Back in the Courtroom | John 8:12-20 | Behold The Lamb

Behold The Lamb

Dec 10

As we continue this morning, Jesus is still in Jerusalem, immediately following the Feast of Tabernacles. In fact, this is the day after the feast is over, and is the same day as Jesus' interaction with the woman caught in adultery. One interesting connection from 7:52 to 8:12 is what the Jewish leaders said in 7:52 about a prophet coming out of Galilee and what Jesus says in 8:12 (See Isaiah 9:1-2). In His conversation with the religious leaders, Jesus is now going to re-introduce some of His argumentation from John 5 regarding witnesses to His identity.
