39“Abraham is our father,” they replied. “If you were children of Abraham,” said Jesus, “you would do the works of Abraham.
40But now you are trying to kill Me, a man who has told you the truth that I heard from God. Abraham never did such a thing.
41You are doing the works of your father.” “We are not illegitimate children,” they declared. “Our only Father is God Himself.”
