Yohanes 13:3
Konteks13:3 Because Jesus 1 knew that the Father had handed all things over to him, 2 and that he had come from God and was going back to God,
Yohanes 1:51
Konteks1:51 He continued, 3 “I tell all of you the solemn truth 4 – you will see heaven opened and the angels of God ascending and descending on the Son of Man.” 5
[13:3] 1 tn Grk “Because he knew”; the referent (Jesus) has been specified in the translation for clarity.
[13:3] 2 tn Grk “had given all things into his hands.”
[1:51] 3 tn Grk “and he said to him.”
[1:51] 4 tn Grk “Truly, truly, I say to you.”
[1:51] 5 sn The title Son of Man appears 13 times in John’s Gospel. It is associated especially with the themes of crucifixion (3:14; 8:28), revelation (6:27; 6:53), and eschatological authority (5:27; 9:35). The title as used in John’s Gospel has for its background the son of man figure who appears in Dan 7:13-14 and is granted universal regal authority. Thus for the author, the emphasis in this title is not on Jesus’ humanity, but on his heavenly origin and divine authority.
