John 5:17
The Bible in John Chapter 5 Verse 17 says:
But Jesus answered them, My Father worketh even until now, and I work.
Interpretation of John Chapter 5 Verse 17
In this verse, Jesus is responding to the Jewish leaders who questioned him for healing a man on the Sabbath. Jesus explains to them that even though it is the Sabbath, his Father is still working and that he is also still working. This is to remind the leaders that they should not limit God’s power because of their own religious rules. Jesus is asserting that He is doing God’s work, which is why he was able to heal the man on the Sabbath. He also makes it clear that He and His Father are one and the same — He is God Incarnate.
