Bible Comments

I came forth from the Father, &c.— "To conclude. The true and proper meaning of my discourse to you at this time, and particularly of the expression which appeared so obscure to you, is, that as I came forth from the Father, and was commissioned by the Father, and came into the world to reveal his will to mankind; so, having finished all that work,I now leave the world, and return to the Father, from whom I came."

John 16:28

28 I came forth from the Father, and am come into the world: again, I leave the world, and go to the Father.
