The Father Revealed

^7 (A)“If you had known Me, you would have known My Father also; and from now on you know Him and have seen Him.”

¹⁵ He is ^(A)the image of the invisible God, ^(B)the firstborn over all creation. ¹⁶ For ^(C)by Him all things were created that are in heaven and that are on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or ^(D)dominions or ^[a]principalities or ^[b]powers. All things were created ^(E)through Him and for Him. ^17 (F)And He is before all things, and in Him ^(G)all things consist.

¹⁹ Then they said to Him, “Where is Your Father?”

Jesus answered, ^(A)“You know neither Me nor My Father. ^(B)If you had known Me, you would have known My Father also.”

^22 (A)All^[a] things have been delivered to Me by My Father, and ^(B)no one knows who the Son is except the Father, and who the Father is except the Son, and the one to whom the Son wills to reveal Him.”

⁸ For I have given to them the words ^(A)which You have given Me; and they have received them, ^(B)and have known surely that I came forth from You; and they have believed that ^(C)You sent Me.

Jesus Prays for His Disciples

^6 (A)“I have ^[a]manifested Your name to the men ^(B)whom You have given Me out of the world. ^(C)They were Yours, You gave them to Me, and they have kept Your word.

² that their hearts may be encouraged, being knit together in love, and attaining to all riches of the full assurance of understanding, to the knowledge of the mystery of God, ^[a]both of the Father and of Christ, ^3 (A)in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.

^26 (A)And I have declared to them Your name, and will declare it, that the love ^(B)with which You loved Me may be in them, and I in them.”
