Yohanes 6:38

6:38 For I have come down from heaven not to do my own will but the will of the one who sent me.

Yohanes 18:2

18:2 (Now Judas, the one who betrayed him, knew the place too, because Jesus had met there many times ¹  with his disciples.) ² 

Yohanes 20:29

20:29 Jesus said to him, “Have you believed because you have seen me? Blessed are the people ³  who have not seen and yet have believed.” ⁴ 

[18:2]  ¹ tn Or “often.”

[18:2]  ² sn This is a parenthetical note by the author.

[20:29]  ³ tn Grk “are those.”

[20:29]  ⁴ tn Some translations treat πιστεύσαντες (pisteusante") as a gnomic aorist (timeless statement) and thus equivalent to an English present tense: “and yet believe” (RSV). This may create an effective application of the passage to the modern reader, but the author is probably thinking of those people who had already believed without the benefit of seeing the risen Jesus, on the basis of reports by others or because of circumstantial evidence (see John 20:8).
