Bible verse
So there was division in the crowd because of Jesus.
John 7:43 · BSB
The verses around it, from John 7.
39 He was speaking about the Spirit, whom those who believed in Him were later to receive. For the Spirit had not yet been given, because Jesus had not yet been glorified.
40 On hearing these words, some of the people said, “This is truly the Prophet.”
41 Others declared, “This is the Christ.” But still others asked, “How can the Christ come from Galilee?
42 Doesn’t the Scripture say that the Christ will come from the line of David and from Bethlehem, the village where David lived?”
43 So there was division in the crowd because of Jesus.
44 Some of them wanted to seize Him, but no one laid a hand on Him.
45 Then the officers returned to the chief priests and Pharisees, who asked them, “Why didn’t you bring Him in?”
46 “Never has anyone spoken like this man!” the officers answered.
47 “Have you also been deceived?” replied the Pharisees.
