This Chapter Verse Commentaries:
18 No man hath seen God at any time; the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared him.
Ver. 18. The only begotten Son] In the year of grace 1520, Michael Servetus, a Spaniard, taught that there is no real generation or distinction in God, and was therefore worthily burnt at Geneva, in the year 1555. He would not recant; and yet feeling the fire, could not with patience endure it, but kept a hideous roaring till his life was exhausted, crying out to the beholders to dispatch him with a sword. (Bellarm. i.; de Christo, i.; Calvin Opusc.)
He hath, declared him]
