27. And they understood not, that he called God his Father.
28. Jesus therefore said to them: When you shall have lifted up the Son of man, then shall you know, that I am he, and that I do nothing of myself, but as the Father hath taught me, these things I speak:
29. And he that sent me, is with me, and he hath not left me alone: for I do always the things that please him.
30. When he spoke these things, many believed in him.
31. Then Jesus said to those Jews, who believed him: If you continue in my word, you shall be my disciples indeed.
32. And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.
33. They answered him: We are the seed of Abraham, and we have never been slaves to any man: how sayest thou: you shall be free?
34. Jesus answered them: Amen, amen I say unto you: that whosoever committeth sin, is the servant of sin.
35. Now the servant abideth not in the house for ever; but the son abideth for ever.
36. If therefore the son shall make you free, you shall be free indeed.
37. I know that you are the children of Abraham: but you seek to kill me, because my word hath no place in you.
38. I speak that which I have seen with my Father: and you do the things that you have seen with your father.
39. They answered, and said to him: Abraham is our father. Jesus saith to them: If you be the children of Abraham, do the works of Abraham.
