:004 []
+
+005:005 And there was one man there who had been an invalid
+        for thirty-eight years.
+
+005:006 Jesus saw him lying there, and knowing that he had been a long
+        time in that condition, He asked him, "Do you wish to have
+        health and strength?"
+
+005:007 "Sir," replied the sufferer, "I have no one to put me into
+        the pool when the water is moved; but while I am coming
+        some one else steps down before me."
+
+005:008 "Rise," said Jesus, "take up your mat and walk."
+
+005:009 Instantly the man was restored to perfect health, and he took
+        up his mat and began to walk.
+
+005:010 That day was a Sabbath.  So the Jews said to the man who had
+        been cured, "It is the Sabbath:  you must not carry your mat."
+
+005:011 "He who cured me," he replied, "said to me, `Take up your
+        mat and walk.'"
+
+005:012 "Who is it," they asked, "that said to you, `Take up your
+        mat and walk'?"
+
+005:013 But the man who had been cured did not know who it was;
+        for Jesus had passed out unnoticed, there being a crowd
+        in the place.
+
+005:014 Afterwards Jesus found him in the Temple and said to him,
+        "You are now restored to health.  Do not sin any more,
+        or a worse thing may befall you."
+
+005:015 The man went and told the Jews that it was Jesus who had restored
+        him to health;
+
+005:016 and on this account the Jews began to persecute Jesus--
+        because He did these things on the Sabbath.
+
+005:017 His reply to their accusation was, "My Father works unceasingly,
+        and so do I."
+
+005:018 On this account then the Jews were all the more eager to put
+        Him to death--because He not only broke the Sabbath,
+        but also spoke of God as being in a special sense His Father,
+        thus putting Himself on a level with God.
+
+005:019 "In most solemn truth I tell you," replied Jesus, "that the Son
+        can do nothing of Himself--He can only do what He sees
+        the Father doing; for whatever He does, that the Son does
+        in like manner.
+
+005:020 For the Father loves the Son and reveals to Him all that He Himself
+        is doing.  And greater deeds than these will He reveal to Him,
+        in order that you may wonder.
+
+005:021 For just as the Father awakens the dead and gives them life,
+        so the Son also gives life to whom He wills.
+
+005:022 The Father indeed does not judge any one, but He has entrusted
+        all judgement to the Son,
+
+005:023 that all may honour the Son even as they honour the Father.
+        The man who withholds honour from the Son withholds honour
+        from the Father who sent Him.
+
+005:024 "In most solemn truth I tell you that he who listens to my
+        teaching and believes Him who sent me, has the Life of the Ages,
+        and does not come under judgement, but has passed over out
+        of death into Life.
+
+005:025 "In most solemn truth I tell you that a time is coming--
+        nay, has already come--when the dead will hear the voice
+        of the Son of God, and those who hear it will live.
+
+005:026 For just as the Father has life in Himself, so He has also given
+        to the Son to have life in Himself.
+
+005:027 And He has conferred on Him authority to act as Judge,
+        because He is the Son of Man.
+
+005:028 Wonder not at this.  For a time is coming when all who are
+        in the graves will hear His voice and will come forth--
+
+005:029 they who have done what is right to the resurrection of Life,
+        and they whose actions have been evil to the resurrection
+        of judgement.
+
+005:030 "I can of my own self do nothing.  As I am bidden, so I judge;
+        and mine is a just judgement, because it is not my own will
+        that guides me, but the will of Him who sent me.
+
+005:031 "If I give testimony concerning myself, my testimony
+        cannot be accepted.
+
+005:032 There is Another who gives testimony concerning me, and I know
+        that the testimony is true which He offers concerning me.
+
+005:033 "You sent to John, and he both was and still is a witness
+        to the truth.
+
+005:034 But the testimony on my behalf which I accept is not from man;
+        though I say all this in order that you may be saved.
+
+005:035 He was the lamp that burned and shone, and for a time you
+        were willing to be gladdened by his light.
+
+005:036 "But the testimony which I have is weightier than that of John;
+        for the work the Father has assigned to me for me to
+        bring it to completion--the very work which I am doing--
+        affords testimony concerning me that the Father has sent me.
+
+005:037 And the Father who sent me, *He* has given testimony concerning me.
+        None of you have ever either heard His voice or seen what
+        He is like.
+
+005:038 Nor have you His word dwelling within you, for you refuse
+        to believe Him whom *He* has sent.
+
+005:039 "You search the Scriptures, because you suppose that in them
+        you will find the Life of the Ages; and it is those Scriptures
+        that yield testimony concerning me;
+
+005:040 and yet you are unwilling to come to me that you may have Life.
+
+005:041 "I do not accept glory from man,
+
+005:042 but I know you well, and I know that in your hearts you do
+        not really love God.
+
+005:043 I have come as my Father's representative, and you do not
+        receive me.  If some one else comes representing only himself,
+        him you will receive.
+
+005:044 How is it possible for you to believe, while you receive glory
+        from one another and have no desire for the glory that comes
+        from the only God?
+
+005:045 "Do not suppose that I will accuse you to the Father.
+        There is one who accuses you, namely Moses, on whom
+        your hope rests.
+
+005:046 For if you believe Moses, you would believe me;
+        for he wrote about me.
+
+005:047 But if you disbelieve his writings, how are you to believe my words?"
+
+006:001 After this Jesus went away across the Lake of Galilee (that is,
+        the Lake of Tiberias).
+
+006:002 A vast multitude followed Him, because they witnessed the miracles
+        on the sick which He was constantly performing.
+
+006:003 Then Jesus went up the hill, and sat there with His disciples.
+
+006:004 The Jewish Festival, the Passover, was at hand.
+
+006:005 And when He looked round and saw an immense crowd coming
+        towards Him, He said to Philip, "Where shall we buy bread
+        for all these people to eat?"
+
+006:006 He said this to put Philip to the test, for He Himself knew
+        what He was going to do.
+
+006:007 "Seven pounds' worth of bread," replied Philip, "is not enough
+        for them all to get even a scanty meal."
+
+006:008 One of His disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter's brother,
+        said to Him,
+
+006:009 "There is a boy here with five barley loaves and a couple of fish:
+        but what is that among so many?"
+
+006:010 "Make the people sit down," said Jesus.  The ground was
+        covered with thick grass; so they sat down, the adult men
+        numbering about 5,000.
+
+006:011 Then Jesus took the loaves, and after giving thanks He
+        distributed them to those who were resting on the ground;
+        and also the fish in like manner--as much as they desired.
+
+006:012 When all were fully satisfied, He said to His disciples,
+        "Gather up the broken portions that remain over, so that
+        nothing be lost."
+
+006:013 Accordingly they gathered them up; and with the fragments
+        of the five barley loaves--the broken portions that remained
+        over after they had done eating--they filled twelve baskets.
+
+006:014 Thereupon the people, having seen the miracle He had performed,
+        said, "This is indeed the Prophet who was to come into the world."
+
+006:015 Perceiving, however, that they were about to come and carry
+        Him off by force to make Him a king, Jesus withdrew again up
+        the hill alone by Himself.
+
+006:016 When evening came on, His disciples went down to the Lake.
+
+006:017 There they got on board a boat, and pushed off to cross
+        the Lake to Capernaum.  By this time it had become dark,
+        and Jesus had not yet joined them.
+
+006:018 The Lake also was getting rough, because a strong wind was blowing.
+
+006:019 When, however, they had rowed three or four miles, they saw
+        Jesus walking on the water and coming near the boat.
+
+006:020 They were terrified; but He called to them.  "It is I," He said,
+        "do not be afraid."
+
+006:021 Then they were willing to take Him on board; and in a moment
+        the boat reached the shore at the point to which they were going.
+
+006:022 Next morning the crowd who were still standing about on
+        the other side of the Lake found that there had been but one
+        small boat there, and they had seen that Jesus did not go
+        on board with His disciples, but that His disciples went
+        away without Him.
+
+006:023 Yet a number of small boats came from Tiberias to the neighbourhood
+        of the place where they had eaten the bread after the Lord
+        had given thanks.
+
+006:024 When however the crowd saw that neither Jesus nor His disciples
+        were there, they themselves also took boats and came to Capernaum
+        to look for Jesus.
+
+006:025 So when they had crossed the Lake and had found Him,
+        they asked Him, "Rabbi, when did you come here?"
+
+006:026 "In most solemn truth I tell you," replied Jesus, "that you
+        are searching for me not because you have seen miracles,
+        but because you ate the loaves and had a hearty meal.
+
+006:027 Bestow your pains not on the food which perishes,
+        but on the food that remains unto the Life of the Ages--
+        that food which will be the Son of Man's gift to you;
+        for on Him the Father, God, has set His seal."
+
+006:028 "What are we to do," they asked, "in order to carry out the things
+        that God requires?"
+
+006:029 "This," replied Jesus, "is above all the thing that God requires--
+        that you should be believers in Him whom He has sent."
+
+006:030 "What miracle then," they asked, "do you perform for us to see
+        and become believers in you?  What do you *do*?
+
+006:031 Our forefathers ate the manna in the Desert, as it is written,
+        `He gave them bread out of Heaven to eat'."
+
+006:032 "In most solemn truth I tell you," replied Jesus, "that Moses
+        did not give you the bread out of Heaven, but my Father
+        is giving you the bread--the true bread--out of Heaven.
+
+006:033 For God's bread is that which comes down out of Heaven and gives
+        Life to the world."
+
+006:034 "Sir," they said, "always give us that bread."
+
+006:035 "I am the bread of Life," replied Jesus; "he who comes to me shall
+        never hunger, and he who believes in me shall never, never thirst.
+
+006:036 But it is as I have said to you:  you have seen me and yet
+        you do not believe.
+
+006:037 Every one whom the Father gives me will come to me, and him
+        who comes to me I will never on any account drive away.
+
+006:038 For I have left Heaven and have come down to earth not to seek
+        my own pleasure, but to do the will of Him who sent me.
+
+006:039 And this is the will of Him who sent me, that of all that He
+        has given me I should lose nothing, but should raise it
+        to life on the last day.
+
+006:040 For this is my Father's will, that every one who fixes his gaze
+        on the Son of God and believes in Him should have the Life
+        of the Ages, and I will raise him to life on the last day."
+
+006:041 Now the Jews began to find fault about Him because of His
+        claiming to be the bread which came down out of Heaven.
+
+006:042 They kept asking, "Is not this man Joseph's son?
+        Is he not Jesus, whose father and mother we know?  What does
+        he mean by now saying, `I have come down out of Heaven'?"
+
+006:043 "Do not thus find fault among yourselves," replied Jesus;
+
+006:044 "no one can come to me unless the Father who sent me draws him;
+        then I will raise him to life on the last day.
+
+006:045 It stands written in the Prophets, `And they shall all of them
+        be taught by God'.  Every one who listens to the Father
+        and learns from Him comes to me.
+
+006:046 No one has ever seen the Father--except Him who is from God.
+        He has seen the Father.
+
+006:047 "In most solemn truth I tell you that he who believes has
+        the Life of the Ages.
+
+006:048 I am the bread of Life.
+
+006:049 Your forefathers ate the manna in the Desert, and they died.
+
+006:050 Here is the bread that comes down out of Heaven that a man
+        may eat it and not die.
+
+006:051 I am the living bread come down out of Heaven.
+        If a man eats this bread, he shall live for ever.
+        Moreover the bread which I will give is my flesh given
+        for the life of the world."
+
+006:052 This led to an angry debate among the Jews.  "How can this man,"
+        they argued, "give us his flesh to eat?"
+
+006:053 "In most solemn truth I tell you," said Jesus, "that unless
+        you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink His blood,
+        you have no Life in you.
+
+006:054 He who eats my flesh and drinks my blood has the Life of the Ages,
+        and I will raise him up on the last day.
+
+006:055 For my flesh is true food, and my blood is true drink.
+
+006:056 He who eats my flesh and drinks my blood remains in union with me,
+        and I remain in union with him.
+
+006:057 As the ever-living Father has sent me, and I live because of
+        the Father, so also he who eats me will live because of me.
+
+006:058 This is the bread which came down out of Heaven; it is unlike
+        that which your forefathers ate--for they ate and yet died.
+        He who eats this bread shall live for ever."
+
+006:059 Jesus said all this in the synagogue while teaching at Capernaum.
+
+006:060 Many therefore of His disciples, when they heard it, said,
+        "This is hard to accept.  Who can listen to such teaching?"
+
+006:061 But, knowing in Himself that His disciples were dissatisfied
+        about it, Jesus asked them,
+
+006:062 "Does this seem incredible to you?  What then if you were to see
+        the Son of Man ascending again where He was before?
+
+006:063 It is the spirit which gives Life.  The flesh confers no
+        benefit whatever.  The words I have spoken to you are spirit
+        and are Life.
+
+006:064 But there are some of you who do not believe."  For Jesus
+        knew from the beginning who those were that did not believe,
+        and who it was that would betray Him.
+
+006:065 So He added, "That is why I told you that no one can come
+        to me unless it be granted him by the Father."
+
+006:066 Thereupon many of His disciples left Him and went away,
+        and no longer associated with Him.
+
+006:067 Jesus therefore appealed to the Twelve.  "Will you go also?"
+        He asked.
+
+006:068 "Master," replied Simon Peter, "to whom shall we go?
+        Your teachings tell us of the Life of the Ages.
+
+006:069 And we have come to believe and know that *you* are indeed
+        the Holy One of God."
+
+006:070 "Did not I choose you--the Twelve?" said Jesus, "and even of you
+        one is a devil."
+
+006:071 He alluded to Judas, the son of Simon the Iscariot.
+        For he it was who, though one of the Twelve, was afterwards
+        to betray Him.
+
+007:001 After this Jesus moved from place to place in Galilee.
+        He would not go about in Judaea, because the Jews were seeking
+        an opportunity to kill Him.
+
+007:002 But the Jewish Festival of the Tent-Pitching was approaching.
+
+007:003 So His brothers said to Him, "Leave these parts and go into Judaea,
+        that not only we but your disciples also may witness the miracles
+        which you perform.
+
+007:004 For no one acts in secret, desiring all the while to be
+        himself known publicly.  Since you are doing these things,
+        show yourself openly to the world."
+
+007:005 For even His brothers were not believers in Him.
+
+007:006 "My time," replied Jesus, "has not yet come, but for you any
+        time is suitable.
+
+007:007 It is impossible for the world to hate you; but me it does hate,
+        because I give testimony concerning it that its conduct is evil.
+
+007:008 As for you, go up to the Festival.  I do not now go up
+        to this Festival, because my time is not yet fully come."
+
+007:009 Such was His answer, and He remained in Galilee.
+
+007:010 When however His brothers had gone up to the Festival,
+        then He also went up, not openly, but as it were privately.
+
+007:011 Meanwhile the Jews at the Festival were looking for Him
+        and were inquiring, "Where is he?"
+
+007:012 Among the mass of the people there was much muttered debate
+        about Him.  Some said, "He is a good man."  Others said, "Not so:
+        he is imposing on the people."
+
+007:013 Yet for fear of the Jews no one spoke out boldly about Him.
+
+007:014 But when the Festival was already half over, Jesus went up
+        to the Temple and commenced teaching.
+
+007:015 The Jews were astonished.  "How does this man know anything
+        of books," they said, "although he has never been at any
+        of the schools?"
+
+007:016 Jesus answered their question by saying, "My teaching does
+        not belong to me, but comes from Him who sent me.
+
+007:017 If any one is willing to do His will, he shall know about
+        the teaching, whether it is from God or originates with me.
+
+007:018 The man whose teaching originates with himself aims at his own glory.
+        He who aims at the glory of Him who sent him teaches the truth,
+        and there is no deception in him.
+
+007:019 Did not Moses give you the Law?  And yet not a man of you
+        obeys the Law.  Why do you want to kill me?"
+
+007:020 "You are possessed by a demon," replied the crowd; "no one wants
+        to kill you."
+
+007:021 "One deed I have done," replied Jesus, "and you are all
+        full of wonder.
+
+007:022 Consider therefore.  Moses gave you the rite of circumcision
+        (not that it began with Moses, but with your earlier forefathers),
+        and even on a Sabbath day you circumcise a child.
+
+007:023 If a child is circumcised even on a Sabbath day, are you bitter
+        against me because I have restored a man to perfect health
+        on a Sabbath day?
+
+007:024 Do not form superficial judgements, but form the judgements
+        that are just."
+
+007:025 Some however of the people of Jerusalem said, "Is not this
+        the man they are wanting to kill?
+
+007:026 But here he is, speaking openly and boldly, and they say nothing
+        to him!  Can the Rulers really have ascertained that this
+        man is the Christ?
+
+007:027 And yet we know this man, and we know where he is from;
+        but as for the Christ, when He comes, no one can tell where
+        He is from."
+
+007:028 Jesus therefore, while teaching in the Temple, cried aloud,
+        and said, "Yes, you know me, and you know where I am from.
+        And yet I have not come of my own accord; but there is One who has
+        sent me, an Authority indeed, of whom you have no knowledge.
+
+007:029 I know Him, because I came from Him, and He sent me."
+
+007:030 On hearing this they wanted to arrest Him; yet not a hand
+        was laid on Him, because His time had not yet come.
+
+007:031 But from among the crowd a large number believed in Him.
+        "When the Christ comes," they said, "will He perform more
+        miracles than this teacher has performed?"
+
+007:032 The Pharisees heard the people thus expressing their various
+        doubts about Him, and the High Priests and the Pharisees sent
+        some officers to apprehend Him.
+
+007:033 So Jesus said, "Still for a short time I am with you,
+        and then I go my way to Him who sent me.
+
+007:034 You will look for me and will not find me, and where I am
+        you cannot come."
+
+007:035 The Jews therefore said to one another, "Where is he about
+        to betake himself, so that we shall not find him?
+        Will he betake himself to the Dispersion among the Gentiles,
+        and teach the Gentiles?
+
+007:036 What do those words of his mean, `You will look for me,
+        but will not find me, and where I am you cannot come'?"
+
+007:037 On the last day of the Festival--the great day--Jesus stood
+        up and cried aloud.  "Whoever is thirsty," He said, "let him
+        come to me and drink.
+
+007:038 He who believes in me, from within him--as the Scripture has said--
+        rivers of living water shall flow."
+
+007:039 He referred to the Spirit which those who believed in Him
+        were to receive; for the Spirit was not bestowed as yet,
+        because Jesus had not yet been glorified.
+
+007:040 After listening to these discourses, some of the crowd began
+        to say, "This is beyond doubt the Prophet."
+
+007:041 Others said, "He is the Christ."  But others again, "Not so,
+        for is the Christ to come from Galilee?
+
+007:042 Has not the Scripture declared that the Christ is to come
+        of the family of David and from Bethlehem, David's village?"
+
+007:043 So there was a violent dissension among the people on His account.
+
+007:044 Some of them wanted at once to arrest Him, but no one laid
+        hands upon Him.
+
+007:045 Meanwhile the officers returned to the High Priests and Pharisees,
+        who asked them, "Why have you not brought him?"
+
+007:046 "No mere man has ever spoken as this man speaks,"
+        said the officers.
+
+007:047 "Are *you* deluded too?" replied the Pharisees;
+
+007:048 "has any one of the Rulers or of the Pharisees believed in him?
+
+007:049 But this rabble who understand nothing about the Law are accursed!"
+
+007:050 Nicodemus interposed--he who had formerly gone to Jesus,
+        being himself one of them.
+
+007:051 "Does our Law," he asked, "judge a man without first hearing
+        what he has to say and ascertaining what his conduct is?"
+
+007:052 "Do you also come from Galilee?" they asked in reply.
+        "Search and see for yourself that no Prophet is
+        of Galilaean origin."
+
+007:053 [So they went away to their several homes;
+
+008:001 but Jesus went to the Mount of Olives.
+
+008:002 At break of day however He returned to the Temple, and there
+        the people came to Him in crowds.  He seated Himself;
+
+008:003 and was teaching them when the Scribes and the Pharisees brought
+        to Him a woman who had been found committing adultery.
+        They made her stand in the centre of the court, and they put
+        the case to Him.
+
+008:004 "Rabbi," they said, "this woman has been found in the very act
+        of committing adultery.
+
+008:005 Now, in the Law, Moses has ordered us to stone such women to death.
+        But what do you say?"
+
+008:006 They asked this in order to put Him to the test,
+        so that they might have some charge to bring against Him.
+        But Jesus leant forward and began to write with His finger
+        on the ground.
+
+008:007 When however they persisted with their question, He raised
+        His head and said to them, "Let the sinless man among you
+        be the first to throw a stone at her."
+
+008:008 Then He leant forward again, and again began to write
+        on the ground.
+
+008:009 They listened to Him, and then, beginning with the eldest,
+        took their departure, one by one, till all were gone.
+        And Jesus was left behind alone--and the woman in the centre
+        of the court.
+
+008:010 Then, raising His head, Jesus said to her, "Where are they?
+        Has no one condemned you?"
+
+008:011 "No one, Sir," she replied.  "And *I* do not condemn you either,"
+        said Jesus; "go, and from this time do not sin any more."]
+
+008:012 Once more Jesus addressed them.  "I am the Light of the world,"
+        He said; "the man who follows me shall certainly not walk
+        in the dark, but shall have the light of Life."
+
+008:013 "You are giving testimony about yourself," said the Pharisees;
+        "your testimony is not true."
+
+008:014 "Even if I am giving testimony about myself," replied Jesus,
+        "my testimony is true; for I know where I came from and where I
+        am going, but you know neither of these two things.
+
+008:015 You judge according to appearances:  I am judging no one.
+
+008:016 And even if I do judge, my judgement is just; for I am not alone,
+        but the Father who sent me is with me.
+
+008:017 In your own Law, too, it is written that the testimony of two
+        men is true.
+
+008:018 I am one giving testimony about myself, and the Father who sent
+        me gives testimony about me."
+
+008:019 "Where is your Father?" they asked.  "You know my Father
+        as little as you know me."  He replied; "if you knew me,
+        you would know my Father also."
+
+008:020 These sayings He uttered in the Treasury, while teaching
+        in the Temple; yet no one arrested Him, because His time
+        had not yet come.
+
+008:021 Again He said to them, "I am going away.  Then you will try
+        to find me, but you will die in your sins.  Where I am going,
+        it is impossible for you to come."
+
+008:022 The Jews began to ask one another, "Is he going to kill himself,
+        do you think, that he says, `Where I am going, it is impossible
+        for you to come'?"
+
+008:023 "You," He continued, "are from below, I am from above:
+        you are of this present world, I am not of this present world.
+
+008:024 That is why I told you that you will die in your sins;
+        for, unless you believe that I am He, that is what will happen."
+
+008:025 "You--who are you?" they asked.  "How is it that I am speaking
+        to you at all?" replied Jesus.
+
+008:026 "Many things I have to speak and to judge concerning you.
+        But He who sent me is true, and the things which I have heard
+        from Him are those which I have come into the world to speak."
+
+008:027 They did not perceive that He was speaking to them of the Father.
+
+008:028 So Jesus added, "When you have lifted up the Son of Man,
+        then you will know that I am He.  Of myself I do nothing;
+        but as the Father has taught me, so I speak.
+
+008:029 And He who sent me is with me.  He has not left me alone:
+        for I do always what is pleasing to Him."
+
+008:030 As He thus spoke, many became believers in Him.
+
+008:031 Jesus therefore said to those of the Jews who had now believed
+        in Him, "As for you, if you hold fast to my teaching,
+        then you are truly my disciples;
+
+008:032 and you shall know the Truth, and the Truth will make you free."
+
+008:033 "We are descendants of Abraham," they answered,
+        "and have never at any time been in slavery to any one.
+        What do those words of yours mean, `You shall become free'?"
+
+008:034 "In most solemn truth I tell you," replied Jesus, "that every
+        one who commits sin is the slave of sin.
+
+008:035 Now a slave does not remain permanently in his master's house,
+        but a son does.
+
+008:036 If then the Son shall make you free, you will be free indeed.
+
+008:037 You are descendants of Abraham, I know; but you want to kill me,
+        because my teaching gains no ground within you.
+
+008:038 The words I speak are those I have learnt in the presence
+        of the Father.  Therefore you also should do what you have
+        heard from your father."
+
+008:039 "Our father is Abraham," they said.  "If you were Abraham's children,"
+        replied Jesus, "it is Abraham's deeds that you would be doing.
+
+008:040 But, in fact, you are longing to kill me, a man who has
+        spoken to you the truth which I have heard from God.
+        Abraham did not do that.
+
+008:041 You are doing the deeds of your father."  "We," they replied,
+        "are not illegitimate children.  We have one Father, namely God."
+
+008:042 "If God were your Father," said Jesus, "you would love me;
+        for it is from God that I came and I am now here.
+        I have not come of myself, but *He* sent me.
+
+008:043 How is it you do not understand me when I speak?
+        It is because you cannot bear to listen to my words.
+
+008:044 The father whose sons you are is the Devil; and you desire to do
+        what gives him pleasure.  *He* was a murderer from the beginning,
+        and does not stand firm in the truth--for there is no truth in him.
+        Whenever he utters his lie, he utters it out of his own store;
+        for he is a liar, and the father of lies.
+
+008:045 But because I speak the truth, you do not believe me.
+
+008:046 Which of *you* convicts me of sin?  If I speak the truth,
+        why do you not believe me?
+
+008:047 He who is a child of God listens to God's words.
+        You do not listen to them:  and why?  It is because you are
+        not God's children."
+
+008:048 "Are we not right," answered the Jews, "in saying that you
+        are a Samaritan and are possessed by a demon?"
+
+008:049 "I am not possessed by a demon," replied Jesus.
+        "On the contrary I honour my Father, and you dishonour me.
+
+008:050 I, however, am not aiming at glory for myself:  there is One
+        who aims at glory for me--and who judges.
+
+008:051 In most solemn truth I tell you that if any one shall have
+        obeyed my teaching he shall in no case ever see death."
+
+008:052 "Now," exclaimed the Jews, "we know that you are possessed
+        by a demon.  Abraham died, and so did the Prophets,
+        and yet *you* say, `If any one shall have obeyed my teaching,
+        he shall in no case ever taste death.'
+
+008:053 Are you really greater than our forefather Abraham?  For he died.
+        And the prophets died.  Who do you make yourself out to be?"
+
+008:054 "Were I to glorify myself," answered Jesus, "I should have no
+        real glory.  There is One who glorifies me--namely my Father,
+        who you say is your God.
+
+008:055 You do not know Him, but I know Him perfectly; and were I to deny
+        my knowledge of Him, I should resemble you, and be a liar.
+        On the contrary I do know Him, and I obey His commands.
+
+008:056 Abraham your forefather exulted in the hope of seeing my day:
+        and he saw it, and was glad."
+
+008:057 "You are not yet fifty years old," cried the Jews, "and have
+        you seen Abraham?"
+
+008:058 "In most solemn truth," answered Jesus, "I tell you that before
+        Abraham came into existence, I am."
+
+008:059 Thereupon they took up stones with which to stone Him,
+        but He hid Himself and went away out of the Temple.
+
+009:001 As He passed by, He saw a man who had been blind from his birth.
+
+009:002 So His disciples asked Him, "Rabbi, who sinned--this man
+        or his parents--that he was born blind?"
+
+009:003 "Neither he nor his parents sinned," answered Jesus,
+        "but he was born blind in order that God's mercy might be
+        openly shown in him.
+
+009:004 We must do the works of Him who sent me while there is daylight.
+        Night is coming on, when no one can work.
+
+009:005 When I am in the world, I am the Light of the world."
+
+009:006 After thus speaking, He spat on the ground, and then,
+        kneading the dust and spittle into clay, He smeared the clay
+        over the man's eyes and said to him,
+
+009:007 "Go and wash in the pool of Siloam"--the name means `Sent.'
+        So he went and washed his eyes, and returned able to see.
+
+009:008 His neighbours, therefore, and the other people to whom he had
+        been a familiar object because he was a beggar, began asking,
+        "Is not this the man who used to sit and beg?"
+
+009:009 "Yes it is," replied some of them.  "No it is not,"
+        said others, "but he is like him."  His own statement was,
+        "I am the man."
+
+009:010 "How then were your eyes opened?" they asked.
+
+009:011 "He whose name is Jesus," he answered, "made clay and smeared
+        my eyes with it, and then told me to go to Siloam and wash.
+        So I went and washed and obtained sight."
+
+009:012 "Where is he?" they inquired, but the man did not know.
+
+009:013 They brought him to the Pharisees--the man who had been blind.
+
+009:014 Now the day on which Jesus made the clay and opened the man's
+        eyes was the Sabbath.
+
+009:015 So the Pharisees renewed their questioning as to how he had
+        obtained his sight.  "He put clay on my eyes," he replied,
+        "and I washed, and now I can see."
+
+009:016 This led some of the Pharisees to say, "That man has not come
+        from God, for he does not keep the Sabbath."  "How is it
+        possible for a bad man to do such miracles?" argued others.
+
+009:017 And there was a division among them.  So again they asked the once
+        blind man, "What is your account of him?--for he opened your eyes."
+        "He is a Prophet," he replied.
+
+009:018 The Jews, however, did not believe the statement concerning him--
+        that he had been blind and had obtained his sight--until they
+        called his parents and asked them,
+
+009:019 "Is this your son, who you say was born blind?  How is it then
+        that he can now see?"
+
+009:020 "We know," replied the parents, "that this is our son and that
+        he was born blind;
+
+009:021 but how it is that he can now see or who has opened his
+        eyes we do not know.  Ask him himself; he is of full age;
+        he himself will give his own account of it."
+
+009:022 Such was their answer, because they were afraid of the Jews;
+        for the Jews had already settled among themselves that if any
+        one should acknowledge Jesus as the Christ, he should be
+        excluded from the synagogue.
+
+009:023 That was why his parents said, "He is of full age:
+        ask him himself."
+
+009:024 A second time therefore they called the man who had been blind,
+        and said, "Give God the praise:  we know that that man
+        is a sinner."
+
+009:025 "Whether he is a sinner or not, I do not know," he replied;
+        "one thing I know--that I was once blind and that now I can see."
+
+009:026 "What did he do to you?" they asked; "how did he open your eyes?"
+
+009:027 "I have told you already," he replied, "and you did
+        not listen to me.  Why do you want to hear it again?
+        Do you also mean to be disciples of his?"
+
+009:028 Then they railed at him, and said, "You are that man's disciple,
+        but we are disciples of Moses.
+
+009:029 We know that God spoke to Moses; but as for this fellow we
+        do not know where he comes from."
+
+009:030 "Why, this is marvellous!" the man replied; "you do not know
+        where he comes from, and yet he has opened my eyes!
+
+009:031 We know that God does not listen to bad people, but that if any
+        one is a God-fearing man and obeys Him, to him He listens.
+
+009:032 From the beginning of the world such a thing was never heard
+        of as that any one should open the eyes of a man blind
+        from his birth.
+
+009:033 Had that man not come from God, he could have done nothing."
+
+009:034 "You," they replied, "were wholly begotten and born in sin,
+        and do *you* teach *us*?"  And they put him out of the synagogue.
+
+009:035 Jesus heard that they had done this.  So having found him,
+        He asked him, "Do you believe in the Son of God?"
+
+009:036 "Who is He, Sir?" replied the man.  "Tell me, so that I may
+        believe in Him."
+
+009:037 "You have seen Him," said Jesus; "and not only so:
+        He is now speaking to you."
+
+009:038 "I believe, Sir," he said.  And he threw himself at His feet.
+
+009:039 "I came into this world," said Jesus, "to judge men,
+        that those who do not see may see, and that those who do see
+        may become blind."
+
+009:040 These words were heard by those of the Pharisees who were present,
+        and they asked Him, "Are *we* also blind?"
+
+009:041 "If you were blind," answered Jesus, "you would have no sin;
+        but as a matter of fact you boast that you see.
+        So your sin remains!"
+
+010:001 "In most solemn truth I tell you that the man who does not enter
+        the sheepfold by the door, but climbs over some other way,
+        is a thief and a robber.
+
+010:002 But he who enters by the door is the shepherd of the sheep.
+
+010:003 To him the porter opens the door, and the sheep hear his voice;
+        and he calls his own sheep by their names and leads them out.
+
+010:004 When he has brought out his own sheep--all of them--
+        he walks at the head of them; and the sheep follow him,
+        because they know his voice.
+
+010:005 But a stranger they will by no means follow, but will run away
+        from him, because they do not know the voice of strangers."
+
+010:006 Jesus spoke to them in this figurative language, but they did
+        not understand what He meant.
+
+010:007 Again therefore Jesus said to them, "In most solemn truth I
+        tell you that I am the Door of the sheep.
+
+010:008 All who have come before me are thieves and robbers;
+        but the sheep would not listen to them.
+
+010:009 I am the Door.  If any one enters by me, he will find safety,
+        and will go in and out and find pasture.
+
+010:010 The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy:
+        I have come that they may have Life, and may have it in abundance.
+
+010:011 "I am the Good Shepherd.  A good shepherd lays down his very life
+        for the sheep.
+
+010:012 The hired servant--one who is not a shepherd and does not own
+        the sheep--no sooner sees the wolf coming than he leaves
+        the sheep and runs away; and the wolf worries and scatters them.
+
+010:013 For he is only a hired servant and cares nothing for the sheep.
+
+010:014 "I am the Good Shepherd.  And I know my sheep and my sheep know me,
+
+010:015 just as the Father knows me and I know the Father; and I am
+        laying down my life for the sheep.
+
+010:016 I have also other sheep--which do not belong to this fold.
+        Those also I must bring, and they will listen to my voice;
+        and they shall become one flock under one Shepherd.
+
+010:017 For this reason my Father loves me, because I am laying down
+        my life in order to receive it back again.
+
+010:018 No one is taking it away from me, but I myself am laying it down.
+        I am authorized to lay it down, and I am authorized to receive
+        it back again.  This is the command I received from my Father."
+
+010:019 Again there arose a division among the Jews because of these words.
+
+010:020 Many of them said, "He is possessed by a demon and is mad.
+        Why do you listen to him?"
+
+010:021 Others argued, "That is not the language of a demoniac:
+        and can a demon open blind men's eyes?"
+
+010:022 The Dedication Festival came on in Jerusalem.  It was winter,
+
+010:023 and Jesus was walking in the Temple in Solomon's Portico,
+
+010:024 when the Jews gathered round Him and kept asking Him, "How long
+        do you mean to keep us in suspense?  If you are the Christ,
+        tell us so plainly."
+
+010:025 "I have told you," answered Jesus, "and you do not believe.
+        The deeds that I do in my Father's name--they give
+        testimony about me.
+
+010:026 But you do not believe, because you are not my sheep.
+
+010:027 My sheep listen to my voice, and I know them, and they follow me.
+
+010:028 I give them the Life of the Ages, and they shall never,
+        never perish, nor shall any one wrest them from my hand.
+
+010:029 What my Father has given me is more precious than all besides;
+        and no one is able to wrest anything from my Father's hand.
+
+010:030 I and the Father are one."
+
+010:031 Again the Jews brought stones with which to stone Him.
+
+010:032 Jesus remonstrated with them.  "Many good deeds," He said,
+        "have I shown you as coming from the Father; for which of them
+        are you going to stone me?"
+
+010:033 "For no good deed," the Jews replied, "are we going to stone you,
+        but for blasphemy, and because you, who are only a man,
+        are making yourself out to be God."
+
+010:034 "Does it not stand written in your Law," replied Jesus, "`I said,
+        you are gods'?
+
+010:035 If those to whom God's word was addressed are called gods
+        (and the Scripture cannot be annulled),
+
+010:036 how is it that you say to one whom the Father consecrated
+        and sent into the world, `You are blaspheming,' because I said,
+        `I am God's Son'?
+
+010:037 If the deeds I do are not my Father's deeds, do not believe me.
+
+010:038 But if they are, then even if you do not believe me,
+        at least believe the deeds, that you may know and see clearly
+        that the Father is in me, and that I am in the Father."
+
+010:039 This made them once more try to arrest Him, but He withdrew
+        out of their power.
+
+010:040 Then He went away again to the other side of the Jordan,
+        to the place where John had been baptizing at first;
+        and there He stayed.
+
+010:041 Large numbers of people also came to Him.  Their report was,
+        "John did not work any miracle, but all that John said about
+        this Teacher was true."
+
+010:042 And many became believers in Him there.
+
+011:001 Now a certain man, named Lazarus, of Bethany, was lying ill--
+        Bethany being the village of Mary and her sister Martha.
+
+011:002 (It was the Mary who poured the perfume over the Lord and wiped
+        His feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was ill.)
+
+011:003 So the sisters sent to Him to say, "Master, he whom you hold
+        dear is ill."
+
+011:004 Jesus received the message and said, "This illness is not
+        to end in death, but is to promote the glory of God,
+        in order that the Son of God may be glorified by it."
+
+011:005 Now Jesus loved Martha, and her sister, and Lazarus.
+
+011:006 When, however, He heard that Lazarus was ill, He still remained
+        two days in that same place.
+
+011:007 Then, after that, He said to the disciples, "Let us
+        return to Judaea."
+
+011:008 "Rabbi," exclaimed the disciples, "the Jews have just been trying
+        to stone you, and do you think of going back there again?"
+
+011:009 "Are there not twelve hours in the day?" replied Jesus.
+        "If any one walks in the daytime, he does not stumble--
+        because he sees the light of this world.
+
+011:010 But if a man walks by night, he does stumble, because the light
+        is not in him."
+
+011:011 He said this, and afterwards He added, "Our friend Lazarus
+        is sleeping, but I will go and wake him."
+
+011:012 "Master," said the disciples, "if he is asleep he will recover."
+
+011:013 Now Jesus had spoken of his death, but they thought He referred
+        to the rest taken in ordinary sleep.
+
+011:014 So then He told them plainly,
+
+011:015 "Lazarus is dead; and for your sakes I am glad I was not there,
+        in order that you may believe.  But let us go to him."
+
+011:016 "Let us go also," Thomas, the Twin, said to his fellow disciples,
+        "that we may die with him."
+
+011:017 On His arrival Jesus found that Lazarus had already been
+        three days in the tomb.
+
+011:018 Bethany was near Jerusalem, the distance being a little less
+        than two miles;
+
+011:019 and a considerable number of the Jews were with Martha and Mary,
+        having come to express sympathy with them on the death
+        of their brother.
+
+011:020 Martha, however, as soon as she heard the tidings, "Jesus is coming,"
+        went to meet Him; but Mary remained sitting in the house.
+
+011:021 So Martha came and spoke to Jesus.  "Master, if you had been here,"
+        she said, "my brother would not have died.
+
+011:022 And even now I know that whatever you ask God for,
+        God will give you."
+
+011:023 "Your brother shall rise again," replied Jesus.
+
+011:024 "I know," said Martha, "that he will rise again at the resurrection,
+        on the last day."
+
+011:025 "I am the Resurrection and the Life," said Jesus; "he who believes
+        in me, even if he has died, he shall live;
+
+011:026 and every one who is living and is a believer in me shall never,
+        never die.  Do you believe this?"
+
+011:027 "Yes, Master," she replied; "I thoroughly believe that you are
+        the Christ, the Son of God, who was to come into the world."
+
+011:028 After saying this, she went and called her sister Mary privately,
+        telling her, "The Rabbi is here and is asking for you."
+
+011:029 So she, on hearing that, rose up quickly to go to Him.
+
+011:030 Now Jesus was not yet come into the village, but was still
+        at the place where Martha had met Him.
+
+011:031 So the Jews who were with Mary in the house sympathizing with her,
+        when they saw that she had risen hastily and had gone out,
+        followed her, supposing that she was going to the tomb
+        to weep aloud there.
+
+011:032 Mary then, when she came to Jesus and saw Him, fell at His
+        feet and exclaimed, "Master, if you had been here, my brother
+        would not have died."
+
+011:033 Seeing her weeping aloud, and the Jews in like manner weeping
+        who had come with her, Jesus, curbing the strong emotion
+        of His spirit,
+
+011:034 though deeply troubled, asked them, "Where have you laid him?"
+        "Master, come and see," was their reply.
+
+011:035 Jesus wept.
+
+011:036 "See how dear he held him," said the Jews.
+
+011:037 But others of them asked, "Was this man who opened the blind
+        man's eyes unable to prevent this man from dying?"
+
+011:038 Jesus, however, again restraining His strong feeling,
+        came to the tomb.  It was a cave, and a stone had been laid
+        against the mouth of it.
+
+011:039 "Take away the stone," said Jesus.  Martha, the sister of the
+        dead man, exclaimed, "Master, by this time there is a foul smell;
+        for it is three days since he died."
+
+011:040 "Did I not promise you," replied Jesus, "that if you believe,
+        you shall see the glory of God?"
+
+011:041 So they removed the stone.  Then Jesus lifted up His eyes
+        and said, "Father, I thank Thee that Thou hast heard me.
+
+011:042 I know that Thou always hearest me; but for the sake of the crowd
+        standing round I have said this--that they may believe
+        that Thou didst send me."
+
+011:043 After speaking thus, He called out in a loud voice,
+        "Lazarus, come out."
+
+011:044 The dead man came out, his hands and feet wrapped in cloths,
+        and his face wrapped round with a towel.  "Untie him,"
+        said Jesus, "and let him go free."
+
+011:045 Thereupon a considerable number of the Jews--namely those
+        who had come to Mary and had witnessed His deeds--
+        became believers in Him;
+
+011:046 though some of them went off to the Pharisees and told them
+        what He had done.
+
+011:047 Therefore the High Priests and the Pharisees held a meeting of
+        the Sanhedrin.  "What steps are we taking?" they asked one another;
+        "for this man is performing a great number of miracles.
+
+011:048 If we leave him alone in this way, everybody will believe
+        in him, and the Romans will come and blot out both our city
+        and our nation."
+
+011:049 But one of them, named Caiaphas, being High Priest that year,
+        said, "You know nothing about it.
+
+011:050 You do not reflect that it is to your interest that one man
+        should die for the people rather than the whole nation perish."
+
+011:051 It was not as a mere man that he thus spoke.  But being
+        High Priest that year he was inspired to declare that Jesus
+        was to die for the nation,
+
+011:052 and not for the nation only, but in order to unite into one
+        body all the far-scattered children of God.
+
+011:053 So from that day forward they planned and schemed in order
+        to put Him to death.
+
+011:054 Therefore Jesus no longer went about openly among the Jews,
+        but He left that neighbourhood and went into the district
+        near the Desert, to a town called Ephraim, and remained there
+        with the disciples.
+
+011:055 The Jewish Passover was coming near, and many from that district
+        went up to Jerusalem before the Passover, to purify themselves.
+
+011:056 They therefore looked out for Jesus, and asked one another
+        as they stood in the Temple, "What do you think?--will he come
+        to the Festival at all?"
+
+011:057 Now the High Priests and the Pharisees had issued orders
+        that if any one knew where He was, he should give information,
+        so that they might arrest Him.
+
+012:001 Jesus, however, six days before the Passover, came to Bethany,
+        where Lazarus was whom He had raised from the dead.
+
+012:002 So they gave a dinner there in honour of Jesus, at which
+        Martha waited at table, but Lazarus was one of the guests
+        who were with Him.
+
+012:003 Availing herself of the opportunity, Mary took a pound weight
+        of pure spikenard, very costly, and poured it over His feet,
+        and wiped His feet with her hair, so that the house was filled
+        with the fragrance of the perfume.
+
+012:004 Then said Judas (the Iscariot, one of the Twelve--the one
+        who afterwards betrayed Jesus),
+
+012:005 "Why was not that perfume sold for 300 shillings and the money
+        given to the poor?"
+
+012:006 The reason he said this was not that he cared for the poor,
+        but that he was a thief, and that being in charge of the money-box,
+        he used to steal what was put into it.
+
+012:007 But Jesus interposed.  "Do not blame her," He said, "allow her
+        to have kept it for the time of my preparation for burial.
+
+012:008 For the poor you always have with you, but you have not me always."
+
+012:009 Now it became widely known among the Jews that Jesus was there;
+        but they came not only on His account, but also in order
+        to see Lazarus whom He had brought back to life.
+
+012:010 The High Priests, however, consulted together to put Lazarus
+        also to death,
+
+012:011 for because of him many of the Jews left them and became
+        believers in Jesus.
+
+012:012 The next day a great crowd of those who had come to the Festival,
+        hearing that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem,
+
+012:013 took branches of the palm trees and went out to meet Him,
+        shouting as they went, "God save him!  Blessings on him who
+        comes in the name of the Lord--even on the King of Israel!"
+
+012:014 And Jesus, having procured a young ass, sat upon it,
+        just as the Scripture says,
+
+012:015 "Fear not, Daughter of Zion!  See, thy King is coming riding
+        on an ass's colt."
+
+012:016 The meaning of this His disciples did not understand at the time;
+        but after Jesus was glorified they recollected that this
+        was written about Him, and that they had done this to Him.
+
+012:017 The large number of people, however, who had been present when He
+        called Lazarus out of the tomb and brought him back to life,
+        related what they had witnessed.
+
+012:018 This was also why the crowd came to meet Him, because they
+        had heard of His having performed that miracle.
+
+012:019 The result was that the Pharisees said among themselves,
+        "Observe how idle all your efforts are!  The world is
+        gone after him!"
+
+012:020 Now some of those who used to come up to worship at the
+        Festival were Greeks.
+
+012:021 They came to Philip, of Bethsaida in Galilee, with the request,
+        "Sir, we wish to see Jesus."
+
+012:022 Philip came and told Andrew:  Andrew and Philip told Jesus.
+
+012:023 His answer was, "The time has come for the Son of Man
+        to be glorified.
+
+012:024 In most solemn truth I tell you that unless the grain of wheat
+        falls into the ground and dies, it remains what it was--
+        a single grain; but that if it dies, it yields a rich harvest.
+
+012:025 He who holds his life dear, is destroying it; and he who makes
+        his life of no account in this world shall keep it to the Life
+        of the Ages.
+
+012:026 If a man wishes to be my servant, let him follow me;
+        and where I am, there too shall my servant be.
+        If a man wishes to be my servant, the Father will honour him.
+
+012:027 Now is my soul full of trouble; and what shall I say?
+        Father, save me from this hour.  But for this purpose I
+        have come to this hour.
+
+012:028 Father, glorify Thy name."  Thereupon there came a voice from
+        the sky, "I have glorified it and will also glorify it again."
+
+012:029 The crowd that stood by and heard it, said that there had
+        been thunder.  Others said, "An angel spoke to him."
+
+012:030 "It is not for my sake," said Jesus, "that that voice came,
+        but for your sakes.
+
+012:031 Now is a judgement of this world:  now will the Prince of this
+        world be driven out.
+
+012:032 And I--if I am lifted up from the earth--will draw all men to me."
+
+012:033 He said this to indicate the kind of death He would die.
+
+012:034 The crowd answered Him, "We have heard out of the Law that
+        the Christ remains for ever.  In what sense do you say that
+        the Son of Man must be lifted up?  Who is that Son of Man?"
+
+012:035 "Yet a little while," He replied, "the light is among you.
+        Be faithful to the light that you have, for fear darkness
+        should overtake you; for a man who walks in the dark does
+        not know where he is going.
+
+012:036 In the degree that you have light, believe in the Light,
+        so that you may become sons of Light."  Jesus said this,
+        and went away and hid Himself from them.
+
+012:037 But though He had performed such great miracles in their presence,
+        they did not believe in Him--
+
+012:038 in order that the words of Isaiah the Prophet might
+        be fulfilled, "Lord, who has believed our preaching?
+        And the arm of the Lord--to whom has it been unveiled?"
+
+012:039 For this reason they were unable to believe--because Isaiah
+        said again,
+
+012:040 "He has blinded their eyes and made their minds callous,
+        lest they should see with their eyes and perceive with their minds,
+        and should turn, and I should heal them."
+
+012:041 Isaiah uttered these words because he saw His glory;
+        and he spoke of Him.
+
+012:042 Nevertheless even from among the Rulers many believed in Him.
+        But because of the Pharisees they did not avow their belief,
+        for fear they should be shut out from the synagogue.
+
+012:043 For they loved the glory that comes from men rather than
+        the glory that comes from God.
+
+012:044 But Jesus cried aloud, "He who believes in me, believes not
+        so much in me, as in Him who sent me;
+
+012:045 and he who sees me sees Him who sent me.
+
+012:046 I have come like light into the world, in order that no one
+        who believes in me may remain in the dark.
+
+012:047 And if any one hears my teachings and regards them not,
+        I do not judge him; for I did not come to judge the world,
+        but to save the world.
+
+012:048 He who sets me at naught and does not receive my teachings
+        is not left without a judge:  the Message which I have spoken
+        will judge him on the last day.
+
+012:049 Because I have not spoken on my own authority; but the Father
+        who sent me, Himself gave me a command what to say and in
+        what words to speak.
+
+012:050 And I know that His command is the Life of the Ages.
+        What therefore I speak, I speak just as the Father has bidden me."
+
+013:001 Now just before the Feast of the Passover this incident took place.
+        Jesus knew that the time had come for Him to leave this world
+        and go to the Father; and having loved His own who were
+        in the world, He loved them to the end.
+
+013:002 While supper was proceeding, the Devil having by this time
+        suggested to Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon, the thought
+        of betraying Him, Jesus,
+
+013:003 although He knew that the Father had put everything into His hands,
+        and that He had come forth from God and was now going to God,
+
+013:004 rose from the table, threw off His upper garments, and took
+        a towel and tied it round Him.
+
+013:005 Then He poured water into a basin, and proceeded to wash
+        the feet of the disciples and to wipe them with the towel
+        which He had put round Him.
+
+013:006 When He came to Simon Peter, Peter objected.  "Master," he said,
+        "are *you* going to wash my feet?"
+
+013:007 "What I am doing," answered Jesus, "for the present you do
+        not know, but afterwards you shall know."
+
+013:008 "Never, while the world lasts," said Peter, "shall you
+        wash my feet."  "If I do not wash you," replied Jesus,
+        "you have no share with me."
+
+013:009 "Master," said Peter, "wash not only my feet, but also my hands
+        and my head."
+
+013:010 "Any one who has lately bathed," said Jesus, "does not
+        need to wash more than his feet, but is clean all over.
+        And you my disciples are clean, and yet this is not true
+        of all of you."
+
+013:011 For He knew who was betraying Him, and that was why He said,
+        "You are not all of you clean."
+
+013:012 So after He had washed their feet, put on His garments again,
+        and returned to the table, He said to them, "Do you understand
+        what I have done to you?
+
+013:013 You call me `The Rabbi' and `The Master,' and rightly so,
+        for such I am.
+
+013:014 If I then, your Master and Rabbi, have washed your feet,
+        it is also your duty to wash one another's feet.
+
+013:015 For I have set you an example in order that you may do what I
+        have done to you.
+
+013:016 In most solemn truth I tell you that a servant is not superior
+        to his master, nor is a messenger superior to him who sent him.
+
+013:017 If you know all this, blessed are you if you act accordingly.
+
+013:018 I am not speaking of all of you.  I know whom I have chosen,
+        but things are as they are in order that the Scripture may
+        be fulfilled, which says, `He who eats my bread has lifted
+        up his heel against me.'
+
+013:019 From this time forward I tell you things before they happen,
+        in order that when they do happen you may believe that I am He.
+
+013:020 In most solemn truth I tell you that he who receives whoever
+        I send receives me, and that he who receives me receives Him
+        who sent me."
+
+013:021 After speaking thus Jesus was troubled in spirit and said
+        with deep earnestness, "In most solemn truth I tell you
+        that one of you will betray me."
+
+013:022 The disciples began looking at one another, at a loss to know
+        to which of them He was referring.
+
+013:023 There was at table one of His disciples--the one Jesus loved--
+        reclining with his head on Jesus's bosom.
+
+013:024 Making a sign therefore to him, Simon Peter said, "Tell us
+        to whom he is referring."
+
+013:025 So he, having his head on Jesus's bosom, leaned back and asked,
+        "Master, who is it?"
+
+013:026 "It is the one," answered Jesus, "for whom I shall dip this
+        piece of bread and to whom I shall give it."  Accordingly He
+        dipped the piece of bread, and took it and gave it to Judas,
+        the son of the Iscariot Simon.
+
+013:027 Then, after Judas had received the piece of bread, Satan entered
+        into him.  "Lose no time about it," said Jesus to him.
+
+013:028 But why He said this no one else at the table understood.
+
+013:029 Some, however, supposed that because Judas had the money-box
+        Jesus meant, "Buy what we require for the Festival,"
+        or that he should give something to the poor.
+
+013:030 So Judas took the piece of bread and immediately went out.
+        And it was night.
+
+013:031 So when he was gone out, Jesus said, "Now is the Son of
+        Man glorified, and God is glorified in Him.
+
+013:032 Moreover God will glorify Him in Himself, and will glorify
+        Him without delay.
+
+013:033 Dear children, I am still with you a little longer.
+        You will seek me, but, as I said to the Jews, `Where I am
+        going you cannot come,' so for the present I say to you.
+
+013:034 A new commandment I give you, to love one another; that as I
+        have loved you, you also may love one another.
+
+013:035 It is by this that every one will know that you are my disciples--
+        if you love one another."
+
+013:036 "Master," inquired Simon Peter, "where are you going?"
+        "Where I am going," replied Jesus, "you cannot be my follower now,
+        but you shall be later."
+
+013:037 "Master," asked Peter again, "why cannot I follow you now?
+        I will lay down my life on your behalf.
+
+013:038 "You say you will lay down your life on my behalf!" said Jesus;
+        "in most solemn truth I tell you that the cock will not crow
+        before you have three times disowned me."
+
+014:001 "Let not your hearts be troubled.  Trust in God:
+        trust in me also.
+
+014:002 In my Father's house there are many resting-places. Were
+        it otherwise, I would have told you; for I am going to make
+        ready a place for you.
+
+014:003 And if I go and make ready a place for you, I will return
+        and take you to be with me, that where I am you also may be.
+
+014:004 And where I am going, you all know the way."
+
+014:005 "Master," said Thomas, "we do not know where you are going.
+        In what sense do we know the way?"
+
+014:006 "I am the Way," replied Jesus, "and the Truth and the Life.
+        No one comes to the Father except through me.
+
+014:007 If you--all of you--knew me, you would fully know my Father also.
+        From this time forward you know Him and have seen Him."
+
+014:008 "Master," said Philip, "cause us to see the Father:
+        that is all we need."
+
+014:009 "Have I been so long among you," Jesus answered, "and yet you,
+        Philip, do not know me?  He who has seen me has seen the Father.
+        How can *you* ask me, `Cause us to see the Father'?
+
+014:010 Do you not believe that I am in the Father and that the Father
+        is in me?  The things that I tell you all I do not speak on
+        my own authority:  but the Father dwelling within me carries
+        on His own work.
+
+014:011 Believe me, all of you, that I am in the Father and that the Father
+        is in me; or at any rate, believe me because of what I do.
+
+014:012 In most solemn truth I tell you that he who trusts in me--
+        the things which I do he shall do also; and greater things
+        than these he shall do, because I am going to the Father.
+
+014:013 And whatever any of you ask in my name, I will do, in order
+        that the Father may be glorified in the Son.
+
+014:014 If you make any request of me in my name, I will do it.
+
+014:015 "If you love me, you will obey my commandments.
+
+014:016 And I will ask the Father, and He will give you another Advocate
+        to be for ever with you--the Spirit of truth.
+
+014:017 That Spirit the world cannot receive, because it does not see
+        Him or know Him.  You know Him, because He remains by your
+        side and is in you.
+
+014:018 I will not leave you bereaved:  I am coming to you.
+
+014:019 Yet a little while and the world will see me no more, but you
+        will see me:  because I live, you also shall live.
+
+014:020 At that time you will know that I am in my Father, and that you
+        are in me, and that I am in you.
+
+014:021 He who has my commandments and obeys them--he it is who loves me.
+        And he who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I will
+        love him and will clearly reveal myself to him."
+
+014:022 Judas (not the Iscariot) asked, "Master, how is it that you
+        will reveal yourself clearly to us and not to the world?"
+
+014:023 "If any one loves me," replied Jesus, "he will obey my teaching;
+        and my Father will love him, and we will come to him and make
+        our home with him.
+
+014:024 He who has no love for me does not obey my teaching;
+        and yet the teaching to which you are listening is not mine,
+        but is the teaching of the Father who sent me.
+
+014:025 "All this I have spoken to you while still with you.
+
+014:026 But the Advocate, the Holy Spirit whom the Father will send
+        at my request, will teach you everything, and will bring
+        to your memories all that I have said to you.
+
+014:027 Peace I leave with you:  my own peace I give to you.
+        It is not as the world gives its greetings that I give you peace.
+        Let not your hearts be troubled or dismayed.
+
+014:028 "You heard me say to you, `I am going away, and yet I am coming
+        to you.'  If you loved me, you would have rejoiced because I
+        am going to the Father; for the Father is greater than I am.
+
+014:029 I have now told you before it comes to pass, that when it has
+        come to pass you may believe.
+
+014:030 In future I shall not talk much with you, for the Prince
+        of this world is coming.  And yet in me he has nothing;
+
+014:031 but it is in order that the world may know that I love the Father,
+        and that it is in obedience to the command which the Father
+        gave me that I thus act.  Rise, let us be going."
+
+015:001 "I am the Vine--the True Vine, and my Father is the vine-dresser.
+
+015:002 Every branch in me--if it bears no fruit, He takes away;
+        and every branch that bears fruit He prunes, that it may
+        bear more fruit.
+
+015:003 Already you are cleansed--through the teaching which I
+        have given you.
+
+015:004 Continue in me, and let me continue in you.  Just as the branch
+        cannot bear fruit of itself--that is, if it does not continue
+        in the vine--so neither can you if you do not continue in me.
+
+015:005 I am the Vine, you are the branches.  He who continues in me
+        and in whom I continue bears abundant fruit, for apart from me
+        you can do nothing.
+
+015:006 If any one does not continue in me, he is like the unfruitful
+        branch which is at once thrown away and then withers up.
+        Such branches they gather up and throw into the fire and
+        they are burned.
+
+015:007 "If you continue in me and my sayings continue in you,
+        ask what you will and it shall be done for you.
+
+015:008 By this is God glorified--by your bearing abundant fruit
+        and thus being true disciples of mine.
+
+015:009 As the Father has loved me, I have also loved you:
+        continue in my love.
+
+015:010 If you obey my commands, you will continue in my love, as I
+        have obeyed my Father's commands and continue in His love.
+
+015:011 "These things I have spoken to you in order that I may have joy
+        in you, and that your joy may become perfect.
+
+015:012 This is my commandment to you, to love one another as I
+        have loved you.
+
+015:013 No one has greater love than this--a man laying down his life
+        for his friends.
+
+015:014 You are my friends, if you do what I command you.
+
+015:015 No longer do I call you servants, because a servant does not
+        know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends,
+        because all that I have heard from the Father I have made
+        known to you.
+
+015:016 It is not you who chose me, but it is I who chose you and
+        appointed you that you might go and be fruitful and that your
+        fruit might remain; so that whatever petition you present
+        to the Father in my name He may give you.
+
+015:017 "Thus I command you to love one another.
+
+015:018 If the world hates you, remember that it has first had me
+        as the fixed object of its hatred.
+
+015:019 If you belonged to the world, the world would love its own property.
+        But because you do not belong to the world, and I have chosen
+        you out of the world--for that reason the world hates you.
+
+015:020 Bear in mind what I said to you, `A servant is not superior
+        to his master.'  If they have persecuted me, they will
+        also persecute you:  if they have obeyed my teaching,
+        they will obey yours also.
+
+015:021 But they will inflict all this suffering upon you on account
+        of your bearing my name--because they do not know Him
+        who sent me.
+
+015:022 "If I had not come and spoken to them, they would have had no sin;
+        but as the case stands they are without excuse for their sin.
+
+015:023 He who hates me hates my Father also.
+
+015:024 If I had not done among them, as I have, such miracles as no
+        one else ever did, they would have had no sin; but they
+        have in fact seen and also hated both me and my Father.
+
+015:025 But this has been so, in order that the saying may be fulfilled
+        which stands written in their Law, `They have hated me
+        without any reason.'
+
+015:026 "When the Advocate is come whom I will send to you from
+        the Father's presence--the Spirit of Truth who comes forth
+        from the Father's presence--He will be a witness concerning me.
+
+015:027 And you also are witnesses, because you have been with me
+        from the first.
+
+016:001 "These things I have spoken to you in order to clear
+        stumbling-blocks out of your path.
+
+016:002 You will be excluded from the synagogues; nay more, the time
+        is coming when any one who has murdered one of you will suppose
+        he is offering service to God.
+
+016:003 And they will do these things because they have failed
+        to recognize the Father and to discover who I am.
+
+016:004 But I have spoken these things to you in order that when
+        the time for their accomplishment comes you may remember them,
+        and may recollect that I told you.  I did not, however, tell you
+        all this at first, because I was still with you.
+
+016:005 But now I an returning to Him who sent me; and not one of you
+        asks me where I am going.
+
+016:006 But grief has filled your hearts because I have said all
+        this to you.
+
+016:007 "Yet it is the truth that I am telling you--it is to your
+        advantage that I go away.  For unless I go away, the Advocate
+        will not come to you; but if I go, I will send Him to you.
+
+016:008 And He, when He comes, will convict the world in respect of sin,
+        of righteousness, and of judgement;--
+
+016:009 of sin, because they do not believe in me;
+
+016:010 of righteousness, because I am going to the Father, and you
+        will no longer see me;
+
+016:011 of judgement, because the Prince of this world is under sentence.
+
+016:012 "I have much more to say to you, but you are unable at present
+        to bear the burden of it.
+
+016:013 But when He has come--the Spirit of Truth--He will guide
+        you into all the truth.  For He will not speak as Himself
+        originating what He says, but all that He hears He will speak,
+        and He will make known the future to you.
+
+016:014 He will glorify me, because He will take of what is mine
+        and will make it known to you.
+
+016:015 Everything that the Father has is mine; that is why I said
+        that the Spirit of Truth takes of what is mine and will make
+        it known to you.
+
+016:016 "A little while and you see me no more, and again a little
+        while and you shall see me."
+
+016:017 Some of His disciples therefore said to one another, "What does
+        this mean which He is telling us, `A little while and you
+        do not see me, and again a little while and you shall see me,'
+        and `Because I am going to the Father'?"
+
+016:018 So they asked one another repeatedly, "What can that `little while'
+        mean which He speaks of?  We do not understand His words."
+
+016:019 Jesus perceived that they wanted to ask Him, and He said,
+        "Is this what you are questioning one another about--
+        my saying, `A little while and you do not see me, and again
+        a little while and you shall see me'?
+
+016:020 In most solemn truth I tell you that you will weep aloud
+        and lament, but the world will be glad.  You will mourn,
+        but your grief will be turned into gladness.
+
+016:021 A woman, when she is in labour, has sorrow, because her
+        time has come.  But when she has given birth to the babe,
+        she no longer remembers the pain, because of her joy at a child
+        being born into the world.
+
+016:022 So you also now have sorrow; but I shall see you again,
+        and your hearts will be glad, and your gladness no one will
+        take away from you.
+
+016:023 You will put no questions to me then.  "In most solemn truth
+        I tell you that whatever you ask the Father for in my name
+        He will give you.
+
+016:024 As yet you have not asked for anything in my name:  ask, and you
+        shall receive, that your hearts may be filled with gladness.
+
+016:025 "All this I have spoken to you in veiled language.
+        The time is coming when I shall no longer speak to you
+        in veiled language, but will tell you about the Father
+        in plain words.
+
+016:026 At that time you will make your requests in my name;
+        and I do not promise to ask the Father on your behalf,
+
+016:027 for the Father Himself holds you dear, because you have held me
+        dear and have believed that I came from the Father's presence.
+
+016:028 I came from the Father and have come into the world.
+        Again I am leaving the world and am going to the Father."
+
+016:029 "Ah, now you are using plain language," said His disciples,
+        "and are uttering no figure of speech!
+
+016:030 Now we know that you have all knowledge, and do not need to be
+        pressed with questions.  Through this we believe that you
+        came from God."
+
+016:031 "Do you at last believe?" replied Jesus.
+
+016:032 "Remember that the time is coming, nay, has already come, for you
+        all to be dispersed each to his own home and to leave me alone.
+        And yet I am not alone, for the Father is with me.
+
+016:033 "I have spoken all this to you in order that in me you
+        may have peace.  In the world you have affliction.
+        But keep up your courage:  *I* have won the victory
+        over the world."
+
+017:001 When Jesus had thus spoken, He raised his eyes towards Heaven
+        and said, "Father, the hour has come.  Glorify Thy Son
+        that the Son may glorify Thee;
+
+017:002 even as Thou hast given Him authority over all mankind,
+        so that on all whom Thou hast given Him He may bestow the Life
+        of the Ages.
+
+017:003 And in this consists the Life of the Ages--in knowing Thee
+        the only true God and Jesus Christ whom Thou hast sent.
+
+017:004 I have glorified Thee on earth, having done perfectly the work
+        which by Thine appointment has been mine to do.
+
+017:005 And now, Father, do Thou glorify me in Thine own presence,
+        with the glory that I had in Thy presence before the world existed.
+
+017:006 "I have revealed Thy perfections to the men whom Thou gavest me
+        out of the world.  Thine they were, and Thou gavest them to me,
+        and they have obeyed Thy message.
+
+017:007 Now they know that whatever Thou hast given me is from Thee.
+
+017:008 For the truths which Thou didst teach me I have taught them.
+        And they have received them, and have known for certain that I
+        came out from Thy presence, and have believed that Thou
+        didst send me.
+
+017:009 "I am making request for them:  for the world I do not make
+        any request, but for those whom Thou hast given me.
+        Because they are Thine,
+
+017:010 and everything that is mine is Thine, and everything that is
+        Thine is mine; and I am crowned with glory in them.
+
+017:011 I am now no longer in the world, but they are in the world and I
+        am coming to Thee.  "Holy Father, keep them true to Thy name--
+        the name which Thou hast given me to bear--that they may be one,
+        even as we are.
+
+017:012 While I was with them, I kept them true to Thy name--the name
+        Thou hast given me to bear--and I kept watch over them, and not
+        one of them is lost but only he who is doomed to destruction--
+        that the Scripture may be fulfilled.
+
+017:013 "But now I am coming to Thee, and I speak these words while I
+        am in the world, in order that they may have my gladness
+        within them filling their hearts.
+
+017:014 I have given them Thy Message, and the world has hated them,
+        because they do not belong to the world, just as I do not
+        belong to the world.
+
+017:015 I do not ask that Thou wilt remove them out of the world,
+        but that Thou wilt protect them from the Evil one.
+
+017:016 They do not belong to the world, just as I do not belong
+        to the world.
+
+017:017 Make them holy in the truth:  Thy Message is truth.
+
+017:018 Just as Thou didst send me into the world, I also have sent them;
+
+017:019 and on their behalf I consecrate myself, in order that they
+        may become perfectly consecrated in truth.
+
+017:020 "Nor is it for them alone that I make request.
+        It is also for those who trust in me through their teaching;
+
+017:021 that they may all be one, even as Thou art in me, O Father,
+        and I am in Thee; that they also may be in us; that the world
+        may believe that Thou didst send me.
+
+017:022 And the glory which Thou hast given me I have given them,
+        that they may be one, just as we are one:
+
+017:023 I in them and Thou in me; that they may stand perfected in one;
+        that the world may come to understand that Thou didst send me
+        and hast loved them with the same love as that with which Thou
+        hast loved me.
+
+017:024 "Father, those whom Thou hast given me--I desire that where I
+        am they also may be with me, that they may see the glory--
+        my glory--my gift from Thee, which Thou hast given me because
+        Thou didst love me before the creation of the world.
+
+017:025 And, righteous Father, though the world has failed to
+        recognize Thee, I have known Thee, and these have perceived
+        that Thou didst send me.
+
+017:026 And I have made known Thy name to them and will make it known,
+        that the love with which Thou hast loved me may be in them,
+        and that I may be in them."
+
+018:001 After offering this prayer Jesus went out with His
+        disciples to a place on the further side of the Ravine
+        of the Cedars, where there was a garden which He entered--
+        Himself and His disciples.
+
+018:002 Now Judas also, who at that very time was betraying Him,
+        knew the place, for Jesus had often resorted there
+        with His disciples.
+
+018:003 So Judas, followed by the battalion and by a detachment
+        of the Temple police sent by the High Priests and Pharisees,
+        came there with torches and lamps and weapons.
+
+018:004 Jesus therefore, knowing all that was about to befall Him,
+        went out to meet them.  "Who are you looking for?"
+        He asked them.
+
+018:005 "For Jesus the Nazarene," was the answer.  "I am he," He replied.
+        (Now Judas who was betraying Him was also standing with them.)
+
+018:006 As soon then as He said to them, "I am he," they went backwards
+        and fell to the ground.
+
+018:007 Again therefore He asked them, "Who are you looking for?"
+        "For Jesus the Nazarene," they said.
+
+018:008 "I have told you," replied Jesus, "that I am he.
+        If therefore you are looking for me, let these my disciples
+        go their way."
+
+018:009 He made this request in order that the words He had spoken
+        might be fulfilled, "As for those whom Thou hast given me,
+        I have not lost one."
+
+018:010 Simon Peter, however, having a sword, drew it, and, aiming at
+        the High Priest's servant, cut off his right ear.
+        The servant's name was Malchus.
+
+018:011 Jesus therefore said to Peter, "Put back your sword.
+        Shall I refuse to drink the cup of sorrow which the Father
+        has given me to drink?"
+
+018:012 So the battalion and their tribune and the Jewish police closed in,
+        and took Jesus and bound Him.
+
+018:013 They then brought Him to Annas first; for Annas was the father-in-law
+        of Caiaphas who was High Priest that year.
+
+018:014 (It was this Caiaphas who had advised the Jews, saying, "It is
+        to your interest that one man should die for the People.")
+
+018:015 Meanwhile Simon Peter was following Jesus, and so also was
+        another disciple.  The latter was known to the High Priest,
+        and went in with Jesus into the court of the High Priest's palace.
+
+018:016 But Peter remained standing outside the door, till the disciple
+        who was acquainted with the High Priest came out and induced
+        the portress to let Peter in.
+
+018:017 This led the girl, the portress, to ask Peter, "Are you also
+        one of this man's disciples?"  "No, I am not," he replied.
+
+018:018 Now because it was cold the servants and the police had lighted
+        a charcoal fire, and were standing and warming themselves;
+        and Peter too remained with them, standing and warming himself.
+
+018:019 So the High Priest questioned Jesus about His disciples
+        and His teaching.
+
+018:020 "As for me," replied Jesus, "I have spoken openly to the world.
+        I have continually taught in some synagogue or in the Temple
+        where all the Jews are wont to assemble, and I have said
+        nothing in secret.
+
+018:021 Why do you question me?  Question those who heard what it was I
+        said to them:  these witnesses here know what I said."
+
+018:022 Upon His saying this, one of the officers standing by struck Him
+        with his open hand, asking Him as he did so, "Is that the way
+        you answer the High Priest?"
+
+018:023 "If I have spoken wrongly," replied Jesus, "bear witness to it
+        as wrong; but if rightly, why that blow?"
+
+018:024 So Annas sent Him bound to Caiaphas the High Priest.
+
+018:025 But Simon Peter remained standing and warming himself, and this
+        led to their asking him, "Are you also one of his disciples?"
+        He denied it, and said, "No, I am not."
+
+018:026 One of the High Priest's servants, a relative of the man
+        whose ear Peter had cut off, said, "Did I not see you
+        in the garden with him?"
+
+018:027 Once more Peter denied it, and immediately a cock crowed.
+
+018:028 So they brought Jesus from Caiaphas's house to the Praetorium.
+        It was the early morning, and they would not enter the Praetorium
+        themselves for fear of defilement, and in order that they
+        might be able to eat the Passover.
+
+018:029 Accordingly Pilate came out to them and inquired, "What accusation
+        have you to bring against this man?"
+
+018:030 "If the man were not a criminal," they replied, "we would
+        not have handed him over to you."
+
+018:031 "Take him yourselves," said Pilate, "and judge him by your Law."
+        "We have no power," replied the Jews, "to put any man to death."
+
+018:032 They said this that the words might be fulfilled in which Jesus
+        predicted the kind of death He was to die.
+
+018:033 Re-entering the Praetorium, therefore, Pilate called Jesus
+        and asked Him, "Are *you* the King of the Jews?"
+
+018:034 "Do you say this of yourself, or have others told it you
+        about me?" replied Jesus.
+
+018:035 "Am I a Jew?" exclaimed Pilate; "it is your own nation
+        and the High Priests who have handed you over to me.
+        What have you done?"
+
+018:036 "My kingdom," replied Jesus, "does not belong to this world.
+        If my kingdom did belong to this world, my subjects would have
+        resolutely fought to save me from being delivered up to the Jews.
+        But, as a matter of fact, my kingdom has not this origin."
+
+018:037 "So then *you* are a king!" rejoined Pilate.  "Yes," said Jesus,
+        "you say truly that I am a king.  For this purpose I
+        was born, and for this purpose I have come into the world--
+        to give testimony for the truth.  Every one who is a friend
+        of the truth listens to my voice."
+
+018:038 "What is truth?" said Pilate.  But no sooner had he spoken
+        the words than he went out again to the Jews and told them,
+        "I find no crime in him.
+
+018:039 But you have a custom that I should release one prisoner
+        to you at the Passover.  So shall I release to you the King
+        of the Jews?"
+
+018:040 With a roar of voices they again cried out, saying, "Not this man,
+        but Barabbas!"  Now Barabbas was a robber.
+
+019:001 Then Pilate took Jesus and scourged Him.
+
+019:002 And the soldiers, twisting twigs of thorn into a wreath,
+        put it on His head, and threw round Him a crimson cloak.
+
+019:003 Then they began to march up to Him, saying in a mocking voice,
+        "Hail King of the Jews!"  And they struck Him with the palms
+        of their hands.
+
+019:004 Once more Pilate came out and said to the Jews, "See, I am
+        bringing him out to you to let you clearly understand that I
+        find no crime in him."
+
+019:005 So Jesus came out, wearing the wreath of thorns and the
+        crimson cloak.  And Pilate said to them, "See, there is the man."
+
+019:006 As soon then as the High Priests and the officers saw Him,
+        they shouted "To the cross!  To the cross!"  "Take him
+        yourselves and crucify him," said Pilate; "for I, at any rate,
+        find no crime in him."
+
+019:007 "We," replied the Jews, "have a Law, and in accordance with that
+        Law he ought to die, for having claimed to be the Son of God."
+
+019:008 More alarmed than ever, Pilate no sooner heard these words
+        than he re-entered the Praetorium and began to question Jesus.
+
+019:009 "What is your origin?" he asked.  But Jesus gave him no answer.
+
+019:010 "Do you refuse to speak even to me?" asked Pilate; "do you
+        not know that I have it in my power either to release you
+        or to crucify you?"
+
+019:011 "You would have had no power whatever over me,"
+        replied Jesus, "had it not been granted you from above.
+        On that account he who has delivered me up to you is more
+        guilty than you are."
+
+019:012 Upon receiving this answer, Pilate was for releasing Him.
+        But the Jews kept shouting, "If you release this man,
+        you are no friend of Caesar's. Every one who sets himself up
+        as king declares himself a rebel against Caesar."
+
+019:013 On hearing this, Pilate brought Jesus out, and sat down
+        on the judge's seat in a place called the Pavement--
+        or in Hebrew, Gabbatha.
+
+019:014 It was the day of Preparation for the Passover, about six o'clock
+        in the morning.  Then he said to the Jews, "There is your king!"
+
+019:015 This caused a storm of outcries, "Away with him!  Away with him!
+        Crucify him!"  "Am I to crucify your king?"  Pilate asked.
+        "We have no king, except Caesar," answered the High Priests.
+
+019:016 Then Pilate gave Him up to them to be crucified.
+        Accordingly they took Jesus;
+
+019:017 and He went out carrying His own cross, to the place
+        called Skull-place--or, in Hebrew, Golgotha--
+
+019:018 where they nailed Him to a cross, and two others at the same time,
+        one on each side and Jesus in the middle.
+
+019:019 And Pilate wrote a notice and had it fastened to the top of
+        the cross.  It ran thus:  JESUS THE NAZARENE, THE KING OF THE JEWS.
+
+019:020 Many of the Jews read this notice, for the place where Jesus
+        was crucified was near the city, and the notice was in
+        three languages--Hebrew, Latin, and Greek.
+
+019:021 This led the Jewish High Priests to remonstrate with Pilate.
+        "You should not write `The King of the Jews,'" they said,
+        "but that he claimed to be King of the Jews."
+
+019:022 "What I have written I have written," was Pilate's answer.
+
+019:023 So the soldiers, as soon as they had crucified Jesus, took His
+        garments, including His tunic, and divided them into four parts--
+        one part for each soldier.  The tunic was without seam,
+        woven from the top in one piece.
+
+019:024 So they said to one another, "Do not let us tear it.
+        Let us draw lots for it."  This happened that the Scripture
+        might be fulfilled which says, "They shared my garments
+        among them, and drew lots for my clothing."  That was just
+        what the soldiers did.
+
+019:025 Now standing close to the cross of Jesus were His mother and His
+        mother's sister, Mary the wife of Clopas, and Mary of Magdala.
+
+019:026 So Jesus, seeing His mother, and seeing the disciple whom He
+        loved standing near, said to His mother, "Behold, your son!"
+
+019:027 Then He said to the disciple, "Behold, your mother!"
+        And from that time the disciple received her into his own home.
+
+019:028 After this, Jesus, knowing that everything was now brought
+        to an end, said--that the Scripture might be fulfilled,
+        "I am thirsty."
+
+019:029 There was a jar of wine standing there.  With this wine they
+        filled a sponge, put it on the end of a stalk of hyssop,
+        and lifted it to His mouth.
+
+019:030 As soon as Jesus had taken the wine, He said, "It is finished."
+        And then, bowing His head, He yielded up His spirit.
+
+019:031 Meanwhile the Jews, because it was the day of Preparation
+        for the Passover, and in order that the bodies might not remain
+        on the crosses during the Sabbath (for that Sabbath was one
+        of special solemnity), requested Pilate to have the legs
+        of the dying men broken, and the bodies removed.
+
+019:032 Accordingly the soldiers came and broke the legs of the first
+        man and also of the other who had been crucified with Jesus.
+
+019:033 Then they came to Jesus Himself:  but when they saw that He
+        was already dead, they refrained from breaking His legs.
+
+019:034 One of the soldiers, however, made a thrust at His side
+        with a lance, and immediately blood and water flowed out.
+
+019:035 This statement is the testimony of an eye-witness, and it is true.
+        He knows that he is telling the truth--in order that you
+        also may believe.
+
+019:036 For all this took place that the Scripture might be fulfilled
+        which declares, "Not one of His bones shall be broken."
+
+019:037 And again another Scripture says, "They shall look on Him whom
+        they have pierced."
+
+019:038 After this, Joseph of Arimathaea, who was a disciple of Jesus,
+        but for fear of the Jews a secret disciple, asked Pilate's permission
+        to carry away the body of Jesus; and Pilate gave him leave.
+        So he came and removed the body.
+
+019:039 Nicodemus too--he who at first had visited Jesus by night--
+        came bringing a mixture of myrrh and aloes, in weight about
+        seventy or eighty pounds.
+
+019:040 Taking down the body they wrapped it in linen cloths along
+        with the spices, in accordance with the Jewish mode of
+        preparing for burial.
+
+019:041 There was a garden at the place where Jesus had been crucified,
+        and in the garden a new tomb, in which no one had yet been buried.
+
+019:042 Therefore, because it was the day of Preparation for
+        the Jewish Passover, and the tomb was close at hand,
+        they put Jesus there.
+
+020:001 On the first day of the week, very early, while it was still dark,
+        Mary of Magdala came to the tomb and saw that the stone had
+        been removed from it.
+
+020:002 So she ran, as fast as she could, to find Simon Peter
+        and the other disciple--the one who was dear to Jesus--
+        and to tell them, "They have taken the Master out of the tomb,
+        and we do not know where they have put Him."
+
+020:003 Peter and the other disciple started at once to go to the tomb,
+        both of them running,
+
+020:004 but the other disciple ran faster than Peter and reached it
+        before he did.
+
+020:005 Stooping and looking in, he saw the linen cloths lying there
+        on the ground, but he did not go in.
+
+020:006 Simon Peter, however, also came, following him, and entered the tomb.
+        There on the ground he saw the cloths;
+
+020:007 and the towel, which had been placed over the face of Jesus,
+        not lying with the cloths, but folded up and put by itself.
+
+020:008 Then the other disciple, who had been the first to come to the tomb,
+        also went in and saw and was convinced.
+
+020:009 For until now they had not understood the inspired teaching,
+        that He must rise again from among the dead.
+
+020:010 Then they went away and returned home.
+
+020:011 Meanwhile Mary remained standing near the tomb, weeping aloud.
+        She did not enter the tomb, but as she wept she stooped
+        and looked in,
+
+020:012 and saw two angels clothed in white raiment, sitting one at
+        the head and one at the feet where the body of Jesus had been.
+
+020:013 They spoke to her.  "Why are you weeping?" they asked.
+        "Because," she replied, "they have taken away my Lord,
+        and I do not know where they have put him."
+
+020:014 While she was speaking, she turned round and saw Jesus
+        standing there, but did not recognize Him.
+
+020:015 "Why are you weeping?"  He asked; "who are you looking for?"
+        She, supposing that He was the gardener, replied, "Sir, if you
+        have carried him away, tell me where you have put him and I
+        will remove him."
+
+020:016 "Mary!" said Jesus.  She turned to Him.  "Rabboni!" she cried
+        in Hebrew:  the word means `Teacher!'
+
+020:017 "Do not cling to me," said Jesus, "for I have not yet ascended
+        to the Father.  But take this message to my brethren:
+        `I am ascending to my Father and your Father, to my God
+        and your God.'"
+
+020:018 Mary of Magdala came and brought word to the disciples.
+        "I have seen the Master," she said.  And she told them that He
+        had said these things to her.
+
+020:019 On that same first day of the week, when it was evening and,
+        for fear of the Jews, the doors of the house where the
+        disciples were, were locked, Jesus came and stood in their midst,
+        and said to them, "Peace be to you!"
+
+020:020 Having said this He showed them His hands and also His side;
+        and the disciples were filled with joy at seeing the Master.
+
+020:021 A second time, therefore, He said to them, "Peace be to you!
+        As the Father sent me, I also now send you."
+
+020:022 Having said this He breathed upon them and said,
+        "Receive the Holy Spirit.
+
+020:023 If you remit the sins of any persons, they remain remitted to them.
+        If you bind fast the sins of any, they remain bound."
+
+020:024 Thomas, one of the twelve--surnamed `the Twin'--was not among
+        them when Jesus came.
+
+020:025 So the rest of the disciples told him, "We have seen
+        the Master!"  His reply was, "Unless I see in his hands
+        the wound made by the nails and put my finger into the wound,
+        and put my hand into his side, I will never believe it."
+
+020:026 A week later the disciples were again in the house, and Thomas
+        was with them, when Jesus came--though the doors were locked--
+        and stood in their midst, and said, "Peace be to you."
+
+020:027 Then He said to Thomas, "Bring your finger here and feel my hands;
+        bring you hand and put it into my side; and do not be ready
+        to disbelieve but to believe."
+
+020:028 "My Lord and my God!" replied Thomas.
+
+020:029 "Because you have seen me," replied Jesus, "you have believed.
+        Blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed."
+
+020:030 There were also a great number of other signs which Jesus
+        performed in the presence of the disciples, which are not
+        recorded in this book.
+
+020:031 But these have been recorded in order that you may believe that He
+        is the Christ, the Son of God, and that, through believing,
+        you may have Life through His name.
+
+021:001 After this, Jesus again showed Himself to the disciples.
+        It was at the Lake of Tiberias.  The circumstances were as follows.
+
+021:002 Simon Peter was with Thomas, called the Twin, Nathanael of
+        Cana in Galilee, the sons of Zabdi, and two others of
+        the Master's disciples.
+
+021:003 Simon Peter said to them, "I am going fishing."  "We will go too,"
+        said they.  So they set out and went on board their boat;
+        but they caught nothing that night.
+
+021:004 When, however, day was now dawning, Jesus stood on the beach,
+        though the disciples did not know that it was Jesus.
+
+021:005 He called to them.  "Children," He said, "have you any
+        food there?"  "No," they answered.
+
+021:006 "Throw the net in on the right hand side," He said, "and you
+        will find fish."  So they threw the net in, and now they
+        could scarcely drag it along for the quantity of fish.
+
+021:007 This made the disciple whom Jesus loved say to Peter, "It is
+        the Master."  Simon Peter therefore, when he heard the words,
+        "It is the Master," drew on his fisherman's shirt--
+        for he had not been wearing it--put on his girdle, and sprang
+        into the water.
+
+021:008 But the rest of the disciples came in the small boat (for they
+        were not far from land--only about a hundred yards off),
+        dragging the net full of fish.
+
+021:009 As soon as they landed, they saw a charcoal fire burning there,
+        with fish broiling on it, and bread close by.
+
+021:010 Jesus told them to fetch some of the fish which they
+        had just caught.
+
+021:011 So Simon Peter went on board the boat and drew the net ashore
+        full of large fish, 153 in number; and yet, although there
+        were so many, the net had not broken.
+
+021:012 "Come this way and have breakfast," said Jesus.  But not one
+        of the disciples ventured to question Him as to who He was,
+        for they felt sure that it was the Master.
+
+021:013 Then Jesus came and took the bread and gave them some,
+        and the fish in the same way.
+
+021:014 This was now the third occasion on which Jesus showed Himself
+        to the disciples after He had risen from among the dead.
+
+021:015 When they had finished breakfast, Jesus asked Simon Peter, "Simon,
+        son of John, do you love me more than these others do?"
+        "Yes, Master," was his answer; "you know that you are dear to me."
+        "Then feed my lambs," replied Jesus.
+
+021:016 Again a second time He asked him, "Simon, son of John,
+        do you love me?"  "Yes, Master," he said, "you know that you
+        are dear to me."  "Then be a shepherd to my sheep," He said.
+
+021:017 A third time Jesus put the question:  "Simon, son of John,
+        am I dear to you?"  It grieved Peter that Jesus asked him
+        the third time, "Am I dear to you?"  "Master," he replied,
+        "you know everything, you can see that you are dear to me."
+        "Then feed my much-loved sheep," said Jesus.
+
+021:018 "In most solemn truth I tell you that whereas, when you were young,
+        you used to put on your girdle and walk whichever way you chose,
+        when you have grown old you will stretch out your arms
+        and some one else will put a girdle round you and carry you
+        where you have no wish to go."
+
+021:019 This He said to indicate the kind of death by which that disciple
+        would bring glory to God; and after speaking thus He said
+        to him, "Follow me."
+
+021:020 Peter turned round and noticed the disciple whom Jesus
+        loved following--the one who at the supper had leaned
+        back on His breast and had asked, "Master, who is it that
+        is betraying you?"
+
+021:021 On seeing him, Peter asked Jesus, "And, Master, what about him?"
+
+021:022 "If I desire him to remain till I come," replied Jesus,
+        "what concern is that of yours?  You, yourself, must follow me."
+
+021:023 Hence the report spread among the brethren that that disciple
+        would never die.  Yet Jesus did not say, "He is not to die,"
+        but, "If I desire him to remain till I come, what concern
+        is that of yours?"
+
+021:024 That is the disciple who gives his testimony as to these matters,
+        and has written this history; and we know that his
+        testimony is true.
+
+021:025 But there are also many other things which Jesus did--so vast
+        a number indeed that if they were all described in detail,
+        I suppose that the world itself could not contain the books
+        that would have to be written.

+phrase "Project Gutenberg" is associated) is accessed, displayed,
+performed, viewed, copied or distributed:
+
+  This eBook is for the use of anyone anywhere in the United States and

+derived from texts not protected by U.S. copyright law (does not
+contain a notice indicating that it is posted with permission of the

+1.F.
+
+1.F.1. Project Gutenberg volunteers and employees expend considerable
+effort to identify, do copyright research on, transcribe and proofread

+contain "Defects," such as, but not limited to, incomplete, inaccurate
+or corrupt data, transcription errors, a copyright or other
+intellectual property infringement, a defective or damaged disk or
+other medium, a computer virus, or computer codes that damage or
+cannot be read by your equipment.
+
+1.F.2. LIMITED WARRANTY, DISCLAIMER OF DAMAGES - Except for the "Right

+or any Project Gutenberg-tm work, (b) alteration, modification, or
+additions or deletions to any Project Gutenberg-tm work, and (c) any
+Defect you cause.
+
+Section 2. Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
+electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of
+computers including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It
+exists because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations
+from people in all walks of life.
+
+Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
+assistance they need are critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
+goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
+remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project
+Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
+and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future
+generations. To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary
+Archive Foundation and how your efforts and donations can help, see
+Sections 3 and 4 and the Foundation information page at
+www.gutenberg.org
+
+
+
+Section 3. Information about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation
+
+The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation is a non profit
+501(c)(3) educational corporation organized under the laws of the
+state of Mississippi and granted tax exempt status by the Internal
+Revenue Service. The Foundation's EIN or federal tax identification
+number is 64-6221541. Contributions to the Project Gutenberg Literary
+Archive Foundation are tax deductible to the full extent permitted by

+
+Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
+Literary Archive Foundation
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
+spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
+increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
+freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
+array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations
+($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
+status with the IRS.
+
+The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
+charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
+States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
+considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
+with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations
+where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To SEND
+DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any particular
+state visit www.gutenberg.org/donate
+
+While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
+have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
+against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
+approach us with offers to donate.
+
+International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
+any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
+outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
+
+Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
+methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other
+ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations. To
+donate, please visit: www.gutenberg.org/donate
+
+Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works.
+
+Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project
+Gutenberg-tm concept of a library of electronic works that could be
+freely shared with anyone. For forty years, he produced and
+distributed Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of
+volunteer support.
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
+editions, all of which are confirmed as not protected by copyright in
+the U.S. unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not
+necessarily keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper
+edition.
+
+Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search
+facility: www.gutenberg.org
+
+This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
+including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
+Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
+subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.

+
+Book 43 John
+001:001 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God,
+        and the Word was God.
+001:002 He was in the beginning with God.
+001:003 All things came into being through Him, and apart from Him
+        nothing that exists came into being.
+001:004 In Him was Life, and that Life was the Light of men.
+001:005 The Light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has
+        not overpowered it.
+001:006 There was a man sent from God, whose name was John.
+001:007 He came as a witness, in order that he might give testimony
+        concerning the Light--so that all might believe through him.
+001:008 He was not the Light, but he existed that he might give
+        testimony concerning the Light.
+001:009 The true Light was that which illumines every man by its coming
+        into the world.
+001:010 He was in the world, and the world came into existence through Him,
+        and the world did not recognize Him.
+001:011 He came to the things that were His own, and His own people
+        gave Him no welcome.
+001:012 But all who have received Him, to them--that is, to those who
+        trust in His name--He has given the privilege of becoming
+        children of God;
+001:013 who were begotten as such not by human descent, nor through
+        an impulse of their own nature, nor through the will of a
+        human father, but from God.
+001:014 And the Word came in the flesh, and lived for a time in our midst,
+        so that we saw His glory--the glory as of the Father's only Son,
+        sent from His presence.  He was full of grace and truth.
+001:015 John gave testimony concerning Him and cried aloud, saying,
+        "This is He of whom I said, `He who is coming after me has
+        been put before me,' for He was before me."
+001:016 For He it is from whose fulness we have all received,
+        and grace upon grace.
+001:017 For the Law was given through Moses; grace and truth came
+        through Jesus Christ.
+001:018 No human eye has ever seen God:  the only Son, who is in
+        the Father's bosom--He has made Him known.
+001:019 This also is John's testimony, when the Jews sent to him
+        a deputation of Priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask
+        him who he was.
+001:020 He avowed--he did not conceal the truth, but avowed, "I am
+        not the Christ."
+001:021 "What then?" they inquired; "are you Elijah?"  "I am not," he said.
+        "Are you the Prophet?"  "No," he answered.
+001:022 So they pressed the question.  "Who are you?"
+        they said--"that we may take an answer to those who sent us.
+        What account do you give of yourself?"
+001:023 "I am the voice," he replied, "of one crying aloud,
+        `Make straight the Lord's way in the Desert,' fulfilling the words
+        of the Prophet Isaiah."
+001:024 They were Pharisees who had been sent.
+001:025 Again they questioned him.  "Why then do you baptize," they said,
+        "if you are neither the Christ nor Elijah nor the Prophet?"
+001:026 "I baptize in water only," John answered, "but in your midst
+        stands One whom you do not know--
+001:027 He who is to come after me, and whose sandal-strap I am not
+        worthy to unfasten."
+001:028 This conversation took place at Bethany beyond the Jordan,
+        where John was baptizing.
+001:029 The next day John saw Jesus coming towards him and exclaimed,
+        "Look, that is the Lamb of God who is to take away the sin
+        of the world!
+001:030 This is He about whom I said, `After me is to come One who has
+        been put before me, because He was before me.'
+001:031 I did not yet know Him; but that He may be openly shown to Israel
+        is the reason why I have come baptizing in water."
+001:032 John also gave testimony by stating:  "I have seen the Spirit
+        coming down like a dove out of Heaven; and it remained upon Him.
+001:033 I did not yet know Him, but He who sent me to baptize in water
+        said to me, "`The One on whom you see the Spirit coming down,
+        and remaining, He it is who baptizes in the Holy Spirit.'
+001:034 "This I have seen, and I have become a witness that He is
+        the Son of God."
+001:035 Again the next day John was standing with two of his disciples,
+001:036 when he saw Jesus passing by, and said, "Look! that is
+        the Lamb of God!"
+001:037 The two disciples heard his exclamation, and they followed Jesus.
+001:038 Then Jesus turned round, and seeing them following He asked them,
+        "What is your wish?"  "Rabbi," they replied--`Rabbi'
+        means `Teacher'--"where are you staying?"
+001:039 "Come and you shall see," He said.  So they went and saw where He
+        was staying, and they remained and spent that day with Him.
+        It was then about ten o'clock in the morning.
+001:040 Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, was one of the two who heard
+        John's exclamation and followed Jesus.
+001:041 He first found his own brother Simon, and said to him,
+        "We have found the Messiah!"--that is to say, the Anointed One.
+001:042 He brought him to Jesus.  Jesus looked at him and said,
+        "You are Simon, son of John:  you shall be called Cephas"--
+        that is to say, Peter (or `Rock').
+001:043 The next day, having decided to leave Bethany and go
+        into Galilee, Jesus found Philip, and invited him to follow Him.
+001:044 (Now Philip came from Bethsaida, the same town as Andrew and Peter.)
+001:045 Then Philip found Nathanael, and said to him, "We have
+        found him about whom Moses in the Law wrote, as well as
+        the Prophets--Jesus, the son of Joseph, a man of Nazareth."
+001:046 "Can anything good come out of Nazareth?" replied Nathanael.
+        "Come and see," said Philip.
+001:047 Jesus saw Nathanael approaching, and said of him, "Look! here
+        is a true Israelite, in whom there is no deceitfulness!"
+001:048 "How do you know me?"  Nathanael asked.  "Before Philip called you,"
+        said Jesus, "when you were under the fig-tree I saw you."
+001:049 "Rabbi," cried Nathanael, "you are the Son of God,
+        you are Israel's King!"
+001:050 "Because I said to you, `I saw you under the fig-tree,'"
+        replied Jesus, "do you believe?  You shall see greater
+        things than that."
+001:051 "I tell you all in most solemn truth," He added, "that you
+        shall see Heaven opened wide, and God's angels going up,
+        and coming down to the Son of Man."
+002:001 Two days later there was a wedding at Cana in Galilee,
+        and the mother of Jesus was there,
+002:002 and Jesus also was invited and His disciples.
+002:003 Now the wine ran short; whereupon the mother of Jesus said
+        to Him, "They have no wine."
+002:004 "Leave the matter in my hands," He replied; "the time for me
+        to act has not yet come."
+002:005 His mother said to the attendants, "Whatever he tells you
+        to do, do it."
+002:006 Now there were six stone jars standing there (in accordance
+        with the Jewish regulations for purification), each large
+        enough to hold twenty gallons or more.
+002:007 Jesus said to the attendants, "Fill the jars with water."
+        And they filled them to the brim.
+002:008 Then He said, "Now, take some out, and carry it to the President
+        of the feast."
+002:009 So they carried some to him.  And no sooner had the President
+        tasted the water now turned into wine, than--not knowing where it
+        came from, though the attendants who had drawn the water knew--
+        he called to the bridegroom
+002:010 and said to him, "It is usual to put on the good wine first,
+        and when people have drunk freely, then that which is inferior.
+        But you have kept the good wine till now."
+002:011 This, the first of His miracles, Jesus performed at Cana
+        in Galilee, and thus displayed His glorious power; and His
+        disciples believed in Him.
+002:012 Afterwards He went down to Capernaum--He, and His mother,
+        and His brothers, and His disciples; and they made a
+        short stay there.
+002:013 But the Jewish Passover was approaching, and for this Jesus
+        went up to Jerusalem.
+002:014 And He found in the Temple the dealers in cattle and sheep
+        and in pigeons, and the money-changers sitting there.
+002:015 So He plaited a whip of rushes, and drove all--both sheep
+        and bullocks--out of the Temple.  The small coin of the brokers
+        He upset on the ground and overturned their tables.
+002:016 And to the pigeon-dealers He said, "Take these things away.
+        Do not turn my Father's house into a market."
+002:017 This recalled to His disciples the words of Scripture, "My zeal
+        for Thy House will consume me."
+002:018 So the Jews asked Him, "What proof of your authority do you
+        exhibit to us, seeing that you do these things?"
+002:019 "Demolish this Sanctuary," said Jesus, "and in three days I
+        will rebuild it."
+002:020 "It has taken forty-six years," replied the Jews, "to build
+        this Sanctuary, and will you rebuild it in three days?"
+002:021 But He was speaking of the Sanctuary of His body.
+002:022 When however He had risen from among the dead, His disciples
+        recollected that He had said this; and they believed
+        the Scripture and the teaching which Jesus had given them.
+002:023 Now when He was in Jerusalem, at the Festival of the Passover,
+        many became believers in Him through watching the miracles
+        He performed.
+002:024 But for His part, Jesus did not trust Himself to them,
+        because He knew them all,
+002:025 and did not need any one's testimony concerning a man,
+        for He of Himself knew what was in the man.
+003:001 Now there was one of the Pharisees whose name was Nicodemus--
+        a ruler among the Jews.
+003:002 He came to Jesus by night and said, "Rabbi, we know that you
+        are a teacher from God; for no one can do these miracles
+        which you are doing, unless God is with him.
+003:003 "In most solemn truth I tell you," answered Jesus, "that unless
+        a man is born anew he cannot see the Kingdom of God."
+003:004 "How is it possible," Nicodemus asked, "for a man to be born
+        when he is old?  Can he a second time enter his mother's womb
+        and be born?"
+003:005 "In most solemn truth I tell you," replied Jesus, "that unless
+        a man is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter
+        the Kingdom of God.
+003:006 Whatever has been born of the flesh is flesh, and whatever
+        has been born of the Spirit is spirit.
+003:007 Do not be astonished at my telling you, `You must all
+        be born anew.'
+003:008 The wind blows where it chooses, and you hear its sound,
+        but you do not know where it comes from or where it is going.
+        So is it with every one who has been born of the Spirit."
+003:009 "How is all this possible?" asked Nicodemus.
+003:010 "Are you," replied Jesus, "`the Teacher of Israel,' and yet
+        do you not understand these things?
+003:011 In most solemn truth I tell you that we speak what we know,
+        and give testimony of that of which we were eye-witnesses,
+        and yet you all reject our testimony.
+003:012 If I have told you earthly things and none of you believe me,
+        how will you believe me if I tell you of things in Heaven?
+003:013 There is no one who has gone up to Heaven, but there is One
+        who has come down from Heaven, namely the Son of Man whose
+        home is in Heaven.
+003:014 And just as Moses lifted high the serpent in the Desert,
+        so must the Son of Man be lifted up,
+003:015 in order that every one who trusts in Him may have the Life
+        of the Ages."
+003:016 For so greatly did God love the world that He gave His only Son,
+        that every one who trusts in Him may not perish but may have
+        the Life of Ages.
+003:017 For God did not send His Son into the world to judge the world,
+        but that the world might be saved through Him.
+003:018 He who trusts in Him does not come up for judgement.
+        He who does not trust has already received sentence, because he has
+        not his trust resting on the name of God's only Son.
+003:019 And this is the test by which men are judged--the Light has
+        come into the world, and men loved the darkness more than they
+        loved the Light, because their deeds were wicked.
+003:020 For every wrongdoer hates the light, and does not come to the light,
+        for fear his actions should be exposed and condemned.
+003:021 But he who does what is honest and right comes to the light,
+        in order that his actions may be plainly shown to have been
+        done in God.
+003:022 After this Jesus and His disciples went into Judaea;
+        and there He made a stay in company with them and baptized.
+003:023 And John too was baptizing at Aenon, near Salim, because there were
+        many pools of water there; and people came and received baptism.
+003:024 (For John was not yet in prison.)
+003:025 As the result, a discussion having arisen on the part of John's
+        disciples with a Jew about purification,
+003:026 they came to John and reported to him, "Rabbi, he who was
+        with you on the other side of the Jordan and to whom you
+        bore testimony is now baptizing, and great numbers of people
+        are resorting to him."
+003:027 "A man cannot obtain anything," replied John, "unless it has
+        been granted to him from Heaven.
+003:028 You yourselves can bear witness to my having said, `I am not
+        the Christ,' but `I am His appointed forerunner.'
+003:029 He who has the bride is the bridegroom; and the bridegroom's
+        friend who stands by his side and listens to him,
+        rejoices heartily on account of the bridegroom's happiness.
+        Therefore this joy of mine is now complete.
+003:030 He must grow greater, but I must grow less.
+003:031 He who comes from above is above all.  He whose origin
+        is from the earth is not only himself from the earth,
+        his teaching also is from the earth.  He who comes from Heaven
+        is above all.
+003:032 What He has seen and heard, to that He bears witness;
+        but His testimony no one receives.
+003:033 Any man who has received His testimony has solemnly declared
+        that God is true.
+003:034 For He whom God has sent speaks God's words; for God does
+        not give the Spirit with limitations."
+003:035 The Father loves the Son and has entrusted everything
+        to His hands.
+003:036 He who believes in the Son has the Life of the Ages;
+        he who disobeys the Son will not enter into Life, but God's
+        anger remains upon him.
+004:001 Now as soon as the Master was aware that the Pharisees
+        had heard it said, "Jesus is gaining and baptizing more
+        disciples than John"--
+004:002 though Jesus Himself did not baptize them, but His disciples did--
+004:003 He left Judaea and returned to Galilee.
+004:004 His road lay through Samaria,
+004:005 and so He came to Sychar, a town in Samaria near the piece
+        of land that Jacob gave to his son Joseph.
+004:006 Jacob's Well was there:  and accordingly Jesus,
+        tired out with His journey, sat down by the well to rest.
+        It was about six o'clock in the evening.
+004:007 Presently there came a woman of Samaria to draw water.
+        Jesus asked her to give Him some water;
+004:008 for His disciples were gone to the town to buy provisions.
+004:009 "How is it," replied the woman, "that a Jew like you
+        asks me, who am a woman and a Samaritan, for water?"
+        (For Jews have no dealings with Samaritans.)
+004:010 "If you had known God's free gift," replied Jesus, "and who it
+        is that said to you, `Give me some water,' you would have
+        asked Him, and He would have given you living water."
+004:011 "Sir," she said, "you have nothing to draw with, and the well
+        is deep; so where can you get the living water from?
+004:012 Are you greater than our forefather Jacob, who gave us the well,
+        and himself drank from it, as did also his sons and his cattle?"
+004:013 "Every one," replied Jesus, "who drinks any of this water
+        will be thirsty again;
+004:014 but whoever drinks any of the water that I shall give him
+        will never, never thirst.  But the water that I shall give
+        him will become a fountain within him of water springing up
+        for the Life of the Ages."
+004:015 "Sir," said the woman, "give me that water, that I may never
+        be thirsty, nor continually come all the way here to draw
+        from the well."
+004:016 "Go and call your husband," said Jesus; "and come back."
+004:017 "I have no husband," she replied.  "You rightly say that you
+        have no husband," said Jesus;
+004:018 "for you have had five husbands, and the man you have at
+        present is not your husband.  You have spoken the truth
+        in saying that."
+004:019 "Sir," replied the woman, "I see that you are a Prophet.
+004:020 Our forefathers worshipped on this mountain, but you Jews say
+        that the place where people must worship is in Jerusalem."
+004:021 "Believe me," said Jesus, "the time is coming when you will
+        worship the Father neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem.
+004:022 You worship One of whom you know nothing.  We worship One whom
+        we know; for salvation comes from the Jews.
+004:023 But a time is coming--nay, has already come--when the true
+        worshippers will worship the Father with true spiritual worship;
+        for indeed the Father desires such worshippers.
+004:024 God is Spirit; and those who worship Him must bring Him
+        true spiritual worship."
+004:025 "I know," replied the woman, "that Messiah is coming--`the Christ,'
+        as He is called.  When He has come, He will tell us everything."
+004:026 "I am He," said Jesus--"I who am now talking to you."
+004:027 Just then His disciples came, and were surprised to find Him
+        talking with a woman.  Yet not one of them asked Him, "What is
+        your wish?" or "Why are you talking with her?"
+004:028 The woman however, leaving her pitcher, went away to the town,
+        and called the people.
+004:029 "Come," she said, "and see a man who has told me everything
+        I have ever done.  Can this be the Christ, do you think?"
+004:030 They left the town and set out to go to Him.
+004:031 Meanwhile the disciples were urging Jesus.  "Rabbi," they said,
+        "eat something."
+004:032 "I have food to eat," He replied, "of which you do not know."
+004:033 So the disciples began questioning one another.  "Can it be,"
+        they said, "that some one has brought Him something to eat?"
+004:034 "My food," said Jesus, "is to be obedient to Him who sent me,
+        and fully to accomplish His work.
+004:035 Do you not say, `It wants four months yet to the harvest'?
+        But look round, I tell you, and observe these plains--
+        they are already ripe for the sickle.
+004:036 The reaper gets pay and gathers in a crop in preparation
+        for the Life of the Ages, that so the sower and the reapers
+        may rejoice together.
+004:037 For it is in this that you see the real meaning of the saying,
+        `The sower is one person, and the reaper is another.'
+004:038 I sent you to reap a harvest which is not the result of your
+        own labours.  Others have laboured, and you are getting
+        benefit from their labours."
+004:039 Of the Samaritan population of that town a good many believed
+        in Him because of the woman's statement when she declared,
+        "He has told me all that I have ever done."
+004:040 When however the Samaritans came to Him, they asked Him on
+        all sides to stay with them; and He stayed there two days.
+004:041 Then a far larger number of people believed because of
+        His own words,
+004:042 and they said to the woman, "We no longer believe in Him simply
+        because of your statements; for we have now heard for ourselves,
+        and we know that this man really is the Saviour of the world."
+004:043 After the two days He departed, and went into Galilee;
+004:044 though Jesus Himself declared that a Prophet has no honour
+        in his own country.
+004:045 When however He reached Galilee, the Galilaeans welcomed
+        Him eagerly, having been eye-witnesses of all that He had
+        done in Jerusalem at the Festival; for they also had been
+        to the Festival.
+004:046 So He came once more to Cana in Galilee, where He had made
+        the water into wine.  Now there was a certain officer
+        of the King's court whose son was ill at Capernaum.
+004:047 Having heard that Jesus had come from Judaea to Galilee,
+        he came to Him and begged Him to go down and cure his son;
+        for he was at the point of death.
+004:048 "Unless you and others see miracles and marvels," said Jesus,
+        "nothing will induce you to believe."
+004:049 "Sir," pleaded the officer, "come down before my child dies."
+004:050 "You may return home," replied Jesus; "your son has recovered."
+        He believed the words of Jesus, and started back home;
+004:051 and he was already on his way down when his servants met him
+        and told him that his son was alive and well.
+004:052 So he inquired of them at what hour he had shown improvement.
+        "Yesterday, about seven o'clock," they replied,
+        "the fever left him."
+004:053 Then the father recollected that that was the time at
+        which Jesus had said to him, "Your son has recovered,"
+        and he and his whole household became believers.
+004:054 This is the second miracle that Jesus performed, after coming
+        from Judaea into Galilee.
+005:001 After this there was a Festival of the Jews, and Jesus went
+        up to Jerusalem.
+005:002 Now there is in Jerusalem near the Sheep Gate a pool,
+        called in Hebrew `Bethesda.' It has five arcades.
+005:003 In these there used to lie a great number of sick persons,
+        and of people who were blind or lame or paralyzed.
+005:004 []
+005:005 And there was one man there who had been an invalid
+        for thirty-eight years.
+005:006 Jesus saw him lying there, and knowing that he had been a long
+        time in that condition, He asked him, "Do you wish to have
+        health and strength?"
+005:007 "Sir," replied the sufferer, "I have no one to put me into
+        the pool when the water is moved; but while I am coming
+        some one else steps down before me."
+005:008 "Rise," said Jesus, "take up your mat and walk."
+005:009 Instantly the man was restored to perfect health, and he took
+        up his mat and began to walk.
+005:010 That day was a Sabbath.  So the Jews said to the man who had
+        been cured, "It is the Sabbath:  you must not carry your mat."
+005:011 "He who cured me," he replied, "said to me, `Take up your
+        mat and walk.'"
+005:012 "Who is it," they asked, "that said to you, `Take up your
+        mat and walk'?"
+005:013 But the man who had been cured did not know who it was;
+        for Jesus had passed out unnoticed, there being a crowd
+        in the place.
+005:014 Afterwards Jesus found him in the Temple and said to him,
+        "You are now restored to health.  Do not sin any more,
+        or a worse thing may befall you."
+005:015 The man went and told the Jews that it was Jesus who had restored
+        him to health;
+005:016 and on this account the Jews began to persecute Jesus--
+        because He did these things on the Sabbath.
+005:017 His reply to their accusation was, "My Father works unceasingly,
+        and so do I."
+005:018 On this account then the Jews were all the more eager to put
+        Him to death--because He not only broke the Sabbath,
+        but also spoke of God as being in a special sense His Father,
+        thus putting Himself on a level with God.
+005:019 "In most solemn truth I tell you," replied Jesus, "that the Son
+        can do nothing of Himself--He can only do what He sees
+        the Father doing; for whatever He does, that the Son does
+        in like manner.
+005:020 For the Father loves the Son and reveals to Him all that He Himself
+        is doing.  And greater deeds than these will He reveal to Him,
+        in order that you may wonder.
+005:021 For just as the Father awakens the dead and gives them life,
+        so the Son also gives life to whom He wills.
+005:022 The Father indeed does not judge any one, but He has entrusted
+        all judgement to the Son,
+005:023 that all may honour the Son even as they honour the Father.
+        The man who withholds honour from the Son withholds honour
+        from the Father who sent Him.
+005:024 "In most solemn truth I tell you that he who listens to my
+        teaching and believes Him who sent me, has the Life of the Ages,
+        and does not come under judgement, but has passed over out
+        of death into Life.
+005:025 "In most solemn truth I tell you that a time is coming--
+        nay, has already come--when the dead will hear the voice
+        of the Son of God, and those who hear it will live.
+005:026 For just as the Father has life in Himself, so He has also given
+        to the Son to have life in Himself.
+005:027 And He has conferred on Him authority to act as Judge,
+        because He is the Son of Man.
+005:028 Wonder not at this.  For a time is coming when all who are
+        in the graves will hear His voice and will come forth--
+005:029 they who have done what is right to the resurrection of Life,
+        and they whose actions have been evil to the resurrection
+        of judgement.
+005:030 "I can of my own self do nothing.  As I am bidden, so I judge;
+        and mine is a just judgement, because it is not my own will
+        that guides me, but the will of Him who sent me.
+005:031 "If I give testimony concerning myself, my testimony
+        cannot be accepted.
+005:032 There is Another who gives testimony concerning me, and I know
+        that the testimony is true which He offers concerning me.
+005:033 "You sent to John, and he both was and still is a witness
+        to the truth.
+005:034 But the testimony on my behalf which I accept is not from man;
+        though I say all this in order that you may be saved.
+005:035 He was the lamp that burned and shone, and for a time you
+        were willing to be gladdened by his light.
+005:036 "But the testimony which I have is weightier than that of John;
+        for the work the Father has assigned to me for me to
+        bring it to completion--the very work which I am doing--
+        affords testimony concerning me that the Father has sent me.
+005:037 And the Father who sent me, *He* has given testimony concerning me.
+        None of you have ever either heard His voice or seen what
+        He is like.
+005:038 Nor have you His word dwelling within you, for you refuse
+        to believe Him whom *He* has sent.
+005:039 "You search the Scriptures, because you suppose that in them
+        you will find the Life of the Ages; and it is those Scriptures
+        that yield testimony concerning me;
+005:040 and yet you are unwilling to come to me that you may have Life.
+005:041 "I do not accept glory from man,
+005:042 but I know you well, and I know that in your hearts you do
+        not really love God.
+005:043 I have come as my Father's representative, and you do not
+        receive me.  If some one else comes representing only himself,
+        him you will receive.
+005:044 How is it possible for you to believe, while you receive glory
+        from one another and have no desire for the glory that comes
+        from the only God?
+005:045 "Do not suppose that I will accuse you to the Father.
+        There is one who accuses you, namely Moses, on whom
+        your hope rests.
+005:046 For if you believe Moses, you would believe me;
+        for he wrote about me.
+005:047 But if you disbelieve his writings, how are you to believe my words?"
+006:001 After this Jesus went away across the Lake of Galilee (that is,
+        the Lake of Tiberias).
+006:002 A vast multitude followed Him, because they witnessed the miracles
+        on the sick which He was constantly performing.
+006:003 Then Jesus went up the hill, and sat there with His disciples.
+006:004 The Jewish Festival, the Passover, was at hand.
+006:005 And when He looked round and saw an immense crowd coming
+        towards Him, He said to Philip, "Where shall we buy bread
+        for all these people to eat?"
+006:006 He said this to put Philip to the test, for He Himself knew
+        what He was going to do.
+006:007 "Seven pounds' worth of bread," replied Philip, "is not enough
+        for them all to get even a scanty meal."
+006:008 One of His disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter's brother,
+        said to Him,
+006:009 "There is a boy here with five barley loaves and a couple of fish:
+        but what is that among so many?"
+006:010 "Make the people sit down," said Jesus.  The ground was
+        covered with thick grass; so they sat down, the adult men
+        numbering about 5,000.
+006:011 Then Jesus took the loaves, and after giving thanks He
+        distributed them to those who were resting on the ground;
+        and also the fish in like manner--as much as they desired.
+006:012 When all were fully satisfied, He said to His disciples,
+        "Gather up the broken portions that remain over, so that
+        nothing be lost."
+006:013 Accordingly they gathered them up; and with the fragments
+        of the five barley loaves--the broken portions that remained
+        over after they had done eating--they filled twelve baskets.
+006:014 Thereupon the people, having seen the miracle He had performed,
+        said, "This is indeed the Prophet who was to come into the world."
+006:015 Perceiving, however, that they were about to come and carry
+        Him off by force to make Him a king, Jesus withdrew again up
+        the hill alone by Himself.
+006:016 When evening came on, His disciples went down to the Lake.
+006:017 There they got on board a boat, and pushed off to cross
+        the Lake to Capernaum.  By this time it had become dark,
+        and Jesus had not yet joined them.
+006:018 The Lake also was getting rough, because a strong wind was blowing.
+006:019 When, however, they had rowed three or four miles, they saw
+        Jesus walking on the water and coming near the boat.
+006:020 They were terrified; but He called to them.  "It is I," He said,
+        "do not be afraid."
+006:021 Then they were willing to take Him on board; and in a moment
+        the boat reached the shore at the point to which they were going.
+006:022 Next morning the crowd who were still standing about on
+        the other side of the Lake found that there had been but one
+        small boat there, and they had seen that Jesus did not go
+        on board with His disciples, but that His disciples went
+        away without Him.
+006:023 Yet a number of small boats came from Tiberias to the neighbourhood
+        of the place where they had eaten the bread after the Lord
+        had given thanks.
+006:024 When however the crowd saw that neither Jesus nor His disciples
+        were there, they themselves also took boats and came to Capernaum
+        to look for Jesus.
+006:025 So when they had crossed the Lake and had found Him,
+        they asked Him, "Rabbi, when did you come here?"
+006:026 "In most solemn truth I tell you," replied Jesus, "that you
+        are searching for me not because you have seen miracles,
+        but because you ate the loaves and had a hearty meal.
+006:027 Bestow your pains not on the food which perishes,
+        but on the food that remains unto the Life of the Ages--
+        that food which will be the Son of Man's gift to you;
+        for on Him the Father, God, has set His seal."
+006:028 "What are we to do," they asked, "in order to carry out the things
+        that God requires?"
+006:029 "This," replied Jesus, "is above all the thing that God requires--
+        that you should be believers in Him whom He has sent."
+006:030 "What miracle then," they asked, "do you perform for us to see
+        and become believers in you?  What do you *do*?
+006:031 Our forefathers ate the manna in the Desert, as it is written,
+        `He gave them bread out of Heaven to eat'."
+006:032 "In most solemn truth I tell you," replied Jesus, "that Moses
+        did not give you the bread out of Heaven, but my Father
+        is giving you the bread--the true bread--out of Heaven.
+006:033 For God's bread is that which comes down out of Heaven and gives
+        Life to the world."
+006:034 "Sir," they said, "always give us that bread."
+006:035 "I am the bread of Life," replied Jesus; "he who comes to me shall
+        never hunger, and he who believes in me shall never, never thirst.
+006:036 But it is as I have said to you:  you have seen me and yet
+        you do not believe.
+006:037 Every one whom the Father gives me will come to me, and him
+        who comes to me I will never on any account drive away.
+006:038 For I have left Heaven and have come down to earth not to seek
+        my own pleasure, but to do the will of Him who sent me.
+006:039 And this is the will of Him who sent me, that of all that He
+        has given me I should lose nothing, but should raise it
+        to life on the last day.
+006:040 For this is my Father's will, that every one who fixes his gaze
+        on the Son of God and believes in Him should have the Life
+        of the Ages, and I will raise him to life on the last day."
+006:041 Now the Jews began to find fault about Him because of His
+        claiming to be the bread which came down out of Heaven.
+006:042 They kept asking, "Is not this man Joseph's son?
+        Is he not Jesus, whose father and mother we know?  What does
+        he mean by now saying, `I have come down out of Heaven'?"
+006:043 "Do not thus find fault among yourselves," replied Jesus;
+006:044 "no one can come to me unless the Father who sent me draws him;
+        then I will raise him to life on the last day.
+006:045 It stands written in the Prophets, `And they shall all of them
+        be taught by God'.  Every one who listens to the Father
+        and learns from Him comes to me.
+006:046 No one has ever seen the Father--except Him who is from God.
+        He has seen the Father.
+006:047 "In most solemn truth I tell you that he who believes has
+        the Life of the Ages.
+006:048 I am the bread of Life.
+006:049 Your forefathers ate the manna in the Desert, and they died.
+006:050 Here is the bread that comes down out of Heaven that a man
+        may eat it and not die.
+006:051 I am the living bread come down out of Heaven.
+        If a man eats this bread, he shall live for ever.
+        Moreover the bread which I will give is my flesh given
+        for the life of the world."
+006:052 This led to an angry debate among the Jews.  "How can this man,"
+        they argued, "give us his flesh to eat?"
+006:053 "In most solemn truth I tell you," said Jesus, "that unless
+        you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink His blood,
+        you have no Life in you.
+006:054 He who eats my flesh and drinks my blood has the Life of the Ages,
+        and I will raise him up on the last day.
+006:055 For my flesh is true food, and my blood is true drink.
+006:056 He who eats my flesh and drinks my blood remains in union with me,
+        and I remain in union with him.
+006:057 As the ever-living Father has sent me, and I live because of
+        the Father, so also he who eats me will live because of me.
+006:058 This is the bread which came down out of Heaven; it is unlike
+        that which your forefathers ate--for they ate and yet died.
+        He who eats this bread shall live for ever."
+006:059 Jesus said all this in the synagogue while teaching at Capernaum.
+006:060 Many therefore of His disciples, when they heard it, said,
+        "This is hard to accept.  Who can listen to such teaching?"
+006:061 But, knowing in Himself that His disciples were dissatisfied
+        about it, Jesus asked them,
+006:062 "Does this seem incredible to you?  What then if you were to see
+        the Son of Man ascending again where He was before?
+006:063 It is the spirit which gives Life.  The flesh confers no
+        benefit whatever.  The words I have spoken to you are spirit
+        and are Life.
+006:064 But there are some of you who do not believe."  For Jesus
+        knew from the beginning who those were that did not believe,
+        and who it was that would betray Him.
+006:065 So He added, "That is why I told you that no one can come
+        to me unless it be granted him by the Father."
+006:066 Thereupon many of His disciples left Him and went away,
+        and no longer associated with Him.
+006:067 Jesus therefore appealed to the Twelve.  "Will you go also?"
+        He asked.
+006:068 "Master," replied Simon Peter, "to whom shall we go?
+        Your teachings tell us of the Life of the Ages.
+006:069 And we have come to believe and know that *you* are indeed
+        the Holy One of God."
+006:070 "Did not I choose you--the Twelve?" said Jesus, "and even of you
+        one is a devil."
+006:071 He alluded to Judas, the son of Simon the Iscariot.
+        For he it was who, though one of the Twelve, was afterwards
+        to betray Him.
+007:001 After this Jesus moved from place to place in Galilee.
+        He would not go about in Judaea, because the Jews were seeking
+        an opportunity to kill Him.
+007:002 But the Jewish Festival of the Tent-Pitching was approaching.
+007:003 So His brothers said to Him, "Leave these parts and go into Judaea,
+        that not only we but your disciples also may witness the miracles
+        which you perform.
+007:004 For no one acts in secret, desiring all the while to be
+        himself known publicly.  Since you are doing these things,
+        show yourself openly to the world."
+007:005 For even His brothers were not believers in Him.
+007:006 "My time," replied Jesus, "has not yet come, but for you any
+        time is suitable.
+007:007 It is impossible for the world to hate you; but me it does hate,
+        because I give testimony concerning it that its conduct is evil.
+007:008 As for you, go up to the Festival.  I do not now go up
+        to this Festival, because my time is not yet fully come."
+007:009 Such was His answer, and He remained in Galilee.
+007:010 When however His brothers had gone up to the Festival,
+        then He also went up, not openly, but as it were privately.
+007:011 Meanwhile the Jews at the Festival were looking for Him
+        and were inquiring, "Where is he?"
+007:012 Among the mass of the people there was much muttered debate
+        about Him.  Some said, "He is a good man."  Others said, "Not so:
+        he is imposing on the people."
+007:013 Yet for fear of the Jews no one spoke out boldly about Him.
+007:014 But when the Festival was already half over, Jesus went up
+        to the Temple and commenced teaching.
+007:015 The Jews were astonished.  "How does this man know anything
+        of books," they said, "although he has never been at any
+        of the schools?"
+007:016 Jesus answered their question by saying, "My teaching does
+        not belong to me, but comes from Him who sent me.
+007:017 If any one is willing to do His will, he shall know about
+        the teaching, whether it is from God or originates with me.
+007:018 The man whose teaching originates with himself aims at his own glory.
+        He who aims at the glory of Him who sent him teaches the truth,
+        and there is no deception in him.
+007:019 Did not Moses give you the Law?  And yet not a man of you
+        obeys the Law.  Why do you want to kill me?"
+007:020 "You are possessed by a demon," replied the crowd; "no one wants
+        to kill you."
+007:021 "One deed I have done," replied Jesus, "and you are all
+        full of wonder.
+007:022 Consider therefore.  Moses gave you the rite of circumcision
+        (not that it began with Moses, but with your earlier forefathers),
+        and even on a Sabbath day you circumcise a child.
+007:023 If a child is circumcised even on a Sabbath day, are you bitter
+        against me because I have restored a man to perfect health
+        on a Sabbath day?
+007:024 Do not form superficial judgements, but form the judgements
+        that are just."
+007:025 Some however of the people of Jerusalem said, "Is not this
+        the man they are wanting to kill?
+007:026 But here he is, speaking openly and boldly, and they say nothing
+        to him!  Can the Rulers really have ascertained that this
+        man is the Christ?
+007:027 And yet we know this man, and we know where he is from;
+        but as for the Christ, when He comes, no one can tell where
+        He is from."
+007:028 Jesus therefore, while teaching in the Temple, cried aloud,
+        and said, "Yes, you know me, and you know where I am from.
+        And yet I have not come of my own accord; but there is One who has
+        sent me, an Authority indeed, of whom you have no knowledge.
+007:029 I know Him, because I came from Him, and He sent me."
+007:030 On hearing this they wanted to arrest Him; yet not a hand
+        was laid on Him, because His time had not yet come.
+007:031 But from among the crowd a large number believed in Him.
+        "When the Christ comes," they said, "will He perform more
+        miracles than this teacher has performed?"
+007:032 The Pharisees heard the people thus expressing their various
+        doubts about Him, and the High Priests and the Pharisees sent
+        some officers to apprehend Him.
+007:033 So Jesus said, "Still for a short time I am with you,
+        and then I go my way to Him who sent me.
+007:034 You will look for me and will not find me, and where I am
+        you cannot come."
+007:035 The Jews therefore said to one another, "Where is he about
+        to betake himself, so that we shall not find him?
+        Will he betake himself to the Dispersion among the Gentiles,
+        and teach the Gentiles?
+007:036 What do those words of his mean, `You will look for me,
+        but will not find me, and where I am you cannot come'?"
+007:037 On the last day of the Festival--the great day--Jesus stood
+        up and cried aloud.  "Whoever is thirsty," He said, "let him
+        come to me and drink.
+007:038 He who believes in me, from within him--as the Scripture has said--
+        rivers of living water shall flow."
+007:039 He referred to the Spirit which those who believed in Him
+        were to receive; for the Spirit was not bestowed as yet,
+        because Jesus had not yet been glorified.
+007:040 After listening to these discourses, some of the crowd began
+        to say, "This is beyond doubt the Prophet."
+007:041 Others said, "He is the Christ."  But others again, "Not so,
+        for is the Christ to come from Galilee?
+007:042 Has not the Scripture declared that the Christ is to come
+        of the family of David and from Bethlehem, David's village?"
+007:043 So there was a violent dissension among the people on His account.
+007:044 Some of them wanted at once to arrest Him, but no one laid
+        hands upon Him.
+007:045 Meanwhile the officers returned to the High Priests and Pharisees,
+        who asked them, "Why have you not brought him?"
+007:046 "No mere man has ever spoken as this man speaks,"
+        said the officers.
+007:047 "Are *you* deluded too?" replied the Pharisees;
+007:048 "has any one of the Rulers or of the Pharisees believed in him?
+007:049 But this rabble who understand nothing about the Law are accursed!"
+007:050 Nicodemus interposed--he who had formerly gone to Jesus,
+        being himself one of them.
+007:051 "Does our Law," he asked, "judge a man without first hearing
+        what he has to say and ascertaining what his conduct is?"
+007:052 "Do you also come from Galilee?" they asked in reply.
+        "Search and see for yourself that no Prophet is
+        of Galilaean origin."
+007:053 [So they went away to their several homes;
+008:001 but Jesus went to the Mount of Olives.
+008:002 At break of day however He returned to the Temple, and there
+        the people came to Him in crowds.  He seated Himself;
+008:003 and was teaching them when the Scribes and the Pharisees brought
+        to Him a woman who had been found committing adultery.
+        They made her stand in the centre of the court, and they put
+        the case to Him.
+008:004 "Rabbi," they said, "this woman has been found in the very act
+        of committing adultery.
+008:005 Now, in the Law, Moses has ordered us to stone such women to death.
+        But what do you say?"
+008:006 They asked this in order to put Him to the test,
+        so that they might have some charge to bring against Him.
+        But Jesus leant forward and began to write with His finger
+        on the ground.
+008:007 When however they persisted with their question, He raised
+        His head and said to them, "Let the sinless man among you
+        be the first to throw a stone at her."
+008:008 Then He leant forward again, and again began to write
+        on the ground.
+008:009 They listened to Him, and then, beginning with the eldest,
+        took their departure, one by one, till all were gone.
+        And Jesus was left behind alone--and the woman in the centre
+        of the court.
+008:010 Then, raising His head, Jesus said to her, "Where are they?
+        Has no one condemned you?"
+008:011 "No one, Sir," she replied.  "And *I* do not condemn you either,"
+        said Jesus; "go, and from this time do not sin any more."]
+008:012 Once more Jesus addressed them.  "I am the Light of the world,"
+        He said; "the man who follows me shall certainly not walk
+        in the dark, but shall have the light of Life."
+008:013 "You are giving testimony about yourself," said the Pharisees;
+        "your testimony is not true."
+008:014 "Even if I am giving testimony about myself," replied Jesus,
+        "my testimony is true; for I know where I came from and where I
+        am going, but you know neither of these two things.
+008:015 You judge according to appearances:  I am judging no one.
+008:016 And even if I do judge, my judgement is just; for I am not alone,
+        but the Father who sent me is with me.
+008:017 In your own Law, too, it is written that the testimony of two
+        men is true.
+008:018 I am one giving testimony about myself, and the Father who sent
+        me gives testimony about me."
+008:019 "Where is your Father?" they asked.  "You know my Father
+        as little as you know me."  He replied; "if you knew me,
+        you would know my Father also."
+008:020 These sayings He uttered in the Treasury, while teaching
+        in the Temple; yet no one arrested Him, because His time
+        had not yet come.
+008:021 Again He said to them, "I am going away.  Then you will try
+        to find me, but you will die in your sins.  Where I am going,
+        it is impossible for you to come."
+008:022 The Jews began to ask one another, "Is he going to kill himself,
+        do you think, that he says, `Where I am going, it is impossible
+        for you to come'?"
+008:023 "You," He continued, "are from below, I am from above:
+        you are of this present world, I am not of this present world.
+008:024 That is why I told you that you will die in your sins;
+        for, unless you believe that I am He, that is what will happen."
+008:025 "You--who are you?" they asked.  "How is it that I am speaking
+        to you at all?" replied Jesus.
+008:026 "Many things I have to speak and to judge concerning you.
+        But He who sent me is true, and the things which I have heard
+        from Him are those which I have come into the world to speak."
+008:027 They did not perceive that He was speaking to them of the Father.
+008:028 So Jesus added, "When you have lifted up the Son of Man,
+        then you will know that I am He.  Of myself I do nothing;
+        but as the Father has taught me, so I speak.
+008:029 And He who sent me is with me.  He has not left me alone:
+        for I do always what is pleasing to Him."
+008:030 As He thus spoke, many became believers in Him.
+008:031 Jesus therefore said to those of the Jews who had now believed
+        in Him, "As for you, if you hold fast to my teaching,
+        then you are truly my disciples;
+008:032 and you shall know the Truth, and the Truth will make you free."
+008:033 "We are descendants of Abraham," they answered,
+        "and have never at any time been in slavery to any one.
+        What do those words of yours mean, `You shall become free'?"
+008:034 "In most solemn truth I tell you," replied Jesus, "that every
+        one who commits sin is the slave of sin.
+008:035 Now a slave does not remain permanently in his master's house,
+        but a son does.
+008:036 If then the Son shall make you free, you will be free indeed.
+008:037 You are descendants of Abraham, I know; but you want to kill me,
+        because my teaching gains no ground within you.
+008:038 The words I speak are those I have learnt in the presence
+        of the Father.  Therefore you also should do what you have
+        heard from your father."
+008:039 "Our father is Abraham," they said.  "If you were Abraham's children,"
+        replied Jesus, "it is Abraham's deeds that you would be doing.
+008:040 But, in fact, you are longing to kill me, a man who has
+        spoken to you the truth which I have heard from God.
+        Abraham did not do that.
+008:041 You are doing the deeds of your father."  "We," they replied,
+        "are not illegitimate children.  We have one Father, namely God."
+008:042 "If God were your Father," said Jesus, "you would love me;
+        for it is from God that I came and I am now here.
+        I have not come of myself, but *He* sent me.
+008:043 How is it you do not understand me when I speak?
+        It is because you cannot bear to listen to my words.
+008:044 The father whose sons you are is the Devil; and you desire to do
+        what gives him pleasure.  *He* was a murderer from the beginning,
+        and does not stand firm in the truth--for there is no truth in him.
+        Whenever he utters his lie, he utters it out of his own store;
+        for he is a liar, and the father of lies.
+008:045 But because I speak the truth, you do not believe me.
+008:046 Which of *you* convicts me of sin?  If I speak the truth,
+        why do you not believe me?
+008:047 He who is a child of God listens to God's words.
+        You do not listen to them:  and why?  It is because you are
+        not God's children."
+008:048 "Are we not right," answered the Jews, "in saying that you
+        are a Samaritan and are possessed by a demon?"
+008:049 "I am not possessed by a demon," replied Jesus.
+        "On the contrary I honour my Father, and you dishonour me.
+008:050 I, however, am not aiming at glory for myself:  there is One
+        who aims at glory for me--and who judges.
+008:051 In most solemn truth I tell you that if any one shall have
+        obeyed my teaching he shall in no case ever see death."
+008:052 "Now," exclaimed the Jews, "we know that you are possessed
+        by a demon.  Abraham died, and so did the Prophets,
+        and yet *you* say, `If any one shall have obeyed my teaching,
+        he shall in no case ever taste death.'
+008:053 Are you really greater than our forefather Abraham?  For he died.
+        And the prophets died.  Who do you make yourself out to be?"
+008:054 "Were I to glorify myself," answered Jesus, "I should have no
+        real glory.  There is One who glorifies me--namely my Father,
+        who you say is your God.
+008:055 You do not know Him, but I know Him perfectly; and were I to deny
+        my knowledge of Him, I should resemble you, and be a liar.
+        On the contrary I do know Him, and I obey His commands.
+008:056 Abraham your forefather exulted in the hope of seeing my day:
+        and he saw it, and was glad."
+008:057 "You are not yet fifty years old," cried the Jews, "and have
+        you seen Abraham?"
+008:058 "In most solemn truth," answered Jesus, "I tell you that before
+        Abraham came into existence, I am."
+008:059 Thereupon they took up stones with which to stone Him,
+        but He hid Himself and went away out of the Temple.
+009:001 As He passed by, He saw a man who had been blind from his birth.
+009:002 So His disciples asked Him, "Rabbi, who sinned--this man
+        or his parents--that he was born blind?"
+009:003 "Neither he nor his parents sinned," answered Jesus,
+        "but he was born blind in order that God's mercy might be
+        openly shown in him.
+009:004 We must do the works of Him who sent me while there is daylight.
+        Night is coming on, when no one can work.
+009:005 When I am in the world, I am the Light of the world."
+009:006 After thus speaking, He spat on the ground, and then,
+        kneading the dust and spittle into clay, He smeared the clay
+        over the man's eyes and said to him,
+009:007 "Go and wash in the pool of Siloam"--the name means `Sent.'
+        So he went and washed his eyes, and returned able to see.
+009:008 His neighbours, therefore, and the other people to whom he had
+        been a familiar object because he was a beggar, began asking,
+        "Is not this the man who used to sit and beg?"
+009:009 "Yes it is," replied some of them.  "No it is not,"
+        said others, "but he is like him."  His own statement was,
+        "I am the man."
+009:010 "How then were your eyes opened?" they asked.
+009:011 "He whose name is Jesus," he answered, "made clay and smeared
+        my eyes with it, and then told me to go to Siloam and wash.
+        So I went and washed and obtained sight."
+009:012 "Where is he?" they inquired, but the man did not know.
+009:013 They brought him to the Pharisees--the man who had been blind.
+009:014 Now the day on which Jesus made the clay and opened the man's
+        eyes was the Sabbath.
+009:015 So the Pharisees renewed their questioning as to how he had
+        obtained his sight.  "He put clay on my eyes," he replied,
+        "and I washed, and now I can see."
+009:016 This led some of the Pharisees to say, "That man has not come
+        from God, for he does not keep the Sabbath."  "How is it
+        possible for a bad man to do such miracles?" argued others.
+009:017 And there was a division among them.  So again they asked the once
+        blind man, "What is your account of him?--for he opened your eyes."
+        "He is a Prophet," he replied.
+009:018 The Jews, however, did not believe the statement concerning him--
+        that he had been blind and had obtained his sight--until they
+        called his parents and asked them,
+009:019 "Is this your son, who you say was born blind?  How is it then
+        that he can now see?"
+009:020 "We know," replied the parents, "that this is our son and that
+        he was born blind;
+009:021 but how it is that he can now see or who has opened his
+        eyes we do not know.  Ask him himself; he is of full age;
+        he himself will give his own account of it."
+009:022 Such was their answer, because they were afraid of the Jews;
+        for the Jews had already settled among themselves that if any
+        one should acknowledge Jesus as the Christ, he should be
+        excluded from the synagogue.
+009:023 That was why his parents said, "He is of full age:
+        ask him himself."
+009:024 A second time therefore they called the man who had been blind,
+        and said, "Give God the praise:  we know that that man
+        is a sinner."
+009:025 "Whether he is a sinner or not, I do not know," he replied;
+        "one thing I know--that I was once blind and that now I can see."
+009:026 "What did he do to you?" they asked; "how did he open your eyes?"
+009:027 "I have told you already," he replied, "and you did
+        not listen to me.  Why do you want to hear it again?
+        Do you also mean to be disciples of his?"
+009:028 Then they railed at him, and said, "You are that man's disciple,
+        but we are disciples of Moses.
+009:029 We know that God spoke to Moses; but as for this fellow we
+        do not know where he comes from."
+009:030 "Why, this is marvellous!" the man replied; "you do not know
+        where he comes from, and yet he has opened my eyes!
+009:031 We know that God does not listen to bad people, but that if any
+        one is a God-fearing man and obeys Him, to him He listens.
+009:032 From the beginning of the world such a thing was never heard
+        of as that any one should open the eyes of a man blind
+        from his birth.
+009:033 Had that man not come from God, he could have done nothing."
+009:034 "You," they replied, "were wholly begotten and born in sin,
+        and do *you* teach *us*?"  And they put him out of the synagogue.
+009:035 Jesus heard that they had done this.  So having found him,
+        He asked him, "Do you believe in the Son of God?"
+009:036 "Who is He, Sir?" replied the man.  "Tell me, so that I may
+        believe in Him."
+009:037 "You have seen Him," said Jesus; "and not only so:
+        He is now speaking to you."
+009:038 "I believe, Sir," he said.  And he threw himself at His feet.
+009:039 "I came into this world," said Jesus, "to judge men,
+        that those who do not see may see, and that those who do see
+        may become blind."
+009:040 These words were heard by those of the Pharisees who were present,
+        and they asked Him, "Are *we* also blind?"
+009:041 "If you were blind," answered Jesus, "you would have no sin;
+        but as a matter of fact you boast that you see.
+        So your sin remains!"
+010:001 "In most solemn truth I tell you that the man who does not enter
+        the sheepfold by the door, but climbs over some other way,
+        is a thief and a robber.
+010:002 But he who enters by the door is the shepherd of the sheep.
+010:003 To him the porter opens the door, and the sheep hear his voice;
+        and he calls his own sheep by their names and leads them out.
+010:004 When he has brought out his own sheep--all of them--
+        he walks at the head of them; and the sheep follow him,
+        because they know his voice.
+010:005 But a stranger they will by no means follow, but will run away
+        from him, because they do not know the voice of strangers."
+010:006 Jesus spoke to them in this figurative language, but they did
+        not understand what He meant.
+010:007 Again therefore Jesus said to them, "In most solemn truth I
+        tell you that I am the Door of the sheep.
+010:008 All who have come before me are thieves and robbers;
+        but the sheep would not listen to them.
+010:009 I am the Door.  If any one enters by me, he will find safety,
+        and will go in and out and find pasture.
+010:010 The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy:
+        I have come that they may have Life, and may have it in abundance.
+010:011 "I am the Good Shepherd.  A good shepherd lays down his very life
+        for the sheep.
+010:012 The hired servant--one who is not a shepherd and does not own
+        the sheep--no sooner sees the wolf coming than he leaves
+        the sheep and runs away; and the wolf worries and scatters them.
+010:013 For he is only a hired servant and cares nothing for the sheep.
+010:014 "I am the Good Shepherd.  And I know my sheep and my sheep know me,
+010:015 just as the Father knows me and I know the Father; and I am
+        laying down my life for the sheep.
+010:016 I have also other sheep--which do not belong to this fold.
+        Those also I must bring, and they will listen to my voice;
+        and they shall become one flock under one Shepherd.
+010:017 For this reason my Father loves me, because I am laying down
+        my life in order to receive it back again.
+010:018 No one is taking it away from me, but I myself am laying it down.
+        I am authorized to lay it down, and I am authorized to receive
+        it back again.  This is the command I received from my Father."
+010:019 Again there arose a division among the Jews because of these words.
+010:020 Many of them said, "He is possessed by a demon and is mad.
+        Why do you listen to him?"
+010:021 Others argued, "That is not the language of a demoniac:
+        and can a demon open blind men's eyes?"
+010:022 The Dedication Festival came on in Jerusalem.  It was winter,
+010:023 and Jesus was walking in the Temple in Solomon's Portico,
+010:024 when the Jews gathered round Him and kept asking Him, "How long
+        do you mean to keep us in suspense?  If you are the Christ,
+        tell us so plainly."
+010:025 "I have told you," answered Jesus, "and you do not believe.
+        The deeds that I do in my Father's name--they give
+        testimony about me.
+010:026 But you do not believe, because you are not my sheep.
+010:027 My sheep listen to my voice, and I know them, and they follow me.
+010:028 I give them the Life of the Ages, and they shall never,
+        never perish, nor shall any one wrest them from my hand.
+010:029 What my Father has given me is more precious than all besides;
+        and no one is able to wrest anything from my Father's hand.
+010:030 I and the Father are one."
+010:031 Again the Jews brought stones with which to stone Him.
+010:032 Jesus remonstrated with them.  "Many good deeds," He said,
+        "have I shown you as coming from the Father; for which of them
+        are you going to stone me?"
+010:033 "For no good deed," the Jews replied, "are we going to stone you,
+        but for blasphemy, and because you, who are only a man,
+        are making yourself out to be God."
+010:034 "Does it not stand written in your Law," replied Jesus, "`I said,
+        you are gods'?
+010:035 If those to whom God's word was addressed are called gods
+        (and the Scripture cannot be annulled),
+010:036 how is it that you say to one whom the Father consecrated
+        and sent into the world, `You are blaspheming,' because I said,
+        `I am God's Son'?
+010:037 If the deeds I do are not my Father's deeds, do not believe me.
+010:038 But if they are, then even if you do not believe me,
+        at least believe the deeds, that you may know and see clearly
+        that the Father is in me, and that I am in the Father."
+010:039 This made them once more try to arrest Him, but He withdrew
+        out of their power.
+010:040 Then He went away again to the other side of the Jordan,
+        to the place where John had been baptizing at first;
+        and there He stayed.
+010:041 Large numbers of people also came to Him.  Their report was,
+        "John did not work any miracle, but all that John said about
+        this Teacher was true."
+010:042 And many became believers in Him there.
+011:001 Now a certain man, named Lazarus, of Bethany, was lying ill--
+        Bethany being the village of Mary and her sister Martha.
+011:002 (It was the Mary who poured the perfume over the Lord and wiped
+        His feet with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was ill.)
+011:003 So the sisters sent to Him to say, "Master, he whom you hold
+        dear is ill."
+011:004 Jesus received the message and said, "This illness is not
+        to end in death, but is to promote the glory of God,
+        in order that the Son of God may be glorified by it."
+011:005 Now Jesus loved Martha, and her sister, and Lazarus.
+011:006 When, however, He heard that Lazarus was ill, He still remained
+        two days in that same place.
+011:007 Then, after that, He said to the disciples, "Let us
+        return to Judaea."
+011:008 "Rabbi," exclaimed the disciples, "the Jews have just been trying
+        to stone you, and do you think of going back there again?"
+011:009 "Are there not twelve hours in the day?" replied Jesus.
+        "If any one walks in the daytime, he does not stumble--
+        because he sees the light of this world.
+011:010 But if a man walks by night, he does stumble, because the light
+        is not in him."
+011:011 He said this, and afterwards He added, "Our friend Lazarus
+        is sleeping, but I will go and wake him."
+011:012 "Master," said the disciples, "if he is asleep he will recover."
+011:013 Now Jesus had spoken of his death, but they thought He referred
+        to the rest taken in ordinary sleep.
+011:014 So then He told them plainly,
+011:015 "Lazarus is dead; and for your sakes I am glad I was not there,
+        in order that you may believe.  But let us go to him."
+011:016 "Let us go also," Thomas, the Twin, said to his fellow disciples,
+        "that we may die with him."
+011:017 On His arrival Jesus found that Lazarus had already been
+        three days in the tomb.
+011:018 Bethany was near Jerusalem, the distance being a little less
+        than two miles;
+011:019 and a considerable number of the Jews were with Martha and Mary,
+        having come to express sympathy with them on the death
+        of their brother.
+011:020 Martha, however, as soon as she heard the tidings, "Jesus is coming,"
+        went to meet Him; but Mary remained sitting in the house.
+011:021 So Martha came and spoke to Jesus.  "Master, if you had been here,"
+        she said, "my brother would not have died.
+011:022 And even now I know that whatever you ask God for,
+        God will give you."
+011:023 "Your brother shall rise again," replied Jesus.
+011:024 "I know," said Martha, "that he will rise again at the resurrection,
+        on the last day."
+011:025 "I am the Resurrection and the Life," said Jesus; "he who believes
+        in me, even if he has died, he shall live;
+011:026 and every one who is living and is a believer in me shall never,
+        never die.  Do you believe this?"
+011:027 "Yes, Master," she replied; "I thoroughly believe that you are
+        the Christ, the Son of God, who was to come into the world."
+011:028 After saying this, she went and called her sister Mary privately,
+        telling her, "The Rabbi is here and is asking for you."
+011:029 So she, on hearing that, rose up quickly to go to Him.
+011:030 Now Jesus was not yet come into the village, but was still
+        at the place where Martha had met Him.
+011:031 So the Jews who were with Mary in the house sympathizing with her,
+        when they saw that she had risen hastily and had gone out,
+        followed her, supposing that she was going to the tomb
+        to weep aloud there.
+011:032 Mary then, when she came to Jesus and saw Him, fell at His
+        feet and exclaimed, "Master, if you had been here, my brother
+        would not have died."
+011:033 Seeing her weeping aloud, and the Jews in like manner weeping
+        who had come with her, Jesus, curbing the strong emotion
+        of His spirit,
+011:034 though deeply troubled, asked them, "Where have you laid him?"
+        "Master, come and see," was their reply.
+011:035 Jesus wept.
+011:036 "See how dear he held him," said the Jews.
+011:037 But others of them asked, "Was this man who opened the blind
+        man's eyes unable to prevent this man from dying?"
+011:038 Jesus, however, again restraining His strong feeling,
+        came to the tomb.  It was a cave, and a stone had been laid
+        against the mouth of it.
+011:039 "Take away the stone," said Jesus.  Martha, the sister of the
+        dead man, exclaimed, "Master, by this time there is a foul smell;
+        for it is three days since he died."
+011:040 "Did I not promise you," replied Jesus, "that if you believe,
+        you shall see the glory of God?"
+011:041 So they removed the stone.  Then Jesus lifted up His eyes
+        and said, "Father, I thank Thee that Thou hast heard me.
+011:042 I know that Thou always hearest me; but for the sake of the crowd
+        standing round I have said this--that they may believe
+        that Thou didst send me."
+011:043 After speaking thus, He called out in a loud voice,
+        "Lazarus, come out."
+011:044 The dead man came out, his hands and feet wrapped in cloths,
+        and his face wrapped round with a towel.  "Untie him,"
+        said Jesus, "and let him go free."
+011:045 Thereupon a considerable number of the Jews--namely those
+        who had come to Mary and had witnessed His deeds--
+        became believers in Him;
+011:046 though some of them went off to the Pharisees and told them
+        what He had done.
+011:047 Therefore the High Priests and the Pharisees held a meeting of
+        the Sanhedrin.  "What steps are we taking?" they asked one another;
+        "for this man is performing a great number of miracles.
+011:048 If we leave him alone in this way, everybody will believe
+        in him, and the Romans will come and blot out both our city
+        and our nation."
+011:049 But one of them, named Caiaphas, being High Priest that year,
+        said, "You know nothing about it.
+011:050 You do not reflect that it is to your interest that one man
+        should die for the people rather than the whole nation perish."
+011:051 It was not as a mere man that he thus spoke.  But being
+        High Priest that year he was inspired to declare that Jesus
+        was to die for the nation,
+011:052 and not for the nation only, but in order to unite into one
+        body all the far-scattered children of God.
+011:053 So from that day forward they planned and schemed in order
+        to put Him to death.
+011:054 Therefore Jesus no longer went about openly among the Jews,
+        but He left that neighbourhood and went into the district
+        near the Desert, to a town called Ephraim, and remained there
+        with the disciples.
+011:055 The Jewish Passover was coming near, and many from that district
+        went up to Jerusalem before the Passover, to purify themselves.
+011:056 They therefore looked out for Jesus, and asked one another
+        as they stood in the Temple, "What do you think?--will he come
+        to the Festival at all?"
+011:057 Now the High Priests and the Pharisees had issued orders
+        that if any one knew where He was, he should give information,
+        so that they might arrest Him.
+012:001 Jesus, however, six days before the Passover, came to Bethany,
+        where Lazarus was whom He had raised from the dead.
+012:002 So they gave a dinner there in honour of Jesus, at which
+        Martha waited at table, but Lazarus was one of the guests
+        who were with Him.
+012:003 Availing herself of the opportunity, Mary took a pound weight
+        of pure spikenard, very costly, and poured it over His feet,
+        and wiped His feet with her hair, so that the house was filled
+        with the fragrance of the perfume.
+012:004 Then said Judas (the Iscariot, one of the Twelve--the one
+        who afterwards betrayed Jesus),
+012:005 "Why was not that perfume sold for 300 shillings and the money
+        given to the poor?"
+012:006 The reason he said this was not that he cared for the poor,
+        but that he was a thief, and that being in charge of the money-box,
+        he used to steal what was put into it.
+012:007 But Jesus interposed.  "Do not blame her," He said, "allow her
+        to have kept it for the time of my preparation for burial.
+012:008 For the poor you always have with you, but you have not me always."
+012:009 Now it became widely known among the Jews that Jesus was there;
+        but they came not only on His account, but also in order
+        to see Lazarus whom He had brought back to life.
+012:010 The High Priests, however, consulted together to put Lazarus
+        also to death,
+012:011 for because of him many of the Jews left them and became
+        believers in Jesus.
+012:012 The next day a great crowd of those who had come to the Festival,
+        hearing that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem,
+012:013 took branches of the palm trees and went out to meet Him,
+        shouting as they went, "God save him!  Blessings on him who
+        comes in the name of the Lord--even on the King of Israel!"
+012:014 And Jesus, having procured a young ass, sat upon it,
+        just as the Scripture says,
+012:015 "Fear not, Daughter of Zion!  See, thy King is coming riding
+        on an ass's colt."
+012:016 The meaning of this His disciples did not understand at the time;
+        but after Jesus was glorified they recollected that this
+        was written about Him, and that they had done this to Him.
+012:017 The large number of people, however, who had been present when He
+        called Lazarus out of the tomb and brought him back to life,
+        related what they had witnessed.
+012:018 This was also why the crowd came to meet Him, because they
+        had heard of His having performed that miracle.
+012:019 The result was that the Pharisees said among themselves,
+        "Observe how idle all your efforts are!  The world is
+        gone after him!"
+012:020 Now some of those who used to come up to worship at the
+        Festival were Greeks.
+012:021 They came to Philip, of Bethsaida in Galilee, with the request,
+        "Sir, we wish to see Jesus."
+012:022 Philip came and told Andrew:  Andrew and Philip told Jesus.
+012:023 His answer was, "The time has come for the Son of Man
+        to be glorified.
+012:024 In most solemn truth I tell you that unless the grain of wheat
+        falls into the ground and dies, it remains what it was--
+        a single grain; but that if it dies, it yields a rich harvest.
+012:025 He who holds his life dear, is destroying it; and he who makes
+        his life of no account in this world shall keep it to the Life
+        of the Ages.
+012:026 If a man wishes to be my servant, let him follow me;
+        and where I am, there too shall my servant be.
+        If a man wishes to be my servant, the Father will honour him.
+012:027 Now is my soul full of trouble; and what shall I say?
+        Father, save me from this hour.  But for this purpose I
+        have come to this hour.
+012:028 Father, glorify Thy name."  Thereupon there came a voice from
+        the sky, "I have glorified it and will also glorify it again."
+012:029 The crowd that stood by and heard it, said that there had
+        been thunder.  Others said, "An angel spoke to him."
+012:030 "It is not for my sake," said Jesus, "that that voice came,
+        but for your sakes.
+012:031 Now is a judgement of this world:  now will the Prince of this
+        world be driven out.
+012:032 And I--if I am lifted up from the earth--will draw all men to me."
+012:033 He said this to indicate the kind of death He would die.
+012:034 The crowd answered Him, "We have heard out of the Law that
+        the Christ remains for ever.  In what sense do you say that
+        the Son of Man must be lifted up?  Who is that Son of Man?"
+012:035 "Yet a little while," He replied, "the light is among you.
+        Be faithful to the light that you have, for fear darkness
+        should overtake you; for a man who walks in the dark does
+        not know where he is going.
+012:036 In the degree that you have light, believe in the Light,
+        so that you may become sons of Light."  Jesus said this,
+        and went away and hid Himself from them.
+012:037 But though He had performed such great miracles in their presence,
+        they did not believe in Him--
+012:038 in order that the words of Isaiah the Prophet might
+        be fulfilled, "Lord, who has believed our preaching?
+        And the arm of the Lord--to whom has it been unveiled?"
+012:039 For this reason they were unable to believe--because Isaiah
+        said again,
+012:040 "He has blinded their eyes and made their minds callous,
+        lest they should see with their eyes and perceive with their minds,
+        and should turn, and I should heal them."
+012:041 Isaiah uttered these words because he saw His glory;
+        and he spoke of Him.
+012:042 Nevertheless even from among the Rulers many believed in Him.
+        But because of the Pharisees they did not avow their belief,
+        for fear they should be shut out from the synagogue.
+012:043 For they loved the glory that comes from men rather than
+        the glory that comes from God.
+012:044 But Jesus cried aloud, "He who believes in me, believes not
+        so much in me, as in Him who sent me;
+012:045 and he who sees me sees Him who sent me.
+012:046 I have come like light into the world, in order that no one
+        who believes in me may remain in the dark.
+012:047 And if any one hears my teachings and regards them not,
+        I do not judge him; for I did not come to judge the world,
+        but to save the world.
+012:048 He who sets me at naught and does not receive my teachings
+        is not left without a judge:  the Message which I have spoken
+        will judge him on the last day.
+012:049 Because I have not spoken on my own authority; but the Father
+        who sent me, Himself gave me a command what to say and in
+        what words to speak.
+012:050 And I know that His command is the Life of the Ages.
+        What therefore I speak, I speak just as the Father has bidden me."
+013:001 Now just before the Feast of the Passover this incident took place.
+        Jesus knew that the time had come for Him to leave this world
+        and go to the Father; and having loved His own who were
+        in the world, He loved them to the end.
+013:002 While supper was proceeding, the Devil having by this time
+        suggested to Judas Iscariot, the son of Simon, the thought
+        of betraying Him, Jesus,
+013:003 although He knew that the Father had put everything into His hands,
+        and that He had come forth from God and was now going to God,
+013:004 rose from the table, threw off His upper garments, and took
+        a towel and tied it round Him.
+013:005 Then He poured water into a basin, and proceeded to wash
+        the feet of the disciples and to wipe them with the towel
+        which He had put round Him.
+013:006 When He came to Simon Peter, Peter objected.  "Master," he said,
+        "are *you* going to wash my feet?"
+013:007 "What I am doing," answered Jesus, "for the present you do
+        not know, but afterwards you shall know."
+013:008 "Never, while the world lasts," said Peter, "shall you
+        wash my feet."  "If I do not wash you," replied Jesus,
+        "you have no share with me."
+013:009 "Master," said Peter, "wash not only my feet, but also my hands
+        and my head."
+013:010 "Any one who has lately bathed," said Jesus, "does not
+        need to wash more than his feet, but is clean all over.
+        And you my disciples are clean, and yet this is not true
+        of all of you."
+013:011 For He knew who was betraying Him, and that was why He said,
+        "You are not all of you clean."
+013:012 So after He had washed their feet, put on His garments again,
+        and returned to the table, He said to them, "Do you understand
+        what I have done to you?
+013:013 You call me `The Rabbi' and `The Master,' and rightly so,
+        for such I am.
+013:014 If I then, your Master and Rabbi, have washed your feet,
+        it is also your duty to wash one another's feet.
+013:015 For I have set you an example in order that you may do what I
+        have done to you.
+013:016 In most solemn truth I tell you that a servant is not superior
+        to his master, nor is a messenger superior to him who sent him.
+013:017 If you know all this, blessed are you if you act accordingly.
+013:018 I am not speaking of all of you.  I know whom I have chosen,
+        but things are as they are in order that the Scripture may
+        be fulfilled, which says, `He who eats my bread has lifted
+        up his heel against me.'
+013:019 From this time forward I tell you things before they happen,
+        in order that when they do happen you may believe that I am He.
+013:020 In most solemn truth I tell you that he who receives whoever
+        I send receives me, and that he who receives me receives Him
+        who sent me."
+013:021 After speaking thus Jesus was troubled in spirit and said
+        with deep earnestness, "In most solemn truth I tell you
+        that one of you will betray me."
+013:022 The disciples began looking at one another, at a loss to know
+        to which of them He was referring.
+013:023 There was at table one of His disciples--the one Jesus loved--
+        reclining with his head on Jesus's bosom.
+013:024 Making a sign therefore to him, Simon Peter said, "Tell us
+        to whom he is referring."
+013:025 So he, having his head on Jesus's bosom, leaned back and asked,
+        "Master, who is it?"
+013:026 "It is the one," answered Jesus, "for whom I shall dip this
+        piece of bread and to whom I shall give it."  Accordingly He
+        dipped the piece of bread, and took it and gave it to Judas,
+        the son of the Iscariot Simon.
+013:027 Then, after Judas had received the piece of bread, Satan entered
+        into him.  "Lose no time about it," said Jesus to him.
+013:028 But why He said this no one else at the table understood.
+013:029 Some, however, supposed that because Judas had the money-box
+        Jesus meant, "Buy what we require for the Festival,"
+        or that he should give something to the poor.
+013:030 So Judas took the piece of bread and immediately went out.
+        And it was night.
+013:031 So when he was gone out, Jesus said, "Now is the Son of
+        Man glorified, and God is glorified in Him.
+013:032 Moreover God will glorify Him in Himself, and will glorify
+        Him without delay.
+013:033 Dear children, I am still with you a little longer.
+        You will seek me, but, as I said to the Jews, `Where I am
+        going you cannot come,' so for the present I say to you.
+013:034 A new commandment I give you, to love one another; that as I
+        have loved you, you also may love one another.
+013:035 It is by this that every one will know that you are my disciples--
+        if you love one another."
+013:036 "Master," inquired Simon Peter, "where are you going?"
+        "Where I am going," replied Jesus, "you cannot be my follower now,
+        but you shall be later."
+013:037 "Master," asked Peter again, "why cannot I follow you now?
+        I will lay down my life on your behalf.
+013:038 "You say you will lay down your life on my behalf!" said Jesus;
+        "in most solemn truth I tell you that the cock will not crow
+        before you have three times disowned me."
+014:001 "Let not your hearts be troubled.  Trust in God:
+        trust in me also.
+014:002 In my Father's house there are many resting-places. Were
+        it otherwise, I would have told you; for I am going to make
+        ready a place for you.
+014:003 And if I go and make ready a place for you, I will return
+        and take you to be with me, that where I am you also may be.
+014:004 And where I am going, you all know the way."
+014:005 "Master," said Thomas, "we do not know where you are going.
+        In what sense do we know the way?"
+014:006 "I am the Way," replied Jesus, "and the Truth and the Life.
+        No one comes to the Father except through me.
+014:007 If you--all of you--knew me, you would fully know my Father also.
+        From this time forward you know Him and have seen Him."
+014:008 "Master," said Philip, "cause us to see the Father:
+        that is all we need."
+014:009 "Have I been so long among you," Jesus answered, "and yet you,
+        Philip, do not know me?  He who has seen me has seen the Father.
+        How can *you* ask me, `Cause us to see the Father'?
+014:010 Do you not believe that I am in the Father and that the Father
+        is in me?  The things that I tell you all I do not speak on
+        my own authority:  but the Father dwelling within me carries
+        on His own work.
+014:011 Believe me, all of you, that I am in the Father and that the Father
+        is in me; or at any rate, believe me because of what I do.
+014:012 In most solemn truth I tell you that he who trusts in me--
+        the things which I do he shall do also; and greater things
+        than these he shall do, because I am going to the Father.
+014:013 And whatever any of you ask in my name, I will do, in order
+        that the Father may be glorified in the Son.
+014:014 If you make any request of me in my name, I will do it.
+014:015 "If you love me, you will obey my commandments.
+014:016 And I will ask the Father, and He will give you another Advocate
+        to be for ever with you--the Spirit of truth.
+014:017 That Spirit the world cannot receive, because it does not see
+        Him or know Him.  You know Him, because He remains by your
+        side and is in you.
+014:018 I will not leave you bereaved:  I am coming to you.
+014:019 Yet a little while and the world will see me no more, but you
+        will see me:  because I live, you also shall live.
+014:020 At that time you will know that I am in my Father, and that you
+        are in me, and that I am in you.
+014:021 He who has my commandments and obeys them--he it is who loves me.
+        And he who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I will
+        love him and will clearly reveal myself to him."
+014:022 Judas (not the Iscariot) asked, "Master, how is it that you
+        will reveal yourself clearly to us and not to the world?"
+014:023 "If any one loves me," replied Jesus, "he will obey my teaching;
+        and my Father will love him, and we will come to him and make
+        our home with him.
+014:024 He who has no love for me does not obey my teaching;
+        and yet the teaching to which you are listening is not mine,
+        but is the teaching of the Father who sent me.
+014:025 "All this I have spoken to you while still with you.
+014:026 But the Advocate, the Holy Spirit whom the Father will send
+        at my request, will teach you everything, and will bring
+        to your memories all that I have said to you.
+014:027 Peace I leave with you:  my own peace I give to you.
+        It is not as the world gives its greetings that I give you peace.
+        Let not your hearts be troubled or dismayed.
+014:028 "You heard me say to you, `I am going away, and yet I am coming
+        to you.'  If you loved me, you would have rejoiced because I
+        am going to the Father; for the Father is greater than I am.
+014:029 I have now told you before it comes to pass, that when it has
+        come to pass you may believe.
+014:030 In future I shall not talk much with you, for the Prince
+        of this world is coming.  And yet in me he has nothing;
+014:031 but it is in order that the world may know that I love the Father,
+        and that it is in obedience to the command which the Father
+        gave me that I thus act.  Rise, let us be going."
+015:001 "I am the Vine--the True Vine, and my Father is the vine-dresser.
+015:002 Every branch in me--if it bears no fruit, He takes away;
+        and every branch that bears fruit He prunes, that it may
+        bear more fruit.
+015:003 Already you are cleansed--through the teaching which I
+        have given you.
+015:004 Continue in me, and let me continue in you.  Just as the branch
+        cannot bear fruit of itself--that is, if it does not continue
+        in the vine--so neither can you if you do not continue in me.
+015:005 I am the Vine, you are the branches.  He who continues in me
+        and in whom I continue bears abundant fruit, for apart from me
+        you can do nothing.
+015:006 If any one does not continue in me, he is like the unfruitful
+        branch which is at once thrown away and then withers up.
+        Such branches they gather up and throw into the fire and
+        they are burned.
+015:007 "If you continue in me and my sayings continue in you,
+        ask what you will and it shall be done for you.
+015:008 By this is God glorified--by your bearing abundant fruit
+        and thus being true disciples of mine.
+015:009 As the Father has loved me, I have also loved you:
+        continue in my love.
+015:010 If you obey my commands, you will continue in my love, as I
+        have obeyed my Father's commands and continue in His love.
+015:011 "These things I have spoken to you in order that I may have joy
+        in you, and that your joy may become perfect.
+015:012 This is my commandment to you, to love one another as I
+        have loved you.
+015:013 No one has greater love than this--a man laying down his life
+        for his friends.
+015:014 You are my friends, if you do what I command you.
+015:015 No longer do I call you servants, because a servant does not
+        know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends,
+        because all that I have heard from the Father I have made
+        known to you.
+015:016 It is not you who chose me, but it is I who chose you and
+        appointed you that you might go and be fruitful and that your
+        fruit might remain; so that whatever petition you present
+        to the Father in my name He may give you.
+015:017 "Thus I command you to love one another.
+015:018 If the world hates you, remember that it has first had me
+        as the fixed object of its hatred.
+015:019 If you belonged to the world, the world would love its own property.
+        But because you do not belong to the world, and I have chosen
+        you out of the world--for that reason the world hates you.
+015:020 Bear in mind what I said to you, `A servant is not superior
+        to his master.'  If they have persecuted me, they will
+        also persecute you:  if they have obeyed my teaching,
+        they will obey yours also.
+015:021 But they will inflict all this suffering upon you on account
+        of your bearing my name--because they do not know Him
+        who sent me.
+015:022 "If I had not come and spoken to them, they would have had no sin;
+        but as the case stands they are without excuse for their sin.
+015:023 He who hates me hates my Father also.
+015:024 If I had not done among them, as I have, such miracles as no
+        one else ever did, they would have had no sin; but they
+        have in fact seen and also hated both me and my Father.
+015:025 But this has been so, in order that the saying may be fulfilled
+        which stands written in their Law, `They have hated me
+        without any reason.'
+015:026 "When the Advocate is come whom I will send to you from
+        the Father's presence--the Spirit of Truth who comes forth
+        from the Father's presence--He will be a witness concerning me.
+015:027 And you also are witnesses, because you have been with me
+        from the first.
+016:001 "These things I have spoken to you in order to clear
+        stumbling-blocks out of your path.
+016:002 You will be excluded from the synagogues; nay more, the time
+        is coming when any one who has murdered one of you will suppose
+        he is offering service to God.
+016:003 And they will do these things because they have failed
+        to recognize the Father and to discover who I am.
+016:004 But I have spoken these things to you in order that when
+        the time for their accomplishment comes you may remember them,
+        and may recollect that I told you.  I did not, however, tell you
+        all this at first, because I was still with you.
+016:005 But now I an returning to Him who sent me; and not one of you
+        asks me where I am going.
+016:006 But grief has filled your hearts because I have said all
+        this to you.
+016:007 "Yet it is the truth that I am telling you--it is to your
+        advantage that I go away.  For unless I go away, the Advocate
+        will not come to you; but if I go, I will send Him to you.
+016:008 And He, when He comes, will convict the world in respect of sin,
+        of righteousness, and of judgement;--
+016:009 of sin, because they do not believe in me;
+016:010 of righteousness, because I am going to the Father, and you
+        will no longer see me;
+016:011 of judgement, because the Prince of this world is under sentence.
+016:012 "I have much more to say to you, but you are unable at present
+        to bear the burden of it.
+016:013 But when He has come--the Spirit of Truth--He will guide
+        you into all the truth.  For He will not speak as Himself
+        originating what He says, but all that He hears He will speak,
+        and He will make known the future to you.
+016:014 He will glorify me, because He will take of what is mine
+        and will make it known to you.
+016:015 Everything that the Father has is mine; that is why I said
+        that the Spirit of Truth takes of what is mine and will make
+        it known to you.
+016:016 "A little while and you see me no more, and again a little
+        while and you shall see me."
+016:017 Some of His disciples therefore said to one another, "What does
+        this mean which He is telling us, `A little while and you
+        do not see me, and again a little while and you shall see me,'
+        and `Because I am going to the Father'?"
+016:018 So they asked one another repeatedly, "What can that `little while'
+        mean which He speaks of?  We do not understand His words."
+016:019 Jesus perceived that they wanted to ask Him, and He said,
+        "Is this what you are questioning one another about--
+        my saying, `A little while and you do not see me, and again
+        a little while and you shall see me'?
+016:020 In most solemn truth I tell you that you will weep aloud
+        and lament, but the world will be glad.  You will mourn,
+        but your grief will be turned into gladness.
+016:021 A woman, when she is in labour, has sorrow, because her
+        time has come.  But when she has given birth to the babe,
+        she no longer remembers the pain, because of her joy at a child
+        being born into the world.
+016:022 So you also now have sorrow; but I shall see you again,
+        and your hearts will be glad, and your gladness no one will
+        take away from you.
+016:023 You will put no questions to me then.  "In most solemn truth
+        I tell you that whatever you ask the Father for in my name
+        He will give you.
+016:024 As yet you have not asked for anything in my name:  ask, and you
+        shall receive, that your hearts may be filled with gladness.
+016:025 "All this I have spoken to you in veiled language.
+        The time is coming when I shall no longer speak to you
+        in veiled language, but will tell you about the Father
+        in plain words.
+016:026 At that time you will make your requests in my name;
+        and I do not promise to ask the Father on your behalf,
+016:027 for the Father Himself holds you dear, because you have held me
+        dear and have believed that I came from the Father's presence.
+016:028 I came from the Father and have come into the world.
+        Again I am leaving the world and am going to the Father."
+016:029 "Ah, now you are using plain language," said His disciples,
+        "and are uttering no figure of speech!
+016:030 Now we know that you have all knowledge, and do not need to be
+        pressed with questions.  Through this we believe that you
+        came from God."
+016:031 "Do you at last believe?" replied Jesus.
+016:032 "Remember that the time is coming, nay, has already come, for you
+        all to be dispersed each to his own home and to leave me alone.
+        And yet I am not alone, for the Father is with me.
+016:033 "I have spoken all this to you in order that in me you
+        may have peace.  In the world you have affliction.
+        But keep up your courage:  *I* have won the victory
+        over the world."
+017:001 When Jesus had thus spoken, He raised his eyes towards Heaven
+        and said, "Father, the hour has come.  Glorify Thy Son
+        that the Son may glorify Thee;
+017:002 even as Thou hast given Him authority over all mankind,
+        so that on all whom Thou hast given Him He may bestow the Life
+        of the Ages.
+017:003 And in this consists the Life of the Ages--in knowing Thee
+        the only true God and Jesus Christ whom Thou hast sent.
+017:004 I have glorified Thee on earth, having done perfectly the work
+        which by Thine appointment has been mine to do.
+017:005 And now, Father, do Thou glorify me in Thine own presence,
+        with the glory that I had in Thy presence before the world existed.
+017:006 "I have revealed Thy perfections to the men whom Thou gavest me
+        out of the world.  Thine they were, and Thou gavest them to me,
+        and they have obeyed Thy message.
+017:007 Now they know that whatever Thou hast given me is from Thee.
+017:008 For the truths which Thou didst teach me I have taught them.
+        And they have received them, and have known for certain that I
+        came out from Thy presence, and have believed that Thou
+        didst send me.
+017:009 "I am making request for them:  for the world I do not make
+        any request, but for those whom Thou hast given me.
+        Because they are Thine,
+017:010 and everything that is mine is Thine, and everything that is
+        Thine is mine; and I am crowned with glory in them.
+017:011 I am now no longer in the world, but they are in the world and I
+        am coming to Thee.  "Holy Father, keep them true to Thy name--
+        the name which Thou hast given me to bear--that they may be one,
+        even as we are.
+017:012 While I was with them, I kept them true to Thy name--the name
+        Thou hast given me to bear--and I kept watch over them, and not
+        one of them is lost but only he who is doomed to destruction--
+        that the Scripture may be fulfilled.
+017:013 "But now I am coming to Thee, and I speak these words while I
+        am in the world, in order that they may have my gladness
+        within them filling their hearts.
+017:014 I have given them Thy Message, and the world has hated them,
+        because they do not belong to the world, just as I do not
+        belong to the world.
+017:015 I do not ask that Thou wilt remove them out of the world,
+        but that Thou wilt protect them from the Evil one.
+017:016 They do not belong to the world, just as I do not belong
+        to the world.
+017:017 Make them holy in the truth:  Thy Message is truth.
+017:018 Just as Thou didst send me into the world, I also have sent them;
+017:019 and on their behalf I consecrate myself, in order that they
+        may become perfectly consecrated in truth.
+017:020 "Nor is it for them alone that I make request.
+        It is also for those who trust in me through their teaching;
+017:021 that they may all be one, even as Thou art in me, O Father,
+        and I am in Thee; that they also may be in us; that the world
+        may believe that Thou didst send me.
+017:022 And the glory which Thou hast given me I have given them,
+        that they may be one, just as we are one:
+017:023 I in them and Thou in me; that they may stand perfected in one;
+        that the world may come to understand that Thou didst send me
+        and hast loved them with the same love as that with which Thou
+        hast loved me.
+017:024 "Father, those whom Thou hast given me--I desire that where I
+        am they also may be with me, that they may see the glory--
+        my glory--my gift from Thee, which Thou hast given me because
+        Thou didst love me before the creation of the world.
+017:025 And, righteous Father, though the world has failed to
+        recognize Thee, I have known Thee, and these have perceived
+        that Thou didst send me.
+017:026 And I have made known Thy name to them and will make it known,
+        that the love with which Thou hast loved me may be in them,
+        and that I may be in them."
+018:001 After offering this prayer Jesus went out with His
+        disciples to a place on the further side of the Ravine
+        of the Cedars, where there was a garden which He entered--
+        Himself and His disciples.
+018:002 Now Judas also, who at that very time was betraying Him,
+        knew the place, for Jesus had often resorted there
+        with His disciples.
+018:003 So Judas, followed by the battalion and by a detachment
+        of the Temple police sent by the High Priests and Pharisees,
+        came there with torches and lamps and weapons.
+018:004 Jesus therefore, knowing all that was about to befall Him,
+        went out to meet them.  "Who are you looking for?"
+        He asked them.
+018:005 "For Jesus the Nazarene," was the answer.  "I am he," He replied.
+        (Now Judas who was betraying Him was also standing with them.)
+018:006 As soon then as He said to them, "I am he," they went backwards
+        and fell to the ground.
+018:007 Again therefore He asked them, "Who are you looking for?"
+        "For Jesus the Nazarene," they said.
+018:008 "I have told you," replied Jesus, "that I am he.
+        If therefore you are looking for me, let these my disciples
+        go their way."
+018:009 He made this request in order that the words He had spoken
+        might be fulfilled, "As for those whom Thou hast given me,
+        I have not lost one."
+018:010 Simon Peter, however, having a sword, drew it, and, aiming at
+        the High Priest's servant, cut off his right ear.
+        The servant's name was Malchus.
+018:011 Jesus therefore said to Peter, "Put back your sword.
+        Shall I refuse to drink the cup of sorrow which the Father
+        has given me to drink?"
+018:012 So the battalion and their tribune and the Jewish police closed in,
+        and took Jesus and bound Him.
+018:013 They then brought Him to Annas first; for Annas was the father-in-law
+        of Caiaphas who was High Priest that year.
+018:014 (It was this Caiaphas who had advised the Jews, saying, "It is
+        to your interest that one man should die for the People.")
+018:015 Meanwhile Simon Peter was following Jesus, and so also was
+        another disciple.  The latter was known to the High Priest,
+        and went in with Jesus into the court of the High Priest's palace.
+018:016 But Peter remained standing outside the door, till the disciple
+        who was acquainted with the High Priest came out and induced
+        the portress to let Peter in.
+018:017 This led the girl, the portress, to ask Peter, "Are you also
+        one of this man's disciples?"  "No, I am not," he replied.
+018:018 Now because it was cold the servants and the police had lighted
+        a charcoal fire, and were standing and warming themselves;
+        and Peter too remained with them, standing and warming himself.
+018:019 So the High Priest questioned Jesus about His disciples
+        and His teaching.
+018:020 "As for me," replied Jesus, "I have spoken openly to the world.
+        I have continually taught in some synagogue or in the Temple
+        where all the Jews are wont to assemble, and I have said
+        nothing in secret.
+018:021 Why do you question me?  Question those who heard what it was I
+        said to them:  these witnesses here know what I said."
+018:022 Upon His saying this, one of the officers standing by struck Him
+        with his open hand, asking Him as he did so, "Is that the way
+        you answer the High Priest?"
+018:023 "If I have spoken wrongly," replied Jesus, "bear witness to it
+        as wrong; but if rightly, why that blow?"
+018:024 So Annas sent Him bound to Caiaphas the High Priest.
+018:025 But Simon Peter remained standing and warming himself, and this
+        led to their asking him, "Are you also one of his disciples?"
+        He denied it, and said, "No, I am not."
+018:026 One of the High Priest's servants, a relative of the man
+        whose ear Peter had cut off, said, "Did I not see you
+        in the garden with him?"
+018:027 Once more Peter denied it, and immediately a cock crowed.
+018:028 So they brought Jesus from Caiaphas's house to the Praetorium.
+        It was the early morning, and they would not enter the Praetorium
+        themselves for fear of defilement, and in order that they
+        might be able to eat the Passover.
+018:029 Accordingly Pilate came out to them and inquired, "What accusation
+        have you to bring against this man?"
+018:030 "If the man were not a criminal," they replied, "we would
+        not have handed him over to you."
+018:031 "Take him yourselves," said Pilate, "and judge him by your Law."
+        "We have no power," replied the Jews, "to put any man to death."
+018:032 They said this that the words might be fulfilled in which Jesus
+        predicted the kind of death He was to die.
+018:033 Re-entering the Praetorium, therefore, Pilate called Jesus
+        and asked Him, "Are *you* the King of the Jews?"
+018:034 "Do you say this of yourself, or have others told it you
+        about me?" replied Jesus.
+018:035 "Am I a Jew?" exclaimed Pilate; "it is your own nation
+        and the High Priests who have handed you over to me.
+        What have you done?"
+018:036 "My kingdom," replied Jesus, "does not belong to this world.
+        If my kingdom did belong to this world, my subjects would have
+        resolutely fought to save me from being delivered up to the Jews.
+        But, as a matter of fact, my kingdom has not this origin."
+018:037 "So then *you* are a king!" rejoined Pilate.  "Yes," said Jesus,
+        "you say truly that I am a king.  For this purpose I
+        was born, and for this purpose I have come into the world--
+        to give testimony for the truth.  Every one who is a friend
+        of the truth listens to my voice."
+018:038 "What is truth?" said Pilate.  But no sooner had he spoken
+        the words than he went out again to the Jews and told them,
+        "I find no crime in him.
+018:039 But you have a custom that I should release one prisoner
+        to you at the Passover.  So shall I release to you the King
+        of the Jews?"
+018:040 With a roar of voices they again cried out, saying, "Not this man,
+        but Barabbas!"  Now Barabbas was a robber.
+019:001 Then Pilate took Jesus and scourged Him.
+019:002 And the soldiers, twisting twigs of thorn into a wreath,
+        put it on His head, and threw round Him a crimson cloak.
+019:003 Then they began to march up to Him, saying in a mocking voice,
+        "Hail King of the Jews!"  And they struck Him with the palms
+        of their hands.
+019:004 Once more Pilate came out and said to the Jews, "See, I am
+        bringing him out to you to let you clearly understand that I
+        find no crime in him."
+019:005 So Jesus came out, wearing the wreath of thorns and the
+        crimson cloak.  And Pilate said to them, "See, there is the man."
+019:006 As soon then as the High Priests and the officers saw Him,
+        they shouted "To the cross!  To the cross!"  "Take him
+        yourselves and crucify him," said Pilate; "for I, at any rate,
+        find no crime in him."
+019:007 "We," replied the Jews, "have a Law, and in accordance with that
+        Law he ought to die, for having claimed to be the Son of God."
+019:008 More alarmed than ever, Pilate no sooner heard these words
+        than he re-entered the Praetorium and began to question Jesus.
+019:009 "What is your origin?" he asked.  But Jesus gave him no answer.
+019:010 "Do you refuse to speak even to me?" asked Pilate; "do you
+        not know that I have it in my power either to release you
+        or to crucify you?"
+019:011 "You would have had no power whatever over me,"
+        replied Jesus, "had it not been granted you from above.
+        On that account he who has delivered me up to you is more
+        guilty than you are."
+019:012 Upon receiving this answer, Pilate was for releasing Him.
+        But the Jews kept shouting, "If you release this man,
+        you are no friend of Caesar's. Every one who sets himself up
+        as king declares himself a rebel against Caesar."
+019:013 On hearing this, Pilate brought Jesus out, and sat down
+        on the judge's seat in a place called the Pavement--
+        or in Hebrew, Gabbatha.
+019:014 It was the day of Preparation for the Passover, about six o'clock
+        in the morning.  Then he said to the Jews, "There is your king!"
+019:015 This caused a storm of outcries, "Away with him!  Away with him!
+        Crucify him!"  "Am I to crucify your king?"  Pilate asked.
+        "We have no king, except Caesar," answered the High Priests.
+019:016 Then Pilate gave Him up to them to be crucified.
+        Accordingly they took Jesus;
+019:017 and He went out carrying His own cross, to the place
+        called Skull-place--or, in Hebrew, Golgotha--
+019:018 where they nailed Him to a cross, and two others at the same time,
+        one on each side and Jesus in the middle.
+019:019 And Pilate wrote a notice and had it fastened to the top of
+        the cross.  It ran thus:  JESUS THE NAZARENE, THE KING OF THE JEWS.
+019:020 Many of the Jews read this notice, for the place where Jesus
+        was crucified was near the city, and the notice was in
+        three languages--Hebrew, Latin, and Greek.
+019:021 This led the Jewish High Priests to remonstrate with Pilate.
+        "You should not write `The King of the Jews,'" they said,
+        "but that he claimed to be King of the Jews."
+019:022 "What I have written I have written," was Pilate's answer.
+019:023 So the soldiers, as soon as they had crucified Jesus, took His
+        garments, including His tunic, and divided them into four parts--
+        one part for each soldier.  The tunic was without seam,
+        woven from the top in one piece.
+019:024 So they said to one another, "Do not let us tear it.
+        Let us draw lots for it."  This happened that the Scripture
+        might be fulfilled which says, "They shared my garments
+        among them, and drew lots for my clothing."  That was just
+        what the soldiers did.
+019:025 Now standing close to the cross of Jesus were His mother and His
+        mother's sister, Mary the wife of Clopas, and Mary of Magdala.
+019:026 So Jesus, seeing His mother, and seeing the disciple whom He
+        loved standing near, said to His mother, "Behold, your son!"
+019:027 Then He said to the disciple, "Behold, your mother!"
+        And from that time the disciple received her into his own home.
+019:028 After this, Jesus, knowing that everything was now brought
+        to an end, said--that the Scripture might be fulfilled,
+        "I am thirsty."
+019:029 There was a jar of wine standing there.  With this wine they
+        filled a sponge, put it on the end of a stalk of hyssop,
+        and lifted it to His mouth.
+019:030 As soon as Jesus had taken the wine, He said, "It is finished."
+        And then, bowing His head, He yielded up His spirit.
+019:031 Meanwhile the Jews, because it was the day of Preparation
+        for the Passover, and in order that the bodies might not remain
+        on the crosses during the Sabbath (for that Sabbath was one
+        of special solemnity), requested Pilate to have the legs
+        of the dying men broken, and the bodies removed.
+019:032 Accordingly the soldiers came and broke the legs of the first
+        man and also of the other who had been crucified with Jesus.
+019:033 Then they came to Jesus Himself:  but when they saw that He
+        was already dead, they refrained from breaking His legs.
+019:034 One of the soldiers, however, made a thrust at His side
+        with a lance, and immediately blood and water flowed out.
+019:035 This statement is the testimony of an eye-witness, and it is true.
+        He knows that he is telling the truth--in order that you
+        also may believe.
+019:036 For all this took place that the Scripture might be fulfilled
+        which declares, "Not one of His bones shall be broken."
+019:037 And again another Scripture says, "They shall look on Him whom
+        they have pierced."
+019:038 After this, Joseph of Arimathaea, who was a disciple of Jesus,
+        but for fear of the Jews a secret disciple, asked Pilate's permission
+        to carry away the body of Jesus; and Pilate gave him leave.
+        So he came and removed the body.
+019:039 Nicodemus too--he who at first had visited Jesus by night--
+        came bringing a mixture of myrrh and aloes, in weight about
+        seventy or eighty pounds.
+019:040 Taking down the body they wrapped it in linen cloths along
+        with the spices, in accordance with the Jewish mode of
+        preparing for burial.
+019:041 There was a garden at the place where Jesus had been crucified,
+        and in the garden a new tomb, in which no one had yet been buried.
+019:042 Therefore, because it was the day of Preparation for
+        the Jewish Passover, and the tomb was close at hand,
+        they put Jesus there.
+020:001 On the first day of the week, very early, while it was still dark,
+        Mary of Magdala came to the tomb and saw that the stone had
+        been removed from it.
+020:002 So she ran, as fast as she could, to find Simon Peter
+        and the other disciple--the one who was dear to Jesus--
+        and to tell them, "They have taken the Master out of the tomb,
+        and we do not know where they have put Him."
+020:003 Peter and the other disciple started at once to go to the tomb,
+        both of them running,
+020:004 but the other disciple ran faster than Peter and reached it
+        before he did.
+020:005 Stooping and looking in, he saw the linen cloths lying there
+        on the ground, but he did not go in.
+020:006 Simon Peter, however, also came, following him, and entered the tomb.
+        There on the ground he saw the cloths;
+020:007 and the towel, which had been placed over the face of Jesus,
+        not lying with the cloths, but folded up and put by itself.
+020:008 Then the other disciple, who had been the first to come to the tomb,
+        also went in and saw and was convinced.
+020:009 For until now they had not understood the inspired teaching,
+        that He must rise again from among the dead.
+020:010 Then they went away and returned home.
+020:011 Meanwhile Mary remained standing near the tomb, weeping aloud.
+        She did not enter the tomb, but as she wept she stooped
+        and looked in,
+020:012 and saw two angels clothed in white raiment, sitting one at
+        the head and one at the feet where the body of Jesus had been.
+020:013 They spoke to her.  "Why are you weeping?" they asked.
+        "Because," she replied, "they have taken away my Lord,
+        and I do not know where they have put him."
+020:014 While she was speaking, she turned round and saw Jesus
+        standing there, but did not recognize Him.
+020:015 "Why are you weeping?"  He asked; "who are you looking for?"
+        She, supposing that He was the gardener, replied, "Sir, if you
+        have carried him away, tell me where you have put him and I
+        will remove him."
+020:016 "Mary!" said Jesus.  She turned to Him.  "Rabboni!" she cried
+        in Hebrew:  the word means `Teacher!'
+020:017 "Do not cling to me," said Jesus, "for I have not yet ascended
+        to the Father.  But take this message to my brethren:
+        `I am ascending to my Father and your Father, to my God
+        and your God.'"
+020:018 Mary of Magdala came and brought word to the disciples.
+        "I have seen the Master," she said.  And she told them that He
+        had said these things to her.
+020:019 On that same first day of the week, when it was evening and,
+        for fear of the Jews, the doors of the house where the
+        disciples were, were locked, Jesus came and stood in their midst,
+        and said to them, "Peace be to you!"
+020:020 Having said this He showed them His hands and also His side;
+        and the disciples were filled with joy at seeing the Master.
+020:021 A second time, therefore, He said to them, "Peace be to you!
+        As the Father sent me, I also now send you."
+020:022 Having said this He breathed upon them and said,
+        "Receive the Holy Spirit.
+020:023 If you remit the sins of any persons, they remain remitted to them.
+        If you bind fast the sins of any, they remain bound."
+020:024 Thomas, one of the twelve--surnamed `the Twin'--was not among
+        them when Jesus came.
+020:025 So the rest of the disciples told him, "We have seen
+        the Master!"  His reply was, "Unless I see in his hands
+        the wound made by the nails and put my finger into the wound,
+        and put my hand into his side, I will never believe it."
+020:026 A week later the disciples were again in the house, and Thomas
+        was with them, when Jesus came--though the doors were locked--
+        and stood in their midst, and said, "Peace be to you."
+020:027 Then He said to Thomas, "Bring your finger here and feel my hands;
+        bring you hand and put it into my side; and do not be ready
+        to disbelieve but to believe."
+020:028 "My Lord and my God!" replied Thomas.
+020:029 "Because you have seen me," replied Jesus, "you have believed.
+        Blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed."
+020:030 There were also a great number of other signs which Jesus
+        performed in the presence of the disciples, which are not
+        recorded in this book.
+020:031 But these have been recorded in order that you may believe that He
+        is the Christ, the Son of God, and that, through believing,
+        you may have Life through His name.
+021:001 After this, Jesus again showed Himself to the disciples.
+        It was at the Lake of Tiberias.  The circumstances were as follows.
+021:002 Simon Peter was with Thomas, called the Twin, Nathanael of
+        Cana in Galilee, the sons of Zabdi, and two others of
+        the Master's disciples.
+021:003 Simon Peter said to them, "I am going fishing."  "We will go too,"
+        said they.  So they set out and went on board their boat;
+        but they caught nothing that night.
+021:004 When, however, day was now dawning, Jesus stood on the beach,
+        though the disciples did not know that it was Jesus.
+021:005 He called to them.  "Children," He said, "have you any
+        food there?"  "No," they answered.
+021:006 "Throw the net in on the right hand side," He said, "and you
+        will find fish."  So they threw the net in, and now they
+        could scarcely drag it along for the quantity of fish.
+021:007 This made the disciple whom Jesus loved say to Peter, "It is
+        the Master."  Simon Peter therefore, when he heard the words,
+        "It is the Master," drew on his fisherman's shirt--
+        for he had not been wearing it--put on his girdle, and sprang
+        into the water.
+021:008 But the rest of the disciples came in the small boat (for they
+        were not far from land--only about a hundred yards off),
+        dragging the net full of fish.
+021:009 As soon as they landed, they saw a charcoal fire burning there,
+        with fish broiling on it, and bread close by.
+021:010 Jesus told them to fetch some of the fish which they
+        had just caught.
+021:011 So Simon Peter went on board the boat and drew the net ashore
+        full of large fish, 153 in number; and yet, although there
+        were so many, the net had not broken.
+021:012 "Come this way and have breakfast," said Jesus.  But not one
+        of the disciples ventured to question Him as to who He was,
+        for they felt sure that it was the Master.
+021:013 Then Jesus came and took the bread and gave them some,
+        and the fish in the same way.
+021:014 This was now the third occasion on which Jesus showed Himself
+        to the disciples after He had risen from among the dead.
+021:015 When they had finished breakfast, Jesus asked Simon Peter, "Simon,
+        son of John, do you love me more than these others do?"
+        "Yes, Master," was his answer; "you know that you are dear to me."
+        "Then feed my lambs," replied Jesus.
+021:016 Again a second time He asked him, "Simon, son of John,
+        do you love me?"  "Yes, Master," he said, "you know that you
+        are dear to me."  "Then be a shepherd to my sheep," He said.
+021:017 A third time Jesus put the question:  "Simon, son of John,
+        am I dear to you?"  It grieved Peter that Jesus asked him
+        the third time, "Am I dear to you?"  "Master," he replied,
+        "you know everything, you can see that you are dear to me."
+        "Then feed my much-loved sheep," said Jesus.
+021:018 "In most solemn truth I tell you that whereas, when you were young,
+        you used to put on your girdle and walk whichever way you chose,
+        when you have grown old you will stretch out your arms
+        and some one else will put a girdle round you and carry you
+        where you have no wish to go."
+021:019 This He said to indicate the kind of death by which that disciple
+        would bring glory to God; and after speaking thus He said
+        to him, "Follow me."
+021:020 Peter turned round and noticed the disciple whom Jesus
+        loved following--the one who at the supper had leaned
+        back on His breast and had asked, "Master, who is it that
+        is betraying you?"
+021:021 On seeing him, Peter asked Jesus, "And, Master, what about him?"
+021:022 "If I desire him to remain till I come," replied Jesus,
+        "what concern is that of yours?  You, yourself, must follow me."
+021:023 Hence the report spread among the brethren that that disciple
+        would never die.  Yet Jesus did not say, "He is not to die,"
+        but, "If I desire him to remain till I come, what concern
+        is that of yours?"
+021:024 That is the disciple who gives his testimony as to these matters,
+        and has written this history; and we know that his
+        testimony is true.
+021:025 But there are also many other things which Jesus did--so vast
+        a number indeed that if they were all described in detail,
+        I suppose that the world itself could not contain the books
+        that would have to be written.

+
+Project Gutenberg eBooks are often created from several printed
+editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the US
+unless a copyright notice is included.  Thus, we usually do not
+keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.
+
+We are now trying to release all our eBooks one year in advance
+of the official release dates, leaving time for better editing.
+Please be encouraged to tell us about any error or corrections,
+even years after the official publication date.
+
+Please note neither this listing nor its contents are final til
+midnight of the last day of the month of any such announcement.
+The official release date of all Project Gutenberg eBooks is at
+Midnight, Central Time, of the last day of the stated month.  A
+preliminary version may often be posted for suggestion, comment
+and editing by those who wish to do so.
+
+Most people start at our Web sites at:

+
+These Web sites include award-winning information about Project
+Gutenberg, including how to donate, how to help produce our new
+eBooks, and how to subscribe to our email newsletter (free!).
+
+
+Those of you who want to download any eBook before announcement
+can get to them as follows, and just download by date.  This is
+also a good way to get them instantly upon announcement, as the

+Information about Project Gutenberg (one page)
+
+We produce about two million dollars for each hour we work.  The
+time it takes us, a rather conservative estimate, is fifty hours
+to get any eBook selected, entered, proofread, edited, copyright
+searched and analyzed, the copyright letters written, etc.   Our
+projected audience is one hundred million readers.  If the value
+per text is nominally estimated at one dollar then we produce $2
+million dollars per hour in 2002 as we release over 100 new text
+files per month:  1240 more eBooks in 2001 for a total of 4000+
+We are already on our way to trying for 2000 more eBooks in 2002
+If they reach just 1-2% of the world's population then the total
+will reach over half a trillion eBooks given away by year's end.
+
+The Goal of Project Gutenberg is to Give Away 1 Trillion eBooks!
+This is ten thousand titles each to one hundred million readers,
+which is only about 4% of the present number of computer users.
