¹⁹This is ^(A)the testimony of John, when ^(B)the Jews sent priests and Levites to him ^(C)from Jerusalem to ask him, “Who are you?”

John 1:19

New International Version

¹⁹Now this was John’s^(A) testimony when the Jewish leaders^[a]^(B) in Jerusalem sent priests and Levites to ask him who he was.

John 1:19 The Greek term traditionally translated the Jews (hoi Ioudaioi) refers here and elsewhere in John’s Gospel to those Jewish leaders who opposed Jesus; also in 5:10, 15, 16; 7:1, 11, 13; 9:22; 18:14, 28, 36; 19:7, 12, 31, 38; 20:19.

⁴¹^(A)So then the Jews were complaining about Him because He said, “I am the bread that ^(B)came down out of heaven.”

⁴¹At this the Jews there began to grumble about him because he said, “I am the bread that came down from heaven.”
