You mean this?

John 10:16 And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold: them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one fold, and one shepherd.

And this?

John 10:24 Then came the Jews round about him, and said unto him, How long dost thou make us to doubt? If thou be the Christ, tell us plainly. 25 Jesus answered them, I told you, and ye believed not: the works that I do in my Father's name, they bear witness of me. 26 But ye believe not, because ye are not of my sheep, as I said unto you.

Basically.

“The Jews” in most English Bibles is the Pharisees, not the general population. Yeshua was at odds with them almost universally due to their replacement of his Torah with their Takanot and Maasim (AKA oral Torah) and made it clear that they were not among those that the Father gave him.
