And because of this the Jews persecuted Jesus, and sought to kill him, because he did these things on a Sabbath.

Because of this therefore the Jews sought even more to kill him, because not only did he relax the Sabbath, but also he called God his own Father, making himself equal to God.

And after these things Jesus walked in Galilee, for he did not want to walk in Judea, because the Jews sought to kill him.

The Jews therefore sought him at the feast, and said, Where is that man?

They sought therefore to seize him, and yet no man laid a hand on him because his hour had not yet come.

Therefore they sought again to take him, and he went forth out of their hand.

Therefore they sought Jesus, and spoke with each other as they stood in the temple, What does it seem to you? That he will, no, not come to the feast?

From this Pilate sought to release him, but the Jews cried out, saying, If thou release this man, thou are not Caesar's friend. Every man who makes himself a king speaks against Caesar.
