Contextual Overview

³⁷ In the last day, that great day of the feast, Iesus stoode and cryed, saying: Yf any man thirste, let him come vnto me and drynke: ³⁸ He that beleueth on me, as saith the scripture, out of his belly shall flowe ryuers of water of lyfe. ³⁹ (But this spake he of the spirite, which they yt beleue on hym, should receaue. For the holy ghost was not yet [there] because Iesus was not yet glorified.) ⁴⁰ Many of the people therfore, when they hearde this saying, sayde: Of a trueth this is the prophete. ⁴¹ But other sayde, this is Christe: But some saide, shall Christe come out of Galilee? ⁴² Sayth not the scripture, that Christe shall come of the seede of Dauid, and out of the towne of Bethlehem, where Dauid was? ⁴³ So was there discention among the people, because of hym. ⁴⁴ And some of them woulde haue taken hym, but no man layde handes on him.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Many of the people therefore,.... Of the common people, and it may be chiefly those that came out of the country:

when they heard this saying; or discourse of Christ, on the last and great day of the feast, relating to the large measure of grace, and the effusion of the Spirit on him, that believed:

said, of a truth this is the prophet; spoken of in Deuteronomy 18:15, which some understood not of the Messiah, but of some extraordinary prophet distinct from him, who should come before him, or about the same time; or they imagined he was one of the old prophets raised from the dead, whom they also expected about the times of the Messiah: or their sense might only be, that he was a prophet, which was true, though not all the truth; they had some knowledge, though but small; and they spake of him, though but as children in understanding.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

The Prophet - That is, the prophet whom they expected to precede the coming of the Messiah - either Elijah or Jeremiah. See Matthew 16:14.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 40. Of a truth this is the Prophet. — The great prophet, or teacher, spoken of by Moses, Deuteronomy 18:15, which they improperly distinguished from the Messiah, John 7:41. Some no doubt knew that by the prophet, the Messiah was meant; but others seem to have thought that one of the ancient prophets should be raised from the dead, and precede the appearing of the Messiah.
