12. And there was a lot of discussion about Him among the crowds. Some were saying, “He’s a good man.” Others were saying, “No, on the contrary, He’s deceiving the people.”
13. Still, nobody was talking publicly about Him because they feared the Jews.
14. When the festival was already half over, Jesus went up into the temple complex and began to teach.
15. Then the Jews were amazed and said, “How does He know the Scriptures, since He hasn’t been trained? ”
16. Jesus answered them, “My teaching isn’t Mine but is from the One who sent Me.
17. If anyone wants to do His will, he will understand whether the teaching is from God or if I am speaking on My own.
18. The one who speaks for himself seeks his own glory. But He who seeks the glory of the One who sent Him is true, and there is no unrighteousness in Him.
19. Didn’t Moses give you the law? Yet none of you keeps the law! Why do you want to kill Me? ”
20. “You have a demon! ” the crowd responded. “Who wants to kill You? ”
21. “I did one work, and you are all amazed,” Jesus answered.
