⁴⁵ Then many of the Iewes which came to Marie, and had seene ye thynges which Iesus dyd, beleued on hym. ⁴⁶ But some of them went their wayes to the pharisees, and tolde them what Iesus had done. ⁴⁷ Then gathered the hye priestes and the pharisees a councell, and sayde: What do we? For this man doth many miracles. ⁴⁸ If we let hym scape thus, all men wyll beleue on him, and the Romaynes shall come, and take away both our rowme and the people. ⁴⁹ And one of them named Caiaphas, beyng the hye priest that same yere, sayde vnto them: Ye perceaue nothyng at all, ⁵⁰ Nor consider, that it is expedient for vs, that one man dye for the people, and not that all the people perishe. ⁵¹ This spake he, not of hym selfe, but beyng hye priest that same yere, he prophesied that Iesus shoulde dye for the people, ⁵² And not for the people only: but that he shoulde gather together in one, the chyldren of God, that were scattered abrode. ⁵³ Then from that day foorth, they toke councell together, for to put hym to death. ⁵⁴ Iesus therfore walked no more openlye among the Iewes: but went his way thence, vnto a countrey nye to a wildernesse, into a citie which is called Ephraim, and there continued with his disciples.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Then gathered the chief priests and the Pharisees a council,.... They convened the sanhedrim, the great council of the nation together, of which they were some of the principal members:

and said, what do we? that is, why is nothing done? why are we so dilatory? why do we sit still, and do nothing? or what is to be done? this now lies before us, this is to be considered and deliberated on:

for this man doth many miracles; this is owned, and could not be denied by them; and should have been a reason why they should have acknowledged him to have been the Messiah, and embraced him; whereas they used it as a reason, why they should think of, and concert some measures, to hinder and put a stop to the belief of him as such.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

A council - A meeting of the Sanhedrin, or Great Council of the nation. See the notes at Matthew 2:4. They claimed the right of regulating all the affairs of religion. See the notes at John 1:19.

What do we? - What measures are we taking to arrest the progress of his sentiments?

For this man doeth many miracles - If they admitted that he performed miracles, it was clear what they ought to do. They should have received him as the Messiah. It may be asked, If they really believed that he worked miracles, why did they not believe on him? To this it may be replied that they did not doubt that impostors might work miracles. See Matthew 24:24. To this opinion they were led, probably, by the wonders which the magicians performed in Egypt Exodus 7:0; Exodus 8:0, and by the passage in Deuteronomy 13:1. As they regarded the tendency of the doctrines of Jesus to draw off the people from the worship of God, and from keeping his law John 9:16, they did not suppose themselves bound to follow him, even if he did work miracles.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse 47. Then gathered the chief priests and the Pharisees a council — The Pharisees, as such, had no power to assemble councils; and therefore only those are meant who were scribes or elders of the people, in conjunction with Annas and his son-in-law Caiaphas, who were the high priests here mentioned. See John 18:13; John 18:24.

What do we? — This last miracle was so clear, plain, and incontestable, that they were driven now to their wit's end. Their own spies had come and borne testimony of it. They told them what they had seen, and on their word, as being in league with themselves against Jesus, they could confidently rely.
