It is written in your law that <i>the testimony of two men is truei>.<n id="1" />

Jesus replied,<n id="1" /> &#8220;The time<n id="2" /> has come for the Son of Man to be glorified.<n id="3" />

(Now it was Caiaphas who had advised<n id="1" /> the Jewish leaders<n id="2" /> that it was to their advantage that one man die for the people.)<n id="3" />p>

So Pilate came outside to them and said, &#8220;What accusation<n id="1" /> do you bring against this man?&#8221;<n id="2" />

and said to him, &#8220;Everyone<n id="1" /> serves the good wine first, and then the cheaper<n id="2" /> wine when the guests<n id="3" /> are drunk. You have kept the good wine until now!&#8221;

<p class="bodytext">John replied,<n id="1" /> &#8220;No one can receive anything unless it has been given to him from heaven.

&#8220;Come, see a man who told me everything I ever did. Surely he can&#8217;t be the Messiah,<n id="1" /> can he?&#8221;<n id="2" />

Immediately the man was healed,<n id="1" /> and he picked up his mat<n id="2" /> and started walking. (Now that day was a Sabbath.)<n id="3" />p>

<p class="bodytext">Now when the people saw the miraculous sign that Jesus<n id="1" /> performed, they began to say to one another, &#8220;This is certainly <i>the Propheti><n id="2" /> <i>who is to come into the worldi>.&#8221;<n id="3" />

However, because Moses gave you the practice of circumcision<n id="1" /> (not that it came from Moses, but from the forefathers), you circumcise a male child<n id="2" /> on the Sabbath.

&#8220;Our law doesn&#8217;t condemn<n id="1" /> a man unless it first hears from him and learns<n id="2" /> what he is doing, does it?&#8221;<n id="3" />

But now you are trying<n id="1" /> to kill me, a man who has told you<n id="2" /> the truth I heard from God. Abraham did not do this!<n id="3" />

<t /><p class="bodytext">Jesus heard that they had thrown him out, so he found the man<n id="1" /> and said to him, &#8220;Do you believe in the Son of Man?&#8221;<n id="2" />

The Jewish leaders<n id="1" /> replied,<n id="2" /> &#8220;We are not going to stone you for a good deed<n id="3" /> but for blasphemy,<n id="4" /> because<n id="5" /> you, a man, are claiming to be God.&#8221;<n id="6" />p>

So the chief priests and the Pharisees<n id="1" /> called the council<n id="2" /> together and said, &#8220;What are we doing? For this man is performing many miraculous signs.

You do not realize<n id="1" /> that it is more to your advantage to have one man<n id="2" /> die for the people than for the whole nation to perish.&#8221;<n id="3" />

<t /><p class="bodytext">When<n id="1" /> Judas<n id="2" /> had gone out, Jesus said, &#8220;Now the Son of Man is glorified, and God is glorified in him.

So Jesus came outside, wearing the crown of thorns and the purple robe.<n id="1" /> Pilate<n id="2" /> said to them, &#8220;Look, here is the man!&#8221;<n id="3" />

<p class="bodytext">Then some of the Pharisees began to say,<n id="1" /> &#8220;This man is not from God, because he does not observe<n id="2" /> the Sabbath.&#8221;<n id="3" /> But others said, &#8220;How can a man who is a sinner perform<n id="4" /> such miraculous signs?&#8221; Thus there was a division<n id="5" /> among them.

<p class="bodytext">Then the crowd responded,<n id="1" /> &#8220;We have heard from the law that <i>the Christi><n id="2" /> <i>will remain foreveri>.<n id="3" /> How<n id="4" /> can you say, &#8216;The Son of Man must be lifted up&#8217;? Who is this Son of Man?&#8221;
