NASB | John 7:38 "He who believes in Me, as the Scripture said, 'From his innermost being will flow rivers of living water.'" |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | John 7:38 "He who believes in Me [who adheres to, trusts in, and relies on Me], as the Scripture has said, 'From his innermost being will flow continually rivers of living water.'" [Is 58:11; John 4:14] |
Bible Question (short): Flow out of WHOSE innermost being? |
Question (full): In the Scripture quoted by Jesus in this verse, 'who' is the antecedent to the pronoun "his"? 'From HIS innermost being will flow rivers of living water.' To whom does 'HIS' refer? Based on the context (verses 37-39), I believe the primary reference here is to our Lord, Jesus Christ. I would like to hear the opinions of others on this matter. Thanks in advance. Tim D.
