John 1:14-17

John Trapp Complete Commentary - John 1:15

15 John bare witness of him, and cried, saying, This was he of whom I spake, He that cometh after me is preferred before me: for he was before me. Ver. 15. John cried, saying ] He entered upon his calling in the year of Jubilee, which was wont to be published by the voice of a crier, with the sound of a trumpet. And hitherto allude the prophets and evangelists, that say he cried, and call him, "the voice of a crier." read more

John Trapp Complete Commentary - John 1:16

16 And of his fulness have all we received, and grace for grace. Ver. 16. Of his fulness ] Which is both repletive and diffusive; not only of plenty, but of bounty; not a fulness of abundance only, but of redundance too. In Christians is plenitudo vasis; abundance of vessels, but in Christ, fontis: is the fount, these differ (say the schoolmen) ut ignis, et ignita, as fire and that which holds the fire. Take a drop from the ocean, and it is so much the less; but the fulness of the fire... read more

John Trapp Complete Commentary - John 1:17

17 For the law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ. Ver. 17. For the law, &c. ] Lex iubet, gratia iuvat. Petamus ut det, quod ut habeamus iubet, The law command, grace assists. Let us ask that he may give, that we have what he commands, saith Augustine. We have his promise ever going along with his precept. The covenant of grace turns precepts into promises, and the Spirit of grace turns both into prayers. read more

Wesley's Explanatory Notes - John 1:14

And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.Flesh sometimes signifies corrupt nature; sometimes the body; sometimes, as here, the whole man.We beheld his glory — We his apostles, particularly Peter, James, and John, Luke 9:32.Grace and truth — We are all by nature liars and children of wrath, to whom both grace and truth are unknown. But we are made partakers of them, when we are accepted... read more

Wesley's Explanatory Notes - John 1:15

John bare witness of him, and cried, saying, This was he of whom I spake, He that cometh after me is preferred before me: for he was before me.John cried — With joy and confidence; This is he of whom I said - John had said this before our Lord's baptism, although he then knew him not in person: he knew him first at his baptism, and afterward cried, This is he of whom I said. etc.He is preferred before me — in his office: for he was before me - in his nature. read more
