Lucas 11:54

54 Acechándole, y procurando cazar algo de su boca para acusarle.

Lucas 11:54 Meaning and Commentary

Luke 11:54

Laying wait for him
To ensnare and entangle him, watching his words, observing what he said, and laying hold thereon:

and seeking to catch something out of his mouth;
like beasts of prey, or hunters, that were watching for their prey; or lay ambush, diligently looking out, and greedily catching at every thing they thought for their purpose:

that they might accuse him;
either of heresy or sedition, to the Jewish sanhedrim, or the Roman governor.

Lucas 11:54 In-Context

52 ¡Ay de vosotros, doctores de la ley! que habéis quitado la llave de la ciencia; vosotros mismos no entrasteis, y á los que entraban impedisteis.
53 Y diciéndoles estas cosas, los escribas y los Fariseos comenzaron á apretar le en gran manera, y á provocarle á que hablase de muchas cosas;
54 Acechándole, y procurando cazar algo de su boca para acusarle.
