*And spoke of him*, rather, “and he spoke of Him,” for this clause does not depend upon the preceding “when.” It is a statement that it was of Christ Isaias spoke the words just quoted. 42. Verumtamen et ex 42. However many of the chief principibus multi crediderunt men also believed in him: but in eum: sed propter pharisaeos because of the Pharisees they non confitebantur, ut e did not confess _him_, that synagoga non eiicerentur: they might not be cast out of the synagogue. 42. See above on ix. 22. 43. Dilexerunt enim gloriam 43. For they loved the glory hominum magis quam gloriam of men, more than the glory of Dei. God. 44. Iesus autem clamavit, et 44. But Jesus cried, and said: dixit: Qui credit in me, non He that believeth in me, doth credit in me sed in eum qui not believe in me, but in him misit me. that sent me. 44. These words of our Lord recorded in the remainder of this chapter seem to have been spoken on a subsequent day of Holy Week (see verse 36); but on what precise day, it is difficult to determine. *Doth not believe in me* is the Hebrew way of saying: doth not _so much_ believe in Me, as in Him that sent Me. Compare Mark ix. 36. 45. Et qui videt me, videt eum 45. And he that seeth me, qui misit me. seeth him that sent me. 45. In these words Christ declares His unity of nature with the Father. “Sensus est de visione corporali, non quod Deus oculo corporeo videatur immediate, et per se, sed mediante humanitate, cui Divina substantia Patris et Filii est unita” (Tolet.). 46. Ego lux in mundum veni: ut 46. I am come a light into the omnis qui credit in me, in world; that whosoever tenebris non maneat. believeth in me, may not remain in darkness. 46. *Darkness* here means unbelief and sin. 47. Et si quis audierit verba 47. And if any man hear my mea, et non custodierit, ego words and keep them not: I do non iudico eum, non enim veni not judge him: for I came not ut iudicem mundum, sed ut to judge the world, but to salvificem mundum. save the world. 47. *I do not judge him*; _i.e._, I do not _condemn_ him. Compare iii. 17; viii. 15, 50. At his _first_ coming Christ did not come to condemn, but to save. 48. Qui spernit me, et non 48. He that despiseth me, and accipit verba mea, habet qui receiveth not my words, hath iudicet eum: sermo quem one that judgeth him: the word locutus sum, ille iudicabit that I have spoken, the same eum in novissimo die. shall judge him in the last day. 48. *Hath one that judgeth him*; namely, the Father (viii. 50). Hence the sense of the verse is that he that despiseth Me ... hath one that judgeth him _even now_; and moreover, on the last day My words shall rise in judgment against him.
