A Commentary, Critical, Practical, and Explanatory on the Old and New Testaments, by Robert Jamieson, A.R. Fausset and David Brown [1882]
And there are many other things which Jesus did--(Compare Joh 20:30-31).

if . . . written every one, I suppose--an expression used to show that what follows is not to be pressed too far.

even the world itself would not hold the books, &c.--not a mere hyperbolical expression, unlike the sublime simplicity of this writer, but intended to let his reader know that, even now that he had done, he felt his materials so far from being exhausted, that he was still running over, and could multiply "Gospels" to almost any extent within the strict limits of what "Jesus did." But in the limitation of these matchless histories, in point of number, there is as much of that divine wisdom which has presided over and pervades the living oracles, as in their variety and fulness.

18 [2532] I am he that liveth [2198], and [2532] was [1096] dead [3498]; and [2532], behold [2400], I am [1510] alive [2198] for [1519] evermore [165] [165], Amen [281]; and [2532] have [2192] the keys [2807] of hell [86] and [2532] of death [2288].

23 And [2532] in [1722] that [1565] day [2250] ye shall [3756] ask [2065] me [1691] nothing [3762]. Verily [281], verily [281], I say [3004] unto you [5213], [3754] Whatsoever [3745] [302] ye shall ask [154] the Father [3962] in [1722] my [3450] name [3686], he will give [1325] it you [5213].

38 Jesus [2424] answered [611] him [846], Wilt thou lay down [5087] thy [4675] life [5590] for [5228] my sake [1700]? Verily [281], verily [281], I say [3004] unto thee [4671], The cock [220] shall [5455] not [3364] crow [5455], till [2193] [3739] thou hast denied [533] me [3165] thrice [5151].
21 When Jesus [2424] had [2036] thus [5023] said [2036], he was troubled [5015] in spirit [4151], and [2532] testified [3140], and [2532] said [2036], Verily [281], verily [281], I say [3004] unto you [5213], that [3754] one [1520] of [1537] you [5216] shall betray [3860] me [3165].
20 Verily [281], verily [281], I say [3004] unto you [5213], He that receiveth [2983] whomsoever [1437] [5100] I send [3992] receiveth [2983] me [1691]; and [1161] he that receiveth [2983] me [1691] receiveth [2983] him that sent [3992] me [3165].
16 Verily [281], verily [281], I say [3004] unto you [5213], The servant [1401] is [2076] not [3756] greater than [3187] his [846] lord [2962]; neither [3761] he that is sent [652] greater than [3187] he that sent [3992] him [846].
24 Verily [281], verily [281], I say [3004] unto you [5213], Except [3362] a corn [2848] of wheat [4621] fall [4098] into [1519] the ground [1093] and die [599], it [846] abideth [3306] alone [3441]: but [1161] if [1437] it die [599], it bringeth forth [5342] much [4183] fruit [2590].
7 Then [3767] said [2036] Jesus [2424] unto them [846] again [3825], Verily [281], verily [281], I say [3004] unto you [5213], [3754] I [1473] am [1510] the door [2374] of the sheep [4263].
1 Verily [281], verily [281], I say [3004] unto you [5213], He that entereth [1525] not [3361] by [1223] the door [2374] into [1519] the sheepfold [4263] [833], but [235] climbeth up [305] some other way [237], the same [1565] is [2076] a thief [2812] and [2532] a robber [3027].
58 Jesus [2424] said [2036] unto them [846], Verily [281], verily [281], I say [3004] unto you [5213], Before [4250] Abraham [11] was [1096], I [1473] am [1510].
51 Verily [281], verily [281], I say [3004] unto you [5213], If [1437] a man [5100] keep [5083] my [1699] saying [3056], he shall [2334] never [3364] [1519] [165] see [2334] death [2288].
34 Jesus [2424] answered [611] them [846], Verily [281], verily [281], I say [3004] unto you [5213], [3754] Whosoever [3956] committeth [4160] sin [266] is [2076] the servant [1401] of sin [266].
53 Then [3767] Jesus [2424] said [2036] unto them [846], Verily [281], verily [281], I say [3004] unto you [5213], Except [3362] ye eat [5315] the flesh [4561] of the Son [5207] of man [444], and [2532] drink [4095] his [846] blood [129], ye have [2192] no [3756] life [2222] in [1722] you [1438].
47 Verily [281], verily [281], I say [3004] unto you [5213], He that believeth [4100] on [1519] me [1691] hath [2192] everlasting [166] life [2222].
32 Then [3767] Jesus [2424] said [2036] unto them [846], Verily [281], verily [281], I say [3004] unto you [5213], Moses [3475] gave [1325] you [5213] not [3756] that bread [740] from [1537] heaven [3772]; but [235] my [3450] Father [3962] giveth [1325] you [5213] the true [228] bread [740] from [1537] heaven [3772].
26 Jesus [2424] answered [611] them [846] and [2532] said [2036], Verily [281], verily [281], I say [3004] unto you [5213], Ye seek [2212] me [3165], not [3756] because [3754] ye saw [1492] the miracles [4592], but [235] because [3754] ye did eat [5315] of [1537] the loaves [740], and [2532] were filled [5526].
25 Verily [281], verily [281], I say [3004] unto you [5213], [3754] The hour [5610] is coming [2064], and [2532] now [3568] is [2076], when [3753] the dead [3498] shall hear [191] the voice [5456] of the Son [5207] of God [2316]: and [2532] they that hear [191] shall live [2198].
24 Verily [281], verily [281], I say [3004] unto you [5213], [3754] He that heareth [191] my [3450] word [3056], and [2532] believeth [4100] on him that sent [3992] me [3165], hath [2192] everlasting [166] life [2222], and [2532] shall [2064] not [3756] come [2064] into [1519] condemnation [2920]; but [235] is passed [3327] from [1537] death [2288] unto [1519] life [2222].
19 Then [3767] answered [611] Jesus [2424] and [2532] said [2036] unto them [846], Verily [281], verily [281], I say [3004] unto you [5213], The Son [5207] can [1410] [3756] do [4160] nothing [3762] of [575] himself [1438], but [3362] what [5100] he seeth [991] the Father [3962] do [4160]: for [1063] what things soever [3739] [302] he [1565] doeth [4160], these [5023] also [2532] doeth [4160] the Son [5207] likewise [3668].
11 Verily [281], verily [281], I say [3004] unto thee [4671], We speak [2980] that [3754] [3739] we do know [1492], and [2532] testify [3140] that [3739] we have seen [3708]; and [2532] ye receive [2983] not [3756] our [2257] witness [3141].
5 Jesus [2424] answered [611], Verily [281], verily [281], I say [3004] unto thee [4671], Except [3362] a man [5100] be born [1080] of [1537] water [5204] and [2532] of the Spirit [4151], he cannot [3756] [1410] enter [1525] into [1519] the kingdom [932] of God [2316].
3 Jesus [2424] answered [611] and [2532] said [2036] unto him [846], Verily [281], verily [281], I say [3004] unto thee [4671], Except [3362] a man [5100] be born [1080] again [509], he cannot [1410] [3756] see [1492] the kingdom [932] of God [2316].
51 And [2532] he saith [3004] unto him [846], Verily [281], verily [281], I say [3004] unto you [5213], Hereafter [737] [575] ye shall see [3700] heaven [3772] open [455], and [2532] the angels [32] of God [2316] ascending [305] and [2532] descending [2597] upon [1909] the Son [5207] of man [444].
42 And [2532] whosoever [3739] [1437] shall give to drink [4222] unto one [1520] of these [5130] little ones [3398] a cup [4221] of cold [5593] water only [3440] in [1519] the name [3686] of a disciple [3101], verily [281] I say [3004] unto you [5213], he shall in no wise [3364] lose [622] his [846] reward [3408].
23 But [1161] when [3752] they persecute [1377] you [5209] in [1722] this [5026] city [4172], flee ye [5343] into [1519] another [243]: for [1063] verily [281] I say [3004] unto you [5213], Ye shall [5055] not [3364] have gone over [5055] the cities [4172] of Israel [2474], till [2193] the Son [5207] of man [444] be [302] come [2064].
15 Verily [281] I say [3004] unto you [5213], It shall be [2071] more tolerable [414] for the land [1093] of Sodom [4670] and [2532] Gomorrha [1116] in [1722] the day [2250] of judgment [2920], than [2228] for that [1565] city [4172].
10 When [1161] Jesus [2424] heard [191] it, he marvelled [2296], and [2532] said [2036] to them that followed [190], Verily [281] I say [3004] unto you [5213], I have [2147] not [3761] found [2147] so great [5118] faith [4102], no, not [3761] in [1722] Israel [2474].
16 Moreover [1161] when [3752] ye fast [3522], be [1096] not [3361], as [5618] the hypocrites [5273], of a sad countenance [4659]: for [1063] they disfigure [853] their [846] faces [4383], that [3704] they may appear [5316] unto men [444] to fast [3522]. Verily [281] I say [3004] unto you [5213], [3754] They have [568] their [846] reward [3408].
5 And [2532] when [3752] thou prayest [4336], thou shalt [2071] not [3756] be [2071] as [5618] the hypocrites [5273] are: for [3754] they love [5368] to pray [4336] standing [2476] in [1722] the synagogues [4864] and [2532] in [1722] the corners [1137] of the streets [4113], that [3704] they may [302] be seen [5316] of men [444]. Verily [281] I say [3004] unto you [5213], [3754] They have [568] their [846] reward [3408].
2 Therefore [3767] when [3752] thou doest [4160] thine alms [1654], do [4537] not [3361] sound a trumpet [4537] before [1715] thee [4675], as [5618] the hypocrites [5273] do [4160] in [1722] the synagogues [4864] and [2532] in [1722] the streets [4505], that [3704] they may have glory [1392] of [5259] men [444]. Verily [281] I say [3004] unto you [5213], They have [568] their [846] reward [3408].
26 Verily [281] I say [3004] unto thee [4671], Thou shalt [1831] by no means [3364] come [1831] out thence [1564], till [2193] [302] thou hast paid [591] the uttermost [2078] farthing [2835].
18 For [1063] verily [281] I say [3004] unto you [5213], Till [2193] [302] heaven [3772] and [2532] earth [1093] pass [3928], one [1520] jot [2503] or [2228] one [3391] tittle [2762] shall in no wise [3364] pass [3928] from [575] the law [3551], till [2193] [302] all [3956] be fulfilled [1096].
15 Cursed [0779] be the man [0376] that maketh [06213] any graven [06459] or molten image [04541], an abomination [08441] unto the LORD [03068], the work [04639] of the hands [03027] of the craftsman [02796], and putteth [07760] it in a secret [05643] place. And all the people [05971] shall answer [06030] and say [0559], Amen [0543].
16 Cursed [0779] be he that setteth light [07034] by his father [01] or his mother [0517]. And all the people [05971] shall say [0559], Amen [0543].
17 Cursed [0779] be he that removeth [05253] his neighbour's [07453] landmark [01366]. And all the people [05971] shall say [0559], Amen [0543].
18 Cursed [0779] be he that maketh the blind [05787] to wander [07686] out of the way [01870]. And all the people [05971] shall say [0559], Amen [0543].
19 Cursed [0779] be he that perverteth [05186] the judgment [04941] of the stranger [01616], fatherless [03490], and widow [0490]. And all the people [05971] shall say [0559], Amen [0543].
20 Cursed [0779] be he that lieth [07901] with his father's [01] wife [0802]; because he uncovereth [01540] his father's [01] skirt [03671]. And all the people [05971] shall say [0559], Amen [0543].
21 Cursed [0779] be he that lieth [07901] with any manner of beast [0929]. And all the people [05971] shall say [0559], Amen [0543].
22 Cursed [0779] be he that lieth [07901] with his sister [0269], the daughter [01323] of his father [01], or the daughter [01323] of his mother [0517]. And all the people [05971] shall say [0559], Amen [0543].
23 Cursed [0779] be he that lieth [07901] with his mother in law [02859]. And all the people [05971] shall say [0559], Amen [0543].
24 Cursed [0779] be he that smiteth [05221] his neighbour [07453] secretly [05643]. And all the people [05971] shall say [0559], Amen [0543].
25 Cursed [0779] be he that taketh [03947] reward [07810] to slay [05221] an innocent [05355] person [05315] [01818]. And all the people [05971] shall say [0559], Amen [0543].
26 Cursed [0779] be he that confirmeth [06965] not all the words [01697] of this law [08451] to do [06213] them. And all the people [05971] shall say [0559], Amen [0543].
22 And this water [04325] that causeth the curse [0779] shall go [0935] into thy bowels [04578], to make thy belly [0990] to swell [06638], and thy thigh [03409] to rot [05307]: And the woman [0802] shall say [0559], Amen [0543], amen [0543].
28 Whither shall we go up [05927]? our brethren [0251] have discouraged [04549] our heart [03824], saying [0559], The people [05971] is greater [01419] and taller [07311] than we; the cities [05892] are great [01419] and walled up [01219] to heaven [08064]; and moreover we have seen [07200] the sons [01121] of the Anakims [06062] there.
11 The tree [0363] grew [07236], and was strong [08631], and the height [07314] thereof reached [04291] unto heaven [08065], and the sight [02379] thereof to the end [05491] of all [03606] the earth [0772]:
33 And there we saw [07200] the giants [05303], the sons [01121] of Anak [06061], which come of the giants [05303]: and we were in our own sight [05869] as grasshoppers [02284], and so we were in their sight [05869].
31 But [1161] these [5023] are written [1125], that [2443] ye might believe [4100] that [3754] Jesus [2424] is [2076] the Christ [5547], the Son [5207] of God [2316]; and [2532] that [2443] believing [4100] ye might have [2192] life [2222] through [1722] his [846] name [3686].
