Before we read John 12, first of all, by way of background, the term Jews here, we have a translation difficulty from the Greek word eudeoi, the Greek word eudeoi.

It means the religious establishment and those they controlled, those who were under the direct influence of the Sanhedrin in and around Jerusalem.

Even in modern Israel, Haifa and Tel Aviv would be more secular cities, but Jerusalem would be a city where you would have a lot of strong religious influence under the rabbinate.

Jews in this context means the religious establishment and those who they controlled who were Judeans.

However, at the pilgrim feasts like Passover, its population would quadruple, people coming up to Jerusalem.

No matter what direction you approach Jerusalem from, North, south, east, west, you always go up.

And this was, of course... commemorated and practiced in the Psalms of Ascent that were used ritually for the Pilgrim Feast like Passover.

They would sing, I rejoiced when they said to me, let us go up to the house of the Lord.
