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: Generation or Race? |
Bible Note: Tim, Wouldn't Jesus have said "that generation" if he meant some generation in the future? The preterist interpretation is the only one consistent with Matthew 16 when Jesus speaks of "some standing here" not tasting death before the coming of the Kingdom. |
