John 7:30-32

Living Bible

³⁰ Then the Jewish leaders sought to arrest him; but no hand was laid on him, for God’s time had not yet come.

³¹ Many among the crowds at the Temple believed on him. “After all,” they said, “what miracles do you expect the Messiah to do that this man hasn’t done?”

³² When the Pharisees heard that the crowds were in this mood, they and the chief priests sent officers to arrest Jesus.
