Commentary on John 7:42
Hath not the scripture said, That Christ cometh of the seed of David, and out of the town of Bethlehem, where David was? The objectors cite correct Scripture—Messiah comes from David's line and Bethlehem (2 Samuel 7:12-13, Micah 5:2). Their scriptural knowledge is accurate, but they apply it wrongly due to incomplete information about Jesus. Jesus does fulfill these requirements (Matthew 1:1-17, Luke 2:4-7), but they don't know His birth narrative. This shows how correct theology wrongly applied can lead to false conclusions.
