Contextual Overview

³⁷ On the last and most important day of the feast Jesus stood up and said in a loud voice, "Let anyone who is thirsty come to me and drink. ³⁸ If anyone believes in me, rivers of living water will flow out from that person's heart, as the Scripture says." ³⁹ Jesus was talking about the Holy Spirit. The Spirit had not yet been given, because Jesus had not yet been raised to glory. But later, those who believed in Jesus would receive the Spirit. ⁴⁰ When the people heard Jesus' words, some of them said, "This man really is the Prophet." ⁴¹ Others said, "He is the Christ." Still others said, "The Christ will not come from Galilee. ⁴² The Scripture says that the Christ will come from David's family and from Bethlehem, the town where David lived." ⁴³ So the people did not agree with each other about Jesus. ⁴⁴ Some of them wanted to arrest him, but no one was able to touch him.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

So there was a division among the people concerning him. Some, though they did not go so far as to believe him to be the Messiah, yet took him to be a prophet, and a very extraordinary one; others made no difficulty to assert him to be the Christ; and others objected to it on account of the country from whence he came, and so fulfilled the words of Christ, Luke 12:51.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 43. There was a division — σχισμα, a schism; they were divided in sentiment, and separated into parties. This is the true notion of schism.
