When this Sound occurred, the
multitude came together, and were
confused, because everyone heard
them speak in his own language.
They were all amazed and marvelled,
saying to one another: "Behold! Are

“And how is it that we hear, each in

On the last day, that Great Day of the
Feast, Jesus stood and cried out,
saying: "If anyone thirsts, let him
come to Me and drink. He who
believes in Me - as the Scripture has
said - out of his heart will flow
rivers of Living Water."
This He spoke concerning the Spirit,
Whom those Believing in Him would
receive, for the Holy Spirit was not
yet given, for Jesus was not yet
Glorified.
Many from the crowd, when they heard
this saying, said: “Truly this is the
Prophet."
Others said: "This is the Christ."
