37: ει ου ποιω τα εργα του πατρος μου μη πιστευετε μοι— edit Textus Receptus
37: If I do not the works of my Father, believe me not.- edit KJV text
37: If I do not the works of my Father, believe me not.— edit Douay text


The works of my Father. The very works that my Father does. See Jn 5:17: "My Father worketh hitherto, and I work."

The works of his Father are those which God only can do. As Jesus did them, it shows that the name "Son of God," implying equality with God, was properly applied to him. This shows conclusively that he meant to be understood as claiming to be equal with God. So the Jews naturally understood him Jn 10:39 and they were left with this impression on their minds.
