Church Fathers on John 10:38

At this speech, I and My Father are one, the Jews could not restrain their rage, but ran to take up stones, after their hardhearted way: Then the Jews took up stones again to stone Him.

Augustine · 4th century

The heretics now, as unbelieving and rebellious against our Lord in heaven, show their impious hatred by the stones, i.e. the words they cast at Him; as if they would drag Him down again from His throne to the cross.

Hilary of Poitiers · 4th century

Our Lord remonstrates with them; Many good works have I showed you from My Father, strewing that they had no just reason for their anger.

Theophylact · 11th century
