{On one of the days} (en mi(8369) t(936e) h(886d)er(936e)). Luke's
favourite way of indicating time. It was the last day of the
temple teaching (Tuesday).  Lu 20:1-19  is to be compared with
 Mr 11:27-12:12  Mt 21:23-46 . {There came upon him}
(epest(8873)an). Second aorist active indicative, ingressive aorist
of ephist(886d)i, old and common verb, stood up against him, with
the notion of sudden appearance. These leaders (cf.  19:47 ) had
determined to attack Jesus on this morning, both Sadducees (chief
priests) and Pharisees (scribes), a formal delegation from the
Sanhedrin.
