John 4:36

4:36 The one who reaps receives pay ¹  and gathers fruit for eternal life, so that the one who sows and the one who reaps can rejoice together.

John 7:36

7:36 What did he mean by saying, ²  ‘You will look for me ³  but will not find me, and where I am you cannot come’?”

John 17:25

17:25 Righteous Father, even if the world does not know you, I know you, and these men ⁴  know that you sent me.

[4:36]  ¹ tn Or “a reward”; see L&N 38.14 and 57.173. This is something of a wordplay.

[7:36]  ² tn Grk “What is this word that he said.”

[7:36]  ³ tn Grk “seek me.”

[17:25]  ³ tn The word “men” is not in the Greek text but is implied. The translation uses the word “men” here rather than a more general term like “people” because the use of the aorist verb ἔγνωσαν (egnwsan) implies that Jesus is referring to the disciples present with him as he spoke these words (presumably all of them men in the historical context), rather than to those who are yet to believe because of their testimony (see John 17:20).
