John 5:39 in Context — John 5
37 Y el que me envió, el Padre, él ha dado testimonio de mí. Ni nunca habéis oído su voz, ni habéis visto su parecer.
38 Ni tenéis su palabra permanente en vosotros; porque al que él envió, á éste vosotros no creéis.
39 Escudriñad las Escrituras, porque á vosotros os parece que en ellas tenéis la vida eterna; y ellas son las que dan testimonio de mí.
40 Y no queréis venir á mí, para que tengáis vida.
41 Gloria de los hombres no recibo.
