John 7:40-53 - Different Opinions About Jesus
40 Many of the people, when they heard this saying said, "Of a truth, this is a Prophet." 41 Others said, "This is Christ." Some said, "Shall Christ come out of Galilee? 42 Saith not the scripture that Christ shall come of the seed of David: and out of the town of Bethlehem where David was?" 43 So was there dissension among the people about him. 44 And some of them would have taken him: but no man laid hands on him.
45 Then came the ministers to the high priests and Pharisees. And they said unto them, "Why have ye not brought him?"
46 The servants answered, "Never man spake as this man doeth."
47 Then answered them the Pharisees, "Are ye also deceived? 48 Doth any of the rulers, or of the Pharisees, believe on him? 49 But the common people which know not the law are accursed."
50 Nicodemus said unto them - He that came to Jesus by night and was one of them - 51 "Doth our law judge any man, before it hear him and know what he hath done?"
52 They answered, and said unto him, "Art thou also of Galilee? Search and look, for out of Galilee ariseth no prophet."
53 And every man went unto his own house.
