Commentaries:
Robertson's Word Pictures (NT)
Who quickeneth all things (tou zwogonountov ta panta). Present active participle of zwogonew (zwogonov, from zwos, genw), late word to give life, to bring forth alive, in N.T. only here and Acts 7:19. See I Samuel 2:6.
Before Pontius Pilate (epi Pontiou Peilatou). Not "in the time of," but "in the presence of."
Witnessed (marturhsantov). Note marturew, not omologew as in verse I Timothy 6:12. Christ gave his evidence as a witness to the Kingdom of God. Evidently Paul knew some of the facts that appear in John 18.
