34. You will look for Me and you will not find Me. And where I am, you cannot come.”

35. The Jews said among themselves, “Where does He intend to go that we shall not find Him? Does He intend to go to the Dispersion among the Greeks and teach the Greeks?

36. What kind of saying is this which He said, ‘You will look for Me and you will not find Me. And where I am, you cannot come’? ”

37. On the last and greatest day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried out, “If anyone is thirsty, let him come to Me and drink.

38. He who believes in Me, as the Scripture has said, out of his heart shall flow rivers of living water.”

39. By this He spoke of the Spirit, whom those who believe in Him would receive. For the Holy Spirit was not yet given, because Jesus was not yet glorified.

40. Therefore when they heard these words, many of the people said, “Truly, this is the Prophet.”

41. Others said, “This is the Christ.”But some said, “Will the Christ come out of Galilee?

42. Has the Scripture not said that the Christ comes from the seed of David, out of the town of Bethlehem where David was?”

43. So there was a division among the people because of Him.
