Search the scriptures; for in them you think you have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me.
All Commentaries on John 5:39 Go To John 5
Irenaeus of Lyons
AD 202
Wherefore also John does appropriately relate that the Lord said to the Jews: "Ye search the Scriptures, in which ye think ye have eternal life; these are they which testify of me. And ye are not willing to come unto Me, that ye may have life."
