John 8:34-35
_ _ Whosoever committeth sin — that is, liveth in the commission of it — (Compare 1 John 3:8; Matthew 7:23).
_ _ is the servant of sin — that is, the bond-servant, or slave of it; for the question is not about free service, but who are in bondage. (Compare 2 Peter 2:19; Revelation 6:16). The great truth here expressed was not unknown to heathen moralists; but it was applied only to vice, for they were total strangers to what in revealed religion is called sin. The thought of slaves and freemen in the house suggests to our Lord a wider idea. |
John 8:34
Jesus answered — Each branch of their objection, first concerning freedom, then concerning their being Abraham's offspring, John 8:37, &c. He that committeth sin, is, in fact, the slave of sin. |
