his disciples murmured at this, said to them: Does this offend you?
(62)What then if ye behold the Son of man ascending up where he was

therefore says to them: My time is not yet come; but your time is
always ready. (7)The world can not hate you; but me it hates, because
I testify of it, that its works are evil. (8)Go ye up to the feast. I
go not up to this feast; because my time is not yet fully come.
(9)Having said these things to them, he remained in Galilee. (10)But
when his brothers were gone up to the feast, then he also went up, not

(11)The Jews therefore sought him at the feast, and said: Where is he?
(12)And there was much murmuring among the multitudes concerning him.
Some said: He is a good man; others said: Nay, but he misleads the
