約翰福音 8:24-25 RCUVTS

The Pulpit Commentary - John 8:21-25

A warning to the Jews of the importance of the present hour. It was, probably, in the last day of the feast that our Lord uttered this warning. I. THE SOLEMN ISSUES THAT HUNG UPON HIS CONTINUED SOJOURN WITH THE JEWS . "I go my way, and ye shall seek me, and ye shall die in your sin: whither I go, ye cannot come." 1 . Their rejection of him would close heaven against them. They could not possibly enter into that "rest" on account of their unbelief. 2 . ... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - John 8:24

Therefore I said unto you, Ye shall die in your sins: for if ye shall not have believed that I am ( HE ), ye will die in your sins. This last clause, "for," etc., gives our Lord's reason in full for the terrific fact. It is a virtual reference of the unregenerate, earthly, low-born condition of his hearers to the fact of their unbelief in him. This fleshly, worldly state may be, might be, reversed by their faith in his essential character, an adequate moral surrender to his claims. Let... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - John 8:25

Then said they to him —the hostile Jerusalem party—in scornful mockery, σὺ τίς εἶ ; Who art thou? "Define thyself more closely; make thy claims clear and categorical. Give now a direct answer to a plain question." It is very remarkable that the Lord often refuses to respond in the precise form in which his interlocutors demand an answer. He sees the multitudinous sides of every truth, and frequently gives to his questioners the means of answering their question from the ground of... read more

The Pulpit Commentary - John 8:25

"Who art thou?" The startling and authoritative language in which the Lord Jesus, in conversation and discussion with the unfriendly Jews of Jerusalem, spoke both of himself and of them, not unnaturally prompted this blunt yet pertinent inquiry. I. THE QUESTION . The spirit in which this inquiry is urged makes all the difference as to the light in which it must be regarded. 1 . It may be a spirit of mere idle curiosity. 2 . It may be a spirit of historical inquiry, such as... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - John 8:25

Who art thou? - As Jesus did not expressly say in the previous verse that he was the Messiah, they professed still not to understand him. In great contempt, therefore, they asked him who he was. As if they had said, “Who art thou that undertakest to threaten us in this manner!” When we remember that they regarded him as a mere pretender from Galilee; that he was poor and without friends; and that he was persecuted by those in authority, we cannot but admire the patience with which all this was... read more

Joseph Benson's Commentary of the Old and New Testaments - John 8:22-24

John 8:22-24. Then said the Jews Showing at once the great perverseness of their disposition, and their contempt of his declaration; will he kill himself? &c. Thus they made a jest of his threatening, and instead of trembling at his word, turned it into ridicule. He said, Ye are from beneath The slaves of earth, and the heirs of hell; I am from above I am from heaven, and shall quickly return thither; ye are of this world And your treasure and hearts are here; I am not of this... read more

John 8:25-27. Then said they, Who art thou? This question they ask in derision, and not with any desire to be instructed. And Jesus saith, Even the same that I said unto you from the beginning Namely, of my public ministry, or from the time I first spake to you. Or, as Whitby renders it, I am what I before told you I was; a sense of the expression, την αρχην , (here rendered, from the beginning,) which he justifies by several passages of the Septuagint, particularly Genesis 13:4;... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - John 8:21-30

90. Belief and unbelief (John 8:21-30)Because the Jews could never get their minds above earthly things, they could never accept Jesus’ claim that he came from God. By rejecting him they lost all chance of having their sins forgiven. They would die in their sins and thereby be excluded from heaven, the place to which Jesus would return after his death and resurrection (John 8:21-26).Most of the people still did not understand how Jesus could be the Son of God, but one day in the near future... read more
