   1) John 7:1-9, Luke 9:51-56, Matthew 8:18-22, Luke 9:57-62, John 7:10-53,   
   John 8:1-20   
      
   John 7:1-9   
      
   John 7   
   The Unbelief of Jesus' Brothers   
      
   1 (Jn 4:3; 7:19) After these things Jesus walked in Galilee.   
   He would not walk in Judea, because the Jews were seeking to kill Him.   
   2 (Zec 14:16-19) Now the Jews' Feast of Tabernacles was at hand.   
   3 (Mt 12:46; Jn 7:5) His brothers therefore said to Him,   
   "Depart from here and go into Judea, that Your disciples also may see   
   the works that You do.   
   4 Jn 18:20For no one does anything in secret, while he himself seeks   
   to be known openly. If You do these things, reveal Yourself to the world."   
   5 (Mk 3:21) For even His brothers did not believe in Him.   
   6 (Jn 2:4; 7:8) Therefore Jesus told them, "My time has not yet come,   
   but your time is always fitting.   
   7 (Jn 3:19; 15:18-19) The world cannot hate you. But it hates Me,   
   because I testify concerning it, that its works are evil.   
   8 (Jn 7:6) You go up to this feast. I am not going up to this feast yet,   
   because My time has not yet fully come."   
   9 Having said these things to them, He remained in Galilee.   
      
   [1] After these things Jesus walked in Galilee: for he would not walk in   
   Jewry, because the Jews sought to kill him.   
   [2] Now the Jews' feast of tabernacles was at hand.   
   [3] His brethren therefore said unto him, Depart hence, and go into   
   Judaea, that thy disciples also may see the works that thou doest.   
   [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.   
   [5] For neither did his brethren believe in him.   
   [6] Then Jesus said unto them, My time is not yet come: but your time is   
   alway ready.   
   [7] The world cannot hate you; but me it hateth, because I testify of   
   it, that the works thereof are evil.   
   [8] Go ye up unto this feast: I go not up yet unto this feast; for my   
   time is not yet full come.   
   [9] When he had said these words unto them, he abode still in Galilee.   
      
   Luke 9:51-56   
      
   A Samaritan Village Refuses to Receive Jesus   
      
   51 (Mk 16:19; Lk 13:22) When the time came for Him to be received up,   
   He was steadfastly set to go to Jerusalem,   
   52 (Mt 10:5; Lk 10:1)and sent messengers ahead of Him.   
   They went and entered a village of the Samaritans   
   to make things ready for Him,   
   53 (Jn 4:9) but they did not receive Him, because He was set to go   
   to Jerusalem.   
   54 (2Ki 1:10-14) When His disciples James and John saw this,   
   they said, "Lord, do You want us to command fire to come down   
   from heaven and consume them, even as Elijah did?"   
   55 But He turned and rebuked them and said, "You do not know what kind   
   of spirit you are of.   
   56 For the Son of Man did not come to destroy men's lives but to save them."   
   And they went to another village.   
      
   [51] And it came to pass, when the time was come that he should be received   
   up, he stedfastly set his face to go to Jerusalem,   
   [52] And sent messengers before his face: and they went, and entered into a   
   village of the Samaritans, to make ready for him.   
   [53] And they did not receive him, because his face was as though he would   
   go to Jerusalem.   
   [54] And when his disciples James and John saw this, they said, Lord, wilt   
   thou that we command fire to come down from heaven, and consume them, even   
   as Elias did?   
   [55] But he turned, and rebuked them, and said, Ye know not what manner of   
   spirit ye are of.   
   [56] For the Son of man is not come to destroy men's lives, but to save   
   them. And they went to another village.   
      
   Matthew 8:18-22   
      
   The Would-Be Followers of Jesus   
      
   Lk 9:57-62   
      
   18 (Mk 4:35; Lk 8:22) Now when Jesus saw large crowds around Him,   
   He gave a command to depart to the other side.   
   19 Then a certain scribe came and said to Him,   
   "Teacher, I will follow You wherever You go."   
   20 Jesus replied, "The foxes have holes and the birds of the air have nests,   
   but the Son of Man has no place to lay His head."   
   21 Another of His other disciples said to Him,   
   "Lord, let me first go and bury my father."   
   22 (Mt 9:9; Jn 1:43) But Jesus said to him, "Follow Me, and let the dead bury   
   their dead."   
      
   [18] Now when Jesus saw great multitudes about him, he gave commandment to   
   depart unto the other side.   
   [19] And a certain scribe came, and said unto him, Master, I will follow   
   thee whithersoever thou goest.   
   [20] And Jesus saith unto him, The foxes have holes, and the birds of the   
   air have nests; but the Son of man hath not where to lay his head.   
   [21] And another of his disciples said unto him, Lord, suffer me first to go   
   and bury my father.   
   [22] But Jesus said unto him, Follow me; and let the dead bury their dead.   
      
   Luke 9:57-62   
      
   The Would-Be Followers of Jesus   
   Mt 8:19-22   
      
   57 (Lk 9:51) As they went along the way, a man said to Him,   
   "Lord, I will follow You wherever You go."   
   58 Jesus said to him, "Foxes have holes and birds of the air have nests.   
   But the Son of Man has no place to lay His head."   
   59 He said to another man, "Follow Me."   
   But he said, "Lord, let me first go and bury my father."   
   60 Jesus said to him, "Leave the dead to bury their own dead.   
   But you go and preach the kingdom of God."   
   61 (1Ki 19:20) Yet another said, "Lord, I will follow You,   
   but let me first go bid farewell to those at my house."   
   62 Jesus said to him, "No one who puts his hand to the plow   
   and looks back at things is fit for the kingdom of God."   
      
   [57] And it came to pass, that, as they went in the way, a certain man said   
   unto him, Lord, I will follow thee whithersoever thou goest.   
   [58] And Jesus said unto him, Foxes have holes, and birds of the air have   
   nests; but the Son of man hath not where to lay his head.   
   [59] And he said unto another, Follow me. But he said, Lord, suffer me first   
   to go and bury my father.   
   [60] Jesus said unto him, Let the dead bury their dead: but go thou and   
   preach the kingdom of God.   
   [61] And another also said, Lord, I will follow thee; but let me first go   
   bid them farewell, which are at home at my house.   
   [62] And Jesus said unto him, No man, having put his hand to the plough, and   
   looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God.   
      
   John 7:10-53   
      
   Jesus at the Feast of Tabernacles   
      
   10 However, after His brothers had gone up to the feast,   
   then He also went up, not publicly, but secretly.   
   11 (Jn 11:56) Then the Jews looked for Him at the feast,   
   and said, "Where is He?"   
   12 (Jn 7:40-43; 9:16) There was much complaining among the people   
   concerning Him. For some said, "He is a good Man."   
   Others said, “No, He deceives the people.”   
   13 (Jn 9:22; 19:38) Yet no one spoke openly of Him for fear of the Jews.   
   14 (Jn 7:28) Now about the middle of the feast Jesus went up into the temple   
   and began teaching.   
   15 (Mt 13:54; Lk 2:47) The Jews marveled, saying, "How has this Man become   
   educated, having never been taught?"   
   16 (Jn 3:11; 14:24) Jesus answered them, "My teaching is not Mine,   
   but His who sent Me.
