Commentaries:
Jamieson, Fausset, and Brown
the Father hath not left me alone; for I do always those things that please him, etc.—that is, To you, who gnash upon Me with your teeth, and frown down all open appearance for Me, I seem to stand uncountenanced and alone; but I have a sympathy and support transcending all human applause; I came hither to do My Father's will, and in the doing of it have not ceased to please Him; therefore is He ever by Me with His approving smile, His cheering words, His supporting arm.
When ye have lifted up the Son of man—The plainest intimation He had yet given in public of the manner and the authors of His death.
then shall ye know that I am he, etc.—that is, find out, or have sufficient evidence, how true was all He said, though they would be far from owning it.
