📚 Contexto Histórico
In the Gospel of Matthew, this verse is part of the narrative where the chief priests and elders are plotting to arrest and kill Jesus during the time leading up to Passover. They were concerned about maintaining order and their own authority, so they avoided acting during the feast to prevent a potential riot from the crowds who supported Jesus. This reflects the tense political and religious atmosphere in Jerusalem under Roman rule, where Jewish leaders balanced their traditions with the risk of public unrest.
