Verse John 5:13. Jesus had conveyed himself away] Or, had withdrawn himself. And this he might easily do, as there was a crowd in the place.

He had not yet finished his work, and would not expose himself to the envy and malice of the Jewish rulers.
WIST NOT - Knew not. HAD CONVEYED HIMSELF AWAY - Was lost in the crowd. He had silently mingled with the multitude, or had passed on with the crowd unobserved, and the man had been so rejoiced at his...
