[1, 2] [Arabic, p. 107] And at that time the feast of tabernacles of the Jews drew near. So the brethren of Jesus said unto him, Remove now hence, and go to Judæa, that [3] thy disciples may see the deeds that thou doest. For no man doeth a thing secretly [4] and wisheth to be apparent. If thou doest this, shew thyself to the world. For [5] up to this time not even the brethren of Jesus believed on him.[John 7:6] Jesus said unto them, My time till now has not arrived; but as for you, your time is alway ready. [6] It is not possible for the world to hate you; but me it hateth, for I bear witness [7] against it, that its deeds are evil. As for you, go ye up unto this feast: but I go [8] not up now to this ...

16. Next we come to the passage where His brethren—that is to say, His relations according to the flesh—urge Him to go up to the feast-day, in order that He may have an opportunity of making Himself known to the multitude. And here, again, how supremely elevated is the tone of His reply! “My time is not yet come, but your time is alway ready. The world cannot hate you; but me it hateth, because I testify of it that the works thereof are evil.”[John 7:6-7] So it is the case, then, that “your time is alway ready,” because ye desire that kind of day to which the prophet refers when he says, “But I have not laboured following Thee, O Lord; and the day of man I have not desired, Thou knowest:” that is to say, to soar to the light ...

... known openly. If Thou do these things, manifest Thyself to the world.” Then the Evangelist subjoins, “For neither did His brethren believe in Him.” If then they did not believe in Him, the words they threw out were of envy. “Jesus answered them, My time is not yet come; but your time is alway ready. The world cannot hate you; but Me it hateth, because I testify of it that the works thereof are evil. Go ye up to this feast day. I go not up to this feast day, for My time is not yet accomplished.”[John 7:6-8] Then follows the Evangelist; “When He had said these words, He Himself stayed in Galilee. But when His brethren were gone up, then went He also up to the feast day, not openly, but as it were in secret.” Thus far is the extent of the difficulty, all ...

... of all the Saints. (For whatever is written concerning our Saviour in His human nature, ought to be considered as applying to the whole race of mankind; because He took our body, and exhibited in Himself human infirmity.) Now of this cause John has written thus, ‘They sought to take Him: but no man laid hands on Him, because His hour was not yet come.’ And before it came, He Himself said to His Mother, ‘Mine hour is not yet come:’ and to them who were called His brethren, ‘My time is not yet come[John 7:6].’ And again, when His time was come, He said to the disciples, ‘Sleep on now, and take your rest: for behold, the hour is at hand, and the Son of man is betrayed into the hands of sinners.’
