'Long' in the Bible

When Jesus saw him lying there, and knew that he had been sick for a long time, he asked him, "Do you want to be made well?"

The Jews therefore came around him and said to him, "How long will you hold us in suspense? If you are the Christ, tell us plainly."

Jesus said to him, "Have I been with you such a long time, and do you not know me, Philip? He who has seen me has seen the Father. How do you say, 'Show us the Father?'
