John 7:1-9
Jesus Teaches at the Feast of Booths
7And after these things Jesus awas walking in Galilee, for He was unwilling to walk in Judea because bthe Jews cwere seeking to kill Him. 2Now the feast of the Jews, athe Feast of Booths, was near. 3Therefore His abrothers said to Him, “Leave here and go into Judea, so that Your bdisciples also may see Your works which You are doing. 4“For no one does anything in secret 1when he himself seeks to be known openly. If You do these things, show Yourself publicly to the world.” 5For not even His abrothers were believing in Him. 6So Jesus *said to them, “aMy time is not yet here, but your time is always here. 7“aThe world cannot hate you, but it hates Me because I bear witness about it, that bits deeds are evil. 8“Go up to the feast yourselves; I am not 1yet going up to this feast because aMy time has not yet been fulfilled.” 9Having said these things to them, He stayed in Galilee.
