Then they wanted to take him into the boat, and immediately the boat came to the land where they had been heading.

Then the Jews who were hostile to Jesus began complaining about him because he said, “I am the bread that came down from heaven,”

Then the Jews who were hostile to Jesus began to argue with one another, “How can this man give us his flesh to eat?”

Then many of his disciples, when they heard these things, said, “This is a difficult saying! Who can understand it?”

So Jesus replied, “My time has not yet arrived, but you are ready at any opportunity!

So Jesus replied, “My teaching is not from me, but from the one who sent me.

So then they tried to seize Jesus, but no one laid a hand on him, because his time had not yet come.

Then the officers returned to the chief priests and Pharisees, who said to them, “Why didn’t you bring him back with you?”

So the Jewish leaders began to say, “Perhaps he is going to kill himself, because he says, ‘Where I am going you cannot come.’”

Thus I told you that you will die in your sins. For unless you believe that I am he, you will die in your sins.”

So they said to him, “Who are you?” Jesus replied, “What I have told you from the beginning.

Then Jesus said to those Judeans who had believed him, “If you continue to follow my teaching, you are really my disciples

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.
