1After this, Jesus traveled throughout Galilee. He did not want to travel in Judea, because the Jews there were trying to kill Him.
2However, the Jewish Feast of Tabernacles was near.
3So Jesus’ brothers said to Him, “Leave here and go to Judea, so that Your disciples there may see the works You are doing.
4For no one who wants to be known publicly acts in secret. Since You are doing these things, show Yourself to the world.”
5For even His own brothers did not believe in Him.
