Bible Question: When did Jesus say the words recorded at John 10:1-21? Was it at the "Jewish Feast of Tabernacles" or at the "Feast of Dedication"? |
Bible Answer: John 7:2-3 Now the Jews' feast of tabernacles was at hand. His brethren therefore said unto him, Depart hence, and go into Judaea, that thy disciples also may see the works that thou doest. The feast of tabernaclee was two months before the feast of dedication (renewal) In John 10:22 It is now two months later, and Jesus is using the public activity to minister. THe feast of dedication which was instituted by Juda Maccabaeus between the testaments was in memorial of the purification of the temple after Antiochus Epiphanes had polluted it. I don't think Jesus being there suggest that it was ordained of God as something they were meant to observe. |
