VERSE (20) -
1Ch 9:26 Mt 27:6 Mr 12:41,43

SEV Biblia, Chapter 8:20

Estas palabras habl Jess en el lugar de las limosnas, enseando en el Templo; y nadie le prendi; porque an no había venido su hora.

Clarke's Bible Commentary - John 8:20

Verse 20. The treasury] Lightfoot observes, from the rabbins, that the treasury was in what was called the court of the women-that there were thirteen chests in it; in the thirteenth only the women were permitted to put their offerings. Probably the other twelve were placed there in reference to the twelve
tribes; each perhaps inscribed with the name of one of Jacob's twelve sons.

It seems that our Lord sometimes sat in this court to teach the people. See Mark xii. 41, &c.

His hour was not yet come.] The time was not arrived, in which he had determined to give himself up into the hands of his crucifiers.


John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 20. These words spake Jesus in the treasury , etc.] The place where the thirteen chests stood, into which the people put their voluntary contributions for the sacrifices, and service of the temple: the Ethiopic version renders it, at the alms chest; (see Gill on Mark 12:41). The design of this observation of the evangelist, is to suggest to us, that it was in a very public place, in the temple, openiy, that Christ delivered the above words: as he taught in the temple ; where the Jews resorted, where his ministry was public, and he spake freely, and without reserve; in a very bold manner, with intrepidity, and without fear of man: and no man laid hands on him ; though they had sought to do it the day before; had sent officers to take him; and they themselves had a good will to it; and yet they were so awed and over ruled by one means, or one account or another, that no man did it; the reason was, for his hour was not yet come ; the time appointed for his sufferings and death.

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 17-20 - If we knew
Christ better, we should know the Father better. Thos become vain in their imaginations concerning God, who will not learn of Christ. Those who know not his glory and grace, know not the Fathe that sent him. The time of our departure out of the world, depends upo God. Our enemies cannot hasten it any sooner, nor can our friends dela it any longer, than the time appointed of the Father. Every tru believer can look up and say with pleasure, My times are in thy hand and better there than in my own. To all God's purposes there is a time.

Vincent's NT Word Studies

20. The Treasury (gazofulakiw). From gaza,
treasure, a Persian word, occurring only once in the New Testament (Acts viii. 27), and fulakh, guard. Used by John only here. The Treasury was in the Court of the Women, so called, not because it was appropriated to the worship of women exclusively, but because they were not allowed to proceed further, except for sacrificial purposes. The court covered a space upwards of two hundred feet square, and was surrounded by a colonnade, within which, and against the wall, were the thirteen trumpet-shaped chests, called "trumpets" from their shape, for charitable contributions. This court was the most public part of the temple.

And no man laid hands on Him (kai oudeiv epiasen auton). Notice the connection with the previous sentence by the simple and, where another writer would have said and yet: the sense being that though Jesus was teaching where He might easily have been apprehended, yet no one attempted to arrest Him. See on i. 10. Laid hands on is better rendered, as elsewhere, took (compare vii. 30). The inconsistency of the A.V. in the renderings of the same word, of which this is only one of many instances, is noteworthy here from the fact that in the only two passages in which John uses the phrase laid hands on (vii. 30; vii. 44), he employs the common formula, ejpiballein tav ceirav, or thn ceira, and in both these passages the word piasai is rendered take. The use of this latter word is confined almost exclusively to John, as it is found only three times elsewhere (Acts iii. 7; xii. 4; 2 Cor. xi. 32).
