The Jews opposing Jesus are outraged at what Jesus said in the previous verse. Here, John implies that they picked up stones in order to kill him by stoning because he had made himself equal to God (See: stone). If it would be helpful to your readers, you could state this explicitly. Alternate translation: “they picked up stones in order to kill him, because he claimed to be equal with God”

τοῦ ἱεροῦ
the temple
Jesus and his Jewish opponents were in the courtyard of the temple. See how you translated temple in 8:14.
8:59 Jesus’ audience finally understood his claim to divinity (8:58), and they were furious. They believed they had heard blasphemy and picked up stones to throw at him, which was the proper legal response (Lev 24:16).
• Jesus was hidden from them because God had appointed a different time for his death (see study note on John 12:23; see also 7:30, 44; Luke 4:29-30).
