This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
Joh 3:32. Μαρτυρεῖ, He testifieth) That is much more weighty than He speaks [λαλεῖ, Joh 3:31].-οὐδείς, no man) So ardently does John desire that Christ should obtain universal authority, that instead of that, which his [John’s] disciples say, all [men come to Him], Joh 3:26, John says, no man [receiveth His testimony]: comp. ch. Joh 12:38, “The saying of Esaias fulfilled, Lord who hath believed our report?” etc.-λαμβάνει, receiveth) A form of faith. There must be a receiving, not a mere bodily coming.
