The Jews then disputed among themselves, saying, “How can this man give us his flesh to eat?”
Some of the Pharisees said, “This man is not from God, for he does not keep the sabbath.” But others said, “How can a man who is a sinner do such signs?” There was a division among them.
But the people of the city were divided; some sided with the Jews, and some with the apostles.
For, in the first place, when you assemble as a church, I hear that there are divisions among you; and I partly believe it,
for you are still of the flesh. For while there is jealousy and strife among you, are you not of the flesh, and behaving like ordinary men?
