John:7:1-13
Seeker Overlay ON
*
After these things Jesus walked in Galilee :
for he would not walk in Jewry ,
because the Jews sought to kill him .
*
Now the Jews '
feast of tabernacles was at hand .
*
His brethren therefore said unto him ,
Depart hence ,
and go into Judaea ,
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 do these things ,
shew thyself to the world .
*
For neither did his brethren believe in him .
*
Then Jesus said unto them ,
My time is not yet come :
but your time is alway ready .
*
The world cannot hate you ;
but me it hateth ,
because I testify of it ,
that the works thereof are evil .
*
Go ye up unto this feast :
I go not up yet unto this feast ;
for my time is not yet full come .
*
When he had said these words unto them ,
he abode still in Galilee .
*
But when his brethren were gone up ,
then went he also up unto 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 ,
Nay ;
but he deceiveth the people .
*
Howbeit no man spake openly of him for fear of the Jews .
