‏ John 8:15-16

v. 15: Jesus continues, “You judge by human standards; I pass judgment on no one. But if I do judge, my decisions are true, because I am not alone. I stand with the Father, who sent me” (John 8:15-16 a). Jesus does not judge people in the same way humans do. If he does judge, his judgment is perfect, because it comes from God.

v. 16: “In your own Law it is written that the testimony of two witnesses is true. I am one who testifies for myself; my other witness is the Father, who sent me” (John 8:17-18 b). Jesus points out that his claims are supported by God the Father, so they meet the requirements of the law.
