And therefore did the Jews persecute Jesus, and sought to kill him, because he had done these things on the sabbath-day.

Therefore sought they the more to kill him, because he had not only broken the sabbath, but called God his own Father, setting himself on an equality with God.

AND Jesus after these things travelled about in Galilee: for he would not go about in Judea, because the Jews sought to kill him.

The Jews then sought for him at the feast, and said, Where is he?

Then they sought to apprehend him: but no man laid hands on him, because his hour was not yet come.

Then sought they again to apprehend him and he departed out of their reach,

The disciples say unto him, Rabbi, the Jews have just now sought to stone thee; and art thou going thither again?

Then they sought for Jesus, and said one to another, as they stood in the temple, What think ye, that he will not come to the feast?

Upon this Pilate sought to release him: but the Jews clamoured, saying, If thou release this fellow, thou art no friend of Caesar's: every one who professes himself a king, speaks in opposition to Caesar.
