Interpretation of the Gospel of John

And they answered and said unto him, Our father is Abraham. Jesus said to them,

508

if you had been the children of Abraham, you would have done the works of Abraham

509

The man who told you the truth that he heard from God,

510

Abraham did not do that.

511

And they said to him, We are not born of fornication; we have one father, God.

512

Israel is my son, my firstborn;

513

Jesus said to them, "If God were your Father, you would love me, because I came from God and came;

514

for I did not come of myself, but he sent me.

515

Why do you not understand My speech?

516

For you cannot hear my words.

517

Your father is the devil;

518

and you want to fulfill the lusts of your father.

519

He was a murderer from the beginning

520

and did not stand in the truth,

521

for there is no truth in him.

522

When he tells a lie, he says his own...

523

no, you will not die... and you will be like gods...
