Johannes 13:29

29 Etliche meinten, dieweil Judas den Beutel hatte, Jesus spräche zu ihm: Kaufe was uns not ist auf das Fest! oder daß er den Armen etwas gäbe.

Johannes 13:29 Meaning and Commentary

John 13:29

For some of them thought
This was the thought of some of the disciples, it may be of all of them but John;

because Judas had the bag:
which was for the common supply of Christ and his disciples, and for the relief of the poor; (See Gill on John 12:6).

That Jesus had said unto him, buy those things that we have need of
against the feast;
the feast of the passover, which was to be two days after; and shows, that this was not the passover which Christ now ate with his disciples:

or that he should give something to the poor;
for whom Christ cared, and had a hearty concern, and for whom Judas had very little, notwithstanding his high pretensions.

Johannes 13:29 In-Context

27 Und nach dem Bissen fuhr der Satan in ihn. Da sprach Jesus zu ihm: Was du tust, das tue bald!

28 Das aber wußte niemand am Tische, wozu er's ihm sagte.

29 Etliche meinten, dieweil Judas den Beutel hatte, Jesus spräche zu ihm: Kaufe was uns not ist auf das Fest! oder daß er den Armen etwas gäbe.

30 Da er nun den Bissen genommen hatte, ging er alsbald hinaus. Und es war Nacht.

31 Da er aber hinausgegangen war, spricht Jesus: Nun ist des Menschen Sohn verklärt, und Gott ist verklärt in ihm.
