14 Halfway through the festival, Jesus went up to the temple and began teaching.

15 The Jews were astonished and remarked, "How can this man be so educated when he has never gone to school?"

16 Jesus replied to them,"My teaching is not mine but comes from the one who sent me.

17 If anyone wants to do his will, he will know whether this teaching is from God or whether I am speaking on my own.

18 The one who speaks on his own seeks his own praise. But the one who seeks the praise of him who sent him is true, and there is nothing false in him.
