... say that of him; and the chief priests sent [50] officers to seize him. And Jesus said unto them, I am with you but a short time [51] yet, and I go to him that sent me. And ye shall seek me, and shall not find me: [52] and where I shall be, ye shall not be able to come. The Jews said within themselves, Whither hath this man determined to go that we shall not be able to find him? can it be that he is determined to go to the regions of the nations, and teach [53] the heathen?[John 7:36] What is this word that he said, Ye shall seek me, and shall not find me: and where I am, ye cannot come?

Because ye do not “search the Scriptures, which testify of me.”

... know to have been His voice on the Cross out of a certain Psalm: “O God, My God, why hast Thou forsaken Me?” But how great was that voice, or of how long duration, that in it His jaws should have become hoarse? Long while He cried, “Woe unto you, Scribes and Pharisees:” long while He cried, “Woe unto the world because of offences.” And truly hoarse in a manner He cried, and therefore was not understood, when the Jews said, What is this that He saith? “Hard is this saying, who is able to hear it?”[John 7:36] We know not what He saith.
