The seven days; either,
1. After his coming to Jerusalem; or rather,
2. Of his vow; for it is thought that his vow of separation was but for seven days; or:
3. The seven days of that feast of Pentecost which he came unto. The Jews which were of Asia; who were implacably set against him wheresoever he went, as Acts 14:19, Acts 17:5. These Jews dwelt at Ephesus and elsewhere, but were come to observe the feast at Jerusalem. Laid hands on him; by violence, and against law.
