This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Therefore doth my Father love me, because I lay down my life, etc. - As the highest act of the Son’s love to the Father was the laying down of His life for the sheep at His “commandment,” so the Father’s love to Him as His incarnate Son reaches its consummation, and finds its highest justification, in that sublimest and most affecting of all acts.
that I might take it again - His resurrection-life being indispensable to the accomplishment of the fruit of His death.
