20For athe Father loves the Son, and bshows Him all things that He Himself does; and He will show Him greater works than these, that you may marvel.
21For as the Father raises the dead and gives life to them,aeven so the Son gives life to whom He will.
22For the Father judges no one, but ahas committed all judgment to the Son,
23that all should honor the Son just as they honor the Father. aHe who does not honor the Son does not honor the Father who sent Him.
Life and Judgment Are Through the Son
24“Most assuredly, I say to you, ahe who hears My word and believes in Him who sent Me has everlasting life, and shall not come into judgment, bbut has passed from death into life.
25Most assuredly, I say to you, the hour is coming, and now is, when athe dead will hear the voice of the Son of God; and those who hear will live.

John 5:22-23
The Jews recognized that a real son is in fact equal to his father. And Jesus agreed!
God has committed judgment to the Son for the purpose that all should honor the Son with the same respect and worship that they honor the Father with. Why? Because they are both equal as God. And God is worthy of worship.
