John 5:44
How can ye believe, etc.—(See on John 5:40-41). The "will not" of John 5:40, and "cannot" here are just different features of the same awful state of the human heart.
John 5:43-47
if another shall come, etc.—How strikingly has this been verified in the history of the Jews! "From the time of the true Christ to our time, sixty-four false Christs have been reckoned by whom they have been deceived" [BENGEL].
