-
After these things Jesus walked in Galilee: for he would not walk in Judea, because the Jews sought to kill him.
-
Now the Jews' feast of tabernacles was at hand.
-
His brethren therefore said to him, Depart hence, and go into Judea, that thy disciples also may see the works that thou doest.
-
For [there is] no man [that] doeth any thing in secret, and he himself seeketh to be known openly. If thou doest these things, show thyself to the world.
-
(For neither did his brethren believe in him.)
-
Then Jesus said to them, My time is not yet come: but your time is always ready.
-
The world cannot hate you; but me it hateth, because I testify concerning it, that its works are evil.
-
Go ye up to this feast: I go not yet to this feast, for my time is not yet full come.
-
When he had said these words to them, he abode [still] in Galilee.
-
But when his brethren had gone up, then he went also to the feast, not openly, but as it were in secret.
-
Then the Jews sought him at the feast, and said, Where is he?
-
And there was much murmuring among the people concerning him: for some said, He is a good man: others said, No; but he deceiveth the people.
-
Yet, no man spoke openly of him, for fear of the Jews.
-
Now about the midst of the feast, Jesus went up into the temple, and taught.
-
And the Jews marveled, saying, How knoweth this man letters, having never learned?
-
Jesus answered them, and said, My doctrine is not mine, but his that sent me.
-
If any man will do his will, he shall know concerning the doctrine, whether it is from God, or [whether] I speak from myself.
-
He that speaketh from himself, seeketh his own glory: but he that seeketh his glory that sent him, the same is true, and no unrighteousness is in him.
-
Did not Moses give you the law, and [yet] none of you keepeth the law? Why go ye about to kill me?
-
The people answered and said, Thou hast a demon: who goeth about to kill thee?
-
Jesus answered and said to them, I have done one work, and ye all marvel.
-
Moses therefore gave to you circumcision, (not because it is from Moses, but from the fathers) and ye on the sabbath circumcise a man.
-
If a man on the sabbath receiveth circumcision, that the law of Moses should not be broken; are ye angry at me, because I have restored a man to sound health on the sabbath?
-
Judge not according to the appearance, but judge righteous judgment.
-
Then said some of them of Jerusalem, Is not this he whom they seek to kill?
-
But lo, he speaketh boldly, and they say nothing to him. Do the rulers know indeed that this is the very Christ?
-
But we know this man, whence he is: whereas when Christ cometh, no man knoweth whence he is.
-
Then cried Jesus in the temple, as he taught, saying, Ye both know me, and ye know whence I am: and I am not come of myself, but he that sent me is true, whom ye know not.
-
But I know him; for I am from him, and he hath sent me.
-
Then they sought to take him: but no man laid hands on him, because his hour was not yet come.
-
And many of the people believed on him, and said, When Christ cometh, will he do more miracles than these which this [man] hath done?
-
The Pharisees heard that the people murmured such things concerning him: and the Pharisees and the chief priests sent officers to take him.
-
Then said Jesus to them, Yet a little while am I with you, and [then] I go to him that sent me.
-
Ye will seek me, and will not find [me]: and where I am, [thither] ye cannot come.
-
Then said the Jews among themselves, Whither will he go, that we shall not find him? will he go to the dispersed among the Gentiles, and teach the Gentiles?
-
What [manner of] saying is this that he said, Ye will seek me, and will not find [me]: and where I am, [thither] ye cannot come?
-
In the last day, that great [day] of the feast, Jesus stood and cried, saying, If any man thirsteth, let him come to me, and drink.
-
He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water.
-
(But this he spoke of the Spirit, which they that believe on him should receive, for the Holy Spirit was not yet [given], because that Jesus was not yet glorified.)
-
Many of the people therefore, when they heard this saying, said, In truth this is the Prophet.
-
Others said, This is the Christ. But some said, Will Christ come out of Galilee?
-
Hath not the scripture said, That Christ cometh from the seed of David, and out of the town of Bethlehem, where David was?
-
So there was a division among the people because of him.
-
And some of them would have taken him; but no man laid hands on him.
-
Then came the officers to the chief priests and Pharisees; and they said to them, Why have ye not brought him?
-
The officers answered, Never man spoke like this man.
-
Then the Pharisees answered them, Are ye also deceived?
-
Have any of the rulers, or of the Pharisees believed on him?
-
But this people who know not the law are cursed.
-
Nicodemus saith to them, (he that came to Jesus by night, being one of them)
-
Doth our law judge [any] man before it heareth him, and knoweth what he doeth?
-
They answered and said to him, Art thou also from Galilee? Search, and look: for out of Galilee ariseth no prophet.
-
And every man went to his own house.
