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
Hath not the scripture said, That Christ cometh of the seed of David, and out of the town of Bethlehem, where David was?Joh 7:43
