John 7:25-27

International Standard Version

Is This the Messiah?

²⁵ Then some of the people of Jerusalem began saying, “This is the man they are trying to kill, isn’t it? ²⁶ And look, he is speaking in public, and they are not saying anything to him! Can it be that the authorities really know that this is the Messiah?^{[a] 27} We know where this man comes from. But when the Messiah^[b] comes, no one will know where he comes from.”
