11Then the Jews were seeking Him at the feast, and said, “Where is He?”
12And there was much murmuring among the crowds concerning Him. Some on the one hand were saying, “He is a good Man”; while others were saying, “No, on the contrary, He deceives the people.”
13However, no one spoke openly of Him for fear of the Jews.
14But now about the middle of the feast Jesus went up into the temple and began to teach.
15And the Jews were marveling, saying, “How has this Man become learned, since He has not been educated?”
16Therefore Jesus answered them and said, “My doctrine is not Mine, but His who sent Me.
17If anyone desires to do His will, he will know about the doctrine, whether it is from God, or whether I am speaking on My own authority.
18He who speaks from himself is seeking his own glory; but He who seeks the glory of the One who sent Him is true, and there is no unrighteousness in Him.
19Has not Moses given you the law, yet none of you keeps the law? Why are you seeking to kill Me?”
20The crowd answered and said, “You have a demon. Who is seeking to kill You?”
21Jesus answered and said to them, “I did one work, and you all marvel.
22Because of this Moses has given you circumcision (not that it is from Moses, but from the fathers), and you circumcise a man on the Sabbath.
23If a man receives circumcision on the Sabbath, so that the law of Moses should not be broken, are you angry with Me because I made a man completely well on the Sabbath?
24Do not judge according to appearance, but judge with righteous judgment.”
25Therefore some of the people of Jerusalem were saying, “Is this not He whom they are seeking to kill?
26And look! He is speaking publicly, and they say nothing to Him. Can it be that the rulers know indeed that this is truly the Messiah?
27However, we know where this Man is from; but whenever the Messiah comes, no one knows where He is from.”
28Therefore Jesus cried out, as He was teaching in the temple, saying, “You both know Me, and you know where I am from; and I have not come of my own accord, but He who sent Me is true, whom you do not know.
29I know Him, for I am from Him, and He sent Me.”
30Therefore they were seeking to arrest Him; but no one laid a hand on Him, because His hour had not yet come.
31But many of the crowd believed in Him, and were saying, “When the Messiah comes, will He do more signs than these which this Man has done?”
32The Pharisees heard the crowd murmuring these things about Him, and the Pharisees and the chief priests sent attendants so that they might arrest Him.
33Then Jesus said, “Yet a little while am I with you, and then I go to Him who sent Me.
34You will seek Me and you will not find Me, and where I am you cannot come.”
35Therefore the Jews said among themselves, “Where does this man intend to go that we will not find Him? Does He intend to go into the Dispersion among the Greeks and teach the Greeks?
36What is this thing which He said, ‘You will seek Me and you will not find Me, and where I am you cannot come’?”
37Now on the last day, the great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried out, saying, “If anyone thirsts, let him come to Me and drink.
