Commentary on John 1:6

Theological / Devotional

Sent from God. In these dramatic words the evangelist affirms the divine origin of the Baptist’s witness concerning the Messiah (see on John 1:23; cf. on Amos 7:14, 15; John 4:34).

John. That is, John the Baptist. John the evangelist never refers to himself by name. See on Matt. 3:1-12; Luke 3:1-18. For the meaning of the name see on Luke 1:13.
