John 7:1-6

Jesus goes to Jerusalem

1 After this Jesus traveled throughout Galilee. He didn't want to travel in Judea, because the Jewish authorities wanted to kill him.
2 When it was almost time for the Jewish Festival of Booths,
3 Jesus' brothers said to him, "Leave Galilee. Go to Judea so that your disciples can see the amazing works that you do.
4 Those who want to be known publicly don't do things secretly. Since you can do these things, show yourself to the world."
5 His brothers said this because even they didn't believe in him.
6 Jesus replied, " For you, anytime is fine. But my time hasn't come yet.
