Juan 8:25 Meaning and Commentary

John 8:25

Then said they unto him, who art thou?
&c.] That talks at this rate, and threatens with death, in case of unbelief; this they said with an haughty air, and in a scornful manner:

and Jesus saith unto them, even [the same] that I said unto you from
the beginning;
meaning, either of this discourse, as that he was the light of the world, and which he continued to assert; or of his being had before the sanhedrim, when he affirmed that God was his Father, and by many strong arguments proved his divine sonship; or of his ministry, when by miracles, as well as doctrines, he made it to appear that he was he that was to come, the true Messiah; or who spake from the beginning to Moses, saying, I am that I am, hath sent thee, and to the church, and Jewish fathers in the wilderness; and who is that word that was from the beginning with God; and who is called the beginning, the first cause of all things, and of the creation of God; and some think this is intended here.

Juan 8:25 In-Context

23 Y decíales: Vosotros sois de abajo, yo soy de arriba; vosotros sois de este mundo, yo no soy de este mundo.

24 Por eso os dije que moriréis en vuestros pecados: porque si no creyereis que yo soy, en vuestros pecados moriréis.

25 Y decíanle: ¿Tú quién eres? Entonces Jesús les dijo: El que al principio también os he dicho.

26 Muchas cosas tengo que decir y juzgar de vosotros: mas el que me envió, es verdadero: y yo, lo que he oído de él, esto hablo en el mundo.

27 Mas no entendieron que él les hablaba del Padre.
