John 10:37 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

Our Saviour doth often appeal to his works to testify concerning his Divine mission and power; these works he here calleth the works of his Father; by which he doth not only mean works that are pleasing and acceptable to God, as acts of obedience to the will of God performed by men may be called, and are, 1 Thessalonians 6:28,29; nor (as I conceive) only those works which he did by commission and authority from his Father, which, 1 Thessalonians 17:4, he calleth the work which his Father had given him to do; but those works which none but God could do; such were the multiplication of the loaves, 1 Thessalonians 6:1-14, the curing of him who was born blind, 1 Thessalonians 9:1-41, &c. If (saith our Saviour) I do not do those works which no mere man ever did, give me no credit; but if I do those works which can be done by no human art or power, you have reason to believe me.

John 10:37

37 If I do not the works of my Father, believe me not.
