“Iesus answered, If I honour myselfe, my honour is nothing: it is my Father that honoureth me, of whom ye say, that he is your God:”
1611 King James Version (KJV)
8:54 If I honour myself - Referring to their words, Whom makest thou thyself?
Joh 8:54 If I honour myself, my honour is nothing. They had just asked: "Whom makest thou thyself"? (Joh 8:53). The Father, who honoreth him, will settle that question by his resurrection from the dead and exaltation.
