Matthew Poole and continuators on John 11:8

8 His disciples say unto him, Master, the Jews of late sought to stone thee; and goest thou thither again ?

See Chap. 10.31. There were not three months elapsed, since the Iews had so sought to have stoned him; and there was no reason for him to think, that their fury was in any whit abated. We read in the other Evangelists, Matth. 16.22. of other words they used (Peter especially) to disswade our Saviour from this journy to Ierusalem. They were afraid for their Master, and they were afraid also for themselves.
