And after these things Jesus walked in Galilee, for He would not walk in Judea, because the Jews were seeking to  ¹kill Him.

Now the Jews'  ¹Feast of Tabernacles was near.

His brothers therefore said to Him, Depart from here and go into Judea, so that Your disciples also may behold Your works which You are doing;

For no one does anything in secret and himself seeks to be known openly. If You do these things, manifest Yourself to the world.

For not even His brothers believed into Him.

Jesus therefore said to them, My  ¹time has not yet come, but your time is always ready.

The world cannot hate you, but it hates Me, because I testify concerning it, that its works are evil.

You go up to the feast; I am not going up to this feast, because My time has not yet been fulfilled.

And having said these things to them, He remained in Galilee.

But when His brothers had gone up to the feast, then He Himself also went up,  ¹not openly, but as it were in secret.

The Jews therefore sought Him at the feast and said, Where is He?

And there was much murmuring about Him among the crowds: some said, He is a good man; but others said, No; rather He leads the crowd astray.

Yet no one spoke openly about Him for fear of the JEWS.

But when it was now the middle of the feast, Jesus went up into the temple and began to teach.

The Jews therefore marveled and said, How does this man know letters,  ¹without ever having studied?

Jesus therefore answered them and said, My teaching is not Mine, but His who sent Me.

If anyone resolves to do His will, he will know concerning the teaching, whether it is of God or whether I speak from Myself.

He who speaks from himself seeks his own glory; but He who seeks the glory of Him who sent Him, this One is true, and unrighteousness is not in Him.

Has not Moses given you the law? Yet none of you keeps the law. Why do you seek to kill Me?

The crowd answered, You have a demon! Who is seeking to kill You?

Jesus answered and said to them, I did one work, and you all marvel.

For the same reason Moses gave you circumcision (not that it is from Moses, but from the fathers), and on the Sabbath you circumcise a man.

If a man receives circumcision on the Sabbath that the law of Moses may not be broken, are you angry with Me because I made an entire man well on the Sabbath?

Do not judge according to  ¹appearance, but judge the righteous judgment.

Then some of the people of Jerusalem said, Is not this the One whom they are seeking to kill?

And look, He is speaking openly, and they say nothing to Him. Have the rulers, perhaps, really recognized that this is the Christ?

But we know where this man is from; yet when the Christ comes, no one knows where He is from.

Jesus therefore cried out in the temple, teaching and saying, You both  ¹know Me and know where I am from; and I have not come of Myself, but He who sent Me is true, whom you do not  ¹know.

I know Him, because I am  ¹from Him, and He  ²sent Me.

They sought then to seize Him, yet no one laid a hand on Him, because His hour had not yet come.

But many out of the crowd believed into Him and said, Will the Christ, when He comes, do more signs than this man has done?

The Pharisees heard the crowd murmuring these things about Him, and the chief priests and the Pharisees sent attendants to arrest Him.

Jesus therefore said, I am still with you a little while, and then I am going to Him who sent Me.

You will seek Me and will not find Me; and where I am, you cannot come.

The Jews then said to one another, Where is this man about to go that we will not find Him? Is He about to go to the Jews in dispersion among the Greeks and teach the Greeks?

What is the word which He said, You will seek Me and will not find Me; and where I am, you cannot come?

After this matter Jeroboam did not turn from his evil way, but he again made priests for the high places from among the people; whoever desired it, he  ¹consecrated to be priests of the high places.

And this matter became a sin to the house of Jeroboam, so as even to cut it off and destroy it from the face of the earth.

At that time Abijah the son of Jeroboam became ill.

And Jeroboam said to his wife, Rise up now, and disguise yourself so that no one will recognize that you are the wife of Jeroboam, and go to Shiloh. Ahijah the prophet is there; it is he who spoke concerning me, that I should be king over this people.

And take in your hand ten loaves and some cakes and a cruse of honey, and go to him. He will tell you what will happen to the boy.

And Jeroboam's wife did so; that is, she rose up and went to Shiloh, and she came to the house of Ahijah. Now Ahijah could not see, for his eyes were fixed because of his age.

But Jehovah said to Ahijah, The wife of Jeroboam has now come to seek a word from you concerning her son, for he is ill. Thus and thus shall you speak to her. And it will be that when she comes in, she will pretend to be another woman.

So when Ahijah heard the sound of her footsteps as she entered through the door, he said, Come in, wife of Jeroboam. Why do you pretend to be another woman? For I have a hard message for you.

Go and tell Jeroboam, Thus says Jehovah the God of Israel, Because I exalted you from among the people and made you ruler over My people Israel,

And I tore away the kingdom from the house of David and gave it to you; and yet you have not been like My servant David, who kept My commandments and who followed Me with all his heart, doing only what was upright in My sight,

But you have done more evil than all who were before you and have gone and made for yourself other gods and idols, so as to provoke Me to anger; and you have cast Me behind your back —

Because of this then, I am now bringing evil upon the house of Jeroboam, and I will cut off from Jeroboam every male, bond and free, in Israel; and I will sweep up after the house of Jeroboam as a man might sweep up dung until it is all gone.

Him of Jeroboam's who dies in the city, the dogs will eat; and him who dies in the field, the birds of heaven will eat; for Jehovah has spoken it.

Rise up then, and go to your house: When your feet enter the city, the child will die.

And all Israel will mourn for him and bury him, for he alone of Jeroboam's will go into the grave, because in him some good thing toward Jehovah the God of Israel was found among the house of Jeroboam.

And Jehovah will raise up for Himself a king over Israel who will cut off the house of Jeroboam this day and even now.

And Jehovah will strike Israel, as a reed is shaken in the water; and He will uproot Israel out of this good land, which He gave to their fathers, and will scatter them beyond the  ¹River, because they made their Asherahs, provoking Jehovah to anger.

And He will give Israel up on account of the sins of Jeroboam, by which he sinned and by which he caused Israel to sin.

And Jeroboam's wife rose up and departed, and she came to Tirzah. As she came to the threshold of the house, the boy died.

And all Israel buried him and mourned for him according to the word of Jehovah, which He spoke through His servant Ahijah the prophet.

And the rest of the acts of Jeroboam, how he waged war and how he reigned, they are there written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Israel.

And the time that Jeroboam reigned was twenty-two years; and he slept with his fathers. And Nadab his son reigned in his place.

And Rehoboam the son of Solomon reigned in Judah. Rehoboam was forty-one years old when he began to reign, and he reigned seventeen years in Jerusalem, the city where Jehovah had chosen, out of all the tribes of Israel, to put His name. And his mother's name was Naamah the Ammonitess.

And Judah did what was evil in the sight of Jehovah and provoked Him to jealousy because of the sins which they committed, above all the sins which their fathers had committed.

And they also built for themselves high places and pillars and Asherahs on every high hill and under every flourishing tree,

And there were also male cult prostitutes in the land. They acted according to all the abominations of the nations that Jehovah had dispossessed before the children of Israel.

Then in the fifth year of King Rehoboam, Shishak the king of Egypt came up against Jerusalem.

And he took away the treasures of the house of Jehovah and the treasures of the king's house; indeed he took away all. And he took away all the shields of gold that Solomon had made.

And King Rehoboam made shields of bronze in their place and committed them into the hands of the captains of the guard, who kept the door of the king's house.

And whenever the king went into the house of Jehovah, the guards carried them and returned them to the guardroom.

And the rest of the acts of Rehoboam and all that he did, are they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah?

And there was war between Rehoboam and Jeroboam continually.

And Rehoboam slept with his fathers and was buried with his fathers in the city of David. And his mother's name was Naamah the Ammonitess.
