John 5:15-18

English Standard Version

¹⁵ The man went away and told the Jews that it was Jesus who had healed him. ¹⁶ And this was why the Jews ^(A)were persecuting Jesus, ^(B)because he was doing these things on the Sabbath. ¹⁷ But Jesus answered them, “My Father is working until now, and I am working.”

Jesus Is Equal with God

¹⁸ This was why the Jews ^(C)were seeking all the more to kill him, ^(D)because not only was he ^(E)breaking the Sabbath, but he was even calling God ^(F)his own Father, ^(G)making himself equal with God.
