John 7: 1 - 2, 10, 25 - 30
|
1 | After this Jesus went about in Galilee; he would not go about in Judea, because the Jews sought to kill him. |
2 | Now the Jews' feast of Tabernacles was at hand. |
10 | But after his brothers had gone up to the feast, then he also went up, not publicly but in private. |
25 | Some of the people of Jerusalem therefore said, "Is not this the man whom they seek to kill? |
26 | And here he is, speaking openly, and they say nothing to him! Can it be that the authorities really know that this is the Christ? |
27 | Yet we know where this man comes from; and when the Christ appears, no one will know where he comes from." |
28 | So Jesus proclaimed, as he taught in the temple, "You know me, and you know where I come from? But I have not come of my own accord; he who sent me is true, and him you do not know. |
29 | I know him, for I come from him, and he sent me." |
30 | So they sought to arrest him; but no one laid hands on him, because his hour had not yet come. |
