* Many of the people therefore , when they heard (5660 ) this saying , said (5707 ), Of a truth this is (5748 ) the Prophet . * Others said (5707 ), This is (5748 ) the Christ . But some said (5707 ), Shall Christ come (5736 ) out of Galilee ? * Hath not the scripture said (5627 ), That Christ cometh (5736 ) of the seed of David , and out of the town of Bethlehem , where David was (5713 )? * So there was (5633 ) a division among the people because of him . * And some of them would (5707 ) have taken (5658 ) him ; but no man laid (5627 ) hands on him . * Then came (5627 ) the officers to the chief priests and Pharisees ; and they said (5627 ) unto them , Why have ye not brought (5627 ) him ? * The officers answered (5662 ), Never man spake (5656 ) like this man . * Then answered (5662 ) them the Pharisees , Are ye also deceived (5769 )? * Have any of the rulers or of the Pharisees believed (5656 ) on him ? * But this people who knoweth (5723 ) not the law are (5748 ) cursed . * Nicodemus saith (5719 ) unto them , (he that came (5631 ) to Jesus by night , being (5752 ) one of them ,) * Doth our law judge (5719 ) any man , before it hear (5661 ) him , and know (5632 ) what he doeth (5719 )? * They answered (5662 ) and said (5627 ) unto him , Art (5748 ) thou also of Galilee ? Search (5657 ), and look : for out of Galilee ariseth (5769 ) no prophet . * And every man went (5675 ) unto his own house .
