Bible Question:
In this verse, the Greek word for "Father" is PATHR (see Strong's #G3962). The Greek word for "God" is in John 16:27 and 30 is THEOS. Both words are different in both spelling and definition. With those definitions in mind, who is the apparently mysterious "Father" to whom Jesus referred in this 16:28? |
Bible Answer: Hi ParsonPat. You asked. "who is the apparently mysterious "Father" to whom Jesus referred in this 16:28?" I think you will find the answer in the verse bellow. John 5:18 For this reason therefore the Jews were seeking all the more to kill Him, because He not only was breaking the Sabbath, but also was calling God His own Father, making Himself equal with God. I hope that this is of help. OldPilgrim. |
