Context of John 4:54

52The official asked them at what time his son got better. His servants told him, “The fever left him yesterday evening at seven o’clock.” 53Then the boy’s father realized that it was the same time that Jesus had told him, “Your son will live.” So the official and his entire family became believers. This was the second miracle that Jesus performed after he had come back from Judea to Galilee.

By construing the word , again, with , he came, that confusion which is evident in the common version is entirely removed. Bishop Pearce says: "It seems probable to me…Read the comment
• Matthew Henry Concise Commentary · v. 43-54Verses 43-54 The father was a nobleman, yet the son was sick. Honours and titles are no security from sickness and death. The greatest men must go themselves to God, must become beggars. The nobleman did not stop from his request till he prevailed. But at first he discovered the weakness of his faith in the power of Christ. It is hard to persuade ourselves that distance of time and place, are no hinderance to the knowledge, mercy, and power of our Lord…Read the comment

• Jamieson–Fausset–Brown Commentary · v. 48-5448-54. Except ye see signs, &c.--He did believe, both as his coming and his urgent entreaty show; but how imperfectly we shall see; and our Lord would deepen his faith by such a blunt and seemingly rough answer as He made to Nicodemus.Read the comment
