John

7 1 After this Jesus traveled throughout Galilee. He stayed out of Judea because the Jewish leaders wanted to kill him.
2 Now the Jewish feast of Tabernacles was near.
3 So Jesus' brothers advised him, "Leave here and go to Judea so your disciples may see your miracles that you are performing.
4 For no one who seeks to make a reputation for himself does anything in secret. If you are doing these things, show yourself to the world."
5 (For not even his own brothers believed in him.)
6 So Jesus replied, "My time has not yet arrived, but you are ready at any opportunity!
7 The world cannot hate you, but it hates me, because I am testifying about it that its deeds are evil.
8 You go up to the feast yourselves. I am not going up to this feast because my time has not yet fully arrived."
9 When he had said this, he remained in Galilee.

10 But when his brothers had gone up to the feast, then Jesus himself also went up, not openly but in secret.
11 So the Jewish leaders were looking for him at the feast, asking, "Where is he?"
12 There was a lot of grumbling about him among the crowds. Some were saying, "He is a good man," but others, "He deceives the common people."
13 However, no one spoke openly about him for fear of the Jewish leaders.

14 When the feast was half over, Jesus went up to the temple courts and began to teach.
15 Then the Jewish leaders were astonished and said, "How does this man know so much when he has never had formal instruction?"
16 So Jesus replied, "My teaching is not from me, but from the one who sent me.
17 If anyone wants to do God's will, he will know about my teaching, whether it is from God or whether I speak from my own authority.
18 The person who speaks on his own authority desires to receive honor for himself; the one who desires the honor of the one who sent him is a man of integrity, and there is no unrighteousness in him.
19 Hasn't Moses given you the law? Yet not one of you keeps the law! Why do you want to kill me?"
20 The crowd answered, "You're possessed by a demon! Who is trying to kill you?"
21 Jesus replied, "I performed one miracle and you are all amazed.
22 However, because Moses gave you the practice of circumcision (not that it came from Moses, but from the forefathers), you circumcise a male child on the Sabbath.
23 But if a male child is circumcised on the Sabbath so that the law of Moses is not broken, why are you angry with me because I made a man completely well on the Sabbath?
24 Do not judge according to external appearance, but judge with proper judgment."
