João 11:53 Meaning and Commentary

John 11:53

Then from that day forth
Caiaphas's reasoning appeared so good, and his advice so agreeable, that it was at once, and generally assented to, except by one or two, as Nicodemus, and Joseph of Arimathea; that ever after this,

they took counsel together;
at certain times, and that very often, and agreed in their counsel,

for to put him to death;
this they resolved upon, before there was any legal process, before any crime was charged upon him, or any proof given, or he was heard what he had to say for himself; so highly approved of was Caiaphas's motion, to put him to death, right or wrong, whether he was innocent or not; that they had nothing to do, but to consult of ways and means of getting him into their hands, and of taking away his life in a manner, as would he most for their own credit among the people, and to his shame and disgrace, and at the most proper and suitable time.

João 11:53 In-Context

51 Ele não disse isso de si mesmo, mas, sendo o sumo sacerdote naquele ano, profetizou que Jesus morreria pela nação judaica,

52 e não somente por aquela nação, mas também pelos filhos de Deus que estão espalhados, para reuni-los num povo.

53 E daquele dia em diante, resolveram tirar-lhe a vida.

54 Por essa razão, Jesus não andava mais publicamente entre os judeus. Em vez disso, retirou-se para uma região próxima do deserto, para um povoado chamado Efraim, onde ficou com os seus discípulos.

55 Ao se aproximar a Páscoa judaica, muitos foram daquela região para Jerusalém a fim de participarem das purificações cerimoniais antes da Páscoa.
