He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water.Joh 7:39
(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.)Joh 7:40
Many of the people therefore, when they heard this saying, said, Of a truth this is the Prophet.Joh 7:41
Others said, This is the Christ. But some said, Shall Christ come out of Galilee?Joh 7:42

But this people who knoweth not the law are cursed.Joh 7:50
Nicodemus saith unto them, (he that came to Jesus by night, being one of them,)Joh 7:51
Doth our law judge any man, before it hear him, and know what he doeth?Joh 7:52
They answered and said unto him, Art thou also of Galilee? Search, and look: for out of Galilee ariseth no prophet.Joh 7:53
And every man went unto his own house.
