John 7:25-31

Can This Be the Christ?

25 Some of the people of Jerusalem therefore said, “Is not this the man whom ^athey seek to kill? 26 And here he is, ^bspeaking openly, and they say nothing to him! Can it be that ^cthe authorities really know that this is the Christ? 27 But ^dwe know ^ewhere this man comes from, and when the Christ appears, ^fno one will know where he comes from.” 28 So Jesus proclaimed, ^gas he taught in the temple, ^h“You know me, and you know where I come from. But ⁱI have not come of my own accord. ^jHe who sent me is true, ^kand him you do not know. 29 ^lI know him, for I come ^mfrom him, and ⁿhe sent me.” 30 ^oSo they were seeking to arrest him, but ^pno one laid a hand on him, ^qbecause his hour had not yet come. 31 Yet ^rmany of the people believed in him. They said, ^s“When the Christ appears, will he do more signs than this man has done?”
