Johannes 8:30 Meaning and Commentary

John 8:30

As he spake these words
Concerning his being lifted up, or his crucifixion, and the knowledge the Jews should then have of him; of the excellency and divinity of his doctrine, of his mission from the Father, and of the Father's presence with him, and of his always doing the things that are pleasing in his sight; which were spoken by him with majesty and authority, and came with power:

many believed on him:
as the Son of God, and true Messiah: faith came by hearing; Christ's hearers were of different sorts; some understood him not, and disbelieved, and rejected him; others had their eyes, and their hearts opened, and received him, and his words.

Johannes 8:30 In-Context

28 Da sprach Jesus zu ihnen: Wenn ihr des Menschen Sohn erhöhen werdet, dann werdet ihr erkennen, daß ich es sei und nichts von mir selber tue, sondern wie mich mein Vater gelehrt hat, so rede ich.
29 Und der mich gesandt hat, ist mit mir. Der Vater läßt mich nicht allein; denn ich tue allezeit, was ihm gefällt.
30 Da er solches redete, glaubten viele an ihn.
31 Da sprach nun Jesus zu den Juden, die an ihn glaubten: So ihr bleiben werdet an meiner Rede, so seid ihr meine rechten Jünger
32 und werdet die Wahrheit erkennen, und die Wahrheit wird euch frei machen.
