Notes

John 5:14

Stop sinning: Although Jesus healed this man physically, the man still needed to learn to obey the Lord. The man's next action (5:15) might indicate that he did not listen.

John 5:1–40

This chapter is structured like a courtroom case (a legal trial). It begins with a description of the event that led to the conflict (5:1–15). This is followed by the decision of the Jewish leaders to take action against Jesus (5:16). Next comes a statement of the charges against him (5:18). The chapter then presents the defense given by Jesus, where he explains his authority and his relationship with the Father (5:17, 19–40).
