1. The feast of the Passover. (John 2:13, 23; 6:4; 13:1; 18:28.) The feast of Tabernacles. (Chapter 7:2.) The feast of the Dedication. (Chapter 10:22.) A feast of the Jews. (Chapter 5:1.) The feast of the Dedication, mentioned only here, was a joyful festival, celebrated much in the same way as the feast of Tabernacles; it was in commemoration of the cleansing of the Temple and rebuilding of the altar (B.C. 164).

While He drove out the sheep and oxen, and overthrew the tables and money, He bade those who sold doves to take them away. —8. Chapter 3:9-21: "And this is the condemnation, that Light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than Light, because their deeds were evil. For every one that doeth (practiseth) evil hateth the Light, neither cometh to the Light, lest his deeds should be reproved (or discovered). But he that doeth truth cometh to the Light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that (or because) they are wrought in God.”
