Joh 5:19, 30-31, 12:49-50 | Family | STEP | Of himself ; in opposition to, or without the concurrence of the Father, which was the crime with which they charged him. He denied the charge, and asserted, that instead of opposition, as they contended, there was between him and the Father the most perfect agreement in plan, will, and operation. These also doeth the Son ; there is oneness of operation.

John 5:19

Of himself; in opposition to, or without the concurrence of the Father, which was the crime with which they charged him. He denied the charge, and asserted, that instead of opposition, as they contended, there was between him and the Father the most perfect agreement in plan, will, and operation.

These also doeth the Son; there is oneness of operation.

John 5:30-31

Of mine own self; in opposition to, and without the concurrence of the Father.

I hear; from my Father. The idea is, that he dwells in the Father's bosom, and hears and knows all his counsels.

Not mine own will; not to exalt myself, or build up a separate interest, but to honor the Father by doing his will. Of myself; concerning myself, without any accompanying testimony from God.

Not true; not to be received as valid.

John 12:49-50

Of myself; not of my own authority merely, but by the authority and appointment of the Father. Chap Joh 7:16-18. His commandment; the message which he has commanded me to deliver to men.

Is life everlasting; to them who believe and obey it.
