50;
50 I know that His Command leads
to Eternal life. So whatever I say is just what the Father has told Me to say.”
(5)
258
45 The
one who looks at Me is seeing the One who sent Me.
(9)
46 I have come into the world as a
Light, so that no one who believes
in Me should stay in darkness.
47 “If anyone hears My words but does not keep them, I do
not judge that person. For I did not come to judge the world, but to save the world.
258
36 Believe
in the Light while you have the Light, so that you may become children of Light.” When He had finished speaking, Jesus left and hid Himself from
them. (9)
Belief and Unbelief
Among the Jews
37 Even after Jesus had performed so many signs in
their presence, they still would not believe in Him.
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?”
258
27 “Now
my soul is troubled, and what shall I say? ‘Father,
save Me
from this hour’? No, it was for this very reason I came to this hour.
(9)
28 Father, Glorify Your Name!” Then a voice came from heaven, “I have Glorified it, and will Glorify it again.”
29 The crowd that was
there and heard it said it had thundered;
others said an angel had spoken to Him.
258
18 Many
people, because they had heard that
He had performed this sign, went out to meet Him. (9)
19 So the Pharisees said to one another, “See, this is
getting us nowhere. Look how the whole world has gone after Him!”
Jesus Predicts His
Death
20 Now there were some
Greeks among those who went
up to worship at the festival.
258
9 Meanwhile
a large crowd of Jews found out that
Jesus was there and came, not only because of him but also to see
Lazarus, whom He
had raised
from the dead.
(9)
10 So the chief priests made plans to kill Lazarus as
well,
11 for on account of
him many of the Jews were going over
to Jesus and believing in Him.
258
42 Yet
at the same time many even among the leaders believed in Him. But because of
the Pharisees they would not openly acknowledge their faith for fear they would
be put out of the synagogue;
(6)
43 for they loved human praise
more than praise from God.
44 Then Jesus cried out, “Whoever believes in Me does not believe in Me only,
but in the One who sent Me.
138
33 He
said this to show the kind of death
He was going to die. (6)
34 The crowd spoke up,
“We have heard from the Law that the
Messiah will remain forever, so how can you say, ‘The
Son of Man must be lifted up’?
Who is this ‘Son of Man’?”
35 Then Jesus told
them, “You
are going to have the Light just a little while longer.
Walk while you have the Light, before darkness overtakes
you. Whoever walks in
the dark does not know where they are going.
138
24 Very truly I tell you, unless a
Kernel of Wheat falls to the ground and dies,
it remains only a single seed. But if it dies, it produces many seeds. (6)
25 Anyone
who loves their life will lose it, while anyone who hates their life in this
world will keep it for eternal
life.
26 Whoever serves Me must follow Me; and where I am, My servant also will be. My Father will honor the one who serves Me.
138
15 “Do
not be afraid, Daughter Zion; see, your
King is coming, seated on a donkey’s colt.”
(6)
16 At first His disciples did not
understand all this. Only after Jesus was glorified did they realize that these
things had been written about Him and that these things had been
done to Him.
17 Now the crowd that
was with Him when he called Lazarus from the tomb and raised him from the dead continued to
spread the word.
138
6 He
did not say this because he cared about the poor but because he was a thief; as
keeper of the money bag, he used to help himself to what was put into it. (6)
7 “Leave her alone,” Jesus replied. “It was intended that she should save this perfume for the day of My burial.
8 You will always have the poor among you, but you
will not always have Me.”
138
48 There
is a judge for the one who rejects
Me
and does not accept My Words;
the very Words I have
spoken will condemn them at the last day.
(3)
49 For I did not speak on My own, but the Father who sent Me commanded Me to say all that I have spoken.
147
39 For
this reason they could not believe, because, as Isaiah says elsewhere: (3)
40 “He has blinded their eyes and hardened their hearts, so they can neither see with their
eyes, nor
understand with their hearts, nor turn—and I would heal them.”
41 Isaiah said this
because he saw Jesus’ Glory and spoke about Him.
258
30 Jesus said, “This
voice was for your benefit, not Mine.
(3)
31 Now is the time for judgment on this world; now the prince of this world will be driven out.
32 And
I,
when I am
lifted up from the earth, will draw all people to Myself.”
258
21 They
came to Philip, who was from Bethsaida in Galilee, with a request. “Sir,” they
said, “we would like to see Jesus.” (3)
22 Philip went to tell
Andrew; Andrew and Philip in turn told Jesus.
23 Jesus replied, “The hour has come for the Son of Man to be Glorified.
258
Jesus Comes to
Jerusalem as King
12 The next day the
great crowd that had come for the festival heard that Jesus was on His way to Jerusalem.
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!”
14 Jesus found a young
donkey and sat on it, as it is written:
258
Jesus Anointed at
Bethany
12 Six days before the Passover, Jesus came to Bethany, where Lazarus lived, whom Jesus had raised from the dead.
2 Here a dinner was
given in Jesus’ honor. Martha served, while Lazarus
was among those reclining at the table with Him.
3 Then
Mary took about a pint of pure nard, an expensive
perfume; she poured it on Jesus’ feet and wiped His feet
with her hair. And the house was filled with the fragrance of the perfume.
(3)
4 But one of His disciples, Judas Iscariot, who was later to betray
Him, objected,
5 “Why wasn’t this
perfume sold and the money given to the poor? It was worth a year’s wages.”
