ヨハネによる福音書 7:41-44 JC

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - John 7:44

Would have taken him - Or, they wished to seize him. And this they would have done, and destroyed him too at that time, had they been unanimous; but their being divided in opinion, John 7:43 , was the cause, under God, why his life was at that time preserved. How true are the words of the prophet: The wrath of man shall praise thee; and the remainder thereof thou wilt restrain! Psalm 76:10 . read more

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - John 7:41

Verse 41 41.Others said, He is the Christ. The second have a more correct opinion than the first; for they plainly acknowledge that he is the Christ; but the third (201) rise up against them, and hence proceeds the debate. By this example we are warned that we ought not to think it strange in the present day, if men are divided among themselves by various controversies. We learn that Christ’s sermon produced a schism, and that not among Gentiles who were strangers to the faith, but in the midst... read more

John Calvin's Commentary on the Bible - John 7:44

Verse 44 44.Some of them wished to seize him. By these words the Evangelist means, that they not only despised Christ, but that their wicked rejection of him was accompanied by cruelty and eagerness to do him injury; for superstition is always cruel. That their efforts were unavailing, we ought to ascribe to the providence of God; for since Christ’s hour was not yet come, as has been formerly said, guarded by the protection of his Father, on which he relied, he surmounted all dangers. read more

Effect of this address upon the multitude. It made a great impression. I. IT DEVELOPED DIFFERENCES OF OPINION . "Many then of the multitude, who had heard this discourse, said, Truly this is the Prophet. Others said, This is the Christ." 1 . A section of the multitude was favorable to Christ's Messianic claims— 2 . A section—perhaps the larger part—held that he could not be the Messiah, because he was born in Galilee. "Doth the Christ, then, come out of... read more

An important division. We have here: 1 . A great feast. That of Tabernacles . 2 . A great day. The last day of the feast. 3 . A great preacher. The Christ, the Son of God. 4 . A great sermon. "He cried;" and he had something worth crying—the living water for a thirsty world. 5 . A great division. "And there was a division among the people," etc. Notice— I. SOME OF THE FEATURES OF THIS DIVISION . 1 . Jesus was the Subject of this... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - John 7:41

Others said, This is the Christ. These must have pressed the argument further. The Lord must have seemed to them to combine the yet more explicit signs, not only of the Prophet that should come into the world, but of the anointed King and Priest—the Christ of their current expectation. But some £ said , Both the Christ come out of Galilee? Here criticism was at once at work upon obvious appearances, but misunderstood facts. Was he not called "Jesus of Nazareth"? His life had been... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - John 7:41

The Christ. In order that the language recorded in this passage to have been used by the Jews may be properly understood, it must be borne in mind that "the Christ" was not a proper name, but an official designation. It is the Greek equivalent for the Hebrew "Messiah," and signifies literally, "the Anointed One." The Christ is, then, One divinely selected, consecrated, and authorized. I. IT WAS KNOWN BY THE JEWS THAT THE COMING OF THE CHRIST WAS FORETOLD IN... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - John 7:42-43

Hath not the Scripture said, That the Christ cometh of the seed of David, and from Bethlehem, the village where David was? Therefore a division arose in the multitude because of him. De Wette, Baur, Weisse, Keim, and others have tried to prove from this that the evangelist was ignorant of Christ's birth at Bethlehem. "Hilgenfeld candidly owns that this passage assumes the author's knowledge of this very fact" (Godet). It was unknown to the multitude, who were not at that moment aware how... read more
