Whoever belongs to God hears the words of God. The reason you do not hear is that you do not belong to God.”
Amid the blazing golden lamps of the treasury at tabernacles, when all Jerusalem danced in joy, Christ proclaims in the most absolute sense: I am the Light of the World. The Baptist was a burning lamp sent to witness to that Light; but He alone is the true Light that lightens every man coming into the world, the Messiah promised of old.

Commenting on John 8:12-59
I speak what I have seen with my Father, not hearsay, not hypothesis, but the exact counterpart of eternal truth itself. You do what you have seen with your father; and since there are but two families in this world, God's and the devil's, your works declare your parentage as plainly as mine declares mine.

Commenting on John 8:38-47
Christ seeks not His own glory; He knows Wisdom is justified of her children, and He committed Himself to God who judgeth righteously. God the Father has His glory at heart, glorified Him on the mount, and will glorify Him again when He raises Him from the dead and spreads His Gospel throughout the world.
