(66) From that time.--The addition of the word "time" has given a definite and questionable meaning to the Greek, which is indefinite.

The actual departure was the result of the teaching, which tested their faith and found it wanting, and was at that time, not gradually from that time onwards. (Comp. Note on John 19:12.)

The very deeds and words that broke some hearts into penitence roused impatient and angry remonstrance in others. There is seen in this Gospel a continual departure and a deepening faith.Parallel Commentaries ...
