The Pulpit Commentary - John 7:19-24

Justification of his conduct. The allusion to unrighteousness is the point of transition from Christ's teaching to his conduct. I. HE IS CHARGED BY THE JEWS WITH BREAKING THE SABBATH LAW . 1 . He had healed the impotent man at a former visit to Jerusalem on the sabbath day. "I have done one work, and ye all marvel." 2 . The Jews would have stoned him as a transgressor for the act.

The Pulpit Commentary - John 7:21

Jesus answered and said to them; i.e. to the multitude wire had so coarsely treated him, and to the "Jews" who were present, who were all marvelling together at the line he was taking. The very interruption was a proof both of the extent and consequence of their wonderment. One work I did, and ye are all marvelling. This one work was a very small fraction of his mighty signs, but it was one which, from its manner of operation, and from the fact that it was immediately brought before... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - John 7:22

Moses on this account (for this cause) £ hath given (assigned) you the circumcision ( not that it is of Moses, but of the fathers ). If we accept the text as above, the question arises—Does it refer to the parenthetical clause or to the principal verb? Meyer renders as follows: "Therefore Moses gave you circumcision, not because it originated with Moses, but (because it originated) with the fathers, and so ye circumcise," etc., making the precedence of the law of circumcision... read more

If a man on ( a ) sabbath receive circumcision, which was the removal by surgical means of what was regarded as a cause and sign of physical impurity, as well as the seal of the covenant made with the family of Abraham, that his seed should be heir of the world, and that in that seed all the nations of the earth should be blessed, in order that the law of Moses might not be broken.

The Pulpit Commentary - John 7:24

Judge not according to appearance ― the superficial aspect of things, the merely formal side, the unexplained letter of the Law. οψις id quod sub visum cadit res in conspicuo posita. According to that, the healing and the bed carrying consequent upon it would be a positive infraction of a certain enactment. But judge £ righteous judgment . Consider the case, and see that I have done, in this act of healing, less than you are doing yourselves, notwithstanding all your punctilio,... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - John 7:25

Therefore —by reason of his bold self-vindication— some of the Jerusalemites were saying, Is not this he, whom they seek to kill? If the multitudes of the provincials were ignorant of the design of the hierarchy, the plot was not a complete secret. read more

(4) Special perplexity of some Jerusalemites, and Christ's reply. A second scene is here described, not necessarily on the day of his first appearance in the temple, though it took place in the temple ( John 7:28 ). We see, however, a new wave of feeling. The multitude, or part of it, that gathered round him was maddened with his intimation of the murderous animosity of the authorities; but the dwellers in Jerusalem were better informed of the malignant spirit he had excited. read more
