John 8:41 - Forerunner Commentary

John 8:41

39 They answered and said to Him, ^a“Abraham is our father.” Jesus said to them, ^b“If you were Abraham’s children, you would do the works of Abraham.

40 ^aBut now you seek to kill Me, a Man who has told you the truth ^bwhich I heard from God. Abraham did not do this.

41 You do the deeds of your father.” Then they said to Him, “We were not born of fornication; ^awe have one Father—God.”

42 Jesus said to them, ^a“If God were your Father, you would love Me, for ^bI proceeded forth and came from God; ^cnor have I come of Myself, but He sent Me.

43 ^aWhy do you not understand My speech? Because you are not able to listen to My word.

44 ^aYou are of your father the devil, and the ^bdesires of your father you want to ^cdo. He was a murderer from the beginning, and ^ddoes not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaks a lie, he speaks from his own resources, for he is a liar and the father of it.
