John 7:20 in context

The verses around it, from John 7.

16 “My teaching is not My own,” Jesus replied. “It comes from Him who sent Me.

17 If anyone desires to do His will, he will know whether My teaching is from God or whether I speak on My own.

18 He who speaks on his own authority seeks his own glory, but He who seeks the glory of the One who sent Him is a man of truth; in Him there is no falsehood.

19 Has not Moses given you the law? Yet not one of you keeps it. Why are you trying to kill Me?”

20 “You have a demon,” the crowd replied. “Who is trying to kill You?”

21 Jesus answered them, “I did one miracle, and you are all amazed.

22 But because Moses gave you circumcision, you circumcise a boy on the Sabbath (not that it is from Moses, but from the patriarchs.)

23 If a boy can be circumcised on the Sabbath so that the law of Moses will not be broken, why are you angry with Me for making the whole man well on the Sabbath?

24 Stop judging by outward appearances, and start judging justly.”
