But this crowd The term "crowd" here refers to the common people who were present during Jesus' teachings. In the Greek, the word used is "ὄχλος" (ochlos), which often denotes a large group of people, typically those who are not part of the religious elite. Historically, the Pharisees and religious leaders viewed themselves as superior in knowledge and understanding of the law, often looking down upon the general populace. This phrase sets the stage for the Pharisees' disdainful attitude towards those they considered ignorant. that does not know the law is accursed Are cursed.--The writings of the Rabbis are full of scorn and contempt for the untutored multitude, whom they called 'am h??retz, "people of the earth," as opposed to those instructed in the Law, whom they called '?m k?desh, "holy people." These words are an expression of this contempt. Some have supposed that they are meant to express the ban of excommunication, which they use as a weapon of compulsion in John 9:22, but this is quite out of the question as applied here to the multitude. Verse 49. - But this multitude, which knoweth not the Law, are accursed. This is a most contemptuous expression - am-ha-'arez, equivalent to "this scum of the earth," "the unlettered rabble." The Pharisees were accustomed to show sovereign contempt for those who had no admission to their own culture and methods of knowledge. Edersheim and Wunsche quote 'Pes.,' 49, b; 'Baba,' B. 8, b; and 'Chetub.,' 3:6 in proof of the utter inhumanity of their judgments. This language did not endorse a formal excommunication of the multitude - a supposition in its own nature impossible and absurd - but it expressed the brusque and harsh contempt with which the Pharisees then present wished to correct the weak compliance of their own servants. Lange presses the utterance too far. We cannot see in it more than the bitter outburst of their pent-up spite.Parallel Commentaries ...
