The Jews were looking for him at the festival and saying, “Where is he?”
This is the testimony given by John when the Jews sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask him, “Who are you?”
They were looking for Jesus and were asking one another as they stood in the temple, “What do you think? Surely he will not come to the festival, will he?”
After this Jesus went about in Galilee. He did not wish to go about in Judea because the Jews were looking for an opportunity to kill him.
Yet no one would speak openly about him for fear of the Jews.
The Jews were astonished at it, saying, “How does this man have such learning, when he has never been taught?”
They said to him, “Where is he?” He said, “I do not know.”
