John 7:45-52

⁴⁵The officers then came to the chief priests and Pharisees, and they said to them, “Why did you not bring Him?” ⁴⁶The officers answered, “Never has a man spoken in this way!” ⁴⁷The Pharisees then replied to them, “You have not been led astray too, have you? ⁴⁸Not one of the rulers or Pharisees has believed in Him, has he? ⁴⁹But this crowd that does not know the Law is accursed!” ⁵⁰Nicodemus (the one who came to Him before, being one of them) *said to them, ⁵¹“Our Law does not judge the person unless it first hears from him and knows what he is doing, does it?” ⁵²They answered and said to him, “You are not from Galilee as well, are you? Examine the Scriptures, and see that no prophet arises out of Galilee.”
