As Jesus taught the people, they became convinced
the He was the Great Prophet that Moses spoke of.
Others thought He was also the Christ.
But some of the Jews objected. It is a good example
of how a little knowledge can be worse than none.
Those who objected told that the Scriptures said
that Jesus was born in Bethlehem. But showed that
He was born in Nazareth. We know He was born
in Bethlehem, so their lack of knowledge led them
astray. If they had known the Scriptures they would
have known that the Great Light was to shine also in
the darkness of Galilee. This light was the Immanuel
who would be called "Wonderful, Counsellor, the
mighty God, the everlasting Father, the Prince of
Peace." Read Isaiah 9:1,2,6
