This Chapter Verse Commentaries:

25. βάλω … βάλω. In both places, put: see on Joh 5:7. The negation is in the strongest form, οὐ μὴ πιστ., I will in no wise believe; and the condition is stated without hope: not, ‘If I see, I will believe,’ but, ‘Except I see, I will not.’ This obstinacy appears also in the repetitions in the asseveration. Τόπον for the second τύπον is an early corruption. It is asked, as in Joh 20:8, ‘Believe what?’ The answer is the same with even more certainty; that Jesus was risen.
