Giovanni 8:18

Listen to Giovanni 8:18
18 Io son quel che testimonio di me stesso; e il Padre ancora, che mi ha mandato, testimonia di me.

Giovanni 8:18 Meaning and Commentary

John 8:18

I am one that bear witness of myself
As he does of his sonship, in ( 1 John 5:7 ) .

And the Father that sent me, beareth witness of me;
as he did, by the descent of the Spirit upon him at his baptism, and by a voice from heaven, both at that time, and at his transfiguration, and by the miracles which he wrought; and particularly he bore testimony of him, long before, in prophecy, that he was the light of the world he now said he was, ( Isaiah 42:6 ) ; so that here were two testifiers, his Father and himself; which show them to be two distinct divine persons, and equal to each other: and now if the testimony of two men is true, firm, and authentic, and to be depended upon and received, then much more the testimony of two divine persons; see ( 1 John 5:9 ) .

Giovanni 8:18 In-Context

16 E benchè io giudicassi, il mio giudicio sarebbe verace, perciocchè io non son solo; anzi son io, e il Padre che mi ha mandato.
17 Or anche nella vostra legge è scritto, che la testimonianza di due uomini è verace.
18 Io son quel che testimonio di me stesso; e il Padre ancora, che mi ha mandato, testimonia di me.
19 Laonde essi gli dissero: Ove è il Padre tuo? Gesù rispose: Voi non conoscete nè me, nè il Padre mio; se voi conosceste me, conoscereste ancora il Padre mio.
20 Questi ragionamenti tenne Gesù in quella parte, dov’era la cassa delle offerte, insegnando nel tempio; e niuno lo pigliò, perciocchè la sua ora non era ancora venuta.
