Jesus in John

The Berean Standard Bible is shown; switch to the King James or American Standard Version.

1. 1:1

   In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

2. 1:7

   He came as a witness to testify about the Light, so that through him everyone might believe.

3. 1:8

   He himself was not the Light, but he came to testify about the Light.

4. 1:9

   The true Light, who gives light to everyone, was coming into the world.

5. 1:14

   The Word became flesh and made His dwelling among us. We have seen His glory, the glory of the one and only Son from the Father, full of grace and truth.

6. 1:17

   For the law was given through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus Christ.

7. 1:18

   No one has ever seen God, but the one and only Son, who is Himself God and is at the Father’s side, has made Him known.

8. 1:20

   He did not refuse to confess, but openly declared, “I am not the Christ.”

9. 1:23

   John replied in the words of Isaiah the prophet: “I am a voice of one calling in the wilderness, ‘Make straight the way for the Lord.’”

10. 1:25

    asked him, “Why then do you baptize, if you are not the Christ, nor Elijah, nor the Prophet?”

11. 1:29

    The next day John saw Jesus coming toward him and said, “Look, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!

12. 1:34

    I have seen and testified that this is the Son of God.”

13. 1:36

    When he saw Jesus walking by, he said, “Look, the Lamb of God!”

14. 1:37

    And when the two disciples heard him say this, they followed Jesus.

15. 1:38

    Jesus turned and saw them following. “What do you want?” He asked. They said to Him, “Rabbi” (which means Teacher), “where are You staying?”

16. 1:41

    He first found his brother Simon and told him, “We have found the Messiah” (which is translated as Christ).

17. 1:42

    Andrew brought him to Jesus, who looked at him and said, “You are Simon son of John. You will be called Cephas” (which is translated as Peter).

18. 1:43

    The next day Jesus decided to set out for Galilee. Finding Philip, He told him, “Follow Me.”

19. 1:45

    Philip found Nathanael and told him, “We have found the One Moses wrote about in the Law, the One the prophets foretold—Jesus of Nazareth, the son of Joseph.”

20. 1:47

    When Jesus saw Nathanael approaching, He said of him, “Here is a true Israelite, in whom there is no deceit.”

21. 1:48

    “How do You know me?” Nathanael asked. Jesus replied, “Before Philip called you, I saw you under the fig tree.”

22. 1:49

    “Rabbi,” Nathanael answered, “You are the Son of God! You are the King of Israel!”

23. 1:50

    Jesus said to him, “Do you believe just because I told you I saw you under the fig tree? You will see greater things than these.”

24. 1:51

    Then He declared, “Truly, truly, I tell you, you will all see heaven open and the angels of God ascending and descending on the Son of Man.”

25. 2:1

    On the third day a wedding took place at Cana in Galilee. Jesus’ mother was there,

26. 2:2

    and Jesus and His disciples had also been invited to the wedding.

27. 2:3

    When the wine ran out, Jesus’ mother said to Him, “They have no more wine.”

28. 2:4

    “Woman, what is that to you and to Me?” Jesus replied. “My hour has not yet come.”

29. 2:7

    Jesus told the servants, “Fill the jars with water.” So they filled them to the brim.

30. 2:11

    Jesus performed this, the first of His signs, at Cana in Galilee. He thus revealed His glory, and His disciples believed in Him.

31. 2:13

    When the Jewish Passover was near, Jesus went up to Jerusalem.

32. 2:19

    Jesus answered, “Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up again.”

33. 2:22

    After He was raised from the dead, His disciples remembered that He had said this. Then they believed the Scripture and the word that Jesus had spoken.

34. 2:24

    But Jesus did not entrust Himself to them, for He knew them all.

35. 3:2

    He came to Jesus at night and said, “Rabbi, we know that You are a teacher who has come from God. For no one could perform the signs You are doing if God were not with him.”

36. 3:3

    Jesus replied, “Truly, truly, I tell you, no one can see the kingdom of God unless he is born again.”

37. 3:5

    Jesus answered, “Truly, truly, I tell you, no one can enter the kingdom of God unless he is born of water and the Spirit.

38. 3:10

    “You are Israel’s teacher,” said Jesus, “and you do not understand these things?

39. 3:13

    No one has ascended into heaven except the One who descended from heaven—the Son of Man.

40. 3:14

    Just as Moses lifted up the snake in the wilderness, so the Son of Man must be lifted up,

41. 3:16

    For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that everyone who believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.

42. 3:17

    For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through Him.

43. 3:18

    Whoever believes in Him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe has already been condemned, because he has not believed in the name of God’s one and only Son.

44. 3:22

    After this, Jesus and His disciples went into the Judean countryside, where He spent some time with them and baptized.

45. 3:28

    You yourselves can testify that I said, ‘I am not the Christ, but am sent ahead of Him.’

46. 3:35

    The Father loves the Son and has placed all things in His hands.

47. 3:36

    Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life. Whoever rejects the Son will not see life. Instead, the wrath of God remains on him.”

48. 4:1

    When Jesus realized that the Pharisees were aware He was gaining and baptizing more disciples than John

49. 4:2

    (although it was not Jesus who baptized, but His disciples),

50. 4:6

    Since Jacob’s well was there, Jesus, weary from His journey, sat down by the well. It was about the sixth hour.

51. 4:7

    When a Samaritan woman came to draw water, Jesus said to her, “Give Me a drink.”

52. 4:10

    Jesus answered, “If you knew the gift of God and who is asking you for a drink, you would have asked Him, and He would have given you living water.”

53. 4:13

    Jesus said to her, “Everyone who drinks this water will be thirsty again.

54. 4:16

    Jesus told her, “Go, call your husband and come back.”

55. 4:17

    “I have no husband,” the woman replied. Jesus said to her, “You are correct to say that you have no husband.

56. 4:21

    “Believe Me, woman,” Jesus replied, “a time is coming when you will worship the Father neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem.

57. 4:24

    God is Spirit, and His worshipers must worship Him in spirit and in truth.”

58. 4:25

    The woman said, “I know that Messiah” (called Christ) “is coming. When He comes, He will explain everything to us.”

59. 4:26

    Jesus answered, “I who speak to you am He.”

60. 4:29

    “Come, see a man who told me everything I ever did. Could this be the Christ?”

61. 4:34

    Jesus explained, “My food is to do the will of Him who sent Me and to finish His work.

62. 4:42

    They said to the woman, “We now believe not only because of your words; we have heard for ourselves, and we know that this man truly is the Savior of the world.”

63. 4:44

    Now He Himself had testified that a prophet has no honor in his own hometown.

64. 4:46

    So once again He came to Cana in Galilee, where He had turned the water into wine. And there was a royal official whose son lay sick at Capernaum.

65. 4:47

    When he heard that Jesus had come from Judea to Galilee, he went and begged Him to come down and heal his son, who was about to die.

66. 4:48

    Jesus said to him, “Unless you people see signs and wonders, you will never believe.”

67. 4:50

    “Go,” said Jesus. “Your son will live.” The man took Jesus at His word and departed.

68. 4:53

    Then the father realized that this was the very hour in which Jesus had told him, “Your son will live.” And he and all his household believed.

69. 4:54

    This was now the second sign that Jesus performed after coming from Judea into Galilee.

70. 5:1

    Some time later there was a feast of the Jews, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.

71. 5:6

    When Jesus saw him lying there and realized that he had spent a long time in this condition, He asked him, “Do you want to get well?”

72. 5:8

    Then Jesus told him, “Get up, pick up your mat, and walk.”

73. 5:13

    But the man who was healed did not know who it was, for Jesus had slipped away while the crowd was there.

74. 5:14

    Afterward, Jesus found the man at the temple and said to him, “See, you have been made well. Stop sinning, or something worse may happen to you.”

75. 5:15

    And the man went away and told the Jews that it was Jesus who had made him well.

76. 5:16

    Now because Jesus was doing these things on the Sabbath, the Jews began to persecute Him.

77. 5:17

    But Jesus answered them, “To this very day My Father is at His work, and I too am working.”

78. 5:19

    So Jesus replied, “Truly, truly, I tell you, the Son can do nothing by Himself, unless He sees the Father doing it. For whatever the Father does, the Son also does.

79. 5:20

    The Father loves the Son and shows Him all He does. And to your amazement, He will show Him even greater works than these.

80. 5:21

    For just as the Father raises the dead and gives them life, so also the Son gives life to whom He wishes.

81. 5:22

    Furthermore, the Father judges no one, but has assigned all judgment to the Son,

82. 5:23

    so that all may honor the Son just as they honor the Father. Whoever does not honor the Son does not honor the Father who sent Him.

83. 5:25

    Truly, truly, I tell you, the hour is coming and has now come when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God, and those who hear will live.

84. 5:26

    For as the Father has life in Himself, so also He has granted the Son to have life in Himself.

85. 5:27

    And He has given Him authority to execute judgment, because He is the Son of Man.

86. 6:1

    After this, Jesus crossed to the other side of the Sea of Galilee (that is, the Sea of Tiberias).

87. 6:3

    Then Jesus went up on the mountain and sat down with His disciples.

88. 6:5

    When Jesus looked up and saw a large crowd coming toward Him, He said to Philip, “Where can we buy bread for these people to eat?”

89. 6:10

    “Have the people sit down,” Jesus said. Now there was plenty of grass in that place, so the men sat down, about five thousand of them.

90. 6:11

    Then Jesus took the loaves and the fish, gave thanks, and distributed to those who were seated as much as they wanted.

91. 6:14

    When the people saw the sign that Jesus had performed, they began to say, “Truly this is the Prophet who is to come into the world.”

92. 6:15

    Then Jesus, realizing that they were about to come and make Him king by force, withdrew again to a mountain by Himself.

93. 6:17

    got into a boat, and started across the sea to Capernaum. It was already dark, and Jesus had not yet gone out to them.

94. 6:19

    When they had rowed about three or four miles, they saw Jesus approaching the boat, walking on the sea—and they were terrified.

95. 6:22

    The next day, the crowd that had remained on the other side of the sea realized that only one boat had been there, and that Jesus had not boarded it with His disciples, but they had gone away alone.

96. 6:23

    However, some boats from Tiberias landed near the place where the people had eaten the bread after the Lord had given thanks.

97. 6:24

    So when the crowd saw that neither Jesus nor His disciples were there, they got into the boats and went to Capernaum to look for Him.

98. 6:26

    Jesus replied, “Truly, truly, I tell you, it is not because you saw these signs that you are looking for Me, but because you ate the loaves and had your fill.

99. 6:27

    Do not work for food that perishes, but for food that endures to eternal life, which the Son of Man will give you. For on Him God the Father has placed His seal of approval.”

100. 6:29

     Jesus replied, “The work of God is this: to believe in the One He has sent.”

101. 6:32

     Jesus said to them, “Truly, truly, I tell you, it was not Moses who gave you the bread from heaven, but it is My Father who gives you the true bread from heaven.

102. 6:34

     “Sir,” they said, “give us this bread at all times.”

103. 6:35

     Jesus answered, “I am the bread of life. Whoever comes to Me will never hunger, and whoever believes in Me will never thirst.

104. 6:40

     For it is My Father’s will that everyone who looks to the Son and believes in Him shall have eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day.”

105. 6:42

     They were asking, “Is this not Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? How then can He say, ‘I have come down from heaven’?”

106. 6:43

     “Stop grumbling among yourselves,” Jesus replied.

107. 6:53

     So Jesus said to them, “Truly, truly, I tell you, unless you eat the flesh and drink the blood of the Son of Man, you have no life in you.

108. 6:61

     Aware that His disciples were grumbling about this teaching, Jesus asked them, “Does this offend you?

109. 6:62

     Then what will happen if you see the Son of Man ascend to where He was before?

110. 6:63

     The Spirit gives life; the flesh profits nothing. The words I have spoken to you are spirit and they are life.

111. 6:64

     However, there are some of you who do not believe.” (For Jesus had known from the beginning which of them did not believe and who would betray Him.)

112. 6:67

     So Jesus asked the Twelve, “Do you want to leave too?”

113. 6:68

     Simon Peter replied, “Lord, to whom would we go? You have the words of eternal life.

114. 6:69

     We believe and know that You are the Holy One of God.”

115. 6:70

     Jesus answered them, “Have I not chosen you, the Twelve? Yet one of you is a devil!”

116. 7:1

     After this, Jesus traveled throughout Galilee. He did not want to travel in Judea, because the Jews there were trying to kill Him.

117. 7:6

     Therefore Jesus told them, “Although your time is always at hand, My time has not yet come.

118. 7:14

     About halfway through the feast, Jesus went up to the temple courts and began to teach.

119. 7:16

     “My teaching is not My own,” Jesus replied. “It comes from Him who sent Me.

120. 7:21

     Jesus answered them, “I did one miracle, and you are all amazed.

121. 7:26

     Yet here He is, speaking publicly, and they are not saying anything to Him. Have the rulers truly recognized that this is the Christ?

122. 7:27

     But we know where this man is from. When the Christ comes, no one will know where He is from.”

123. 7:28

     Then Jesus, still teaching in the temple courts, cried out, “You know Me, and you know where I am from. I have not come of My own accord, but He who sent Me is true. You do not know Him,

124. 7:31

     Many in the crowd, however, believed in Him and said, “When the Christ comes, will He perform more signs than this man?”

125. 7:33

     So Jesus said, “I am with you only a little while longer, and then I am going to the One who sent Me.

126. 7:37

     On the last and greatest day of the feast, Jesus stood up and called out in a loud voice, “If anyone is thirsty, let him come to Me and drink.

127. 7:39

     He was speaking about the Spirit, whom those who believed in Him were later to receive. For the Spirit had not yet been given, because Jesus had not yet been glorified.

128. 7:41

     Others declared, “This is the Christ.” But still others asked, “How can the Christ come from Galilee?

129. 7:42

     Doesn’t the Scripture say that the Christ will come from the line of David and from Bethlehem, the village where David lived?”

130. 7:50

     Nicodemus, who had gone to Jesus earlier and who himself was one of them, asked,

131. 8:1

     But Jesus went to the Mount of Olives.

132. 8:6

     They said this to test Him, in order to have a basis for accusing Him. But Jesus bent down and began to write on the ground with His finger.

133. 8:9

     When they heard this, they began to go away one by one, beginning with the older ones, until only Jesus was left, with the woman standing there.

134. 8:10

     Then Jesus straightened up and asked her, “Woman, where are your accusers? Has no one condemned you?”

135. 8:11

     “No one, Lord,” she answered. “Then neither do I condemn you,” Jesus declared. “Now go and sin no more.”

136. 8:12

     Once again, Jesus spoke to the people and said, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows Me will never walk in the darkness, but will have the light of life.”

137. 8:14

     Jesus replied, “Even if I testify about Myself, My testimony is valid, because I know where I came from and where I am going. But you do not know where I came from or where I am going.

138. 8:19

     “Where is Your Father?” they asked Him. “You do not know Me or My Father,” Jesus answered. “If you knew Me, you would know My Father as well.”

139. 8:20

     He spoke these words while teaching in the temple courts, near the treasury. Yet no one seized Him, because His hour had not yet come.

140. 8:21

     Again He said to them, “I am going away, and you will look for Me, but you will die in your sin. Where I am going, you cannot come.”

141. 8:25

     “Who are You?” they asked. “Just what I have been telling you from the beginning,” Jesus replied.

142. 8:28

     So Jesus said, “When you have lifted up the Son of Man, then you will know that I am He, and that I do nothing on My own, but speak exactly what the Father has taught Me.

143. 8:31

     So He said to the Jews who had believed Him, “If you continue in My word, you are truly My disciples.

144. 8:34

     Jesus replied, “Truly, truly, I tell you, everyone who sins is a slave to sin.

145. 8:35

     A slave does not remain in the house forever, but a son remains forever.

146. 8:36

     So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed.

147. 8:39

     “Abraham is our father,” they replied. “If you were children of Abraham,” said Jesus, “you would do the works of Abraham.

148. 8:42

     Jesus said to them, “If God were your Father, you would love Me, for I have come here from God. I have not come on My own, but He sent Me.

149. 8:49

     “I do not have a demon,” Jesus replied, “but I honor My Father, and you dishonor Me.

150. 8:54

     Jesus answered, “If I glorify Myself, My glory means nothing. The One who glorifies Me is My Father, of whom you say, ‘He is our God.’

151. 8:58

     “Truly, truly, I tell you,” Jesus declared, “before Abraham was born, I am!”

152. 8:59

     At this, they picked up stones to throw at Him. But Jesus was hidden and went out of the temple area.

153. 9:3

     Jesus answered, “Neither this man nor his parents sinned, but this happened so that the works of God would be displayed in him.

154. 9:11

     He answered, “The man they call Jesus made some mud and anointed my eyes, and He told me to go to Siloam and wash. So I went and washed and received my sight.”

155. 9:14

     Now the day on which Jesus had made the mud and opened his eyes was a Sabbath.

156. 9:22

     His parents said this because they were afraid of the Jews. For the Jews had already determined that anyone who confessed Jesus as the Christ would be put out of the synagogue.

157. 9:35

     When Jesus heard that they had thrown him out, He found the man and said, “Do you believe in the Son of Man?”

158. 9:36

     “Who is He, Sir?” he replied. “Tell me so that I may believe in Him.”

159. 9:37

     “You have already seen Him,” Jesus answered. “He is the One speaking with you.”

160. 9:38

     “Lord, I believe,” he said. And he worshiped Jesus.

161. 9:39

     Then Jesus declared, “For judgment I have come into this world, so that the blind may see and those who see may become blind.”

162. 9:41

     “If you were blind,” Jesus replied, “you would not be guilty of sin. But since you claim you can see, your guilt remains.”

163. 10:6

     Jesus spoke to them using this illustration, but they did not understand what He was telling them.

164. 10:7

     So He said to them again, “Truly, truly, I tell you, I am the gate for the sheep.

165. 10:23

     and Jesus was walking in the temple courts in Solomon’s Colonnade.

166. 10:24

     So the Jews gathered around Him and demanded, “How long will You keep us in suspense? If You are the Christ, tell us plainly.”

167. 10:25

     “I already told you,” Jesus replied, “but you did not believe. The works I do in My Father’s name testify on My behalf.

168. 10:32

     But Jesus responded, “I have shown you many good works from the Father. For which of these do you stone Me?”

169. 10:34

     Jesus replied, “Is it not written in your Law: ‘I have said you are gods’?

170. 10:36

     then what about the One whom the Father sanctified and sent into the world? How then can you accuse Me of blasphemy for stating that I am the Son of God?

171. 11:2

     (Mary, whose brother Lazarus was sick, was to anoint the Lord with perfume and wipe His feet with her hair.)

172. 11:3

     So the sisters sent word to Jesus, “Lord, the one You love is sick.”

173. 11:4

     When Jesus heard this, He said, “This sickness will not end in death. No, it is for the glory of God, so that the Son of God may be glorified through it.”

174. 11:5

     Now Jesus loved Martha and her sister and Lazarus.

175. 11:9

     Jesus answered, “Are there not twelve hours of daylight? If anyone walks in the daytime, he will not stumble, because he sees by the light of this world.

176. 11:12

     His disciples replied, “Lord, if he is sleeping, he will get better.”

177. 11:13

     They thought that Jesus was talking about actual sleep, but He was speaking about the death of Lazarus.

178. 11:14

     So Jesus told them plainly, “Lazarus is dead,

179. 11:17

     When Jesus arrived, He found that Lazarus had already spent four days in the tomb.

180. 11:20

     So when Martha heard that Jesus was coming, she went out to meet Him, but Mary stayed at home.

181. 11:21

     Martha said to Jesus, “Lord, if You had been here, my brother would not have died.

182. 11:23

     “Your brother will rise again,” Jesus told her.

183. 11:25

     Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. Whoever believes in Me will live, even though he dies.

184. 11:27

     “Yes, Lord,” she answered, “I believe that You are the Christ, the Son of God, who was to come into the world.”

185. 11:30

     Now Jesus had not yet entered the village, but was still at the place where Martha had met Him.

186. 11:32

     When Mary came to Jesus and saw Him, she fell at His feet and said, “Lord, if You had been here, my brother would not have died.”

187. 11:33

     When Jesus saw her weeping, and the Jews who had come with her also weeping, He was deeply moved in spirit and troubled.

188. 11:34

     “Where have you put him?” He asked. “Come and see, Lord,” they answered.

189. 11:35

     Jesus wept.

190. 11:38

     Jesus, once again deeply moved, came to the tomb. It was a cave with a stone laid across the entrance.

191. 11:39

     “Take away the stone,” Jesus said. “Lord, by now he stinks,” said Martha, the sister of the dead man. “It has already been four days.”

192. 11:40

     Jesus replied, “Did I not tell you that if you believed, you would see the glory of God?”

193. 11:41

     So they took away the stone. Then Jesus lifted His eyes upward and said, “Father, I thank You that You have heard Me.

194. 11:44

     The man who had been dead came out with his hands and feet bound in strips of linen, and his face wrapped in a cloth. “Unwrap him and let him go,” Jesus told them.

195. 11:45

     Therefore many of the Jews who had come to Mary, and had seen what Jesus did, believed in Him.

196. 11:46

     But some of them went to the Pharisees and told them what Jesus had done.

197. 11:51

     Caiaphas did not say this on his own. Instead, as high priest that year, he was prophesying that Jesus would die for the nation,

198. 11:54

     As a result, Jesus no longer went about publicly among the Jews, but He withdrew to a town called Ephraim in an area near the wilderness. And He stayed there with the disciples.

199. 11:56

     They kept looking for Jesus and asking one another as they stood in the temple courts, “What do you think? Will He come to the feast at all?”

200. 12:1

     Six days before the Passover, Jesus came to Bethany, the hometown of Lazarus, whom He had raised from the dead.

201. 12:3

     Then Mary took about a pint of expensive perfume, made of pure nard, and she anointed Jesus’ feet and wiped them with her hair. And the house was filled with the fragrance of the perfume.

202. 12:7

     “Leave her alone,” Jesus replied. “She has kept this perfume in preparation for the day of My burial.

203. 12:9

     Meanwhile a large crowd of Jews learned that Jesus was there. And they came not only because of Him, but also to see Lazarus, whom He had raised from the dead.

204. 12:11

     for on account of him many of the Jews were deserting them and believing in Jesus.

205. 12:12

     The next day the great crowd that had come to the feast heard that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem.

206. 12:13

     They took palm branches and went out to meet Him, shouting: “Hosanna!” “Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord!” “Blessed is the King of Israel!”

207. 12:14

     Finding a young donkey, Jesus sat on it, as it is written:

208. 12:16

     At first His disciples did not understand these things, but after Jesus was glorified they remembered what had been done to Him, and they realized that these very things had also been written about Him.

209. 12:21

     They came to Philip, who was from Bethsaida in Galilee, and requested of him, “Sir, we want to see Jesus.”

210. 12:22

     Philip relayed this appeal to Andrew, and both of them went and told Jesus.

211. 12:23

     But Jesus replied, “The hour has come for the Son of Man to be glorified.

212. 12:30

     In response, Jesus said, “This voice was not for My benefit, but yours.

213. 12:34

     The crowd replied, “We have heard from the Law that the Christ will remain forever. So how can You say that the Son of Man must be lifted up? Who is this Son of Man?”

214. 12:35

     Then Jesus told them, “For a little while longer, the Light will be among you. Walk while you have the Light, so that darkness will not overtake you. The one who walks in the darkness does not know where he is going.

215. 12:36

     While you have the Light, believe in the Light, so that you may become sons of light.” After Jesus had spoken these things, He went away and was hidden from them.

216. 12:38

     This was to fulfill the word of Isaiah the prophet: “Lord, who has believed our message? And to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed?”

217. 12:44

     Then Jesus cried out, “Whoever believes in Me does not believe in Me alone, but in the One who sent Me.

218. 13:1

     It was now just before the Passover Feast, and Jesus knew that His hour had come to leave this world and return to the Father. Having loved His own who were in the world, He loved them to the very end.

219. 13:3

     Jesus knew that the Father had delivered all things into His hands, and that He had come from God and was returning to God.

220. 13:6

     He came to Simon Peter, who asked Him, “Lord, are You going to wash my feet?”

221. 13:7

     Jesus replied, “You do not realize now what I am doing, but later you will understand.”

222. 13:8

     “Never shall You wash my feet!” Peter told Him. Jesus answered, “Unless I wash you, you have no part with Me.”

223. 13:9

     “Then, Lord,” Simon Peter replied, “not only my feet, but my hands and my head as well!”

224. 13:10

     Jesus told him, “Whoever has already bathed needs only to wash his feet, and he will be completely clean. And you are clean, though not all of you.”

225. 13:13

     You call Me Teacher and Lord, and rightly so, because I am.

226. 13:14

     So if I, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also should wash one another’s feet.

227. 13:21

     After Jesus had said this, He became troubled in spirit and testified, “Truly, truly, I tell you, one of you will betray Me.”

228. 13:23

     One of His disciples, the one whom Jesus loved, was reclining at His side.

229. 13:25

     Leaning back against Jesus, he asked, “Lord, who is it?”

230. 13:26

     Jesus answered, “It is the one to whom I give this morsel after I have dipped it.” Then He dipped the morsel and gave it to Judas son of Simon Iscariot.

231. 13:27

     And when Judas had taken the morsel, Satan entered into him. Then Jesus said to Judas, “What you are about to do, do quickly.”

232. 13:29

     Since Judas kept the money bag, some thought that Jesus was telling him to buy what was needed for the feast, or to give something to the poor.

233. 13:31

     When Judas had gone out, Jesus said, “Now the Son of Man is glorified, and God is glorified in Him.

234. 13:36

     “Lord, where are You going?” Simon Peter asked. Jesus answered, “Where I am going, you cannot follow Me now, but you will follow later.”

235. 13:37

     “Lord,” said Peter, “why can’t I follow You now? I will lay down my life for You.”

236. 13:38

     “Will you lay down your life for Me?” Jesus replied. “Truly, truly, I tell you, before the rooster crows, you will deny Me three times.

237. 14:5

     “Lord,” said Thomas, “we do not know where You are going, so how can we know the way?”

238. 14:6

     Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.

239. 14:8

     Philip said to Him, “Lord, show us the Father, and that will be enough for us.”

240. 14:9

     Jesus replied, “Philip, I have been with you all this time, and still you do not know Me? Anyone who has seen Me has seen the Father. How can you say, ‘Show us the Father’?

241. 14:13

     And I will do whatever you ask in My name, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son.

242. 14:22

     Judas (not Iscariot) asked Him, “Lord, why are You going to reveal Yourself to us and not to the world?”

243. 14:23

     Jesus replied, “If anyone loves Me, he will keep My word. My Father will love him, and We will come to him and make Our home with him.

244. 16:19

     Aware that they wanted to question Him, Jesus said to them, “Are you asking one another why I said, ‘In a little while you will not see Me, and then after a little while you will see Me’?

245. 16:31

     “Do you finally believe?” Jesus replied.

246. 17:1

     When Jesus had spoken these things, He lifted up His eyes to heaven and said, “Father, the hour has come. Glorify Your Son, that Your Son may glorify You.

247. 17:3

     Now this is eternal life, that they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom You have sent.

248. 18:1

     After Jesus had spoken these words, He went out with His disciples across the Kidron Valley, where they entered a garden.

249. 18:2

     Now Judas His betrayer also knew the place, because Jesus had often met there with His disciples.

250. 18:4

     Jesus, knowing all that was coming upon Him, stepped forward and asked them, “Whom are you seeking?”

251. 18:5

     “Jesus of Nazareth,” they answered. Jesus said, “I am He.” And Judas His betrayer was standing there with them.

252. 18:7

     So He asked them again, “Whom are you seeking?” “Jesus of Nazareth,” they answered.

253. 18:8

     “I told you that I am He,” Jesus replied. “So if you are looking for Me, let these men go.”

254. 18:11

     “Put your sword back in its sheath!” Jesus said to Peter. “Shall I not drink the cup the Father has given Me?”

255. 18:12

     Then the band of soldiers, with its commander and the officers of the Jews, arrested Jesus and bound Him.

256. 18:15

     Now Simon Peter and another disciple were following Jesus. Since that disciple was known to the high priest, he also went with Jesus into the courtyard of the high priest.

257. 18:19

     Meanwhile, the high priest questioned Jesus about His disciples and His teaching.

258. 18:20

     “I have spoken openly to the world,” Jesus answered. “I always taught in the synagogues and at the temple, where all the Jews come together. I said nothing in secret.

259. 18:22

     When Jesus had said this, one of the officers standing nearby slapped Him in the face and said, “Is this how You answer the high priest?”

260. 18:23

     Jesus replied, “If I said something wrong, testify as to what was wrong. But if I spoke correctly, why did you strike Me?”

261. 18:28

     Then they led Jesus away from Caiaphas into the Praetorium. By now it was early morning, and the Jews did not enter the Praetorium, to avoid being defiled and unable to eat the Passover.

262. 18:32

     This was to fulfill the word that Jesus had spoken to indicate the kind of death He was going to die.

263. 18:33

     Pilate went back into the Praetorium, summoned Jesus, and asked Him, “Are You the King of the Jews?”

264. 18:34

     “Are you saying this on your own,” Jesus asked, “or did others tell you about Me?”

265. 18:36

     Jesus answered, “My kingdom is not of this world; if it were, My servants would fight to prevent My arrest by the Jews. But now My kingdom is not of this realm.”

266. 18:37

     “Then You are a king!” Pilate said. “You say that I am a king,” Jesus answered. “For this reason I was born and have come into the world, to testify to the truth. Everyone who belongs to the truth listens to My voice.”

267. 19:1

     Then Pilate took Jesus and had Him flogged.

268. 19:5

     When Jesus came out wearing the crown of thorns and the purple robe, Pilate said to them, “Here is the man!”

269. 19:7

     “We have a law,” answered the Jews, “and according to that law He must die, because He declared Himself to be the Son of God.”

270. 19:9

     and he went back into the Praetorium. “Where are You from?” he asked. But Jesus gave no answer.

271. 19:11

     Jesus answered, “You would have no authority over Me if it were not given to you from above. Therefore the one who handed Me over to you is guilty of greater sin.”

272. 19:13

     When Pilate heard these words, he brought Jesus out and sat on the judgment seat at a place called the Stone Pavement, which in Hebrew is Gabbatha.

273. 19:16

     Then Pilate handed Jesus over to be crucified, and the soldiers took Him away.

274. 19:18

     There they crucified Him, and with Him two others, one on each side, with Jesus in the middle.

275. 19:19

     Pilate also had a notice posted on the cross. It read: JESUS OF NAZARETH, THE KING OF THE JEWS.

276. 19:20

     Many of the Jews read this sign, because the place where Jesus was crucified was near the city, and it was written in Hebrew, Latin, and Greek.

277. 19:23

     When the soldiers had crucified Jesus, they divided His garments into four parts, one for each soldier, with the tunic remaining. It was seamless, woven in one piece from top to bottom.

278. 19:25

     Near the cross of Jesus stood His mother and her sister, as well as Mary the wife of Clopas and Mary Magdalene.

279. 19:26

     When Jesus saw His mother and the disciple whom He loved standing nearby, He said to His mother, “Woman, here is your son.”

280. 19:28

     After this, knowing that everything had now been accomplished, and to fulfill the Scripture, Jesus said, “I am thirsty.”

281. 19:30

     When Jesus had received the sour wine, He said, “It is finished.” And bowing His head, He yielded up His spirit.

282. 19:33

     But when they came to Jesus and saw that He was already dead, they did not break His legs.

283. 19:38

     Afterward, Joseph of Arimathea, who was a disciple of Jesus (but secretly for fear of the Jews), asked Pilate to let him remove the body of Jesus. Pilate gave him permission, so he came and removed His body.

284. 19:39

     Nicodemus, who had previously come to Jesus at night, also brought a mixture of myrrh and aloes, about seventy-five pounds.

285. 19:40

     So they took the body of Jesus and wrapped it in linen cloths with the spices, according to the Jewish burial custom.

286. 19:42

     And because it was the Jewish day of Preparation and the tomb was nearby, they placed Jesus there.

287. 20:2

     So she came running to Simon Peter and the other disciple, the one whom Jesus loved. “They have taken the Lord out of the tomb,” she said, “and we do not know where they have put Him!”

288. 20:12

     and she saw two angels in white sitting where the body of Jesus had lain, one at the head and the other at the feet.

289. 20:13

     “Woman, why are you weeping?” they asked. “Because they have taken my Lord away,” she said, “and I do not know where they have put Him.”

290. 20:14

     When she had said this, she turned around and saw Jesus standing there. But she did not recognize that it was Jesus.

291. 20:15

     “Woman, why are you weeping?” Jesus asked. “Whom are you seeking?” Thinking He was the gardener, she said, “Sir, if you have carried Him off, tell me where you have put Him, and I will get Him.”

292. 20:16

     Jesus said to her, “Mary.” She turned and said to Him in Hebrew, “Rabboni!” (which means “Teacher”).

293. 20:17

     “Do not cling to Me,” Jesus said, “for I have not yet ascended to the Father. But go and tell My brothers, ‘I am ascending to My Father and your Father, to My God and your God.’”

294. 20:18

     Mary Magdalene went and announced to the disciples, “I have seen the Lord!” And she told them what He had said to her.

295. 20:19

     It was the first day of the week, and that very evening, while the disciples were together with the doors locked for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood among them. “Peace be with you!” He said to them.

296. 20:20

     After He had said this, He showed them His hands and His side. The disciples rejoiced when they saw the Lord.

297. 20:21

     Again Jesus said to them, “Peace be with you. As the Father has sent Me, so also I am sending you.”

298. 20:24

     Now Thomas called Didymus, one of the Twelve, was not with the disciples when Jesus came.

299. 20:25

     So the other disciples told him, “We have seen the Lord!” But he replied, “Unless I see the nail marks in His hands, and put my finger where the nails have been, and put my hand into His side, I will never believe.”

300. 20:26

     Eight days later, His disciples were once again inside with the doors locked, and Thomas was with them. Jesus came and stood among them and said, “Peace be with you.”

301. 20:28

     Thomas replied, “My Lord and my God!”

302. 20:29

     Jesus said to him, “Because you have seen Me, you have believed; blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed.”

303. 20:30

     Jesus performed many other signs in the presence of His disciples, which are not written in this book.

304. 20:31

     But these are written so that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in His name.

305. 21:1

     Later, by the Sea of Tiberias, Jesus again revealed Himself to the disciples. He made Himself known in this way:

306. 21:4

     Early in the morning, Jesus stood on the shore, but the disciples did not recognize that it was Jesus.

307. 21:5

     So He called out to them, “Children, do you have any fish?” “No,” they answered.

308. 21:7

     Then the disciple whom Jesus loved said to Peter, “It is the Lord!” As soon as Simon Peter heard that it was the Lord, he put on his outer garment (for he had removed it) and jumped into the sea.

309. 21:10

     Jesus told them, “Bring some of the fish you have just caught.”

310. 21:12

     “Come, have breakfast,” Jesus said to them. None of the disciples dared to ask Him, “Who are You?” They knew it was the Lord.

311. 21:13

     Jesus came and took the bread and gave it to them, and He did the same with the fish.

312. 21:14

     This was now the third time that Jesus appeared to the disciples after He was raised from the dead.

313. 21:15

     When they had finished eating, Jesus asked Simon Peter, “Simon son of John, do you love Me more than these?” “Yes, Lord,” he answered, “You know I love You.” Jesus replied, “Feed My lambs.”

314. 21:16

     Jesus asked a second time, “Simon son of John, do you love Me?” “Yes, Lord,” he answered, “You know I love You.” Jesus told him, “Shepherd My sheep.”

315. 21:17

     Jesus asked a third time, “Simon son of John, do you love Me?” Peter was deeply hurt that Jesus had asked him a third time, “Do you love Me?” “Lord, You know all things,” he replied. “You know I love You.” Jesus said to him, “Feed My sheep.

316. 21:20

     Peter turned and saw the disciple whom Jesus loved following them. He was the one who had leaned back against Jesus at the supper to ask, “Lord, who is going to betray You?”

317. 21:21

     When Peter saw him, he asked, “Lord, what about him?”

318. 21:22

     Jesus answered, “If I want him to remain until I return, what is that to you? You follow Me!”

319. 21:23

     Because of this, the rumor spread among the brothers that this disciple would not die. However, Jesus did not say that he would not die, but only, “If I want him to remain until I return, what is that to you?”

320. 21:25

     There are many more things that Jesus did. If all of them were written down, I suppose that not even the world itself would have space for the books that would be written.
