I: 22), alluding to their dulness in apprehending divine truth, and their carnal desire after mere outward manifestations of divine power. They require signs of Christ at least thrice; first, John 2: 18; second, above, 12: 38, ff.; here we have the third. The Pharisees as a body always manifest hostility to the Saviour's holy doctrine. The individuals who appear here, undoubtedly form a different group from those who are presented on the previous occasion (ch. 12); the locality, the accompanying discourses, etc., are different; the Sadducees here unite with them, and the request now either assumes a new form, or is repeated with a distinct specification - the sign must come from heaven. - B. Tempting (see 4: 1, D.); the word is here used as in 19: 3; 22: 18, and John 8: 6). In the latter passage the word is explained by the additional clause: "that they might have ( = be enabled) to accuse Him." The sense then is: They subjected Him to a trial or test, which, as they maliciously hoped, He could not successfully endure. - C.
