John 14:28 - Coke's Commentary on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

For my Father is greater than I.— That is, "than I am, considered in my mediatorial capacity."Thesewords afforded a strong argument for the proper Divinity of our Lord; for had he been a mere man, or even a creature of the highest order, the comparison would have been foolish and impertinent.

John 14:28

28 Ye have heard how I said unto you, I go away, and come again unto you. If ye loved me, ye would rejoice, because I said, I go unto the Father: for my Father is greater than I.
