10 The Jews therefore said unto him that was cured, It is the sabbath day: it is not lawful for thee to carry thy bed. <\/span><\/em><\/h3>\n

11 He answered them, He that made me whole, the same said unto me, Take up thy bed, and walk. <\/span><\/em><\/h3>\n

12 Then asked they him, What man is that which said unto thee, Take up thy bed, and walk? <\/span><\/em><\/h3>\n

13 And he that was healed wist not who it was: for Jesus had conveyed Himself away, a multitude being in that place. <\/span><\/em><\/h3>\n

14 Afterward Jesus findeth him in the temple, and said unto him, Behold, thou art made whole: sin no more, lest a worse thing come unto thee. <\/span><\/em><\/h3>\n

15 The man departed, and told the Jews that it was Jesus, which had made him whole. <\/span><\/em><\/h3>\n

16 And therefore did the Jews persecute Jesus, and sought to slay Him, because He had done these things on the sabbath day.<\/span><\/em><\/h3>\n

The Jews (Jewish leaders) didn’t care that the man was miraculously healed, only that he carried a blanket on the sabbath. The 39th and last rule in the tradition of the elders (man-made, not from God) was that nothing could be carried on the sabbath.<\/h3>\n

Nehemiah 13:9 and Jeremiah 17:21 mention carrying loads on the sabbath, but both refer to merchandise.<\/h3>\n

conveyed Himself away (v. 13) \u2014 to avoid attention and popular admiration. His moving away may have been done miraculously as in Luke 4:30.<\/h3>\n

lest a worse thing come unto thee (v. 14) \u2014 Likely, the man’s affliction was the result of a sin he had indulged in.<\/h3>\n

I think the elders knew who Jesus was and that they were upset, not that He broke the sabbath but, that He revealed that their rules and their “holiness” were hogwash.<\/h3>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
