John 8:13 - Albert Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Bible Comments

Thou bearest record of thyself - Thou art a witness for thyself, or in thy own case. See John 5:31. The law required two witnesses in a criminal case, and they alleged that as the only evidence which Jesus had was his own assertion, it could not be entitled to belief.

Is not true - Is not worthy of belief, or is not substantiated by sufficient evidence.

John 8:13

13 The Pharisees therefore said unto him, Thou bearest record of thyself; thy record is not true.
