Giovanni 12:49

Listen to Giovanni 12:49
49 Perché io non ho parlato di mio; ma il Padre che m’ha mandato, m’ha comandato lui quel che debbo dire e di che debbo ragionare;

Giovanni 12:49 Meaning and Commentary

John 12:49

For I have not spoken of myself
As man, or as separate from his Father; his doctrine was not human, but divine, and therefore a rejection of it cannot escape notice at the future judgment:

but the Father which sent me, he gave me a commandment what I should
say, and what I should speak;
Christ, as man, had his mission, and commission, and his instructions from his Father to preach the Gospel unto men; he was anointed for it by the Holy Ghost; he was enjoined the preaching of it by his Father, and the several doctrines he published were delivered him by him; see ( John 8:28 ) ( 17:8 ) .

Giovanni 12:49 In-Context

47 E se uno ode le mie parole e non le osserva, io non lo giudico; perché io non son venuto a giudicare il mondo, ma a salvare il mondo.
48 Chi mi respinge e non accetta le mie parole, ha chi lo giudica: la parola che ho annunziata è quella che lo giudicherà nell’ultimo giorno.
49 Perché io non ho parlato di mio; ma il Padre che m’ha mandato, m’ha comandato lui quel che debbo dire e di che debbo ragionare;
50 ed io so che il suo comandamento è vita eterna. Le cose dunque che dico, così le dico, come il Padre me le ha dette.
