Seeker Overlay ON

* The Pharisees heard that the people murmured such things concerning him ; and the Pharisees and the chief priests sent officers to take him . * Then said Jesus unto them , Yet a little while am I with you , and then I go unto him that sent me . * Ye shall seek me , and shall not find me : and where I am , thither ye cannot come . * Then said the Jews among themselves , Whither will he go , that we shall not find him ? will he go unto the dispersed among the Gentiles , and teach the Gentiles ? * What manner of saying is this that he said , Ye shall seek me , and shall not find me : and where I am , thither ye cannot come ? * In the last day , that great day of the feast , Jesus stood and cried , saying , If any man thirst , let him come unto me , and drink . * He that believeth on me , as the scripture hath said , out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water . * (But this spake he of the Spirit , which they that believe on him should receive : for the Holy Ghost was not yet given ; because that Jesus was not yet glorified .) * Many of the people therefore , when they heard this saying , said , Of a truth this is the Prophet . * Others said , This is the Christ . But some said , Shall Christ come out of Galilee ? * Hath not the scripture said , That Christ cometh of the seed of David , and out of the town of Bethlehem , where David was ? * So there was a division among the people because of him . * And some of them would have taken him ; but no man laid hands on him . * Then came the officers to the chief priests and Pharisees ; and they said unto them , Why have ye not brought him ? * The officers answered , Never man spake like this man . * Then answered them the Pharisees , Are ye also deceived ? * Have any of the rulers or of the Pharisees believed on him ? * But this people who knoweth not the law are cursed . * Nicodemus saith unto them , (he that came to Jesus by night , being one of them ,) * Doth our law judge any man , before it hear him , and know what he doeth ? * They answered and said unto him , Art thou also of Galilee ? Search , and look : for out of Galilee ariseth no prophet . * And every man went unto his own house .
