1 After this, Jesus spent his time going from place to place in Galilee. He did not want to do so in Judea because the Jews were out to kill him.2 But as it was almost time for the Jewish festival of the Tabernacles,3 his brothers told him, “You ought to leave and go to Judea so your followers will be able to see what miracles you can do.4 No one who wants to be famous keeps what they do hidden. If you can do such miracles, then show yourself to the world!”5 For even his own brothers really didn't believe in him.

6 Jesus told them, “This is not my time to go, not yet; but you can go whenever you want, for any time's the right time for you.7 The world has no reason to hate you, but it does hate me, because I make it clear that its ways are evil.8 You go on to the festival. I'm not going to this festival because this is not the right time for me, not yet.”9 After saying this he stayed behind in Galilee.
