Mat_27:23
Τί
γάρ
] does not presuppose a “non faciam,” or some such phrase (Grotius, Maldonatus, Fritzsche), but
γάρ
denotes an inference from the existing state of matters, and throws the whole emphasis upon
τί
: quid ergo. See on Joh_9:30 and 1Co_11:22.
Chrysostom appropriately points out how
ἀνάνδρως
καὶ
σφόδρα
μαλακῶς
Pilate behaved.
