For the Father Himself loves you This phrase emphasizes the direct and personal love of God the Father for the believers. The Greek word for "loves" here is "φιλεῖ" (philei), which denotes a deep, affectionate love. This is not a distant or abstract love but a personal and intimate one. Historically, the Jewish understanding of God was often one of reverence and awe, sometimes emphasizing His transcendence. However, Jesus reveals a more intimate relationship, where God the Father is directly involved and emotionally invested in the lives of His followers. This love is not mediated through others but is direct, highlighting the personal relationship believers have with God. because you have loved Me and have believed that I came from God And have believed that I came out from God.--The reading is uncertain. Several of the better MSS. read, ". . . that I came forth from the Father." (Comp. the first words of the next verse and John 13:3.) The perfect tenses represent their love and faith as completed, and continuing in the present. It is striking that the order of the words makes faith' follow love. This order may be chosen to mark emphatically the connection between the Father's love for the disciples and their love for the Son; but it also suggests that their convictions were the result of having their hearts opened by love so that they received the truth. Verse 27. - For the Father himself loveth you (φιλεῖ), with love of a fatherly affection, such as mine to you, because ye have loved me (the perfect preterit, in the sense of the realized past in the present which shall then be), and have believed that I came forth from the side of (παρὰ) the Father. In their belief of this transcendent fact is the hope of the world. It was wrought in them by the strengthening pulses of a deepening love, and to this love God himself responds with a personal tender affection that encourages boundless prayer. The disciple and lover of Jesus, having Jesus in the heart, united to him by living faith, will find in Christ that there is a perpetual pledge of reciprocal love between the Father and himself. Christ will not (ἐρωτᾶν) ask the Father, because his entire position as Mediator establishes a continual appeal, is a perpetual ἔντευξις, a continuous drawing near and appeal to God on our account, a pledge and guarantee of our own fellowship with and access to the Father. Our English word "intercession," though apparently corresponding with the Latin and with the Greek word, does not now represent its original meaning. That meaning is by no means equivalent to the hind of prayer which is here excluded (Trench, 'Syn. N.T.,' § 51.).Parallel Commentaries ... Greek Forγὰρ (gar) Conjunction Strong's 1063: For.
