Notes

John 14:9

Anyone who has seen Me has seen the Father: Compare 1:1–2. Jesus Christ is God in human body (1:14). This explains his ability to perform divine works. Jesus did not just teach about God, he is God. Jesus's remarkable statement here echoed what he said at the Feast of Dedication (Hanukkah): “I and the Father are one” (10:30). This claim is the reason for the world's opposition to Christ (5:18).

John 14:1–31

Jesus provided answers to his disciples’ many spoken and unspoken concerns.
