<p>7:8 <i>You go up to the feast. I will not be going up to this feast, because my time is not yet fulfilled</i>- The AV adds &quot;I go not up <i>yet</i>&quot;. Perhaps He is using spiritual language in order to confuse those who did not wish to spiritually perceive Him. He was going to the feast of tabernacles; but He means that He is not 'going up' to it in the sense of making His self-offering there at that feast, because His hour has not yet come for that. He knew He must wait until Passover for that. He may simply have meant that He perceived that He could be killed on the way to the feast, and so He was not going to go up at that time, because that was not the intended time for His death.</p>
