A Commentary, Critical, Practical, and Explanatory on the Old and New Testaments, by Robert Jamieson, A.R. Fausset and David Brown [1882]
What do we? for this man doeth many miracles--"While we trifle, 'this man,' by His 'many miracles,' will carry all before Him; the popular enthusiasm will bring on a revolution, which will precipitate the Romans upon us, and our all will go down in one common ruin." What a testimony to the reality of our Lord's miracles, and their resistless effect, from His bitterest enemies!

16 Therefore [3767] said [3004] some [5100] of [1537] the Pharisees [5330], This [3778] man [444] is [2076] not [3756] of [3844] God [2316], because [3754] he keepeth [5083] not [3756] the sabbath day [4521]. Others [243] said [3004], How [4459] can [1410] a man [444] that is a sinner [268] do [4160] such [5108] miracles [4592]? And [2532] there was [2258] a division [4978] among [1722] them [846].
1 If there arise [06965] among [07130] you a prophet [05030], or a dreamer [02492] of dreams [02472], and giveth [05414] thee a sign [0226] or a wonder [04159],
24 For [1063] there shall arise [1453] false Christs [5580], and [2532] false prophets [5578], and [2532] shall shew [1325] great [3173] signs [4592] and [2532] wonders [5059]; insomuch that [5620], if [1487] it were possible [1415], they shall deceive [4105] the very [2532] elect [1588].
19 And [2532] this [3778] is [2076] the record [3141] of John [2491], when [3753] the Jews [2453] sent [649] priests [2409] and [2532] Levites [3019] from [1537] Jerusalem [2414] to [2443] ask [2065] him [846], Who [5101] art [1488] thou [4771]?
4 And [2532] when he had gathered [4863] all [3956] the chief priests [749] and [2532] scribes [1122] of the people [2992] together [4863], he demanded [4441] of [3844] them [846] where [4226] Christ [5547] should be born [1080].
6 But [1161] when Paul [3972] perceived [1097] that [3754] the one [1520] part [3313] were [2076] Sadducees [4523], and [1161] the other [2087] Pharisees [5330], he cried out [2896] in [1722] the council [4892], Men [435] and brethren [80], I [1473] am [1510] a Pharisee [5330], the son [5207] of a Pharisee [5330]: of [4012] the hope [1680] and [2532] resurrection [386] of the dead [3498] I [1473] am called in question [2919].
34 Then [1161] stood there up [450] one [5100] in [1722] the council [4892], a Pharisee [5330], named [3686] Gamaliel [1059], a doctor of the law [3547], had in reputation [5093] among all [3956] the people [2992], and commanded [2753] to put [4160] the apostles [652] forth [1854] a [5100] little space [1024];
14 Then [5119] one [1520] of the twelve [1427], called [3004] Judas [2455] Iscariot [2469], went [4198] unto [4314] the chief priests [749],
3 Then [5119] assembled together [4863] the chief priests [749], and [2532] the scribes [1122], and [2532] the elders [4245] of the people [2992], unto [1519] the palace [833] of the high priest [749], who [3588] was called [3004] Caiaphas [2533],
62 Now [1161] the next day [1887], that [3748] followed [2076] [3326] the day of the preparation [3904], the chief priests [749] and [2532] Pharisees [5330] came together [4863] unto [4314] Pilate [4091],
24 Now Annas [452] had sent [649] him [846] bound [1210] unto [4314] Caiaphas [2533] the high priest [749].
13 And [2532] led [520] him [846] away [520] to [4314] Annas [452] first [4412]; for [1063] he was [2258] father in law [3995] to Caiaphas [2533], which [3739] was [2258] the high priest [749] that same [1565] year [1763].
