Gill's Notes on the Bible

There was a division therefore again among the Jews,.... As there had been before; see John 7:12.

For these sayings; concerning his being the good shepherd, and laying down his life for the sheep, and having both a power to lay it down, and take it up again.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse John 10:19. There was a division — σχισμα, a schism, a rent. They were divided in their opinions; one part received the light, and the other resisted it.

Again — There was a dissension of this kind before among the same people; see John 9:16.
