What does the Bible say about the Pharisees' understanding of Jesus?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible shows that the Pharisees were confused about Jesus' identity, failing to recognize Him as the Messiah despite His miracles and teachings.

In John 7:25-29, the people in Jerusalem question whether Jesus is the Messiah, acknowledging His miracles while the Pharisees dismiss Him based on their misunderstanding of Scripture. They claimed to know Jesus' origins as from Nazareth while denying the prophetic truth that the Messiah would come from Bethlehem. Jesus rebukes them, stating they do not truly know God or recognize His authority, emphasizing that He comes from God the Father.
