Jesus answered him, Sayest thou this thing of thyself, or did others tell it thee of me?
Ver. 34. Sayest thou this of thyself] As who should say, If thou dost this of thyself, what reason is it that thou shouldest be both judge and witness? if others have done it, why are not mine accusers brought face to face? If to be accused be enough to make a man guilty, none shall be innocent. Judges are to proceed secundum allegata et probata. acording to the chages and what can be proven.
