He that comes from above is above all: he that is of the earth is earthly, and speaks of the earth: he that comes from heaven is above all.
All Commentaries on John 3:31 Go To John 3
George Leo Haydock
AD 1849
He that cometh from above, meaning Christ. He that is of the earth, meaning himself, is from the earth, is earthly, is but a frail and infirm man; and so speaketh as from the earth: this seems rather the sense, than that he speaketh of, or concerning the earth. See the Greek text. (Witham)
