- John 3:13 Only Christ can teach us heavenly things for no man ascendeth, etc.
- John 3:13 That is, hath any spiritual light and understanding, or ever had, but only that Son of God, which came down to us.
- John 3:13 Whereas he is said to have come down from heaven, that must be understood of his Godhead, and of the manner of his conception: for Christ’s birth upon the earth was heavenly, and not earthly, for he was conceived by the holy Ghost.
- John 3:13 That which is proper to the divinity of Christ, is here spoken of whole Christ, to give us to understand that he is but one person, wherein two natures are united, and this kind of speech men call, the communicating of proprieties.
