The feast observed in Jerusalem · dominant
In John 10:22, the nominative plural neuter form names the feast that was taking place in Jerusalem; the APB renders the clause, "the Feast of Dedication was in Jerusalem; it was winter."
In the Anselm Project Bible: In John 10:22, the APB presents the term within the phrase "the Feast of Dedication." This identifies the verse's presentation rather than a precise lexical mapping.
