He says: "O righteous Father, the world hath not known thee: but I have known thee, and these have known that thou hast sent me." O how little we know of him! He says the world has not known the Father. God forbid that any of those who carry the truth should be destitute of a knowledge of God! O may Christ be able to say of us, "But these have known thee!"

Han siger: "Retfærdige Fader! Verden har ikke kendt dig, men jeg har erkendt dig, og disse har erkendt, at du har sendt mig." O, hvor lidt vi kender ham! Han siger, at verden ikke har kendt Faderen. Gud forbyde, at nogen af dem, der har sandheden, skal være blottet for kundskaben om Gud! O, må Kristus kunne sige om os: "Men disse har kendt dig!"
