John 3:12 If I have told you earthly things, and you believe not, how shall you believe, if I tell you of heavenly things? Heavenly things, being represented unto us in an earthly form (ver. 8), come clothed to us with our own notions. We can see the sun better when reflected in the water of a vase than in the firmament; and we can inter. pret heaven's language best when it speaks to us in the language of earth. (T. Manton.) Parallel Verses KJV: If I have told you earthly things, and ye believe not, how shall ye believe, if I tell you of heavenly things? |
