"Jesus answered them, Many good works have I showed you from the Father; for which of those works do ye stone me?" — John 10:32 (ASV)
Many good works. Many miracles of benevolence—healing the sick, and so on. His miracles were good works, as they tended to promote the happiness of people, and were proofs of his benevolence. He had performed no other works than those of benevolence; he knew that they could charge him with no other, and he confidently appealed to them as witnesses of that. Happy would it be if all, when they are opposed and persecuted, could appeal even to their persecutors in proof of their own innocence.
