Lukas 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.

Lukas 11:54 In-Context

52 Wehe euch Gesetzgelehrten! Denn ihr habt den Schlüssel der Erkenntnis weggenommen; ihr selbst seid nicht hineingegangen, und die Hineingehenden habt ihr gehindert.
53 Als er aber dies zu ihnen sagte, fingen die Schriftgelehrten und die Pharisäer an, hart auf ihn einzudringen und ihn über vieles auszufragen;
54 und sie lauerten auf ihn, etwas aus seinem Munde zu erjagen.
