And John also was baptizing in Aenon near to Salim, because there was much water there: and they came, and were baptized.

Then came he to a city of Samaria, which is called Sychar, near to the parcel of ground that Jacob gave to his son Joseph.

And the passover, a feast of the Jews, was near.

So when they had rowed about five and twenty or thirty furlongs, they saw Jesus walking on the sea, and drawing near unto the ship: and they were afraid.

(However there came other boats from Tiberias near unto the place where they did eat bread, after the Lord had given thanks:)

Jesus therefore walked no more openly among the Jews; but went from there unto the country near to the wilderness, into a city called Ephraim, and there continued with his disciples.

And the Jews' passover was near at hand: and many went out of the country up to Jerusalem before the passover, to purify themselves.

This title then read many of the Jews: for the place where Jesus was crucified was near to the city: and it was written in Hebrew, and Greek, and Latin.

There laid they Jesus therefore because of the Jews' preparation day; for the sepulcher was near at hand.
