Commentary on John 7:6

Theological / Devotional

Time. Gr. kairos, “auspicious moment” (see on Mark 1:15).

Not yet come. Compare Jesus’ statement to His mother (eh. 2:4). His brethren may have been well meaning in what they proposed, but Jesus knew best. To Him the events of life were marked out by certain divinely ordered seasons, with an appropriate time for accomplishing each purpose (see on Luke 2:49; John 2:4).
