John 8:19

Then they began asking ¹  him, “Who is your father?” Jesus answered, “You do not know either me or my Father. If you knew me you would know my Father too.” ² 

Jer 22:16; Jer 24:7; Mt 11:25; Lu 10:21,22; Joh 1:10; Joh 1:18; Joh 7:28; Joh 8:54,55; Joh 10:14,15; Joh 14:6-9; Joh 15:21; Joh 16:3; Joh 17:3,25,26; 1Co 15:34; 2Co 4:4-6; Ga 4:9; Eph 1:17; Col 1:10; Col 1:15; Heb 1:3; 1Jo 5:20; 2Jo 1:9

¹ tn Grk “Then they were saying to him.” The imperfect verb has been translated with ingressive force here because of the introduction of a new line of questioning by the Pharisees. Jesus had just claimed his Father as a second witness; now his opponents want to know who his father is.

² sn If you knew me you would know my Father too. Jesus’ reply is based on his identity with the Father (see also John 1:18; 14:9).
