Jamieson, Fausset, and Brown
Ye are from beneath; I am from above—contrasting Himself, not as in John 3:31, simply with earthborn messengers of God, but with men sprung from and breathing an opposite element from His, which rendered it impossible that He and they should have any present fellowship, or dwell eternally together. (Again see on John 7:33; also see on John 8:44).
Then said Jesus again unto them, I go my way, etc.—(See on John 7:33).
