John 7:12-19

¹²And there was much murmuring among the multitudes concerning him: some said, He is a good man; others said, Not so, but he leadeth the multitude astray.

¹³Yet no man spake openly of him for fear of the Jews.

¹⁴But when it was now the midst of the feast Jesus went up into the temple, and taught.

¹⁵The Jews therefore marvelled, saying, How knoweth this man letters, having never learned?

¹⁶Jesus therefore answered them, and said, My teaching is not mine, but his that sent me.

¹⁷If any man willeth to do his will, he shall know of the teaching, whether it is of God, or whether I speak from myself.

¹⁸He that speaketh from himself seeketh his own glory: but he that seeketh the glory of him that sent him, the same is true, and no unrighteousness is in him.

¹⁹Did not Moses give you the law, and yet none of you doeth the law? Why seek ye to kill me?
