“Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again. again: or, from above”
John 3:7 (KJV)
Commentary on John 3:7
Christ's emphatic 'Ye must be born again' (Greek 'anothen'—both 'again' and 'from above') stresses the absolute necessity of regeneration, not religious reform. This confronts all human-centered salvation schemes. The universal 'ye' (plural) indicates no one is exempt—even Pharisees need spiritual rebirth. Titus 3:5 echoes this: salvation is 'by the washing of regeneration', not by works.
