Gospel text
Jn 7:40-53
Jn 7:40-53
Some in the crowd who heard these words of Jesus said, “This is truly the Prophet.” Others said, “This is the Christ.” But others said, “The Christ will not come from Galilee, will he? Does not Scripture say that the Christ will be of David’s family and come from Bethlehem, the village where David lived?” So a division occurred in the crowd because of him.
Gospel's Commentary
Today, the Scripture gives us again a "photo" reflecting the atmosphere shortly before Holy Week. More than 20 centuries have gone by and many remain the same. Peculiar!
—Thank God there are still some people with common sense:" Never has a man spoken like that man does", some said.
