20 For the father loveth the son, and showeth him all things which he doth: and he will show him greater works then these, that you may marvel. 21 For as the father raiseth up the dead, and quickeneth, so the son also quickeneth whom he will. 22 For the father judgeth no man: but he hath given all judgement to the son, 23 That all men may honour the son as they honour the father: he that honoureth not the son, honoureth not the father that sent him. 24 Verily, verily, I say unto you, that he which heareth my words and believeth in him that sent me hath eternal life: and shall not come into judgment.: but hath passed from death to life.
20 For the father loueth the sonne, and sheweth him all things which he doth: and he will shew him greater workes then these, that you may maruel. 21 For as the father rayseth vp the dead, and quickeneth, so the sonne also quickneth whom he will. 22 For the father iudgeth no man: but he hath giuen all iudgement to the sonne, 23 That all men may honour the sonne as they honour the father: hee that honoureth not the sonne, honoureth not the father that sent him. 24 Verily, verily, I say vnto you, that he which heareth my wordes and beleeueth in him that sent me hath eternall life: and shal not come into iudgemen.: but hath passed from death to life.
20 For the father loveth. All men see how hard and far set the exposition of the old writers is. God (say they) loveth himself in his son. But this doth very well belong unto Christ being clothed with the flesh, to be beloved of his father. Yea we know that he was distinguished by this excellent title aswell from angels as from men, This is my well-beloved son. For we know that Christ was elected,1 that in him might be resident the whole love of God that it might flow thence unto us as from a full fountain. For Christ is beloved of God the father as he is the head of the church. He teacheth that this love is the cause why the father worketh all things by his hand. For when he saith that all things are showed unto him, by these words is to be understood the communication or participation: as if he should say, as the father hath poured out his mind into me, so hath he poured into me his power, that in my works y divine glory may appear: so that men can seek no divine thing, which they may not find in me.
