Contextual Overview

1 After these thynges, Iesus went about in Galilee: For he would not go about in Iurie, because that the Iewes sought to kyll hym. 2 The Iewes feaste of tabernacles was at hande. 3 His brethren therfore sayde vnto him: Get thee hence, and go into Iurie, that thy disciples also may see thy workes that thou doest. 4 For there is no man that doeth any thyng in secrete, and he hym selfe seketh to be knowen openly. Yf thou do suche thynges, shewe thy selfe to the worlde. 5 For his brethren beleued not in hym. 6 Then Iesus sayde vnto them, My tyme is not yet come: but your tyme is alway redy. 7 The worlde can not hate you, but me it hateth, because I testifie of it, that the workes therof are euyll. 8 Go ye vp vnto this feast: I wyll not go vp yet vnto this feast, for my tyme is not yet full come. 9 When he had saide these wordes vnto them, he abode styll in Galilee. 10 But assoone as his brethre were gone vp, then went he also vp vnto the feaste, not openly, but as it were priuilie.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

When he had said these words unto them,.... Had exhorted them to go up to the feast, and told them that he should not go yet, and the reason of it:

he abode [still] in Galilee; and went not up with his brethren, nor at all at present; showing hereby a firmness and resolution of mind, not using lightness of speech; and his words being not yea, and nay, but all of a piece, and by which he abode.
