Notes

John 3:34–35

God gives the Spirit without limit: The Father shows his deep love for the Son (3:35). This also shows the divine nature of Jesus. John presents the one God as three persons (compare 1 John 5:5–12).

John 3:27–35

John the Baptist spoke because of two concerns:

Some people questioned whether his baptism was from God (see 1:26), and
his disciples were worried because many people were beginning to follow Jesus instead of John (3:26).

John 3:22–36

John the Baptist says Jesus is truly "from above" (3:31). So, the followers of John need to start following Jesus instead.
