John 7:25-30

25Some therefore of those of Jerusalem said, Is not this he whom they seek to kill?

26and behold, he speaks openly, and they say nothing to him. Have the rulers then indeed recognised that this is the Christ?

27But [as to] this [man] we know whence he is. Now [as to] the Christ, when he comes, no one knows whence he is.

28Jesus therefore cried out in the temple, teaching and saying, Ye both know me and ye know whence I am; and I am not come of myself, but he that sent me is true, whom ye do not know.

29I know him, because I am from him, and he has sent me.

30They sought therefore to take him; and no one laid his hand upon him, because his hour had not yet come.
