John 8:14
_ _ for I know whence I came, and whither I go, etc. (See on John 7:28). |
John 8:14
Jesus answered and said unto them, (b) Though I bear record of myself, [yet] my record is true: for I know whence I came, and whither I go; but ye cannot tell whence I come, and whither I go.
(b) That which he denied before in (John 5:31) must be understood as Christ granting their position in a way, for in that place he talked of himself somewhat in line with the opinions of his hearers, who acknowledged nothing in Christ but his humanity, and therefore he was content they should not regard his own witness, unless it were otherwise confirmed. But in this place he stands and affirms Godhead, and praises his Father, who is his witness, and agrees with him. |
- yet:
Numbers 12:3 (Now the man Moses [was] very meek, above all the men which [were] upon the face of the earth.) Nehemiah 5:14-19 Moreover from the time that I was appointed to be their governor in the land of Judah, from the twentieth year even unto the two and thirtieth year of Artaxerxes the king, [that is], twelve years, I and my brethren have not eaten the bread of the governor. ... Think upon me, my God, for good, [according] to all that I have done for this people. 2 Corinthians 11:31 The God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, which is blessed for evermore, knoweth that I lie not. 2 Corinthians 12:11 I am become a fool in glorying; ye have compelled me: for I ought to have been commended of you: for in nothing am I behind the very chiefest apostles, though I be nothing. 2 Corinthians 12:19 Again, think ye that we excuse ourselves unto you? we speak before God in Christ: but [we do] all things, dearly beloved, for your edifying.
|
- for:
John 8:42 Jesus said unto them, If God were your Father, ye would love me: for I proceeded forth and came from God; neither came I of myself, but he sent me. John 7:29 But I know him: for I am from him, and he hath sent me. John 10:15 As the Father knoweth me, even so know I the Father: and I lay down my life for the sheep. John 10:36 Say ye of him, whom the Father hath sanctified, and sent into the world, Thou blasphemest; because I said, I am the Son of God? John 13:3 Jesus knowing that the Father had given all things into his hands, and that he was come from God, and went to God; John 14:10 Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works. John 16:28 I came forth from the Father, and am come into the world: again, I leave the world, and go to the Father. John 17:8 For I have given unto them the words which thou gavest me; and they have received [them], and have known surely that I came out from thee, and they have believed that thou didst send me.
|
- but:
John 7:27-28 Howbeit we know this man whence he is: but when Christ cometh, no man knoweth whence he is. ... Then cried Jesus in the temple as he taught, saying, Ye both know me, and ye know whence I am: and I am not come of myself, but he that sent me is true, whom ye know not. John 9:29-30 We know that God spake unto Moses: [as for] this [fellow], we know not from whence he is. ... The man answered and said unto them, Why herein is a marvellous thing, that ye know not from whence he is, and [yet] he hath opened mine eyes.
