This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
44.Some of them wished to seize him. By these words the Evangelist means, that they not only despised Christ, but that their wicked rejection of him was accompanied by cruelty and eagerness to do him injury; for superstition is always cruel. That their efforts were unavailing, we ought to ascribe to the providence of God; for since Christ’ hour was not yet come, as has been formerly said, guarded by the protection of his Father, on which he relied, he surmounted all dangers.
