8Verse 1But Yeshua [Salvation] went to the Mount of Olives.Verse 2Now very early in the morning (of the seventh month Ethanim ·Ever-flowing durable stream (in Hebrew), 7· or Tishrei ·[Beginning (in Babylonian)]· 22nd day)), he came again into the temple, and all the people came to him. He sat down, and taught them. (This day is called Sh'mini Atrzeret ·Eighth day Assembly·.)Verse 3The Torah-Teachers and the Pharisees [Separated] brought a woman taken in moicheia ·adultery· and set her in the midst of Yeshua [Salvation].Verse 4They told him, “Rabbi ·Teacher·, we found this woman moicheuo ·committing adultery·, in the very act.Verse 5Now in our Torah ·Teaching·, Moses [Drawn out] enjoined us that such a woman be stoned to death.++What then do you say about her?”Verse 6They said this testing him, that they might have something to accuse him of. But Yeshua [Salvation] stooped down, and wrote on the ground with his finger.Verse 7But when they continued asking him, he looked up and said to them, “He who is set apart from sin ·devoted to making the mark and taking share in the goal· among you, let him throw the first stone at her.”Verse 8Again he stooped down, and with his finger wrote on the ground.Verse 9They, when they heard it, being convicted by their conscience, went out one by one, beginning from the oldest, even to the last. Yeshua [Salvation] was left alone with the woman where she was, in the middle.Verse 10Yeshua [Salvation], standing up, saw her and said, “Woman, where are your accusers? Did no one condemn you?”Verse 11She said, “No one, Lord.” Yeshua [Salvation] said, “Neither do I condemn you. Go your way. From now on, sin ·miss the mark and be without share· no more.”Verse 12++Again, therefore, Yeshua [Salvation] spoke to them, saying, “ Ena Na [I AM (the Living God)], the light of the world.+He who follows me will not walk in the darkness, but will have the light of life.”Verse 13The Pharisees [Separated] therefore said to him, “You testify about yourself. Your testimony is not valid.”Verse 14Yeshua [Salvation] answered them, “Even if I testify about myself, my testimony is true, for I know where I came from, and where I am going; but you don’t know where I came from, or where I am going.Verse 15You judge according to the flesh. I judge no one.Verse 16Even if I do judge, my judgment is true, for I am not alone, but I am with Abba ·Father familiar, Dear Dad· who sent me.Verse 17It’s also written in your Torah ·Teaching· that the testimony of two people is valid.+Verse 18Ena Na [I AM (the Living God)] that testifies about myself, and Abba ·Father familiar, Dear Dad· who sent me testifies about me.”Verse 19They said therefore to him, “Where is your Abba Father?” Yeshua [Salvation] answered, “You know neither me, nor 'Avi ·my Father·. If you knew me, you would know 'Avi ·my Father· also.”Verse 20Yeshua [Salvation] spoke these words in the treasury, as he taught in the temple. Yet no one arrested him, because his hour had not yet come.Verse 21Yeshua [Salvation] said therefore again to them, “I am going away, and you will seek me, and you will die in your abstract sins ·miss the marks·. Where I go, you can’t come.”Verse 22The Jews [Praisers] therefore said, “Will he kill himself, that he says, ‘Where I am going, you can’t come’?”Verse 23+He said to them, “You are from beneath. I am from above. You are of this world. I am not of this world.Verse 24I said therefore to you that you will die in your abstract sins ·miss the marks·; for unless you trust that Ena Na [I AM (the Living God)], you will die in your abstract sins ·miss the marks·.”Verse 25They said therefore to him, “Who are you?”Yeshua [Salvation] said to them, “Just what I have been saying to you from the beginning.Verse 26I have many things to speak and to judge concerning you. However he who sent me is true; and the things which I heard from him, these I say to the world.”Verse 27They didn’t understand that he spoke to them about haAbba ·the Father·.Verse 28Yeshua [Salvation] therefore said to them, “When you have lifted up the Son of Man, then you will know that Ena Na [I AM (the Living God)], and I do nothing of myself, but as 'Avi ·my Father· taught me, I say these things.Verse 29He who sent me is with me. Abba ·Father familiar, Dear Dad· has not left me alone, for I always do the things that are pleasing to him.”Verse 30As he spoke these things, many trusted in him.Verse 31+Yeshua [Salvation] therefore said to those Jews [Praisers] who had trusted him, “If you remain in my word, then you are truly my disciples.Verse 32You will know the truth, and the truth will make you free.”Verse 33They answered him, “We are Abraham [Father of a multitude]’s offspring, and have never been in bondage to anyone. How do you say, ‘You will be made free’?”Verse 34Yeshua [Salvation] answered them, “Most certainly I tell you, everyone who commits abstract sin ·miss the mark· is the bond-servant of abstract sin ·miss the mark·.Verse 35A bond-servant does not live in the house forever. A son remains forever.Verse 36+If therefore the Son makes you free, you will be free indeed.Verse 37I know that you are Abraham [Father of a multitude]’s offspring, yet you seek to kill me, because my word finds no place in you.Verse 38I say the things which I have seen with 'Avi ·my Father·; and you also do the things which you have seen with 'Avikah ·your Father·.”Verse 39They answered him, “Abraham [Father of a multitude] is Avinu ·our Father·.” Yeshua [Salvation] said to them, “If you were Abraham [Father of a multitude]’s children, you would do the works of Abraham [Father of a multitude].Verse 40But now you seek to kill me, a man who has told you the truth, which I heard from God. Abraham [Father of a multitude] didn’t do this.Verse 41You do the works of your Abba ·Father familiar, Dear Dad·.” They said to him, “We were not born of porhneia ·sexual immorality·; we have one Abba Father, God.”Verse 42Therefore Yeshua [Salvation] said to them, “If God were your Abba ·Father familiar, Dear Dad·, you would have agapao ·total devotion love· towards me, for I came out and have come from God. For I haven’t come of myself, but he sent me.Verse 43Why don’t you understand my speech? Because you can’t hear my word.Verse 44You are of your Abba father, the devil [Accuser], and you want to do the epithumia ·lusts, desires· of 'Avikah ·your Father·. He was a murderer from the beginning, and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks on his own; for he is a liar, and its Abba ·Father familiar, Dear Dad·.Verse 45But because I tell the truth, you don’t trust me.Verse 46Which of you convicts me of abstract sin ·miss the mark·? If I tell the truth, why do you not trust me?Verse 47He who is of God hears the words of God. For this cause you don’t hear, because you are not of God.”Verse 48Then the Jews [Praisers] answered him, “Don’t we say well that you are a Samaritan [person from Watch-mountain], and have a demon?”Verse 49Yeshua [Salvation] answered, “I don’t have a demon, but I honor 'Avi ·my Father·, and you dishonor me.Verse 50But I don’t seek my own glory. There is one who seeks and judges.Verse 51Most certainly, I tell you, if a person keeps my word, he will never see death.”Verse 52Then the Jews [Praisers] said to him, “Now we know that you have a demon. Abraham [Father of a multitude] died, and the prophets; and you say, ‘If a man keeps my word, he will never taste of death.’Verse 53Are you greater than Abraham [Father of a multitude] Avinu ·our Father·, who died? The prophets died. Who do you make yourself out to be?”Verse 54+Yeshua [Salvation] answered, “If I glorify myself, my glory is nothing. It is 'Avi ·my Father· who glorifies me, of whom you say that he is our God.Verse 55You have not known him, but I know him. If I said, ‘I don’t know him,’ I would be like you, a liar. But I know him, and keep his word.Verse 56'Avikah ·your Father· Abraham [Father of a multitude] rejoiced to see my day. He saw it, and was glad.”Verse 57The Jews [Praisers] therefore said to him, “You are not yet fifty years old, and have you seen Abraham [Father of a multitude]?”Verse 58+Yeshua [Salvation] said to them, “Most certainly, I tell you, before Abraham [Father of a multitude] came into existence, Ena Na [I AM (the Living God)].”Verse 59Therefore they took up stones to throw at him, but Yeshua [Salvation] was hidden, and went out of the temple, having gone through the middle of them, and so passed by.
