John 7:43-49

⁴³So there was a division among the crowd because of Jesus.

⁴⁴Some of them wanted to seize Him, but no one laid hands on Him.

⁴⁵When the officers went back to the chief priests and Pharisees, they asked them, “Why didn’t you bring Him in?”

⁴⁶The officers answered, “No man ever spoke like this man!”

⁴⁷Then the Pharisees answered, “You haven’t been deceived, too, have you?

⁴⁸Have any of the rulers or Pharisees believed in Him?

⁴⁹But this accursed crowd doesn’t know the Law.”
