John 7:40-49

1. 40 Many of the people therefore, when they heard this saying, said, Of a truth this is the Prophet.

2. 41 Others said, This is the Christ. But some said, Shall Christ come out of Galilee?

3. 42 Hath not the scripture said, That Christ cometh of the seed of David, and out of the town of Bethlehem, where David was?

4. 43 So there was a division among the people because of him.

5. 44 And some of them would have taken him; but no man laid hands on him.

6. 45 Then came the officers to the chief priests and Pharisees; and they said unto them, Why have ye not brought him?

7. 46 The officers answered, Never man spake like this man.

8. 47 Then answered them the Pharisees, Are ye also deceived?

9. 48 Have any of the rulers or of the Pharisees believed on him?

10. 49 But this people who knoweth not the law are cursed.
