And so there was a division among the people because of Him. And now some of them wanted to take him, but no one laid hands on him. Then the officers came to the chief priests and the Pharisees who said to them, Why have you not brought him? The officers answered, No man ever spoke like this man. And the Pharisees answered them, Are you also deceived? Have any of the rulers of the Pharisees believed in him? But this crowd that does not know the law is accursed. Nicodemus, he who came to Jesus by night, being one of them, said to them, Does our law judge a man before it hears him and knows what he is doing? And they answered and said to him, Are you also from Galilee? Search and look, for no prophet has arisen out of Galilee. He who has ears to hear the Word of God, let them hear. Let us pray. Father, take now this Word that You have revealed by Your Spirit of truth and use it to pierce our souls, to cut between bone and marrow, between sinew and muscle, that we may be changed by its hearing.
