Juan 7:20-36 NVI

The Biblical Illustrator - John 7:19-30

John 7:19-30Did not Moses give you the law? Murder in desireThe desire to kill Christ I. WAS INCONSISTENT WITH THEIR RELIGIOUS PROFESSION. They professedly believed in Moses, and esteemed him highly. But there was nothing in Moses to sanction their antagonism to Christ. 1. The spirit of their opposition was inconsistent with the moral law of Moses (John 7:19). You seek to kill Me, when your moral master in God’s name has said, “Thou shalt not kill.” None of you keepeth the law in this respect.... read more

John 7:31-36And many of the people believed on Him.The favourably disposed, and the malignantly opposed to ChristI. THOSE WHO WERE FAVOURABLY DISPOSED (John 7:31). The commonalty, who were more or less unsophisticated and free from religious prejudices. These “heard Christ gladly.” This favourable disposition 1. Was founded on facts. There does not seem to be any question, even among His opponents, as to the reality of His miracles. 2. Intensified the opposition of His enemies (John 7:32). They... read more

John Trapp Complete Commentary - John 7:20

20 The people answered and said, Thou hast a devil: who goeth about to kill thee? Ver. 20. Thou hast a devil ] This he passeth by as a frontless slander, not worth refuting, but proceeds to maintain the lawfulness of what he had done on the sabbath day. Sincerity throws off slanders, as Paul did the viper; yea, in a holy scorn, it laughs at them, as the wild ass does at the horse and his rider. Wicellius and Cochleus say that we betrayed the Rhodes (saith Melancthon), and some other such foul... read more

John Trapp Complete Commentary - John 7:21

21 Jesus answered and said unto them, I have done one work, and ye all marvel. Ver. 21. And ye all marvel ] i.e. ye all murmur: but he speaks the best of them, as not willing to enrage them. read more

John Trapp Complete Commentary - John 7:22

22 Moses therefore gave unto you circumcision; (not because it is of Moses, but of the fathers;) and ye on the sabbath day circumcise a man. Ver. 22. Moses therefore ] Tam severus sabbati exactor, As strict as he was for the observation of the sabbath, yet he was not against circumcision, and the healing again of the child’s wound, upon that day. And if any object that circumcision was a sacrament, and so a sabbath day’s work, it may be answered, 1. That this cure also was much to the glory... read more

John Trapp Complete Commentary - John 7:23

23 If a man on the sabbath day receive circumcision, that the law of Moses should not be broken; are ye angry at me, because I have made a man every whit whole on the sabbath day? Ver. 23. That the law of Moses should not be broken ] Gr. loosened, shattered. The law is one entire copulative; so that he that offendeth in any point is guilty of all, James 2:10 . Hence when the sabbath was broken, the Lord said to Moses, "How long refuse ye to keep my commandments and my laws?"Exodus 16:28;... read more

John Trapp Complete Commentary - John 7:24

24 Judge not according to the appearance, but judge righteous judgment. Ver. 24. Judge not according to the appearance ] Nothing is more ordinary with many than to precipitate a censure, to exercise their critics, and to reprehend that which they do not comprehend. Arbitror saith Augustine (de Trim i. 3), nonnullos opinaturos me sensisse quod non sensi, aut non sensisse quod sensi, I suppose that several in reading some places in my books will think that I thought that which never came... read more

John Trapp Complete Commentary - John 7:25

25 Then said some of them of Jerusalem, Is not this he, whom they seek to kill? Ver. 25. Then said some of them of Jerusalem ] That knew more of the ruler’s mind than the common people, who believed not that there was any such deadly designs, John 7:26 . Howbeit these wits of Jerusalem take no notice at all of God’s hand in Christ’s deliverance, and his present boldness in so extreme a danger. read more

John Trapp Complete Commentary - John 7:26

26 But, lo, he speaketh boldly, and they say nothing unto him. Do the rulers know indeed that this is the very Christ? Ver. 26. But lo, he speaketh boldly, and they say nothing to him ] God restrained them, putting his bit in their jaws, his hook in their nostrils. In the year 1159, lived John, bishop of Salisbury, qui et praesens praesentem Pontificem redarguit, et Polycraticon conscripsit, in quo clerum libere flagellat, who reproved the pope to his face, and wrote his Polycraticon,... read more

John Trapp Complete Commentary - John 7:27

27 Howbeit we know this man whence he is: but when Christ cometh, no man knoweth whence he is. Ver. 27. No man knoweth whence he is ] This error might arise out of some texts of Scripture misunderstood, as Isaiah 53:8 ; Psalms 110:4 . We should, whenever we open the Bible, pray, "Lord, open mine eyes, that I may see the wondrous things of thy law," Psalms 119:18 . read more
