Commentary on John 5:37
Jesus declares that the Father Himself has borne witness about Him, likely referencing the voice at His baptism (Matthew 3:17) and the Father's testimony through works and Scripture. The condemnation 'Ye have neither heard his voice at any time, nor seen his shape' indicates spiritual deafness and blindness. Natural faculties cannot perceive divine revelation apart from grace.
