Jesus replied,<n id="1" /> &#8220;If God were your Father, you would love me, for I have come from God and am now here.<n id="2" /> I<n id="3" /> have not come on my own initiative,<n id="4" /> but he<n id="5" /> sent me.

So the Pharisees asked him again how he had gained his sight.<n id="1" /> He replied,<n id="2" /> &#8220;He put mud<n id="3" /> on my eyes and I washed, and now<n id="4" /> I am able to see.&#8221;p>

The man replied,<n id="1" /> &#8220;This is a remarkable thing,<n id="2" /> that you don&#8217;t know where he comes from, and yet he caused me to see!<n id="3" />

Jesus replied,<n id="1" /> &#8220;I told you and you do not believe. The deeds<n id="2" /> I do in my Father&#8217;s name testify about me.

The one who had died came out, his feet and hands tied up with strips of cloth,<n id="1" /> and a cloth wrapped around his face.<n id="2" /> Jesus said to them, &#8220;Unwrap him<n id="3" /> and let him go.&#8221;p>

<p class="bodytext">So when Jesus<n id="1" /> had washed their feet and put his outer clothing back on, he took his place at the table<n id="2" /> again and said to them, &#8220;Do you understand<n id="3" /> what I have done for you?

If I had not performed<n id="1" /> among them the miraculous deeds<n id="2" /> that no one else did, they would not be guilty of sin.<n id="3" /> But now they have seen the deeds<n id="4" /> and have hated both me and my Father.<n id="5" />

<p class="bodytext">Jesus could see<n id="1" /> that they wanted to ask him about these things,<n id="2" /> so<n id="3" /> he said to them, &#8220;Are you asking<n id="4" /> each other about this &#8211; that I said, &#8216;In a little while you<n id="5" /> will not see me; again after a little while, you<n id="6" /> will see me&#8217;?

because I have given them the words you have given me. They<n id="1" /> accepted<n id="2" /> them<n id="3" /> and really<n id="4" /> understand<n id="5" /> that I came from you, and they believed that you sent me.

I have given them your word,<n id="1" /> and the world has hated them, because they do not belong to the world,<n id="2" /> just as I do not belong to the world.<n id="3" />

I in them and you in me &#8211; that they may be completely one,<n id="1" /> so that the world will know that you sent me, and you have loved them just as you have loved me.p>

<p class="bodytext">Pilate told them,<n id="1" /> &#8220;Take him yourselves and pass judgment on him<n id="2" /> according to your own law!&#8221;<n id="3" /> The Jewish leaders<n id="4" /> replied,<n id="5" /> &#8220;We cannot legally put anyone to death.&#8221;<n id="6" />

Pilate asked,<n id="1" /> &#8220;What is truth?&#8221;<n id="2" />p> <p class="bodytext">When he had said this he went back outside to the Jewish leaders<n id="3" /> and announced,<n id="4" /> &#8220;I find no basis for an accusation<n id="5" /> against him.

When the chief priests and their officers saw him, they shouted out, &#8220;Crucify<n id="1" /> him! Crucify him!&#8221;<n id="2" /> Pilate said,<n id="3" /> &#8220;You take him and crucify him!<n id="4" /> Certainly<n id="5" /> I find no reason for an accusation<n id="6" /> against him!&#8221;

<p class="bodytext">Then they<n id="1" /> shouted out, &#8220;Away with him! Away with him!<n id="2" /> Crucify<n id="3" /> him!&#8221; Pilate asked,<n id="4" /> &#8220;Shall I crucify your king?&#8221; The high priests replied, &#8220;We have no king except Caesar!&#8221;

So she went running<n id="1" /> to Simon Peter and the other disciple whom Jesus loved and told them, &#8220;They have taken the Lord from the tomb, and we don&#8217;t know where they have put him!&#8221;

Simon Peter told them, &#8220;I am going fishing.&#8221; &#8220;We will go with you,&#8221; they replied.<n id="1" /> They went out and got into the boat, but that night they caught nothing.p>

He told them, &#8220;Throw your net on the right side of the boat, and you will find some.&#8221;<n id="1" /> So they threw the net,<n id="2" /> and were not able to pull it in because of the large number of fish.p>

&#8220;Come, have breakfast,&#8221; Jesus said.<n id="1" /> But none of the disciples dared to ask him, &#8220;Who are you?&#8221; because they knew it was the Lord.

To the same apostles<n id="1" /> also, after his suffering,<n id="2" /> he presented himself alive with many convincing proofs. He was seen by them over a forty-day period<n id="3" /> and spoke about matters concerning the kingdom of God.
