Commentary

Commentary on John 7:32

Theological / Devotional

Pharisees. This sect was especially hostile to Jesus, and now took the initiative in calling the Sanhedrin together. The chief priests were for the most part Sadducees. On the Sanhedrin see p. 67.

Murmured. Gr. gogguzo, here apparently denoting a subdued discussion, or debate, rather than complaint (see v. 12).

Officers. Presumably the Temple police.
