Contextual Overview

³⁸ I speake that whiche I haue seene with my father: and ye do that whiche ye haue seene with your father. ³⁹ They aunswered, and saide vnto him: Abraham is our father. Iesus saith vnto them: Yf ye were Abrahams childre, ye woulde do the workes of Abraham. ⁴⁰ But now ye go about to kyll me, a ma that hath tolde you the trueth, which I haue heard of god: this did not Abraha. ⁴¹ Ye do the deedes of your father. Then said they to him: We be not borne of fornication, we haue one father, euen God. ⁴² Iesus saide vnto them: Yf God were your father, truely ye woulde loue me: For I proceaded foorth, and came from God: neither came I of my selfe, but he sent me. ⁴³ Why do ye not knowe my speache? euen because ye cannot heare my word. ⁴⁴ Ye are of your father the deuyll, and the lustes of your father wyll ye do. He was a murtherer from the begynnyng, and abode not in the trueth: because there is no trueth in hym. When he speaketh a lye, he speaketh of his owne: For he is a lyer, and the father of the same thyng. ⁴⁵ And because I tel you the trueth, therfore ye beleue me not.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And because I tell you the truth,.... And no lie, the whole truth of the Gospel, and particularly the truth of his divine sonship:

ye believe me not; to such an infatuation and judicial blindness were they give up, to disbelieve him, because he told the truth, and to believe a lie, that they might be damned; which showed them to be the children of the devil, and under his power and influence.
