44 Jesus summed it all up when he cried out, "Whoever believes in me, believes not just in me but in the One who sent me. 45 Whoever looks at me is looking, in fact, at the One who sent me. 46 I am Light that has come into the world so that all who believe in me won't have to stay any longer in the dark.
Matthew Henry's Commentary on John 12:44-46
Commentary on John 12:44-50
(Read John 12:44-50)
Our Lord publicly proclaimed, that every one who believed on him, as his true disciple, did not believe on him only, but on the Father who sent him. Beholding in Jesus the glory of the Father, we learn to obey, love, and trust in him. By daily looking to Him, who came a Light into the world, we are more and more freed from the darkness of ignorance, error, sin, and misery; we learn that the command of God our Saviour is everlasting life. But the same word will seal the condemnation of all who despise it, or neglect it.
