John 7:10

Then went he up also to the feast, not openly.

After the departure of the multitude of Galileans he followed after, no doubt accompanied by his apostles, though we have no account of the journey, unless it be referred to in Luke 9:51-52. The journey was made quietly, not clandestinely, but unostentatiously and in such. way as not to attract observation. As Meyer says: "Not in company of. caravan of pilgrims, or in any other way of outward observation, but so that the journey to the feast is represented as made in secrecy, and consequently quite differently from his last entry at the feast at the Passover." He seems not to have reached Jerusalem until after the feast was in progress.
