The New John Gill Exposition of the Entire Bible Mark 11:32
But if we shall say, of men… That John's baptism was
an human invention, and he had no authority from God to preach and
administer it,
they feared the people; lest being enraged thereby they should, at
once, rise up, and destroy them:
for all men counted John, that he was a prophet indeed; a real
prophet, one truly sent from God, and had his commission and
credentials from him: this was the general sentiment of the people;
(See Gill on 21:26).
