I was daily with you in the temple, etc..] That is, for several days past; ever since he made his public entry into Jerusalem: teaching; the people, in a public manner: and ye took me not; did not attempt to lay hands on him, seize him, and carry him away; which he signifies might have been easily done; (see Gill on “<402655>Matthew 26:55”). But the Scriptures must be fulfilled: which spoke of the betraying him by Judas; and of their taking him in this private and secret manner; and of the flight of the disciples from him next mentioned; (see Gill on “<402656>Matthew 26:56”).
