Tree Of Life Version

John 7:7-24 Tree Of Life Version (TLV)

7. The world cannot hate you, but it hates Me because I testify that its works are evil.

8. You go on up to the Feast. I’m not going to this feast, because My time hasn’t yet fully come.”

9. After saying these things, He stayed in the Galilee.

10. But after His brothers went to the Feast, He also went, not openly but secretly.

11. Then the Judean leaders were searching for Him at the Feast and kept asking, “Where is that fellow?”

12. There was a lot of murmuring about Him in the crowds. Some were saying, “He is good.” But others were saying, “Not so! He leads the people astray.”

13. Yet no one spoke openly about Him for fear of the Judean leaders.

14. About halfway through the Feast, Yeshua went up to the Temple and began teaching.

15. Then the Judean leaders were amazed, saying, “How does this man know so much, having never been taught?”

16. Yeshua answered, “My teaching is not from Me, but from Him who sent Me.

17. If anyone wants to do His will, he will know whether My teaching comes from God or it is Myself speaking.

18. Whoever speaks from himself seeks his own glory; but He who seeks the glory of the One who sent Him, He is true and there is no unrighteousness in Him.

19. Hasn’t Moses given you the Torah? Yet none of you keeps it. Why are you trying to kill Me?”

20. The crowd answered, “You have a demon! Who’s trying to kill you?”

21. Yeshua answered, “I did one good work, and all of you are amazed.

22. Because Moses has given you circumcision (though it is not from Moses, but from the patriarchs), you circumcise a man on Shabbat.

23. If a man receives circumcision on Shabbat so that the Torah of Moses may not be broken, why are you angry that I healed a man’s whole body on Shabbat?

24. Do not judge by appearance, but judge righteously.”
