This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
napkin. See Joh_11:44.
about = upon. Greek. epi. App-104.
with. Greek. meta. App-104.
wrapped together = rolled, or coiled round and round. Greek. entuliseo. Used elsewhere, only in Mat_27:59. Luk_23:53, of the linen cloth. Here it implies that the cloth had been folded round the head as a turban is folded, and that it lay still in the form of a turban. The linen clothes also lay exactly as they were when swathed round the body. The Lord had passed out of them, not needing, as Lazarus (Joh_11:44), to be loosed. It was this sight that convinced John (Joh_20:8).
in = into. Greek. eis. App-104.
a place by itself = one place apart.
