Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - John 5:36

Greater witness - Stronger, more decisive evidence.The works - The miracles - healing the sick and raising the dead.Hath given me - Hath committed to me, or appointed me to do. Certain things he intrusted in his hands to accomplish.To finish - To do or to perform until the task is completed. The word is applied to the “termination” of anything, as we say a task is “ended” or a work is completed. So Jesus said, when he expired, It is “finished” John 19:30. From this it appears that Jesus came to... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - John 5:37

The Father himself ...hath borne witness of me - This God had done,By the miracles which Jesus had performed, and of which he was conversing. At the baptism of Jesus, where he said, “This is my beloved Son,” Matthew 3:17. In the prophecies of the Old Testament. It is not easy to say here to which of these he refers. Perhaps he has reference to all. Ye have neither heard his voice - This difficult passage has been interpreted in various ways. The main design of it seems to be clear - to reprove... read more

Albert Barnes' Notes on the Whole Bible - John 5:38

His word abiding in you - His law does not abide in you - that is, you do not regard or obey it. This was the “third” thing that he charged them with.They had not obeyed the command of God. They had not regarded his manifestations, either in the times of the old dispensation, or now through the Messiah. They did not yield to what he had said in the revelation of the Old Testament. For whom he hath sent - God had foretold that the Messiah would come. He had now given evidence that Jesus was he;... read more

John 5:24-30. Verily, he that heareth my word, &c., hath everlasting life Such a person is already entitled to it, yea, it is already begun in his soul, and he shall shortly possess it in its full perfection: and shall not come into condemnation For any former offences; but is passed from death unto life That is, from that state of spiritual death, or of alienation from the life of God, (see Ephesians 4:18,) in which men naturally are, to spiritual life and felicity, in union and... read more

John 5:31-35. If I bear witness of myself my witness is not true Heylin and Wesley read, is not valid; Doddridge, is not [ to be admitted as ] true; and Campbell, is not to be regarded; observing, “In every country, where there are standing laws, and a regular constitution, there is what is called a forensic, or judicial use of certain words, which differs considerably from familiar use.” Thus the word δικαιος , rendered a just person, (Matthew 27:24,) seems to mean no more than,... read more

John 5:36-38. But I have greater witness than that of John The testimony of one who has infinitely greater authority and power than he; for the works which the Father hath given me to finish The miracles which he hath commissioned me to perform; bear witness of me In a manner most convincing to every unprejudiced mind; that the Father hath sent me As his Ambassador to men, with full authority to reveal his will. And the Father himself hath borne witness of me And that in the most... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - John 5:1-29

IN JERUSALEM AGAIN46. Healing at Bethesda and its outcome (John 5:1-29)Jesus came from Galilee to Jerusalem for a Jewish religious festival. While there he visited a pool where many blind and crippled people hoped to find healing (John 5:1-5). One of the men asked Jesus for help, not to heal him (for he did not know who Jesus was) but to assist him into the pool. Jesus responded by healing him instantly (John 5:6-9). As the healing took place on the Sabbath, the Jewish leaders were anxious to... read more

Bridgeway Bible Commentary - John 5:30-47

47. Witness to Jesus (John 5:30-47)Jesus acted with God’s authority, but he would not give evidence on his own behalf to try to convince the Jews. God was his witness, and Jesus accepted his witness even if the Jews did not (John 5:30-32). With God as his witness, Jesus needed no other, but if the Jews wanted earthly witnesses, they were available. Jesus gave them three, which would satisfy those who wanted to judge him according to the requirements for witnesses under Jewish law (cf.... read more
