John 7:6-8

Expanded Bible

⁶ [^LTherefore] Jesus said to his brothers, “·The right time for me [^LMy time; 2:4] has not yet come, but any time is right for you [^Cthey could go to Jerusalem anytime; but Jesus had a special destiny to fulfill there]. ⁷ The world cannot hate you [^Cbecause they are part of it], but it hates me, because I ·tell it [testify concerning; witness to] ·the evil things it does [^Lthat its works are evil]. ⁸ So you go [^Lup] to the feast. I will not go [^Lup] yet^[a] to this feast, because ·the right time for me [my time] has not yet ·come [fully come; ^Lbeen fulfilled].”
