Passovers
“During this year, Jesus emerged from virtual obscurity into public
notice, gradually rising to a peak of popularity. The second year was
spent wholly in Galilee, where His most extensive work was
accomplished. Toward the end of this year, His popularity waned and
His enemies became more numerous and persistent. The third year,
The Year of Opposition, was when He fulfilled those ministries which
needed to be done before He was to die, such as training His disciples
for the uninterrupted proclamation of the gospel.”

“After these things Jesus came, and His disciples, into the land of Judea;
and there He was spending time with them, and baptizing. And John
also was baptizing in Aenon near Salim, because there was much water
there; and they were coming and were being baptized. For John had
not yet been thrown into prison” (Jn. 3:22-24).
