7:1 After these things Jesus walked in Galilee: for he would not
walk in Jewry, because the Jews sought to kill him.
7:2 Now the Jews' feast of tabernacles was at hand.
7:3 His brethren therefore said unto him, Depart hence, and go
into Judaea, that thy disciples also may see the works that thou
doest.
7:4 For [there is] no man [that] doeth any thing in secret, and
he himself seeketh to be known openly. If thou do these things,
shew thyself to the world.
7:5 For neither did his brethren believe in him.
7:6 Then Jesus said unto them, My time is not yet come: but your
time is alway ready.
7:7 The world cannot hate you; but me it hateth, because I
testify of it, that the works thereof are evil.
7:8 Go ye up unto this feast: I go not up yet unto this feast:
for my time is not yet full come.
7:9 When he had said these words unto them, he abode [still] in
Galilee.
7:10 But when his brethren were gone up, then went he also up
unto the feast, not openly, but as it were in secret.
7:11 Then the Jews sought him at the feast, and said, Where is
he?
7:12 And there was much murmuring among the people concerning
him: for some said, He is a good man: others said, Nay; but he
deceiveth the people.
7:13 Howbeit no man spake openly of him for fear of the Jews.
7:14 Now about the midst of the feast Jesus went up into the
temple, and taught.
7:15 And the Jews marvelled, saying, How knoweth this man
letters, having never learned?
7:16 Jesus answered them, and said, My doctrine is not mine, but
his that sent me.
7:17 If any man will do his will, he shall know of the doctrine,
whether it be of God, or [whether] I speak of myself.
7:18 He that speaketh of himself seeketh his own glory: but he
that seeketh his glory that sent him, the same is true, and no
unrighteousness is in him.
7:19 Did not Moses give you the law, and [yet] none of you
keepeth the law? Why go ye about to kill me?
7:20 The people answered and said, Thou hast a devil: who goeth
about to kill thee?
7:21 Jesus answered and said unto them, I have done one work,
and ye all marvel.
7:22 Moses therefore gave unto you circumcision; (not because it
is of Moses, but of the fathers;) and ye on the sabbath day
circumcise a man.
7:23 If a man on the sabbath day receive circumcision, that the
law of Moses should not be broken; are ye angry at me, because I
have made a man every whit whole on the sabbath day?
7:24 Judge not according to the appearance, but judge righteous
judgment.
7:25 Then said some of them of Jerusalem, Is not this he, whom
they seek to kill?
7:26 But, lo, he speaketh boldly, and they say nothing unto him.
Do the rulers know indeed that this is the very Christ?
7:27 Howbeit we know this man whence he is: but when Christ
cometh, no man knoweth whence he is.
7:28 Then cried Jesus in the temple as he taught, saying, Ye
both know me, and ye know whence I am: and I am not come of
myself, but he that sent me is true, whom ye know not.
7:29 But I know him: for I am from him, and he hath sent me.
7:30 Then they sought to take him: but no man laid hands on him,
because his hour was not yet come.
7:31 And many of the people believed on him, and said, When
Christ cometh, will he do more miracles than these which this
[man] hath done?
7:32 The Pharisees heard that the people murmured such things
concerning him; and the Pharisees and the chief priests sent
officers to take him.
7:33 Then said Jesus unto them, Yet a little while am I with you,
and [then] I go unto him that sent me.
7:34 Ye shall seek me, and shall not find [me]: and where I am,
[thither] ye cannot come.
7:35 Then said the Jews among themselves, Whither will he go,
that we shall not find him? will he go unto the dispersed among
the Gentiles, and teach the Gentiles?
7:36 What [manner of] saying is this that he said, Ye shall seek
me, and shall not find [me]: and where I am, [thither] ye cannot
come?
7:37 In the last day, that great [day] of the feast, Jesus stood
and cried, saying, If any man thirst, let him come unto me, and
drink.
7:38 He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of
his belly shall flow rivers of living water.
7:39 (But this spake he of the Spirit, which they that believe
on him should receive: for the Holy Ghost was not yet [given];
because that Jesus was not yet glorified.)
7:40 Many of the people therefore, when they heard this saying,
said, Of a truth this is the Prophet.
7:41 Others said, This is the Christ. But some said, Shall
Christ come out of Galilee?
7:42 Hath not the scripture said, That Christ cometh of the seed
of David, and out of the town of Bethlehem, where David was?
7:43 So there was a division among the people because of him.
7:44 And some of them would have taken him; but no man laid
hands on him.
7:45 Then came the officers to the chief priests and Pharisees;
and they said unto them, Why have ye not brought him?
7:46 The officers answered, Never man spake like this man.
7:47 Then answered them the Pharisees, Are ye also deceived?
7:48 Have any of the rulers or of the Pharisees believed on him?
7:49 But this people who knoweth not the law are cursed.
7:50 Nicodemus saith unto them, (he that came to Jesus by night,
being one of them,)
7:51 Doth our law judge [any] man, before it hear him, and know
what he doeth?
7:52 They answered and said unto him, Art thou also of Galilee?
Search, and look: for out of Galilee ariseth no prophet.
7:53 And every man went unto his own house.
