ヨハネによる福音書 14:7-8 JC

Expositor's Bible Commentary - John 14:5-7

IX. THE WAY, THE TRUTH, AND THE LIFE."Thomas saith unto Him, Lord, we know not whither Thou goest; how know we the way? Jesus saith unto him, I am the Way, and the Truth, and the Life: no one cometh unto the Father, but by Me. If ye had known Me, ye would have known My Father also: from henceforth ye know Him, and have seen Him."-- John 14:5-7.It surprises us to find that words which have become familiar and most intelligible to us should have been to the Apostles obscure and puzzling.... read more

X. THE FATHER SEEN IN CHRIST."Philip saith unto Him, Lord, show us the Father, and it sufficeth us. Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so longtime with you, and dost thou not know Me, Philip? he that hath seen Me hath seen the Father; how sayest thou, Show us the Father? Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in Me? the words that I say unto you I speak not from Myself: but the Father abiding in Me doeth His works. Believe Me that I am in the Father, and the Father in Me: or... read more

Arno Gaebelein's Annotated Bible - John 14:1-31

CHAPTER 14 1. Let not Your Heart be Troubled! (John 14:1-7 .) 2. I Am in the Father and the Father in Me. (John 14:8-14 .) 3. The Other Comforter Promised. (John 14:15-27 .) 4. I Go unto the Father. (John 14:28-31 .) There is no break between these two chapters. The Lord continues His discourse to the eleven disciples. “Let not your heart be troubled!” What precious words of comfort! How many hearts have been soothed by them and how many tears they have dried! And after His loving words He... read more

Geneva Study Bible - John 14:7

14:7 {e} If ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also: and from henceforth ye know him, and have seen him.(e) It is plain by this verse that to know God and to see God is the same thing. Now whereas he said before that no man saw God at any time, it is to be understood in this way: without Christ, or were it not through Christ, no man could ever see God, nor ever saw God, at any time: for as Chrysostom says, the Son is a very concise and plain setting forth of the Father’s nature to... read more

L. M. Grant's Commentary on the Bible - John 14:1-31

MINISTRY OF ENCOURAGEMENT CENTERED IN CHRIST PERSONALLY (vs.1-6) Had the Lord spoken the last words of chapter 13 with the object of discouraging Peter? By no means. For His next words are "Let not your heart be troubled." Their true protection was in Him personally, not in their own faithfulness. They had faith in God: let them have the same faith in the Lord Jesus. Though Peter himself failed, yet his faith did not fail (Luke 22:32). He certainly thought just as much of the Lord afterward... read more

James Gray's Concise Bible Commentary - John 14:1-31

CENTRAL TEACHING OF JESUS CHRIST The title of this lesson is borrowed from Bernard’s volume on chapters 13-17 inclusive. Others call the chapters the heart of the heart of the Gospel. Commonly chapters 14-16 are known as the farewell discourse to the disciples, which occurred in the same place and on the same occasion as the washing of the disciples’ feet. Indeed there seems to have been two discourses on the occasion, the one limited to chapter 14, and the other to 15 and 16. Chapter 14... read more

The People's Bible by Joseph Parker - John 14:1-31

The Self-revelation of Christ John 14:0 , John 15:0 We cannot understand the opening of the fourteenth chapter unless we read it in immediate connection with the close of the thirteenth. "Peter said unto him, Lord, why cannot I follow thee now? I will lay down my life for thy sake. Jesus answered him, Wilt thou lay down thy life for my sake? Verily, verily, I say unto thee, The cock shall not crow, till thou hast denied me thrice." "Let" notwithstanding all cowardice and recession and... read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - John 14:1-7

Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me. (2) In my Father's house are many mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you, I go to prepare a place for you. (3) And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also. (4) And whither I go ye know, and the way ye know. (5) Thomas saith unto him, Lord, we know not whither thou goest: and how can we know the way? (6) Jesus saith unto him, I am... read more

Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary - John 14:8-15

Philip saith unto him, Lord, shew us the Father, and it sufficeth us. (9) Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me, hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou then, Shew us the Father? (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. (11) Believe me, that I am in the Father, and the... read more

George Haydock

George Haydock's Catholic Bible Commentary - John 14:7

If you know me, you would surely [1] have known my Father also. That is, (says St. John Chrysostom; St. Cyril; &c.) did you know me to be his true, and eternal Son, you would always know him to be the Father from all eternity. And from henceforth, especially from the coming of the Holy Ghost, you shall know him with a more perfect knowledge. And you have seen him, not as to the divine nature: in this manner, you have neither seen him, nor me. But, ===============================... read more
