The Popular Commentary by Paul E. Kretzmann - John 7:45-53

The report of the guard: v. 45. Then came the officers to the chief priests and Pharisees; and they said unto them, Why have ye not brought Him? v. 46. The officers answered, Never man spake like this man. v. 47. Then answered them the Pharisees, Are ye also deceived? v. 48. Have any of the rulers or of the Pharisees believed on Him? v. 49.

the Blindness of Prejudice John 7:40-53 These short descriptions of the impressions made on His hearers by the discourses of Jesus indicate the double development which was resulting from His ministry. Those in favor spoke of the Prophet and the Christ. Compare John 1:21 ; John 6:14 . Others raised objections, John 7:41-42 . Others again desired to take action, John 7:44 . Though it was a holy day, the Sanhedrin was in session to receive the report of their officers. These, by their candid... read more

G. Campbell Morgan's Exposition on the Whole Bible - John 7:1-53

So far, John has recorded incidents in the first year of our Lord's ministry. We now come to a comparatively brief section in which he records happenings happenings in the central and crowded two years. He arrived in Jerusalem at the feast of Tabernacles. His fame had spread, and there was discussion concerning Him there. Having arrived, He taught in the Temple precincts. In doing so He rebuked their attitude, and referred to the miracle wrought on an earlier occasion in the Bethesda porches.... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - John 7:43-53

The Woman Taken In Adultery (John 7:53 to John 8:11 ). This passage is in fact omitted by almost all the most ancient manuscripts (it is only in D), and by the oldest versions (Syriac, Coptic and some of the old latin), and is not mentioned by the earliest fathers, with the exception of Papias (early 2nd century) who is said to have commented on it. In this regard it is connected with the Gospel according to the Hebrews. Many later manuscripts mark it in such a way as to show that there was... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - John 7:45-52

The Chief Priests And Pharisees Dismiss Belief In Him As Ridiculous (John 7:45-52 ). Sitting waiting in their quarters the leading religious authorities were seething. The last thing that they wanted was a popular uprising in support of Jesus, for it would both undermine their own status, and bring the wrath of Pilate on them. Thus when their officials returned without carrying out Jesus’ arrest they treated them with angry disdain. We note that the Chief Priests and the Pharisees were still... read more

Peter Pett's Commentary on the Bible - John 7:52

‘They answered and said to him, “Are you also from Galilee? Search and discover that no prophet arises from Galilee”.’ The reply tells us all we need to know about the genuineness of these particular Pharisees. What Nicodemus had suggested was basic justice and in accord with the law of Moses. But they dismissed it with the contempt of men who were not even prepared to consider the truth of Jesus’ claims. And they soon revealed one of the roots of their prejudice. ‘Are you also from Galilee?... read more

John 7:37-1 Thessalonians : . The Last Day of the Feast.— The Feast of Tabernacles, the feast of the ingathering at the end of summer, lasted seven days in early times ( Deuteronomy 16:13). An eighth day was added later ( Leviticus 23:36). The custom of bringing water from Siloah each day and only pouring it out before the altar, is known certainly for later times, but probably existed in Christ’ s time. It was held to commemorate the gift of water in the wilderness ( Exodus 17:6), and was... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - John 7:52

Art thou also of Galilee; not that they thought Nicodemus was a Galilean; they knew him well enough; but they take up this as a term of reproach against him, for that he would offer to speak one word (though never so just) on the behalf of one against whom they had such a perfect hatred. Search (say they) the Scriptures, and look if ever there came a prophet out of Galilee. Suppose this had been truth; yet, 1. What did this concern our Saviour? Who was not born in Galilee, but in Judea, in... read more

EXPLANATORY AND CRITICAL NOTESJohn 7:41-42. The Christ.—Hearts open to the truth were convinced and confessed Him. But some said, etc.—These were unlike the guileless Nathanael (John 1:46-49). He asked when first told of Jesus, “Can any good thing (above all the Messiah, he meant) come out of Nazareth.” But he soon learned to think otherwise. These objectors could have inquired into the truth regarding Christ’s earthly lineage, and the place of His birth (Micah 5:2); but, unlike Nathanael, they... read more
