Jesus Is Equal with God

18 This was why the Jews ^zwere seeking all the more to kill him, ^abecause not only was he ^bbreaking the Sabbath, but he was even calling God ^chis own Father, ^dmaking himself equal with God.

37 I know that you are offspring of Abraham; yet ^jyou seek to kill me because my word finds no place in you.

40 but now ^oyou seek to kill me, a man who has told you the truth ^pthat I heard from God. This is not what Abraham did.

53 So from that day on they ^cmade plans to put him to death.
