John 10:25 Commentary - Garner-Howes Baptist Commentary

1) "Jesus answered them, I told you," (apekrithe autois ho lesous eipon humin) "Jesus replied, I told you all," who I was and am, again and again, Joh 5:19-20; Joh 5:43; Joh 6:38-40.

2) "And ye believed not:” (kai ou pisteuete) "And you do not believe,'' Joh 5:37; Joh 5:28; Joh 8:21; Joh 8:24.

3) ''The works I do in my Father's name," (ta erga ha ego poio, en to onomati tou patros mou) "The works which I do in my Father's name," by my Father's authority, are more reliable evidence than the plainest words that I speak, Joh 5:36; Joh 17:4-5.

4) "They bear witness of me." (tauta marturei peri emou) "These (works) witness concerning me," regarding my Divinity and my Divine attributes, thus it was not necessary for Him to claim the name of Messiah, in the material sense they were looking for as unsaved Jews, Rom 10:1-4.
