Verse 25
there: John 20:30, John 20:31, Job 26:14, Psalms 40:5, Psalms 71:15, Ecclesiastes 12:12, Matthew 11:5, Acts 10:38, Acts 20:35, Hebrews 11:32
that even: This is a very strong eastern expression to represent the number of miracles which Jesus wrought. But however strong and strange it may appear to us of the western world, we find sacred and other authors using hyperboles of the like kind and signification. See Numbers 13:33, Deuteronomy 1:28, Daniel 4:11, Ecclesiastes 1:15. Basnage gives a very similar hyperbole taken from the Jewish writers, in which Jochanan is said to have "composed such a great number of precepts and lessons, that if the heavens were paper, and all the trees of the forest so many pens, and all the children of men so many scribes, they would not suffice to write all his lessons." Amos 7:10, Matthew 19:24
Reciprocal: Acts 1:3 - he showed Acts 2:40 - with Acts 10:41 - Not 1 Corinthians 14:16 - Amen Revelation 22:20 - Amen
