SEV Biblia, Chapter 14:8

Le dice Felipe: Seor, mustranos el Padre, y nos basta.

Clarke's Bible Commentary - John 14:8

Verse 8. Show us the
Father] As if he had said, We have seen and adored thee, and our happiness will be complete if thou show us the Father. The demand of Philip was similar to that made by Moses, Exod. xxxiii. 18. He wished to see the glory of God. In Peter, James, or John, this would have been inexcusable; but Philip had not seen the transfiguration on the mount. The Jewish history is full of the manifestations which God made of himself, and especially when he gave the law. As Christ was introducing a new law, Philip wished to have an additional manifestation of God.

John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 8.
Philip saith to him, Lord , etc.] Another of his disciples addresses him in a reverend and becoming manner, as Thomas before had done, calling him Lord, and saying to him, show us the Father, and it sufficeth us: he speaks in the name of them all, seems to own their ignorance of the Father, and expresses their desire of seeing him: shew us the Father ; it was a corporeal sight of him he asked for; such a sight of the glory of God as Moses desired, and the elders of Israel had at Mount Sinai; and signifies, that if this could be obtained, it would give them full satisfaction: and it sufficeth us ; we shall be no more uneasy at thy departure from us; we shall have no doubt about thy Fathers house, and the many mansions in it; or of thyself, as the way unto it, and of our everlasting abode with thee in it; we shall sit down easy and contented, and trouble time no more with questions about this matter.

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 1-11 - Here are three words, upon any of which stress may be laid. Upon the word
troubled. Be not cast down and disquieted. The word heart. Le your heart be kept with full trust in God. The word your. Howeve others are overwhelmed with the sorrows of this present time, be no you so. Christ's disciples, more than others, should keep their mind quiet, when everything else is unquiet. Here is the remedy against thi trouble of mind, "Believe." By believing in Christ as the Mediato between God and man, we gain comfort. The happiness of heaven is spoke of as in a father's house. There are many mansions, for there are man sons to be brought to glory. Mansions are lasting dwellings. Chris will be the Finisher of that of which he is the Author or Beginner; i he have prepared the place for us, he will prepare us for it. Christ is the sinner's Way to the Father and to heaven, in his person as God manifest in the flesh, in his atoning sacrifice, and as our Advocate He is the Truth, as fulfilling all the prophecies of a Saviour believing which, sinners come by him the Way. He is the Life, by whose life-giving Spirit the dead in sin are quickened. Nor can any man dra nigh God as a Father, who is not quickened by Him as the Life, an taught by Him as the Truth, to come by Him as the Way. By Christ, a the Way, our prayers go to God, and his blessings come to us; this is the Way that leads to rest, the good old Way. He is the Resurrectio and the Life. All that saw Christ by faith, saw the Father in Him. I the light of Christ's doctrine, they saw God as the Father of lights and in Christ's miracles, they saw God as the God of power. The holiness of God shone in the spotless purity of Christ's life. We ar to believe the revelation of God to man in Christ; for the works of the Redeemer show forth his own glory, and God in him.
