João 11:8 Meaning and Commentary

John 11:8

[His] disciples said unto him, master
Addressing him very reverently, and with great concern for his safety, as well as their own:

the Jews of late,
or but now,

sought to stone thee;
as they had attempted to do twice in a very little time; see ( John 8:59 ) ( 10:31 ) ;

and goest thou thither again?
where there are so many enemies; and so much danger, and but little hope of doing much good; whereas here he was among his friends, and in safety, and very useful.

João 11:8 In-Context

6 Quando, pois, ouviu que estava enfermo, ficou ainda dois dias no lugar onde se achava.

7 Depois disto, disse a seus discípulos: Vamos outra vez para Judéia.

8 Disseram-lhe eles: Rabi, ainda agora os judeus procuravam apedrejar-te, e voltas para lá?

9 Respondeu Jesus: Não são doze as horas do dia? Se alguém andar de dia, não tropeça, porque vê a luz deste mundo;

10 mas se andar de noite, tropeça, porque nele não há luz.
