John 7:1-18

1 After these things, Jesus walked in Galilee, for He would not walk in Judea, because the Jews sought to kill Him.

2 Now the Jews' Feast of Tabernacles was at hand.

3 His brethren therefore said unto Him, "Depart hence and go into Judea, that thy disciples also may see the works that thou doest.

4 For no man doeth anything in secret if he himself seeketh to be known openly. If thou do these things, show thyself to the world."

5 For neither did His brethren believe in Him.

6 Then Jesus said unto them, "My time is not yet come, but your time is always ready.

7 The world cannot hate you, but Me it hateth, because I testify of it that the works thereof are evil.

8 Go ye up unto this feast. I go not up yet unto this feast, for My time is not yet fully come."

9 When He had said these words unto them, He remained still in Galilee.

10 But when His brethren had gone up, then He also went up unto the feast, not openly but, as it were, in secret.

11 Then the Jews sought Him at the feast and said, "Where is he?"

12 And there was much murmuring among the people concerning Him. For some said, "He is a good man," and others said, "Nay, for he deceiveth the people."

13 Yet no man spoke openly of Him for fear of the Jews.

14 Now about the midst of the feast, Jesus went up into the temple and taught.

15 And the Jews marveled, saying, "How knoweth this man letters, having never learned?"

16 Jesus answered them, "My doctrine is not Mine, but His that sent Me.

17 If any man will do His will, he shall know of the doctrine whether it be from God, or whether I speak from Myself.

18 He that speaketh from himself seeketh his own glory; but He that seeketh the glory of Him that sent Him, the same is true, and no unrighteousness is in Him.
