John 14:6Jesus said unto him, I am the Way, the Truth, and the LifeBrief expositionsThe way of a holy conversation; the truth of a heavenly doctrine; the life of a bliss everlasting (Leo).The way to beginners, the truth to the progressing (chap. 8:32), the life to the perfect (Ferus). I am the Way, leading to the truth; I am the Truth, promising life; I am the Life, which I give (St. Augustine). I am the Way and the Life; the way on earth, the life in heaven: I am He, to whom you go; I am He,... read more

John Trapp Complete Commentary - John 14:3

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. Ver. 3. I will come again, &c. ] Oh, look up and long for this "consolation of Israel;" say as Sisera’s mother, "Why are his chariots" (those clouds) "so long in coming?" " Heu pietas ubi prisca? profana o tempora! Mundi Fax! Vesper! prope Nox! o mora! Christe veni. " There may ye be also ] Christ counts not himself full till he have all his members about... read more

John Trapp Complete Commentary - John 14:4

4 And whither I go ye know, and the way ye know. Ver. 4. And whither I go ye know ] Some little knowledge they had, such as Thomas in the next verse denies to be any at all; yet Christ acknowledgeth it. The tenor of the new covenant requires no set measures of grace. The first springings in the womb of grace are precious before God, Ephesians 2:1 ; he blesseth our buds, Isaiah 61:11 , and in our dunghill of ignorance can find out his own part of knowledge, as here. read more

John Trapp Complete Commentary - John 14:5

5 Thomas saith unto him, Lord, we know not whither thou goest; and how can we know the way? Ver. 5. Lord, we know not whither thou goest, &c. ] No, Thomas? what, are ye also ignorant? They knew, but knew not that they knew: their knowledge was yet but confused and indistinct; they saw men, but as it were walking like trees, till their eyes were better anointed with the eye-salve of the Spirit. A man (saith Gataker) may have grace, and yet not know it (as the embryo hath life, and yet... read more

John Trapp Complete Commentary - John 14:6

6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. Ver. 6. I am the way, and the truth, &c. ] As if he should say, Thou hast no whither to go but to me, nor which way to go but by me, that thou mayest attain eternal life. Which made Bernard say, Sequemur, Domine, te, per te, ad te: Te quia Veritas, per te quia Via, ad te quia Vita. God, we will follow you, through you, to you: because you are the truth, through you because you are the... read more

John Trapp Complete Commentary - John 14:7

7 If ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also: and from henceforth ye know him, and have seen him. Ver. 7. And from henceforth ye know him ] Or else the more shame for you, having had me (his express image) so long among you. Christians have a privilege above the Church of the Old Testament. The sea about the altar was brazen,1 Kings 7:23; 1 Kings 7:23 , and what eyes could pierce through it? Now, our sea about the throne is glassy, Revelation 4:6 , like the crystal, clearly... read more
