Contextual Overview

¹ After these things, there was a feast of the Jews, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem. ² And at Jerusalem is a pool at the Sheep Gate which is called in Hebrew, Bethesda, having five porches. ³ In these was a great multitude of the infirm lying, blind ones, lame ones, withered ones, awaiting the stirring of the water. ⁴ For an angel at a certain time descended in the pool and agitated the water. Then the one first entering after the agitation of the water became well, whatever disease he was held by. ⁵ But a certain man was there, being in infirmity thirty eight years. ⁶ Seeing him lying, and knowing that he had already spent much time, Jesus said to him, Do you desire to become well? ⁷ The infirm one answered Him, Lord, I do not have a man, that when the water is agitated he may throw me into the pool; but while I am coming, another goes down before me. ⁸ Jesus said to him, Rise up, Take up your cot and walk! ⁹ And instantly the man became well, and took up his cot and walked. And it was a sabbath that day. ¹⁰ Then the Jews said to the one having been healed, It is a sabbath. It is not lawful for you to lift up the cot.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

The man departed,.... From Christ, and from the temple, not through displeasure, or as resenting what was said to him, but as highly delighted that he had found his kind benefactor and physician; and went either to Bethesda, where the miracle was wrought, and where a multitude of people were, and where he might expect to find some of the persons that had questioned him about carrying his bed, and who it was that bid him do it; or rather to the sanhedrim; see John 5:33 compared with John 1:19;

and told the Jews; the members of that great council, the chief priests, "scribes", and elders, whose business it was to judge of a prophet, and of anyone that should set up for the Messiah:

that it was Jesus; of Nazareth, of whom so much talk was about his doctrines and miracles, and who was thought to be the Messiah:

which had made him whole; this he did, not out of any ill will to Christ, with any bad design upon him, to impeach and accuse him as a violator of the sabbath, for what he had said and done to him; for this would have been most ungrateful, and even barbarous, brutish, and diabolical; but with a good intention, that Jesus might have the glory of the cure, and that others of his fellow creatures in distress might know where, and from whom to have relief; and chiefly that the sanhedrim might be induced hereby to believe that Jesus was the Messiah, and to declare and patronize him as such: and that his end was good, is clear from this, that he does not say it was Jesus that bid him take up his bed and walk, which was what the Jews cavilled at, not caring to hear of the cure; but that made him whole: he observes the miracle to them with a grateful spirit, to the honour of his physician, and that he might be thought to be what he really was.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse John 5:15. The man departed, and told the Jews — He did not say it was Jesus who had ordered him to carry his bed, but it was Jesus who had cured him; and he left them to draw the inference, viz. That this Jesus must be the miraculous power of God.
