John [Yah is gracious] 7:42-49

⁴²Has not the Scripture said that the Messiah Anointed one comes of the offspring of David Beloved, and from Bethlehem House of Bread, the village where David Beloved lived?”

⁴³So there arose a division in the multitude because of him.

⁴⁴Some of them would have arrested him, but no one laid hands on him.

⁴⁵The officers therefore came to the chief priests and Pharisees Separated, and they said to them, “Why didn’t you bring him?”

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

⁴⁷The Pharisees Separated therefore answered them, “You are not also led astray, are you?

⁴⁸Have any of the rulers believed in him, or of the Pharisees Separated?

⁴⁹True, these 'am-ha'aretz ·people of the land· do, but they know nothing about the Torah ·Teaching·, they are under a curse!”
