Context — The Father and the Son

20The Father loves the Son and shows Him all He does. And to your amazement, He will show Him even greater works than these. 21For just as the Father raises the dead and gives them life, so also the Son gives life to whom He wishes.

22Furthermore, the Father judges no one, but has assigned all judgment to the Son,

23so that all may honor the Son just as they honor the Father. Whoever does not honor the Son does not honor the Father who sent Him. 24Truly, truly, I tell you, whoever hears My word and believes Him who sent Me has eternal life and will not come under judgment. Indeed, he has crossed over from death to life.

John 5:22 Summary

[This verse means that God the Father has given Jesus, the Son, the authority to judge everyone, as it says in John 5:22. This is because the Father wants all people to honor the Son just as they honor the Father, and by giving the Son this authority, He is showing the Son's equality and divine nature, similar to what is described in Hebrews 1:8-10. This is important because it shows that God is a God of love and justice, and that Jesus is the one who will ultimately judge all people, as stated in Acts 17:31. By putting our faith in Jesus, we can be saved from judgment and have eternal life, as seen in John 3:16-18.]

Gill's Exposition on John 5:22

For the Father judgeth no man,.... That is, without the Son; which is another proof of their equality: for that he does judge is certain; he is the Judge of the whole earth; he is God that judgeth in

Matthew Poole's Commentary on John 5:22

Alone he judgeth no man, he judgeth no man but by the Son, no man without the Son; but committed all judgment in the administration of the mediatory kingdom in the church to his Son, and by his Son will judge the world at the last day.

Trapp's Commentary on John 5:22

22 For the Father judgeth no man, but hath committed all judgment unto the Son: Ver. 22. The Father judgeth no man] viz. The Father alone, but by the Son, to whom all judicatory power is committed.

Ellicott's Commentary on John 5:22

(22) For the Father judgeth no man.—Better, For not even doth the Father judge any man; and if not the Father, to whom judgment belongs, then none other but the Son to whom He hath committed all judgment. To judge (comp. John 5:29) is the opposite of to quicken in the previous verse. The fact that the Son hath power to judge is correlative with His power to quicken whom He will. The spiritual life given to, and received by, some (John 5:24), is a separation from, and a judgment of, others. The eternal life which shall be given to some, shall be the eternal separation from, and exclusion of, others. The reason why judgment is committed to the Son is given in John 5:27 as resulting from His humanity. It is stated here as resulting from His divinity. It is that this power, like the quickening power of Joh 5:21, should lead all to give to the Son honour equal to that which they render to the Father. Again, this relation is urged against those who professed to honour God, and as a proof of it were seeking to kill His Son. That Sonship, expressing at once subordination and unity, necessarily involved the Fatherhood. To reject Him was to reject the Father who sent Him. (Comp. John 5:24; John 5:30; John 5:36-37.)

Adam Clarke's Commentary on John 5:22

Verse 22. The Father judgeth no man] This confirms what he had said before, John 5:17; John 5:19, that the Father acts not without the Son, nor the Son without the Father; their acts are common, their power equal.

Cambridge Bible on John 5:22

22. For the Father judgeth no man] Rather, For not even doth the Father (to Whom judgment belongs) judge any man. The Son therefore has both powers, to make alive whom He will, and to judge: but the second is only the corollary of first. Those whom He does not will to make alive are by that very fact judged, separated off from the living, and left in the death which they have chosen. He does not make them dead, does not slay them. They are spiritually dead already, and will not be made alive. Here, as in John 3:17-18, the judgment is one of condemnation; but this comes from the context, not from the word.hath committed] Or, given; there is no reason for varying the common rendering.

Barnes' Notes on John 5:22

Judgeth no man - Jesus in these verses is showing his “equality with God.” He affirmed John 5:17 that he had the same power over the Sabbath that his Father had; in John 5:19, that he did the same

Whedon's Commentary on John 5:22

22. The Father—In his primitive essence. Judgeth no man—The manifestive act of judgment is performed by his Son; and even by that Son as Son of man, as well as Son of God.
