This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

Joh 11:48. Οὓτω) thus, as heretofore, say they, we have left Him alone.-πάντες, all men) and indeed with good reason.-οἱ Ῥωμαῖοι, the Romans) Their supposition was, that the Romans would regard that [the adhesion of the people to Jesus] as sedition. And yet [with all their scheming] the Jews did not escape that which they dreaded: [nay, indeed they brought it upon themselves by this very course of action.-V. g.]-καὶ τὸν τόπον καὶ τὸ ἔθνος, both our place and nation) Equivalent to an adage, i.e. our all, τόπος, territory.
