'People' in the Bible

He came to the things which were his and his people did not take him to their hearts.

On the third day two people were going to be married at Cana in Galilee. The mother of Jesus was there:

Now while he was in Jerusalem at the feast of the Passover, a great number of people came to have faith in his name, after seeing the signs which he did.

Now John was then giving baptism at Aenon near Salim, because there was much water there; and people came and were given baptism.

The woman of Samaria said to him, Why do you, a Jew, make a request for water to me, a woman of Samaria? She said this because Jews have nothing to do with the people of Samaria.

Then the woman put down her water-pot and went into the town, and said to the people,

Now a number of the people of that town had faith in him because of the woman's witness: He has been talking to me of everything I ever did.

So when the people came to him they made request to him to be among them for a time, and he was there two days.

In these doorways there were a great number of people with different diseases: some unable to see, some without the power of walking, some with wasted bodies.

Now he who had been made well had no knowledge who it was, Jesus having gone away because of the number of people who were in that place.

And a great number of people went after him because they saw the signs which he did on those who were ill.

Lifting up his eyes, Jesus saw a great number of people coming to where he was, and he said to Philip, Where may we get bread for all these people?

Jesus said, Let the people be seated. Now there was much grass in that place. And those seated on the grass were about five thousand.

Then Jesus took the cakes and having given praise to God, he gave them to the people who were seated, and the fishes in the same way, as much as they had need of.

So they took them up: twelve baskets full of broken bits of the five cakes which were over after the people had had enough.

And when the people saw the sign which he had done, they said, Truly, this is the prophet who is to come into the world.

Now when Jesus saw that the people were about to come and take him by force to make him a king, he went away again up the mountain by himself.

The day after, the people who were on the other side of the sea saw that only one small boat had been there, that Jesus had not gone in that boat with the disciples, but that the disciples had gone away by themselves.

So when the people saw that Jesus was not there, or his disciples, they got into those boats and went over to Capernaum looking for Jesus.

And there was much discussion about him among the mass of the people. Some said, He is a good man; but others said, No, he is giving people false ideas.

The people said in answer, You have an evil spirit: who has any desire to put you to death?

Then some of the people of Jerusalem said, Is not this the man whose death is desired?

And numbers of the people had belief in him, and they said, When the Christ comes will he do more signs than this man has done?

This discussion of the people came to the ears of the Pharisees; and the chief priests and the Pharisees sent servants to take him.

When these words came to their ears, some of the people said, This is certainly the prophet.

So there was a division among the people because of him.

But these people who have no knowledge of the law are cursed.

And early in the morning he came again into the Temple and all the people came to him and he was seated teaching them.

Then the neighbours and others who had seen him before in the street, with his hand out for money, said, Is not this the man who got money from people?

Others said, These are not the words of one who has an evil spirit. Is it possible for an evil spirit to make blind people see?

And a great number of people came to him, saying, John did no sign: but everything John said of this man was true.

You do not see that it is in your interest for one man to be put to death for the people, so that all the nation may not come to destruction.

Now the Passover of the Jews was near, and numbers of people went up from the country to Jerusalem to make themselves clean before the Passover.

The day after, a great number of people who were there for the feast, when they had the news that Jesus was coming to Jerusalem,

Now the people who were with him when his voice came to Lazarus in the place of the dead, and gave him life again, had been talking about it.

And that was the reason the people went out to him, because it had come to their ears that he had done this sign.

Now there were some Greeks among the people who had come up to give worship at the feast:

Hearing the sound, a number of people who were there said that it was thunder: others said, An angel was talking to him.

Then the people in answer said to him, The law says that the Christ will have life without end: how say you then that it is necessary for the Son of man to be lifted up? Who is this Son of man?

It was Caiaphas who had said to the Jews that it was in their interest for one man to be put to death for the people.
