Why the Pharisees Rejected Jesus’ Testimony (John 8:12-20)

In this passage, Jesus proclaims, “I am the light of the world,” promising that anyone who follows him will never walk in darkness. The Pharisees challenge his authority, arguing that his testimony alone cannot be valid. Jesus responds that his witness is confirmed by the Father who sent him, fulfilling their own law requiring two witnesses. When they question him about his Father, he explains that knowing him means knowing the Father as well. This exchange occurs in the temple courts beside the place of offerings.
