Commentary on John 20:29
Christ's response to Thomas creates a beatitude: 'blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed'. This includes all subsequent believers who trust based on testimony, not sight. Faith based on evidence (Thomas's demand) is legitimate but lesser than faith resting on the word of Christ. This concludes John's purpose statement (20:31)—his Gospel provides sufficient testimony for belief without physical sight of the risen Christ.
