1925. It was narrated from Muḥammad that a funeral passed by Al-Hasan bin 'Alî and Ibn 'Abbâs. Al-Hasan stood up but Ibn 'Abbâs did not. Al-Hasan said: 'Didn't the Messenger of Allâh ﷺ stand up for the funeral of a Jew?' Ibn 'Abbâs said: 'Yes, then he sat down.'" (Sahîh)

The gist of the statement of Ibn 'Abbâs ﷺ is that the same thing happened later. Someone's Janazah passed by, but he stayed sitting. Even so, to keep sitting is also permitted. But the verbal narrations could only be abrogated by a verbal Hadîth.
