Every day he was teaching at the temple. But the chief priests, the teachers of the law and the leaders among the people were trying to kill him.

And he was teaching daily in the temple. The chief priests and the scribes and the principal men of the people were seeking to destroy him,

After that, he taught daily in the Temple, but the leading priests, the teachers of religious law, and the other leaders of the people began planning how to kill him.

Every day he was teaching in the temple. The chief priests, the scribes, and the leaders of the people were looking for a way to kill him,

And He was teaching daily in the temple; but the chief priests and the scribes and the leading men among the people were trying to put Him to death,

And He was teaching daily in the temple. But the chief priests, the scribes, and the leaders of the people sought to destroy Him,

And he was teaching daily in the temple. But the chief priests and the scribes and the principal men of the people sought to destroy him:

Every day He was teaching in the temple complex. The chief priests, the scribes, and the leaders of the people were looking for a way to destroy Him,

And he taught daily in the temple. But the chief priests and the scribes and the chief of the people sought to destroy him,

Jesus was teaching daily in the temple courts. The chief priests and the experts in the law and the prominent leaders among the people were seeking to assassinate him,

He was teaching daily in the temple, but the chief priests, the scribes, and the leading men among the people sought to destroy him.

At that time Jesus spoke to the crowd.“ Am I leading a band of armed men against you?” he asked.“ Do you have to come out with swords and clubs to capture me? Every day I sat in the temple courtyard teaching. And you didn’t arrest me.

The chief priests and the teachers of the law heard about this. They began looking for a way to kill Jesus. They were afraid of him, because the whole crowd was amazed at his teaching.

Jesus and his disciples arrived again in Jerusalem. He was walking in the temple courtyard. Then the chief priests came to him. The teachers of the law and the elders came too.“ By what authority are you doing these things?” they asked.“ Who gave you authority to do this?”Jesus replied,“ I will ask you one question. Answer me, and I will tell you by what authority I am doing these things.Was John’s baptism from heaven? Or did it come from human authority? Tell me!”They talked to each other about it. They said,“ If we say,‘ From heaven,’ he will ask,‘ Then why didn’t you believe him?’But what if we say,‘ From human authority’?” They were afraid of the people. Everyone believed that John really was a prophet.So they answered Jesus,“ We don’t know.” Jesus said,“ Then I won’t tell you by what authority I am doing these things either.”

Each day Jesus taught at the temple. And each evening he went to spend the night on the hill called the Mount of Olives.All the people came to the temple early in the morning. They wanted to hear Jesus speak.

The Passover and the Feast of Unleavened Bread were only two days away. The chief priests and the teachers of the law were plotting to arrest Jesus secretly. They wanted to kill him.

“ I have spoken openly to the world,” Jesus replied.“ I always taught in synagogues or at the temple, where all the Jews come together. I didn’t say anything in secret.

Then the chief priests met with the elders of the people. They met in the palace of Caiaphas, the high priest.They made plans to arrest Jesus secretly. They wanted to kill him.

Didn’t Moses give you the law? But not one of you obeys the law. Why are you trying to kill me?”

Then the chief priests, the teachers of the law and the elders looked for a way to arrest Jesus. They knew he had told the story against them. But they were afraid of the crowd. So they left him and went away.

Again they tried to arrest him. But he escaped from them.

Some wanted to arrest him. But no one laid a hand on him.

So from that day on, the Jewish rulers planned to kill Jesus.Jesus no longer moved around openly among the people of Judea. Instead, he went away to an area near the desert. He went to a village called Ephraim. There he stayed with his disciples.It was almost time for the Jewish Passover Feast. Many people went up from the country to Jerusalem. They went there for the special washing that would make them pure before the Passover Feast.They kept looking for Jesus as they stood in the temple courtyard. They asked one another,“ What do you think? Isn’t he coming to the feast at all?”But the chief priests and the Pharisees had given orders. They had commanded anyone who found out where Jesus was staying to report it. Then they could arrest him.

I know that you are Abraham’s children. But you are looking for a way to kill me. You have no room for my word.I am telling you what I saw when I was with my Father. You are doing what you have heard from your father.”“ Abraham is our father,” they answered. Jesus said,“ Are you really Abraham’s children? If you are, you will do what Abraham did.But you are looking for a way to kill me. I am a man who has told you the truth I heard from God. Abraham didn’t do the things you want to do.

Jesus entered the temple courtyard. While he was teaching there, the chief priests and the elders of the people came to him.“ By what authority are you doing these things?” they asked.“ Who gave you this authority?”
