Now this happened to fulfill the word that is written in their law, ‘They hated me without reason.’

Jesus replied, “I told you that I am he. If you are looking for me, let these men go.”

Jesus replied, “Are you saying this on your own initiative, or have others told you about me?”

But one of the soldiers pierced his side with a spear, and blood and water flowed out immediately.

If you forgive anyone’s sins, they are forgiven; if you retain anyone’s sins, they are retained.”

So Jesus said to them, “Children, you don’t have any fish, do you?” They replied, “No.”

For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world should be saved through him.

But the one who practices the truth comes to the light, so that it may be plainly evident that his deeds have been done in God.

So the Jewish leaders said to the man who had been healed, “It is the Sabbath, and you are not permitted to carry your mat.”

But the man who had been healed did not know who it was, for Jesus had slipped out, since there was a crowd in that place.

(Now they were asking this in an attempt to trap him, so that they could bring charges against him.) Jesus bent down and wrote on the ground with his finger.

(Jesus spoke these words near the offering box while he was teaching in the temple courts. No one seized him because his time had not yet come.)

Jesus answered, “Neither this man nor his parents sinned, but he was born blind so that the acts of God may be revealed through what happens to him.

So the Pharisees asked him again how he had gained his sight. He replied, “He put mud on my eyes and I washed, and now I am able to see.”

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.

The Jewish leaders replied, “We are not going to stone you for a good deed but for blasphemy, because you, a man, are claiming to be God.”

do you say about the one whom the Father set apart and sent into the world, ‘You are blaspheming,’ because I said, ‘I am the Son of God’?

(Now it was Mary who anointed the Lord with perfumed oil and wiped his feet dry with her hair, whose brother Lazarus was sick.)

But some of them said, “This is the man who caused the blind man to see! Couldn’t he have done something to keep Lazarus from dying?”

I knew that you always listen to me, but I said this for the sake of the crowd standing around here, that they may believe that you sent me.”
