Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - John 7:33-34

John 7:33-34. Then said Jesus Continuing his discourse, (from John 7:29,) which they had interrupted, Yet a little while am I with you My ministry among you is drawing toward a conclusion; you ought, therefore, while it lasts, to make the best possible improvement of it. For ye shall seek me, and shall not find me You shall earnestly desire my presence with you, but shall not obtain it. “This seeking for the Messiah was general through the nation, during the calamities in Judea,... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - John 7:14-44

86. Jesus teaches in the temple (John 7:14-44)The Feast of Tabernacles lasted a week. After the excitement of the first two or three days had died down, Jesus began to teach in the temple. People were impressed with his teaching, though he taught not to gain honour for himself but to bring glory to God who had sent him. If people loved God and wanted to do his will, they would see that what Jesus taught was the truth of God (John 7:14-18). The Jews accused Jesus of breaking the law, because on... read more

Coffman Commentaries on the Bible - John 7:33

Jesus therefore said, Yet a little while I am with you, and I go unto him that sent me.Yet a little while ... It was October, and Christ was appointed to die at the Passover in April. During that intervening six months, all the powers of hell were not sufficient to have harmed the little finger of Jesus. Finally, when the blow fell, it was with our Lord's full knowledge and consent.I go unto him ... The words" I go" in this place are like those in John 7:8; and the perceptive words of Hunter... read more

Thomas Coke Commentary on the Holy Bible - John 7:33-34

John 7:33-34. Yet a little while am I with you, &c.— While the rulers were taking counsel against him, Jesus was preaching to the people concerning the improvement which it became them to make of his ministry among them: "Yet a little while, said our Lord, and my ministry among you is at an end; you ought therefore, while it lasts, to make the best possible improvement of it; particularly, you should listen to my sermons with great attention, that you may have your minds stored with the... read more

Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible - John 7:33

33, 34. Yet a little while, c.—that is, "Your desire to be rid of Me will be for you all too soon fulfilled. Yet a little while and we part company—for ever for I go whither ye cannot come: nor, even when ye at length seek Him whom ye now despise, shall ye be able to find Him"—referring not to any penitential, but to purely selfish cries in their time of desperation. read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - John 7:10-42

H. Jesus’ third visit to Jerusalem 7:10-10:42This section of the text describes Jesus’ teaching in Jerusalem during the feast of Tabernacles and the feast of Dedication. John evidently included it in His narrative because it contains important revelations of Jesus’ identity and explains the mounting opposition to Jesus that culminated in His crucifixion. read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - John 7:33-34

Jesus again said that His hour had not yet come, only in different words. When His hour came, He would return to the Father. The Jews would search for Him but be unable to find Him. He was going where they could not come, namely, to heaven. Death was not the end. They could not come where He was going in their present condition. That required regeneration and translation (cf. John 8:21; John 13:33).Time was running out both for Jesus to finish His work and for the Jews to believe on Him. The... read more
