A
they hated the man that was healed.
B
they were unhappy that He healed the man.
C
He claimed that God His father was still working.
D
He did this on the Sabbath.
Step-by-Step Explanation
The healing at the pool of Bethzatha occurred on the Sabbath, which was a day of rest according to Jewish law. Jesus' actions and His claim that God was still working on the Sabbath challenged the religious leaders' interpretations of the law and authority. This perceived violation and His assertion of a unique relationship with God intensified their hostility towards Him.
