# Connecting Statement:

|
Jesus asks Philip a question and then he continues to speak to all of his disciples.
|
|
|
|
# Do you not believe ... in me?
|
|
|
|
This remark appears in the form of a question to emphasize Jesus's words to Philip. Alternate translation: "You really should believe ... in me." (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-rquestion]])

|
# Father
|
|
|
|
This is an important title for God. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/guidelines-sonofgodprinciples]])

|
# The words that I say to you I do not speak from my own authority
|
|
|
|
"What I am telling you is not from me" or "The words I tell you are not from me"
|
|
|
|
# The words that I say to you
|
|
|
|
Here "you" is plural. Jesus is now speaking to all of his disciples.
