You will seek me, and won't find me; and where I am, you can't come."

The Jews therefore said among themselves, "Where will this man go that we won't find him? Will he go to the Dispersion among the Greeks, and teach the Greeks?

What is this word that he said, 'You will seek me, and won't find me; and where I am, you can't come?'"

Now on the last and greatest day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried out, "If anyone is thirsty, let him come to me and drink!

He who believes in me, as the Scripture has said, from within him will flow rivers of living water."

"Does our law judge a man, unless it first hears from him personally and knows what he does?"

They answered him, "Are you also from Galilee? Search, and see that no prophet has arisen out of Galilee."
