John 1:36 Meaning and Commentary

John 1:36

And looking upon Jesus as he walked
Either by them; or as he was going from them to his lodgings; it being toward the close of the day, when John had finished his work for that day, and the people were departing home: John fixed his eyes intently on Christ, with great pleasure and delight, and pointing at him,

he saith, behold the Lamb of God;
as in ( John 1:29 ) , where it is added, "which taketh away the sin of the world"; and which the Ethiopic version subjoins here.

34 And I have seen and borne witness that this is the Son of God."
35 The next day, Yochanan was again standing with two of his talmidim.
36 On seeing Yeshua walking by, he said, "Look! God's lamb!"
37 His two talmidim heard him speaking, and they followed Yeshua.
38 Yeshua turned and saw them following him, and he asked them, "What are you looking for?" They said to him, "Rabbi!" (which means "Teacher!") "Where are you staying?"
