It’s also written in your law that the testimony of two people is valid.
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
Christ must not be judged by the ordinary rule that bars a man from witnessing to his own case, because He is no private man attending to His own affairs. He speaks as the Son of God, accommodating Himself to your understanding, and all His doctrine proceeds from His Father, to whom He defers.
AI summary
You neither know Me nor My Father. Your ignorance of Me proves your ignorance of Him, though you boast of knowing God. The knowledge of both belongs together; no man can know the Father except through the Son, and whoever has seen Me has seen Him.
