he who would betray him, being one of the twelve.
007:001 After these things, Jesus was walking in Galilee, for he wouldn't
walk in Judea, because the Jews sought to kill him.
007:002 Now the feast of the Jews, the Feast of Booths, was at hand.
007:003 His brothers therefore said to him, "Depart from here,
and go into Judea, that your disciples also may see your works
which you do.
007:004 For no one does anything in secret, and himself seeks to be
known openly. If you do these things, reveal yourself
to the world."
007:005 For even his brothers didn't believe in him.
007:006 Jesus therefore said to them, "My time has not yet come,
but your time is always ready.
007:007 The world can't hate you, but it hates me, because I testify
about it, that its works are evil.
007:008 You go up to the feast. I am not yet going up to this feast,
because my time is not yet fulfilled."
007:009 Having said these things to them, he stayed in Galilee.
007:010 But when his brothers had gone up to the feast, then he also
went up, not publicly, but as it were in secret.
007:011 The Jews therefore sought him at the feast, and said,
"Where is he?"
007:012 There was much murmuring among the multitudes concerning him.
Some said, "He is a good man." Others said, "Not so,
but he leads the multitude astray."
007:013 Yet no one spoke openly of him for fear of the Jews.
007:014 But when it was now the midst of the feast, Jesus went up
into the temple and taught.
007:015 The Jews therefore marveled, saying, "How does this man
know letters, having never been educated?"
007:016 Jesus therefore answered them, "My teaching is not mine,
but his who sent me.
007:017 If anyone desires to do his will, he will know about the teaching,
whether it is from God, or if I am speaking from myself.
007:018 He who speaks from himself seeks his own glory, but he who seeks
the glory of him who sent him is true, and no unrighteousness
is in him.
007:019 Didn't Moses give you the law, and yet none of you keeps the law?
Why do you seek to kill me?"
007:020 The multitude answered, "You have a demon! Who seeks
to kill you?"
007:021 Jesus answered them, "I did one work, and you all marvel
because of it.
007:022 Moses has given you circumcision (not that it is of Moses,
