14About halfway through the feast, Jesus went up to the temple courts and began to teach.
15The Jews were amazed and asked, “How did this man attain such learning without having studied?”
16“My teaching is not My own,” Jesus replied. “It comes from Him who sent Me.
17If anyone desires to do His will, he will know whether My teaching is from God or whether I speak on My own.
18He who speaks on his own authority seeks his own glory, but He who seeks the glory of the One who sent Him is a man of truth; in Him there is no falsehood.
19Has not Moses given you the law? Yet not one of you keeps it. Why are you trying to kill Me?”
20“You have a demon,” the crowd replied. “Who is trying to kill You?”
21Jesus answered them, “I did one miracle, and you are all amazed.
22But because Moses gave you circumcision, you circumcise a boy on the Sabbath (not that it is from Moses, but from the patriarchs.)

24Stop judging by outward appearances, and start judging justly.”
