62 Who Is That Man?

John 7:14-52, TBC Book Two, Chapter 62
Ever since Jesus began talking about his death, he started spending more time alone with his disciples and less with the crowds. Rarely did he enter a large city, and when he did, he was very careful about when and where he would speak. But now he had decided to attend a feast in Jerusalem. 

At first, Jesus kept himself somewhat hidden from the crowds. Not until halfway through the week did he appear in the temple courts.

Many of those people knew about Jesus but had never heard him speak. They knew he had not been trained as were the Pharisees and teachers of the Scripture. So when they heard him, they were amazed. Turning to one another, they said, “Where did he get such learning?”

Jesus knew what they were saying. “My teaching is not my own,” he said. “It is from him who sent me. If anyone chooses to do God’s will, he will know where my teaching comes from.”

Jesus also knew that some in the crowd were angry with him. They wanted him killed. . . .
