The second Passover festival in Jerusalem
This article analyses Jesus' second Passover pilgrimage to Jerusalem, mentioned in John 5:1. Although John does not explicitly name Passover, the chronological context suggests this event. Jesus takes this opportunity to preach and debate with the religious authorities. The interactions take place in the Temple court at a time when pilgrims flock to Jerusalem, giving Jesus a diverse audience for his teaching.
