John 7:1-10 ▼

1 After these things Jesus walked about in Galilee: for He was not willing to walk about in Judea, because the Jews were seeking to kill Him.

2 And the feast of the Jews, tabernacles, was nigh.

3 Then His brothers said to Him; Depart hence, and go into Judea; in order that thy disciples shall see thy works which thou art doing. For no one does anything in secret, and Himself seeks to be public.

4 If thou doest these things, show thyself to the world.

5 For His brothers were not believing on Him.

6 Jesus says to them, My time is not yet; but your time is always ready.

7 The world is not able to hate you; but it hates me, because I testify against it, that its works are evil.

8 You go up to the feast: I do not go to this feast; because my time is not yet fulfilled.

9 Saying these things He remained in Galilee.

10 And when His brothers went up to the feast, then Himself also went up, not openly, but in secret.
