Context of John 7:10

8Go to the festival. I’m not going to this festival right now. Now is not the right time for me to go.” 9After saying this, Jesus stayed in Galilee. But after his brothers had gone to the festival, Jesus went. He didn’t go publicly but secretly. 11The Jews were looking for Jesus in the crowd at the festival. They kept asking, “Where is that man?” 12The crowds argued about Jesus. Some people said, “He’s a good man,” while others said, “No he isn’t. He deceives the people.”
