Last Great Day of the Feast of Tabernacles
37 On the last and greatest yom of the moed, YAH-USHA stood and cried, saying, If any man thirsts, let him come to Me and drink. [5179]
38 He that believes on Me, as the Keetvay HaKadosh [5180] have said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of mayim chayim.
39 And this He spoke of the Ruach, which they that believe on Him would receive: for the Ruach Hakodesh was not yet given; because YAH-USHA was not yet esteemed.
40 Many of the people therefore, when they heard this saying, said, Truly this is Ha Navi of Sefer Devarim.
41 Others said, This is The Moshiach. But some said, Shall The Moshiach come out of Galil?
42 Have not the Keetvay HaKadosh said, that The Moshiach comes from the zera of Dawid and out of the town of Beth-Lechem, where Dawid was from?
43 So there was a division among the people because of Him.
44 And some of them would have taken Him; but no man laid hands on Him.
45 Then came the officers to the chief Kohanim and Prushim; and they said to them, Why have you not brought Him to us?
46 The officers answered, Never has any man spoken like this man.
47 Then answered the Prushim, Are you also deceived?
48 Have any of the rulers, or any of the Prushim believed on Him?
49 But these people [5181] who know not the Torah are cursed.
50 Nakdimon said to them – he that came to YAH-USHA by night, being one of them.
51 Does our Torah judge any man, [5182] before it hears him and knows what he does?
52 They answered and said to him, Are you also from Galil? Search and look: for out of Galil, Ha Navi will not come forth. [5183]
53 And every man went to his own bayit. [5184]
The Besorah According To
John (Yochanan) 7:37-52 RSTNE 7th Edition
Study Notes:
[5179] This invitation is given twice in John. Once to Efrayim and once to Judah, for both houses to hear and return. [5180] Isaiah 12:3, Jeremiah 17:13. [5181] Am HaAretz, or the common unlearned people. [5182] Yisraelite. [5183] Aramaic Peshitta refers to The Prophet, or The Messiah, who it was believed could not come from Galilee. Of course, Messiah was actually from Bethlehem of Judea and only lived in Galilee, thus confusing their ability to grasp the situation. [5184] These verses, from chapter 7:53 to chapter 8:11, are not found in either the Peshitta, or the four oldest Greek manuscripts.Glossary of Hebrew Words:
