John 7:14–19

14 When the festival was already half over, Jesus went up into the templea and began to teach. 15 Then the Jews were amazed and said, “How is this man so learned,b since he hasn’t been trained?”

16 Jesus answered them, “My teaching isn’t mine but is from the one who sent me.c 17 If anyone wants to do his will,d he will know whether the teaching is from God or whether I am speaking on my own. 18 The one who speaks on his own seeks his own glory;e but he who seeks the gloryf of the one who sent him is true,g and there is no unrighteousness in him.h 19 Didn’t Mosesi give you the law? Yet none of you keeps the law.j Why are you trying to kill me?”
