Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary - John 10:22-38

We have here another rencounter between Christ and the Jews in the temple, in which it is hard to say which is more strange, the gracious words that came out of his mouth or the spiteful ones that came out of theirs. I. We have here the time when this conference was: It was at the feast of dedication, and it was winter, a feast that was annually observed by consent, in remembrance of the dedication of a new altar and the purging of the temple, by Judas Maccabaeus, after the temple had been... read more

William Barclay's Daily Study Bible - John 10:29-30

10:29-30 My Father, who gave them to me, is greater than all; and no one can snatch them from the hand of the Father. I and the Father are one. This passage show's at one and the same time the tremendous trust and the tremendous claim of Jesus. His trust was something which traced everything back to God. He has just been speaking about his sheep and his flock; he has just been saying that no one will ever snatch his own from his hand, that he is the shepherd who will keep the sheep for... read more

William Barclay's Daily Study Bible - John 10:31-39

10:31-39 The Jews again lifted up stones to stone him. Jesus said to them: "I have showed you many lovely deeds, which came from my Father. For which of these deeds are you trying to stone me?" The Jews answered him: "It is not for any lovely deed that we propose to stone you; it is for insulting God, and because you, being a man, make yourself God." "Does it not stand written in your law," Jesus answered them, "'I said you are gods'? If he called those to whom the word came gods--and the... read more

My Father which gave them me ,.... So the sheep came to be Christ's, and to be in his hand; the Father gave them to him, put them into his hands, and made them his care and charge: is greater than all ; than all gods, than all beings, than all creatures, angels and men, and than all the enemies of his people; this must be allowed: the Vulgate Latin version, and so some of the ancients read, "what my Father gave to me, is greater than all"; meaning, that the church given to him, and... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - John 10:30

I and my Father are one. Not in person, for the Father must be a distinct person from the Son, and the Son a distinct person from the Father; and which is further manifest, from the use of the verb plural, "I and my Father", εσμεν , "we are one"; that is, in nature and essence, and perfections, particularly in power; since Christ is speaking of the impossibility of plucking any of the sheep, out of his own and his Father's hands; giving this as a reason for it, their unity of nature,... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - John 10:32

Jesus answered them, many good works ,.... Such as healing the sick, and all manner of diseases; dispossessing devils, cleansing lepers, giving sight to the blind, causing the dumb to speak, the deaf to hear, and the lame to walk; which were not only works of power, but of mercy and beneficence; and therefore are called good works, as well as they were great and miraculous ones: have I showed you from my Father ; which Christ did in the name, and by the command and authority of the... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - John 10:33

The Jews answered him, saying ,.... As follows; for a good work we stone thee not : they could not deny, that he had done many good works; this was too barefaced to be contradicted; yet they cared not to own them; and though they industriously concealed their resentment at them, yet they were very much gravelled and made uneasy by them, but chose to give another reason for their stoning him: but for blasphemy ; which required death by stoning, according to Leviticus 24:16 , and... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - John 10:34

Jesus answered them, is it not written in your law ,.... In the law which was given unto them, of which they boasted, and pretended to understand, and interpret, even in Psalm 82:6 ; for the law includes not only the Pentateuch, but all the books of the Old Testament: it is an observation of one of the Jewish doctors F20 R. Azarias in Meor Enayim, c. 7. fol. 47. 1. , that "with the wise men of blessed memory, it is found in many places that the word law comprehends the Prophets and... read more

John Gills Exposition of the Bible Commentary - John 10:35

If he called them gods, unto whom the word of God came ,.... The Syriac version reads, "because the word of God came to them"; either the divine "Logos", the essential word, the Son of God, who appeared to Moses, and made him a God to Pharaoh, and who appointed rulers and magistrates among the Jews; and who is the King of kings, and Lord of lords, from whom all receive their power and dominion: this sense is favoured by the Ethiopic version, which renders it, "if he called them gods to whom... read more
