Verse 36 Sanctified; consecrated to the work, viz., of redemption. In the reply of our Savior contained in this and in the John 10:34,35, we observe that he neither affirms nor denies the charge advanced against him by the Pharisees, (John 10:33,) of making himself divine. He shows that his language is to be justified, on any supposition which may be made in regard to his character.
