John 10:41

“And many resorted to him, etc.] From all the parts adjacent, having heard of his being there, and of the fame of him; and many of them doubtless personally knew him; these came to him, some very likely to be healed by him, others to see his person and miracles, and others to hear him preach: and said, John did no miracle; though it was now three years ago, yet the name, ministry, and baptism of John, were fresh in the memory of men in those parts; and what they say one to another, was not to lessen the character of John, but to exalt Jesus Christ, and to give a reason why they should receive and embrace him; for if John, who did no miracle, who only taught and baptized, and directed men to…”

“many: Joh 3:26; Mat 4:23-25; Mar 1:37; Luk 5:1, Luk 12:1 John did: Mat 14:2; Luk 7:26-28 but: Joh 1:29, Joh 1:33, Joh 1:34, Joh 3:29-36; Mat 3:11, Mat 3:12; Luk 7:29, Luk 7:30 John 10:42”
