John 5:16

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon

Read in KJV Bible Reader

John 5:16. And therefore did the Jews persecute Jesus, and sought to slay him, because he had done these things on the sabbath day.

This was a mere pretense, an idle excuse for their enmity. They not only hated Christ; but they must besmear him with their calumnies, and make him out to be an evil-doer although he was goodness itself.
