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: Scriptural Humility |
Bible Note: "Humility in Scripture means, not pretending to be worthless and refusing positions of responsibility, but knowing and keeping the place God has appointed for one. Being humble is a matter of holding on to God's arrangement, whether it means the high exposure of leadership (Moses was humble as a leader, Num 12:3) or the obscurity of subservience. When Jesus stated matter-of-factly that He was 'humble in heart' (Matt 11:29), He meant that He was conscientiously following the Father’s plan for his earthly life." --J. I. Packer |
