Commentary on John 10:33

Theological / Devotional

For blasphemy. The Jews felt the force of Jesus’ reproach and would not admit that His good works were without meaning to them. It was true, nevertheless, that His good works had stimulated their ill will into more intense activity. However, they credited themselves with a higher motive than a doctrinal one; they affected great jealousy for the honor of God. The charge of blasphemy was later lodged before Pilate (ch. 19:7).
