OET (OET-LV) Therefore a_division became in the crowd because_of him.

OET (OET-RV) And so the crowd was divided about Yeshua.

SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 7:40–44: People disagreed about Jesus

The people disagreed about who Jesus was. Some thought that he might be the Messiah and others said that it was impossible because he was from Galilee.

Here are some other possible section headings:

People in the crowd disagreed about who Jesus was

People argued about Jesus

7:43

So there was division in the crowd because of Jesus.

So there was division in the crowd because of Jesus: This sentence means that the people in the crowd did not agree about Jesus. Some thought that he was the Messiah and others did not, so there was division (different groups that disagreed).

Here are other ways to translate this sentence:

Thus he was the cause of a division among the people. (REB)

So the people did not agree with each other about Jesus. (NCV)

So: The Greek conjunction that the BSB translates as So introduces the result of the different views of Jesus that were explained in 7:40–42.

there was division in the crowd: The noun phrase division in the crowd here indicates that people held different views and were arguing about them. It does not refer to being physically separated. In some languages it may be natural to translate this noun phase using a verb. For example:

the people were divided because of Jesus (NIV)

the people could not agree about him (NJB)

because of Jesus: This phrase indicates the reason for the division. The people were angry at each other because they had different opinions about Jesus.

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

σχίσμα & ἐγένετο ἐν τῷ ὄχλῳ

˓a˒_division & became in the crowd

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of division, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: [the crowd was divided]

Note 2 topic: grammar-collectivenouns

ἐν τῷ ὄχλῳ

in the crowd

See how you translated crowd in [5:13](../05/13.md).

TSN Tyndale Study Notes:

7:1-52 This chapter is another account of Jesus during a Jewish festival, the Festival of Shelters. Jesus used elements of the festival to reveal his true identity to his Jewish compatriots and to show that he had fulfilled the festival’s essential meaning (see 7:37-39; 8:12).
