Jesus Declares Himself the Light of the World

12

Yeshua spoke to them again: “I am the light of the world; whoever follows me will never walk in darkness but will have the light which gives life.”

13

So the P’rushim said to him, “Now you’re testifying on your own behalf; your testimony is not valid.”

14

Yeshua answered them, “Even if I do testify on my own behalf, my testimony is indeed valid; because I know where I came from and where I’m going; but you do not know where I came from or where I’m going.

15

You judge by merely human standards. As for me, I pass judgment on no one;

16

but if I were indeed to pass judgment, my judgment would be valid; because it is not I alone who judge, but I and the One who sent me.

17

And even in your Torah it is written that the testimony of two people is valid.

18

I myself testify on my own behalf, and so does the Father who sent me.”

19

They said to him, “Where is this ‘father’ of yours?” Yeshua answered, “You know neither me nor my Father; if you knew me, you would know my Father too.”

20

He said these things when he was teaching in the Temple treasury room; yet no one arrested him, because his time had not yet come.
