John 7:2-13

2Now the feast of the Jews, the feast of tabernacles, was at hand.

3His brethren therefore said unto him, Depart hence, and go into Judaea, that thy disciples also may behold thy works which thou doest.

4For no man doeth anything in secret, and himself seeketh to be known openly. If thou doest these things, manifest thyself to the world.

5For even his brethren did not believe on him.

6Jesus therefore saith unto them, My time is not yet come; but your time is alway ready.

7The world cannot hate you; but me it hateth, because I testify of it, that its works are evil.

8Go ye up unto the feast: I go not up yet unto this feast; because my time is not yet fulfilled.

9And having said these things unto them, he abode still in Galilee.

10But when his brethren were gone up unto the feast, then went he also up, not publicly, but as it were in secret.

11The Jews therefore sought him at the feast, and said, Where is he?

12And there was much murmuring among the multitudes concerning him: some said, He is a good man; others said, Not so, but he leadeth the multitude astray.

13Howbeit no man spake openly of him for fear of the Jews.
