At that very hour This phrase indicates a specific moment in time, suggesting urgency and immediacy. It connects to the preceding context where Jesus is teaching and performing miracles, emphasizing the ongoing tension between His ministry and the opposition He faces. some Pharisees came to Jesus and told Him, “Leave this place and get away because Herod wants to kill You.” Persons / Places / Events 1. PhariseesA religious group in Judaism known for strict adherence to the Law and traditions. In this passage, they warn Jesus about Herod's intentions. 2. Jesus The central figure of the New Testament, the Son of God, who is teaching and performing miracles during His ministry. 3. Herod Refers to Herod Antipas, the tetrarch of Galilee and Perea, known for his political cunning and moral corruption. He is the same Herod who had John the Baptist beheaded. 4. The Place While not specified in this verse, Jesus is likely in the region of Perea or Galilee, areas under Herod's jurisdiction. 5. The Event The Pharisees warn Jesus of Herod's intent to kill Him, which reflects the political and religious tensions of the time. Teaching Points Courage in the Face of ThreatsJesus exemplifies courage and steadfastness, knowing His mission and trusting in God's timing despite threats. Discernment of Motives The Pharisees' warning may not be purely out of concern. Believers should discern the motives behind advice or warnings from others. God's Sovereignty Over Human Plans Despite Herod's intentions, God's plan for Jesus' ministry and ultimate sacrifice was not thwarted. Trust in God's sovereignty is crucial. The Cost of Discipleship Following Jesus may involve facing opposition and threats. Believers are called to remain faithful amidst challenges. The Role of Political Power Herod's threat illustrates the misuse of political power against God's purposes. Believers should pray for leaders and seek justice.(31) Herod will kill thee.--This is the only intimation of such a purpose, and it is, of course, a question whether the Pharisees reported what they actually knew, out of feelings more or less friendly to our Lord, or invented a false tale in order that they might get rid of His presence among them, or were sent by Herod to announce his purpose as a threat that he might be rid of it. Our Lord's answer, "Go tell that fox . . .," points to the last of these views as the most probable. It is true that in Luke 23:8, we are told that Herod "had desired to see Him of a long season;" but oscillations of vague curiosity and vague fears were quite in keeping with the Tetrarch's character. Accepting the conclusion suggested in the Note on Luke 13:22, that we have here a record of our Lord's Peraean ministry, we may probably connect the message with the fact that His journeys had brought Him near Machaerus, where John had been imprisoned, and in which was one of Herod's most stately palaces (Jos. Wars, vii. 6). Thence the Pharisees may have come with a threat, in which we may possibly trace the hand of Herodias, and which, at least, reminds us of the message sent by Jezebel to Elijah (1Kings 19:2). St. Luke's knowledge of the incident may have been derived from Manaen; or, as Machaerus was famous for hot medicinal springs, and for herbs that had a widespread fame for special virtues (Josephus, as above), it may have been one of the places to which he was attracted by his pursuits as a physician. (See Introduction.)Verses 31-35. - The message of Jesus to Herod Antipas, and the lament over the loved city of Jerusalem, the destined place of his own death. Verse 31. - The same day there came certain of the Pharisees, saying unto him, Get thee out, and depart hence: for Herod will kill thee. Very many of the older authorities read here, instead of "tile same day," "in that very hour." This incident connected with Herod Antipas, which is only related by St. Luke, not improbably was communicated to Luke and Paul by Manaen, who was intimately connected with that prince, and who was a prominent member of the primitive Church of Antioch in those days when Paul was beginning his work for the cause (see Acts 13:1). This curious message probably emanated from Herod and Herodias. The tetrarch was disturbed and uneasy at the Lord's continued presence in his dominions, and the crowds who thronged to hear the great Teacher occasioned the jealous and timorous prince grave disquietude. Herod shrank from laying hands on him, though, for the memory of the murdered friend of Jesus was a terrible one, we know, to the superstitious tetrarch, and he dreaded being forced into a repetition of the judicial murder of John the Baptist. It is likely enough that the enemies of the Lord were now anxious for him to go to Jerusalem and its neighbourhood, where he would be in the power of the Sadducean hierarchy, and away from the protection of the Galilaean multitudes, with whom his influence was still very great. The Pharisees, who as a party hated the Master, willingly entered into the design, and under the mask of a pretended friendship warned him of Herod's intentions. Parallel Commentaries ...
