John 7:5

Contemporary English Version 1995

Even Jesus' own brothers had not yet become his followers.

See the chapter Copy

When Jesus' family heard what he was doing, they thought he was crazy and went to get him under control.

After Jesus' brothers had gone to the festival, he went secretly, without telling anyone.

and Jesus' brothers said to him, “Why don't you go to Judea? Then your disciples can see what you are doing.

While Jesus was still speaking to the crowds, his mother and brothers came and stood outside because they wanted to talk with him.

No one does anything in secret, if they want others to know about them. So let the world know what you are doing!”
