어린이를 위한 설명

Imagine you and your friends are planning a trip to an amusement park. But instead of going right away, one friend says they'll wait a bit longer before joining you there. That's kind of what Jesus did here—he decided not to go to Jerusalem with his brothers just yet.

역사적 배경

This verse is from the Gospel of John, written around AD 90-100. The book was likely aimed at a mixed audience including Jews and Gentiles who were interested in or had converted to Christianity. At this time, Jesus' ministry was taking place against the backdrop of Roman rule over Judea.
