John 7:40

James Moffatt - New Testament

On hearing this some of the people said, "This really is the Prophet";

See the chapter Copy

and the crowds replied, "This is the prophet Jesus from Nazaret in Galilee!"

They asked him, "Then what are you? Elijah?" He said, "I am not." "Are you the Prophet?" "No," he answered.

Now when the people saw the Sign he had performed, they said, "This really is the Prophet who is to come into the world!"

"Sir," said the woman, "I see you are a prophet.

And the crowd disputed about him hotly; some said, "He is a good man," but others said, "No, he is misleading the people."
