NASB | John 5:19 ¶ Therefore Jesus answered and was saying to them, "Truly, truly, I say to you, the Son can do nothing of Himself, unless it is something He sees the Father doing; for whatever the Father does, these things the Son also does in like manner. |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | John 5:19 ¶ So Jesus answered them by saying, "I assure you and most solemnly say to you, the Son can do nothing of Himself [of His own accord], unless it is something He sees the Father doing; for whatever things the Father does, the Son [in His turn] also does in the same way. |
Subject: Fatherof4, What is the Greek word? |
Bible Note: What's BAG? OK.. so let's say "all the tribes of the earth" means nations. Does that mean we are talking about the Planet, or (more likely) the Roman Empire? "every tribe and language and people and nation" appears to be a very inclusive statement to our Western 21st Century ears... however, in Acts 2:5 we learn that "Now there were staying in Jerusalem God-fearing Jews from every nation under heaven". Which I believes sheds some light on what is meant in Rev 5:9... Luke and John are both talking about the Jews. |
