My belief 73

John 10
Jesus said:
I and my Father are one.
— John 10:30
But he also said what meant that he and his father are not one.

As the Father knoweth me, even so know I the Father: and I lay down my life for the sheep.
— John 10:15
Therefore doth my Father love me, because I lay down my life, that I might take it again.
— John 10:17
No man taketh it from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This commandment have I received of my Father.
— John 10:18
Jesus answered them, I told you, and ye believed not: the works that I do in my Father’s name, they bear witness of me.
— John 10:25
My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father’s hand.
— John 10:29

N.b.

“My Father is greater than all” means that he is greater than Jesus also.

I and my Father are one.
— John 10:30
It is clear from the that this is a literary expression, and that they are not one.

Jesus answered them, Many good works have I shewed you from my Father; for which of those works do ye stone me?
— John 10:32

  Say ye of him, whom the Father hath sanctified, and sent into the world, Thou blasphemest; because I said, I am the Son of God?
— John 10:36

If I do not the works of my Father, believe me not.
— John 10:37

But if I do, though ye believe not me, believe the works: that ye may know, and believe, that the Father is in me, and I in him.
— John 10:38
They are not Gods.
It is an expression meaning “saints”.

يوحنا ١٠

في هذا الإصحاح أخطر آية في المسيحية وهي:
30 أَنَا وَالآبُ وَاحِدٌ». قالها يسوع.
ولكن فيه أيضا آيات تقول أنه ليس واحدا مع الآب، وهي:

15 كَمَا أَنَّ الآبَ يَعْرِفُنِي وَأَنَا أَعْرِفُ الآبَ.
18 هذِهِ الْوَصِيَّةُ قَبِلْتُهَا مِنْ أَبِي».
17 لِهذَا يُحِبُّنِي الآبُ،
25 اَلأَعْمَالُ الَّتِي أَنَا أَعْمَلُهَا بِاسْمِ أَبِي هِيَ تَشْهَدُ لِي.
29 أَبِي الَّذِي أَعْطَانِي إِيَّاهَا هُوَ أَعْظَمُ مِنَ الْكُلِّ، وَلاَ يَقْدِرُ أَحَدٌ أَنْ يَخْطَفَ مِنْ يَدِ أَبِي.
(ولاحظوا أن عبارة هو أعظم من الكل التي وصف بها يسوع الآب معناها أنه أعظم من يسوع أيضا).
أما آية:
30 “أَنَا وَالآبُ وَاحِدٌ”:
فواضح من الآيات السابقة عليها والآيات الآتية بعدها أنها تعبيرأدبي وأنهما ليسا واحدا:
وهي:
32 «أَعْمَالاً كَثِيرَةً حَسَنَةً أَرَيْتُكُمْ مِنْ عِنْدِ أَبِي».
36 فَالَّذِي قَدَّسَهُ الآبُ وَأَرْسَلَهُ إِلَى الْعَالَمِ، أَتَقُولُونَ لَهُ: إِنَّكَ تُجَدِّفُ، لأَنِّي قُلْتُ: إِنِّي ابْنُ اللهِ؟
37 إِنْ كُنْتُ لَسْتُ أَعْمَلُ أَعْمَالَ أَبِي فَلاَ تُؤْمِنُوا بِي.
38 وَلكِنْ إِنْ كُنْتُ أَعْمَلُ، فَإِنْ لَمْ تُؤْمِنُوا بِي فَآمِنُوا بِالأَعْمَالِ، لِكَيْ تَعْرِفُوا وَتُؤْمِنُوا أَنَّ الآبَ فِيَّ وَأَنَا فِيهِ». 
تعبير أدبي لأن جميع الآيات تدل انهما ليسا واحدا.

كلمة ⲑⲉⲟⲥ:
33 أَجَابَهُ الْيَهُودُ قَائِلِينَ:«لَسْنَا نَرْجُمُكَ لأَجْلِ عَمَل حَسَنٍ، بَلْ لأَجْلِ تَجْدِيفٍ، فَإِنَّكَ وَأَنْتَ إِنْسَانٌ تَجْعَلُ نَفْسَكَ إِلهًا»
34 أَجَابَهُمْ يَسُوعُ: «أَلَيْسَ مَكْتُوبًا فِي نَامُوسِكُمْ: أَنَا قُلْتُ إِنَّكُمْ آلِهَةٌ؟
وهم طبعا ليسوا آلهة، فهو تعبير ادبي ربما معناه “قديسون”.
