John 7:13 meaning and explanation
Yet no one would speak publicly about Him for fear of the Jews.
John 7:13, Berean Standard Bible
Explanation preview
The setting is the Feast of Tabernacles in Jerusalem, where Jesus has come quietly while crowds whisper about him. John explains that people were afraid to speak openly, and the phrase "the Jews" here most likely means the Judean religious authorities who could expel someone from the synagogue, not the whole Jewish people.
