John 8:50 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

Christ very often reminds them of this, that in what he spake and did, he sought not his own honour and reputation; which both obviated an objection they might make against him, and also convinced them of his truth and sincerity in what he did. But, saith he, though I seek not my own honour, yet there is one who cometh himself in my honour and glory; and you must expect that he should judge and condemn you for all your hard speeches which you have spoken against me.

John 8:50

50 And I seek not mine own glory: there is one that seeketh and judgeth.
