John 10:22
It was . . . the feast of dedication. Two months after the last
incidents, which occurred at and shortly after the Feast of
Tabernacles. The Feast of Dedication occurred in December, was not
divinely appointed, but was instituted by Judas Maccabaeus in 164 B.C.,
to commemorate the purification of the temple after it had been defiled
by the Syrians. Jesus took the occasion to teach the people that came
together. There is no proof that he observed it.
