For the Father judgeth no man Rather, For not even doth the Father (to Whom judgment belongs) judge any man. The Son therefore has both powers, to make alive whom He will, and to judge: but the second is only the corollary of first. Those whom He does not will to make alive are by that very fact judged, separated off from the living, and left in the death which they have chosen. He does not make them dead, does not slay them. They are spiritually dead already, and will not be made alive. Here, as in John 3:17-18, the judgment is one of condemnation; but this comes from the context, not from the word.

hath committed Or, given; there is no reason for varying the common rendering.
