John 5:16

John 5:16 The Jews persecute Jesus. The word "dioko" is literally rendered "pursued". At once they hunted Jesus and attacked him. And sought to slay him. They did not at first seek to slay him. This is omitted in the Revised Version and does not appear in the old MSS. But the officials now come to Jesus to learn why he has done this act.
