Jean 5:11 Meaning and Commentary

John 5:11

He answered them
That is, the impotent man, who was now made whole, replied to the Jews:

he that made me whole, the same said unto me, take up thy bed and
walk;
intimating, that he that had such divine power, as to make him whole, had power to dispense with the sabbath, and such an action on it; and that his word was warrant and authority sufficient, to support him in what he did; for he that had wrought this cure for him, he concluded must be from God; was at least a great prophet, and to be hearkened to and obeyed, in one thing as well as another.

Jean 5:11 In-Context

9 Aussitôt cet homme fut guéri; il prit son lit, et marcha. C'était un jour de sabbat.

10 Les Juifs dirent donc à celui qui avait été guéri: C'est le sabbat; il ne t'est pas permis d'emporter ton lit.

11 Il leur répondit: Celui qui m'a guéri m'a dit: Prends ton lit, et marche.

12 Ils lui demandèrent: Qui est l'homme qui t'a dit: Prends ton lit, et marche?

13 Mais celui qui avait été guéri ne savait pas qui c'était; car Jésus avait disparu de la foule qui était en ce lieu.
