This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Who quickeneth all things (tou zōogonountos ta panta). Present active participle of zōogoneō (zōogonos, from zōos, genō), late word to give life, to bring forth alive, in N.T. only here and Act 7:19. See 1Sa 2:6.
Before Pontius Pilate (epi Pontiou Peilatou). Not “in the time of,” but “in the presence of.”
Witnessed (marturēsantos). Note martureō, not homologeō as in 1Ti 6:12. Christ gave his evidence as a witness to the Kingdom of God. Evidently Paul knew some of the facts that appear in John 18.
