| Matthew 26:61 | And they said: *This man said, I am able to destroy the temple of God, and after three days to rebuild it. John 2:19. | This man said: I am able to destroy the temple of God. These men that gave this evidence, are called false witnesses. They relate not the true words of Christ; which were not, I can destroy, but destroy you this temple, etc. 2. Christ spoke of the temple of his body, and they of the material temple. 3. It is not unlikely that they made other additions, as well as false constructions, omitted by the evangelists. (Witham) |
