Introduction: <\/em>In the last part of John Chapter 6, we found that Jesus made one thing perfectly clear. Salvation is wholly of the Lord. This week, the seventh chapter deals with Jesus\u2019 next journey to Jerusalem for the Feast of Tabernacles. He was again was accosted by the Jews. The first part of the chapter deals largely with Jesus\u2019 answer.
\u00a0
The last half of John 7 completes Jesus\u2019 strained dialogue with Jews at Jerusalem. It was about 6 months until His last Passover and Calvary and therefore His final visit to Jerusalem before His passion. (The reference to passion refers to the sufferings of Jesus Christ from the Last Supper until his crucifixion.)

    John 7:1 After these things Jesus walked in Galilee: for he would not walk in Jewry, because the Jews sought to kill him.<\/em>
    John 7:2 Now the Jews’ feast of tabernacles was at hand.<\/em>
    John 7:3 His brethren therefore said unto him, Depart hence, and go into Judaea, that thy disciples also may see the works that thou doest.<\/em><\/span>
    \u00a0\u00a0
    In John\u2019s writings, he uses the phrase, \u201cafter these things,\u201d<\/em> on seven different occasions. There is a chronological gap of about six months between John 6 and 7.\u00a0 The synoptic record indicates that during this interval, Jesus had gone to Caesarea- Philippi. Jesus had a purpose in avoiding Galilee as well as Judaea because of the developing antagonism of the Jewish leadership in both areas against Him.
    \u00a0
    He knew the time for both His public presentation as King and His death were not yet at hand. He returned to Galilee with a purpose greater than merely avoiding the Jews at Jerusalem. The reference to Jewry <\/em>literally means Judea or the region of Jerusalem, the seat of worldwide Judaism. <\/p>\n

    He had not been there for approximately 18 months. He remembered from the events recorded in John 5:18 that even then they were ready to kill Him. In verse 2, the \u201cJew\u2019s feast of tabernacles\u201d also known as Succoth was one of the seven major feasts of Jehovah. It occurred in late September or early October and lasted a total of eight days. It was one of the three convocations in which all devout Jewish men were to attend each year.
    \u00a0
    It says that Jesus walked in Galilee and he no longer walked in Jewry because they sought to kill him. \u00a0The religious leaders hated Jesus because He came to fulfill the law, and they were not ready for any kind of change. During the last year of his ministry, Jesus confined His activities to Galilee. He followed the divine schedule that God had laid out for Him. <\/p>\n

    We are now entering the last six months of His life. There is a storm gathering about Jesus at this time, and it would ultimately break in all fury upon Him on the Cross. The Feast of Tabernacles was the first occurrence in these last six months of Jesus\u2019 ministry. We need to remember that Jesus kept all the Law. There were three feasts the every male Jew had to attend in Jerusalem. There was the Feast of the Passover, the Feast of the Tabernacles, and the Feast of Pentecost.
    \u00a0
    The feast of Tabernacles was a feast of great joy as they celebrated Israel\u2019s deliverance out of the land of Egypt. And all through the times of wandering, they lived in tents. You remember how that God guided the people with a cloud in the day and a pillar of fire by night. These were both pictures of our Lord Jesus Christ.\u00a0<\/p>\n
