With such amazing miracles, you might think that Jesus was popular. He was with humble people seeking authentic truth. Alas, the religious leaders only sought to retain their power and position over the people – they saw themselves as guardians of Israel while under Roman occupation (John 11:48). However, it was obvious that Jesus had authority and power which they lacked. He could heal, cast out demons and preach in such a way that people knew that God was speaking to them. So the religious establishment was bitterly envious and wanted to kill Him (Matthew 27:18).
