We find here that the Lord Jesus revealed many wonderful truths of the greatness and glory of His His Person to those Jews who were most opposed to Him. They did not want to receive the truth from Him; that He was the Son of God, and one with the Father. It says in verse 31 that they took up stones again to stone Him." They had done this once before in chapter 8 of John, when He said to them, that before Abraham was born, I Am. Here they take up stones once again; great fine ones, in order to immediately put to death this good Man who they wrongly thought was a blasphemer. At this hour I want to give you 3 observations on how the Lord Jesus faced this persecution that was coming to our Him.

There are many good things that we can learn from our Lord, here, that will help us very much.
