約翰福音 8章32節 到 8章32節     上一筆  下一筆
 {And ye shall know the truth} (kai gn(9373)esthe t(886e)
al(8874)heian). Truth is one of the marks of Christ ( 1:14 ) and
Jesus will claim to Thomas to be the personification of truth
( 14:6 ). But it will be for them knowledge to be learned by
doing God's will ( 7:17 ). The word is from al(8874)h(8873) (a
privative and l(8874)h(935c), to conceal, unsealed, open). See also
verses  40,44,45 . {And the truth shall make you free} (kai h(880a)al(8874)heia eleuther(9373)ei humas). Future active indicative of
eleuthero(935c), old verb from eleutheros (from erchomai, to go
where one wishes and so free). One of Paul's great words for
freedom from the bondage of the law ( Ro 6:18  Ga 5:1 ). The
freedom of which Jesus here speaks is freedom from the slavery of
sin as Paul in  Ro 8:2 . See  Joh 8:36 . This freedom is won
alone by Christ ( 8:36 ) and we are sanctified in truth
( 17:19 ). In  1:17  truth is mentioned with grace as one of the
marks of the gospel through Christ. Freedom (intellectual, moral,
spiritual) is only attainable when we are set free from darkness,
sin, ignorance, superstition and let the Light of the World shine
on us and in us.
