Verse
John - ch 7 v 1 - 20
- And after these things Jesus walked in Galilee, for he would not walk in Judaea, because the Jews sought to kill him.
- Now the tabernacles, the feast of the Jews, was near.
- His brethren therefore said to him, Remove hence and go into Judaea, that thy disciples also may see thy works which thou doest;
- for no one does anything in secret and himself seeks to be known in public. If thou doest these things, manifest thyself to the world:
- for neither did his brethren believe on him.
- Jesus therefore says to them, My time is not yet come, but your time is always ready.
- The world cannot hate you, but me it hates, because I bear witness concerning it that its works are evil.
- Ye, go ye up to this feast. I go not up to this feast, for my time is not yet fulfilled.
- Having said these things to them he abode in Galilee.
- But when his brethren had gone up, then he himself also went up to the feast, not openly, but as in secret.
- The Jews therefore sought him at the feast, and said, Where is he?
- And there was much murmuring concerning him among the crowds. Some said, He is a good man; others said, No; but he deceives the crowd.
- However, no one spoke openly concerning him on account of their fear of the Jews.
- But when it was now the middle of the feast, Jesus went up into the temple and taught.
- The Jews therefore wondered, saying, How knows this man letters, having never learned?
- Jesus therefore answered them and said, My doctrine is not mine, but that of him that has sent me.
- If any one desire to practise his will, he shall know concerning the doctrine, whether it is of God, or that I speak from myself.
- He that speaks from himself seeks his own glory; but he that seeks the glory of him that has sent him, he is true, and unrighteousness is not in him.
- Has not Moses given you the law, and no one of you practises the law? Why do ye seek to kill me?
- The crowd answered and said, Thou hast a demon: who seeks to kill thee?
