John 20:30 Meaning and Commentary

John 20:30

And many other signs truly did Jesus
Besides these wonderful appearances to his disciples once and again, when the doors were shut about them: and which signs refer not to what was done before, but after his resurrection; and which he did,

in the presence of his disciples;
for he appeared to, and conversed with no other but them after his resurrection:

which are not written in this book;
of John's Gospel; though they may be elsewhere; such as his appearing to the two disciples going to Emmaus, and to the eleven on a mountain in Galilee, and to five hundred brethren at once, which other inspired writers speak of: and many there are which he did; which are not particularly written in this, nor in any other book; for he was seen of his disciples forty days, and showed himself alive, by many infallible proofs; all of which are not recorded.

John 20:30 In-Context

28 Thomas answered, and said to him, My Lord and my God.
29 Jesus saith to him, Thomas, for thou hast seen me, thou believedest; blessed be they, that saw not, and have believed.
30 And Jesus did many other signs in the sight of his disciples, which be not written in this book. [Forsooth and many other signs Jesus did in the sight of his disciples, the which be not written in this book.]
31 But these be written, that ye believe, that Jesus is Christ, the Son of God, and that ye believing have life in his name.
