Afterthese thingsJesuswalkedinGalilee: forhe wouldnotwalkinJewry, becausetheJewssoughtto killhim. NowtheJews' feastof tabernacleswasat hand. Hisbrethrenthereforesaiduntohim, Departhence, andgointoJudea, thatthydisciplesalsomay seetheworksthatthou doest. For there is no man that doethany thinginsecret, andhehimself seekethto beknown openly. Ifthou dothese things, showthyselfto theworld. Forneitherdid hisbrethrenbelieveinhim. ThenJesussaidunto them, Mytime is not yetcome: butyourtimeisalwaysready. Theworldcannothateyou; butme it hateth, becauseItestifyofit, thattheworksthereofareevil. Go ye upuntothisfeast: I go not up yetuntothisfeast; formytime is not yet full come. Whenhe had saidthese wordsunto them, he abode still inGalilee. Butwhenhisbrethrenwere gone up, thenwent he also upuntothefeast, notopenly, butas it wereinsecret. ThentheJewssoughthimatthefeast, andsaid, Whereishe? Andthere wasmuchmurmuringamongthepeopleconcerninghim: forsomesaid, He isa good man: otherssaid, Nay; buthe deceiveththepeople. Howbeitno manspakeopenlyofhimforfearof theJews. Nowaboutthe midstof thefeastJesuswent upintothetemple, andtaught. AndtheJewsmarveled, saying, Howknoweththis manletters, having neverlearned? Jesusansweredthem, andsaid, Mydoctrineisnotmine, but his that sentme. If any manwilldohiswill, he shall knowofthedoctrine, whether it beofGod, or whether Ispeakofmyself. He that speakethofhimselfseeketh his ownglory: but he that seeketh his glory that senthim, the sameistrue, andnounrighteousnessisinhim. Did notMosesgiveyouthelaw, and yet noneofyoukeepeththelaw? Why go ye about to killme? Thepeopleansweredandsaid, Thou hasta devil: whogoeth aboutto killthee? Jesusansweredandsaidunto them, I have doneonework, and ye allmarvel. Mosesthereforegave unto youcircumcision; ( notbecause it isofMoses, butofthefathers;) and ye on the sabbath daycircumcise a man. If a manon the sabbath dayreceivecircumcision, thatthelaw of Moses should not be broken; are ye angry at me, because I have made a man every whitwholeon the sabbath day? Judgenotaccording to the appearance, butjudgerighteousjudgment. Thensaidsomeofthem of Jerusalem, Isnotthishe, whomthey seekto kill? But, lo, he speakethboldly, andthey saynothingunto him. DotherulersknowindeedthatthisistheveryChrist? Howbeitwe knowthis manwhencehe is: butwhenChristcometh, no manknowethwhencehe is. ThencriedJesusinthetempleas he taught, saying, Ye both know me, and ye knowwhence I am: and I am notcomeofmyself, but he that sentmeistrue, whomyeknownot. ButIknowhim: for I amfromhim, and he hath sentme. Thenthey soughtto takehim: butno manlaidhandsonhim, becausehishourwas not yetcome. Andmanyofthepeoplebelievedonhim, andsaid, WhenChristcometh, will hedomoremiraclesthan thesewhichthis man hath done? ThePhariseesheardthat thepeoplemurmuredsuch thingsconcerninghim; andthePhariseesandthechief priestssentofficerstotakehim. ThensaidJesusunto them, Yet a littlewhileam I withyou, and then I gounto him that sentme. Ye shall seekme, and shall notfind me : andwhereIam, thither yecannotcome. ThensaidtheJewsamongthemselves, Whitherwillhego, thatweshall notfindhim? willhegountothedispersedamong theGentiles, andteachtheGentiles? What manner of sayingisthisthathe said, Ye shall seekme, andshall notfind me : andwhereIam, thither yecannotcome? Inthelastday, that great day of thefeast, Jesusstoodandcried, saying, If any manthirst, let him comeuntome, anddrink. He that believethonme, astheScripture hath said, out ofhisbelly shall flowrivers of livingwater. ( Butthisspakehe oftheSpirit, whichthey that believeonhimshouldreceive: forthe HolyGhostwasnot yet given ; becausethat Jesuswas not yetglorified.) Manyofthepeopletherefore, when they heardthis saying, said, Of a truththisistheProphet. Otherssaid, ThisistheChrist. Butsomesaid, ShallChristcomeout ofGalilee? Hath nottheScripturesaid, ThatChristcomethoftheseedof David, andout ofthetownof Bethlehem, whereDavidwas? Sothere wasa divisionamongthepeoplebecauseof him. Andsomeofthemwouldhave takenhim; butno manlaidhandsonhim. Thencametheofficerstothechief priestsandPharisees; andtheysaidunto them, Whyhave ye notbroughthim? Theofficersanswered, Nevermanspakelikethisman. ThenansweredthemthePharisees, Areyealsodeceived? Have anyoftherulersorofthePhariseesbelievedonhim? Butthispeoplewho knowethnotthelawarecursed. Nicodemussaithuntothem, (he that cametoJesusby night, beingoneofthem,) Doth ourlawjudge any man, beforeit hearhim, andknowwhathe doeth? They answeredandsaidunto him, ArtthoualsoofGalilee? Search, andlook: forout ofGalileearisethnoprophet. Andevery manwentuntohis ownhouse.
