Matthew 26:55 meaning and explanation
At that time Jesus said to the crowd, “Have you come out with swords and clubs to arrest Me as you would an outlaw? Every day I sat teaching in the temple courts, and you did not arrest Me.
Matthew 26:55, Berean Standard Bible

The crowd came from the chief priests and elders, and Jesus points out the contradiction: he had taught openly in the temple courts day after day, yet they never arrested him there.
