“Verily, verily, I say unto you, If a man keep my saying, he shall never see death.”
John 8:51 (KJV)
Commentary on John 8:51
This promise—'if a man keep my saying, he shall never see death'—doesn't deny physical death but promises eternal life. 'Keep my saying' means obey and treasure Christ's words. 'Never see death' uses emphatic double negative in Greek ('ou me'), guaranteeing immunity from spiritual death. This outrages Jews who cite Abraham and prophets who died, missing Christ's point: He speaks of eternal life.
