Yohanes 5:18

5:18 For this reason the Jewish leaders ¹  were trying even harder to kill him, because not only was he breaking the Sabbath, but he was also calling God his own Father, thus making himself equal with God.

Yohanes 10:33

Yohanes 19:7

19:7 The Jewish leaders ⁸  replied, ⁹  “We have a law, ¹⁰  and according to our law he ought to die, because he claimed to be the Son of God!” ¹¹ 

[5:18]  ¹ tn Or “the Jewish authorities”; Grk “the Jews.” See the note on the phrase “Jewish leaders” in v. 10.

[10:33]  ² tn Or “the Jewish authorities”; Grk “the Jews.” Here again the phrase refers to the Jewish leaders. See the notes on the phrase “Jewish people” in v. 19 and “Jewish leaders” in vv. 24, 31.

[10:33]  ³ tn Grk “answered him.”

[10:33]  ⁴ tn Or “good work.”

[10:33]  ⁵ sn This is the first time the official charge of blasphemy is voiced openly in the Fourth Gospel (although it was implicit in John 8:59).

[10:33]  ⁶ tn Grk “and because.”

[10:33]  ⁷ tn Grk “you, a man, make yourself to be God.”

[19:7]  ⁸ tn Or “the Jewish authorities”; Grk “the Jews.” In NT usage the term ᾿Ιουδαῖοι (Ioudaioi) may refer to the entire Jewish people, the residents of Jerusalem and surrounding territory, the authorities in Jerusalem, or merely those who were hostile to Jesus. (For further information see R. G. Bratcher, “‘The Jews’ in the Gospel of John,” BT 26 [1975]: 401-9.) Here the phrase refers to the Jewish leaders, especially members of the Sanhedrin, and their servants (mentioned specifically as “the chief priests and their servants” in John 19:6).

[19:7]  ⁹ tn Grk “answered him.”

[19:7]  ¹⁰ sn This law is not the entire Pentateuch, but Lev 24:16.

[19:7]  ¹¹ tn Grk “because he made himself out to be the Son of God.”
