JOHN 7:2

not walk in TJewry, because the Judea Jews sought to kill him. 2 RNow the Jews’ feast of tabLev. 23:34 ernacles was at hand. 3 RHis brethren therefore said unto him, Depart hence, and go into Ju-dae′-a, that thy disciples also may see the works that thou doest. Matt. 12:46; Mark 3:21; Acts 1:14 4 For there is no man that doeth any thing in secret, Tand he himself seeketh to be known openly. If thou do these things, while shew thyself to the world. ★ 5 For neither did his Rbrethren Matt. 12:46; 13:55 believe in him. 6 Then Jesus said unto them, R My time is not yet come: but your 2:4; 8:20 time is alway ready. 7 RThe world cannot hate you; but me it hateth, Rbecause I testify of it, that the works thereof are [15:19] · 3:19 evil. 8 Go ye up unto this feast: I go not up yet unto this feast; Rfor my 8:20 time is not yet full come. 9 When he had said these words unto them, he Tabode still remained in Galilee. 10 But when his brethren were gone up, then went he also up unto the feast, not openly, but as it were in secret. 11 Then the Jews sought him at the feast, and said, Where is he? 12 And Rthere was much murmuring among the people concerning him: for some said, He is a good man: others said, Nay; but he deceiveth the people. 9:16; 10:19 13 Howbeit no man spake openly of him for fear of the Jews. ★ 14 Now about the midst of the feast Jesus went up into the temple, and Rtaught. Ps. 22:22; Matt. 4:23 15 And the Jews marvelled, saying, How knoweth this man letters, having never learned? 16 Jesus answered them, and said, RMy doctrine is not mine, but Deut. 18:15, 18, 19 his that sent me. 17 RIf any man will do his will, he shall know of the doctrine, whether it be of God, or whether I 3:21; 8:43 speak of myself. 18 RHe that speaketh of himself
seeketh his own glory: but he that R seeketh his glory that sent him, the same is true, and Rno unrighteousness is in him. 5:41 · 8:50 · 8:46 19 RDid not Moses give you the law, and yet none of you keepeth the law? RWhy go ye about to kill Acts 7:38 · Matt. 12:14 me? 20 The people answered and said, RThou hast a devil: who 8:48, 52 goeth about to kill thee? 21 Jesus answered and said unto them, I have done one work, and ye all marvel. 22 RMoses therefore gave unto you circumcision; (not because it is of Moses, Rbut of the fathers;) and ye on the sabbath day circumcise a man. Lev. 12:3 · Gen. 17:9–14 23 If a man on the sabbath day receive circumcision, that the law of Moses should not be broken; are ye angry at me, because RI have made a man every whit whole on the sabbath day? 5:8, 9, 16 24 RJudge not according to the appearance, but judge righteous judgment. 8:15; Prov. 24:23; James 2:1 25 Then said some of them of Jerusalem, Is not this he, whom 5:18; 8:37, 40 they seek to Rkill? 26 But, lo, he speaketh boldly, and they say nothing unto him. R Do the rulers know indeed that v. 48 this is the very Christ? 27 RHowbeit we know this man whence he is: but when Christ cometh, no man knoweth whence Matt. 13:55; Mark 6:3; Luke 4:22 he is. 28 Then cried Jesus in the temple as he taught, saying, RYe both know me, and ye know whence I am: and RI am not come of myself, but he that sent me is true, Rwhom 8:14 · 5:43 · 1:18; 8:55 ye know not. 29 But I know him: for I am from him, and he hath sent me. 30 Then Rthey sought to take him: but Rno man laid hands on him, because his hour was not yet Mark 11:18 · Matt. 21:46 come. 31 And Rmany of the people believed on him, and said, When Christ cometh, will he do more T miracles than these which this Matt. 12:23 · signs man hath done?
