For this reason 1the Jews were persecuting Jesus, because He was doing these things on the Sabbath.

Jesus' Equality with God
18 For this reason therefore 2the Jews 3were seeking all the more to kill Him, because He not only was breaking the Sabbath, but also was calling God His own Father, 4making Himself equal with God. 19 Therefore Jesus answered and was saying to them, "Truly, truly, I say to you, 5the Son can do nothing of Himself, unless it is something He sees the Father doing ; for whatever athe Father does, these things the Son also does in like manner.New American Standard Bible Copyright © 1960, 1962, 1968, 1971, 1972, 1973, 1975, 1977, 1995 by The Lockman Foundation, La Habra, California.
