No one knows who He is
Verse 1
And after these things The Son of Light Yahuwshua was walking in Galilee of the children of darkness and the will of the Father within Him told Him not to go to Judea with His brothers, because the Jews were seeking to kill Him.
Verse 2
The time for the Jewish festival of Booths was nearing.
Verse 3
His brothers said to Him, “Let’s leave this place and go into Judea so that all our brothers can see the signs and miracles that You are doing, and they too can come under the authority of YAHUWAH and be MalakiYA as well.”
Verse 4
Because who does miracles in secret but then only speaks in public. If You are seeking fame do it correctly and show Yourself to the world and show them everything You can do.
Verse 5
For even his brothers didn’t have confidence in what He said about YAHUWAH. (This is because just like now back then the Name of the Father had been banned by the Sanhedrin for about 150 years and some knew it, and some didn’t, and they worshiped Elohim and El who is Baal and there was just as much confusion then as there is now thanks to the chief priests and the Pharisees. Since they had added the Talmud which added things to the LAW of YAHUWAH.) (However, by the time of the Talmud, it was the custom to use substitute Names for God.) (Some rabbis asserted that a person who pronounces YHVH according to its letters (instead of using a substitute) has no place in the World to Come and should be put to death.)
Verse 6
The Son of Light Yahuwshua said to them, “The time of My Father has not yet come, but the children of darkness are always impatient, and the son of darkness is always ready to do and act whenever and however he wants.” But a TRUE Son only acts and obeys what the Father says and when HE says.
Verse 7
“The father of darkness has no power to hate you however he hates the Father of the Children of Light because I come with the Father to show everyone how it is that all the dark one’s deeds are evil, wicked, and only cause pain.”
Verse 8
“You go ahead to the feast. I am not going to go to this feast, for the Father’s timing has not yet come.”
Verse 9
After telling them these things He stayed in Galilee of the children of darkness.
Verse 10
His brothers went up to the feast and after they left, He also left to go in secret so that no one would know.
Verse 11
The Jews were looking for Him and were asking about Him and asking others, “Where is He?”
Verse 12
And all the crowds in the city were discussing Him. Some would say, “He is divinely good,” others however would say, “No He isn’t, and He is deceiving the people!”
Verse 13
No one would publicly say anything about Him because the Jews had successfully scared and censored everyone with threats.
Verse 14
And as the feast was halfway over, Yahuwshua went into the Temple and started to teach.
Verse 15
And the Jews were completely astonished saying, “How is it possible that He knows the Scriptures better than us, when He has never studied them?”
Verse 16
And the Son of Light Yahuwshua answered them saying, “My teaching is not from Myself but from the ONE who sent Me. You are being taught by the Father, Himself.”
Verse 17
If anyone desires to do the will of the Father, he will recognize where the teaching comes from if its from the Father of the Children of Light or if I speak human understanding.
Verse 18
The one who speaks of what he knows desires to glorify himself but the One who desires the value of the ONE who sent Him, He speaks what is TRUE, and there is no injustice in Him.
Verse 19
Didn’t Mushah (Moses) give you the LAW of YAHUWAH and none of you keep, guard, or revere it? This is why you seek to kill Me.
Verse 20
“You are possessed by a demon!” The crowd answered Him, “That is why we desire to kill You.”
Verse 21
Yahuwshua answered them, “I have done one miracle and you all marvel because of it.” (One in Judea but many outside of Judea however the Jews had only seen one.)
Verse 22
Mushah (Moses) successfully gave you the Father of Light’s circumcision and it is not from the father of darkness or your fathers but from Mushah’s obedience to the Father of Heaven. And you even violate your sabbath to circumcise.
Verse 23
If you will circumcise a baby on your sabbath so that you will not break the LAW that Mushah (Moses) gave you, why are you angry with Me because I restored a man to full health on your sabbath?
Verse 24
Do not judge by the new law (Talmud) you have invented but judge only according to the perfect LAW of YAHUWAH. (Back then it was the new law now it's the new covenant they have invented. The evil one always inventing something new for us to follow instead of just following Him.)
Verse 25
Some of the citizens of Jerusalem were saying, “Isn’t this the man that the Jews want to murder?”
Verse 26
“And look, He is here speaking publicly before all of us, and they do nothing to Him, nor do they have anything to say to contradict Him. Truly our rulers have recognized that He is the prophesied Messiah.”
Verse 27
However, we know where this man comes from. And whenever the Messiah comes no one will be able to give personal witness that he knows from where He has come.
Verse 28
Therefore, The Son of Light Yahuwshua shouted in the Temple saying to confirm to them that He wasn’t the Messiah, “You know Me and from where I come, and I did not send Myself, but I was made by the Spirit of Truth who has sent Me who you do not know.”
Verse 29
“However, I know HIM because I come from Him and He sent Me.”
Verse 30
They all demanded that He be arrested but no one rushed Him to put a hand on Him, because the hour for that to happen to Him had not yet come.
Verse 31
But many from the crowd trusted in YAHUWAH and said, “When the Messiah comes, He won’t do more signs and miracles than this Prophet has done will He?”
Verse 32
The Pharisees heard everything that the crowd was saying and whispering about Him, so the chief priests and the Pharisees sent the religious police to arrest Him.
Verse 33
The Son of Light Yahuwshua said this again to confirm that He wasn’t the Messiah, “I am here for only a little while and then I will return to the ONE who sent Me.” For the Messiah will stay with the people and rule them and will not leave.
Verse 34
You will look for Me and will not find Me and where I am going you do not yet have the power to come with Me.
Verse 35
Therefore, the Jews started to say, “Where is He about to go that we will not find Him?” I hope He isn’t going to the Diaspora among the Romans, to teach the Romans?
Verse 36
What is this Man saying: “You will seek Me and will not find Me, and you do not yet have the power to come with Me?”
Verse 37
On the last day of the great feast the Son of Light Yahuwshua stood up and said, “If anyone is thirsty come to Me and I will give you to drink from the Spirit of Truth of YAHUWAH.”
Verse 38
The one who completely trusts in the Father as Scripture has said, “Living waters will flow from the rivers that will be in his belly.”
Verse 39
But He said this about the Spirit of Truth so that those who have had enough suffering would understand and be ready to receive the Blessings of YAHUWAH instead of His curse that comes from disobeying His LAW. Therefore, if you decide to completely trust Him, you will not yet receive His Spirit because the Father does not yet have evidence that Yahuwshua is worthy to receive the infinite worth of the Father.
Verse 40
Therefore, some in the crowd who heard His words said, “This is truly the Prophet that Mushah (Moses) said would come.”
Verse 41
However, others said, “This is the Messiah.” But others said, “The Prophet isn’t supposed to come from Galilee?”
Verse 42
And don’t the Scriptures say that the Prophet will have the seed of David and come from the village that Duwiyd (David) came from, Bethlehem?
Verse 43
Because of Him the crowd was completely divided. Some thought He was the Messiah and others the Prophet that Mushah (Moses) had told them was coming and that when He came, they must listen to Him.
Verse 44
Some of them wished to arrest Him however no one tried to arrest Him.
Verse 45
Then the religious police went back to the chief priests and the Pharisees and they said to them, “Why didn’t you succeed in arresting and bringing Him to us?”
Verse 46
The religious police answered, “No man has ever spoken like the Son of Light has, ‘Who is this Man?’”
Verse 47
Therefore, the Pharisees said to them, “Do not tell us that He has led you from our ways as well?”
Verse 48
None of the rulers or Pharisees have confidence in Him.
Verse 49
However, the crowd who are children of darkness do not know the LAW and so speak blasphemy.
Verse 50
Nicodemus said to them, the one who had previously gone to Him, and who used to be one of them said to them,
Verse 51
“Our law doesn’t judge a man before it has heard him and properly charged him, does it?
Verse 52
They all answered to him, “Do not tell us that you are now from Galilee?” “Go research in the Scriptures, and you will find that not one Prophet will come from Galilee.”
Verse 53
And so, they finished for that day and each one went to his own home.
