John 7:18

---

← John 7:17 [words of Jesus]	John 7:18 (KJV) [words of Jesus]	John 7:19 [words of Jesus] →
If any man will do his will, he shall know of the doctrine, whether it be of God, or [whether] I speak of myself.	He that speaketh of himself seeketh his own glory: but he that seeketh his glory that sent him, the same is true, and no unrighteousness is in him.	Did not Moses give you the law, and [yet] none of you keepeth the law? Why go ye about to kill me?

Compare πυνθάνομαι.
• G2398 — ἴδιος (ídios, id'-ee-os): one's own, private, personal — of uncertain affinity; pertaining to self, i.e. one's own; by implication, private or separate:--X his acquaintance, when they were alone, apart, aside, due, his (own, proper, several), home, (her, our, thine, your) own (business), private(-ly), proper, severally, their (own).
