John 8:38
King James Version
10 Jun 2026
“I speak that which I have seen with my Father: and ye do that which ye have seen with your father.”
πατήρ
When Jesus teaches His disciples to pray, He begins with the most radical word imaginable — Father. In the ancient world, approaching God as Father was almost unthinkable. Jesus opens the door and says: this is how you come. Not as a subject before a king. As a child before a Father who already knows what you need.
