John 10:37

37 If I do not do the deeds of my Father, do not believe me.

John 10:37 Meaning and Commentary

John 10:37

If I do not the works of my Father
Not only what the Father had given him to finish, and which he wrought by him as man, but such as were as great as the Father had done, and were equal to them; and which could not be done by any, but by the Father, or by one that is equal with him:

believe me not:
Christ appeals to his miracles as proofs of his deity, sonship, and Messiahship, and desires no other credit than what they demand; see ( Matthew 11:3-5 ) ( John 5:36 ) .

John 10:37 In-Context

35 If he called them 'gods' to whom the word of God came--and the scripture cannot be broken--

36 do you say about [he] whom the Father set apart and sent into the world, 'You are blaspheming,' because I said, 'I am the Son of God'?

37 If I do not do the deeds of my Father, do not believe me.

38 But if I am doing [them], even if you do not believe me, believe the deeds, so that you may know and understand that the Father [is] in me and I [am] in the Father."

39 So they were seeking again to seize him, and he departed out of their hand.
