Barnes New Testament Notes

By Albert Barnes

THE GOSPEL ACCORDING TO JOHN - Chapter 12 - Verse 25

Verse 25. He that loveth his life, &c. This was a favorite principle, a sort of axiom with the Lord Jesus, which he applied to himself as well as to his followers. See Barnes "Mt 10:39".

See Barnes "Lu 9:24".

{x} "loveth his life" Mt 10:39; 16:25; Mr 8:35; Lu 9:24; 17:33
