John 7:9

Verse 9 of 53. The 7th of 21 chapters in John, in The Gospels.

5For even his brothers didn’t believe in him.

6Jesus therefore said to them, “My time has not yet come, but your time is always ready.

7The world can’t hate you, but it hates me, because I testify about it, that its works are evil.

8You go up to the feast. I am not yet going up to this feast, because my time is not yet fulfilled.”

9Having said these things to them, he stayed in Galilee.

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

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

12There 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.”

13Yet no one spoke openly of him for fear of the Jews.
