Context of John 14:10
8Philip said to Him, “Master, show us the Father, and it is enough for us.” 9Yeshua said to him, “Have I been with you for so long a time, and you haven’t come to know Me, Philip? He who has seen Me has seen the Father. How can you say, ‘Show us the Father’? Don’t you believe that I am in the Father and the Father is in Me? The words I say to you, I do not speak on My own; but the Father dwelling in Me does His works. 11Believe Me that I am in the Father and the Father is in Me—or at least believe because of the works themselves. 12“Amen, amen I tell you, he who puts his trust in Me, the works that I do he will do; and greater than these he will do, because I am going to the Father.

Commentaries on John 14:10
- Adam Clarke Bible Commentary · v. 10I am in the Father, and the Father in me? - We are essentially one; and those who have seen me have seen him who sent me. He doeth the works - We are not only one in nature, but one also in operation. The works which I have done bear witness of the infinite perfection of my nature. Such miracles as I have wrought could only be performed by unlimited power.Read the comment
- Barnes’ Notes on the Bible · v. 10I am in the Father - See the notes at John 10:38. The words that I speak - See the notes at John 7:16-17. The Father that dwelleth in me - Literally, “The Father remaining in me.” This denotes most intimate union, so that the works which Jesus did might be said to be done by the Father. It implies a more intimate union than can subsist between a mere man and God. Had Jesus been a mere man, like the prophets, he would have said, “The Father who sent or…Read the comment
- Tyndale Open Study Notes · v. 10Jesus made surprising and powerful claims about himself (10:30, 37–38). However, true faith recognizes the close union between Jesus and God the Father. To believe in Jesus is to trust that he truly reveals and represents the Father.Read the comment
- Jamieson–Fausset–Brown Commentary · v. 8-128-12. The substance of this passage is that the Son is the ordained and perfect manifestation of the Father, that His own word for this ought to His disciples to be enough; that if any doubts remained His works ought to remove them (see on Joh 10:37); but yet that these works of His were designed merely to aid weak faith, and would be repeated, nay exceeded, by His disciples, in virtue of the power He would confer on them after His departure. His miracles…Read the comment
