ヨハネの福音書 5:19-30 JCB

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - John 5:26

For as the Father hath life in himself ,.... Is the living God, the fountain of life, and is the author of life to all living creatures; or rather has eternal life in his mind, his heart, his counsel, and his covenant, and in his hands, for all his chosen ones, which seems to he the peculiar sense here: so hath he given to the Son to have life in himself ; he hath not only made the purpose of it in him, and given the promise of it to him; but even eternal life itself, he has put into his... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - John 5:27

And hath given him authority to execute judgment also ,.... Both in his church and kingdom, in the present state of things, and at the last day, when all shall stand before his judgment seat: and that because he is the son of man ; truly and properly man; because though he was in the form of God, and equal to him, yet became man, and was in the form of a servant: and so reads the Ethiopic version, "because the Son of God is the son of man"; and therefore the authority of executing... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - John 5:28

Marvel not at this ,.... Either at the cure of the man that had been diseased thirty and eight years, as some think; or at the Son of God being also the son of man, as the Syriac version suggests; or rather at the dead hearing the voice of the Son of God, and living upon it; and at his having authority to execute judgment upon all, to govern and defend his own church and people, and in the last day acquit them, and to take vengeance on his and their enemies, both now and hereafter: for... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - John 5:29

And shall come forth ,.... Out of their graves, as Lazarus came forth from his at the word of command, and as the bodies of the saints did after the resurrection of Christ, when their graves were opened: they that have done good ; which none of Adam's posterity naturally do, or can do of themselves: such are designed here who believe in Christ, which to do is the work of God, and the greatest and best of worlds; and without which it is impossible to please God in any; and indeed,... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - John 5:30

I can of mine own self do nothing ,.... This is the conclusion of the matter, the winding up of the several arguments concerning the Son's equality to the Father, and the application of the whole to Christ. He had before been chiefly speaking of the Son, in relation to the Father, as if he was a third person; but now he applies what he had said of the Son to himself: and it is as if he had said, I am the Son that can do nothing separate from the Father, and contrary to his will, but do all... read more

Adam Clarke

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - John 5:19

The Son can do nothing of himself - Because of his inseparable union with the Father: nor can the Father do any thing of himself, because of his infinite unity with the Son. What things soever he doeth, these also doeth the Son - God does nothing but what Christ does. What God does is the work of God, and proper to no creature - Jesus does whatsoever God does, and therefore is no created being. The Son can do nothing but what he sees the Father do: now, any intelligent creature may do... read more

Adam Clarke

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - John 5:20

Greater works than these - Two of these he immediately mentions: Raising the dead, John 5:21 . And judging the world, John 5:22 . That ye may marvel - Or, So as to make you wonder. Our Lord sometimes speaks of himself as God, and sometimes as the ambassador of God. As he had a human and Divine nature, this distinction was essentially necessary. Many errors have originated from want of attention to this circumstance. read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - John 5:21

As the Father raised up the dead - This he did in the case of the widow's son at Sarepta, 1 Kings 17:22 , by the ministry of the Prophet Elijah. And again, in the case of the Shunamite's son, 2 Kings 4:32-35 , by the ministry of the Prophet Elisha. The Son quickeneth whom he will - He raiseth from death to life whomsoever he pleases. So he did, for he raised the ruler's daughter, Mark 5:35-42 ; the widow's son at Nain, Luke 7:11-15 ; and Lazarus, at Bethany, John 11:14-44. Whom... read more

Adam Clarke

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - John 5:22

The Father judgeth no man - This confirms what he had said before, John 5:17 , John 5:19 , that the Father acts not without the Son, nor the Son without the Father; their acts are common, their power equal. read more

Adam Clarke

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - John 5:23

That all men should honor the Son, etc. - If then the Son is to be honored, Even As the Father is honored, then the Son must be God, as receiving that worship which belongs to God alone. To worship any creature is idolatry: Christ is to be honored even as the Father is honored; therefore Christ is not a creature; and, if not a creature, consequently the Creator. See John 1:3 . He that honoureth not the Son - God will not receive that man's adoration who refuses to honor Jesus, even as... read more
