In context
37 On the last and greatest day of the feast, Jesus stood up and called out in a loud voice, “If anyone is thirsty, let him come to Me and drink.
38 Whoever believes in Me, as the Scripture has said: ‘Streams of living water will flow from within him.’”
39 He was speaking about the Spirit, whom those who believed in Him were later to receive. For the Spirit had not yet been given, because Jesus had not yet been glorified.
40 On hearing these words, some of the people said, “This is truly the Prophet.”
41 Others declared, “This is the Christ.” But still others asked, “How can the Christ come from Galilee?
42 Doesn’t the Scripture say that the Christ will come from the line of David and from Bethlehem, the village where David lived?”
43 So there was division in the crowd because of Jesus.
