This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Glory from men (doxan para anthrōpōn). Mere honour and praise Jesus does not expect from men (Joh 5:34). This is not wounded pride, for ambition is not Christ’s motive. He is unlike the Jews (Joh 5:44; Joh 12:43; Mat 6:1.) and seeks not his own glory, but the glory and fellowship of the Father (Joh 1:14; Joh 2:11; Joh 7:18). Paul did not seek glory from men (1Th 2:6).
