John 5:22-23 to Genesis 18:25

NT Text: John 5:22-23

OT Source(s):

• Genesis 18:25 (God as Judge)
• Judges 11:27 (Lord as Judge)
• Psalms 2:2 (Messiah's role subordinate in judgment)

Source: Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

Reference Type: Allusion

Connection Method(s): Longitudinal Theme + Contrast

Significance: Judgment is God's exclusive domain. Messiah in Second Temple literature remains in background regarding judgment. Jesus' claim to equal honor amounts to claim to worship—God's glory (Isaiah 42:8; 48:11) not compromised by honor given to Son.
