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. But this people, who knoweth not the Law, are cursed. v. 50. Nicodemus saith unto them, (he that came to Jesus by night, being one of them,) v.... read more

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 7:53

‘And they went every man to his own house but Jesus went to the Mount of Olives’. This proposed closure of the previous section clearly reflects the contrast between the One who goes aside to pray and those have no such intent, those who live in accordance with the world. It is being made clear that He is determined to keep in close touch with His Father, while they follow the ideas of the world. He is thus being seen as the spiritual One. Perhaps because of this, humanly speaking, He is able... read more

Arthur Peake's Commentary on the Bible - John 7:53

PERICOPE ADULTERS. John 7:53 to John 8:11 . Jesus and the Woman Accused of Sin.— The well-known story of the woman taken in adultery has no claim to be regarded as part of the original text of this gospel. It breaks the close connexion between John 7 and John 8:12 ff., and in style and vocabulary it is clearly Synoptic rather than Johannine. Of early Greek MSS the Cambridge MS (D) alone contains it, and in a text which differs considerably from that of the later Greek MSS from which it passed... read more

Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible - John 7:53

As little as Nicodemus said for Christ, it put a stop to their further proceedings against Christ at present. Some think that the party of the Sadducees in the council, who valued not the Pharisees’ rites and traditions, took part with Nicodemus; so as by the overruling hand of God Christ at this time escaped their wicked counsels against him. So much is certain; but what parties in the council concurred in it, is uncertain. 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
