Jamieson, Fausset & Brown, on John 11:47

“The chief priests therefore, and the Pharisees, gathered a council, and said: What do we, for this man doth many miracles?”

“What do we? for this man doeth many miracles--"While we trifle, 'this man,' by His 'many miracles,' will carry all before Him; the popular enthusiasm will bring on a revolution, which will precipitate the Romans upon us, and our all will go down in one common ruin." What a testimony to the reality of our Lord's miracles, and their resistless effect, from His bitterest enemies!”
