Exegesis
The genitive tēs kōmēs depends on Bethleem, either appositional (“Bethlehem, the village”) or possessive (“Bethlehem of the village”), and is further specified by the relative clause hopou ēn Dauid {ὅπου ἦν Δαυίδ | hópou ên Dauíd}, grounding Bethlehem in David’s own history (“where David was”).
In context — John 7:42
Has not the Scripture said that the Christ comes from the seed of David and from Bethlehem, the village where David was?
