JEWELS From the GOSPEL of JOHN: LAW BREAKERS – JOHN 7:19-23

Who is seeking to kill You?" 21 Jesus answered and said to them, "I did one work, and you all marvel. 22 "Moses therefore gave you circumcision (not that it is from Moses, but from the fathers), and you circumcise a man on the Sabbath. 23 "If a man receives circumcision on the Sabbath, so that the law of Moses should not be broken, are yo
u angry with Me because I made a man completely well on the Sabbath?
