Poole - “Our Saviour must not be understood here to distinguish Himself from His Father in respect of His divine being, for so He and His Father are one; but in respect of His office, as He was sent, and His Father was He who sent Him.” John 8:19 So they were saying to Him, "Where is Your Father?" Jesus answered, "You know neither Me nor My Father; if you knew Me, you would know My Father also." You know neither Me nor My Father: Jn 8:54-55 Jn 1:10 Jn 7:28 Jn 10:14-15 Jn 15:21 Jn 16:3 Jer 22:16 24:7 1Co 15:34 Ga 4:9 Col 1:10 1Jn 5:20 if you knew Me, Jn 1:18 Jn 14:6-9 Jn 17:3,25,26 Mt 11:25 Lu 10:21,22 2Co 4:4-6 Eph 1:17 Col 1:15 Heb 1:3 2Jn 1:9 John 8 - Multiple Sermons and Commentaries Related Passages: John 8:54-55 Jesus answered, “If I glorify Myself, My glory is nothing; it is My Father who glorifies Me, of whom you say, ‘He is our God’; 55 and you have not come to know Him, but I know Him; and if I say that I do not know Him, I will be a liar like you, but I do know Him and keep His word. John 1:10 He was in the world, and the world was made through Him, and the world did not know Him. John 7:28 Then Jesus cried out in the temple, teaching and saying, “You both know Me and know where I am from; and I have not come of Myself, but He who sent Me is true, Whom you do not know. John 15:21 “But all these things they will do to you for My name’s sake, because they do not know the One Who sent Me. John 16:3 “These things they will do because they have not known the Father or Me. John 1:18 No one has seen God at any time; the only begotten God who is in the bosom of the Father, He has explained Him. John 14:6-9 Jesus *said to him, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father but through Me. 7 “If you had known Me, you would have known My Father also; from now on you know Him, and have seen Him.” 8 Philip *said to Him, “Lord, show us the Father, and it is enough for us.” 9Jesus *said to him, “Have I been so long with you, and yet you have not come to know Me, Philip? He who has seen Me has seen the Father; how can you say, ‘Show us the Father’? John 17:3; 25; 26 “This is eternal life, that they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent. 17:25 “O righteous Father, although the world has not known You, yet I have known You; and these have known that You sent Me; 17:26 and I have made Your name known to them, and will make it known, so that the love with which You loved Me may be in them, and I in them.” PHARISEES PRETEND TO BE WISE BUT ARE IGNORANT OF GOD! So (oun) - Therefore. Consequently. This introduces a logical result or inference from the preceding passage(s). Based on Jesus' explanation that He met the criteria of two witness, one being His Father. They were saying to Him, "Where is Your Father?" - Saying is in the imperfect tense which gives us a vivid picture of one Pharisee after another asking Him this question. Their question is not likely sincere, but is more likely asked with a sneer and with sarcasm. Remember, these guys are not trying to edified by His teaching, but are now determined to murder Him! The implication of their question is if Jesus' Father is to serve as the second Witness, then let Him present Himself so these charlatans can interrogate Him! Swindoll on Where is Your Father? - The Pharisees responded cynically, “Where is Your Father?” They knew the apparent circumstances of His birth (Jn 8:41) and that Joseph was dead. The question was a backhanded slur, delivered at the level of an inside joke. Perhaps the insult came with a wink and a knowing look. (Insights on John) Steven

Poole - John 8:30. Believing on him is not here to be understood strictly of saving faith; but rather, of some preparations toward it: they began to believe that he was the true Messias, and to have more honourable thoughts than they had of him: that this was all, will appear from what we find in the following verses; and believing often signifieth no more in the New Testament than a light assent given to some propositions of the gospel relating to Christ. (Bolding added) CSB Apologetics Bible - In Jn 8:30–31, various listeners seem to have believed in Jesus, but by the end of the chapter they were ready to stone him. As Jn 8:31 stresses, appearance of belief must be matched by perseverance in following Jesus and his teaching. Much of the belief attested to in Jn 8:30 was probably superficial. There may also have been a narrowing of the audience Jesus was addressing, starting in Jn 8:48—“the Jews” here may include some of the authorities who had never claimed to believe in him at any level.
