约翰福音 5章16节 到 5章16节 上一笔 下一笔 |
{Persecute} (edi(936b)on). Inchoative imperfect, "began to persecute" and kept it up. They took this occasion as one excuse (dia touto, because of this). They disliked Jesus when here first ( 2:18 ) and were suspicious of his popularity ( 4:1 ). Now they have cause for an open breach. {Because he did} (hoti epoiei). Imperfect active, not just this one act, but he was becoming a regular Sabbath-breaker. The Pharisees will watch his conduct on the Sabbath henceforth ( Mr 2:23 3:2 ). |
