!7th Tract on John
Since John was the friend of the Bridegroom, (iii. 29,) he sought not his own glory, but bare witness to the truth. Would he that his disciples should remain with him rather than that they should follow the Lord? Nay, he showed his disciples Whom they should follow. They thought that he himself was the Lamb; but he saith Why wait ye on me? I am not the Lamb. Behold the Lamb of God! '*' This was He of Whom he had already said above (29) Behold the Lamb of God! And what use to us is the Lamb of God? Behold the Lamb of God, saith John, Which taketh away the sin of the world. And the two disciples heard him speak, and they followed Jesus.
