Jesus Teaches at the Festival

John 7:14-24

Chapter 7
14 But when the festival was already halfway through, Jesus went up into the temple and was teaching. 15 The Jews therefore were marveling, saying, "How does this man know the Scriptures, when he has not studied?" 16 So Jesus answered them and said, "My teaching is not mine, but his who sent me." 17 If anyone wishes to do his will, he will know about the teaching whether it is from God or whether I speak from myself. 18 The one who speaks from himself seeks his own glory; but the one who seeks the glory of the one who sent him, this one is true, and unrighteousness is not in him. 19 "Has not Moses given you the law? Yet none of you keeps the law. Why do you seek to kill me?" 20 The crowd answered, “You have a demon. Who is seeking to kill you?” 21 Jesus answered them, “I did one work, and you all are marveling.” 22 For this reason Moses has given you circumcision—not that it is from Moses, but from the fathers—and on the Sabbath you circumcise a man. 23 If a man receives circumcision on the Sabbath so that the Law of Moses might not be broken, are you angry with me because I made a man whole on the Sabbath? 24 Do not judge by appearances, but judge with righteous judgment.
