Yohanes 5:22

5:22 Furthermore, the Father does not judge ¹  anyone, but has assigned ²  all judgment to the Son,

Yohanes 12:5

12:5 “Why wasn’t this oil sold for three hundred silver coins ³  and the money ⁴  given to the poor?”

Yohanes 16:29

16:29 His disciples said, “Look, now you are speaking plainly ⁵  and not in obscure figures of speech! ⁶ 

[5:22]  ¹ tn Or “condemn.”

[5:22]  ² tn Or “given,” or “handed over.”

[12:5]  ³ tn Grk “three hundred denarii.” The denarius was a silver coin worth a standard day’s wage, so the value exceeded what a laborer could earn in a year (taking into account Sabbaths and feast days when no work was done).

[12:5]  ⁴ tn The words “the money” are not in the Greek text, but are implied (as the proceeds from the sale of the perfumed oil).

[16:29]  ⁵ tn Or “openly.”

[16:29]  ⁶ tn Or “not in parables.” or “not in metaphors.”

[16:29]  sn How is the disciples’ reply to Jesus now you are speaking plainly and not in obscure figures of speech to be understood? Their claim to understand seems a bit impulsive. It is difficult to believe that the disciples have really understood the full implications of Jesus’ words, although it is true that he spoke to them plainly and not figuratively in 16:26-28. The disciples will not fully understand all that Jesus has said to them until after his resurrection, when the Holy Spirit will give them insight and understanding (16:13).
