People's Commentary (NT)
John 5:10
The Jews. This phrase does not refer to the people, but to the
authorities. John always uses it to signify, not the multitude, but the
rulers.
Therefore points to the fact that he was carrying his bed on the
Sabbath day.
Said unto him. The man was officially stopped and questioned. The
bearing of burdens on the Sabbath was forbidden, not only by Jewish
tradition, but by the law. See Exodus 31:13 Jer 17:21 Ne 13:15-19.
