John 3:14-15

Footnotes

  1. 3:14 Lifted up: in Nm 21:9, Moses simply “mounted” a serpent upon a pole. John here substitutes a verb implying glorification. Jesus, exalted to glory at his cross and resurrection, represents healing for all.
  2. 3:15 Eternal life: used here for the first time in John, this term stresses quality of life rather than duration.
