John 7:1 After these things Emmanuel walked in Galilee, for he would not walk in the ares where those calling themselves the Jews were, because they sought to kill him.

John 7:2 Now the Judean.feast of tabernacles was at hand.

John 7:3,4 His brethren therefore said unto him, Depart hence and go into Judaea, that your disciples also may see the works that you do. For there is no man that does any thing in secret and he himself seeks to be known openly. If you do these things, show yourself to the world.
Be an example to others.
John 7:5 For neither did his brethren believe in him.
Which means they probably thought he was nuts, as did others:.
John 7:6 Then Emmanuel said unto them, My time is not yet come but your time is always ready.
Your time for what?.John 4:23; Revelation 3:20.

It's talking about two different timelines, the one Emmanuel was on and the one the others were on.

John 7:7 The world cannot hate you, but me it hates because I testify of it that the works thereof are evil.
John 1:7 "The same came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all, through him might believe." Luke 6:35 "...for he is kind unto the unthankful and the evil." 1Corinthians 9:22 "...I am made all things to all that I might by all means save some."

John 15:19.

For Emmauel to testify of the works in the world that were evil, He had to know what evil was in that world back then. The world won't hate you for being you, because you're then appearing as they are. But, they'll hate you if you tell people where they are wrong and that the society they are in is corrupt. They like to hear the message that it's all ok:.Isaiah 30:1-18; Matthew 12:37; John 15:18,19; Proverbs 14:12

People need to come to see this themselves from the results in their lives (?) and from your prayers and meditation with them in mind. Emmanuel telling them of their wrongs (example, Matthew 23:13-33) was then one of the purposes God came to Earth to do in and through the one we call Emmanuel. Emmanuel caused an uproar in the religious circles of His day. It was His purpose then to show that the accepted way was corrupt. Now, in this day, it's to awaken.everyone.to higher consciousness availability. And in this, kindness is key.

With.Emmanuel's.approach back then and Paul's.(just below), Stephen's and John the Baptist's too, it got them killed, as it also did for those martyred in the Inquisition. Well, why then this scripture?.Luke 10:19.

People since the beginning of man on the Earth have disregarded God. They started being influenced by the dark side 'right out of the gate' as they say:.Genesis 4:7,8.

For Emmanuel, getting killed was why He came to Earth. For Paul and Stephen and.John the Baptist, well for.Paul.(2Corinthians 11:23-29; Paul's execution).and.Stephen.1, 2 and John the Baptist ...hmmm! And had they known this in 1Peter 3:15, they probably could have avoided their sad endings and had they been cognizant of this scripture at the time, they would have had more of a 'heads up' approach in life:.Proverbs 20:2 "The fear of a king is as the roaring of a lion. Whoso provokes him to anger sins against his own soul." Proverbs 25:8 "Go not forth hastily to strive, lest you know not what to do in the end thereof, when your neighbor has put you to shame." Proverbs 22:11 "He that loves pureness of heart, for the grace of his lips the king shall be his friend."

God doesn't want you to get killed for Him. It was Him who was killed for us! All things in our lives work for good if we remain in alignment with love.(Romans 8:28; 1Peter 3:13; Luke 10:19).and that's what God is:.1John 4:8-16. God opens minds when He's ready to.(*).

The other disciple named John (not John the baptist) apparently was the only one of the disciples to live as long as he did. He was banished to the Isle of Patmos, but unlike the others, lived a life free of martyrdom. Your mouth.(1Peter 3:10; James 3:6-9).can get you in so much trouble that you will not have any peace. The deaths or vanishing of many of the other 12 disciples are here:.Matthew 10:2. Consider how to be and what guidelines there are for your interactions.

John 7:8 Go you up unto this feast.(it was the time of the ancient Mosaic Law's Feast of Tabernacles). I go not up yet unto this feast for my time is not yet full come.

John 7:9 When he had said these words unto them, he abode still in Galilee.

John 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.

John 7:11-13 Then the Jews sought him at the feast and said, Where is he? And there was much murmuring among the people concerning him, for some said, He is a good man. Others said, Nay, but he deceives the people. Howbeit no man spake openly of him for fear of the Jews. 

John 7:14 Now about the midst of the feast Emmanuel went up into the temple and taught.

John 7:15 And the Judeans marveled, saying, How knows this man letters, having never learned?
How?.John 16:13.
John 7:16 Emmanuel answered them and said, My doctrine is not mine, but his that sent me.

John 7:17 If any man wants to be in alignment with the true God of all compassion, love, kindness, he is on the pathway of doing His will.(John 8:32).and will know whether or not what is said is of God or whether I speak of myself.(as others mostly do, speaking out of their own ego).
In other words you will know if another is speaking the truth when you are in alignment with God, because you'll recognize those of the same mind as yourself.
John 7:18 He that speaks of himself seeks his own glory, but he that seeks the glory of another that sent him, the same is true.(of a sincere heart, honest).and no unrighteousness is in him.

John 7:19,20 Did not Moses give you the law and yet none of you keep the law? Why go you about to kill me? The people answered and said, You have a devil.(you're paranoid). Who goes about to kill you?

John 7:21 Emmanuel answered and said unto them, I have done one work and you all marvel.

John 7:22 Moses therefore gave unto you circumcision; not because it is of Moses, but of the fathers and you on the sabbath day circumcise a man.

John 7:23 If a man on the sabbath day receive circumcision, that the law of Moses should not be broken, are you angry at me, because I have made a man every whit whole.(every little bit whole; completely whole).on the sabbath day?

John 7:24 Judge not according to the appearance but judge righteous judgment..(?)

John 7:25-27 Then said some of them of Jerusalem, Is not this he, whom they seek to kill? But lo, he speaks boldly and they say nothing unto him. Do the rulers know indeed that this is the very Christ? Howbeit we know this man whence he is, but when Christ comes, no man knows whence he is.
John 7:25-27 Then said some of them of Jerusalem, Is not this he, whom they seek to kill? But lo, he speaks boldly and they say nothing unto him. Do the rulers know indeed that this is the very Christ? Howbeit we know this man whence he is.(we know the place of his birth and residence), but when Christ comes.(and He came in the generation in which these things were said to:.Matthew 24:34), no man knows whence he is.

When Christ is in one's heart no man physically sees Him:.Matthew 24:23; 24:26.

John 7:28 Then cried Emmanuel in the temple as he taught, saying, You both know me and you know whence I am. And I am not come of myself, but he that sent me is true, whom you know not.

John 7:29 But I know him.(original for 'him' in both places in this verse is 'same as'; meaning, He was God, just as we also). For I am from.(original 'of').him and he has sent me.

John 7:30 Then they sought to take him, but no man laid hands on him because his hour was not yet come.

John 7:31,32 And many of the people believed on him and said, When Christ comes, will he do more miracles than these which this man has done? The Pharisees heard that the people murmured such things concerning him and the Pharisees and the chief priests sent officers to take him.

John 7:33,34 Then said Emmanuel unto them, Yet a little while am I with you, and then I go unto him that sent me. You shall seek me and shall not find me and where I am, thither you cannot come.

John 7:35 Then said the pharisaic Jews among themselves, Where will he go, that we shall not find him? Will he go unto the dispersed among the Gentiles.(who were these?).and teach the Gentiles?

John 7:36 What manner of saying is this that he said, You shall seek me and shall not find me and where I am, thither you cannot come?

John 7:37 In the last day, that great day of the feast.(*), Emmanuel stood and cried, saying, If any man thirst let him come unto me and drink.

John 7:38 He that believes on me.(believing is the important thing, not physical do's & don'ts some believe are needed for spiritual qualification:.Hebrews 6:1,2), as the scripture has said.(talking about the scriptures regarding Emmanuel in the Old Testament), out of his belly flows rivers of living water.

John 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 Emmanuel was not yet glorified.
John 7:39 But this spake he of the Spirit, which they that believe on him should receive.(that is, belief in the pathway that Emmanuel came to reveal which was the way into the holiest of the holiest and what is the holiest of the holiest? The Creator-Father is the intelligent energy from which all is and into which our minds can become aligned, so we too have all the properties of the Father:.Philippians 2:5,6), for the Holy Ghost was not yet given.(the Holy Spirit has been working since humanity was created, but it's a supply, given more of to those who want more of it), because that Emmanuel was not yet glorified..(?)

Doesn't say that it wasn't given because you weren't physically baptized.

John 7:40 Many of the people therefore, when they heard this saying, said, Of a truth this is the Prophet..
John 6:14.
John 7:41 Others said, This is the Christ.(the one anointed of Father-God). But some said, Shall Christ come out of Galilee?
Galilee was not regarded as a great place to have grown up in (map), but at least the regular people there were not snobbishly.ignorant as were many of the hardhearted so-called educated ones.

John 1:46; 7:52.

Barnes Notes:."shall Christ come out of Galiliee?".is speaking of the prophet who they expected to precede the coming of the Messiah, either Elijah or Jeremiah:.Matthew 16:14; Deuteronomy 18:15,18; John 6:14.

John 7:42 Has not the scripture said.(Micah 5:2,3), That Christ comes of the seed of David and out of the town of Bethlehem.(map), where David was?

John 7:43 So there was a division among the people because of him.

John 7:44-46 And some of them would have taken him, but no man laid hands on him. Then came the officers to the chief priests and Pharisees and they said unto them, Why have you not brought him? The officers answered, Never man spake like this man.

John 7:47,48 Then answered them the Pharisees, Are you also deceived? Have any of the rulers or of the Pharisees believed on him?
In effect saying, we're the elite, the smart ones and we don't believe on this guy, so you're just stupid and deceived.
John 7:49 But this people who knows not the law are cursed.
The Pharisees, who were trained in the Old Testament, had their religion based entirely on this and thus viewed the common people with contempt.
John 7:50,51.Nicodemus was he that came to Emmanuel by night, being one of them.(a Pharisee, but was open in mind to truth: verse 49 above).and said unto them, Does our law judge any man, before it hears him and know what he does?
This one of them could see how truly ignorant the others were and so he asked some questions of the others.
John 7:52 They answered and said unto him, Are you also of Galilee? Search and look, for out of Galilee arises no prophet.
An erroneous declaration by these Pharisees who claimed they knew the Bible (which comprised of only the Old Testament then) and had in actuality moved so far away from it and into their own doctrines, they became increasingly corrupt. Jonah and Nahum were Old Testament prophets and were of Galilee (a region of northern Israel (map), so these leaders of religion didn't even know the Bible they claimed their religion was based on, but they were good at disdaining others out of their own hardhearted arrogance:.John 7:41. Galilee was the northernmost part of Palestine and the ancient kingdom of Israel:.2Kings 14:25; Nahum 1:1.
John 7:53 And every man went unto his own house.
