lont@John:7:14 @ About the middle of the festival, Jesus went into the temple, and was teaching.
lont@John:7:15 @ And the Jews said with astonishment, Whence comes this man's learning, who was never taught?

lont@John:7:20 @ The people answered, You are possessed. Who seeks to kill you.

lont@John:7:24" />
lont@John:7:25 @ Then some inhabitants of Jerusalem, said, Is not this he whom they seek to kill?
lont@John:7:26 @ Lo! he speaks boldly, and they say nothing to him. Do the rulers, indeed, acknowledge that this is the Messiah?
lont@John:7:27 @ But we know whence this man is; whereas, when the Messiah shall come, no person will know whence he is.
lont@John:7:28 @ Jesus, who was then teaching in the temple, cried,

lont@John:7:30 @ Then they sought to apprehend him, but none laid hands on him; for his hour was not yet come.
lont@John:7:31 @ Many of the people, however, believed on him, and said, When the Messiah shall come, will he do more miracles than this man does?
lont@John:7:32 @ When the Pharisees heard that the people muttered such things concerning him, they and the chief priests dispatched officers to seize him.

lont@John:7:41 @ Some said, This is the Messiah. Others, does the Messiah come from Galilee?
lont@John:7:42 @ Does not the scripture say, that the Messiah will be of the posterity of David, and come from Bethlehem, the village whence David was?
