NARRATOR.<br />

<strong>The</strong> Pharisees upon hearing this said:<br />

PHARISEES.<br />

You're testifying on your own behalf, your testimony is not valid!<br />

JESUS. [to <strong>the</strong> Pharisees]<br />

It is true that I testify on my own behalf, never<strong>the</strong>less my testimony is still valid. For I know where I came from and where I am<br />

going. But you don't know where I've come from or where I'm going. You judge by human standards, I judge no man. And yet if I<br />

judge, my judgement is true, because I am not alone, <strong>the</strong> Fa<strong>the</strong>r who sent me is with me. It is also written in your law that <strong>the</strong><br />

testimony <strong>of</strong> two witnesses is valid. I am <strong>the</strong> one that gives testimony <strong>of</strong> myself and <strong>the</strong> Fa<strong>the</strong>r, who sent me, is my witness also.<br />

PHARISEES.<br />

Where is your fa<strong>the</strong>r?<br />

JESUS.<br />

You don't know me, nor do you know my Fa<strong>the</strong>r. If you had known me, you would have know my Fa<strong>the</strong>r also.<br />
