# Chapter 8
|
||||
1.
|
||||
1. But Jesus went to the Mount of Olives.
|
||||
|
||||
An Adulteress Forgiven
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
2. At dawn he went to the temple again, and all the people were coming to him. He sat down and began to teach them.
|
||||
|
||||
3. Then the scribes and the Pharisees brought a woman caught in adultery, making her stand in the center.
|
||||
4. "Teacher," they said to him, "this woman was caught in the act of committing adultery.
|
||||
5. In the law Moses commanded us to stone such women. So what do you say?"
|
||||
6. They asked this to trap him, in order that they might have evidence to accuse him.
|
||||
1 But Jesus went to the Mount of Olives.
|
||||
2 At dawn he went to the temple again, and all the people were coming to him. He sat down and began to teach them.
|
||||
3 Then the scribes and the Pharisees brought a woman caught in adultery, making her stand in the center.
|
||||
4 “Teacher,” they said to him, “this woman was caught in the act of committing adultery.
|
||||
5 In the law Moses commanded us to stone such women. So what do you say?”
|
||||
6 They asked this to trap him, in order that they might have evidence to accuse him.
|
||||
Jesus stooped down and started writing on the ground with his finger.
|
||||
7. When they persisted in questioning him, he stood up and said to them, *"The one without sin among you should be the first to throw a stone at her."*
|
||||
8. Then he stooped down again and continued writing on the ground.
|
||||
9. When they heard this, they left one by one, starting with the older men. Only he was left, with the woman in the center.
|
||||
10. When Jesus stood up, he said to her, *"Woman, where are they? Has no one condemned you?"*
|
||||
|
||||
11. "No one, Lord," she answered.
|
||||
*"Neither do I condemn you," said Jesus. "Go, and from now on do not sin anymore."*]
|
||||
The Light of the World
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
12. Jesus spoke to them again: *"I am the light of the world. Anyone who follows me will never walk in the darkness but will have the light of life."*
|
||||
|
||||
13. So the Pharisees said to him, "You are testifying about yourself. Your testimony is not valid."
|
||||
|
||||
14. *"Even if I testify about myself," Jesus replied, "my testimony is true, because I know where I came from and where I'm going. But you don't know where I come from or where I'm going.*
|
||||
15. *You judge by human standards. I judge no one.*
|
||||
16. *And if I do judge, my judgment is true, because it is not I alone who judge, but I and the Father who sent me.*
|
||||
17. *Even in your law it is written that the testimony of two witnesses is true.*
|
||||
18. *I am the one who testifies about myself, and the Father who sent me testifies about me."*
|
||||
|
||||
19. Then they asked him, "Where is your Father?"
|
||||
*"You know neither me nor my Father," Jesus answered. "If you knew me, you would also know my Father."*
|
||||
20. He spoke these words by the treasury, while teaching in the temple. But no one seized him, because his hour had not yet come.
|
||||
|
||||
Jesus Predicts His Departure
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
21. Then he said to them again, *"I'm going away; you will look for me, and you will die in your sin. Where I'm going, you cannot come."*
|
||||
|
||||
22. So the Jews said again, "He won't kill himself, will he, since he says, *'Where I'm going, you cannot come'*?"
|
||||
|
||||
23. *"You are from below," he told them, "I am from above. You are of this world; I am not of this world.*
|
||||
24. *Therefore I told you that you will die in your sins. For if you do not believe that I am he, you will die in your sins."*
|
||||
|
||||
25. "Who are you?" they questioned.
|
||||
*"Exactly what I've been telling you from the very beginning,"* Jesus told them.
|
||||
26. *"I have many things to say and to judge about you, but the one who sent me is true, and what I have heard from him--these things I tell the world."*
|
||||
|
||||
27. They did not know he was speaking to them about the Father.
|
||||
28. So Jesus said to them, *"When you lift up the Son of Man, then you will know that I am he, and that I do nothing on my own. But just as the Father taught me, I say these things.*
|
||||
29. *The one who sent me is with me. He has not left me alone, because I always do what pleases him."*
|
||||
Truth and Freedom
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
30. As he was saying these things, many believed in him.
|
||||
|
||||
31. Then Jesus said to the Jews who had believed him, *"If you continue in my word, you really are my disciples.*
|
||||
32. *You will know the truth, and the truth will set you free."*
|
||||
|
||||
33. "We are descendants of Abraham," they answered him, "and we have never been enslaved to anyone. How can you say, *'You will become free'*?"
|
||||
|
||||
34. Jesus responded, *"Truly I tell you, everyone who commits sin is a slave of sin.*
|
||||
35. *A slave does not remain in the household forever, but a son does remain forever.*
|
||||
36. *So if the Son sets you free, you really will be free.*
|
||||
37. *I know you are descendants of Abraham, but you are trying to kill me because my word has no place among you.*
|
||||
38. *I speak what I have seen in the presence of the Father; so then, you do what you have heard from your father."*
|
||||
|
||||
39. "Our father is Abraham," they replied.
|
||||
*"If you were Abraham's children," Jesus told them, "you would do what Abraham did.*
|
||||
40. *But now you are trying to kill me, a man who has told you the truth that I heard from God. Abraham did not do this.*
|
||||
41. *You're doing what your father does."*
|
||||
"We weren't born of sexual immorality," they said. "We have one Father--God."
|
||||
|
||||
42. Jesus said to them, *"If God were your Father, you would love me, because I came from God and I am here. For I didn't come on my own, but he sent me.*
|
||||
43. *Why don't you understand what I say? Because you cannot listen to my word.*
|
||||
44. *You are of your father the devil, and you want to carry out your father's desires. He was a murderer from the beginning and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he tells a lie, he speaks from his own nature, because he is a liar and the father of lies.*
|
||||
45. *Yet because I tell the truth, you do not believe me.*
|
||||
46. *Who among you can convict me of sin? If I am telling the truth, why don't you believe me?*
|
||||
47. *The one who is from God listens to God's words. This is why you don't listen, because you are not from God."*
|
||||
Jesus and Abraham
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
48. The Jews responded to him, "Aren't we right in saying that you're a Samaritan and have a demon?"
|
||||
|
||||
49. *"I do not have a demon," Jesus answered. "On the contrary, I honor my Father and you dishonor me.*
|
||||
50. *I do not seek my own glory; there is one who seeks it and judges.*
|
||||
51. *Truly I tell you, if anyone keeps my word, he will never see death."*
|
||||
|
||||
52. Then the Jews said, "Now we know you have a demon. Abraham died and so did the prophets. You say, *'If anyone keeps my word, he will never taste death.'*
|
||||
53. Are you greater than our father Abraham who died? And the prophets died. Who do you claim to be?"
|
||||
|
||||
54. *"If I glorify myself," Jesus answered, "my glory is nothing. My Father--about whom you say, 'He is our God'--he is the one who glorifies me.*
|
||||
55. *You do not know him, but I know him. If I were to say I don't know him, I would be a liar like you. But I do know him, and I keep his word.*
|
||||
56. *Your father Abraham rejoiced to see my day; he saw it and was glad."*
|
||||
|
||||
57. The Jews replied, "You aren't fifty years old yet, and you've seen Abraham?"
|
||||
|
||||
58. Jesus said to them, *"Truly I tell you, before Abraham was, I am."*
|
||||
|
||||
59. So they picked up stones to throw at him. But Jesus was hidden and went out of the temple.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
7 When they persisted in questioning him, he stood up and said to them, “The one without sin among you should be the first to throw a stone at her.”
|
||||
8 Then he stooped down again and continued writing on the ground.
|
||||
9 When they heard this, they left one by one, starting with the older men. Only he was left, with the woman in the center.
|
||||
10 When Jesus stood up, he said to her, “Woman, where are they? Has no one condemned you?”
|
||||
11 “No one, Lord,” she answered.
|
||||
“Neither do I condemn you,” said Jesus. “Go, and from now on do not sin anymore.”]
|
||||
12 Jesus spoke to them again: “I am the light of the world. Anyone who follows me will never walk in the darkness but will have the light of life.”
|
||||
13 So the Pharisees said to him, “You are testifying about yourself. Your testimony is not valid.”
|
||||
14 “Even if I testify about myself,” Jesus replied, “my testimony is true, because I know where I came from and where I’m going. But you don’t know where I come from or where I’m going.
|
||||
15 You judge by human standards. I judge no one.
|
||||
16 And if I do judge, my judgment is true, because it is not I alone who judge, but I and the Father who sent me.
|
||||
17 Even in your law it is written that the testimony of two witnesses is true.
|
||||
18 I am the one who testifies about myself, and the Father who sent me testifies about me.”
|
||||
19 Then they asked him, “Where is your Father?”
|
||||
“You know neither me nor my Father,” Jesus answered. “If you knew me, you would also know my Father.”
|
||||
20 He spoke these words by the treasury, while teaching in the temple. But no one seized him, because his hour had not yet come.
|

21 Then he said to them again, “I’m going away; you will look for me, and you will die in your sin. Where I’m going, you cannot come.”
|
||||
22 So the Jews said again, “He won’t kill himself, will he, since he says, ‘Where I’m going, you cannot come’?”
|
||||
23 “You are from below,” he told them, “I am from above. You are of this world; I am not of this world.
|
||||
24 Therefore I told you that you will die in your sins. For if you do not believe that I am he, you will die in your sins.”
|
||||
25 “Who are you?” they questioned.
|
||||
“Exactly what I’ve been telling you from the very beginning,” Jesus told them.
|
||||
26 “I have many things to say and to judge about you, but the one who sent me is true, and what I have heard from him—these things I tell the world.”
|
||||
27 They did not know he was speaking to them about the Father.
|
||||
28 So Jesus said to them, “When you lift up the Son of Man, then you will know that I am he, and that I do nothing on my own. But just as the Father taught me, I say these things.
|

29 The one who sent me is with me. He has not left me alone, because I always do what pleases him.”
|

30 As he was saying these things, many believed in him.
|
||||
31 Then Jesus said to the Jews who had believed him, “If you continue in my word, you really are my disciples.
|
||||
32 You will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.”
|
||||
33 “We are descendants of Abraham,” they answered him, “and we have never been enslaved to anyone. How can you say, ‘You will become free’?”
|
||||
34 Jesus responded, “Truly I tell you, everyone who commits sin is a slave of sin.
|
||||
35 A slave does not remain in the household forever, but a son does remain forever.
|
||||
36 So if the Son sets you free, you really will be free.
|
||||
37 I know you are descendants of Abraham, but you are trying to kill me because my word has no place among you.
|
||||
38 I speak what I have seen in the presence of the Father; so then, you do what you have heard from your father.”
|
||||
39 “Our father is Abraham,” they replied.
|
||||
“If you were Abraham’s children,” Jesus told them, “you would do what Abraham did.
|
||||
40 But now you are trying to kill me, a man who has told you the truth that I heard from God. Abraham did not do this.
|
||||
41 You’re doing what your father does.”
|
||||
“We weren’t born of sexual immorality,” they said. “We have one Father—God.”
|
||||
42 Jesus said to them, “If God were your Father, you would love me, because I came from God and I am here. For I didn’t come on my own, but he sent me.
|
||||
43 Why don’t you understand what I say? Because you cannot listen to my word.
|
||||
44 You are of your father the devil, and you want to carry out your father’s desires. He was a murderer from the beginning and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he tells a lie, he speaks from his own nature, because he is a liar and the father of lies.
|

45 Yet because I tell the truth, you do not believe me.
|
||||
46 Who among you can convict me of sin? If I am telling the truth, why don’t you believe me?
|
||||
47 The one who is from God listens to God’s words. This is why you don’t listen, because you are not from God.”
|
||||
48 The Jews responded to him, “Aren’t we right in saying that you’re a Samaritan and have a demon?”
|
||||
49 “I do not have a demon,” Jesus answered. “On the contrary, I honor my Father and you dishonor me.
|
||||
50 I do not seek my own glory; there is one who seeks it and judges.
|
||||
51 Truly I tell you, if anyone keeps my word, he will never see death.”
|
||||
52 Then the Jews said, “Now we know you have a demon. Abraham died and so did the prophets. You say, ‘If anyone keeps my word, he will never taste death.’
|

53 Are you greater than our father Abraham who died? And the prophets died. Who do you claim to be?”
|

54 “If I glorify myself,” Jesus answered, “my glory is nothing. My Father—about whom you say, ‘He is our God’—he is the one who glorifies me.
|

55 You do not know him, but I know him. If I were to say I don’t know him, I would be a liar like you. But I do know him, and I keep his word.
|
||||
56 Your father Abraham rejoiced to see my day; he saw it and was glad.”
|
||||
57 The Jews replied, “You aren’t fifty years old yet, and you’ve seen Abraham?”
|
||||
58 Jesus said to them, “Truly I tell you, before Abraham was, I am.”
|
||||
59 So they picked up stones to throw at him. But Jesus was hidden and went out of the temple.
