'Man' in the Bible

And immediately the man was made whole, and took up his bed, and walked: and on the same day was the sabbath.

so the Jews said to the man who had been healed, “This is the Sabbath! It’s illegal for you to pick up your mat.”

He replied, “The man who made me well told me, ‘Pick up your mat and walk.’”

Then asked they him, What man is that which said unto thee, Take up thy bed, and walk?

But the man who was cured did not know who it was, because Jesus had slipped away into the crowd that was there.

The man departed, and told the Jews that it was Jesus, which had made him whole.

For the Father judgeth no man, but hath committed all judgment unto the Son:

that all may honour the Son even as they honour the Father. The man who withholds honour from the Son withholds honour from the Father who sent Him.

Truly I say to you, The man whose ears are open to my word and who has faith in him who sent me, has eternal life; he will not be judged, but has come from death into life.

And hath given him authority to execute judgment also, because he is the Son of man.

But I receive not testimony from man: but these things I say, that ye might be saved.

That man John was a lamp that burns and brightly shines, and for a while you were willing to rejoice in his light.

glory from man I do not receive,

I have come in my Father's name, and you do not accept me. Yet if another man comes in his own name, you will accept him.

Labour not for the meat which perisheth, but for that meat which endureth unto everlasting life, which the Son of man shall give unto you: for him hath God the Father sealed.

They kept asking, "Is not this man Joseph's son? Is he not Jesus, whose father and mother we know? What does he mean by now saying, 'I have come down out of Heaven'?"

No man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me draw him: and I will raise him up at the last day.

It is written in the prophets, And they shall be all taught of God. Every man therefore that hath heard, and hath learned of the Father, cometh unto me.

Not that any man hath seen the Father, save he which is of God, he hath seen the Father.

This is the bread which cometh down from heaven, that a man may eat thereof, and not die.

I am the living bread which came down from heaven: if any man eat of this bread, he shall live for ever: and the bread that I will give is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world.

The Jews therefore strove among themselves, saying, How can this man give us his flesh to eat?

Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except ye eat the flesh of the Son of man, and drink his blood, ye have no life in you.

What and if ye shall see the Son of man ascend up where he was before?

And he said, Therefore said I unto you, that no man can come unto me, except it were given unto him of my Father.

Now he was speaking about Judas, the son of Simon Iscariot, because this man was going to betray him, even though he was one of the Twelve.

For there is no man that doeth any thing in secret, and he himself seeketh to be known openly. If thou do these things, shew thyself to the world.

The Jewish leaders kept looking for him at the festival, asking, "Where is that man?"

And there was much murmuring among the people concerning him: for some said, He is a good man: others said, Nay; but he deceiveth the people.

Howbeit no man spake openly of him for fear of the Jews.

And the Jews marvelled, saying, How knoweth this man letters, having never learned?

If any man will do his will, he shall know of the doctrine, whether it be of God, or whether I speak of myself.

The person who speaks on his own authority desires to receive honor for himself; the one who desires the honor of the one who sent him is a man of integrity, and there is no unrighteousness in him.

Did not Moses give you the Law? And yet not a man of you obeys the Law. Why do you want to kill me?"

Moses therefore gave unto you circumcision; (not because it is of Moses, but of the fathers;) and ye on the sabbath day circumcise a man.

If a man on the sabbath day receive circumcision, that the law of Moses should not be broken; are ye angry at me, because I have made a man every whit whole on the sabbath day?

Some of the people of Jerusalem were saying, “Isn’t this the man they want to kill?

Yet here he is, speaking publicly, and they are saying nothing to him. Do the rulers really know that this man is the Christ?

Howbeit we know this man whence he is: but when Christ cometh, no man knoweth whence he is.

Then they sought to take him: but no man laid hands on him, because his hour was not yet come.

And many of the people believed on him, and said, When Christ cometh, will he do more miracles than these which this man hath done?

Then the Jewish leaders asked one another, "Where does this man intend to go that we won't be able to find him? Surely he's not going to the Dispersion among the Greeks and teach the Greeks, is he?

In the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried, saying, If any man thirst, let him come unto me, and drink.

Then, [when they] heard these words, [some] from the crowd began to say, "This man is truly the Prophet!"

Others were saying, "This man is the Christ!" But others were saying, "No, for the Christ does not come from Galilee, [does he]?

And some of them would have taken him; but no man laid hands on him.

The officers answered, Never man spake like this man.

One of their own, Nicodemus (the man who had previously met with Jesus), asked them,

Doth our law judge any man, before it hear him, and know what he doeth?

And every man went unto his own house.

When however they persisted with their question, He raised His head and said to them, "Let the sinless man among you be the first to throw a stone at her."

When Jesus had lifted up himself, and saw none but the woman, he said unto her, Woman, where are those thine accusers? hath no man condemned thee?

She said, No man, Lord. And Jesus said unto her, Neither do I condemn thee: go, and sin no more.

Once more Jesus addressed them. "I am the Light of the world," He said; "the man who follows me shall certainly not walk in the dark, but shall have the light of Life."

Ye judge after the flesh; I judge no man.

These words spake Jesus in the treasury, as he taught in the temple: and no man laid hands on him; for his hour was not yet come.

Then said Jesus unto them, When ye have lifted up the Son of man, then shall ye know that I am he, and that I do nothing of myself; but as my Father hath taught me, I speak these things.

They answered him, We be Abraham's seed, and were never in bondage to any man: how sayest thou, Ye shall be made free?

But now ye seek to kill me, a man that hath told you the truth, which I have heard of God: this did not Abraham.

Verily, verily, I say unto you, If a man keep my saying, he shall never see death.

Then said the Jews unto him, Now we know that thou hast a devil. Abraham is dead, and the prophets; and thou sayest, If a man keep my saying, he shall never taste of death.

And as Jesus passed by, he saw a man which was blind from his birth.

And his disciples asked him, saying, Master, who did sin, this man, or his parents, that he was born blind?

Jesus answered, Neither hath this man sinned, nor his parents: but that the works of God should be made manifest in him.

I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work.

When he had thus spoken, he spat on the ground, and made clay of the spittle, and he anointed the eyes of the blind man with the clay,

and said to him, "Go wash in the pool of Siloam" (which is translated "sent"). So the blind man went away and washed, and came back seeing.

His neighbors and those who formerly had seen him as a beggar said, “Isn’t this the man who sat begging?”

Some people said, "This is the man!" while others said, "No, but he looks like him." The man himself kept insisting, "I am the one!"

He answered and said, A man that is called Jesus made clay, and anointed mine eyes, and said unto me, Go to the pool of Siloam, and wash: and I went and washed, and I received sight.

They asked him, "Where is that man?" He said, "I don't know!"

They brought the man who used to be blind to the Pharisees.

Therefore said some of the Pharisees, This man is not of God, because he keepeth not the sabbath day. Others said, How can a man that is a sinner do such miracles? And there was a division among them.

They say unto the blind man again, What sayest thou of him, that he hath opened thine eyes? He said, He is a prophet.

The Jewish leaders did not believe that the man had been blind and had gained sight until they summoned his parents

And they asked them, saying, "Is this man your son, whom you say was born blind? Then how does he now see?"

So his parents answered and said, "We know that this man is our son, and that he was born blind.

These words spake his parents, because they feared the Jews: for the Jews had agreed already, that if any man did confess that he was Christ, he should be put out of the synagogue.

Then again called they the man that was blind, and said unto him, Give God the praise: we know that this man is a sinner.

Then that man replied, "Whether he is a sinner I do not know. One [thing] I know--that [although I] was blind, now I see!"

We know that God has spoken to Moses. But this man—we don’t know where He’s from!”

The man answered and said unto them, Why herein is a marvellous thing, that ye know not from whence he is, and yet he hath opened mine eyes.

Now we know that God heareth not sinners: but if any man be a worshipper of God, and doeth his will, him he heareth.

Since the world began was it not heard that any man opened the eyes of one that was born blind.

If this man were not of God, he could do nothing.

When Jesus heard that they had thrown the man out, He found him and asked, “Do you believe in the Son of Man?”

The man replied, "And who is he, sir, that I may believe in him?"

"In most solemn truth I tell you that the man who does not enter the sheepfold by the door, but climbs over some other way, is a thief and a robber.

The doorkeeper opens [the gate] for this man, and the sheep hear his voice and pay attention to it. And [knowing that they listen] he calls his own sheep by name and leads them out [to pasture].

I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture.

The hired man, since he is not the shepherd and doesn’t own the sheep, leaves them and runs away when he sees a wolf coming. The wolf then snatches and scatters them.

This happens because he is a hired man and doesn’t care about the sheep.

No man taketh it from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This commandment have I received of my Father.

Others were saying, "These are not the words of a man who is demon-possessed. A demon cannot open the eyes of the blind, can it?"

And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.

My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father's hand.

The Jews answered him, saying, For a good work we stone thee not; but for blasphemy; and because that thou, being a man, makest thyself God.

And many resorted unto him, and said, John did no miracle: but all things that John spake of this man were true.

Now a certain man was sick, named Lazarus, of Bethany, the town of Mary and her sister Martha.

Jesus answered, Are there not twelve hours in the day? If any man walk in the day, he stumbleth not, because he seeth the light of this world.
