John 7:25-31
1599 Geneva Bible
25 ¶ [a]Then said some of them of Jerusalem, Is not this he whom they go about to kill?
26 And behold, he speaketh openly, and they say nothing to him: do the rulers know indeed that this is indeed that Christ?
27 [b]Howbeit we know this man whence he is: but when that Christ cometh, no man shall know whence he is.
28 ¶ [c]Then cried Jesus in the Temple as he taught, saying, Ye both know me, and know whence I am: yet am I not come of myself, but he that sent me, is true, whom ye know not.
29 But I know him: for I am of him, and he hath sent me.
30 [d]Then they sought to take him, but no man laid hands on him, because his hour was not yet come.
31 Now many of the people believed on him, and said, When that Christ cometh, will he do more miracles than this man hath done?
