John
John 7:3–10
3So Jesus’ brothers said to Him, “Leave here and go to Judea, so that Your disciples there may see the works You are doing. 4For no one who wants to be known publicly acts in secret. Since You are doing these things, show Yourself to the world.” 5For even His own brothers did not believe in Him.
6Therefore Jesus told them, “Although your time is always at hand, My time has not yet come. 7The world cannot hate you, but it hates Me, because I testify that its works are evil. 8Go up to the feast on your own. I am notb going up to this feast, because My time has not yet come.”
9Having said this, Jesus remained in Galilee. 10But after His brothers had gone up to the feast, He also went — not publicly, but in secret.
