Jesus speaks in the treasury, the most public part of the temple, yet none arrests Him because His hour hasn't come. Divine sovereignty over all circumstances is emphasized repeatedly in John. No human hostility can thwart God's redemptive plan or hasten Christ's death one moment before the appointed time. This provides ultimate assurance for believers.
