31 Jesus therefore said to those Jews that had believed him, If ye abide in my word, then are ye truly my disciples;
32 and ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.
33 They answered unto him, We are Abraham’s seed, and have never yet been in bondage to any man: how sayest thou, Ye shall be made free?
34 Jesus answered them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Every one that committeth sin is the bondservant of sin.

36 If therefore the Son shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.
37 I know that ye are Abraham’s seed; yet ye seek to kill me, because my word hath not free course in you.
