37. Now on the last day of the Chag, Hoshana Rabbah, Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach cried out, saying, If anyone thirsts let him come to me and drink. [Lv 23:36; Isa 55:1; 12:3; 49:10]
38. The one with emunah in me, as the Kitvei Hakodesh said, 'Out of the midst of him, rivers of MAYIM CHAYYIM [Zech 14:8] will flow.' [Prov 18:4; Isa 44:3; 58:11; 43:19f, Ezek 47:1-12; Joel 4:18; Song 4:15].
39. But this he said about the Ruach Hakodesh which the ones having emunah (faith) in him were about to receive, for the Ruach Hakodesh had not yet been given, because he had not yet received kavod. [YOEL 2:28 (3:1)]
40. Some of the multitude, therefore, having heard these dvarim were saying, This man is beemes the Navi.
41. Others were saying, This man is the Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach. But some were saying, Surely the Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach comes not from the Galil, does he?
42. Has not the Kitvei Hakodesh said that the Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach is from the zera Dovid and from Beit-Lechem, the shtetl where Dovid lived? [2Sm 7:12; Psa 89:3-4; Mic 5:1(2); Jer 23:5]
43. A machloket (controversy), therefore, occurred among the multitude because of Rebbe, Melech HaMoshiach.
44. And some of them were wanting to arrest him, but no one laid his hands on him.
45. Then the avadim of the Rashei Hakohanim and Perushim came and the Rashei Hakohanim and Perushim said to them, Why did you not bring him?
46. In reply, the avadim said, Never Ish spoke like this Ish.
