I am telling you the things I have seen while with the Father; as for you, practice the things you have heard from the Father!”

Then the neighbors and the people who had seen him previously as a beggar began saying, “Is this not the man who used to sit and beg?”

So again they asked the man who used to be blind, “What do you say about him, since he caused you to see?” “He is a prophet,” the man replied.

Now the Jewish religious leaders refused to believe that he had really been blind and had gained his sight until at last they summoned the parents of the man who had become able to see.

They asked the parents, “Is this your son, whom you say was born blind? Then how does he now see?”

So his parents replied, “We know that this is our son and that he was born blind.

He replied, “I do not know whether he is a sinner. I do know one thing – that although I was blind, now I can see.”

When Jesus saw her weeping, and the people who had come with her weeping, he was intensely moved in spirit and greatly distressed.

Jesus, intensely moved again, came to the tomb. (Now it was a cave, and a stone was placed across it.)

So they took away the stone. Jesus looked upward and said, “Father, I thank you that you have listened to me.

Then many of the people, who had come with Mary and had seen the things Jesus did, believed in him.

So the chief priests and the Pharisees called the council together and said, “What are we doing? For this man is performing many miraculous signs.

Thus they were looking for Jesus, and saying to one another as they stood in the temple courts, “What do you think? That he won’t come to the feast?”

Then, six days before the Passover, Jesus came to Bethany, where Lazarus lived, whom he had raised from the dead.

So they prepared a dinner for Jesus there. Martha was serving, and Lazarus was among those present at the table with him.

So the crowd who had been with him when he called Lazarus out of the tomb and raised him from the dead were continuing to testify about it.

Thus the Pharisees said to one another, “You see that you can do nothing. Look, the world has run off after him!”

So these approached Philip, who was from Bethsaida in Galilee, and requested, “Sir, we would like to see Jesus.”

The crowd that stood there and heard the voice said that it had thundered. Others said that an angel had spoken to him.

And I know that his commandment is eternal life. Thus the things I say, I say just as the Father has told me.”
