But when his brothers had gone up to the feast, then he also went up, not publicly, but as it were in secret.

The Jews therefore sought him at the feast, and said, "Where is he?"

There was much murmuring among the multitudes concerning him. Some said, "He is a good man." Others said, "Not so, but he leads the multitude astray."

Yet no one spoke openly of him for fear of the Jews.

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

The Jews therefore marveled, saying, "How does this man know letters, having never been educated?"

Jesus therefore answered them, "My teaching is not mine, but his who sent me.

If anyone desires to do his will, he will know about the teaching, whether it is from God, or if I am speaking from myself.

He who speaks from himself seeks his own glory, but he who seeks the glory of him who sent him, the same is true, and no unrighteousness is in him.

Didn't Moses give you the law, and yet none of you keeps the law? Why do you seek to kill me?"

The multitude answered, "You have a demon! Who seeks to kill you?"

Jesus answered them, "I did one work, and you all marvel because of it.

Moses has given you circumcision (not that it is of Moses, but of the fathers), and on the Sabbath you circumcise a boy.

If a boy receives circumcision on the Sabbath, that the law of Moses may not be broken, are you angry with me, because I made a man every bit whole on the Sabbath?

Don't judge according to appearance, but judge righteous judgment."

Therefore some of them of Jerusalem said, "Isn't this he whom they seek to kill?

Behold, he speaks openly, and they say nothing to him. Can it be that the rulers indeed know that this is truly the Christ?

However we know where this man comes from, but when the Christ comes, no one will know where he comes from."

Jesus therefore cried out in the temple, teaching and saying, "You both know me, and know where I am from. I have not come of myself, but he who sent me is true, whom you don't know.

I know him, because I am from him, and he sent me."
