So they were saying to Him, "Who are You?" Jesus said to them, "What have I been saying to you from the beginning?The people had all the pieces before them, but didn't put them together. Jesus had given them all the information they needed to know who He was. However, they didn't understand it, and therefore missed Him.
I don't want to sound like I'm casting aspersions on them, or insulting them. I'm sure that if I'd been there, I would have missed the same signs. No matter how clearly something is laid out, people have an enormous capacity to see what they want to see, or let a small assumption shape their focus.
