But no man said anything about him openly for fear of the Jews.
14
Now in the middle of the feast Jesus went up to the Temple and was teaching.
15
Then the Jews were surprised and said, How has this man got knowledge of books? He has never been to school.
16
Jesus gave them this answer: It is not my teaching, but his who sent me.
17
If any man is ready to do God's pleasure he will have knowledge of the teaching and of where it comes from--from God or from myself.
18
The man whose words come from himself is looking for glory for himself, but he who is looking for the glory of him who sent him--that man is true and there is no evil in him.
19
Did not Moses give you the law? Even so, not one of you keeps the law. Why have you a desire to put me to death?
20
The people said in answer, You have an evil spirit: who has any desire to put you to death?
21
This was the answer of Jesus: I have done one work and you are all surprised at it.
22
Moses gave you circumcision--not that it comes from Moses, but from the fathers--and even on the Sabbath you give a child circumcision.
23
If a child is given circumcision on the Sabbath so that the law of Moses may not be broken, why are you angry with me because I made a man completely well on the Sabbath?
