Commentaries and Concordances

GSB:

8:18 {d} I am one that bear witness of myself, and the Father that sent me beareth witness of me.
(d) The Godhead is plainly distinguished from the manhood, or else there would not be two witnesses: for the accused party is not taken as a witness.

PNT:

8:18 The Father... beareth witness of me. By the prophets, by the works that Jesus does, by his voice at the baptism, and by John the Baptist.

MHC:

8:17-20 If we knew Christ better, we should know the Father better. Those become vain in their imaginations concerning God, who will not learn of Christ. Those who know not his glory and grace, know not the Father that sent him. The time of our departure out of the world, depends upon God. Our enemies cannot hasten it any sooner, nor can our friends delay it any longer, than the time appointed of the Father. Every true believer can look up and say with pleasure, My times are in thy hand, and better there than in my own. To all God's purposes there is a time.
