This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
our of us. Greek. hemon. Both the word and its position are emphatic. They claimed for themselves what belonged to God. Compare Mat_23:38,
your house. So the feasts of the Lord (Lev_23:2), are called in this gospel, feasts of the Jews (Joh_11:55; Joh_5:1; Joh_6:4; Joh_7:2).
place Greek. topos). No doubt the temple was meant, the centre and source of all their influence and power. The word is often so used. See Joh_4:20. Act_6:13, Act_6:14; Act_21:28, Act_21:29.
nation. Greek. ethnos. "Our" belongs to nation as well as to place. They claimed the nation which they ruled as their own (see Luk_20:14).
