the month Abib; for in it thou camest out from Egypt: and none shall appear
before me empty:)[16] And the

[1
] After these things Jesus walked in
Galilee: for he would not walk in Jewry, because the Jews sought to kill him.
[37
] In
the last day, that great day of the
feast,
( the 8th day, a sabbath )
any man thirst
?
Yeshus / Jesus stood and cried,
saying, If any man thirst, let him
come unto me, and drink.
[38] He that believeth on me,
as the scripture hath said
, out of his belly shall flow rivers
of living water

Messiah is the Living waters:
Jer.2[
13] For my people have committed
two evils; they have forsaken me the
fountain of living waters, and hewed them out cisterns,
broken cisterns, that can hold no water.
Jer.17[
13] O LORD, the hope of Israel,
all that forsake thee shall be ashamed, and they that depart from me shall
be written in the earth, because they have forsaken
the LORD, the fountain of living waters
.
Rev.21[1
] And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first
heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea.
Isa.12[1
] And in that day thou shalt say, O LORD, I will praise
thee: though thou wast angry with me, thine anger is turned away, and thou
comfortedst me.
Rev.7 [
17] For
the Lamb which is in the midst of the throne shall feed them,
and shall lead them unto living
fountains of waters: and God shall wipe away all tears
from their eyes.
Isa.33[
21] But there
the glorious LORD will be unto us a place of broad rivers
and streams; wherein shall go no galley with oars,
neither shall gallant ship pass thereby.[22
] For the LORD is our judge, the
LORD is our lawgiver, the LORD is our king; he will save us
.

[39]
(But this spake he of the Spirit, which they
that believe on him should receive: for the Holy Ghost was not yet given; because
that Jesus was not yet glorified.)[
40
] Many of the people therefore, when they heard
this saying, said, Of a truth this is
the Prophet.
( Deut. 15 -18 )
Lev.23[39] Also in the
fifteenth day of the seventh month
, when ye have gathered in the fruit of the land, ye shall
keep a feast unto the LORD
seven days: on the
first day shall be a sabbath
, and on the
eighth day shall be a sabbath
.
Neh.8[
18] Also
day by day, from the first day unto the last day, he read in
the book of the law of God. And they
kept the feast seven days; and on the
eighth day
was a solemn assembly, according unto the manner.

Others said, This is the
Messiah / Christ
. But some said, Shall
Messiah / Christ
come out of Galilee?
[50

Nicodemus
saith unto them, ( he that came to Jesus by night,
being one of them,)
Pss.89
[36]
His seed shall
endure forever, and his throne as the sun before me.
Rev.22[1
] And he shewed me a pure river of water of life, clear
as crystal, proceeding out of the throne of God and of the Lamb.
Shalom
[2
] Now the
Jews' feast of tabernacles was at hand.
[3
] His brethren therefore said unto him, Depart
hence, and go into Judaea, that thy disciples also may see the works that thou
doest.
[4
] For there is no man that doeth any thing in
secret, and he himself seeketh to be known openly. If thou do these things,
shew thyself to the world.
[5
] For neither did his brethren believe in him.
[6
] Then Jesus said unto them, My time is not yet
come: but your time is alway ready.
[7
] The world cannot hate you; but me it hateth,
because I testify of it, that the works thereof are evil.
[8
] Go ye up unto this
feast
: I go not up yet unto this
feast
; for my time is not yet full come.
[9
] When he had said these words unto them, he abode
still in Galilee.
[10
] But when his brethren were gone up, then went
he also up unto the feast
, not openly, but as it were in secret.
[11
] Then the Jews sought him at the
feast
, and said, Where is he?
[12
] And there was much murmuring among the people
concerning him: for some said, He is a good man: others said, Nay; but he deceiveth
the people.
[13
] Howbeit no man spake openly of him for fear
of the Jews.
[14
] Now about the midst of the
feast
Jesus went up into the temple, and taught.
[15
] And the Jews marvelled, saying, How knoweth
this man letters, having never learned?
[16
] Jesus answered them, and said, My doctrine is
not mine, but his that sent me.
[17
] If any man will do his will, he shall know of
the doctrine, whether it be of God, or whether I speak of myself.
[18
] He that speaketh of himself seeketh his own
glory: but he that seeketh his glory that sent him, the same is true, and no
unrighteousness is in him.
[19
] Did not Moses give you the law, and yet none
of you keepeth the law? Why go ye about to kill me?
[20
] The people answered and said, Thou hast a devil:
who goeth about to kill thee?
[21
] Jesus answered and said unto them, I have done
one work, and ye all marvel.
[22
] Moses therefore gave unto you circumcision;
(not because it is of Moses, but of the fathers;) and ye on the sabbath day
circumcise a man.
[23
] If a man on the sabbath day receive circumcision,
that the law of Moses should not be broken; are ye angry at me, because I have
made a man every whit whole on the sabbath day?
[24
] Judge not according to the appearance, but judge
righteous judgment.
[25
] Then said some of them of Jerusalem, Is not
this he, whom they seek to kill?
[26
] But, lo, he speaketh boldly, and they say nothing
unto him. Do the rulers know indeed that this is the very
Messiah / Christ
?
[27
] Howbeit we know this man whence he is: but when
Messiah / Christ
cometh, no man knoweth whence he is.
[28
] Then cried Jesus in the temple as he taught,
saying, Ye both know me, and ye know whence I am: and I am not come of myself,
but he that sent me is true, whom ye know not.
[29
] But I know him: for I am from him, and he hath
sent me.
[30
] Then they sought to take him: but no man laid
hands on him, because his hour was not yet come.
[31
] And many of the people believed on him, and
said, When Messiah / Christ
cometh, will he do more miracles than
these which this man hath done?
[32
] The Pharisees heard that the people murmured
such things concerning him; and the Pharisees and the chief priests sent officers
to take him.
[33
] Then said Jesus unto them, Yet a little while
am I with you, and then I go unto him that sent me.
[34
] Ye shall seek me, and shall not find me: and
where I am, thither ye cannot come.
[35
] Then said the Jews among themselves, Whither
will he go, that we shall not find him? will he go unto the dispersed among
the Gentiles, and teach the Gentiles?
[36
] What manner of saying is this that he said,
Ye shall seek me, and shall not find me: and where I am, thither ye cannot
come?
[2] And I John saw the holy
city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride
adorned for her husband.
[3] And I heard a great voice
out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will
dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with
them, and be their God.[4] And
God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death,
neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former
things are passed away.[5] And
he that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And he said
unto me, Write: for these words are true and faithful.[
6] And he said unto me, It is done.
I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end.
I will give unto him that is athirst of the
fountain of the water of life freely.[
7] He that overcometh shall inherit
all things; and I will be his God, and he shall be my son.
[2] Behold, God is my salvation;
I will trust, and not be afraid: for the LORD JEHOVAH is my strength and my
song; he also is become my salvation.
[3] Therefore with joy shall ye
draw water out of the wells of salvation
.
[42
] Hath not the scripture said, That
Messiah / Christ
cometh of the seed of David, and out of the town
of Bethlehem, where David was?
[43
] So there was a division among the people because
of him.
[44
] And some of them would have taken him; but no
man laid hands on him.
[45
] Then came the officers to the chief priests
and Pharisees; and they said unto them, Why have ye not brought him?
[46
] The officers answered, Never man spake like
this man.
[47
] Then answered them the
Pharisees
, Are ye also deceived?
[48
] Have any of the rulers or of the Pharisees believed
on him?
[49
] But this people who knoweth not the law are
cursed.
[51
] Doth our law judge any man, before it hear him,
and know what he doeth?
[52
] They answered and said unto him, Art thou also
of Galilee? Search, and look: for out of Galilee ariseth no prophet.
[53
] And every man went unto his own house.
[2] In the midst of the street
of it, and on either side of the river, was there the tree of life, which bare
twelve manner of fruits, and yielded her fruit every month: and the leaves
of the tree were for the healing of the nations.
[3] And there shall be no more
curse: but the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it; and his servants
shall serve him:
[4] And they shall see his face;
and his name shall be in their foreheads.
[5] And there shall be no night
there; and they need no candle, neither light of the sun; for the Lord God
giveth them light: and they shall reign
for ever and ever.[
6] And he said unto me, These
sayings are faithful and true: and the Lord God of the holy prophets sent his
angel to shew unto his servants the things which must shortly be done.
[7] Behold, I come quickly: blessed is he that keepeth
the sayings of the prophecy of this book.
