SEV Biblia, Chapter 11:53
Así que, desde aquel día consultaban juntos para matarle.
Clarke's Bible Commentary - John 11:53
Verse 53. They took counsel together] sunebouleusanto, they were of one accord in the business, and had fully made up their minds on the subject; and they waited only for a proper opportunity to put him to death.
John Gill's Bible Commentary
Ver. 53. Then from that day forth , etc.] Caiaphass reasoning appeared so good, and his advice so agreeable, that it was at once, and generally assented to, except by one or two, as Nicodemus, and Joseph of Arimathea; that ever after this, they took counsel together ; at certain times, and that very often, and agreed in their counsel, for to put him to death ; this they resolved upon, before there was any legal process, before any crime was charged upon him, or any proof given, or he was heard what he had to say for himself; so highly approved of was Caiaphass motion, to put him to death, right or wrong, whether he was innocent or not; that they had nothing to do, but to consult of ways and means of getting him into their hands, and of taking away his life in a manner, as would he most for their own credit among the people, and to his shame and disgrace, and at the most proper and suitable time.
Matthew Henry Commentary
Verses 47-53 - There can hardly be a more clear discovery of the madness that is in man's heart, and of its desperate enmity against God, than what is her recorded. Words of prophecy in the mouth, are not clear evidence of principle of grace in the heart. The calamity we seek to escape by sin we take the most effectual course to bring upon our own heads; as thos do who think by opposing Christ's kingdom, to advance their own worldl interest. The fear of the wicked shall come upon them. The conversio of souls is the gathering of them to Christ as their ruler and refuge and he died to effect this. By dying he purchased them to himself, an the gift of the Holy Ghost for them: his love in dying for believer should unite them closely together.
