John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - John 5:22

For the Father judgeth no man ,.... That is, without the Son; which is another proof of their equality: for that he does judge is certain; he is the Judge of the whole earth; he is God that judgeth in the earth, or governs the world with his Son, who works together in the affairs of providence: he judged and condemned the old world, but not without his Son, who by his Spirit, or in his divine nature, went and preached to the spirits now in prison, then disobedient in the times of Noah; he... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - John 5:23

That all men should honour the Son ,.... This is the end of all judgment, and the exercise of all authority, and power being committed to him; namely, that he might have the honour given him by men that is due unto him: even as they honour the Father ; that the same honour and glory may be given to the one, as to the other, which must never have been done was he not equal with him, since he gives not his glory to another, Isaiah 42:8 . Indeed, all men do not honour the Father as they... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - John 5:24

Verily verily, I say unto you ,.... Who am the Amen, the true and faithful witness: he that heareth my word ; by which is meant the Gospel, and is so called, both because it is spoken by Christ, and first began to be spoken by him; and because he is spoken of in it; his person, office, and work, peace, pardon, righteousness, life, and salvation by him, being the sum and substance of it: and by "hearing" it is meant, not a bare external hearing it; for so it may be heard, and not... read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - John 5:16

And sought to slay him - This clause is omitted by BCDL, some others, and several ancient versions. Griesbach has left it out of the text; and Professor White says, certissime delenda : but it does not appear to me that it should be omitted. However, it was true of the Jews, whether the words were originally in the evangelist or not. For what cause did these persons seek to destroy our Lord? Because he had healed a poor man, who had been diseased thirty-eight years, and ordered him to... read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - John 5:17

My Father worked hitherto, and I work - Or, As my Father worketh until now, etc., καθως being understood. God created the world in six days: on the seventh he rested from all creating acts, and set it apart to be an everlasting memorial of his work. But, though he rested from creating, he never ceased from preserving and governing that which he had formed: in this respect he can keep no sabbaths; for nothing can continue to exist, or answer the end proposed by the Divine wisdom and... read more

Adam Clarke's Commentary on the Bible - John 5:18

Making himself equal with God - This the Jews understood from the preceding verse: nor did they take a wrong meaning out of our Lord's words; for he plainly stated that, whatever was the Father's work, his was the same; thus showing that He and the Father were One. They had now found out two pretenses to take away his life: one was that he had broken the Sabbath - ελυε , dissolved, as they pretended, the obligation of keeping it holy. The other was that he was guilty of blasphemy, in... read more

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'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'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
