John 5:26

5:26 For just as the Father has life in himself, thus he has granted the Son to have life in himself,

John 6:9

6:9 “Here is a boy who has five barley loaves and two fish, but what good ¹  are these for so many people?”

John 6:12

6:12 When they were all satisfied, Jesus ²  said to his disciples, “Gather up the broken pieces that are left over, so that nothing is wasted.”

John 12:46

12:46 I have come as a light into the world, so that everyone who believes in me should not remain in darkness.

John 14:29

14:29 I have told you now before it happens, so that when it happens you may believe. ³ 

[6:9]  ¹ tn Grk “but what are these”; the word “good” is not in the Greek text, but is implied.

[6:12]  ¹ tn Grk “he”; the referent (Jesus) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[14:29]  ¹ sn Jesus tells the disciples that he has told them all these things before they happen, so that when they do happen the disciples may believe. This does not mean they had not believed prior to this time; over and over the author has affirmed that they have (cf. 2:11). But when they see these things happen, their level of trust in Jesus will increase and their concept of who he is will expand. The confession of Thomas in 20:28 is representative of this increased understanding of who Jesus is. Cf. John 13:19.
