Answers:
1. Jesus went to the Jewish Festival of Tabernacles.
It took place in Judea.
2. They are angry with Him for healing a man's whole body on the Sabbath.
3. In Mark, a crowd asks of Jesus, "Is not this the carpenter, the son of Mary and brother of James and Joses and Judas and Simon, and are his sisters here with us?" (6:3)
4. In John 7:10 -- "However, after his brothers had left for the festival, he went also, not publicly, but in secret. 11 Now at the festival the Jewish leaders were watching for Jesus and asking, "Where is he?""
5. In vs 7 ---> The world cannot hate you, but it hates me because I testify that its works are evil. 8 You go to the festival. I am not[b] going up to this festival, because my time has not yet fully come." After he had said this, he stayed in Galilee..... And in vs 18 -----> Whoever speaks on their own does so to gain personal glory, but he who seeks the glory of the one who sent him is a man of truth; there is nothing false about him.
6. The verses made impact for me to day are the verses 7, 10, and 18. Each verses recognizes Jesus is the one who is sent by God.
