They sought therefore to take him:  and no man laid his hand on him, because his hour was not yet come.  But of the multitude many believed on him; and they said, “When the Christ shall come, will he do more signs than those which this man hath done?”

The Pharisees heard the multitude murmuring these things concerning him; and the chief priests and the Pharisees sent officers to take him.

Jesus therefore said, “Yet a little while am I with you, and I go unto him that sent me.  Ye shall seek me, and shall not find me:  and where I am, ye can not come.”

The Jews therefore said among themselves, “Whither will this man go that we shall not find him? will he go unto the Dispersion among the Greeks, and teach the Greeks?  What is this word that he said, ’Ye shall seek me, and shall not find me; and where I am, ye cannot come’?”

Now on the last day, the great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried, saying, “If any man thirst, let him come unto me and drink.  He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, from within him shall flow rivers of living water.”

But this spake he of the Spirit, which they that believed on him were to receive:  for the Spirit was not yet given; because Jesus was not yet glorified.

Some of the multitude therefore, when they heard these words, said, “This is of a truth the prophet.”  Others said, “This is the Christ.”  But some said, “What, doth the Christ come out of Galilee?  Hath not the scripture said that the Christ cometh of the seed of David, and from Bethlehem, the village where David was?”

So there arose a division in the multitude because of him.  And some of them would have taken him; but no man laid hands on him.

The officers therefore came to the chief priests and Pharisees; and they said unto them, “Why did ye not bring him?”

The officers answered, “Never man so spake.”

The Pharisees therefore answered them, “Are ye also led astray?  Hath any of the rulers believed on him, or of the Pharisees?  But this multitude that knoweth not the law are accursed.”

Nicodemus saith unto them (he that came to him before, being one of them), “Doth our law judge a man, except it first hear from himself and know what he doeth?”

They answered and said unto him, “Art thou also of Galilee?  Search, and see that out of Galilee ariseth no prophet.”

JESUS AND THE ACCUSED WOMAN.

And they went every man unto his own house:  but Jesus went unto the mount of Olives.

And early in the morning he came again into the temple, and all the people came unto him; and he sat down, and taught them.  And the scribes and the Pharisees bring a woman taken in adultery; and having set her in the midst, they say unto him, “Teacher, this woman hath been taken in adultery, in the very act.  Now in the law Moses commanded us to stone such:  what then sayest thou of her?” And this they said, trying him, that they might have whereof to accuse him.
