Truly, Truly...
Truly, Truly...
In 1956 a game show created by Bob Stewart, produced by Goodson and Todman Productions, Aired for 25 years on TV and has had (3) subsequent revivals… and currently airs on ABC…
The show… “To Tell The Truth”…,
The basic rules have not changed over the years...
Three challengers are introduced, all claiming to be the central character. The announcer typically asks the challengers, "What is your name, please?" Each challenger then states, "My name is [central character's name]." The celebrity panelists then read along as the host reads aloud a signed affidavit about the central character - Details of the central characters life and accomplishments...
The panelists are each given a period of time to question the challengers. Questions are directed to the challengers by number (Number One, Number Two and Number Three), with the central character sworn to give truthful answers, and the impostors permitted to lie and pretend to be the central character.
After questioning is complete, each member of the panel votes on which of the challengers they believe to be the central character, once the votes are in, the host asks, "Will the real [person's name] please stand up?" The central character then stands...
Once the votes are in, the host asks, "Will the real [person's name] please stand up?" The central character then stands,
16 For this reason the Jews persecuted Jesus, and sought to kill Him, because He had done these things on the Sabbath.
17 But Jesus answered them, “My Father has been working until now, and I have been working.”
18 Therefore the Jews sought all the more to kill Him, because He not only broke the Sabbath, but also said that God was His Father, making Himself equal with God.
19 Then Jesus answered and said to them, “Most assuredly, I say to you, the Son can do nothing of Himself, but what He sees the Father do; for whatever He does, the Son also does in like manner.
20 For the Father loves the Son, and shows Him all things that He Himself does; and He will show Him greater works than these, that you may marvel.
21 For as the Father raises the dead and gives life to them, even so the Son gives life to whom He will.
22 For the Father judges no one, but has committed all judgment to the Son,
23 that all should honor the Son just as they honor the Father. He who does not honor the Son does not honor the Father who sent Him.
24 “Most assuredly, I say to you, he who hears My word and believes in Him who sent Me has everlasting life, and shall not come into judgment, but has passed from death into life.
25 Most assuredly, I say to you, the hour is coming, and now is, when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God; and those who hear will live.
26 For as the Father has life in Himself, so He has granted the Son to have life in Himself,
27 and has given Him authority to execute judgment also, because He is the Son of Man.
28 Do not marvel at this; for the hour is coming in which all who are in the graves will hear His voice
29 and come forth—those who have done good, to the resurrection of life, and those who have done evil, to the resurrection of condemnation.
30 I can of Myself do nothing. As I hear, I judge; and My judgment is righteous, because I do not seek My own will but the will of the Father who sent Me.
Verse 16 begins with a conjunction and connects us to the previous verse, and text…
For this reason the Jews persecuted Jesus…
Previously, they didn’t know it was Jesus who healed the man...
Previously, the man did not know it was Jesus who healed him...
Jesus found him in the temple, dialoged with him…
The man discovered who it was that healed him...
The man went and told the Jews it was Jesus
It was Jesus who had healed him
It was Jesus who instructed him to violate the Sabbath
And sought to kill Him, because He had done these things on the Sabbath…
