John 5:20
_ _ Father loveth ... and showeth him all, etc. — As love has no concealments, so it results from the perfect fellowship and mutual endearment of the Father and the Son (see on John 1:1; see on John 1:18), whose interests are one, even as their nature, that the Father communicates to the Son all His counsels, and what has been thus shown to the Son is by Him executed in His mediatorial character. “With the Father, doing is willing; it is only the Son who acts in Time” [Alford]. Three things here are clear: (1) The personal distinctions in the Godhead. (2) Unity of action among the Persons results from unity of nature. (3) Their oneness of interest is no unconscious or involuntary thing, but a thing of glorious consciousness, will, and love, of which the Persons themselves are the proper Objects.
_ _ show him greater things, etc. — referring to what He goes on to mention (John 5:21-31), comprised in two great words, LIFE and JUDGMENT, which Stier beautifully calls God’s Regalia. Yet these, Christ says, the Father and He do in common. |
John 5:20
The Father showeth him all things that himself doth — A proof of the most intimate unity. And he will show him — By doing them. At the same time (not at different times) the Father showeth and doth, and the Son seeth and doth. Greater works — Jesus oftener terms them works, than signs or wonders, because they were not wonders in his eyes. Ye will marvel — So they did, when he raised Lazarus. |
- the Father:
John 3:35 The Father loveth the Son, and hath given all things into his hand.
John 17:26 And I have declared unto them thy name, and will declare [it]: that the love wherewith thou hast loved me may be in them, and I in them.
Matthew 3:17 And lo a voice from heaven, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.
Matthew 17:5 While he yet spake, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them: and behold a voice out of the cloud, which said, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased; hear ye him.
2 Peter 1:17 For he received from God the Father honour and glory, when there came such a voice to him from the excellent glory, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.

- and showeth:
John 1:18 No man hath seen God at any time; the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared [him].
John 10:32 Jesus answered them, Many good works have I shewed you from my Father; for which of those works do ye stone me?
John 15:15 Henceforth I call you not servants; for the servant knoweth not what his lord doeth: but I have called you friends; for all things that I have heard of my Father I have made known unto you.
Proverbs 8:22-31 The LORD possessed me in the beginning of his way, before his works of old. ... Rejoicing in the habitable part of his earth; and my delights [were] with the sons of men.

John 5:29 And shall come forth; they that have done good, unto the resurrection of life; and they that have done evil, unto the resurrection of damnation.
John 12:45-47 And he that seeth me seeth him that sent me. ... And if any man hear my words, and believe not, I judge him not: for I came not to judge the world, but to save the world.
