26 Yet here he is, speaking for everyone to hear. And no one is arguing with him. Do you suppose the authorities know that he is the Messiah?
27 But how could that be? No one knows where the Messiah will come from, but we know where this man comes from.”
28 As Jesus was teaching in the temple, he shouted, “Do you really think you know me and where I came from? I didn't come on my own! The one who sent me is truthful, and you don't know him.
29 But I know the one who sent me, because I came from him.”
30 Some of the people wanted to arrest Jesus there and then. But no one even laid a hand on him, because his time had not yet come.
31 A lot of people in the crowd put their faith in him and said, “When the Messiah comes, he won't perform more miracles than this man has done!”
32 When the Pharisees heard the crowd arguing about Jesus, they got together with the chief priests and sent some temple police to arrest him.
