John 7:2-6 – But when the Jewish Festival of Tabernacles was near, Jesus’ brothers said to
him, “Leave Galilee and go to Judea, so that your disciples there may see the
works you do. No one who wants to become a public figure acts in secret.
Since you are doing these things, show yourself to the world.” For even his own brothers
did not believe in him. Therefore Jesus told them, “My time is not yet here; for you any time will do.
Deuteronomy 16:15 – For seven days
celebrate the festival to the Lord your God at the place the Lord will choose. For the Lord your God will bless you in all your harvest and
in all the work of your hands, and your joy will be complete.
Zechariah 14:16 – Then the
survivors from all the nations that have
attacked Jerusalem will go up year after year to worship the King, the Lord Almighty, and to celebrate the
Festival of Tabernacles.
Application:

- · Jesus moved in accordance with the will of God.
