From the second to the third Passover festival

  • The Messiah Jesus withdraws with his disciples

    PER167 describes the withdrawal of Jesus and his disciples to Bethsaida to rest after an intense evangelistic mission in Galilee, just before the Passover of April AD 32. The synoptic analysis of Matthew 14,13-14, Mark 6,31-32, Luke 9,10-11 and John 6,1-4 shows points of agreement and nuances: the desire for seclusion, being followed by the crowd, healings and teaching. This episode comes directly before the multiplication of the loaves.

    Mark 6.31-32 (King James Version) :
    And he said unto them, Come ye yourselves apart into a desert place, and rest a while: for there were many coming and going, and they had no leisure so much as to eat.And they departed into a desert place by ship privately.

    Pericope PER168 marks the third Passover feast of the ministry of the Messiah Jesus, dated Monday, April 12, AD 32, and mentioned only by John (Jn 6,4). Located in Galilee near Bethsaida, Jesus and his disciples do not seem to go up to Jerusalem, given the intensity of their activity. This mention serves as a chronological landmark in the synopsis, announcing the events to come up to the Feast of Tabernacles in October AD 32.

    John 7.14 (King James Version) :
    Now about the midst of the feast Jesus went up into the temple, and taught.

  • Jesus the Messiah Continues His Journey in Galilee

    Pericope 205 recounts the extended stay of Jesus the Messiah in Galilee, in the region of Capernaum, for about six months before his final departure for Jerusalem on October 3, AD 32. Only John mentions these journeys and reveals the intention of the religious authorities to put Jesus to death, while his disciples still struggle to understand what awaits him. This passage marks the transition to the Feast of Tabernacles in Jerusalem.

    John 7.2 (King James Version) :
    Now the Jews’ feast of tabernacles was at hand.
