In context
31 Then Jesus said to those Jews who believed him: If you continue in my word, you shall be my disciples indeed.
32 And you shall know the truth: and the truth shall make you free.
33 They answered him: We are the seed of Abraham: and we have never been slaves to any man. How sayest thou: You shall be free?
34 Jesus answered them: Amen, amen, I say unto you that whosoever committeth sin is the servant of sin.
35 Now the servant abideth not in the house for ever: but the son abideth for ever.
36 If therefore the son shall make you free, you shall be free indeed.
37 I know that you are the children of Abraham: but you seek to kill me, because my word hath no place in you.
