John 1:47

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

Jesus saw Nathanael coming to him, and saith of him, Behold an Israelite indeed, in whom is no guile!

Then said Jesus to those Jews that believed on him: If you continue in my word, you are my disciples indeed,

For he is not a Jew who is one outwardly, nor is that circumcision which is outward in the flesh:

It is not possible that the word of God has failed; for they are not all Israel who are of Israel.

For we are the circumcision, who worship God in spirit, and rejoice in Christ Jesus, and have no confidence in the flesh;

Therefore, laying aside all malice, and all guile, and hypocrisies, and envyings, and all evil speakings,

And in their mouth was found no guile; for they are blameless.

If any one will do his will, he shall know with respect to the teaching, whether it is of God, or I speak of myself.
