John Gill (1697–1771) · Exposition of the Old and New Testament · 18th-century historical commentary
“All things are delivered to me of my Father, etc.] In some ancient copies, and in the Syriac, Persic, and Ethiopic versions, before these words, are read, “and turning to his disciples he said, all things”, etc. and no man knoweth who the Son is; what is his name, his nature, his perfections and glory; and how he is the Son of God, his only begotten Son: but the Father; who begat him, and whose own, and proper Son he is: and who the Father is; what are his perfections, purposes, grace, greatness, mind, and will: but the Son; who is of him, and lay in his bosom: and he to whom the Son will reveal him: in himself, by his Spirit; (See Gill on “<401127>Matthew 11:27”).”
