This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
They sought again to seize him (ezētoun auton palin piazai). Imperfect active, “They kept on seeking to seize” (ingressive aorist active infinitive of piazō for which see Joh 7:30) as they had tried repeatedly (Joh 7:1, Joh 7:30, Joh 7:44; Joh 8:20), but in vain. They gave up the effort to stone him.
Out of their hand (ek tēs cheiros autōn). Overawed, but still angry, the stones fell to the ground, and Jesus walked out.
