1. The Time is set down indefinitely: There was a feast of the Jews: whereupon some doubt is made what Feast it was. Some say it was the feast of Tabernacles, and some Pentecost. But to omit the answering of their reasons, which themselves confess to be but conjectural▪ it will appear plainly that this was the Passover. John 2.14. there is mention made of a Passover, after which Christ preached in Judea, and there •e passed over the Feast of Tabernacles and Pentecost. For Joh. 4, 55▪ Christ saith there were four months to harvest, which was about our Whitsuntide: therefore Christ spake that between December an• January, and the feast of Tabernacles was in September: and so Whitsuntide or Pentecost was past long before.
