Discovery BoxJohn 8:14 
Context8:14 Jesus answered, 1 “Even if I testify about myself, my testimony is true, because I know where I came from and where I am going. But you people 2 do not know where I came from or where I am going. 3
John 14:21
Context14:21 The person who has my commandments and obeys 4 them is the one who loves me. 5 The one 6 who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I will love him and will reveal 7 myself to him.”
1 tn Grk “Jesus answered and said to them.”
2 tn The word “people” is supplied in the translation to indicate that the pronoun (“you”) and verb (“do not know”) in Greek are plural.
3 sn You people do not know where I came from or where I am going. The ignorance of the religious authorities regarding Jesus’ origin works on two levels at once: First, they thought Jesus came from Galilee (although he really came from Bethlehem in Judea) and second, they did not know that he came from heaven (from the Father), and this is where he would return. See further John 7:52.
4 tn Or “keeps.”
5 tn Grk “obeys them, that one is the one who loves me.”
6 tn Grk “And the one.” Here the conjunction καί (kai) has not been translated to improve the English style.
7 tn Or “will disclose.”
