john 18:4 Jesus therefore, knowing all things that should come upon him, went forth, and said unto them, Whom seek ye?

john 18:4 Jesus therefore, knowing all the things that were coming upon Him, went forth, and said to them, "Whom do you seek?"

4-9. Jesus . . . knowing all things that should come--were coming.
upon him, went forth--from the shade of the trees, probably, into open view, indicating His sublime preparedness to meet His captors.
Whom seek ye?--partly to prevent a rush of the soldiery upon the disciples [BENGEL]; and see Mr 14:51, 52, as showing a tendency to this: but still more as part of that courage and majesty which so overawed them. He would not wait to be taken.

john 18:4 Jesus therefore, knowing all the things that were coming upon Him, went forth, and said to them, "Whom do you seek?"
